    BAE You send the best photos! I love the church and labyrinth. Your land of sky and water makes me think I could move that far north... Thank you!

    I am brilliant! Haha, am very pleased with myself NOT due to this artistic effort which is sadly mediocre, but because I solved an interior design problem as follows:

    my tiny condo has no closet in the small bedroom ‘tho it has plenty of closets elsewhere. We throw our not-quite-dirty clothes over the bed rail, a chair, etc. creating visual clutter.

    I bought this French screen with the intention of painting over the ugly art on it. It is to sit at the foot of the bed, hiding the air conditioner.

    But my brilliant lightbulb idea is to hang hooks on the back of it for clothes. Perfect!

    Honestly, it take me ages to figure out solutions in small spaces. I have been measuring, online shopping, re-measuring, rethinking, doing more shopping to fit exactly the right furniture into a very small bathroom in Hermann. I lost out on a perfeft wicker cabinet on Facebook Marketplace. Someone got to it before me. But I was cheered to know that something in the right material snd dimensions exists.

    Here is the screen about half done.

    ….photo coming…
    Looking forward to seeing the photo! Sounds like a brilliant idea! I know what you mean about small space solutions. I have really enjoyed the challenge! Ironically, our teeny kitchen is the most efficient one we've ever had. DH, my Gordon Ramsey fanboy, loves cooking in our kitchen (although he pines for a Viking stove).

    My small space hacks have definitely included the use of hooks!

    Very nice. That is a very solid looking screen. Is it wood?
