There are some real gems in this blog! Number 11 and 29 are my favourites :)
1. Build a small mailbox library.
5. Save space with drying racks in your laundry room that disappear into the wall after use.
8. Heat sensing tiles will turn every shower into an Aurora Borealis of color.
11. Outlets in drawers mean that you can get all that gadget clutter off the counter.
12. You could also install your outlets underneath your kitchen cabinets so they don’t interfere with the backsplash.
13. Give your appliances an expensive-looking makeover with stainless steel contact paper.
14. Slide out drawers in the kitchen provide easy access for spices and condiments.
15. If your garage is adjacent to your kitchen or pantry, insert a small door for a super easy way to load groceries.
16. Build a porthole/tunnel into the wall to connect two rooms.
A super fun idea for connecting a playroom to the living room, or to provide an easy way to access two kids’ rooms.
17. Add a long shelf to a hallway.
21. Replace your house numbers with a modern font.
The ones on the right are available from Design Within Reach.
22. Make signs for the bathroom so your guests know where to go.
This crafter found the wooden replicas at Michael’s and painted them black.
24. Light up your front or back porch with a chandelier.
25. Hide a slide-out coffee bar or kitchen appliances behind folding doors.
28. Missing a skylight? Get a Sun Tunnel.
These are REAL, although you do need a certified roofer to install.
29. Install a slide-away “step” in your bathroom baseboard to solve your short person problems.
You can just slide it away when not in use instead of constantly tripping over the stool.
32. Mirrored tiles are a great substitute for a windowless room.
Left: mirrored subway tiles for a small dressing room or bathroom.
Right: a paned mirror that gives the illusion of light in a windowless basement.
