robin hood s hideaway robin hood s hideaway robin hood s hideaway on april 15 2008 we closed on a 1955 mid century modern home in merriam ks that was custom designed by the late donald r hollis of hollis miller architects we will be sharing our journey as we update the house to make it our own while trying to stay as close to the original design as possible monday january 5 2015 new year s resolution update blog despite some hounding by ld and some friends i only managed two posts in 2014 i could lie and claim that we had no projects that were blog worthy but i won t i was just plain lazy when it came to writing so my new year s resolution is to update this blog a lot more often than i did in 2014 which is not setting the bar too high well here is to hoping that i keep this resolution in order to make up for my lack of updates last year i will try and catch you up with some of the highlights from last year our homeowners association organized a bidding process for those of us that needed trees trimmed and or removed we took advantage of the lower prices and had several trees trimmed unfortunately we also had our silver maple removed from our front yard it had just sustained too much damage from previous storms and it kept loosing major limbs with every storm we had we were happy to provide some work for a hard working crew during their off season minor project but worth mentioning given the lack of contrast between our wall and house numbers we decided we needed to make our house easier to locate delivery persons first time visitors etc so we purchased a stencil from modern house numbers and stenciled our address to the curb hopefully it makes it easier for the pizza delivery person to find us now ld had been lusting after some wall tiles from inhabit living for several years and in 2014 she finally bit the bullet and placed an order for some of their tierra wall flats she put a ton of effort into the prep and installation of those tiles this project is worth a blog all on its own so look for one shortly not a house project but certainly worth mentioning i was a frequent stalker of the ikea construction site on september 10 2014 ld and i joined a few thousand other ikea fans in celebrating the grand opening it was well worth it so instead of having to travel 8 hours to get to the ikea in minnesota i only have to travel about 3 minutes walking and or biking are also an option after much discussion between what the bar for blackdog bar would look like it finally became a reality this year ld fell in love with a metal counter that she saw during one of the first weekends at the west bottoms unfortunately that specific piece was too large for our house but she commissioned one there were a couple of bumps along the way but she was very pleased with the final result it really fits the space nicely now i need to take a bartending class it got done just before our halloween party after taking a hiatus in 2013 we were happy to host a halloween party in 2014 given the royals success this year it became a halloween royals watching party i was torn between rooting for a team i have always liked giants or rooting for the royals i ended up rooting for the home team and was very happy for the kansas city community we have finally started work on much needed landscaping in our front and side yards the first phase of this project is almost finished stay tuned for more updates posted by delia at 9 38 pm 1 comment email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels blackdog bar halloween party ikea inhabit living landscaping modern house numbers tierra wall flats tree trimming wall tiles friday march 21 2014 we welcomed spring with a brand new fireplace well not brand new but at least it is now functional the previous owner was kind enough to leave us with a fireplace full of ash to clean up so we figured that he used it pretty regularly to be on the safe side however we called a local fireplace company to come clean and inspect our fireplace we were told that under no circumstances we should use the fireplace for wood or gas fires there were several areas within the flume that had missing mortar which required the chimney to be tuck pointed or lined we had a chimney liner at our first house installed so we figured it would not be a big deal we were not prepared for the quote that we received which was two times what it had cost to install the liner in our first house mid way through this winter i finally got tired of not having a functional fireplace and decided to do something about it at first we thought about installing a gas burning insert but that required that our gas line be moved and an electrical outlet be installed at the back of the firebox after finding out how much moving the gas line was going to cost we decided to nix that option so we finally decided to get the fireplace lined install a burner and purchase some fireglass after much research we decided that an h shaped burner from exotic flames best met our needs we purchased fireglass from a vendor on ebay and lava rock from a local fireplace store we had to wait a while before we received our burner because they were backlogged but the wait was worth it things are finally warming up outside and inside posted by delia at 10 19 am no comments email this blogthis share to x share to
