pxlchk1: that was my first thought, too! Hopefully it's for an actual fire and therefore gets moved around at least reasonably often.

oh, but, science geek, you are not saying that everything in the whole world is made out of chemicals are you? EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW :P So Skittles aren't vegan, then?

Target is really good at ripping stuff off - down to straight out copying fabric designs and using them on their bags, chairs, etc. They've done it to Amy Butler and Heather Bailey, who do NOT hav...

I can see the second one working in some of my friends homes - you know, one of those houses that is clearly for living in, where people don't put too much emphasis on what things are for when they...

Love! I peeked into my cousin's roommate's bedroom the other day and he had a similar green chair in the corner. I was impressed by 1) how finished and balanced it made the room look ...

But... you was those things SOMEWHERE, right, and if you do them in, say, the laundry sink and then clean it, there is probably more residual bacteria etc. I understand the instinctive reaction, b...

Peach, all the way. And that weird rusty heritage red that so many rental bathrooms seem to be here in Australia - also Kelly/heritage green. ICK!

The baby powder thing is such a good idea! I am trying that when I get home.

I really hate the word 'tribal'. So many undertones, and not in a good way.

Ooooh, colour! The possibilities are endless. I can't wait to oggle the finished product. You could paint little animals hiding on the treads! Or letters, or numbers...

Does she mean 'homey'?

One of our favourite karaoke bars turned out to have a meth lab in it. All I could ever smell was musty mouldy carpet - was that the lab, or just an excellent cover. It was totally gross, btw, I ...

I think whatever makes you comfortable in a new place - whether that's a traditional cleansing or making sure your favourite wine and music is easy to get to - is really valuable. It's easy to for...

Our kitchen/dining area is really dark, and there's no room for a standing lamp etc. I've been thinking of running rope or fairy lights either accross the ceiling (the lighting is old ...

I love that quilt so much. Could there maybe be a round up of traditional quilts in non-traditional colours? There seem to be a few popping up around the sites.

It's GLORIOUS and it would give me nightmares if I had to live there. But I love it.

I've been allergic to pink for most of my life because of the connotations - as a decidedly NOT girly girl, I wanted to prove I was different. It IS a feminine colour, even if that's 'only' a soci...

Oh, I love that! I am having a fling with pink and orange, but I'm a cool colours gal, too many warm colours in a room make me tense and cranky. Maybe I'll play with those combos, though...

I really like it, but I would never desire to own it. However, as with lots of the hot or nots, while I vote 'not', I think the design is well thought out and beautiful. Therefore, hot! I like t...

Mostly knitting, a side order of sewing and a sprinkling of embroidery and jewellery making! I find I will pick up different sorts of projects for different seasons and moods. But there's always ...
