Would you be able to give the dimensions of this bathroom? We have a space that looks to be a similar size that we want to convert into a bathroom and I would love to compare.

It looks great--I love the floating vanity!

LilyC gives great advice--try to chose furniture that sits up off the floor on legs, so that the floor is invisible under the furniture. Then, invest in a good mop/dusting system, as you will want be fighting the dust bunnies.

Use the space up the the ceiling whenever possible--shelves and storage that have a small footprint but are tall can really help in a small space.

As for organization, really think about how you use your house. Where do you like to read your mail? Flip through magazines? Pay bills? Then place storage and trash bins in the places where you will be handling paper and other cluttering items.

Lastly, enjoy the cozy feeling of a small space. Who wants to spend all their time cleaning a 3000 square foot house?

Baking. Cookies, cakes, breads--anything. Love it.

Question: we live in a 70's ranch with the low-ish ceilings that have the popcorn treatment. Removing the popcorn is a major hassle and expense (not to mention a hazard due to asbestos), so we are considering covering them with beadboard. Is that a mistake with lower ceilings? I am concerned it may close the room in (we are planning on keeping the beadboard white and having it in every room for continuity).

Thanks.

My favorite color is green.

Having Light saber fights with my son, playing hide and seek with my daughter and, then, savoring the blissful quiet at 8:30pm when they are both finally asleep.

Curtains--we don't have a single pair of curtains in our house. Halloween costumes for the kids.

When is the right time to put a glaze on meat? So that is gets cooked and smoked, but not burnt?

Can I tell you, this would be perfect in my living room. P.E.R.F.E.C.T.
