Totally love it and love the color combo. But I agree with the other posts that I'd try to sell it as is first. Where did you get that fabric? I'm about to reupholster two chairs and w...

I think it's a fun idea but agree that it's functionally limited and the price too high for just an accent piece. But it's a cute DYI. I actually think a wall hanging version would be...

I think people should spray paint huge XX's and bedbug warnings on their furniture to make sure it really doesn't get picked up since signs can blow away or are hard to see at night. P...

marcspice, I just checked out those photos. That apt is unbelievable disgusting; my mind can't make sense of it. So sad. I find it curious that the ironing board is out and looks like it was used. ...

I too just use a clear plastic container with lid and have had no issue with orders. I usually empty it once a week.

Would this be for product design, furniture design, or interior design? If you include furniture, would the piece have to be in production or could it be a prototype? If it's the latter, a large am...

My sofa is at least 30 years old and while the cushions are past their prime, they're not in terrible shape. I had been thinking of replacing it with R&B sofa sometime in the future but this post i...

Very cool lamps, but I'd hate to dust them.

If you want to keep the shelving, I'd remove the shelving on the fireplace, make sure the shelves were symmetrical, add a strip of wood to the front of the existing shelves so they look fatter, and...

I think I saw this room in a Seinfeld episode... Anyway, back to the subject at hand. Without a floorplan, I don't know what's happening behind the corner. But I'd place a long dining ...

I agree with eden713, don't buy the house if you really don't love the pine. Otherwise, buy it and freshen the look with light colored furniture and natural details. I'd go for a Scand...

So true, but why so many outlets?

missmouse--From image #7, it looks like the adhesive plate hangers have a hook that allow you to hang from a nail. Couldn't tell for sure but I think these are all hanging from little nails.

The best tip someone told me is when picking a room color place the color chip in a corner--that will be most like the color of your wall once it's painted. Too often you place a chip in the center...

She designed it and had her father make it. It is stunning and practical.

I peeled a dozen eggs this weekend to make deviled eggs for a cocktail party. This would have been handy. Will try pricking them with a needle next time. Thanks!

Personally I'd paint the crown molding, chair rail and base molding and call it a day. I don't think I'd paint them white but would paint them the same or similar color to my wall color (for that d...

I like the idea of a mattress being able to air out. So having it sit directly on the floor just doesn't seem that hygienic.

True, true:)

slowdown- I probably won't be able to sway your opinion but just to explain that my products sell at Target so it's a bit hard to say that people can't afford the real thing. Competing companies ha...
