I will make a point to stop by next time I'm in that neck of the woods. Thanks for the great tip!

Fun topic! I would say that of the people I know, the pack rats/minimalists thing does seem to fall along gender lines. But I think it's important to point out that the male minimalists I know ar...

You pegged me! I have been using more baking soda, vinegar and bon ami to save a little money from the more pricey (but great smelling!) green products.

Modern cat did a great comparison on natural cat litters here: http://www.moderncat.net/2008/04/27/natural-cat-litter-co...

I got mine on Thursday and plan to use it to pay for my car insurance. I just got a newer, more fuel efficient car and insurance is much more expensive. Not that I'm complaining! I'm glad to hav...

Excellent resources and also kudos for taking the public transportation angle.

Yeah, I love light wells but this is not practical. I can think of situations where you would be at home and worrying about folks looking up your skirt, aaron. Large parties of people (if you ente...

You might check with your municipal recycling program. The one in my city actually takes clothing. Clothing can actually have a very long life cycle after you're finished with it. What some donat...

Very fun and I love that you seek to re-use items (craigslist & garage sales). It's lighter on the budget and planet. It also forces careful consideration of how things will look in your place an...

ditto to what Curtis said. I love a cheeky design.

Great job! I also like the organized everyday object thing you have going; it give the place a warm and lived in look. I've enjoyed the variety of styles in this contest and it's amazing that it'...

hear, hear zephy. At first blush I liked this apartment because I interpreted the minimalism as a choice because the bones are so amazing. I like the entry because it has a different point of vie...

I like this entry because it seems to be well laid out and the furniture and objects are very edited, purposeful yet carefully picked out to show some personality. I tend towards the 'warm' side w...
