Hiring movers was the best $400 I ever spent. I have an really heavy, cumbersome bed (it has drawers built in to the base), so I didn't want to put any friends through trying to move it that beast...

GreatFriend, I was just about to post the same thing... easy to be #1 when there's little to no competition left

love blues, but I'm too busy drooling over those leather chairs in the first pic to click on any other pictures... anyone know where they are from?

really cool looking and I'm sure it's perfectly secure, but I would get a little nervous!

I think the set up looks pretty good. If entertaining is important to you, then I would go with what you have in the floor plan. I definitely wouldn't do the dining room in that small second bedr...

This is a great post, as I am possibly moving to DC this summer and would be looking for an interior design school to attend! Does anyone know is Corcoran is a good school?

thanks for the comments! I might go ahead and get it. It's good to know that it's sturdy, despite being assembled furniture... that was definitely part of my concern! As far as the weight limit,...

Oh my god, can I move in with them?

If I nap on the bed, I'm done. I prefer taking my naps on the couch, snuggled up with a blanket

Definitely a book (or 3) and some good tunes on my ipod. If I have reading material and music to drown out whatever noise is around me, I can be happy anywhere!

I've used something similiar before and they don't work great. It's still worth it to tape!

I think if you really wanted to add a color, I would go with yellow, which I also think could be carried in to the living room with the grey. However, I might just stick with white since the aqua ...

"I think it would be a shame and a waste of time and money to paint such nice-looking cabinets." The whole point is that the homeowner doesn't view them as nice-looking. No matter how...

well if you live in Bucktown/Wicker Park, you may have had a cougar roaming your neighborhood!

I think I would have almost liked it better if he had kept the wall color from before and just painted the door frames. But I'm just generally not a fan of super busy wallpaper, so to each her/his...

pretty sure paranormal activity doesn't fly as a legal reason for breaking a lease. i think your best bet would be to try your hardest to find some other reason that you should legally be allowed ...

I would stain it dark and go for a bright fabric
