C'mon...think guys...I would like to seem more of them without driving my family out with all the shelves. Then...the shelves....there are more law books and my daughter has a room full of VHS movies and over 900 novels in another bedroom. Something has to be done!

    little cart closer to the wall and then add a counter top, just enough to extend out far enough to add two small stools for a breakfast bar. Add shelves above to place the microwave and the other appliance on it. Ikea has some really cool and sturdy shelves to put in that corner. Aside from appliances, you can also add some baskets that can serve as storage too. The trash can can also stay down that end, under the little overhang of countertop (on the left side of the overhang).

Design & Décor: White appliances and white cabinets

I have the old wooden oak cabinets and have wanted to paint them white. But my appliances are also all white and am afraid this will not look right. Too much white. Does anyone have an opinion or possible suggestions on this?

Design & Décor: In New Zealand, botanical artwork on kitchen walls etc is becoming fashionable. Is this also a trend in other countries?

If trendy elsewhere too, in which rooms would you expect this - kitchen / living room / hallway?

  • Need to re-purpose this small shutter for back deck.

Repurposing & Upcycling: I need ideas for a small shutter I need to re-purpose for my deck makeover

I am doing a restyling/makeover of deck with all up-cycled projects. I have a small shutter (half the size of a regular size one). I want to re-purpose it into something useful or as a piece of art for my deck. The theme is retro Americana (Red, White and Blue colors). Any ideas welcome!

vaulted ceiling. The large window is off center. The left side of the room has a huge built in bookcase. The right side of the room has a curved brick wall which leads to the dining room. There is a 1/2 wall brick planter separating the living room from the dining room. I like the brick but am not so sure about the rock. My furniture is Queen Anne style so this is really a challenge for me. I would appreciate suggestions. Thank you
