When I was a teenager, we had a family friend who lived on a tiny adorable houseboat on Lake Union (in Fremont), and she frequently asked me to come spend weekends there babysitting her house-rabbi...

This has TONS of potential -- would love to see some art on the walls, the desk finished with some plants, etc. Re-enter next year!

Errr, I don't believe that Hirst "prints" are available. No...those dot paintings are available for purchase if you have an extra many thousand dollars lying around. Leaning it against the wall is ...

YES. WANT.

J'adore! C'est tres jolie! Oui -- the negativity has got to end, folks. I've said it before -- if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all! Real people are showi...

Dear lord, people, why all the negativity?? This is a real person's home! Do your best to at least be civil when giving commentary. Melissa -- thanks for sharing your home with us. For...

This reminds me very much of the tiny studio/loft I saw profiled on the NYTimes about a year and a half ago. I'm sure it was featured on AT (though I can't find the article). The guy bought the apa...

It looks like an ad shoot set without the Marc Jacobs models. So, in that way, it is exquisitely sharp and fashionable and trendy...and also terribly boring at the same time.

Ohmygod! I LOVE this space! It does feel a leeeeeeettle like a furniture showroom with the side view, but honestly, who doesn't occasionally have fantasies of living with all the furniture on the s...

This house is beautiful, but feels like it has been staged. No other colors besides brown and white, and it doesn't even look like anyone has sat on the furniture. There are no books, no warm cushi...

I LOVE this space. I am a little person, and want a house that is bright and cheery and comfortable, and just big enough for me -- and possibly another overnight guest occasionally. I love it. Can ...

You know, Gallivant, I totally understand! But, I bet you could jury-rig this so that you could have it be pretty and white for parties and things, and then just be ordinary (and durable) the rest ...

If you look carefully at the bathroom door, you'll see that it's a pocket door. If you hung anything on it, it would come crashing down as soon as you opened the door! I'm curious what...

Oh, yes, one last thing: WEAR EYE AND NOSE/MOUTH PROTECTION. You do NOT want to inhale those shards or get them in your eyes. Seriously.

I spent the weekend building trail structures out in the woods with a bunch of volunteers; totally different sort of thing, but the lesson we learned out there applies here: measure twice (hell, ei...

I'm curious -- are ALL fiddleheads edible?? I live in Seattle, and we have tons and tons of sword ferns out here that are putting out their fiddleheads now. How long must they be cooked?

I didn't know there was a ceramic version! I picked up my plastic version at (I think) Canadian Tire when I was still living in Toronto. They are weirdly difficult to find in the US, and even harde...

This is one of the most homey places I've seen yet -- it looks like I could live there! I like the fact that this isn't super polished, that it doesn't hit all of the mid-century modern checkmarks ...

Go! Go! My aunt is a member of the Berkeley Potters Guild and my mother has a mantle full of her gorgeous Arts and Crafts-style pots.

That yellow sideboard says Landing Strip! to me...
