"Hello, my name is rockypondgirl and I am an IKEA-holic." That said, if Dania or DWR ever offers bookcases for $80, I'm there. (Sweet place, Jess!)

Awesome! I would kill for a place like this. Wish I could see the kitchen.

Let's see. Assume 5 people, $10 mil including renovations, and 7,200 sf. That's 1,440 sf and $2 mil per person. Natalya, would you adopt me please? I promise I'll take less than 10% ...

Wow. I could get behind this as a concept if it were even remotely well-executed (e.g. using ONLY balls, even mortar joints, possibly double-sided, with some attention to the color sch...

Amen, bepsf. Anyone with an IKEA kitchen has frameless cabinets. Nothing new.

What a shame. Looks like it's got vents on the top and sides that can't be blocked, so that rules out making a cabinet to "hide" it. The large fireplace screen idea might work, but re...

Awesome design!

I miss the days when TOH was a DIY show about homeowners working on THEIR OLD houses, and not contractors working on posh renos for the well-heeled. That said, I still watch it obsessi...

If you didn't tell me they were "hide" shaped I would think they were odd Rorschach test patterns. Come to think of it, THAT would be kinda cool.

Yep! Hannaleighh is right--you can totally see the underside of the top tread. BUSTED, Living, Etc.! Hee! I like the wallpaper idea (or highlighting risers in general), but wouldn't us...

Brilliant!

Shrink wrap helps, too, in theory, of course.

I'm one of the luckiest people in the world, apparently! I've got a super-clean laundry room with 4w/4d at 50-cents each for a building of 28 units (I think that's one set for every 7 people). Most...

Toss up between Dove Vitamin C and Dove Plaster. Actually, I'd go for Vitamin C Plaster.

Yaaaaaaayy! Finally someone's cottoned on to how OUT granite counters are.

So, is it from the "American traditions in craftsmanship," or the "non-American influences" that the Benchwright Buffet gets its "we've never heard of a jointer or a plane" appearance?

Nah. Maybe if it were a different style--this one's a bit "Starving Artist" for my taste.

In a heartbeat! I'm seriously thinking of multi-purposing my PC monitor as a TV. Why do I need two screens when I never look at them both at the same time? I don't think I'd miss the size at all--b...

I *hate* doing dishes, hence the dishwasher (which I only run full every few days), but I know some folks who love that chore (no matter--I like doing laundry). redbeard's point about ...
