Lots of peanut butter options...I wish my daughter wasn't allergic!

Where is the floor lamp in the 1st room from? Anyone have any idea?

I love this room!

Where are the white bins (the ones in the EXPEDIT) from?

Puella, I have the pastel version of that kitchen too. It also comes in the brighter colors now. If only I had waited...

Great colors! Where is all of the artwork from? And the lamp?

This room is amazing! I would love to create something like this for my daughters!

Any tips on the lanterns on the walls (they don't look like decals)? How would a non-painter go about learning how to paint them?

I can't wait to try this! Thanks for the tips, Holly and Julia.

How wonderful! I love this idea and may try to do it for my daughter's 3rd bday which is this weekend.

Quick question: I'm very technologically challenged, so do you think this would work using any printer. We have an HP Deskjet and I'm not sure the photos would come out. Suggestions or tips?

Her gardens are even more beautiful in person. And she is absolutely lovely too!

I could move in to their home now! So beautiful!

The wine rack is great! It's so nice to find a use for an otherwise empty wall.

And don't get me wrong, I'm a huge fan, but I'm curious about the practicality of this with a child? As the mother of a toddler, I would assume you can't put anything on the bottom 8-10 racks. And then I'd always be worried about the little one poking her eye out while running around...just a thought.

Anyone know of any great classes like this in NYC?

I am assuming people are talking about this after the article in Sunday's Styles section of the NY Times. I must admit, I talked about it a bit.

It's funny that this is one of today's posts because we are going to be painting and reupholstering some new dining chairs that we bought at IKEA last weekend. Here are the chairs:

and here is the fabric:

I've never even attempted to do something like this myself, so I hope it comes out well. Who knows? It could be the beginning of my life as a DIY-er...

It looks comfy but I agree with the above posters that it seems like it would be hard to get out of with a sleeping baby. Also, the woman in the top photo is breastfeeding a naked child. Am I the only one who thinks that's odd? I would have certainly been peed on a lot if I tried that...

Freakin' gorgeous! I love it!

I love that color and agree that it should be brought into the rest of the living room maybe in pillows, a throw, or some decorative pieces.

My favorite flower! Sadly, they are hard to find here in NYC and when I do find them, they are quite pricey.

Ok, so I had to comment on this because we just (1 week ago) completed our kitchen work and we also used the Nexus Yellow-Brown cabinets. We chose Caesarstone in Eggshell for the countertops, Ann Sacks glass tile for the backsplash, and an Ann Sacks ceramic tile for the floor tile. You can see photos here:

I think Home Depot now has a very pretty glass tile that you could use for the backsplash. The walls and floors were the hardest decisions for me too, but now I am extremely pleased with the outcome!

Good luck!

Ana and Bob,
What an incredible apartment! Very warm and inviting. Where did you get the living room rug? And does it shed?

Thanks!

I adore the rug in the living room. Anyone know where it is from?
