A Family Spent $500,000 on Built-In Cabinets for Those Costco Runs

When Gilded Age architect Addison Hutton designed a grand, circa-1870s mansion for the family of a prominent attorney in a bucolic town near Philadelphia, nobody was worried about where to put the extra rolls of paper towels. Such things weren't invented yet. Neither were those wholesale-club stores that sell bulk-packaged pallets of everything from canned tuna to Ziploc bags to meet the needs of families with, say, three young boys and a golden retriever.

Angel Reese Sends Strong Message Following Exciting Announcement

Angel Reese Sends Strong Message Following Exciting Announcement originally appeared on Athlon Sports. While much of the spotlight is currently on the basketball court with the WNBA season in full swing, Chicago Sky forward Angel Reese continues to make a major impact off the court as well. Advertisement This week, Reese—partnering with Cash App—announced the unveiling of a custom-designed public basketball court at Oakwood Beach in Chicago. The vibrant court features a bold message: "This court is brought to you by your good friends Angel Reese and Cash App." Now in just her second season with the Sky, Reese has already become deeply involved in the local community. On Friday, ahead of Chicago's matchup against the Phoenix Mercury, she was asked about the court and the inspiration behind it. 'Obviously, I didn't know exactly what it was going to look like,' Reese said. 'I knew they were doing the court, and that's something I really emphasize—giving back to the community. Chicago has poured so much into me. They've done so many great things for me in just a year and a half, and I'm super happy to call this place home. I've had a lot of people send me selfies there. It's right by the water—people didn't even realize Chicago has water like that—but it's really nice. The feedback has been amazing.' Since entering the league, Angel Reese has expanded her brand beyond basketball, landing several high-profile partnerships. Among them, Cash App has been a key collaborator, but she's also inked deals with major brands like Hershey, Beats by Dre, McDonald's, and most notably Reebok, which is set to release her signature shoe in 2026. Advertisement Drafted seventh overall by the Chicago Sky in the 2024 WNBA draft out of LSU, Reese has been a consistent bright spot on a team still finding its footing. The Sky finished 13–27 last season and are off to a 3–8 start this year, but Reese's development has remained steady, solidifying her status as one of the league's brightest young stars. Chicago Sky forward Angel Reese (5).Kamil Krzaczynski-Imagn Images Currently, she stands as the WNBA's only player averaging a double-double, with 11.0 points, 11.7 rebounds, 3.6 assists, and 1.6 steals per game—positioning her well for what could be a second consecutive All-Star appearance.

9 'Polite' Salon Habits That Hair Stylists Actually Dislike

The salon is as much a professional establishment as it is a place of social gathering for anyone seeking out a hair refresh, whether it's a color boost or new cut. While there's certainly a list of dos and don'ts at the hair salon, having your best experience comes down to knowing how to interact with your stylist in a way that will make it enjoyable for both parties. It can be tempting to go above and beyond in politeness, but it's not always necessary. Just let the stylist steer the appointment, and you'll be set up for success. Here are 9 'polite' habits that hairdressers would actually prefer you Duncan is an Alabama-based hair stylist and trained industry professional. Michelle Blaisure is a certified trichologist at Bosley Professional Strength. Christinah Nicolaisen is the CEO of haircare brand, Nikita being late is perhaps the most important etiquette no-no to avoid, showing up too early rarely has the intended result. It's not considered extra polite, as it might actually put pressure on the stylist to finish their other client quicker. If your goal is to be able to sneak in earlier or add on an extra service, remember that typically stylists' schedules are intentionally very tight. Therefore, you are more likely to have to wait until your appointment time or even a few minutes after. You can always call beforehand to see if the stylist will be available before your appointment, and the reception desk will be able to gauge if showing up early is worth your time. Additionally, make sure to schedule your appointments when your hair actually needs the attention—not too frequently and not to spread out. "After a while, your ends get damaged from wear-and-tear and begin to fray into split ends. Shorter hair needs to be trimmed about every four weeks (on average) to maintain the cut, with longer hair about every six to eight weeks is best," says Michelle Blaisure, certified trichologist at Bosley Professional Strength. Before you wonder, it's not considered helpful to offer to wash or blow-dry your hair instead of your stylist. Hair professionals follow a certain protocol when it comes to washing, cutting, and styling your hair for the best result overall, and it might affect the finished look if you're overly adamant about helping do your hair at the salon. Yes, even if you like to blow-dry your hair a certain way at home. While some people might feel uncomfortable or awkward asserting exactly what they want done to their hair, it's not considered 'trying to take your stylist's job.' In fact, a stylist can do a better job when you're able to communicate what cut or color you want, especially if you provide photo inspiration. Giving a clear direction is different than being bossy! Leza Duncan, a hair stylist based in Birmingham, Alabama, recommends: "Be prepared to really communicate with your stylist about what does and does not work for your hair. Start with a length you want, and find pictures of looks you could see yourself loving." It's good if you're able to feel comfortable at the salon, as long as you remember it's not your home. The hair products and tools that are displayed by your chair are for the stylist, and the products used can affect the overall result. Therefore, allow your stylist the opportunity to professionally choose how to proceed. If you're really wanting an extra spritz of hairspray before heading out the door, simply ask. Keep the product selecting to your home routine. "When you've got a night to yourself, try to work in a super moisturizing hair mask and invest some extra time in massaging the scalp as this will help to promote hair growth," says Christinah Nicolaisen, CEO of Nikita Hair. The myth that dirty hair takes hair color better is completely false, so no need to show up with fifth-day hair for the sake of fresh highlights. While second-day, or even third-day, hair can be totally acceptable, it's best to arrive without a ton of built-up hairspray. It also goes without saying, but don't head to the salon straight from the gym. Sweaty strands don't make for an overly enthusiastic stylist, and rightfully so! Duncan adds: "It's fine to use products you normally use for your everyday blow-dry, but stay away from a lot of hairspray." It might seem rude to voice concerns over your finished look directly to your stylist when you're unhappy, but stylists often actually prefer being allowed the opportunity to try to alleviate the issue. It's normal to not want to hurt anyone's feelings, but it's much better to communicate in the moment than to complain to the receptionist or call the salon the next day. Instead, speak up politely, noting the areas of concern that you think can be tweaked or improved before you leave. The salon has long been considered a sacred place of lighthearted chatting and gossip, but it's safe to say that some folks take that sentiment to the extreme. Stylists are not therapists or doctors, so make sure you keep the conversation on appropriate topics while confined to the salon chair—for both of your sakes! Don't let your desire to document your new 'do interrupt the process. Taking selfies is totally acceptable after the service is done, but avoid moving your arms and positioning during the cut or coloring in order to take photos. Additionally, if your stylist is going to be in the photo, make sure to ask their permission. While it is generally considered rude to be talking on the phone at the salon, it is fine to read or answer the occasional text during your service as long as you're not moving your arms and head too much. Stylists are understanding that many people are busy with responsibilities, so it does not hurt their feelings if you need to take a break from chatting to check your email or messages. As with all etiquette rules, just use your best judgement. Read the original article on Southern Living
