kmorar, do you mean like this? This is an old store display I bought at an antique store several years ago. It's one of the things I'd grab if my house were burning down.

We bought several of these in various colors that I keep mixed in my bookshelves. http://www.containers...

I love this book. Her Touch of Grace biscuits are the best I've ever had!

The hummingbirds loved my Lantana this year as well, it also attracted a lot of butterflies.

No tchotchkes equals no soul. Seriously, minimalism is nice for catalogs but not for living. People have said they feel like they're going to suffocate because of my "collection" and I say be my ...

My house was built in 1950 so Atomic Ranch has been a great resource for me. I also love This Old House. It's hardly a design magazine but it's full of good information. Domino goes right into th...

If you are considering subletting, I would keep the parquet. If part of it would need replacing down the line it would be a lot cheaper and easier to replace the smaller parquet pieces.

My bedroom windows are very old and drafty. I bought some thermal lined curtains a little over a month ago to help block the draft until I can afford to replace them. What I didn't consider is th...

This is a fantastic book. The attention to detail is amazing! Most of the items in the rooms had to be handmade by Mrs. Lee. I used to show it to friends when they'd come over but now I hid...
