It was reported that they were a real problem in NYC just a few years ago, and that everybody, rich and poor, had them. I know that my daughter had them in her apartment. She was very casual abou...

Eva Zeisel has a line of white china at Crate & Barrel that I'd buy if I was starting all over again. By the way, is Ms. Zeisel still designing for Nambe? I saw some really great new designs in t...

My father is recovering from a stroke. Although he is 88, he is refusing to give up and accept his limitations. Like a lot of people, he lost about half his assets last year, which was another bl...

#1 and #3, step forward. You have been chosen finalists for our competition. And someone, anyone, quick, go steal that copper bathtub and bring it to me. There'll be a handsome reward.

I think all three are beautiful. I prefer to bathe in privacy, so I am not concerned about the unflattering aspects of pressing flesh to glass. OK -- that's it. They're beautiful and they're DEE...

Doors 1 and 2 are so Lewis Carroll. Who wouldn't love either of them, somewhere in the house.? My child is grown, but my memories of being a child are never gone. What an imaginative play on a s...

I'm getting to grasp the wabi-sabi concept. It's new to me. Some of the kitchens are great. The one with the super rusted sink just doesn't do it for me. Given what I know about cleanliness and...

I once made a wonderful pinata for my daughter. We spray painted it pink (it was a flying dragon) and they we found a gold spray paint that superimposed a gold netting. Although the c...

It's all about the bath. The bigger the better. What moron at American Standard came up with these shallow square baths that became standard in post World War II suburbia? Go backwards, dear fri...

Beautiful effects. So much better than I have seen before.

Don't go down this road, folks; you'll regret it. Black for kitchens came in as a heavy trend a couple of years ago, and many of the top-end condos in Austin are done with black kitchens. The 360...

The DwellStudio mat really stands out. Naturally, it would be $56. For a bath mat. I saw some very nice bath mats that used unusual textures to make patterns on burkedecor.com. If y...

Yes, I noticed these available at Christmas time. In a northern setting at Christmas I think they'd be great. But isn't it a little late in the year to be getting enthusiastic about snowballs in ...

I love it, and wish more people would go in this direction.

$35.00.

I loved the FLUOR carpet tiles laid in the kitchen. Really nice combination of colors with the rest of the room. I usually object to the oversize farmhouse type sinks, but in this kitchen it look...

I had a locking medicine cabinet and promptly lost the key. Have you ever felt like an idiot calling a locksmith to unlock your medicine cabinet? Now that I am a little better organiz...

Available for only $910? ha, ha, ha.

Beautiful color, beautiful mirror! And I love the two hens, although I'm usually not into animal knick-knacks. These were special exceptions!

Since first living in Texas many years ago and getting acquainted with the Mexican people here, in New Mexico and in old Mexico, I've always kept a milagro or two around the house. A milagro is a ...
