Absolutely lovely. However, this is a choice you make strictly for aesthetics. If you're on a budget (or find the idea of $90 for a rain gauge offensive), you can use a tuna can and a ruler or get ...
I am currently using the IKEA Korsby as my bedside light. I particularly like that it has a dim and bright setting. One thing I think is imperative in a bed side light is a very dim setting. Som...
Mark me on the "as long as it is picked up right away" side of the ledger. And also disappointed that not everyone does.
I've been thinking of stealing an idea from a neighbor who has...
I'm undecided on the black ceiling.
On a totally different note, I love her shoe solution. I don't recall having seen in any any of the prior shoe organization threads. I think tha...
I second the cocoa hulls. As mentioned above, they are a waste product with a bonus. They look so wonderful, a neat refined look - you can kind of rake them like a rock garden (and the smell is d...
I'd been planning to enter one of these years, but just as I got my place done, I bought a new home and moved out (Anyone want a small cool(ish?) condo in Detroit - ha!) and can't participate. An...
I have tons and tons of squirrels and safflower seed seems to work best for me. The squirrles aren't interested in it. That and thistle are all I use in my feeders.
Now, if only I co...

I think of that move as "Getting the wrinkles out of the fitted sheet." Dusting? You're not getting rid of dead skin without laundering or maybe vacuuming.
Just started? I think I've had mine for 10 years. The design has changed slightly over the years - for the better. I keep one by each toilet to make cleaning less of a chore - Actually, it is on...
These remind me of my Grandma's 1950s pressed glass Ladies' Snack sets. I have them now. Mine are a little more elegant and a little less sturdy. This update is (arguably) more functional but la...
These people need a bigger bed!
I'm for D with a bed partner no closer than a foot (or he'll get one in whatever happens to be crossing the line). Everybody needs plenty of room to ...
Does it look "clean" or painted on? Does it somehow bleach or does it color the grout? I can't tell from the picture. In my last house a prior resident tried to "paint" the grout white and it di...
You can use www.homeportfolio.com/Designers/index.jhtml to look for designers in your area. Probably a lot of overlap with the Merchandise Mart list. I don't think the pictures there do justice t...
These are interesting but I love my (Grandmother's) antique match box holder. And with a holder, you have the match at your fingertips. No more pesky sliding the box open. That saves me, what, 3...

I can get cocoa hull mulch at most of my local garden centers.
