A tip: some magazines have more resale value than you think. I learned this the hard way trying to buy old issues of Martha Stewart Weddings once I got engaged. I ended up spending quite a lot on e...

Funny you should post this -- I keep looking at it and *almost* buying it. Anybody have one and want to post a review?

The only problem with signing up for mailing lists is that it encourages you to shop more than you might otherwise. Or at least that is what happens with me!

I don't really like TV in the bedroom, but if I owned a home I would absolutely get one of those TV-in-mirror devices in the bathroom. I would love to have the news on while I'm getting ready for w...

My favorite is English Breakfast tea from Fortnum & Mason.

I plan to steam my drapes, a couple of dresses, and a polo shirt that has developed a weird crease but that I can't bring myself to dry clean. Oh, and if it's not too hot, I may steam my cats. They...

If you don't mind a more old-fashioned design, there are usually a lot of victorian through art deco wardrobes for sale on craigslist for really cheap (the hassle of moving I guess). At least where...

I think craigslist (depending on where you live) and ebay will be your best bets here. Search for "Louis bed" -- painting the frame white and reupholstering the head and footboards are not too hard...

Are you kidding me? New York is so much more walkable than San Francisco. I've lived in both cities. I think Walkscore can only tell you so much.

Does anyone know where glass and brass coffee table in the first picture is from?

I'm really not sure how you're ever going to feel at home without your pet. Any chance of the boyfriend trying to live with the cat? It will definitely be hard for him at first, but a...

I second jawasano, our beloved family cat used to "guard" me when I was a baby by patrolling around my crib and sleeping at my feet. He even appears in a portrait of me as a baby that my grandmothe...

Very stylish! I don't know what she means about not being able to find a bed for her cat to rest in by the window -- "window seats" for cats are all over the pet retail market. I have two of them. ...

It's great to see people that appreciate art deco tiles and bath fixtures! I have them in my current apartment and really love them. My fiancé and I have been house-hunting and I can't tell ...

I have that phone in white -- I believe it's called a "genie." I'm not sure about Carrie's phone from Sex and the City, but I have been trying to find the vintage(?) flip number clock ...

I think that dining table is hot. Anyone recognize it?

Kudos Chris and Mike! This is the first entry I've gotten really excited about. Love your style and your use of color. I especially love the dining room with that beautiful Chinese cabinet and the ...

I'm a sucker for animal lamp bases.

Here's the short pitch: I love to test things out and am good at product reviews, I print everything from Word documents to high-res photos, and the printer I used all through college ...

I sympathize with the "too much brown" syndrome. It seems like every piece of furniture in our living room is wood and most of it is in the same deep color. This is because most of it was inherited...
