I adore the orange graphic hand towel in the bathroom. Please tell me where it's from. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

We recently bought a red clock at Target that we love, love, love! The inside color is a faint aqua and matches the paint on our kitchen wall. It cost about 30 bucks and isn't noisy. Here's a short...

I love the concept and I really hate to be a Debbie Downer... but somehow I can't just get past the fact that these things kinda look like uncooked sliced potatoes.

Lovely room. Where's the chair from? It's great!

Jason: Love the "After!" curtains. Where are they from???

For years, my husband has been using a wooden pants hanger as shown, in our kitchen to hold his recipes while he cooks. Placed through the cupboard handle, the recipes are at perfect viewing height...

If you are craving deviled eggs but don't have time to cook these up and you happen to be in NYC -- you MUST try the deviled eggs appetizer at Resto. Resto: East 29th between Lex and Park. The rest...

Just last week, I bookmaked the ASPA's list of toxic and non-toxic plants for dogs, cats and horses. And it's put together in a really smart, sensible way!

Usually I swoon over stars' apartments, mansions, etc. But not this one. More yawns. I'd like to see what John Mayer's place looked like before he was famous. Probably had much more soul.

The "Bed-in-a-Bag" merchandising concept. By this, I mean those awful, polyester comforter, shams and sheet sets for the totally uncreative. Feh!

While I never *like* to see anything related to the interiors business fold, but c'mon, Southern Accents was pretty tired. Big fan of Garden & Gun magazine (don't cringe, it's more ga...

Please let us all know what worked!!!

I have mixed feelings about the whole IKEA thing. Our place is a combination of nice antiques (all hand-me-downs from in-laws), two IKEA Pax closets that we've had for 10 ears, and a...

And if you're in NYC, Sam Flax on West 20th Street is closing and has great prices on frames. Can't remember if I saw poster-sized frames, but very good deals to be had.

Tough to explain, but I'll try. What if you were to angle a divider (e.g., bookshelf, curtain) from the entrance of the kitchen, at the point where the fridge starts? Continue almost to the right e...

I nominate MY NYC apartment hallway for the worst colors, and combination thereof. An 80s renovation gone bad: Flesh with mauve trim. Or, is it mauve with flesh trim? I happen to have...

Even though I am too late to guess, it was easy. The giveaway for me was the style of picture frame (thickness of wood, chunky mat). A thinner frame would have indicated an earlier period.

Looks like a beautiful bench -- but even without sitting in it, I know that it would be uncomfortable! Think what all those 'branches' will feel like, pressing into your back as you sit back.

The *correct* way? Over the top, of course. Just like the maids do in most hotel bathrooms. But sadly, my kooky kitty tends to pull down the toilet paper with his paws -- only when it...
