One of the major obstacles was buying a vanity to fit into her bathroom space with the design features that she wanted and needed. I helped her out by building a 54" custom bathroom vanity with the offset sink on the left. The vanity … [Read more...]

Confession time: Sometimes I like to watch movies while lounging in bed, or folding laundry at the foot of my bed. :-) However the best wall in my bedroom for a TV to be mounted, is visible from the entry way and family room area.

That got me looking at how dirty my gas fireplace glass looks. The white haze almost … [Read more...]

Generally speaking a nightstand should be about the same height of the top of the mattress. You can adjust the … [Read more...]
