I fulfilled a dream a while ago, and I bought a house. Not only a house, but a 100 year old house with so much charm (and so much that I need to fix up). Here is my never ending and always added to list of Stuff I Bought For My 100 Year Old House. Lots of things are “this is the temp solution while I figure out what I want / can afford the real thing”. Because sometimes, home building is building steps along the way! …Sometimes literally!

I love a white kitchen, actually I've only had an all white kitchen over the past 2 years, in the past our home had a soft green throughout. I was ready for a change and have always loved a neutral space. Decorating a white kitchen can be challenging depending on the size and layout to make it a warm and inviting space as white can lean to being over sterile. Adding textures like wood and metallics can transform an all-white space, bringing in depth, warmth and visual interest. This can be achieved through your choice of countertops, shelving, bar stools and all of the practical and decor pieces you add to your space. You have to make it comfortable for your family and suitable for your lifestyle.

So my wife and I have completely renovated two homes now, and partially renovated two others, all four of which we lived in full time during the course of the renovations - something that is definitely not for the faint-of-heart! Over the past thirty years, we've learned a thing or two about home renovations, products, materials, tools, contractors, and handy men.

It's been an interesting road that I know a lot of people may be reluctant to take. Let me tell you... if we can do it, anyone can do it!!

This guide looks at a small home office where only frequently used tools stay within reach. A desk becomes easier to use when the screen is positioned well, active papers are separated from archives, and charging cables stop crossing the writing area. These picks address those recurring friction points in a compact setup. Measure the desk and check device or mount compatibility before adding stands, power products or organisers. Sections for Raise the Screen, Handle Active Paper, Organize Small Tools, and Plan and Write separate the decisions that are easy to blur together, and picks such as Kensington SmartFit Monitor Stand, Pendaflex Hanging File Folders, and Joseph Joseph DrawerStore Compact Organizer make the tradeoffs visible. Read it as a buildable setup: solve the first pressure point, then add only what the routine still needs.
