Dave, I am sorry that you are struggling with this issue. The immediate problem that I see is not the hoarding, but that you are boiling over with anger after 10 years of this situati...

This is in Minneapolis, so your local market may be different, but I just want to let you know: I went and toured some lovely lofts in a historical building. There were three for sale at the time. ...

"A vintage medicine cabinet provides storage and style" That mirror is not shabby chic, it is ghastly. It would not be out of place in an outhouse, but here, it ruins the rest o...

Please, it is ridiculous to buy sofas without testing them first. No matter how pretty they are. I learned that lesson the hard way. I have a to-die-for chocolate leather chesterfield from France...

Interesting idea, hope it continues to work out for you. What I'm really excited about is that you used "I" instead of "we". Most bloggers seem to feel that nosism is an absolute neces...

I have a very old chocolate leather chesterfield from France. The leather is a little cracked in some spots, but it's gorgeous. Problem is...it's not comfortable, the seat depth is short. Unless yo...

What a fun home you have! I enjoyed the house tour very much. It seems straight off the pages of a book I just bought called Bazaar Style. Thanks for sharing your home with us.

Oh so very very now .

Roelofs, it's not as though the occupants just sponge painted the Sistine Chapel. I get (as I'm pretty sure everyone does) that you are a purist, but...maybe you are overreacting just a tad?

I'm pretty sure the first bedroom is in a rental storage unit.

I'm with all the Diva Cup fans. Get thee a Diva Cup stat! After having the Diva Cup for 2 years now, I do believe I would rip out my uterus before I'd return to tampons. There is inde...

Ha Daily Nuance! That's precisely what I was thinking...I am hoping the situation described is actually a made-up-for-blogging example of a situation we can all relate too, cuz...if it's not...what...

Garden Junque makes it to AT. Wow. I didn't see that coming. Does this mean Bathtub Madonna's are going to be the next hot must-have? I'm actually hoping it's the flower-tire planters....

I had to go with Now. For me it's the walls and floors painted the same tinted white...all architecture is painted out so the focus is on the lovingly collected vintage items. That feels very prese...

Agree on the Anthroplogie store window reference...these look like props. Kind of like the bizarre clothing on the fashion runways...meant to spark interest and conversation but not to be worn by r...

I used to live in a very rough part of Minneapolis. I had three larger dogs, and the neighbors to either side of me had one small dog and no dog at all, respectively. Both had their homes burglariz...

I just had to move my Select Comfort pillowtop mattress, and when I took it apart it looked perfect. I've had it for several years. I'm a dust mite phobe, so I keep mine mostly encased in a mattres...

I really liked this place. I LOVE the red asian buffet/chest. And I am always impressed by a lovely shoe collection. I could see what the people who were talking about it not "working"...

What a fun post. I have an old airstream trailer that I haven't used in a few years due to time constraints, but now, I think I will pull it into the backyard and have a campout anyway.

What the hell???? The Minneapple is the coolest, cleanest city. Please represent us right. This is embarrassing.
