Hey, let's not belittle RomaineNYC. There might have been a bit of TMI in there, but a point was being made. There was no snarking at others for making the same point more briefly, soooooo....
Citiquiet = soundproof windows, but I think a link would have helped with this post. I googled it and it's pretty much exactly where you'd expect it to be: citiquiet.com.
Going into movies is a whole other topic (see the long thread about it on Shelterrific, for example).
I like a lot of the houses mentioned (the Summers' house on Buffy, Lorelai's hous...
The current (holiday) issue of Real Simple has a What Goes With Brown? decorating feature, actually! I don't see it on the site now, but I bet they'll upload it there after the issue is no l...
Any time Dr. Bronner's comes up in a set of comments, the fans come out of the woodwork, and I feel like the odd man out: that stuff is horrible and harsh on dry skin. I think it might be the most ...
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...

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.
