need advice on building handrail down steps in garage
Comments (0)I need to build a handrail to help my mother get up and down the steps in our garage. We have two steps, plus you step up once to get to the house level. The steps are wood, and the step tread extends out over the base of the step by about 1". Is there a simple way to construct a sturdy handrail that is attached to the wall and to the floor, or do I need to attach it to the steps somehow?...See MoreBig changes in the LR - need advice on next steps
Comments (17)The rug in the before picture is long gone. It was pretty "bossy" and I feel the room improved tremendously once it was removed. With the black background, it was very dark and I'm leaning toward a much lighter look. The room has a northern exposure. I like the rug you posted, Jinx, and the coffee tables. Thanks!!! I feel once I have chosen a rug, choosing a coffee table will be much easier. In my head, I keep going back and forth between a patterned rug as you suggested and a light rug with texture. We love the new windows. The original windows did not open, but now we have casements on either side. I like sitting in the chair near the window and enjoying the breeze. The coffee table is also long gone. It was metal and glass and the corners made me very nervous with our young grandchildren. Even if I end up with another metal and glass table, I'd like to avoid corners. The little side table is still around, but not at our house. My son and DIL are using it right now. I keep going back and forth on chairs - pair or 2 different chairs. Either way, I am considering having an ottoman at one of the chairs. The art over the console was from Crate & Barrel, but I believe it's no longer available....See MoreI need advice on choosing my kitchen flooring please?
Comments (2)A lot of it depends on the style and colors of the home. So if you can, post some pics of the spaces. Tile is fine for the kitchen. As is hardwood. But if your nervous and choose to go with a tile. There are so many options that can work nicely with wood. Again, depends on the style of the space. I always love a checkerboard pattern tile. It’s clean. And matches most everything....See MoreI give up. Need some advice on what to install for our kitchen floor!!
Comments (5)I personally wouldn't put 2 different kinds of hardwood/wood look flooring next to each other. I like herbflavor's suggestion. LVP is softer and warmer than tile. It's not as durable as tile, but you don't have grout, which is a plus in my book. There are tons of tile-look LVPs out there. With white cabinets I would go with a medium dark to darker LVP to provide some depth and contrast. There are LVPs in a tile look in browns, which I think is what you prefer....See MoreBecca
