With all due respect to the curator, the Lazo throw looks like its been made from muppet pelts...

I agree with Danica123; it looks like alpaca pelt/patchwork. Quite nice.

Oddly enough, I use a feather bed in the summer over the Tempurpedic. Helps regulate my body temperature better. Also, sleeping naked helps. I'm always over heating if I wear pjs.

Just buy a pound of citric acid at the health food store. Much cheaper that way!

I've got the same sort of backsplash in my kitchen AND bathroom (a remodel dating from the late 70s). Hate it, but it's durable.

Whatever you do, KEEP that gorgeous sink! Update the faucet to match the spiff stainless shelving and I think you'll have a great start!

I've also kept a small micom rice cooker in the locker to cook rice, vegetable/soup mixes that need to cook a while, or other grains.

I work graveyards miles away from any place that I can get meals from. My locker & lunch box is always packed with sea salt & black pepper grinder, toasted sesame oil, soy sauce, smoked kippers (or sometimes brisling sardines). Sometimes I take along a little bottle of EVOO to replace butter.

I'll stick to my 73 year old plaster walls. However, I do need to know where to get that raven print!!!

When I rented a 1 bedroom ~600 sq ft apartment in NE Oregon, it was $430 + $65 in storage unit fees due to lack of space.

I bought a 1800 sq ft home and the mortgage is $496 in same town.

Monthly income is $2k for context.

It's pretty much overkill for Eastern Oregon, too. Regardless, the Wallowa Lake area is still (?) considered prime real estate thus the land's steep price tag. (It's all relative, especially out here in E. Oregon) We've got plenty of skeeters, but it's a nice little design!

Some cigarette cards can be worth quite a bit. Be sure to protect them!

@ninady - The ones I've seen (i.e. the ones in my basement) are screwed into the shelving.

I make my own laundry detergent for a mere fraction of what the featured products cost. Why pay more? Plus, you can put it in whatever sized container that pleases you. ;)

Looking forward to reading these suggestions - I too have a 1937 house with a 1960/70's kitchen. We also seem to have the same stove!
