I think that Kid Kraft one is the way to go if you must have a new, modern toddler bed.
We got a plain light wood Shaker-style one off of Craigslist for $40 for our son. Not modern, b...
I noticed the article mentioned that Sherwin-Williams' Harmony paint didn't fare well on the CR survey. But has anyone used Sherwin-Williams' Duration paint? I'm curious as to the durability, cover...
Our son uses the adjustable Bjorn potty ring along with a small stool and that combo has worked well for us. That said, he wasn't potty trained until he was 3, so it wasn't a big deal to have him c...
Thirding the too expensive comments... As much as I like the designs and the washability, I can still get a nice 8x10 wool rug at Homegoods for much less $ than the equivalent in synthetic Flor tiles.
I have a Braun stick blender and loooooove it. It's so versatile, easy to clean, and takes up very little room. I really love the mini-chop attachment, it's so much easier than lugging out the food...
I'm in the market for some reusable grocery bags, but our family uses at least 5 or 6 bags each weekly grocery trip. Is there a huge benefit to buying Envirosax's $8 bags over Whole Foods' $1 reusa...
We use white noise machines in our kids' rooms. They definitely block out household and outside noise and let them sleep. We just got the cheapo Homedics ones at Target, they were something like $2...
Magnetic pad on the fridge. It's the only thing that's ever worked for our family, and it's cheap and low-tech. However, on Friday nights I have a standing date in front of the computer screen to c...
Does anyone know of any problems microwaving vintage Pyrex? I have accumulated a small collection but want to make sure there aren't any safety issues - I think most of what I have is from the 60s ...
Yay for Ikea Hemnes! We just got an 8 drawer Hemnes, and it is fantastic. So much storage for a great price, and it's very very sturdy. My girl is a toddler, too be changed up so high, but were she...
That is really motivating to me - I've been putting off painting our kitchen cabinets/walls, but this looks really beautiful.
Is there a way around using an oil-based paint on the cab...
I have a clutter problem. My husband and I are way too tolerant of our clutter, but I desperately want to get organized and eliminate (or at least minimize) the extraneous junk. The two things that...
re trivets: Would Flor samples work as a trivet for really hot pans and baking dishes? I've got a dozen samples and have often thought of using them for this purpose, but I'm afraid that the synthe...
That thing is hideous.
PrettyKitty, after using (and repeatedly tripping over) a gigantic $100 standard-issue-from-BabiesRus high chair with our first child, we got the Antilop from Ik...

My almost-4-year old son gets High Five and loves it. When it comes in the mail he's glued to it for the rest of the day.

Yeah, the cynic in me finds this depressing too. Certainly not all office jobs are soul-crushing, but still...
