DarrenB, hardly the case. I think this loft is lovely, unique and shows wonderful taste, as I suggested. That was not my point. Not loving your home as much hardly defines curmudgeon. It's simply p...

With all due respect, if I wanted a house tour of Sabrina Buell's home, I'd subscribe to Architectural Digest. In fact, it's why I don't. I'd much prefer to see house tours on this site of the not ...

yes, the house is lovely, as is the setting, but perhaps i'm just getting bored with all of this because while everything may be perfect, it feels so generic, like it could belong to anyone who goe...

i enjoyed the sponsored post. i like watching rooms come to life. my only hurdle is that no matter how much i might try to like CB2, i just don't. i wouldn't bring one of their pieces home. it all ...

I bought my vacuum at Desco. I went there for a miele and came out with a Riccar, after being convinced by the (rather gruff) owner to go with a Riccar. He told me that because New Yorkers tend to ...

I would love to stop using bleach, but I have not been able to find anything else that comes close to keeping whites white. The suggestions offered above just don't cut it, and I don't have the opt...

thank you cblls. never heard that before. then i have to agree, those curtains in the living room have too much puddle. i see dust bunnies and nyc black dirt collecting quickly. i'm a...

can somebody tell me what a puddle is?

one of my very first apartments had mirrors in every room and in places i never would have considered. it was beyond annoying to see my reflection everywhere i turned. one or two is enough, but in ...

F A B U L O U S ! What kind of paint did you use? Please tell us.

i'm not a fan of the mirror over the dining space, in either image. i don't think either reflect anything so special. since i'm not in the rooms though, i cannot tell if they enhance the space. but...

oy vey.

thanks Daily Nuance. Unfortunately, I've learned the hard way in not following IKEA's directions exactly -- specifically a bookshelf that came crashing down! -- so if I ever by IKEA again, I just w...
