I wouldn't call that upcycling, but it's an interesting reuse. Personally, I think I would be creeped out, though I have eaten in more than one church turned pizza parlor.

Very cool!

Here are a few more examples I love:

I would say yes! People like to gather around the kitchen, while still keeping an eye on the game/movie/music or whatever is going on in the living room. It's a great place to site for breakfast or to drink a glass of wine while someone else is cooking. We just have a mini bar (with no overhang) and some simple backless stools, and we still use this area frequently, especially when we have guests.

Gorgeous! I would LOVE to live in this small space.

Gevalia is programmable, very economical, and uses the cone shaped filters. I had one last about 4-5 years (though I had to replace the carafe once). I would still be using it except my in-laws didn't think it kept the coffee hot enough after brewing (they like their soup and coffee VERY hot), so they recently bought us the pictured Cuisinart model. I think it was $79.99 at Bed/Bath/Beyond and it also works just fine.

We also run ours overnight. It works well for us, because the dinner dishes are washed immediately before food has a chance to really dry on, and then the dishes are ready for a quick 5 minute unload before I leave for work in the morning.

The wall-to-wall closet is gorgeous; it even looks amazing from the living room. Would love to see a complete house tour.

So charming and creative. Love it!

This was deliciously different. We served it with a crunchy baguette and a simple salad of greens with white-wine-vinegar-dijon vinaigrette. Loved the simplicity!
