Where did the fridge go??? That is a major part of this reno.

What a great creative transformation! I notice a few interesting things we could use to update our own kitchen in Montreal. Would you mind sharing how much space the bench as well as the entire eating area take up from the wall? We have a small space that I think could be turned into a small bench area, but this would help greatly. And I love that this seems a solution for tall people!

What a stunning transformation; so full of warmth and charm! The choice of white for the walls was brilliant; it really opens up the space and brings in such a bright, airy feel.

Moving the fridge makes such a difference visually. So does removing all the junk on every available surface! The finished kitchen is fresh and relaxing.

Great question! We moved the fridge to the adjoining mudroom so we could fit a table that seats six in the kitchen (there’s no dining room in the cottage). Pictures of the mudroom can be seen on our public Instagram account @walkerspointitalianate
Re: Decluttering Cure 2025 - Tasks & Discussion
I don’t like to throw out perfectly good shampoo that I don’t use anymore, so I usually have a few bottles sitting around. When the decluttering cure began, I started experimenting with all the different ways extra shampoo could be used to clean things. Dishes, walls, woodwork, tile, greasy pans, doors, and even floors all got clean.
Re: Decluttering Cure 2025 - Tasks & Discussion
My aide and I gathered all the cleaning supplies into boxes. Then we sorted out the half empty ones to use up first. The full bottles were group into catorgies and stored on the behind the door on the thin wall unit from Amazon. No children or pets in the house. I will not have to buy Cleaning supplies for at least two months.
Re: House Tour: This Actor’s Brooklyn Apartment Proves Paint Can Completely Transform a Rental
So many things in this house spoke to me—the diagonal couch, all the soft seating, the interesting bits and bobs everywhere, the colors, the painted closet doors, etc. I found it very inspiring.
Re: House Tour: This Small LA Apartment’s Lighting Is So Good, You’ll Want to Keep the Big Light On
It is indeed a tedious process. I only figured out how to start a thread with an image and a link by playing around with a post after I submitted it. Now I know how to do it, but it's really a pain in the butt and I don't appreciate having to do it. Having the comments section on the same page as the tour is much better, of course, and I don't see why it can't be just as easily moderated as this community forum is. I mean, the former comments section utilized OpenWeb, which states that moderation is a main feature. Plus, since it seems that most people are having a hard time adding an image or a link when creating a discussion here for a house tour or B&A, AT staff has to come in and update the post with those things, so it's obviously not saving them work. Ultimately, participating here has now become one huge bummer.
