I have only fine china and sterling silverware in my apartment (I gave the everyday china and flatware to friends). Since I live in a teeny NYC apartment, there was not really room for both. It mak...

Jacobson's Egg chair gives you the same cozy enclosed feeling. (you'd need to add pillows maybe for equal softness)

I'm on the bepsf bandwagon. Sheers can look really sad really fast -- like underwear that's been washed one too many times. A thicker drape with more body is a much better look, imo.

can anyone recommend earplugs that are actually comfortable? Whenever I wear them I can't sleep because I keep wanting to tear them out. The noise is actually less irritating.

spanky: i've never heard of pigmented shellac primer. can you recommend a brand name by chance? thanks in advance! (agree that all knotty pine paneling should be painted over immediately, btw)

leave the black!!

on a slightly different note: where did the owner of the apartment pictured get the white cachepot in the center of the table? love it!

daybed, absolutely. West Elm has a very stylish one, and sells bolsters to go with it.

Looks like it would work on mushrooms too -- which would be fabulous. I sometimes use an egg slicer on them, but the wires just aren't tough enough. If the cutting blades on this gizmo are a little...

Anyone know of a similar fabric/wallcovering that is cheaper than the very expensive Kelly Wearstler-designed version? A trellis is a pretty classic design, so I'd think some would be out there...

lovely, but I think most people would find it tiresome to have to roll out and then stow their "bed" every day....

The slight lip on the top of the table says Jalk to me -- it's just like a Jalk coffee table I used to have (that an ex kept, sadly)

I totally agree with Lisa. I got all my sterling flatware (in Gorham's Etruscan pattern, with a modern-looking Greek key design) on eBay, and it didn't cost a whole lot more than a heavy set of sta...

why not remove the rail? Then you remove the problem.

Nothing is off limits in my apartment. I use my sterling flatware, Limoges china and linen napkins every day. I don't have a dishwasher so must wash by hand anyway, so it's no extra trouble to take...

name of paint color, please? love it.

I love your bedside tables; where did you get them?

this bedroom is perfect.

What does that mean, that Clio is a sister to Global Table? Are they owned by the same person? (love G.T. by the way)

The Panton chair seems unstable to me.
