I painted my bedroom black because of that photo that is at the top. I loved the photo so much I figured I'd love it in my room too and I do! It's not done yet, but I really love the black walls wi...

I really love young house love. Their can do attitude is infectious. http://www.younghouselove.com/

I think it was a neat idea in theory but the Rustoleum whiteboard paint is just not a good product. I posted after photos on my blog though so that my ugly DIY can serve as a warning. BAD PAINT BAD...

So it's been about seven months since I did that table and although it looks pretty in pictures, it looks horrible in person. The paint DID NOT hold up well at all. We're currently sanding down the...

Depending on the yarn used, it can be more like a cotton ball and thus doesn't absorb the way a washcloth would. Also depending on the yarn, there are some you can use to scrub pots etc too.

My favorite right now is a blue damask couch I purchased the other day for $80. The fabric is just lovely http://geekdetails.com/blog/?p=2032 ...

I tried "want, need, wear, read" for awhile but it didn't make *me* happy. I like giving my kids gifts of things I know they'd love. I don't think it's teaching them that happiness comes from stuff...

I can see two of the dinosaurs on either side of my bed... They remind me of a scene in FireFly where Wash is playing with dinosaurs. "I think we should call it your grave." "Curse your sudden but ...

That's super easy to do! I had a tacky brass job in my new house so we took it down, cleaned it, primed it, and painted it. I put in new round light bulbs and it turned out awesome!

I have it set up so I can watch tv comfortably when I want to (I don't watch a lot of it) AND so the guys can do rock band parties or movie nights with loads of people. It works out better at this ...

That's freaking awesome! Especially if you use beat up books that are on their last legs. It's upcycling at its finest.

I have the teal and red thing going on to (love it btw)! I also like just the teal with black and white. My bedroom is painted dark gray (practically black) and I have white and teal accents in it....

You can pick it up on amazon for $23...

I've planted several over the years and I always manage to kill them off. I'm not sure what I do wrong but all my terrariums end in death and destruction. I tried one with prehistoric looking plant...

I love the rose pouf too. It would look great in a red or a teal

I love the color of this bedroom and the idea behind it. I also like that it isn't the play it safe type of room that seems to pop up on AT a lot. The window covering gave me the nudge I needed for...

I like the idea but not particularly the one pictured.

I love having real flowers in my house, but I'm not opposed to fakes either. Right now I have a whole vase full of fake long stemmed roses that have little singing faces in the middle of the flower...

I painted my table recently (also an oak color and the finish was chipping off). I painted the legs in espresso to match my chairs and then painted the top in whiteboard paint. It looks pretty spif...
