Not for no $600!

Sorry, I like to throw in some bad grammar when I am outraged.

Remember this works best for temporary storage. I stored my winter coats like this in those vacuum storage bags over the summer and basically ruined them. They came out wrinkled as all get out! Have you ever tried to iron a wool coat?

I can understand why he might not want a round table in that space. The size you would need to mimic that curve would be huge and take up too much space. I like his idea of the barnyard style table to contrast the modern feel of the windows. I would also add open style draperies from floor to ceiling to soften the area.

yes, I have had BAD experiences with solar lights. they generally don't work. Maybe at a much higher price point?

Don’t be fooled. Silver Springs is pricey. If you are a school administrator in your 20’s with three kids don’t expect to live like this, even if you do thrift shop. The “standard-issued colonial” she speaks of are highly coveted due to the proximity to DC and ran upwards of a million during the recent boom.

With that being said, it is a lovely well put together home. I loved the tour.

I wanted a new kitchen, and justified this because my disposal was busted...new disposal, new sink, new countertops, etc. etc.

After a year of a !leaky! disposal and talking to contractors and crying because I really didn't have the money, I replaced the damn disposal. $100, and now I have at least a functional kitchen.

I went to CS last weekend for shoe racks. They were all crap! I was so disapointed. They were not sturdy or solid, or anything. I feel like I have looked at all the usual places (Walmart, Target, etc.). Am I missing some fab quality, mid range place?

Target is for college students and teenagers. They can buy the latest fad for cheap and do it again next year. I will buy coat hangers or a can opener at Target but not furniture.

I love the stickers on the bed. At what point do you come home drunk and decide, I am gonna stick this radio station promotional sticker on my headboard!!
