I used them once years ago, and they did a nice job. However I was shocked by the bill. I don't remember the exact amount, but it was like $100-200 MORE than I expected b/c they charg...

You know, for 15 bucks a year (on average) it's so worth it to get that little bit of joy in the mailbox. I feel a tad guilty about it being a recycling nightmare, but whatcha gonna do?

Oh - and I don't know from experience, but I've read that sex on the tempurpedic is a bit different from your traditional spring mattress. Anyone wanna weigh in on that?

I purchased a memory foam mattress pad to go on top of an uncomfortable mattress at my parents house. It was about $100-150, and is just about 3" thick. It's comfy, but I'm not sure it's what I'd...

You know how a lot of electronics have the power cor that plugs into the wall, and the other end plugs into the electronic? Like on a laptop? To save energy, do I have to unplug the plug from teh...

The one problem with the pine is that it's inevitable that the knots will eventually show through the paint.

Oh - and the rugs are handmade I think.

I'm hoping it's the Madeline Weinribs! We've got 2.

I think that if you unscrew the bits on the back/top, the fabric "sling" can be removed & replaced. A decorator I have worked with has had these reupholstered before. We got the same ...

Actually, I'm pretty sure these came from the Ovando flower shop around the corner on Bleecker, so the Ovando people must've been chanelling their inner Martha. And btw, that's SJP's s...

It's pretty bright. But why not live with it, and paint the vanity a color that will help it not seem so out of place? I think that if you wanted to you could actually ha...

I WISH people would include the paint color names with the rooms! I've been looking for a blue like that. It's harder than you'd think.

You are totally overthinking it. And memory foam mattresses just aren't that comfy long term.

Just yesterday a friend took a photo of her digital pregnancy test that clearly said "Pregnant". She emailed it to her husband. It was cute.

Check out the AT classifieds - you never know. I was looking for the same thing and one day i found it here for $150. The lady actually ended up giving it to me for free! It isn't th...

I know someone who did an amazing pooh nursery for a girl. They painted the room in big fat vertical stripes (maybe 12") of pink & fuschia. Over that they added, in orange, stenciled images of po...

I agree with Patrick. In some of the ads, there is a piece of artwork from which the pattern will show up on a dress elsewhere.

there's a company called fit'n'fresh that's selling similar boxes (they have them at target) that have a built-in ice pack to keep foor dfrom spoiling. They're pretty nice looking.
