Although we have lots of disagreements about cleaning, we have very few about decor. Except for the time he put a picture of Spock in the kitchen, which was really not logical.

I dunno... if you're not going to walk on it, you could put just about any plant there. I guess maybe if you're hung up on it being lawn-like... I do like the texture, though. It's ver...

People think it's hot over 75? WA HA HA HA HA HA! I'd be fine without heat, but AC is life support in Houston.

It's funny, I've never had any of the weird foods associated with my own heritage, like the head cheese and black rice, but I lived near Mexico and married a Chinese guy so I've got quite a list of...

I find huge family portraits over the mantle somehow freaky and self-obsessive.

Well, it beats having humungo kids' toys on the floor, and it's much better looking than a lot of activity sets. I'd be worried, though, that by the time the kiddos were able to reach the top of th...

I'm amused, but I wouldn't take it home. I'd feel weird sitting in his lap.

I wouldn't pay to have them done, but I have a couple snapshots of the cats framed and placed along the hallway. It adds a little humor to an otherwise featureless pass-through area. Just snapping ...

empty, you basically have to water everything with an eye dropper. I live in a hot climate, so bitty containers tend to dry out really fast for me. It might be more trouble than it's worth where yo...

For freebies and second-hand stuff, that's pretty amazing! I'm actually liking the rug... it's silly, in a good way... and I'm a big fan of using what you have. Great art and I love the red console.

I totally agree with mixing it up but have trouble making it look as good as either of these rooms myself, so I'm guessing there's a right and wrong way to do it. I notice that in the ...

Re: leaving something for the other party - hasn't worked for me. Most of the time, if I don't clean things, they just won't get clean. And with the less used parts of the apartment - that's pretty...

I'd heard about the catnip. It supposedly keeps rats away as well. (Hmm...!) I'm making catnip vodka to keep away mosquitos and dab on cat toys. I'm hesitant to put it anywhere, though...

I see there are several people of my mindset and yet I don't see "I don't give a f***" on the survey.

Mmm, I don't know if you're going to get that off without removing the stain itself. Of course you could just try sticking post-its all over the desk and spraying it with water. :/ In ...

It's lovely but it's not me.

That second photos is really striking. Not sure I'd want my head hitting my shoes when I sit on the couch, but great lateral thinking. And I love how the lamp comes out of it.

Love it. It's serene, has a bit of froufiness without being saccarine, and a touch of quirkiness. I like objects that are durable enough to age gracefully. A clear plastic chair is just not going t...

abc123 - true, I'm just surprised no one got insulted by the fact that he was in the tub. Anyway. To heck with the world; love your home and make it yours. I'm neither a Buddhist or a ...

I agree; maybe just turning off all the devices would do the trick. Granted, I understand it's easier when you're forced to do it. I think my biggest vacation this year was when Ike hit last summer...
