Sorry, lion and witch sold separately. ? Still, the stage is set much like many of us imagined when we read the children’s classic as kids: a dark-painted room with wood-trimmed windows and antique wooden furniture, with a large dresser that looks strangely both foreboding and inviting. Maple Seed Renovation specializes in custom projects, seeking “the balance of excellent design, well-executed craftsmanship, and natural materials” ? - hence, it should come as no surprise that the hidden space fits so beautifully in its context, and could be ‘just another vintage furnishing’ in this home. Within the dresser, there is an opening to the recreational space beyond but also shelves on one side to store games and toys that the children can take with them when they enter, and still leave ‘inside’ when they exit.

Cool Interior Tree Home: Best Kids Bedroom Design Ever? There are a lot of ways to make a nice bedroom, but for kids there is an element of excitement that is just as important as bedroom size and style. As these pictures illustrate, a cool bedroom for children can be a virtual fantasy world in itself – in this case by making the outdoors the driving interior design idea and central concept of the bedroom space. Complete with climbing ropes, ladders, swings and all kinds of hidden storage spaces, this bedroom brings all of the elements of an outdoor play space inside and makes the room feel like a self-sufficient home at the same time.

The best part, of course, is the tree house in the center of the room – who would not have enjoyed that as a kid growing up? Cute Food For Kids. Baby and Parenting Advice - parent to parent - Minti. The Tax Law that Can Make Your Kids Super Rich. Sometimes Congress hands out a break that is so generous it seems it must be a mistake. This one’s a doozey: The ability to receive totally tax-free inheritance of $400 million or more. Thanks to two recent changes in the tax code, investors with huge 401(k) accounts now have a way to turn them into completely tax-free income for their grandchildren’s lifetimes.

This is by far the biggest estate-planning break on record, created even as lawmakers debate over which tax giveaways should be killed to help shore up the federal budget. “This is a tax break you could drive 10 Mack trucks through.... " “I call this tax break the government’s going-out-of business sale,” says IRA guru Ed Slott, who travels the country teaching advisors and accountants how to squeeze benefits out of the Roth IRA.

RunGiaRun. Lapicero1.jpg from inhabitat.com - StumbleUpon. "The Spite House" in Alexandria, Virginia. See that tiny blue house wedged in between the white and red ones? It was built in 1830 and is only 7 feet wide. The Spite House, as it’s called, has two stories but only 325 square feet. It even appears to be considerably shorter than its neighbors. Ripley’s Believe It or Not named it the narrowest house in America.

According to the NYT: Structurally, it’s more of an enclosed alley than a house — the brick walls of older houses on either side form the painted brick walls in the living room. The home’s current owner, Jack Sammis, was interviewed about it on Oprah and told her that back when it was still an alley, there “was walking traffic and also carriage traffic—if you look closely on the walls, you can see the indentations where the wagon wheels would brush up against the wall.”

The owner says it was “quite a challenge” to make a kitchen work in the tiny space allotted. There’s definitely a lot of family togetherness in the Spite House.
