Maybe there should be a hyphen in No-Sweat. I had to read it three times before I realized it wasn't about sweat stains.

I would be doing all those other things to cover up a fried onion smell.

Yes, it's a sewing machine table.

I think it depends on the toilet seat. I would do a visual inspection and then make the decision. Most toilet seats are plastic and can be thoroughly cleaned, but some are painted wood and may have...

There are only 10 lamps listed--what's the twisty blue ginger jar lamp at the end of the first row?

I agree with the first poster on painting the brick and mantel a charcoal. I think it would make a nice contrast with the black insert. I would do semi-gloss or eggshell, though, rather than either...

Throw pillows, a rug, and a plant. And lose that piece of art above the bed. It really isn't enhancing anything. Really. I would do solid color throw pillows in a dark green or even bl...

My first thought was Heywood-Wakefield also.

I like the curved wall, but it's your place; if you hate it, get rid of it!

My grandmother had a wall-hung refrigerator just like that! It was pink and barely held anything. GE.

I would get the biggest blank canvas I could find and get creative. You can do something very abstract, which is fairly easy, even if you are not particularly artistic. If you don't like it, you ca...

The room in the first picture does not appear to be the same room as the one in the other pictures.

Last time I looked, around September, our local Home Depots were selling the oops paint at 1 dollar per quart and 5 dollars per gallon, which is a steal. Selection changes daily, and they sometimes...

To be honest, I don't care for either one. Their are elements of the old apartment that I like, but it is just blindingly white. The new apartment evokes 70's disco-tacky.
