2. Stock the bathroom(s) with the essentials (toilet paper, shower curtain, towels, toothbrushes, soap)
3. Set up music and technology (music makes unpacking easier)
Diminutive? You call more than 900 square feet in San Francisco diminutive? In any major city - San Francisco, LA, New York, etc. - 900 square feet is a castle. If you think this is diminutive, th...
Worst. Site. Ever.
Great pictures, so I popped over to the site to browse, and maybe, shop.
Sooooo. Slowwwww. Best example of form over function. Especially as you can't s...
I agree. I won't bring home anything with fabric for fear of bugs. But I have found an old 1940s banker's chair, tables and vanity chairs from the 1950's, and an enormous mirror. But my best finds ...
Have a First Night bag. Put a roll of paper towels (assuage your guilt by using recycled ones), a roll of toilet paper, soap, enough pet food for a few days, can opener, pot, mugs, bowls, screwdriv...
Even if you have a smaller place without a ton of furnishings and boxes and you are doing the packing, you are well into thousand$ territory. And that's not the real concern. The real concern is fi...
Creative as these are, I really hate to see anyone deface a book. Once a book, even an old one, is treated as nothing more than a raw material void of any intellectual beauty, then it loses all of ...
You know, I was wracked with questions - did I owe rudebega an enormous apology or not?
So I looked up rudebega's profile.
He or he posted a single comment right before th...
It might not translate into reality (someone mentioned rain, I believe ... !) but it is oh so clever.
At least give her a gold star for creativity. And patience! She deserves it.
Apologies, all. I did, and still do, find rutebega's whitewash of this absurdly costly kitty litter box suspect. Ditto her comment about writing like a journalist. She does not. I know. I am a one....
Funny, redebega, how when I originally checked your very recently opened profile, your comment about the chairs was not there. I know. It is in my history.
But it's there, now.
Gee rudebega, you mean they didn't give you one for free? And you just opening an Apartment Therapy account and doing all this work on their behalf?
That's a shame. Especially at $180.
This is a wonderful looking box, but I really think these things are designed by people who have never had a cat.
Problem #1: $180. For a litter box. $180. Plastic. Litter. Box. $180.
Oh, that kitchen, that oppressive kitchen. I want, no NEED, to put at least three-quarters of that stuff away.
Than I can work at that nice island or appreciate that lovely window.
I don't know if I am a big believer in breakfast ... but I am in brioche!
So much so that I asked our chef to teach us how to make it (I'm a culinary school student).
Alas...
Here's my best tip - cook everything in advance. I once had a party where eveyrhting was cooked at the last minute and I spent more time with my pots and pans than my guests.
Which, co...

It's both ugly and a desecration of the noble book. Donate the books to the library. Go buy real art.

I adore the galvanized steel pipe Menorah. Texturally brilliant, creatively great, and, well, just adorably fun.

Sigh. I never find the good stuff at garage sales and junk stores. Just the junk. Ah well. Cheers!
