This Old Houseblog

What’s a houseblog?

Houseblogs are online diaries written by folks who are building, improving or restoring their own homes. Like other blogs, they are updated regularly and show the work unfold in real time.

If you’re interested in reading houseblogs or starting one of your own, head over to Houseblogs.net, where you can:

- Find people with similar homes, taste, or challenges via their community.
- Follow along as people renovate their homes by reading the latest blog entries.
- Get help with a DIY problem by asking a question or searching our discussion board.
- Show off your own house by adding photos to your member profile.
- Share your own home improvement adventures–start your own houseblog!

Do you have “nontraditional” bathroom floors?

Are your bathroom floors any of the following?

- carpet
- hardwood
- cork
- bamboo
- glass tiles
- leather tiles
- glass mosaic
- rubber tiles or rolls

Have you reglazed or refinished vintage bathroom fixtures instead of replacing them?

If you have or have done any of the above, contact Kate, as she may want to interview you for HGTV.com.

How much wood would a woodpixel… pixel?

Woodpixel is a fancy shmancy puzzle design thingy, for artsy types, gadety types, or types in general who won’t mind plunking down a little dough for something that’s cool, however impractical it might be.

A woodpixel set includes a 26.5cm square tray and 100 2cm cubes. Each of the cubes’ six sides has a different color of wood, so you can create tons of different patterns and designs with them. When you get tired of your design, take out the cubes and make a new one.

Woodpixel sets are not in production as of this moment, but if there is enough interest generated, they will be. Head over to Woodpixel and check it out. If you like what you see, drop them an email to let them know!
