I had a similar issue. Luckily there is a narrow space downstairs where I can stash the ladder, For the mops and brooms - some are in view, but in a place that makes sense. Next to the kitchen door to the backyard in the area where the door would be when swung open. The rest? Behind our bathroom door. The door is always open - so unless someone is in the bathroom, no one ever sees it.

OMG that work bench is EXACTLY what I need for my studio! I have been trying to figure out a way to mount pegboard in a way that it causes minimal damage or is somehow not on the wall and this is it!

i don't know that joseph albers would approve of these

If that were my space i would sacrifice that space in the kitchen where most would put a table. Shared meals can be in the living space. Seems like the easiest spot. Otherwise i would cut the living space in 1/2.

target has a roll of premium wrap with the woodgrain they are selling this year similar to the one here

i made a huge investment going Mac in 2007 and now after all my software (full adobe suite) i really can't afford to switch back. or to upgrade. a little stuck here. I have a 2007 MBP....you know...the kind with the definite graphic card failure? had it replaced (along with the battery) either summer 2010, or 2011 but now i think may be on the verge of going again (that or everything else is). Optical drive only works when it wants to.....runs hot...etc. Might need to replace fans. Now that I am very out of warranty i have to decide between replacing everything (most likely at leas the fans, the optical, new battery, upgrading past 10.1.4) or trying to get another mac, or going pc. Or trying to revive the mac enough to be my workhorse for graphics, and then getting a cheap internet/tv machine. I don't know. I wish there were clearer cut answers on these things. Nobody I know is very computer savvy. I wish i could get a reasonable evaluation from someone not trying to sell anything - just maybe like a pay for consultation place only. or a cool awesome computer friend.

I think the bottom looks better especially considering the setting, but i do like how the top looked before. Great find! So jealous - I need a narrow workbench-type bottom (in the $30 range - which would be doable but i need it to be counter height so you can stand at it while you work) for a work table myself (got a narrow piece of countertop for a steal). Hopefullu I can get lucky and find something similar without having to just make it myself!

really like the nightstands and the grey bed in the 4th one!

Think about it this way. You can't get this house BACK after you tear it down. The investors are just that, investors. They don't care about architecture or history. Follow the money. I find it hard to believe they can't turn a profit simply by selling this house as-is as a FLW house. This doesn't seem hard to me at all. They are selling the houses they will build anyway. It's not some couple that has scrapped and scraped for their dream home. You can't preserve something after its gone. Sorry, buy another lot somewhere else. I never get this need to destroy everything for profit. If you want new build homes, buy a lot you don't have to tear anything down on.

Who goes to these events? I don't mean that in snarky way either. Like...is it just an event put together to get "tastemakers" all in a room? All Publicity/PR? Do any Target brass actually attend?
