This has nothing to do with decorating, but it reminded me of you Katie. I liked it and hope you do too. (I guess it could encourage you to creatively decorate your space?)

Katie Clemons Oh this is so lovely, Kathy. Thank you for thinking of me and sharing this.

this site has some really interesting American-made pieces (some much cheaper than this piece, but this is cool too!)

Bathroom design. Could use some reclaimed wood on the walls. I like the rustic look of this.

Great recycling spot. What do you think Katie? This may not be in your living space, but elsewhere in the hangar??

Katie Clemons we've got these huge plastic bins for recycling in the hangar. They work, but it's not exactly attractive. So I'm taking note here – thanks!

Great kitchen cabinet! Look how much is stored in there!!!

A surplus purchase from the builders of the Denver International Airport combined with some yacht building techniques created this inexpensive vanity and sink. Very cool and so beautiful!

I love the idea of making a small bathroom feel less cramped by using the glass (although not so fun to clean if you have hard water).

This floor is made of plywood! It really does look amazing!

great idea for a coffee table: reuses discarded materials and allows for storage space!

Amy E i love the window nook as well! or something along the lines of a built-in booth (like what you'd find at a cozy restaurant); there'd be TONS of storage options under booth bench seats!

Katie Clemons I know! Still trying to sell Martin on the idea. He keeps saying, "Our house isn't a diner." haha

Juliette this is adorable. I was just thinking about seeing if you were into wallpaper, even on a board so you can move it around. I think wallpaper is such a fun idea!! (and affordable in small spaces!)

you should have a slide!! :)

Keeping track of paint colors in your house! Use stir sticks to recall your paint colors. Write paint name and number on end of stick, along with what you painted. Bundle with sticks with twine.

Katie Clemons Every time I hear a rivet gun through the walls, I could imagine someone beating the drum light

use ANY canvas, apply stickers, decal, etc., and spray paint. Remove Decals; hang white lights behind it. -- night light/mood lighting

Jane @ The Borrowed Abode Oh my gosh, what a great idea!

Profile picture of Juliette

Juliette but would they dry well? or cause mildew? (this from a person in rainy Germany, ha!)

Profile picture of Katie Clemons

Katie Clemons good point, Juliette. The air is crazy dry here, but tucking away wet things is always a great opportunity for mold no matter where you are. DRATS for this idea. :(

Profile picture of Amy E

Amy E my parents have something similar and have no issues, they usually just leave the door open or leave it extended. Since they're only done with the towels when they're ready to leave the kitchen, then it doesn't get in their way to leave it extended. i don't remember them ever having issues.

Profile picture of Katie Clemons

Katie Clemons Oh that's interesting, Amy. It really just boils down to our own personal habits and environment, then.
