is anyone "home"?

where are those colored clamp lamps from? they're really cool

i like those shelves. i just don't want the hardware here because it's a small space.

kinda going back and forth though. i don't always like the look of floating either.

Chinavision - that's a Marantz on the book shelf, right? Is that a Rega on the small shelf?

I agree, very nice setup. What do you do for vinyl storage?

know what, i'm gonna think about those track shelves again. the white looks cool. it looks like a place where someone lives, not some bullshit on pinterest.

the lamps are ikea

and most records are on ikea shelves, with a lot of twelve inches around the corner in my studio, which is very messy. if I could I'd replace the shelves with something white.
plus a gratuitous shot of our mantle.

the hardware of those shelves seems less bulky/intrusive bc its the same color as the walls

yeah. i'm not gonna do white for the walls but i might do light gray which would be ok. can't wait to go to home depot tomorrow lol.

Something like the Ikea Lack shelves that attach to the wall with no visible hardware supporting it:

Lots of other colours available

nope nope nope

would you be against building in half a bookcase into the corner with the side on the entrance by the kitchen?

there's also shit like this -

Enjoying these pictures of everybody's shelving setup here's a pic of mine

not sure if I envy or am freaked out by uncluttered pictures

I am a master of clutter
picture preceding this post knows what I'm talking about

migt want to return some of those library books dan

literally almost choked on coffee at that post 龜

ogmor i'm not *opposed* to that but that's like 4-5" of shelf and the stove is behind there so it would get greasy

kinda like that corner shelf and saw it before but it's beyond my carpentry capabilities

migt want to return some of those library books dan

Never vive la France

i am the supreme master of clutter. i'm not a hoarder, i love throwing things away, but i create piles because i lack proper storage for everything. i work a lot and get tired from working and that makes me clean less. also get overwhelmed, which clutter makes worse. this week i worked on cleaning a lot & trying to use my cleaning momentum to get this project done.

harbl cant we make shelves across that whole wall instead of just the corner

i don't have enough stuff to fill those that and it's a very narrow room

some ppl are reading this book re clutter btw https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/22318578-the-life-changing-magic-of-tidying-up

i think it wld be good tho

i think it would be too i just don't want to make the space any narrower

fair, considering you have actually seen the space in question

I own a few books on decluttering, they're on my coffee table under some beer bottles

clutter book discussed here btw discussed here Getting Things Done (GTD) - Cult or Awesome?

wow all 9 of the library's copies of that are checked out

ha damn

i can't read the GTD thread. i am sometimes inspired by stupid blog posts about getting things done but trying to implement them makes my brain feel like a knot.

i am def not a GTD person just in it for the decluttering, which tbf i am already pretty into, its just like an interest of mine

i love when things are not cluttered too. you wouldn't know it looking at my office or house though.

i only located the declutter talk in GTD via an excelsior post

the main take away from that book seems throw everything you dont absolutely adore or use constantly away in one swoop then make sure everything thats left has an assigned place to be put away, i only read the first chapter tho, i think theres advice abt how to specifically organize stuff too

the lady is quite a charming loon too telling stories about how she loved to read articles about how to clean things when she was a kid

i bought it because the title claims tidying up is magical and i believe that

we just ripped out track shelving but it looked awful in a georgian living room. want to replace it with tall cupboards/cabinets we can cover in wallpaper but not sure you can get ones tall and narrow enough. or maybe you can and they're called wardrobes idk

this kind of thing: http://flodeau.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Cole-Son-Circus-wallpaper-FLODEAU.COM-1.jpeg

hot

i apologize in advance for this horrifically ugly pic

http://designlike.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/countryliving.jpg

WHAT is the thing on the left hand/upper side of the pic that appears to be holding dried flowers in its base

A water dispenser/vat with a spiggot at the bottom and a basin to catch drips? Is my best guess.

Every time I look at the sheer number of flowered things I start laughing though so I'm a lil distracted.

ya some sort of olde timey sink

hahha i know im soo sorry

kind of tempted to start an "ugliest interior design pics" thread

that is beautifully hideous

i esp love the (of course flowered) "happy birthday" tray on far right

D:

going to redo my entire house in this motif

inside and out

before i even scrolled down to your post beneath the image, my first thought was 'wtf is that awesome thing on the wall'

I know it's potpourri in that stupid thing under it, but I decided you put dried mushrooms in there and it's a mushroom rehydrating device

finally, a real answer

To be more specific, different grays go with different other colors. It's more about the shading than anything. There are a million grays.

indeed
also "do what you like" otm

i am trying to be less of a slob. that's my current home improvement project.

me too! stop being so disgusting. also re-start painting. i'm acknowledging i'm never going to *want* to paint. so i need to stop waiting to want to paint.

I've transcended from clutter to actually dirty around here, took day off work for mental health reasons and am going to try to get some cleaning done!

be less disgusting otm
my breaking point came when i saw something hiding behind the grapefruit and made the mistake of reaching out to touch it and it was an extremely decrepit pear ;_;
pretty gross

i have the desire to paint, de-clutter and clean when I'm totally slammed with work and don't have time to do these things -- also, the desire is an escape mechanism -- putting off one thing in favor of something else that isn't as immediately necessary but easier. bedroom really needs paint, as it hasn't been painted in almost 20 yrs (as in right before I moved in). But I'm going to wait until summer or at least warmish spring, so I can open the windows to air out the paint smell.

When I'm pushed to action with a really busy week at work I feel the obligation to be _on_ when I'm home, too

which is horrible because slow times at work would be the perfect time to get a lot of home stuff done but I slow down

first time i've seen this thread. chinavision!'s pad's feng shui is off the charts
