Dr. Bronner's is the best! I use the peppermint one in the kitchen and lavender in the bathroom. I use pretty (non-branded) cobalt blue glass pump bottles.

We have no room for enclosed storage in our bathroom (besides the medicine chest), so I store a spray bottle of cleaner hooked (via the handle) onto part of the plumbing behind the sink pedestal. H...

I saw this in someone's home when I was a child and adored it. Now I have a great collection of old ones (via ebay), but have yet to live in an apt. with a powder room, rats! I tried it in a normal...

Little utilitarian things (stamp holder, pill box, napkin rings) in antique sterling. Also sterling flatware (via ebay complete with random monograms--instant ancestors!) deeboyayay--y...

Is there supposed to be a square cushion atop the straps? If so, you could (temporarily) wrap string/twine/nylon cord wrap around the inner frame (assuming the smaller square comes out?). As long a...

Love it! The World Monuments Fund helped restore this in the 1980's.

Years ago I put out a set of crappy wood chairs (from my parent's house!) on the street and a day later saw them at Billy's.

I was just in Montreal and wondered how all those outdoor metal stairs fare in the ice and snow? Looks dangerous! I think the difference between these and similar ones in other cities is the exteri...

At our Catskills place (which has tons of storage), the "Museum of Ancient Food" is above the fridge--ie 1920s-50s packaging, not actually acient food (well, some still have their contents, but not...

We only have old phones (dials and more recent push-button), the ring can't be beat and they worked like a charm during Sept. 11th and the blackout. In our country place, we only have...

I bought a cute cup measuring set from Anthropologie--and it was totally inaccurate!

We have this at our Catskills place (already featured on AT): http://flickr.com/photos/marstin/622294662/in/set-...

Fun! Wish I were in LA...

I got a set of cool looking vintage dumbells on ebay for cheap (like $15?). Like these, except nicer looking and 5lbs each:

I had a little painted-over door in my old apt, but since air/fire escape was on the other side, I figured it was a cold storage bin? I also had a painted-over dumbwaiter (for trash?).

A friend's grandmother used to keep a stuffed tiger (shot on safari back in the day, I'm sure) and when people would comment on it, she's say, "Daddy was a Princeton man." Loved it! A...

How does one buy these exactly? There's no "add to cart" only "limited quantities available" (or something like that).

I bought a vintage hose cart kind of thing with a wheel/roll and I couldn't figure it out! The only way it'd work was to unhook it from the water source each time you roll it up, not v. efficient. ...

Plastic seems gross for this, imagine on a hot sunny day? I love old faded wood Adirondack chairs, it's part of the charm!

Hmm... I do this already with a clean linen dishtowel.
