What a pretty picture of the city!

I'm forced to move from my affordable Southie apartment to a new place for Nov 1 after my landlords announced that they are selling. After 5 years in the same apartment (luckily no rent hikes) and 7 years in the city, it's definitely sticker shock to see what others pay! I'm currently exploring the option of condo ownership until the September apartment rush passes. It's amazing to think that putting $300,000 MAX budget into a condo search in the city of Cambridge gives zero results.... So SAVE SAVE SAVE if you're thinking of buying in or near Boston eventually!!

Beautiful home!

It's nice to know that even the most well kept, envy-worthy homes have wrinkly slip-covered couches.

For our narrow hallway, I used a wooden photo frame with the rocks on top. (It's a frame that holds 3 - 5" x 7" photos) It was a less expensive and easier to find than a serving tray. I made the mistake of not taking out the glass which has since broken under the rocks.

I was searching for tile for hours for a work project on Friday! Hopefully my time spent will be helpful to you.

This website has list of tile companies and their websites-it was working on Friday but appears to be down right now...

I'm a big fan of homemade pizza. Pre-made dough cost less than $2 and I get the toppings from the salad bar at the grocery store. I only buy what I need for the pizza and the preparation is so simple since everything is already cut up. Some salad bars even have shredded cheese (or feta) and pepperoni. Healthy, delicious, and very inexpensive!

My mom just made a bunch of these using the dried flowers from my sister's bridal bouquet. They came out great, a nice keepsake instead of a dusty bouquet of dried flowers.

I know 4 different people who have had house fires and way too many people that have had their homes broken into. It's worth every penny. My insurance was less than $300 (broken up into 5 payments) for $25,000 worth of coverage.... Yeah, I'd rather use that $300 to buy something fun, but imagine having to replace everything...

aspw- Grommets are easy to put in, they come in a kit and you just hammer them together. I've never done grommets quite as large as you would need though.

A friend just got grommet curtains from Target. See link below.
