If you want simple, you could just get lattice strip at a lumberyard and piece different sizes together to create your own window trim. If you want just a little bit of a traditional touch, I'd ju...

I agree with Birdy. The shade matches a lamp line West Elm came out with a few years ago. I have 2 in the wall-sconce version.

Just some practical considerations you should keep in mind: Moving an electrical panel is near impossible in NYC unless if you are on the top floor, so wherever it is in your apartmen...

I don't think moving the kitchen would be worth the cost or hassle. If you wanted to make the kitchen more of a separate space, you could knock out the closet in the bedroom, and enter from that c...

I'd be wary of Roman shades because when fully open, there is still at least 6" of it hanging over the top of the glass. I had Romans on my windows for a few years, and before that I had long curt...

I have the same condition at my window - except mine has 2 windows on the right wall and 1 window on the left. I have solar roller shades that mount on the underside of the window fr...

I used Airwave (that's the company's name - they send me postcards in the mail which is why I use them), and they come and clean and tune up air conditioners. My price was just over $60 for my wal...

First, I'd check with handle manufacturers just to see if maybe there exists a refrigerator drawer pull that has the same spread as the existing one. If that doesn't work, a definitely...

I would move the clothes rod up as high as you can reach - maybe around 6'-6" H, organize your clothing by length. That will leave you space on the floor of your closet to store your boots standin...

On the plus side, it will be easier to run any wiring through the ceiling for lighting, speakers, etc. if you have to build out the ceiling.

I would paint all the millwork and the bottoms of any gyp bd soffits white, and then I'd paint the rest of the wall surfaces off white. If you are using Benjamin Moore paints, Super White would be...

I could really use this! My coat closet has a sagging wooden rod with paint bits flaking off every time I hang or unhang something on it. I need a major redo!

Those look like ZZ plants.

I have a similar corner window except mine has 2 windows at along the longer side. I feel having individual shades at each window might break it up a bit too much. It would look more unified with...

Adding plants always softens up and adds life to rooms.

Re: luckycharmer's comment - Usually when a kitchen has a vent and a window, the window is a lot line window, meaning if a tall building were to go up next door, it could potentially block your kit...

I wouldn't permanently cover up that vent. It pulls air out of your kitchen, allowing for new fresh air to replace the old. Perhaps an alternate would be to put a removable or flip up panel (mayb...

I would be wary of getting an 18"W refrigerator. If you go to the specs on the Northland website, you will see that the refrigerator has an interior width of 13 1/2". There are a lot of things I ...

I'd recommend either a coffee table or ottoman. A friend bought this curved acrylic coffee table for her place, and it looks good:

You need about 22" for hanging clothes depth. I would put a clothes rod or two on each side (perpendicular to the door) and put a 24"Wx12"D shelf system down the middle (behind the closet door on ...
