Thank you all so much for your words of encouragement! I am so over-the-top excited about this! And thank you Up North and MadQuilter for taking the time to post your photos as well! Trust me, I took in every little tiny detail of your rooms! The vertical storage will be important, I can tell, plus multiple-use items will be important. Pegboard would be good, too, painted a pretty color! Since it is an outside porch being finished off, three walls will be brick, but I guess I can use some concrete nails to put up some pegboard. Sigh ... First things first, though, which would be getting in touch with the contractor! LOL Thank you again so very much. This board is the best! :thumbup:
