I love the stripe and door, and while I might not have gone whole-hog and added the label it does appeal to the 1960s Batman fan within me.

Honestly, the veneer doesn't look that bad in these pictures. It's the clutter that gets in the way. The butterfly picture in front of the fireplace could be a neat idea if it was actually the si...

Comments have a pretty solid coverage on the ridiculousness here, but though I'd highlight this one: "Never cleaning your door handles: Who touched your door handles today...Yeah, now ...

I'm always amused during any debate regarding the sustainability of Ikea and similar furniture because all of my dressers were originally purchased by my grandparents from what was essentially the ...

If it *was* designed specifically with Barbara Bush in mind, see if you can track down who the Bush family hired to redecorate the White House. If they're still in business and still have the deta...

If I don't see prices, especially for larger items, then I don't buy. I take it to mean that the item is priced more than I'm willing to pay. Bargaining is part of the yard sale experience, but h...

Twicelight, you are not alone! Especially if my list includes a lot of things that are tricky and likely not to get done immediately I'll throw in some "easy" goals--things like brushing my teeth ...

Unless he was joking around about the "floating" complaints... yeeeeeeah, no. If any of his inventions had actually managed that then he'd now have more than enough cash to move out of the apartm...

I have that Lowes chair. Not my ideal color choice (I figure I'll repaint it once I have more of my patio put together) but def. my ideal price, and it lounges great. It's noticably lower than ot...

I grew up with wall to wall white carpeting (leaning towards a very light grey, which helped cover up any traffic paths our bare feet would wear) and only had one major mishap that Spot Shot couldn...

I would definitely need to see the specs on how resistent it is to fire and mold, but I love the picture of the house in it's bare stud and bale form. Reminds me of all the straw bale forts my dad...

Love the orange one, but the rest look like something you could snag just as easily off of etsy, especially the corset one. Main problem design wise for me is that the chosen images don't flow wel...

Also, this completely sidesteps the question that must go hand-in-hand with this debate: is it ethical or even legal to buy those pieces and take them out of their source culture in the first plac...

If that were the case then not only would such items be limited to people who could afford to travel to such places, but it would be further limited to people who could afford the costs of bringing...

I've also got the Vallo (in a really dark pink) and have loved it so far. It's relatively slender, pitcher-like profile also makes it perfect for placing in the sink to fill. I've also seen sever...

I've been saving my pennies for this rug for a bit. Love the crisp edges of the primary orange damask and the overall oversized pattern. No experience with Ballard Designs, though, so if morina i...

Is that orange oval thing a bread box? Whatever it is, its fabulous! Where'd you find it?

All of the positive results I've seen attributed to the Master Cleanse could either be ascribed to the placebo affect or, as with Talula's husband, other life changes that coincided with the "clean...

Yolio, Things like car accidents, break downs, or getting lost do require a cell phone--either yours or somebody elses--in areas without public phones, where it isn't safe to try to ac...

I'd place a bookcase or shelf around/under it so that it looks like a box sitting on a shelf. Then you could disguise it as a bookend, clock, picture frame, whatever.
