i have an all white bedroom and it is surprisingly super easy to keep clean. bleach and slipcovers are my best friend!


White Bedrooms That Make Us Weak In The Knees

Before you start with that wall, there is so much visual noise that needs to be taken care of!
1. Get a long and low tv stand
2. Get some artwork
3. Trash that 80's ceiling fan
4. Paint the brick on the fireplace (grey or white)
5. Get the clutter off the mantle, esp. the fake greenery - it's bad feng shui!
5. That wall color does not work with the carpet color
Good luck!

I love the exposed beams in the living room. Props for not painting them grey ala Young House Love.

I love these but no way am I going to spend this much money on something my cat craps in. I took the Ikea hack route with the Stuva box and a curtain in the front. About $45 later and voila, chic kitty crapper.

I have the Ikea Karlstad sofa and I love it! It's deep, cozy, chic and you can't beat the price. I had a Ektorp previously and that sucker never broke in after 2 years of heavy tush traffic.

Celebrity homes bore me. it's usually just their interior designer's vision mixed with their approval. this kind of post is not why i visit AP!

uptown whittier, if this is where this house is, IS quaint. if you disagree you must be from country bumpkinville.

I just got rid of my orange tweed "Jet Set" bench. It was sturdy, roomy, and pretty comfy to put your feet up on, but didn't work well as an ottoman (the fabric started to look raggedy). I saw the white one returned in the store and the material looked really cheap.

i like agave syrup because it mixes so well into my iced tea. but seriously, how bad could these chemicals be? it seems like anything in moderation is fine - whether it be sugar, diet coke, honey, maple syrup, hell, even HFCS. If people are so concerned about chemicals in their body, stay off the freeway, don't go anywhere that has painted walls, and dress yourself in organically grown palm leaves.

i would strongly advise not buying either. if you are going to buy a pedestal table, get a good one to avoid wobbling. i purchased the docksta and returned it because it was a wobbly piece of crap. i tested out the CB2 version in the store and it wobbled also.
