We have the same dilemma, only ours is a gas fireplace with the fake logs and rocks that leave black stains on you if you touch them. Things I've considered so far: 1. Having a piece...

I actually just blogged about this yesterday: http://meamom.blogspot.com/2008/11/pom-poms.html I introduced pom poms when...

Stark for sure. Definitely not my style but the color combo is excellent.

I have both the crib and the dresser. The crib was a snap to put together. The dresser on the other hand... Well, let's just say the thing arrived in 222 pieces. I don't exaggerate; I actually co...

I have the poster and love it.

I am fond of the combos in our house - all porter paint: Oxford white (a very pale blue-gray) Dried Thyme (a wonderful sage green) Spring Meadow (a warm gender neutral yell...

Not a suggestion per se but an observation. I was worried about this too but once the baby arrived, my cat wanted nothing to do with the crib or the baby. I know all cats are different but you mig...

My recommendation is to look for something that's got a voice activation feature. That way you're not hearing the hum of a fan or whatever all night. Also look for one that has lots of different c...

Anyone know a ballpark cost of Hable fabric per yard? I know it's only available trade only but I'm curious of the cost before I search out a designer to get it for me...

Okay, I guess I'm in the minority here but I don't like this. I find it weird to have the bookcase on one end - looks lopsided or something. I don't know...good in concept but not in execution?

Those softies are pretty darn cute, but i love it all.

I think yellow is only bad if it's super bright and saturated. Personally, I love the yellow we ended up using - it's like a neutral but better. We used Spring Meadow from the Porter Paints line....

This disappoints me on so many levels.

This is just sad. I knew a family growing up who named their son Bubba. Yes, you read that right. Four years later they legally changed his name to Skyler. While I would never saddle a child with t...

Well, I had huge dairy cravings when I was pregnant with my first daughter. I drank about a gallon of milk every two days, and ate large amounts of cheese. My daughter ended up having intolerance t...

That link to the simo playpen isn't working for me...

Wipes. Definitely wipes

is there plexiglass or something in front of all those circles on the crib? I would think it would be a perfect climbing wall for an adventurous and determined baby...

We have FLOR low pile in our nursery and it still looks great after nine months of use. The downside as I see it is that it's not very soft or thick but it sure looks great in there! :)

I can't decide if this is cool or slightly depressing. I don't know that I'd want to see a side-by-side comparison of myself aging but it's fun to see the kids change.
