I got a few of these to test them out. they're wonderful for my thin rayon jersey shirts that I've been afraid to hang up but they make it such a pain to get shirts on/off that I'll only be using ...

I agree about the beanbag, it needs to go. Definitely go for bolder/brighter curtains. A larger rug would be good, as would a bookshelf/media cabinet. If you keep the couches where t...

I'm moving into my first real post-college apartment, plus getting married in the spring, and I don't really have a table at the moment. I know the style I want (very simple lines, dark wood) whic...

Did you forget to include the survey, or am I missing something?

This reminds me of the nets they sell for the corners of little kids' rooms to hold stuffed animals. Except it's a more grown up version.

Okay, I definitely think that checking out interesting art books and such for guests to look at is a cool idea. Using them as decorations... not so much.

does anyone have experience with how well the Malm dressers from Ikea hold up after a while? I'm considering buying some for when I move out on my own/get married in a few months, but I'd like to ...

one word of caution with the starched fabric... I did that with cut outs of black fabric and while it looked fantastic, it left faint purple stains in the exact silhouettes of the shapes when I to...

I used to have a box of kleenex, but I have room for it by the sink now that I moved. I would never leave anything breakable on the back of the toilet. There have been several times w...

I voted Luke warm but it recorded it as Hot, hot, hot! The survey might need to be checked for problems.

why not just ride the bike/trike yourself and have your dog run beside you? that way you both get exercise.

I love it! my immediate thought was also that it would be a great sewing table. it reminds me of the kind my grandma used to have with the top that flipped open to form extra work space.

sorry for the second post. for some reason I was not able to include these pictures links in my last comment. over the bed (where no headboard or decoration is!):

1. Kate 2. Fly (gray/midnight combo pack), Mod (sky), and Flock (midnight) 3. I'm a grad student with basically no budget for decorating. Most of my walls are blank due to no money and...

the paper bag method works great for me, even without the oil. I don't staple it, just fold over the top twice. the only problem I've had is that it's hard to get it seasoned unless you like to u...

I think nate is cuter and I like his designs better. plus ty rubs me the wrong way, I'm just not a fan.

quercus - I totally agree. while it's not exactly that hot, it's very useful, a good idea, and likely to be hidden by pants so you still won't look that bad anyway.

I'd never been to an ikea before one opened up about 30 minutes from me (and about 15 minutes from my parents).

I think it would be cool, but is it really possible to do at all of the ikea's? the one near me doesn't have any full bedrooms set up (well, maybe one), they just have living rooms/kids rooms/othe...

-kellen - that was my first thought, too! I go to Michigan so I feel a little shunned. *sniffle* anyway, I agree that a site owner should be able to block certain commentators. and ...
