Correction: now it's legal to catch rainwater in PARTS of Colorado - if you have a private well. I live in Denver and it's still illegal for me.

Fraise: Interesting interpretation. I've always thought of it like "recover" without the R, as in it is helping your house recover from dirt and the planet recover from toxic chemicals. But I gu...

I live in a painted brick house, and it's blue, though not cobalt - more of a sky blue with cobalt trim. That's how it was when we bought it, but I love it. It makes my house stand out and gives ...

The whole house is lovely (a few pieces not to my personal taste, but they combine very well) and I really enjoyed the explanations on some of the pictures - knowing the background to a photo alway...

This is simply lovely.

Ditto house tour requests.

This is lovely. Where is the green and white rug in the bedroom from?

Everything is beautiful but I especially love the bathroom sink! Where is it from?

Well, you can see me reflected in the glass (it's a bright sunny day here in Denver) but here's how mine came out - I'm very pleased!

This is adorable!

I bought that print too! I'm doing a white mat (3 inch border) with a flat black wood frame - I've ordered both but they haven't arrived yet. When they do (should be the next few days), I can sho...

Though I think the restoration is beautifully done, the article says it was $50,000, not $5,000. Still relatively reasonable, but a very different level of budget.

Though I think it's actually quite cute, I don't get what you do with the rest of the garbage can. What good is a garbage can without a lid? And then it's just incredibly wasteful.

Read design blogs.

It may be less expensive, but what about the air pollution factor? I thought wood was even worse than the carbon footprint of oil - am I wrong?

I'm on the driving side. I work 15 miles from my home - it takes me 20 minutes by highway, but would take me an hour by bus, and I don't have any idea how long biking would take. I'm not willing ...

Funny, I have painted woodwork in my house and for the past four years I've been trying to psych myself up to strip it, but I dread the process so much that it hasn't happened. I say do what you w...

I really like your colors, particularly the blue in the bedroom, but I'm confused - what's going on with the paint by the door? Is it intentional that it doesn't go all the way to the frame? Or a...

I love the colors - it's like living in a marigold. But I'd like to see the kitchen and bed areas as well!

My fave is sky blue!
