So much of the hard cider you find in stores is so sicky sweet that I got away from it for a while, but there is a new one now from good ol' Minnesota called Crispin. It actually taistes like it'...

I think for a lot of us in small apartments, we have little choice of where to set up our workspaces. Our bedroom is so small we were barely able to squeeze our dressers in there! The room in our...

One thing we'll do from now on is remember to log out of our facebook and any other e-mails! We play music off of our computer and welcome our friends to play DJ and pick out a few songs to add to...

Wow! What a problem. And I thought I had it bad with my in-laws giving us Australia stuff (Gee thanks! Another koala bear!) My advise is to A) let the kids break the most hideous of ...

Oh my god! This is soooo awesome! The thing I miss most from my childhood home is being able to light the fireplace on a chilly Minnesota night. This would be so great for small apartment dwelle...

I love also love the worn look of it as well as the decals. If lead paint is the issue, could you just pray an acrylic clear coat over it to seal it?

Hot pockets. I know they're totally gross and I hate them when I'm feeling healthy, but for some reason I always crave them when I'm sick. The old Campells chicken noodle actually helps me feel b...

My kitchen shears came with our knife set. They're fine but the biggest benefit is in preventing my husband from grabbing my good sewing scissors for kitchen use! I always felt that a kitchen she...

Same here Kelseyjean! The worst of all summer chorse during my childhood was being forces to weed the nettles out of the garden which always resulted in painful red rashes up and down my arms...

Every Christmas my 92 year old Grandma makes this hideous Jello mold "salad" that is the same mint green color as a 1950's bathroom! I know there's lime jello, blended up cottage cheese, canned fr...

Four freaking hours!?! Good God! Sounds like torture to me! I once attended a baby shower & had similar feelings of alienation as I was the ONLY woman who hadn't had any children. I...

I used to sell this exact honed carrera tile. Yes it is higher maintenance than ceramic tile or (ick!) linoleum, but it is also sooo much more lovely and adds value to your home. Yo...

This is the coolest thing I have ever seen. This truly brings out the kid in me. I am so envious!

Oh, you poor New Yorkers! I feel for you in that tiny place but, bless you, you've truly made the best of it! Fantastic job!

"Donald in Pigtown", You totally cracked me up! I love the look, and as some one who thinks with the artistic side of my brain, I'm actually apt to identify a title with a color. Sadl...

I made a recycled denim tote bag for the Co-op trips. I used an old pair of jeans cut off below the seat and and used the material from the legs to make the straps. I used some spiffy Amy Butler ...

Oh my Gosh! I completely forgot about this! How fun would it be to pull out and play at a party as adults!

I think a few pink items in a kitchen can be ok, but I don't think I could paint a whole wall pink. In a kitchen, it just reminds me of raw chicken! Though I kinda like pink bathrooms. Also, too...

I think it looks great and although it isn't a dramatic change, if you are happy and excited about it, that's all that matters! Kudos also by being confident about your own craftsmanship that...

These are all so beautiful! I love the half apron with the fern motif. But I always heard that linen stains fairly easily. Is it really a good choice for an apron that will frequently have dirty ...
