Glatt, I love the colors in your place -- especially the purple. While I lived with my parents, my mother would never let us paint the walls because according to her it made the house harder to sell. (Nevermind the fact that we planned to continue living in that house for the better part of a decade.)
What a warm looking home. Thanks for sharing!

Very nice, Glatt. I'm not letting beest see your shop.....

monster · 01-13-2008, 05:03 PM

...he'd set me straight to work clearing all the crap out of the basement to make room!

Aliantha · 01-13-2008, 05:06 PM

That was awesome glatt. I loved your commentary. I wish my husband could build stuff around our house like you do around yours. He's mechanically inept though, and that's a self proclaimed title. All I can say is, lucky he's smart.

Anyway, I loved the tour. Very cool.

Choco! You sound so cute! Great Tour!

Our microwave kills our satellite TV when we use it, go figure.

Glatt! Awesome house! I'm jealous, when you moved into your workshop, my jaw literally dropped. My workshop is near the middle of a very, very long list of projects for my dad, so I'm quite envious of yours.

Wow this is GREAT!
Made my day.

I've gone back and checked them all out as I am at a PC with earphones today. Thanks to everyone who has posted. You all made me laugh at some point, which makes me sound quite mad in the library. I also found myself inter-acting with YouTube which is quite worrying, I forget you can't see out of the other side to see me waving you goodbye.

I loved to see your fridges and cupboards! Now I feel I need to go back and do mine again to include the current themes

I'll leave it another 6 months and see what else people show...!

I'm surprised that American freezers are so small, at least in comparison to your fridges. We have an under-counter fridge and an undercounter freezer, so we have the same capacity for both (and it's still too small). My parents have a full size fridge in the kitchen and TWO chest freezers in the shed...

Lovely houses people. More please.
BTW UT, for a non-dog person I have to say I was completely bowled over by Pearl.

Very nice, Glatt. We have the same toybox thingy (the one in the living room) and the same little plastic primary color kids drawer thingy. Your house looks like a fun place to hang out.

BrianR · 01-16-2008, 01:25 AM

I'll try to post a tour of our home next month. All five of our furkids will be introduced. Especially the new one, a Weimaraner pup.

Thanks!

We pulled up small areas of carpet in other parts of the house, but the floors aren't as nice in those areas, so we left the carpet. It's a shame, since the floor in the living room is so nice.

The previous owners messed up the floors by gluing parquet style flooring all over it, and then later carpet over that. I keep having to remind myself that the only reason we could afford a house in this neighborhood was because the previous owners messed it up with stuff like that. Dropped the price down into our range.

melidasaur · 01-25-2008, 09:52 AM

Glatt, we have the same TV stand... IKEA, right?

glatt · 01-25-2008, 10:02 AM

Yep! We bought it when the kids started to be big enough to crawl around and get into everything. Didn't want them blowing out the speakers on the stereo by messing with the knobs. I like the lockable glass doors. They let the remote signal through, but not the curious little hands.

TheMercenary · 01-26-2008, 07:49 AM

Well done Glatt. I really enjoyed it. Thanks for letting us in.

Griff · 01-26-2008, 08:14 AM

Very cool Glatt! That's a really nice shop space. I'm not smart enough to have a first aid kit in mine.

Elspode · 02-04-2008, 07:08 PM

Well, I've made a really crappy vid of my place, converted it to mpg to get the size within YouTube parameters...but I can't seem to get it to upload. YouTube just sits there and stares at me.

Ideas?
