Truly just shoe storage? or shit wrangling storage?stripethree wrote: ↑Thu Nov 30, 2017 1:01 pm Ok, recommend me a show rack, preferably black, not wall mounted or over the door. Need something in the downstairs room to wrangle my shit. Only other piece of furniture in the room is a black Ikea bookcase (5x5).
I was thinking something simple like this:
I could find something at Target, but Amazon seems much easier to search and destroy.

I have more shoes than you think so I need at least two shelves. And black is a must-have. And damn girl, I ain't that baller! Hmmmm maybe the $40 Amazon one might be the ticket.
I admittedly laughed at $500 for an entry bench. But they’re real pretty so I said fuq it and suggested them any way.stripethree wrote: ↑Thu Nov 30, 2017 4:48 pm I have more shoes than you think so I need at least two shelves.

A couple more bachelor pad mods from this week.
Never had one of these before. I dig it.
Nesting. Austin Energy should be paying me back up to $170 for enrolling in their energy saving shindig. From dumb thermos to smart thermos connected to Alexa in less than an hour. The E models were on sale for a pair, and the things it lacks compared to the nicer one, I did not care about.
And since the house is Unit B, well, obvious name is obvious.

After going through the light bulbs in the house to see what I needed, since a few are out and odd sizes, I decided against going with Hue stuff for now. The fans take E11 bulbs and even though E11 to E12 converters exist, I do not think the bulbs will fit. Instead, spending more money on some additional lighting. Made the mistake of browsing West Elm again and noticing that oh, my $50 credit expires Jan. 1... saw these lamps and
So, I'll take twoadees:

And yes, I bought the Edison LED bulbs too.

I have one more project to do - :pinshit: bedroom mirror project - then I want to post photos of the place again. Have the sofa, picked up some ottomans, put curtains up in the bedroom.. place feels super legit and I am very pleased with how it came together.
I was planning to do that project this weekend, then realized the car that I could haul Home Depot stuff home with has no seats and only half a dash. Whoops.
