paperbackswap. Seriously has changed my life. I now read more, and have less 'one-read' book to clutter my apartment. Best service I have used so far. Plus if you have loads of DVDs and CDs, you ca...

where the heck are these in sf? I've never heard of them, sounds awesome!

Wow, ThatGrrl, that is EXACTLY what I did! For a second there, I almost thought that I wrote your message, then had amnesia. So weird. Maybe I'm you from another dimension?

I tried working on the floor back in college when I was a TA grading paper. I had a teeny apartment, with no room for a desk, so I though the coffee table floor cushions would work. NOT AT ALL. M...

Get in contact with a place like Hansen's Lamps (http://www.hansenlamp.com/). They do custom lamps for people all over the world, and have very reasonable prices. They might even have the shade you...

I think the purpose of this post was to highlight ways to bring affordable luxury into every day tasks. I find it strange that people immediately see crochet and think 'old-fashioned' or 'country'....

If I like the person, I'd be fine with them doing pretty much anything, except rummaging through my dirty laundry. If they are comfortable and happy, it makes ME comfortable and happy. ...

michellectrent - call animal control on your crazy cat lady. I am a crazy cat lady in training, and am all for caring for cats, but it is totally irresponsible to feed a stray cat population and no...

Interesting idea. Looks stunning at night, but I think during the day it would simply look like a bunch of plastic bags tied to sticks...

This is one of those things that seem interesting in concept, but HORRIBLE in execution. Reminds me of one time when I went to a 'build your own pizza' place. I thought pesto crust sounded good, an...

Thanks for the inspiring house tour. I live in a teeny tiny apartment, so I can't have as much fun stuff to look at. I'd love to come visit and just check out all your cool finds. This...

I've definitely considered trying something similar, but allowing purchases from small, local retailers too. Whenever I go thrift store shopping or hit up the flea markets, I'm always overwhelmed w...

Which Target? This might just make me rent a zipcar and head to Target, but I'd love to know which one! I need to see if the Solitude Spearmint coordinates with some swatches I have...

@nyc cat What a great idea! Now I'm having visions of ornately framed moss "pictures" hanging in my bathroom. Fun!

Are the plates ceramic or plastic (melamine?) Target often times has ADORABLE dishes, but only in that plastic material, which I've always had a distaste for. The whole collection is ...

Neat DIY idea! Not sure I'd shell out the $$ when it would only take a few spare minutes to make, but I suppose some people don't even have 5 minutes free time...

I want to live there! The colors are just perfect.

The Ikea FROST drying rack is seriously my favorite ikea purchase of all time. Fits ALL my wet clothes (and I basically just use the dryer for towels), and folds up very thinly. We can slide it und...

I second the built-in look, although I think leaving the middle section as open shelves rather than all of it covered in doors would look great. Then you could use the shelving for display and the ...

The corona is really quite nice for how affordable it is. I bought the 'Rochelle' from Crate and Barrel, (LOVE IT) but my cat has already ripped the arms to shreds, boo! So, in a year or two, when ...
