I still have a few pics to get up (my closet, my shoe collection and what makes me happy in a day are tall orders, ladies :) ) but here is the other half of the requests. If you didn’t make your request yet and want to add one, feel free, I’ll keep doing them as long as someone is asking.

First up: “I want to see your favorite spot to hang out around your house” from Alyssa
Living room couch and coffee table
This is my living room couch, it is the most comfortable thing ever! It’s more comfortable than my bed and my husband and I fight over who gets that corner there, the one with the pretty pillows? (He doesn’t care about the pillows, he only cares about the chaise and stretching out his legs) We also fight over the blanket on the edge of the couch (in the picture, I stole it and put it on our bed) which is technically his woobie.

Next: “OK, You have this amazing sense for decorating your home (especially around halloween) and we all know that Sprog is a stellar kid for being a teenager and all. I’m kind of curious as to what his room looks like. Is it a catastrophe of molding dishes and wrinkled clothes? Or is it a miraculous gem in the world of teenager rooms?” from Duchess of Kickball
Sprog room from the doorway
This is the view from the doorway. Painter’s tape blue, white, silver and black are the colors of his room. Note the range of colors in the closet? He has shoes that match these shirts EXACTLY.
Sprog room from the corner
Here is his bed, note the slippers (mine btw) tied to the top? He uses these as remote and phone holders when he’s in bed watching tv. Also note the skateboard, Christmas lights, sword, keyboard and little table with money and fruit loops box? Interesting tableau, no?
Sprog room from the closet
This final view is from the closet. Points of note, the perfectly lined up shoes on the bottom of the bookcase, these are HALF of his collection. (Also note the other shoe boxes next to it? MORE SHOES they just don’t fit or have lost favor) He’s the only kid I know with an entry table and he actually puts his money, wallet and camera on it. He still plays with Legos, that blocky looking thing on one of the shelves is inspired by the Lego house he saw built on some show on BBC.

So part catastrophe, part gem, I’d say.

And finally (for today): “I want to see the collection of condiments in your fridge! (I’m sorry - I have a shamefully large condiment army in my fridge and I’m always looking for reassurance that I’m not the only one.)” from Hillary
Condiments for Hills
This is a mere portion of our condiment collection. As hot sauce is shelf stable, this doesn’t represent ANY of the hot sauces my husband has which are sprinkled all over our kitchen and out onto the dining room table. I also have a little set up by the stove of various oils and vinegars that I use while cooking.

We have the exact same couch as you! The Hubster teased me relentlessly when we were shopping for it because my only criteria was that it had a chaise. And he’d say “chaise” with his pinky in the air. I bet, if I went home right now, he’d be camped out right there!

Alyssa Says:

Yess, I love these :) Thank you!

Jon’s room when he was a teenage was the EXACT same color!!

I love this idea! I want to see your closet! And your dishes. Because I am a dish-a-holic and love to look at them. Weird, I know.

TUWABVB Says:

I love your coffee table! And the slipper-remote holder? Pure genius - I laughed when I read that. Maybe Sprog will be the next Sham-wow guy! :)
