The bedding is the Foxglove Duvet from Habitat. I've been trying to figure out a way to ...

When you're combing ebay and craigslist, keep an eye out for PB Teen's Maison Canopy Bed as well. It was available in black...

Really love the wallpaper use here, and that Chesterfield is to die for.

Have to echo ThatGrrl here - I have two cats (both white, one a longhair) who not only lovingly shed on every upholstered thing I own, but love to claim new comfy scratch surfaces. There's no way t...

Can anyone source the bed in the first photo? It's absolutely gorgeous.

I'm a born-and-raised Chicagoan, so there's probably healthy bias in this statement, but I call B.S. on this one. The setting, culture, and people of this city are unparalleled. I love to travel, d...

foodefafa - I'm pretty sure it's the Cirrus duvet, from Anthropologie. Mine washes just fine (I run it on delicate, then tumble dry on low for half a cycle and hang it to dry completely).

What a beautiful, personal home. Your use of color and pattern is fearless and admirable, and everything feels like it belongs. I'd love to know the source of the melon color in the master bedroom ...

I grew up bouncing around the two tufted black leather Chesterfields that live in my grandparents' basement. Now that I can truly appreciate them, I'm appalled by my childhood behavior. :)

Whoa, those drum shades are massive . I'm actually kind of digging the layered opulence look here (although I'm not sure the nightstands work in this space, and that settee in th...

J, in case the split box spring didn't clue you in, I too have something of a spatial wiggle room problem (third floor unit, with half the last flight of stairs inside my front door - litera...

Wow. This is... disturbing, to say the least. And I'm not talking about the apartment. Is it written somewhere that, since the internet makes you faceless, it must also make you tactless?

I had such fond memories of literally climbing into bed as a child that when it came time to finally upgrade our mattress, I passed on the low-profile split box spring. Turns out, with a 14" mattre...

West Elm's

Oh please, please, please don't paint that wood. Sand out and refinish if the color bothers you. Paint the trim out a crisp white. Paint the brick if you must. Heck, paint the mantle. But it...

Wow, I guess I'm very much in the minority here. I have David Choe's "Hope #2" silkscreen hanging proudly and prominently in my hallway. Admittedly, that's as much because I'm a fan of...

The landlord at my first place was wonderful - upgraded the flooring before we moved in (after we'd already agreed to take the place), came out same day to fix a broken toilet chain, and put brand-...

Top floor of a three-story building. I've never had an elevator (or particularly missed having one, until moving to this place necessitated a hauling crew and some precarious roof action to get my ...

If it makes any difference, the over-the-toilet piece is quite a bit cheaper

Maybe try the Seat Saver ? Fairly cheap, and probably more comfortable than plywood.
