Ask a kid. Kids see things differently than we do, and aren't constrained by convention. And they can be very confident in their choices and opinions. Ask a 7 year old!

My first reaction was gray! I love gray now and I know it's popular, but I can't help it. But in thinking about it further, a deep purple would be nice with the gray of the marble and tile...you co...

I SO needed this. I find it's hard to get started, but once in motion I can stay in motion for awhile. The timer is a great suggestion, as I can't help but try to beat the clock. Plus it's interest...

It is only sad because it needs some personal touches! Your ceiling and windows are lovely and it looks bright and clean. All it needs is some soft textures. Plants, shades or curtains instead of t...

My absolute all-time favorite, once-a-year don't-budge-from-the-couch treat. Even my husband enjoys it. Timeless, stylish, heart-warming and smart. I strive to be more free-spirited like Mame. WWMD?

Too cute for me too, but an interesting technique to save a table from the trash. I applaud your ingenuity and the hard work it took to do such a detailed job!

Wow. Lots of presumptions being made here. I'd like to see a show of hands of those most critical of that environment pictured who have young 2 kids, please? As a mom of 2 healthy, creative, intell...

My mom taught me that waterfall was the proper way and my husband grew up with the opposite. It's waterfall at my house, but I don't go switching it on my mom-in-law! See what you think of th...

Best Tip: Plan to re-use or re-purpose as much as you possibly can. The cost and waste of most renovations is crazy and something like 80% or more of all waste generated can be recycled. When we re...

Since this is in your bedroom, you don't want files or bills or work staring at you from the corner of the room, so I suggest either a filing cabinet that you can cover with a pretty fabric or a ta...

What a transformation! Beautiful job! I especially admire your green concerns and budgetary restraint... Ingenuity and elbow grease make this project.

A stair stepped storage something like this:

Agreeing with most all comments above....I don't think you need to get rid of the cranberry color at all, you just need to add a little more pattern and maybe add another color to the mix. Trade th...

I really like the red and green and the desk is great. I think the bamboo blinds and old oriental rug ideas sound right on. I second the cushion for atop the trunk idea. BUT the $ must be spent at ...

We all have perceptions of what we SHOULD have and SHOULD keep .... it's hard to step outside those ideas and see what really makes sense for our lives right now. I am SO guilty.

While cleaning up pet feces or vomit is quite gross, I don't see why you cannot deposit solids into the toilet and then machine wash a rag as opposed to using a paper towel? I do this every day. My...

You have the Eddie Bauer model listed as $25.95, but when I clicked on the link, the Amazon price was $74.95. Ouch.

So, anyone actually use this yet? Does installing it void your manufacturer's warranty? Looking for the catch...

This is the best recycling idea i've seen in forever. And so well conceived. Absolutely brilliant.

We too are finishing our own re-hab and finding that as we've reached our budget, compromise is inevitable. Like you, our priority was in creating the most energy efficient solutions first and I th...
