The ONLY excuse I can see for their grouping of such predictable and easily attainable titles is that these bundles would make nice gifts for the "book lover" in your life.
Even then, some personalized selections would be much preferred.

cactus pups are our faves! there are plenty of $5 - $12 toys to choose from and our girls (who are 5 and 10) love picking out new blind boxes to add to their collections on each trip.

they have the cheapest ugly dolls in the city of chicago, too. they've become a birthday party staple for us as they're the perfect unisex gift.

10 years of mothering girlie girls has made me learn to appreciate a really great heart pattern when I see one. (but really, they're all stunning sets).

This is a really stunning home! Everything has so much personality and seems comfy and cozy.

Additionally, it's always interesting to see the same pieces in a different setting. I particularly like the wall hanging that was displayed horizontally in your kitchen flipped on it's side in the living room. And I'd be a fool not to mention how much I love the Russel Wright collection tucked away in your kitchen. Thanks for sharing (again).

dmadura...love your Jay Ryan prints! I've got a few oldies but goodies in storage that really deserve framing. Maybe they'll adorn our walls by week 7 or 8 of the cure. However, we're burning through our budget pretty quickly over here with a few larger purchases (area rug, bookshelf, etc) so they may have to wait another few months.

seriouslydramatic...that is one pristine and lovely kitchen. Congrats on your progress!

Moryse...you know I love everything in your place, including the landing strip but I can't wait to see what changes you make over the next several weeks.

thanks for posting our living room pic. curtains, or window dressings of some kind, are definitely on the to do list. as this has been a somewhat challenging space for us to decorate I welcome any suggestions. whatever we add, we don't want to block out too much of the light coming in.

First Apartment Therapy post ever! I've enjoyed the site as a reader/voyeur for nearly two years but the time has come for me to seek a little Apartment Therapy therapy. I'm a collector of things and have a horrible time letting go of them as is likely very evident in my before photos. I'm hoping to part with as many unnecessary possessions as I can in the coming weeks and am mentally prepared for the initial shock, if any. My other major goal is finding a furniture arrangement that works well in our 2nd floor greystone apartment. Though plentiful, the space is a challenging one. I'll try to have a floor plan scanned in sometime tomorrow. I'm looking very forward to everyone's help and feedback in creating a healthier home.
