So this latest earthquake made me think about preparedness kits again, and if it's worth it for me to invest any part of my paltry salary for one. Sigh... I'd hafta carry ...

I just KNEW I'd catch hell from the haters...I'm talking to you dancingspring. Yes, I've heard of a dust mop, but they don't do the job half as well. If a dust mop did the job even ...

Oh, you swiffer haters out there...I know they're not the greenest things out there, but they do SUCH an amazing job trapping those dust particles!!!! What else can I use that isn't sp...

To comment on Thursday's comment...my packer knew I was doing the move either myself with day-laborers and a U-Haul or another moving company altogether.

My theory is that when the "Big One" happens, I won't be anywhere near my Grag-and-Go bag, so what's the point?

Coming from someone who has moved 5 times in 17 months (don't ask) having a professional packer come to you with ALL of the necessary supplies is the best way to go. Why? Here are my ...

Check with your local college theatre departments. They get donated tons of stuff and can't use it all.

I just posted a looong comment about this and how disgusting it is to me that these companies are wasting time and money on this. I wish/hope that AT:NY will post the letters from th...

I, for one, am a commenter. Not only here, but on Yelp, CitySearch, Perez (I never say First!!), NYT, ParkAvenuePeereage, whatever. I love to read what others have to say about the same things I'...

post pictures when you make progress! Kudos from the likes of us MUST have positive impact on your landlords:-) Remember, no matter what you are gaining valuable design ...

Agreed to everything above, but want to especially promote getting rid of the bookcase and if at all possible, the dresser. They don't "go" and take away from well...everything. Sorry to be bruta...

Thanks for the link, Doug. Much appreciated. Being 5'9", I really think I need to sit in/on one of them before I dive into purchasing. I guess I need to plan a trip to NYC!!!!! Yippee!

This is JUST what I have been looking for...it reminds me of the giant teacup sofa from 4 Weddings and a Funeral. But, where to buy????

I have been microwave-less for 5 years now and rarely miss it. There are some frozen meals from Trader Joe's I'd try if the only way to cook it wasn't in a mic. I use the oven/stove to rehea...

The link only takes me to the Met Home home page...I need a better picture of what you're talking about. Please?

If I could I'd hang everything. Wrinkles are the worst, and just happen less when things are hung - PROPERLY!!! Nothing is scrunched in. I'm constantly editing. It's all arranged by color, too....

My first, gut reaction is to stay at the beach, but it really depends on the commute. This is LA, and everything boils down to the commute. If the Noho place is air-cond...

This guy was covered in Vanity Fair about a year ago. He dresses in fabulously tailored suits and lives with his wife in her Park Avenue apartment...and they fill it with boxes of these peelers. ...

I just received this catalogue in the mail and was wondering who was behind it, and Resto makes sense. I cannot buy a piece of furniture without sitting on it, but the sectional looks ...
