more bookcases for books and room to put the cases in LOL oh and yup that is a homey sort of feel for me. I prefer the ambiance of a library to truly feel at home.

If those bookcases could have glass doors to reduce dust that would be nice.

Hard surface floors to reduce dust

An electronic furnace filter to reduce dust

A second bathing spot in the house. We have a tub with a shower head, but our second bathroom is in the basement and consists of a sink and toilet only, no room to put a shower in.

I don't know if any of these make it more of a home, or just extra house. I like my home pretty much the way it is, it feels homey to me.

A FirePlace or Wood Stove.
An Area Rug.
An Comfortable Sofa or Chairs to sit in.
A Place to put everything that we need in.

More storage space

New paint-- indoors and out

Replace some of the boards on the front porch

New curtains-- in every room-- they were all here when we bought the place 11 years ago.

new and more throw rugs--- we don't have carpet anywhere in the house.

These things would make it more of a home-- unfortunatly, none are needs and monies are being funneled to other projects at the current time.
