This is a great debut post! The copy is fun and fresh and the photos are beautiful. Having a Milwaukee blogger will open up opportunities for the rest of Wisconsin, I hope!

This definitely feels like a collector's home and I too am glad to see a different address than Silver Lake. I think I would appreciate it more with different flooring, though. Like sagekitten, I j...

I think everyone else has made good suggestions already. I would just add a note about the mosquitoes. I find that an oscillating fan (not a ceiling fan, but one that is freestanding or set on a ta...

This might be the best post on AT ever. It's much more about the use of space than the decorating. Many brilliant ideas going on here.

Toddler drum set = totally freaks me out. I hope you hide the sticks. The noise would be bad enough in a "normal" house, but with such an open floor plan and the acoustic issues you have mentione...

OK, on the last suggestion in the original post--who has THIRTY outfits, complete with accessories?! I so badly need to get more organized the night before work. Many days I try on at...

This is one of the nicest posts ever on AT. Thank you for sharing your story. And I love your mom's response. I am sure I will face this situation one day when my kids are grown and I hope they wil...

Honestly, I could say the same thing, Rosenatti. It's amazing how we adapt our lives to fit our stuff rather than the other way around. I really, truly believe I could live in a space this small if...

I saw it as tongue in cheek and thematic, so it didn't bother me decor-wise (although it is far from my taste). What does bother me is a "green" home being decorated in such an extravagant way, at ...

So much visual confusion. So little attention to detail and scale and color. So glad AT readers are a discerning bunch.

This is beautiful...would love to see more.

Gorgeous, inside and out.

I know these colors aren't for everybody, but I love them and could totally live in any of those rooms. Color is my salvation during dreary northern winters, and I am always looking to add it where...

This is lovely--unpretentious and comfortable. But the owner's comment about the poor electrical situation and the rocking toilet made me wince a bit. The latter, especially, is one of my biggest d...

No garage, no dishwasher--two things I KNOW (from experience) would make a big difference to my quality of life. Like AKwinter, I live in a cold climate where most people consider it crazy not to h...

saventaro, thank you!!

I'm sorry, but this doesn't look cute to me at all. I suppose it's resourceful and practical, but even a little attention to aesthetics with the clipboards or the hooks would make a big difference.

All the walls in my small kitchen are covered in white, glossy, sort of rustic square tiles. The architect (and previous owner) who redid the space used rounded pieces (I guess they would be called...

Yes, please--MUST know about those chairs. Must have at least three in assorted colors.

For some reason #3 makes me laugh. It's like a cliché of a just-out-of-college single guy's room--especially the art. I think #4 actually belongs to #3's roommate, but lacking the reputation...
