This is one of my fave home tours! Love the brights, and how she's organized all those treasures into something that doesn't seem cluttered at all.

I'm sticking to my story.

My resolution is to not get depressed about my closet when I look at pictures of 'closets' that are clearly clothes stores.

WTF?! Are you kidding me with that?! Wow.
Just... wow. Unless those are made of space rock, they're about $145 overpriced. (Even then, I'd say $140.)

I've read far too many Ennis/Ellis comics to be okay with this.

ElleOh, I was coming to say the exact same thing!
I love you, AT - but I'm scrolling right through those 2 pages of single-picture posts of poufs and chairs. I'd definitely stop to see a collection or gallery, but this is getting ridiculous!

Last year when I did the cure, I asked a similar question about mine (but my GOD, your upholstery is so much better!)

Yours looks VERY similar, and I think the name tossed around was Sigrun Bulow-Hube for a Canadian furniture company (AKA?) maybe you can find out more!

(And seriously, I need your upholsterer's name.)

i don't wanna criticize too harsh, because it seems like people are totally responding positively to this post (which is rad!) but i SWEAR i've seen this set-up used in this 'cool art hanging!' context at least once before. am i crazy, AT'ers?

The comment threads are hilarious today! Straighten out your panties, people. Also hilarious? In my neighborhood that hideous painting would be priced at way higher than a new canvas. No such thing as a "Thrift Store" in Vancouver anymore.

i'm pretty sure the price on the good mod desk is actually a shipping quote, not a product price. most of their shipping seems to be in that range, with actual prices being quite a bit higher.

My pop made me an amazing framed chalkboard with a flip-up lidded mail/stuff space attached. Looks kinda like something you'd see in an old schoolhouse. Anyways, it's wicked handy and I'm sure you could DIY a two-piece by combining a floating shelf or drawer with a writing surface or a mirror (which are awesome for light AND dry-erase markers! double points!)

argh! changing with the seasons is something only people with storage lockers can do. the rest of us just try to hide our "not quite right just yet" purchases under the bed. or behind the shower curtain.

a nice variation on battered tofu is my new favourite food:
toss cubed tofu in a skillet with a touch of oil (or butter, if you prefer.) lightly brown all sides. Pour nutritional yeast over cubes to cover, then shake a few splashes of bragg's over. stir to coat, adding a touch more braggs as needed. let it crisp up, about 3 or 4 minutes. DELICIOUS!

Im with the majority and vote option 1- gorgeous!

In the interest of clarity, everything BUT the old plywood sign in my living room is held up by command adhesive. That one needed some special help, and some truly horrifying holes in my wall. Oh well, they tell me plaster is easy to repair.....

I don't own any 3M stock, but I'm telling you : go buy that stuff, it's truly impressive!
