Two of us, two of them (dachshunds), one bed: bliss.

A friend, an avid gardener, orders her own worms (the rural post office calls immediately to tell her the worms have arrived) and, lo and behold, gets her castings for free.

I, too, love this shower and could see using it an large bathroom where the drain is integrated into a slightly recessed floor and, when the shower is not in use, the desire is for maximum openness...

I agree with those commenting that some of the yellows are too bright, too perky. And click212 is absolutely on target, regretting loss of the elegant Mercedes Benz color, a butter yellow that we s...

Has to be "now". Just has to be.

Our previous house was painted several times. A tenant, an artist, used to regularly include a small watercolor of the house with her monthly rent. The house's massing and fenestration were always ...

I want to rush into this bathroom, turn the water on full blast as if to wash my hands, and watch as the water sails across the space transforming the the toilet paper partition into a wall of papi...

The view is clearly doing the heavy lifting here - the rest, well, it's already on its way to the realm of with-enough-money-you-can...

This is the sanest and most serene house I've seen in ages and a really strong reminder, to me at any rate, of why I visit this web site. If Stacy could distill the essence of the place into a bott...

It's not bad, but I preferred the black background, agree with the comment regarding the "next" button staying in one place, and recall that at one point a viewer could fine-tune the speed of the s...

LBhirise and plain Jane are right on target: IKEA's kitchens are terrific, less expensive and impressive as can be in terms of ingenuity and quality. Home Depot is a Johnny-come-lately in the kitch...

We had a glorious four-poster from Crate and Barrel (around $1600 - king size) but the two dachshunds could not possible reach it and we found our toes didn't even touch the floor when we sat uprig...

Thank you all - coincidentally this was something I was about to embark upon and it was good to get a quick refresher. Always something serendipitous about Apartment Therapy!

In theory this is a pleasant enough solution, but the prospect of dining at such a corporate presence would make dinner a rather bleak prospect. It certainly does not in any way reflect the fact th...

Chocolates are best. Simply open a large box (one or two pounds) and place it on a table next to one's reading chair. Assorted chocolates work well, but if one has a favorite, an entire box of simi...

Absolutely right! One of the many benefits of downsizing, going green, promoting sustainability, or just simplifying the clutter in one's environment - a major boon is time, time that can be put to...

Talk about "shocks", this is an alarming post, to me at least. I just purchased four of these chairs (from DWR) in cherry and assumed they were built to last. Given the individual price of each cha...

Somehow replicating the look of rammed earth with paint misses the wonderful point(s) Regina has made. I think the walls, interior and exterior, are gorgeous, the virtues of the material amazing, a...

What? It's a computer workstation? I'm going to buy one but intend to use it as a liquor cabinet - wall-mounted, storage for glasses, olives, etc. And it has a lock! What could be more perfect? I r...

In response to Aimee's Petite Maison: I'm lucky enough to be the design "decider" in our household. My significant other invariably says "You decide, you know best." Rather than take this as carte ...
