What about turning to our tried and tested small space solutions? How about a potted garden on the back porch?

I have friends who need to vacation here.

My boyfriend, who I just moved in with, has this EXACT same problem, although it was a matter of a cluttered and outdated entertainment center that was holding his OLD tv with the new flat screen s...

I have a set really similar to this! http://photos.charmedseed.net/05-23-09/IMG_1465.jpg They were acquir...

Yay, hometown! I love the Cheesman Park area, what a great representative!

Ah, thank you! I got the impression they couldn't be found in the US, but there are a dozen places around me that have! Awesome!

Can you get these? Where would you find one?

Wow, that's a lot of savings! I like to see this, though. Every once in a while I see myself getting 'high maintenance' and realize it's time to back off a little! More being, less b...

AUGH, I love it so much. I dream of having an outdoor space like that someday...

I'm so with you! Firefly is one of my favorite shows! If you want to buy new, but inexpensive, can I suggest World Market or Overstock.com? I think you can get a more out of a dollar...

What a beautiful place! I'm utterly enchanted with the clawfoot tub in the center of the room there! It seems so relaxing.

I'm the polar opposite of pack rat; the current economy just reinforces what I've always done. I typically purge every six months... hey, if I haven't see it in that long, I probably don't need it...

I would do this in a heartbeat. I had friends who had chickens in their yard, and they had no bug problems, and fresh eggs on top of it all. Chickens are great pest control!

Why not just save a book by tying a ribbon around the bottom cover to keep it up tight against the book on the bottom, instead of gluing? Even a rubber band would work! Cheap, easy, no books ruin...
