I just had a bunch of my stuff moved from L.A. to Colorado. Renting a Uhaul trailer was going to be about $900. A Uhaul truck was going to be a lot more. So I got a moving company to do it. They to...
Yea, as posted above- try to do something about the lighting first. Try changing the bulbs. Both fluorescents and regular blubs come in different temperature ranges. I just changed out some soft wh...
Not sure where you live but if you're above 3500 feet they take longer. I live at 6200 feet and they take hours and hours and hours- at least eight hours and that's after soaking. Last time I did i...
Why even have a sink? Or a bed? This is ridiculous. Only a mentally ill person or someone who is obscenely wealthy and has someone to take care of everything for him, including the essentials such ...
Hideous hideous carpet. Yes, carpet. In a kitchen. It boggles the mind. The bathroom also had carpet (whaaaa? ya) but we tore it out down to the original wood subfloor and painted it red. It looks ...
College girl upstairs who had parties constantly, complete with breaking windows and otherwise destroying the place. When my boyfriend went up to complain (after they shattered a big picture window...
To prevent scratching the furniture in the first place, get her a scratcher or scratching post (I know, they're pretty ugly). Even those cheap carboard ones work great (and can be put out of the wa...
Not sure about sharing a bedroom with a roommate but it is nice to have a seperate dressing/clothing storage area.
The stuff that's pictured above seems both expensive and hard to und...
It is unfortunate that people can't just do the right thing without neighbors or roommates having to leave notes for them. I suspect that by the time the notes got this "passive aggressive" there h...
I have a similar "shelf" at my house and the boyfriend is constantly vexed by it and wants to fill it with crap. I think it's stupid and choose to ignore it by keeping it empty. I agree with all th...
Great idea! After I saw this I ran right out to the local camping store and picked up a couple of metal camp tables to use as bedside tables. I have a really cramped space and they fit perfectly. I...
Obviously everyone who is participating in a decorating forum cares about their homes. Unfortunately this is pretty rare in the real world. I have been renting my house out and the tenants just do ...
These are all great ideas, even the curry one (sounds delish actually). I have a sick cat who will only take his medicine if it's mixed with tuna water (he likes just the water, not the actual tuna...
I don't know. It IS Pretty. And there ARE a lot of restored Victorian's out there already. It's not like this is the only old house in SF.
However, I wonder if it's going to look like...
I'm cracking up over all the nastiness and trollishness being spewed in a DECORATING forum! Such passion for such a lowly subject (bed, floor, lowly, get it?).
In one of my homes I hav...
Electric stove was always a dealbreaker for me before.
But the last place I lived did have electric and it really wasn't that big a deal in the end. I had a much harder time adjusting...
I bought some naan awhile ago and only used one piece in a recipe, then last week during the cleaning out of the fridge I thought about using it up but couldn't come up with how so I stuck it in th...

If you get the working glasses, get the lids while you're at it. They make great storage for leftovers, lunches, etc.
