First child got a bed when she was 2, and her own room at 3. Second child has had a bed/crib all along, but is just starting to spend nighttime sleep there instead of just naps. He's 2.

For those with milk and cheese conundrums, did you know you can freeze both? They will lose something in texture but not in taste, so they're better to add to cooking than to use straight after the...

It'll certainly smell good! I don't know how well it would work for blocking light, and as others have pointed out, there might be a rain issue. But maybe she would never open the window with the c...

I believe in cosleeping (says the woman whose 2 older children are in her bed right now, though they have beds of their own). I think it's important to point out some flaws in the actual facts of a...

YAY! Evie and I will be there! (She was 2 last time we did it in 06!) Hmmm... she is too big for a stroller now, so we'll see how it goes, that's a looooong walk for a 5 year old!

Completely fantastic!

YAY! Happy Birthday sweet boy!

Charm school I would say hot, but this isn't charm school, which forks, proper place setting, when to wear gloves and what length. This is entering and exiting elevators, and the like. That I think...

I voted it down purely on price. At a quarter the price, it would be a luxury item. I understand that quilting takes a lot of skill and time... but that just means that it's a poor choice of materi...

This is where Apartment Therapy tends to split on everything. The designers and architects who do this for a living and are horrified that their life's work can be/is being "knocked off" or made av...

I used to have this kind of arrangement, but even bigger. I would move it down, but I disagree with the above. I think the lamps can stay out of it, but you might have to futz with th...

I can see how it would be attractive with the right sorts of papers on it, and how it could be very functional. I do wonder about fire safety though. Are the rings positioned far enough away to be ...

Um, I too believe in breastfeeding. Have kids that pretend nurse their dolls (and their trains and their books for that matter). But this is just freaky in my opinion. I mean, if you want to have t...

yeah, I don;t really get it. If you're just peeing on your plants, you will kill them, despite the claims of mothers who let their children pee in public playgrounds (ewwwww!). Urine is not sterile...

I can see the arguments for no screen time/limited screen time. That means no/limited DVDs, and YouTube too. Claiming that computer or DVDs about commercial characters are better than cable educati...

Metro Mini's on the Upper East Side if you have a small child to shop for--slings, natural crunchy toys, cloth diapers, etc. Strand bookstore has a kids department which is sometimes f...

I do baking trays and muffin tins. Nothing that it would be a problem to leave in there while the oven is in use. And only a few of them, so I can throw some rolls in to warm without having to take...

We have about 650, 1 dog, 2 kids. I'd like 1 more dog and maybe 1 more kid someday. I would love to have some outdoor space and a guest room. I guess my ideal would be 800-1000 square feet main hou...

That is AWESOME!

As for how many designs... perhaps like they do for art shows, someone can submit up to 3 or 5 products, but you will post only 1 per designer into the competition. Or else only submit 1. Dozens fr...
