Vote: Doors or No Doors from kids bedrooms to Jack N Jill closet
Comments (11)Well, if you can afford that setup, I would plan on the girls each having their own clothes, and simply borrowing if the other sister is ok with it. Having five daughters, I know all about sharing rooms, closets, clothes, bathrooms, etc. For example, my first two were fifteen months apart and were best friends through high school (in the same grade.) However, the younger one was a slob and older onewasn't, and they had different tastes in clothes. The younger was careless with the other's clothes. Her sister would have hated to have to share everything with her. My point is that I would give them each their own closet, since they will likely want to have their own clothes, anyway. Then, they can learn to ask to borrow an item. I also wonder why you are including a tub and shower in a children's bath? Even though the bathroom is a nice size, I believe it will feel cramped. I think I would give each child her own vanity and toilet, and include a shower/tub combination in a separate middle room. And, when your kids are teens, you might regret giving them their own doors to the outside! :)...See MoreFront door choice for a painted door
Comments (6)Your house is a fine one story Colonial Revival. A traditional Cape would have a steeper roof without dormers, no porch, no portico or any classical features like columns or pediments. A good choice would be a paint grade exterior wood panel door from TruStile in Colorado. They have more choices than any other company and it is easy to design a door with their design software.

Comments (31)The closet in my master is 29 inches deep. Then I have 3 other closets upstairs like this in my sons' rooms and the guest rooms. Those closets are 22, 23, and 24 inches deep. I'm standing in front of them now and thinking that if I had shelves on the sides and a bar across connecting them....well, if they were jammed packed like I have some of these closets then it might be annoying trying to move past the hangers to reach the shelves. It depends on how much stuff is in there. Looking at it now, I think I have actual "dead space" above my bar. There is so much room between the shelf above the bar and the ceiling that if I was to change my closet right now I might just keep the bar across and add cubbies above the bar for my bulky sweaters. I really don't find reaching into the side space to be that annoying. I noticed in my husbands closet he has his suits in the side space. He only wears suits at weddings and funerals. He also keeps the ironing board in there. We don't iron often. Apparently I never do bc I just now learned that's where we keep it. Lol. I don't think that little bit of "wasted space" is worth such a huge overhaul. As long as it's lit well and the doors are good (I can't say enough how much of a difference it was going from sliders and bifold doors in my last house to doors that swing open). And we have good lighting in the closet which makes it easier to see all the way into the side space. For the record, I hang 90% of my clothes. I only fold sweaters and undergarments. So having just hanging bar isn't so bad for me....See MoreW/D choices for master bedroom closet
Comments (2)Yes, it is part of an addition that is being constructed. The contractor said he needs to know the brand so he knows where to put the vent....See Moretypeandrun
