Ugly, dirty clothes storage in our new walk in closet!!!

Mr B and I have an ANTONIUS dirty laundry storage system which in the past we've kept in the laundry. However, since our bedroom is now upstairs it would be way too much effort to go downstairs every time we needed to chuck something in this little thing. So we've been keeping it in our ensuite/walk through robe.

Now, you may or may not remember that we still haven't got our walk through robe fitted out (or even designed for that matter), but Mr B has asked me to incorporate this little storage unit into our walk through robe design. At first I thought "No way! It will throw out the symmetry/layout that I had in mind and looks ugly!". But now I am really considering incorporating it (on Mr B's side of course!) since it could easily be incorporated into the "long hanging" section...

But because we want easy access to it, it will need to be right next to the ensuite door, which is premium space, and I really wanted drawers there.... Ughhh.... compromises!

What do you think? Have I completely lost my mind or what? :)

Thank you Lanne for suggesting this wonderful system!!!

How can we make our family room layout work?

Our family room is the space I want to furnish first. However, I've just realised that it is very akwardly shaped due to the huge sliding doors ... The two middle doors open outwards... The room is a part of the large open living space but on its own measures 5.1m x 3.6m (including the door). I've always imagined it with an L shaped modular but can it ever work? Or will we just need to get a 3 seater?

What about a coffee table? Can we even have one considering our sliding doors?

I look forward to hearing your suggestions as always :)

Feature Friday: A Little Glass Box

Today I am featuring the home of Courtney Schutz. She has a great eye for design. I love the eclectic feel her home has. Here is how she describes her style:

My style would be comfortable, partly traditional, and eclectic. We are a household that is ever changing. Between moving, having our little Olly Tate and our 2 waggly tailed friends...adaptability is key. I always approach style looking outside the box. I am not afraid to try anything because it can always be re-done. I am a diy fanatic and a sale shopping fool.  My favorite part of decor is feeling that the house embraces me and makes me feel at home. 

Enjoy! 

Thanks so much for sharing your home with us Courtney! 

Enjoy Black Friday! I am going to try and stay in my house and avoid the craziness.
