I actually started looking for other storage options from watching your channel. Iâm no designer nor have much idea about it. But seeing the pictures of what works and not has given me some ideas to try. I have other priorities with two growing boys and I donât spend time on my own to arrange/ decorate house. But small changes here and there is what Iâm looking for and I like that about your channel.

She is absolutely correct in every single thing that she has said here. Hats off to you young lady. I TOTALLY agree with it all and although i have never heard of these things before, thank heavens that i havent done any of these awful mistakes. One other thing that i find TOTALLY DISCUSTING and yet many do .... is leaving the toilet seat open !!! OMG soooo stomach churning !!!

I love all of these, and a little addendum on open/closed storage in the front entry: people with ADHD, kids, and anyone else with executive functioning or sensory input issues have a really difficult time using closed storage. If you donât have this issue, it might seem insane that opening a cabinet door or pulling out a drawer would be what stops you from using storage, but itâs the difference between shoes in the cabinet and shoes piled in front of the cabinet for a lot of us. So whatâs the solution? For us, itâs a wall of open storage that can close once itâs time to button up the house, like before dinner or when guests come over. We have a shallow bench with a boot tray underneath it, so you can just kick your boots into the tray, no lifting or pulling or whatever. There are shelves on either side of it for bags, sunglasses, mail, whatever, and hooks on the wall behind the bench for coats. (The bench has waterproof upholstery fabric to withstand drips.) In a past house, I installed a curtain rod across the front of the shelves, and it effectively made the whole thing a big shallow closet. I made a ritual of pulling the curtain closed in between the after-school, coming home explosion and dinner. Putting the visual mess away and putting on music was a great transition into dinner time. In this house, we have a big folding, sliding door. Itâs the same concept, but tidier than a curtain. Across from it is a nice entryway table with a mirror and a lamp. Good design is accessible design, and if youâre not going to open a cabinet, or if your family members are never going to open a cabinet, donât try to force it. Put a basket with its lid under it on a shelf or table at elbow level for keys and wallets, and if you want to, make a ritual out of putting the lid on. Or only use the lid when youâre hosting guests. Closed storage is for neurotypical people, but the rest of us can draw a curtain and still have the best of both worlds

We used to have a 60 inch TV on a 65 inch cupboard then my husband bought an 80 inch TV and then I had to buy something bigger because it looked really stupid and I got one that is slightly larger than the TV but itâs a huge TV. It would take up an awful lot of room, so I put custom-made shelving units on the end of the cupboard the tv sits on⌠and they are the same height as the tv⌠and it looks nice đ
