Funny coincidence, I had a very similar idea for hanging all my kiddos' artwork. I tried to describe it to my husband, but I didn't do a very good job, because I couldn't win him over. Thanks for t...

Lemonade Sandwich, I have that print! It's framed and hanging in my hallway, in amongst a gallery of family photographs. I love that bear.

"Have one made from reclaimed wood - That's what most are nowadays anyway." Yep, what bepsf said. I bought a HUGE harvest-style table from a local carpenter, who made it out of reclaim...

What a funny coincidence. I was just leafing through a back issue of Dwell and re-reading their article about this house. What an amazing building. Thanks for posting all these images. It's great t...

Beautiful. I especially love the first design. I've been trying to figure out what kinds of holiday cards to make this year, and I think I've found my inspiration!

Whoa, medusa12120 et al. What's with all the harshing? You do realize that this is someone's beloved HOME, don't you?

Oooh! The train pattern in the first photo is making my heart go pitty-pat.

Selena, your comment reminded me that I wanted to include a link to atomictonic's home tour on Flickr. I just added the link to the end of the post.

I got a Banana Guard as a gag gift a few years ago, and I've been using it ever since to schlep bananas to work and whatnot -- even before I had kids. (What can I say? I love bananas.) It's awesome...

I, too, thought it was some kind of learning space, and assumed it belonged to a family that homeschools or is into Montessori. This seems to be a problem for some commenters -- why is that? To me,...

I agree with inkstainedwriter. You don't want to get too embroiled in a particular theme. (There was a three-month period when my then-three-year-old would have burst with excitement to have a W...

So much negativity! On a Friday, no less! I grew up on a farm, and I think this idea is hilarious -- in a good way. Totally awesome idea for temporary outdoor seating in the summertime.

@TVsJessica: Ha! My husband built a huge chalkboard for an odd corner in our kitchen a couple of years ago, and we still love it and use it all the time. At the lower level, the kids d...

I grew up on a farm. Once, while practicing my highwire act on the fence surrounding the pig pen, I fell and landed (of course) on the wrong side of the fence. As someone who has literally been cov...

@fresh.air: Ha! My four-year-old saw these photos and said the same thing.

I have a very small cabin, too. We have a trundle bed that fits under a daybed in the main space. Is that an option for you?

@anmar: Have you considered a shorter custom-made bed? You can build (or have built) a platform bed surprisingly cheaply. A custom cut foam mattress is also pretty affordable, with the advantage th...

That is an awesome idea. Thanks for this!

We have a five-year-old Natuzzi sofa very similar in design to the Domino. At the risk of sounding like a downer, while it's a lovely-looking sofa, it's also very poorly made. The internal frame is...

@Swordspoint: Have you considered a traditional schoolroom-style clock? I have one in my kitchen, and I swear it's the reason why my four-year-old is already figuring out how to tell time.
