Would you like to see a just started furniture re-do?
Comments (22)maire cate, I'm sorry that I missed your question, as I was writing my reply when you asked. I think have most of it out. After the primal scream, I got water and towels right away and scrubbed as hard as I could quickly. That craft paint dries so quickly that I thought I was going to lose three great rugs. There may be a bit left in them, as it's still streaked on the wooden floors, but I hope that 99% of it is gone. Today I caught him chewing something in here and opened his mouth. It was the cap from the paint that he chewed up Sunday. I don't know where he had stashed it, but he can't get it any more....See MoreKitchen Remodel-Layout-Just Getting Started

Comments (14)Upstairs, I want to keep the master and have 3 other bedrooms. I want the two smaller rooms and the bonus room area to be kids rooms, just need the smaller ones a little bigger and the big one a little smaller. There is already a laundry room on the 2nd floor. The library downstairs will be a library/study. I want it a comfy reading area with wall to wall bookshelves for all of our books! It won't be an office. The movie room is just a want- we all love watching movies and it's a fun place for kids to hang out especially at sleep overs and such. It can certainly be cut out if needed. I guess I was thinking we could do it cheaper if we did things ourselves and weren't paying a huge builder's fee. We would basically be doing it for cost on his end. Thanks for the feedback!...See MoreWhat would you change (or not change) about your walk in pantry?
Comments (27)I don't have a walk-in but I love having a spot on the wall in my pantry (a plug) to hang my little dyson stick vac. The rest of my cleaning items (steamer, vacuum, brooms etc) are in a place a little more remote but it's handy having the vac hanging on the charger since that's the one I use at least every day. I would also keep a convenient spot for my step ladder, even though I'm not exactly short, it's still handy to have near the kitchen. My current house is an old farm house [it completely lacks storage] so the few little closets I do have end up storing lots of random stuff so I have drawer for batteries, flashlights, extension cords, tape, random household tools/nails (so I don't have to go out to the detached garage to hang a picture or change the batteries in a kid's toy.) Not saying that is ideal persay, but depending on your situation and floorplan just something to consider. Oldbat's pantry is gorgeous, but I think I'd go insane when nothing was ever put back in it's proper spot! LOL perhaps it's just easier on my anxiety to just have it a free for all to begin with!...See Moresheloveslayouts
