I know that at least Meyer Wells actually saves trees in the city from being completely destroyed. Their methods are non-toxic, etc. Not sure about the others, but it would be worth looking into be...

What's tackier than having imperfect grammar when speaking? Calling people out on it. We must rebel against this obnoxious behavior.

Interesting question, but I'm not surprised to find everyone with the same knee-jerk reaction. The jig is up, everyone--everything is a social construct. We're all pretty worried about...

So fab! Boxwood, evergreen, whatever, it's all good! I've never seen a wreath like this, so thanks for showing us something unique!

I would be so happy!

To reiterate, @bthursby: I went through this exact same thing...I ordered house numbers online, and then I went to home depot and found some modern ones for about $5/piece. I returned the ones I ha...

@abc123: Good design doesn't have to cost a lot. Period. But some design does cost, and that doesn't make it inherently bad. I was anticipating (and look, I was right) comments from pe...

All awesome places! Vivre is so beautiful. If anyone complains that they can't afford these places....I'm going to gag. It's about the design, people!

Unfortunately, hardly anyone (under 30) entertains like this anymore. The casual life has taken over--from sweatpants in public, and to throwing parties. I moved out of state and away from my circl...

@JG: People shop the day after Thanksgiving...don't you think some people might want a few suggestions before then? Way to criticize the poster, geez.

I work in the design industry in Seattle, and you have a few options. The Seattle Design Center will pair you with a designer, i.e. someone who can buy at the showrooms for you. Just go to seattled...

I don't think the "it's a vase" argument is really the point. Gauging the level of copying is just a red herring in this argument. Clearly, Target is trying to get mileage from Zeisel'...

Love this post! That photo is perfect. I like that it is a real, grown-up decorating dilemma...not just "what kind of slipcover should I get my futon." It's informative too!

Wow! I was the one who emailed this to Decorno, and I'm so glad it made it on to Apartment Therapy! I had no idea that so many other companies had the same horrible practice. I think it's definitel...

Weird...I sort of have the same problem. I'm embarrassed to say that my cat actually peed on my West Elm Thompkins sectional (fabric is light gray cotton/linen). When it happened I took the cover o...

Thanks guys! I had nightmares that ya'll would say it was hideous to begin with or something... Now I have some great sources in case I decide to take on the task. AT readers are awesome!

We have this as our dining room table, but with the dark brown top. It's just me and my husband in an apt. so it's pretty much the perfect size for our dining nook. It's pretty narrow so it can tec...

We have the West Elm sectional (called Thompkins)! Full disclosure: one side of the floor model from the store near our apt. was on sale for $300 (original price: $1,300) and it wasn't damaged or a...

I have to disagree. She speaks Italian, she's had her own catering business, her recipes are easy, fresh and really good. I don't think she's just there for eye candy, and besides: I'd rather watch...

Ha, thanks @Dani...how sadly the little things get lost after you've moved away :(
