Is that a nice way of saying, "grow up", Steve?

lookout123 · 07-05-2006, 01:14 AM

place under construction is mocha stained hickory flooring, with flecked tan carpet, natural hickory cabinets, deep olive solid granite counters, wildcat frazee paint interior, with tuscan artwork throughout. 46" flatscreen with prewired flushmount speakers throught.

80' pebbletec lagoon style pool, tuff turf lawn, cobblestone driveway.

completely devoid of the female touch that is so necessary to make a house into a home. *sigh*

*can't even explain how much i want to hand someone the checkbook and say "make it your own". but i don't think i'll ever be that trusting again.*

mmmmm... man cave.

Griff · 07-05-2006, 06:04 AM

Okay, my house is post and beam pretty much all done by me. Cherry cabinets with bright blue accents done by me. Most of the paint is cream done by Pete. The unfinished bits have not been done ...by me. The dog hair tumble weeds are mostly done by Bessie with some little assistance from Merlin. Piles of art supplies and projects done by lil Pete and lil Griff.

I'll be right over. Start by buying bookshelves and a gun safe and we can work the rest out later.

If it is she's SOL. Furniture isn't going to help that.

It appears that several people should be making regular postings in Dodads ...

I specialize in fascinating clutter. I can usually find what I'm looking for, so I can claim that it's not totally out of control.

There can be a fine line between accumulating and collecting; but, what do I know: I live in a poncho hooch in Central Park. [shhhhhh, UT, shhhhhh].

Ibby · 06-29-2006, 03:04 AM

My room is a COMPLETE wreck, yet i can find any item I want in it in mere moments.

smoothmoniker · 06-29-2006, 05:26 AM

lots of oak furniture, lots of shaker style woodwork - plane faced with dark handles. Tooooons of antiques (my wife is a collector, as are her parents).

And now, picture all of that covered with baby-proofing and plastic "Baby Einstein" toys.

Dodads like that need to be featured properly ... isolation shots. You have piqued our curiosity.

My living room, although I have a different sofa now, a dark green one. And since this was taken in february, just after I had moved there, it's clutter free. Not any more now, if I look around me I see study books on the floor, a few newspapers I need to throw away, a dog toy, shoes, you know, stuff.

You mean now it looks like somebody actually lives there instead of a real estate or furniture ad.
