- Tiamat_the_Red The splash bowl is silicone. i talked to the Fred folks for about 30 minutes at Housewares, really nice people. Hilariously cute, punny items. I love the Flora spatulas. And...

Though the bamboo handled stuff may seem "green", bamboo is an increasingly unsustainable product, especially when coming from mass producers such as casabella. Manufacturers will often cut down fo...

We recently moved into a 2-story home with a basement, where the laundry room is. Bedrooms are upstairs, and for some reason, there was a laundry chute in the kitchen under the sink. It actually op...

It may sound cheap, but the Ikea Kramfors sofa is great. I'ts been on my wishlist for a while. It's in your price range, and fit me (6'2") fantastic. My 5'4" wife wasn't as enthusiastic, but she li...

This is a totally easy DIY. I'm a necktie junkie, and have a few rows of these I made myself. Simply buy a cheap wooden peg rack (they sell at stores like Marshall's for about $10) and a good fully...

The feet are pretty much a stock piece you can find in a good home improvement store. I had some vintage bar stools I needed new feet like these for and I found them at Menards. They had a bunch of...

I think some peole are judging very different situations with blanket "rules," and that just doesn't work. I can understand if you think it's public property and that's that, which makes a lot of s...

madsarah- I've only been in the house 6 months, but I asked my neighbor about the people across the street. They just brush him off and say it's a free country, or something of the sort. Yet ...

I've been a Chicagoan all my life and I happen to hate this and have never done it, but now I understand it fully because of this winter and the specific situation on my block. My neighbor and I sp...
