smart smart smart! I love it.

bookmarking this for sure!

I had a set in college (required for my organic chem courses) - but the new ones are plastic, boring colors, not nearly as nice as the one shown above...

There is a MCM house nearby with a privacy fence all done in giant Mondrian, primary rectangles.

I'd hate to think that people would start to abuse the system ikea would pull it entirely. I've been awaiting the day my little boy meets the height requirement...

We love records and our 4-year old has been using an old F-P record player since about 20 months! He still loves it, it's a great toy and takes SO much more punishment than a cd player or cds. (an...

There were two families in that issue of dwell living in very small spaces, and both of them admitted they would need more room eventually...

I have that exact polka dot quilt (stripes on the reverse). I bought it when my son was born in 2005 from the babystyle catalog. I just went to their website to look for it, and saw that their w...

oh lord no. I don't need to see it happening. It's easy enough to hear the liquid or solid material hitting the bucket in the potty chair anyway. We used a little seat for a short time, switched...

I second the recommendation for the baby bjorn trainer (at our house we call it "the toilet adapter") Super super awesome - have been using it since my kid was a little over 2. I've also read it c...

I have the coffee table version. The designer is Johnny Lim and it's called the star 69 table, as noted above (I think the coffee table is the star 70?) I know they used to sell them at

I'm so glad to see shorter curtains can look good. I have a room where I want to hang some, but there is a furnace intake on the baseboard below the windows, so I can't do floor-length. These win...

I was tired of my old wood headboard (bought 8 years ago from west elm) - I have minimal sewing skills (I do have a machine though) - I used a large, linen-type curtain panel from ikea to make a sl...
