As one poster suggested above, the fence height restriction is from the ground. Where I live, we routinely berm the ground up to make the fenceline taller. Additionally, "trellises" (anything 'removable') are exempted from the fence height, so you can attach a big ole trellis to the top of a 6' fence. And, I recently saw a post somewhere (pinterest?) where the homeowner bypassed the fence height restriction by setting tall, skinny trees inside horse troughs on large castors (as a gate). In your case, getting some plant material out there might help with what is bound to be a lot of noise.

@Pi, I have the Umbra Bird Bath shower caddy and love it. My favorite thing is that it has holes on the ends to put shampoo bottles upside down, slots for razors and hangers for washcloths. It's bigger than most of these, so holds a ton of stuff. I've had it a couple of years and no rusting so far on the few metal parts. http://www.umbra.com/ustore/product/bird-bath-shower-caddy.store# They have a wooden one, similar, as well.

Loving the coffee/ebony mix. A lot. It's amazing how much better the space looks, compared to the lighter floors. Great job. Can't wait to see more of the progress.

I second the Peekaboo line from CB2 mentioned by DallasStudent13. There's also a "console" that looks to be low and narrow, and on wheels. Or, two of the Peekaboo side tables (which look low enough to serve as coffee tables).

This looks like a big sheet of industrial felt.

While the price does seem high, if one was doing a small accent area, the convenience of having manageable wood planks, and not having to deal with adhesives or many tools is worth a premium (to me). Looks like it's a huge time saver, too. I'd try it.

The World Market ones that someone previously posted about are nice. I got the black/white combo, but they also come in colors. Available online and in stores.

Agree with residentgeek ... A better headline would be, "Two modern desks for your laptop, and a hair more."

Put me on the Friday Night Lights list. Also, West Wing has eight fabulous seasons. The first two are incredible, and the rest hold up well.

Dulcibella, if you check out the link they provided, you can see more images, including the kitchen.
