I have an inside corner apartment in a courtyard building, so I can practically reach into my neighbor's living room window. I can see his TV while sitting on my couch, and even if I couldn't, his...
You can also cover offensive tile counter tops and back splashes with a few coats of thinset and then do a distressed paint effect, and top with polyurethane. The apartment I just bought had hideo...
It's a really beautiful, basic idea. What would make this wildly expensive? It looks like it could be done with very similar results out of Ikea laminate shelving.
I love that purple is becoming more popular. It can be very dramatic, but because it's both a warm and cool color it does a great job of stepping back to tie together more vibrant elements in a room.
I don't have a problem with these at all. I stayed at a great place in Phoenix, AZ called Hotel Indigo, which had the 3/4 glass wall and a circle cut in it so you could reach in and turn on the wa...
You bought a meth lab?! I read the kitchen article linked to above, but I think there's got to be a deeper story behind this choice.

I moved last Thursday and I've been staring at a box of socks and scarves in the corner of my bedroom since then. I've run out of room, and while I'd love to throw out all my winter stuff right no...
So hot! If it were anywhere near reasonably priced, I'd snap this up in a second. I have sconces in my living room so I don't need table lamps. This would be perfect to add a lot of interest to ...
Wow! That's a gorgeous chair. Before I realized it was wire, I thought it was a Ghost Chair (from Conran Shop, MOMA, etc.) with custom cushions. If you don't find the real thing, those might be ...
My girlfriend and I sign this song for a week before going to Ikea, and a week after, and show it to everyone we know.
Just some oak and some pine and a hand full of Norsemen...
My family has this problem as well. My mom has been fighting against her mother, who is a compulsive accumulator of the most heinous cheap crap, for decades. We realized there is no stopping her,...
I've never been this kind of nitpick person on AT, but I have to say I HATE the use of "sammy." What are we, 5 year olds? It's as bad as calling mashed potatoes "mashies."
OK, I'm ...
Good God, paint! I grew up with a living room that was solid wood paneling. It was high-quality solid wood, as I can see this is, but it was just too overpowering and outdated. My mother made th...
I had a delicious smoked salt sprinkled over a very buttery rosemary onion tart at a dinner party this weekend. The host brought out more in a bowl and I dumped it over sliced avocado...a tomato.....

Yes! As my girlfriend always says, "I'm a grown up, and I get to decide what that means."

Spectacular! Can anyone tell the cost of the renovation, and any sources of the materials?
