I used to work for a company that used photographers, and this is not a minor issue. There are major legal contracts about how those photos can be used. We had photos that could be used on the webs...

I love that piece. Take it to a good furniture repairer. I know a guy who could totally repair that, but he's not anywhere near LA! Anna's ideas are good ones, too. I wouldn't just lea...

Guys, I live in JH, and that is an interior courtyard, not the front of the building. Yes, it's winter, so it's not the prettiest, but it's nicer to look out into a courtyard with greenery instead ...

Wow, lucky you! What a wonderful space. I also like what you've done with it, though I would add some color to the bedroom with bedding and artwork. I am green with envy. :)

Maybe I am misunderstanding, but it looks as if that room is only used as a closet, and the other side is the bedroom. I would install a door if you are not renting. If you are, I think the curtain...

Evany, I think you'll find the neighborhood has changed a lot in just 7 years (fellow JHer here, late to the party). Glad to see the 'hood represented so well! I think most of the apartments in the...

I hate this house. The only good thing is some of the wallpaper. The bedroom looks like some spec house in the suburbs, especially with that horrible roof line.

That's an amazing painting. That kid is going places.

This was in either Met Home, House Beautiful, or Elle Decor a while ago. I can't remember the details, but it's owned by a youngish guy and I believe it's in NYC.

I think that is absolutely hideous.

I have sort of mixed feelings about this. It's great that she encourages her children to be creative, but the fact that she sounds a tad disappointed that they haven't seized birds from Takashimaya...

Vintage is fine (although definitely not my cup of tea). New? No.

It's my daughter's first birthday today, and this would be the perfect heirloom for her. Pleeasse?

True, Edieb. The Thin Man couldn't get much more unrealistic, and I love those movies. Great apartment, great 30s clothes, drunk as skunks all the time, and yet still solving crimes! ...

Honestly, for most of the existence of the world (until about the last 50 years), it was because, if you had sex, you ended up having kids. After that, I'm not sure. Everyone has different reasons.

Bluestar, that's (unfortunately) totally normal for custom-made blinds. That is why I bought fabric and a pattern and am going to a seamstress to have mine made!

It totally depends on the kid, imo, and I don't think 9 is young for a mature 9-year-old who has grown up in the city and knows the subway routes. Part of me thinks all this hysteria about parentin...

Or post your email, if you are okay with that! If not, just let me know to post it or not.

Ooh! I don't mean to schill, but I have this fabric. A LOT of this fabric. I think it's Osborne and Little Sylphe. If you want me to list it in the classifieds, let me know by posting here. I tried...
