This is a hilarious photo.

I love my brown bedroom! Boomerang latex in "Shore" (if you go to the website, just know that it dries way darker than the colour swatch - way WAY darker), with Boomerang "Cotton" as trim.

Yeah... I stretched some Amy Butler fabric out over some canvas frames... this just strikes me as too easy a DIY.

What I want to know is where people are seeing ALL these posts about Ikea here. Sure, there's an item here or there, but the bulk of AT is about stuff from other vendors. Get over your...

Thank you! What a timely article. I'm moving into a new apartment next month and am going to replace the gross faucets with my own.

Hmm. To go in a different direction, I'd lose the cupboard doors (provided that the shelving underneath is in good shape, the doors are removable, and you can put them back on when you move). Inste...

Candles do make a difference! I once lived in an apartment without much noticeable heat (yes it was illegal, I won't tell you the temperatures it got down to in the winter but it was really cold), ...

Is nobody else creeped out by the closeup of the sleeping woman on the flatscreen on the red bed?

Eeee! I love these!

That's a dorm? Come on, my dorm room was horrific. It was the size of a closet, with a teensy little bed (on stilts because all my storage was underneath, with dingy grey carpet and 50 year-old cur...

TIDY. No really. Tidy up, don't leave clutter out. What makes a "grown-up" home, in my mind, is cleanliness and orderliness. At the very least, controlled chaos.

My mom has done that my whole life. Upon seeing this post, I could practically hear the metal-on-pottery 'clink' of her rings hitting the dish.

I do like smoothies but it's a pain in the butt to wash my blender (and I hate my immersion blender). For the past week and a half, my breakfast every weekday morning has been a creamy vanilla yogu...

I cancelled my cable a year ago and only briefly re-connected it. I don't have an online video game subscription so that's neither here nor there. My home phone is the nex...

I have a favourite veggie sandwich, from a local lunch joint here in Ottawa called Gooney's: Sauteed mushrooms, cheddar/swiss/provolone, lettuce, onions, grilled eggplant, hot peppers,...

Thank you for the reminder to get rid of "the box". "The box" has been staring me in the face for awhile now.

No - and oddly enough, you'd think I would because the storage in my kitchen is so lacking. But I don't. Maybe I should, at least to keep my casserole dish in there. It doesn't fit anywhere nicely....

My chocolate microfiber sofa will probably go out of style fabric-wise, but it's a well-made sofa with clean lines (not to mention the comfiest napping-couch I have ever owned), so it's always an o...
