I'm not crazy about any of the Green names . . . none of them make much sense to me. Am I just not getting something? I do like Shannon's suggestions, and agree with Faith that sustainablist is great. Apartment Therapy - Editor Survey Flag this comment	11/8/07 7:46 AM
Samantha, what is the real name of the "screaming supergrover" color? I love it. Apartment Therapy - #9 - Samantha and Jacob's Celebration of Color Flag this comment	10/15/07 7:07 AM

my house is needing some major curing right now (it looks great until you open a closet . . . or a cabinet, or a sideboard, or a dresser) so I'm definitely gonna be there! Apartment Therapy - The Fall Cure: Starts Next Monday! Flag this comment	9/5/07 8:58 PM
Hi MamaChilanga and Angie - I need to go double check on the paint colors - we changed our mind at the last minute and I can't remember the names, but they're both from Benjamin Moore. The sink is original to the house, which was built in 1935. I'll get the name of the maker and post it here soon. Thanks everyone, and let me know if you have any more questions! Slinksn.

sell what clothes I can to somewhere like Buffalo Exchange, give the rest to Salvation Army sell furniture on Craigslist pretty much everything else goes out on the curb and is always gone in less than 24 hours. I'm really curious what it is about Craigslist that makes people uncomfortable - can anyone explain? How do You Get Rid of Stuff? Flag this comment	7/18/07 12:26 PM
IKEA had one a while ago http://brownerbrown.wordpress.com/2007/02/22/ikea-madness/ Good Questions: Mesh Dome to Protect Produce? Flag this comment	7/2/07 2:59 PM
I usually find that weekday evenings are good for getting together large groups, people are less likely to have plans. A park sounds good, or a bar? Good Questions: Design Get-Togethers? Flag this comment	5/17/07 11:43 PM
Also - about the pegboard - we have it all over our kitchen (it came with the place) and I LOVE it. When we moved in I was skeptical that we'd actually use it, but it has been such a great thing - with limited/awkward cabinet space and practically no drawers at all it allows all of our pots and pans to be up on the wall as well as things like potholders, tongs, measuring cups, measuring spoons, juicer, colander, grease shield, etc. It totally rocks.

So beautiful and functional - such amazing attention to detail. Which is especially important in a small space. It's also manages to be very modern but really classic, not the kind of kitchen you'll walk into twenty years from now and say "Oh man, this is so 2000's." I second Jeni_Rae - this is sort of my dream kitchen. Small Cool 2007: Finalist #6 - Phoebe's Crisp Organic Flag this comment	5/17/07 11:17 PM
I think this is a great idea, but maybe could be organized by neighborhood? (I'm in Oakland, for example, and while I don't mind going into San Francisco, I notice that people don't love coming out to Oakland.) Good Questions: Design Get-Togethers? Flag this comment	5/16/07 12:16 PM
IKEA used to make a table almost exactly like this. No clue if they still do or not, but I clearly remember it. Flip Card Table Flag this comment	5/1/07 3:23 PM
Posted this last week, but thought I would try again: anyone have a recommendation for a simple white shower curtain that doesn't need a liner? I love CB2's canvas shower curtain (http://www.cb2.com/family.aspx?c=476&f=3283) but called customer service who said they strongly recommend using a liner with it, and I just hate having a curtain and a liner. I'm open to synthetic but it would be nice if it doesn't look "synthetic." Thanks! Open Thread 424 Flag this comment	4/30/07 9:05 AM

This is great, but does anyone have advice for scales that are super accurate and look good? I currently have the Sharper Image glass scale (http://tinyurl.com/37tlv9) which is nice looking and blends in well to the bathroom, but several years down the road it's having some major accuracy problems. You can weigh yourself, walk out of the room, come back in, and get a reading that's 2lbs different. Ahh! It drives me crazy! Anyone have any luck with this?
