oh Dot--I don't know if you'll ever read this but I loved your comments!! As a pre-PhD and daughter of 2 professors I laughed and laughed--and made a note to use my library card more, get rid of so...

Help. please! I have a vintage fiberglass chair (knock-off of a Saarinen tulip arm chair) and my toddler got fiberglass stuck in her from it. I love it dearly but I also love my daughter. Is there ...

Loverly! Funny, my daughter's playspace in the living room is set up almost exactly like yours.. Tip though--I think the bathroom needs some art!

This is how I feel about the kitchen! If the kitchen is a mess my head is a mess--if it is clean I could be knee deep in clutter and I would feel sane. The first thing I do when I move...

throw, oops

No offense but I love my sterlite bin from the container store. It was $12, it has lasted forever, it has latches to hold a bag, and when it gets dirty I through it in the shower with a little dish...

Need some help. Moving into my new co-op and the current finished are mostly fake brass (chrome in the bathroom and stainless sink in the kitchen) Eventually I would love to change all...

What a great list--some I do and some I will start doing! As a single mom I especially appreciate it because it always seems like there is so much to do and no one to help.

textiles--they store easily, can be rotated, and can totally change the decor in seconds

Agreed--finally some wow factor!! Very well done. I love that it feels so mixed in styles but that I can hardly recognize a single piece of your furniture--without it looking MCM as well...

I very much like the space--I am sensing a lot of anthropologie? Is that correct or just similar? Also, can you id the overhead fixture in the kitchen? Love the throw pillows in the li...

agree with rockypondgirl--well said. BTW--this is in the awesome MOMA exhibit going on right now, I think titles "elasticity of the mind" or something like that. I saw it a few weeks a...
