I was just the other day remembering the beautiful blue bottle like that (thank you, now I know the proper name!) that we had when I was growing up. We did keep change in it and it was a huge proj...

Really gorgeous. Love the avocado color especially and the way the wood tones really glow against it. Can I ask if you know anything about the lamp on the bedside table to the right? I have the ...

This is the best story ever, I so admire the family for staying put. For years living in NYC I've noticed the mylar in the windows and it was the one sign to me that people actually lived inside t...

I have to agree with Randy Dandy here. As a retailer, we are up against a huge disadvantage when customers can find out the manufacturer of an item and go and get it at some discount online retail...

Great topic! We stayed at the Tropicana recently and were so skeeved out it wasn't even funny. We actually spent most of our time in the place contemplating the date of its demise. ...

oops, sorry, realize now that Americana's not actually in LA proper.

I too understand the concept of this instant neighborhood type of development, although it seems a bit redundant in a large city like LA. There are talks about (and I suppose some examples of, alt...
