I can't get my plastic containers free of animal fats (or tomato products, for that matter) as it is (no dishmasher), I don't think I'd like this one bit. (Also, I have 1 learned-from-Granny-anci...

I'm sorry but this dang thing is $2330! I was expecting an expensive designer piece, not... whatever a bike chain worth three months rent. I love the piece, but not take-out-a-loan-love.

Chill out, Nancy Grace. Those kids aren't going to die because they used plastic beads, and they won't push any Indians (I've never met anyone--of any tribe-- that wanted to be called a Native Ame...

I think bright whites often make a space look cold. What about a turquoise color?

None of these beds are directly on the floor. What gives?

Your room is beautiful! It reminded me of playing in the woods with my bestfriend growing up, and the beautiful way the light would filter through the trees.

I don't think coffee grounds really works as a disinfectant. Maybe you meant odor remover?

My medical history form asked me if I used pads or tampons-- I had to draw a box for neither! I also got to explain to my gyn why I use the Divacup (she may have already known, but I was happy to ...

maybe the bed is in the living room just to show where she assembled it?

Wow. Two things. You can always paint it (I just painted my hate-it-but-can't-afford-another bookshelf high gloss super purple and like it significantly more). Maybe a really bold da...

Two things (that I've done in my living-by-myself-actual-"home"-and-not-and-college-apartment apartment this very week before my senior year of college starts next week): 1. Clean up, ...

CrewJulie-- The board she used looks like a 2"x8", and it looks like the mattress is about 2" above that. 10" (and padded) seems like a good alternative to a 1.5' race car bed that on...

What kind of bed is that? Is it handmade/custommade?

A neat (very cheap) way to update and add some flair to your kitchen is to add pictures to the cabinet doors. I found a science magazine with full page beautiful purple and grey jellyfish that bec...

As for bamboo and for many types of trellis-vines (ivy, jasmines, etc.) they're usually pretty invasive. I know jasmine is considered a "noxious weed" in the midwest and will completely take over ...

I have an incredibly similar off-brand charger. And it stinks. It has destroyed my battery life (now a whopping 12 minutes), overheats to the point of actually burning my skin, and is incredibly ...

@201Clinton: The Hatch prints aren't screen prints. They're prints from (carved) wood blocks, and they still make them the same way (I was there recently and got to chat with owner). Some of the...

In addition to getting permission of your super and the building next door, you should really ask all of the tenants in your building. I know you are thinking, "I'm making it better!" and while it...

Going full furry is much funnier (and more intense, I think) than full fury. Please don't correct this!

About washing money: Jane, did the bill fall apart? (American) currency is printed on linen, so it should be fine (don't wash the same dollar every day, but a few times shouldn't hurt...
