I've found it's best to avoid anything at West Elm you have to assemble -- the instructions are bad and things don't quite fit as they should. On the other hand, I've had great luck with the Ready ...
I grew up in Texas where you can get a 2500sf. house for under $200k (unless it's in the heart of one of the major cities), so the idea of families living in less than 1000sf. was a rather foreign ...
The Shabby Chic for Target line was actually good quality for the price -- though frankly too cutesy for my taste outside a little girls' room. I agree though that part of Shabby Chic's downfall ma...
I think this looks pretty good for a DIY upholstery job but honestly the self-welting and the french tufting are what really make the chair, I think. I like the fabric choice but it may have been w...

Ooh! What a great gift idea for my husband!
Tell me why I want to highlight the toilet? If you're looking for an accent color, why not go with colorful walls or linens?
