thanks, guys -- upon closer inspection, i see that there is a drawer. like jean, i'd need more (and deeper) drawers.

that looks wider than 3.5 doorways to me, but, yes, it's narrow.

has anyone ever seen the (world's?) narrowest house in amsterdam? it's like half that wide.

you know, these look fantastic, but i'm not sure how i would function without drawers. i'm looking into desks right now -- how do the rest of you do w/o storage?

it's surprisingly easy to kick paper towels. using cloth at the table and in the kitchen is comforting!

TRUE BLUE -- there is more of a concern with the plastic's chemicals leaching into food and water than there is with just touching plastics. but it's true you need to be concerned about a staggering number of products once you start thinking about plastic. and it's even more insane when you think about how dependent we've become upon household plastic in less than a century's time!

i have to say that it seems cold to me. i want to praise people who so scrupulously edit their stuff, but i may have just a touch too much of the baroque in me. the white rooms here remind me of the sterile rooms of the "mc-mansions" the owners so revile.

lighten up! keep some stuff around!

whew. now it's off my chest.

i'd like to see some pics of your outdoor drapes, pugluv, or anyone else who's been doing it! i remember a long-ago post on how the italians (?) used striped drapes over their (left-open) doors in the summertime. it was like a rustic screen door.

it would get annoying to have to use stepping stones to cross your own living room.

i think yellow for the paint. the white fabric isn't doing anything for the colors in there. i really like bepsf's fabric choices, above!
