I agree about the ceiling fan. There are nicer ones out there. My husband lived in Dallas for a year or so. He knew it was time to leave when the speedometer needle in his car melted from the heat....

Most carpets are some sort of rectangular shape. In fact, there are fairly standard sizes for most ready-made area rugs. So I don't know why you're picking on FLOR. I like the fact that you can mak...

Why pay more? The IKEA version looks great. And for that price you can afford the swimming pool to go with it. Well, at least the deposit on one! :)

Love the look - especially the mix of color.

I love good re-use. But these? They've been done before and the drawer-stool, while a nice idea in concept, will never work in real life. Ho hum, just my humble opinion. :)

Bemz has a great concept. But you can have one made on your own for less $$$. Still, you can't beat the convenience of just ordering. And her fabrics are good.

I have a Hemnes bed and an IKEA mattress in my beach house, which I rent. I love it. It looks great, was very nicely priced and has held up really well. That's important in a rental where you can'...

This is a great idea. I have a beach home that's a weekly rental. Last year I put all the cleaning things in a closet only to find them next to the fridge at the end of the season. I guess that's a...

They look good enough to eat, but nothing beats Tide HE. I want my clothes clean. Not eco-friendly gray.

To me it isn't that the quality of Pottery Barn is bad, it's that there stores are everywhere. And their style is very bland. It's like buying a sweater that everyone else has. Also, I...

I think my mother used to have those salt and pepper shakers. I won't tell her that they're worth something now. I think she threw them out a long time ago.

I do this a lot - maybe because I'm just a little bit lazy. Gee, I meant to hang that painting - but after a while it kind of looks good that way. :)

I think it's vintage. It looks like something from 1970's SCAN, a Scandinavian design store which was popular back then.

I agree. Just say no.

Keep it white and add some towels in the same hue as the tile, but vary the shade, so they're a bit darker.

To me it's a gimmick. And I really hate gimmicks. The sink looks pretty enough on its own, the stones seem to be there only for people to say, "Look - stones!" It might work at a res...

They're fluffy and they hold a nice shape. I guess my designer secret isn't so secret. :)

I love custom. Not everyone is a DIY-er. The lamps are a nice, basic style - a natural choice for a custom program. It's fun to see the expansion of customizable products. Never before have we been...

First, you need to declutter. It's clear this picture was taken after a party - baby shower? So, I'm sure it doesn't usually look like this. Make the fireplace wall the focal point by ...

Groovy, Baby! Whip out the satin sheets, turn on the lava lamp, and crank up the Marvin Gaye. I'm ready for Client 9.
