I love this kitchen, and it's given me some new ways to think about my own circa-1948 kitchen (sans dishwasher). I'm a bit confused by gettingthere's comment....and suddenly wondering...

I have the Ikea Stenstorp, too. It works great! I wanted to be sure I got one that was actually counter height.

Yes, the potato leek soup is a standby (in fact, it's what's for dinner tomorrow night). I'm a vegetarian, and I'm forever grateful to Julia's advice on how to prepare brussels sprouts...

I love this apartment. I thought the kitchen was the best ever, and then I saw that wall of storage in the living room - be still my heart!

I had a dorm room a lot like this, actually (and yes, it was at BU). I love the idea of a sofa in front of the fireplace, with maybe a chair to face it (better for all those heart-to-...

ethicalcannibal, if you come up with a good way to do it, please share! I'm not especially crafty but think this would be a really fun project.

I like that compact fridge/freezer. It's very inspiring to see someone living small this way. Sure, it's a little overwhelming visually, but I would never knock it - reminds me that large, spare sp...

Lawrence has a great space, and great stuff. And I happen to think it's impressive that he goes sans pillow: I've tried and failed. I spent Saturday afternoon at Ikea fi...

"As a single person.... we've "? I'm usually okay with the second-person plural, but this is going a bit too far.

I use my dryer for storage.

Maybe you could use a clothes rack to pin Holiday cards to....I'm trying here, but I agree with all the previous posts: this is just sad. My "Charlie Brown Christmas Tree" (i.e., branches I found o...

I remember really coveting Punky Brewster's room. She had that decorated window shade...the awesome bed....stuff hanging all over the place.... Monica's colorful apartment was pretty g...

I haven't tried this particular rack (and would like to!), but I have gone through quite a few wooden racks. I finally decided to go all out and buy a big folding stainless steel one. I'm so glad I...

My husband insists that our plunger be handy, so as to avoid embarrassment if there's an incident. Our plunger is nasty and ugly and, worst of all, won't fit in the cabinet. He grew up in really ol...

Love this tour - it's one of the most welcoming-looking apartments I've seen. Thanks for sharing!

Maybe I should do what nikkicole did and take it again...mine wasn't really accurate ("country casual"...mentioned vintage teacups. I would NEVER arrange vintage teacups). But then, I...

I'm running for my copy of "The Age of Innocence." God I wish I could eat oysters at that table.

I really appreciate seeing a fresh, different kind of style. Thanks for sharing! It's not my taste, but I think that's the point....she's made an inspiring, expressive home. Personall...

I don't have a cell phone, microwave, AC, or TV currently, and we're about to move to a house without a dryer or dishwasher, either. If I didn't have access to a beach house three hours away, I'd p...

I always unplug and let it get pretty much down to zero again. Doesn't that help the battery last longer?
