I am also crazy about the fireplace and the angles of the furniture. (Also, LOVE the show. This was a nice memory.)

My suggestion would be to do a carpet/rug through the whole room (leaving maybe a 6 - 12" border) with Flor tiles, even following the angle of the fireplace by cutting them on the diagonal; I just...

Looks way flimsy to me. And stiffly uncomfortable.

Or just turn the a/c up, because if you live in a super-humid climate, turning it off entirely can leave your house feeling very hot and damp and it can damage books, etc. If I turne...

I am with you. I could load a dishwasher all day but I HATE unloading it. Ugh.

That is a really beautiful quilt. This will show my ignorance re: radiators, but is there any fire risk with textiles being that close to a radiator? I'm honestly wondering.

I definitely want to get these for my Mac-loving co-worker for his birthday. He is converting us all slowly . . . I like that they're funny and pretty aesthetically-pleasing.

You would think the tripod suggestion would be obvious, but it really wasn't to me. Those are great suggestions and a well-written tutorial.

I like the idea of anchoring it with a big piece of furniture - you could get away with something wide and leggy like t...

I am so thankful for bedroom month! I cleaned out dust bunnies the size of actual bunnies and rearranged the furniture and with just one last pile of crap to go through, I'll be renewed and so hap...

I am madly in love with your shrimp! What a fantastic gift.

It's not as minimal as the Parsons, and is more expensive, but we have loved the Crate & Barrel

Doesn't it seem like most people carry compact umbrellas these days, despite the romance of the Mary Poppins style? I picture they would just tip right over, in addition to completely disrupting t...

It's beautiful, warm and inviting. I think you've done a wonderful job with scale and color. The blue is perfect.

I would definitely see if they will do anything - at the very least, I would think they would send you new inside cushions. If they won't, we had a similar problem on a sofa we had r...

I think they're beautiful. Too bad they're probably made in China at that price.

I think the router is on top of the wood Ikea drawers. That floor is beyond fabulous. And the overall workspace looks great.

If you want to go for the idea of the poster hanger and need to stay SUPER cheap, maybe fold over the top of the print to make a pocket, insert some twine or something interesting like that, and ha...
