I love hanging art this way. It's so eclectic and free--it puts the emphasis on the owner's broad range of art/photos/mementos instead of a rigid grid or pattern.

Oh...my...god. I love it. But my cat is only attracted to the patches of sun on the desk or floor, or a warm lap. Part of me still wants this, though. Must...fight...consu...

Yep, that same staining happened in my last place--I was horrified! I had to scour for a while with CLR and a scrubbing pad and never used bleach or Tilex on that tub again.

I heart Little Otsu.

8200 square feet? Wow. That's like, the antithesis of the Small Cool places we've been seeing.

Oh have no doubt--those Elle Decors I picked up off the street WILL be recycled after I go through them and tear out things I like.

Wait--what book is that!?

Did anyone else see that two-part Oprah where she featured this retired couple who crammed their 3200 sq. ft. house with clutter? When sorted and spaced out, the contents took up a 10,000 sq. ft. w...
