I've seen small jars of jam, lemon curd, honey, etc at World Market. I'm sure you can find them in other places too.
I've been served Bonne Maman miniature jams at nicer hotels, and I ...
A note about the name: NYLON is already doing the New York / London split thing in the name, so that's the first thing that occurred to me... not that the name was bad so much as that it was deriva...
Cats? Any and everywhere. We've given over the floor of the linen closet to their beds, and they also like to crawl onto the lowest shelf, but there are dozens of possible spaces in this place.
UO is indeed overpriced, apart from their political issues (which, let's be fair, are at the top, not at all reflecting opinions held by most of its work force). Sometimes items I'm aware of from o...
I like to keep my bathrooms as clinical as possible. It's not for everyone, I know, but to me the point of the space is to be both clean-looking and easily cleaned.
That doesn't mean ...
Not everyone has a microwave, and not every stove has a built-in timer, but my kitchen has both, so a separate timer is kind of a waste. It is useful to have a few available for different ta...
I think of Dr. Bronner's as primarily a personal soap (rather than a household soap), but TBH, I've always found it very drying.
It's fine as a lingerie wash, esp in lavender, but so ...
The other thing: this kind of TV isn't a "luxury" TV anymore. Most stores aren't selling picture-tube TVs now, and those that do seem to sell only one or two sizes in a single no-name brand. Our la...
This is maybe a little paranoid. Shower towels (assuming you're using different ones above and below the neck) should be fine for a couple of uses, and I'd swear that other AT articles, more focuse...
Well, do go to Coventry and consider hitting Tommy's for lunch, then City Buddha (for incense, if you're not into import-store housewares) and Big Fun, and possibly the bookshop that connects to To...
Hm. Like Blandwagon, Tara77, and wc_canuck mentioned, this attitude is pretty easy to have if you live in an area where stuff is available, but as I've said on this kind of thread before, not every...
These are beautiful. To me, it's not grandma, because of the quality and delicacy of the patterns. I would think differently if the same lamp had an all-over pattern of cabbage roses with no whites...
... but the Elfa shelves are just fancy standard-and-bracket shelving, which are available a lot cheaper at almost any hardware or home improvement store.
I have an egyptian cotton, woven-in-Italy duvet cover that certainly wasn't stitched together in either of those countries, because it fell apart on first washing, and so did its replacement... onl...
The slipcovers are all right, but I'd like to point out that IKEA is not quite ubiquitous in many parts of the US. Probably KLIPPAN is instantly recognizable for people who read home blogs, and the...
For what it's worth, the Babette blanket uses a yarn that's very expensive for merino wool, albeit cuddly and silky. Making it will not be much cheaper than buying the blanket sold on the Garnet Hi...
Thirding the "bulldog clips on boots is a stylist's idea, not an actual GOOD idea" sentiment. ;)
I also wouldn't keep office supplies in glasses -- that's more space than you need for ...

The first one is really lovely. I don't think I would describe the "Ava" room as a princess room, although it is pretty and feminine.

I'd try spray-on enamel paint made for models, available at hobby stores -- get a can, then test it on the bottom panel of one of these tubs?

"Shelving unit with cubby holes" is a 5x5 Expedit, and while the bins might add to the value a bit, a new one doesn't cost that much more than $150.
