Just looking at it quickly, if you wanted drapes, you can mount a compression rod in the window opening.

IKEA usually states that remote controls work through the glass. A $40 remote control extender works even better and you can use the remote anywhere in your pad.

Awesome. Get your credit references in order :)

I often wonder the same thing modernguy. For $1500 you can mount a pretty nice 32" LCD TV to the wall with a MacMini running just about anything you want. -J

Ok, this is from a hard-core neutralist and monochromist, but I think there is a lot to like in that room. I like how the blue pulls in from the dining room to the couch, which adds depth to the s...

I have LEDs in my house, have for years now. Less is more.

I'm all for showing off tech bling, heck I got a house full of LED lights. I think those speakers are a bit out of scale for the setup though. I understand creating a sweet spot but everything ap...

I've made this a few times and the bread makes all the difference. Use a potato bread and let it dry out (or put in in a 200 degree oven for an hour or so). Another way to present it is to make i...

Nice work Elaine, the coffee table looks great!

If anyone saw Nip/Tuck last night, maybe it provides some insight...

The Pax system has both dresser drawers and shelves, and the Stolmen system of floor-to-ceiling poles now has wood veneer components (at least here in Boston).

I guess I am very AT en vogue. Not only have I already employed that solution, I have the exact same 4 remotes in my glass. Comcast, Tivo, a Samsung Plasma, and (I think) the Olevia Blu-Ray player!

I recently did a number of tests with a $60 HDMI cable and a $3 one from Amazon. These including looking at video signals under a 20x maginfying glass, testing fast motion, testing black, playing ...

My grandparents always had four swings in their garage. It was so much fun. Ok I'm dating myself here, but I distinctly remember swinging to Don Johnson and Barabara Streisand's duet "Til I Loved...

I with all the pro-singles out there. I have been living by myself for 4 years now and just can't imagine it any other way. The only drawback I can see is cleaning the whole house by myself, but ...

I like how they are, the contrasting colors are interesting. If it were me, I'd probably paint the table white instead.

I worry that I eat enough Gummi Bears for the toxic thing to apply to me. I'd eat that chandelier yesterday.

Mattab, The shower head is a hand shower mounted on a rod (you can see it in the tub). That said, if the glass is too expensive (and it can get crazy expensive) I say track on the ce...

As I was driving home a couple of nights ago, I noticed how many houses were completely adorned with all clear lights. I started thinking that en masse when all the other houses have it, it looks ...

I used to do this when I was in college as well. For the most part a pen and a steady hand can make the hole. You can usually buy a gross of ping pong balls for about $10, sometimes less. I also...
