Ugh...I have to say that as much as I love food and could dwell on it all day (and often do), I hardly ever watch the Food Network anymore. It's just a lot of the SAME stuff over and ...

I'd also recommend USA Moving & Storage. A coworker recommended them after using them twice. And he found out about them through another friend's referral. We used them to move from a...

Thanks, everyone, for your comments! The floor and buffet are actually not as dark as they appear in this photo. I've uploaded some better pictures as well as a photo of the china cabi...

Hi Anne, Yeah, I'm starting to come to the same conclusion myself after calling a few more places (including FedEx and UPS freight)...I did find a guy that does some furniture moves fo...

MC, do you happen to still have the contact info or name of the people you used? I did search under the moving section of Craigslist, but I'm not sure how much I trust some random pers...

Can anyone recommend a good mover that will deliver single furniture pieces? We just bought a china cabinet from someone out past Gurnee Mills and need to figure out a way to get it ba...

S in Chicago, At Target we found a really useful stainless steel wire sponge holder that sticks to the side of your sink with rubber suction cups. We used to keep the sponge in a littl...

Has anyone ever hired a professional interior designer for any kind of work? We had a consultation w/ someone at Urban Space (won a free hour through their raffle), and asked them to d...

Inspired by all the recent "green" posts, I just proposed to our condo association the idea of adding a rain barrel and a compost bin. Any tips on what to look for when buying either? ...

Wow, thanks AT! I really thought my question would be a long shot, but guess I underestimated the design acumen of AT members. Now it's just a matter of finding something similar/used...
