New Floor Plans.. any feedback is appreciated!!
Comments (11)Thank you for the feedback! pixie_lou - I was planning on having the hallway 6 feet wide but I can make it wider or put the doors on an angle to have them fit within the 6 feet. Also, the exterior dimension of my garage would 40 feet so I was hoping to have the room for a 4 car garage, using either two 18 or 16 foot doors. I like open concept but you make a really good point about the foyer general layout, I do need to add some walls for the reasons you mentioned. Michelle1973- You make a good point, I thought about reversing the kitchen and living/dining area to have the kitchen closer to the garage. I ended up keeping the kitchen where it is because I like the idea of having French doors off the kitchen that open onto a deck. I should have mentioned this earlier but because this is a corner lot, I won't have a traditional backyard. I'll have enough room on the kitchen side of the house for a backyard area with a deck....See MoreNear "final" plan - feedback is greatly appreciated
Comments (2)Thank you. I've added links below the inline pictures to download larger pictures. I know that's not ideal but I can't seem to get them to show large enough to read text/dimensions. I will try again to resize the photos to make them more legible inline....See MoreBasement Floorplan- Feedback greatly appreciated
Comments (17)Sorry for the slang - I mean sliding glass door. Is your basement walk out or daylight window only? We use our garage stair daily due to odd ball work schedules and things. Our interior stair is a u-shaped though and I can't imagine trying to move a couch, weight/gym equipment or something larger like that using it. The garage access is a straight shot with wider doorways. To your point though yes there is a cost for sure. I like your newest version. :)...See MoreGarden plan posted for feedback - appreciate any assistance!
Comments (19)I think I would put all the tomatoes into their own plot(s) instead of spreading them out. You can interplant with basil, leeks, marigolds, other herbs in the corners of those beds if you wanted to. I wouldn’t put basil in the middle of three tomato plants – it would be very difficult to get in there to harvest it when the tomatoes are 5, 6, 7 feet high! Having the tomatoes planted next to each other would allow you to take advantage of staking/supporting them together.. I was happy last year when I could tie plants to their neighbor’s cages. Similarly, you may want to plant the bean plots right next to each other instead of spaced with radishes…for similar reasons (utilizing supports and getting to the produce). As far as canning tomatoes… we had a very successful canning season last year by freezing the tomatoes whole, right off the vine, in gallon ziplocks and canning the sauce in one marathon session at the end of the season. This of course requires freezer space (last year we filled up both our kitchen freezer and our garage side by side… this year we are contemplating a deep freezer). This method has its advantage in that peeling frozen tomatoes is as simple as rinsing them under hot water for all of 3 seconds, the skin slides right off....See MoreK Johnson
