Not sure, but as an artist who specializes in drawings / pen and ink, I can recreate something similar for you if you're interested! :)

I've never dealt with missing cats before, but runaway dogs have become my specialty, sadly. Here's what I would recommend: (1) CALL YOUR FRIEND. He deserves to know, and who knows, this ma...

Am I the only AT reader who is a complete slob? I also use guests coming over as an excuse to clean, finish decorating projects, etc....but sadly, I always wait until the last minute and inevitabl...

Two years ago, I bought a beautiful chocolate leather couch that's about as comfortable as a concrete bench. Plus, it's so slippery that I slide right off the couch. I've been hankering to buy a ...

While I definitely prefer living sans roommates, I agree with bobejina....it can be depressing every once in a while, especially when all your friends start moving in with or marrying their soulmat...

I agree, this looks like a hotel - nice, but zero personality. What might work better than a sofa is a padded bench or chest - adds a little extra seating, yet doesn't crowd the bedroo...

I splurged on a gorgeous shower curtain from Pottery Barn that makes me smile every time I walk into my bathroom. Otherwise: * CLEAN, CLEAN CLEAN! * Candle by the toilet, create...

Seriously, you can't judge a city based on one tv show (even if it's a hilarious one)! Philly does have its gritty parts, but that's part of its character. Really, it's an amazingly beautiful cit...

I grew up reading 'The Silver Palate' cookbook and fell in love with the story of these two women (and their recipes, of course). Never realized how far-reaching their influence was until I read t...

anyone know of any similar venues in philly?

Hey Ly, if you ever decide to move out, give me a holler! :) And I agree with thepictures, let's get our own AT here in Philly!

Install a mantle and a large, colorful painting. If you don't think that will do the trick, paint. If your heart is set on wallpapering (which, I know is really trendy right now, but who knows fi...

i always thought it was "wrought iron"?

My first thought was to get a new (bit more open) staircase, but that would probably be a big expense and take up some precious driveway space. Can you paint the stairs white? For som...

Only having travelled Europe and North America, I would agree with lab director. While Americans may be more patriotic than some other nationalities, we're hardly alone.

Funny, those are pretty much the EXACT colors of my apartment....black entry door with white trim and cream/beige-y walls. (I didn't paint it that way, my landlord did.) Good to know AT approves!

I agree with MadrasSoup, Philly is one of the largest, coolest cities in the country - give us our own AT site! And, hey, if you need a blogger.... :)

There's a quote out there that reads something like, "Good design is not when there is nothing more to add, but when there's nothing more to take away." That pretty much echoes what everyone is sa...

Yes, sadly my cheap lifeless ironing board doesn't have the same effect when I leave it out and about (which is pretty much all the time).

I live in Chester County (in the borough of historic West Chester) - what a fantastic surprise to see a local home featured on this website!!! Now I wonder where it is so I can drive b...
