    bravo for moving the bathroom door, not just to gain cabinet/counter space in the kitchen, but also because it's just plain nasty to have the bathroom door open directly to the kitchen. I fully understand that sometimes it can't be avoided, but very often there is a way :D

    Having experienced shared Army Accomodation shared by 4 - we had to come up with interesting ideas on how to use the back of wardrobes to have some privacy. All we had were single beds. 4 wardrobes and 4 dressers. So the wardrobes were our walls. Its amazing how you can change the space by using the back of wardrobes. When I left and moved into another open plan large room - I used the back of a large wardrobe system to separate a large open plan room to give me privacy in the bedroom area. Just a thought - once I could use paint and wallpaper I wall papered the back of a large wardrobe and added mirrors for a privacy screen.

    I'm in love! Beautiful green (I think that's called Kelly), terra cotta, oxblood. Along with plenty of warm white. And the banquette is so custom and built-in, the whole length of the walls. Beautiful! What a blessing to have this orientation as well, the light streams in! And what a pleasant surprise with the cafe-length curtains, you rarely see them, people say you need long drapes to make a room look larger. There was a movement called the 'not-so-tiny' house for a while.

    • @Noreenlee1

    Love everything about the Meadow house. From the colour, through the well thought out placing of every thing., to the plants which seem to be thriving so well.
    It is so homely and welcoming. It invites all who see it to stay a while and enjoy the peace the exudes from the walls and sit in the well placed chairs to enjoy the vista from it's many windows. Can not get enough of you vlogs where ever they are done. Thankyou for spending the time to show us the progress and take part in this project.

    I think I cried all the way through it I've dreamed about living in that house since I was 3 years old and I'm 63 now it felt like home! You're wonderful doing all this it's beautiful it speaks of your soul!!! I personally would have the breakfast nook go all the way around the wall. That's something we had when I was a child. All the kids from the neighborhood just love to come and sit in the kitchen at the breakfast nook! The lamp above it was a lantern type that had a handle under it that you could grab and pull it down on a pulley system then when you were done playing cards or other games you could push it back towards the ceiling!!! We always felt like we were playing cards in a movie!! The table was not quite round not quite square but with the seating being all along the wall in a u-shape, with more than ample room, we did not need a chair in front of the table. We could always grab one from the other room if we needed it. Me personally the chair blocks the flow of the room and makes it smaller. The big Windows behind us gave us a view that let the sun in every morning. We had big soft cushions on the seat and the back and the material was something that felt like vinyl and leather mixed? My mother loved it easy cleanup!! Three boys and three girls you need a lot of cleanup! The seats were attached to the wood bench with large snaps and unbelievably they did not rip, come loose or slide around for over 12 years! That's very amazing when I think back about it. I still dream about that breakfast nook and the peace and serenity I felt every morning Setting there, I felt special! Thanks for a wonderful video I have that special feeling watching you both!!! Much love to you and yours! ♥️🙋🏻‍♀️

    It's nice to not have such close neighbors, like in the city. Your white curtains are lovely, with all of the friendly colors all around, they just light up and look relatively sheer, from here. My Grandmother's house had the basics, in each room and here and there decorative accents. She had a little room, off of the kitchen, a pantry where things were stored, on shelves etc. right up to the high ceiling. I did not know at the time, but now I would consider it to be a luxury. Storage place anywhere, is a luxury. You've managed it well. I like the invisible fridge.

    Good tips and what a beautiful,comfortable home! I use a lot of the tips already, in our modestly sized home (it's not tiny, but then we do have 4 children 😊). I do keep my kitchen counter completely empty, except when cooking. I need room to cook and our entire counter, including sink and cooker measures only 3 meters. My tip there would be to have only what you need (eg two wooden spoons, one large chef's knife and two small knives, a garlic press...) and keep them all in a drawer under the worktop, not in containers on the worktop. We also don't have a dishwasher. We simply use a towel to put our wet dishes on, no rack. I prefer not to store under sofas or beds, for easy cleaning, although I did make some drawers on wheels for under some of the beds, because we just need room to keep sheets and blankets. One extra tip: we have comfortable chairs for 4 people only, because we seldom all sit in the living room together. As extra seats we use folding (camping) chairs covered in quilts. They are easy to bring into the living room when we want to watch a movie together or when we have guests and take up very little room when not in use.

      @thesender6793 8 месяцев назад

      I thought that too. I was planning to get one, because they store easily. Then I realized my cooling rack for baked goods spanned my sink front to back and could double as a drain rack. Then I decided it was easiest to simply dry and put away each item as I washed it. No drying rack needed.

  • @agb6330
    @agb6330 8 месяцев назад +6

    Great, cozy looking house. What we did is put lazy susan like they did in a past with non bendable doors, so it is corner V shape fixed panel that attaches to the shelves inside. This eliminates huge inconvenience of these movable, bendable fronts that they currently placing in most kitchens. We never have to worry about banging the door against cabinets on a side. We also put sliding metal shelves in all bottom cabinets to be able to get to any items in a back easily, like you did with your trash door, and in trash cabinet, we placed 18" dishwasher and narrow pullout cabinet next to it. We put slide out shelf under the sink with trash bin so we could slide waste from cutting board that fits over the sink area (idea came from RV kitchen design) but our sink is single bowl with left side drain that allows for full clearance space under the right side. I love the refrigerator/ freezer.

    I love this cottage. Love 💚 the jade green throughout and outside too. And you designed and decorated it beautifully, perfect for the space. Would be good to create a hidden work surface for the kitchen, that pulls out from under the countertop with a leg that drops down. This way when you need more prep space, you can pull it out, then slide it away when done.

    I have a lidded compost bucket provided by our city, I use compostable ‘plastic’ bags to line it. It gets smelly fast! I don’t think I’d like your open compost bins, too much emptying and cleaning to have no smell. I have more counter space than you, but I keep it as clear as possible to give myself room to prep and cook. As lovely as it looks, for me, there is too much stuff. If I was there for a week, I’d be loading up your bench storage with all of the unnecessaries from the counters on day one, lol! 😝 If you have to move a hanging plant to open the fridge, maybe eliminate the plant. Saunder has done incredible work, it’s an amazing build. I’ve enjoyed seeing this sweet little dwelling come to fruition.

      I stopped using a lid for my compost and there’s no longer a smell. I think it helps to let it air out.

      The open compost bins smell less because the food dries out, as it would if left out on a plate.
