POLL: Most difficult room to decorate?
Comments (15)@embzop, I would keep the guest bedroom as plain and neutral as possible. And keep it decluttered to keep it inviting. @Tom Flannagan, I think bathrooms are just that one space in the house that is not attached to any other room style wise. When I walk into my future bathroom I want to be swept away from this world into another one of luxury and serenity! I don't care about styles and 'what should fit the house', the bathroom is my space and I will do with it what I like :) @milicaopica, I think there are great options when you have a 5m high ceiling! When you put in another 'floor' you can have extra storage, a hide away, extra sleeping space, perhaps a slide? The possibilities are almost limitless! @k11agl, I get your point. Possibly you could build a wardrobe against one of the sloping walls. But that of course depends on how much ground space the room will have left over and what you want to use the room for. I've got sort of the same problem next to my dormer windows, but I also have radiators up against two of the vertical walls. No wardrobe here :(. I think hallways are tricky too. They need to be functional yet inviting. Fortunately I have two; one tiled and the other one is going to have a parquet floor. So the first one will be the 'mudroom' where the kids can dump their stuff and coats and it will be made to be easily cleaned. The second, bigger one will be the 'nice' hall, with fancy wallpaper and nice furniture (telephone seat). Thinking about it I realise how lucky I am to be able to have two hallways with different functions ;)...See MorePOLL: Which chore would you most like to skip?
Comments (41)Ironing. I don't. As others have mentioned, I also take clothes straight out of the tumble dryer and fold nicely. Since I finished with the city job, 10 yrs ago, am now resident in snowy N Yorkshire and run a small cheese making business I am lucky that I no longer have to wear shirts or ultra smart clothes for work, just a polo shirt, jeans and jumper. Actually no longer own an iron. Dusting too. Hate it. Also, my vacuum cleaner is afraid of heights so seldom makes it upstairs. Am beginning to think I am getting slovenly in my old age....See MorePOLL: For decorating or renovations, which space is most overlooked?
Comments (7)I voted Hall (and I can see I'm not alone ! ) as even though it's the first thing everyone sees as they enter one's home, it's often just a dumping ground for coats, shoes, bags & umbrellas etc. To get your hall more organised there are some excellent super slim pieces of furniture created specially for this often confined space, For example German experts Schoenbuch offer shoe cupboards, shelves and sideboards with depths starting at just 20cm deep....See MoreHow do you most use your mobile device/tablet in the kitchen?
Comments (15)I use my phone or iPad to check recipes, emails, banking or check out something that’s caught my eye on the internet. If they’re in the kitchen they live on the big windowsill which is safely out of the way of any spills. One good point is we are incorporating a “charging station” (as we are extending the kitchen)....See MoreSTAGE
