Comment on Where You Hang Your Hat or Helmet

These are some great ideas! I could not agree more that, setting aside a place for "sanity" is well worth the effort and the potential loss of space within one's home. If possible, one could place milk crates or boxes within cubbies designated for gloves, scarves, hats, etc. such that the contents of these boxes could be "dumped" for subsequent storage at the end of the season. Another suggestion would be to try to "fit in" a white board so that reminders (e.g. "PUT MAIL IN MAILBOX", etc.) could be temporarily scrawled so that everyone is able to see.

Comment on Some Respect for Vinyl

Seattle Remodeling — 2011-10-10T18:45:15Z

I agree that vinyl should not be "chucked" to the wayside. There are indeed many uses, such as the bathroom, as you noted. I find vinyl also has a place in apartments and/or rental houses as one is never sure as to the types of uses may occur (e.g. pets, kids, etc.). Consequently, vinyl is often a "safe", affordable choice.

These are really great space-saving tips! I have successfully used kitchen cutlery dividers for years to keep things organized. Additionally, as you note, keeping cleaning supplies in the bathroom adds to the "clutter". Consequently, I have found it easier to keep cleaning supplies for all of the bathrooms in the house in a "caddy" of sorts rather than keeping cleaning supplies within each bathroom.

Comment on When Doors Get in the Way

Portland Remodeling — 2011-09-05T16:05:19Z

I really like your ideas about hanging doors on barn door sliders as a way to save room. Such an approach truly is a great way to save space and be "creative" with different types of doors. On the other hand, while I realize pocket doors "complicate" issues such as wiring and plumbing, I think the use of such doors should be considered as part of any remodel or new construction.

Comment on Using Your Budget Wisely

Los Angeles Remodeling — 2011-09-02T20:32:00Z

Thanks for the great overview! I often encounter folks who spend so much money on the physical aspects of remodeling that they often have to cut corners when it comes to features such as bathroom fixtures. I really like your no nonsense approach of having a wish list and letting all of the members of a family have some input.
