I always use a moist warm kitchen cloth. It works great. For some reason, using an old plastic bag is icky to me. Can You Guess What's Under These Plastic Bags? | Apartment Therapy The Kitchn |

The funny thing is, if you love an piece of art so much that you want to copy it and put it on your wall, odds are it will come out much different than the original and will be truly and uniquely yours. 10 Fine Artists We'd Like to DIY | Apartment Therapy Boston |

OR - you can cut the pointy parts off of the leaves, clean it, throw it in the steamer for 45 minutes and dip the end leaves in garlic butter. Easy. My favorite meal. How To Prepare an Artichoke Home Hacks | Apartment Therapy The Kitchn |

About ten years ago, I lived in a cheap apartment in a not so nice part of Harlem. I caught two junkies trying to break into my apartment with a butter knife. I will always lock my door. Your Front Door: Locked or Unlocked? Survey | Apartment Therapy DC |

I think this is a fantastic idea for a little kid, but I could never do it. I like a bed to be as high off of the floor as possible. That being said, that gypsy-ish room would be a really cute idea for a teenager ... But maybe with a platform underneath it. Back to Basics: Beds on the Floor | Apartment Therapy DC |

This is my boyfriend's patented companies-coming-over dip/spread. We've served it with bagels, with thin toast, with crackers, everything. And it's always the first thing that's gone.

No basting here, either. We also use the Alton Brown recipe. Last year, our first Thanksgiving dinner, we actually had the laptop out while dressing and making the brine. And in the morning, the fact that it just goes in the oven and you don't have to worry about basting makes my dinner so much easier!

I went to the flower district and bought a $7 tall tin pot with handles. It fits 4 umbrellas, the small space in my hallway, and looks great. $100 for an umbrella holder? Apartment Therapy Los Angeles | Round Up: 10 Umbrella Stands Under $150! |

I'm a real estate agent in NYC, and a letter of employment, excellent credit and meeting with the landlord is required, not an option. The best thing to separate you from the rest of the pack is having everything ready to go, and to be ready to rent. I can't tell you how many times I've shown the apartment, the client has loved it, went home to think it over, and when they finally get back to me, it's gone.

I eat them out of the pods, they're addictive to me. Then I usually keep the seeds and dry them a little on the windowsill and when I have enough, put them on top of indoor plant soil. They look pretty and are hard as rocks - no bugs! Apartment Therapy The Kitchn | Ingredient Spotlight: Tamarind |

I've been trying to make my own, and I think I'm getting there, but the best in NYC is at the Edison Hotel Cafe, in midtown. If I'm sick, it fixes me. I swear it's the dill, but it's better than my mom's. Apartment Therapy The Kitchn | What's the Secret to Good Matzo Ball Soup? |

I bought a littermaid electric one a few years back, and it was the worst purchase ever. The litter was always sticking and clumping, it would scare the cats ... Now I use a $5 litter box and change it every day. It takes 5 minutes, and everyone's happy. Apartment Therapy Chicago | Cat Genie: The Only Civilized Alternative? |

If you're in or around Pittsburgh, go to Hunt Stained glass. They are amazing, and can do pretty much anything. It's a lost art, and the quality of these are really stunning. Apartment Therapy Los Angeles | Faking the Funk: Adding Stained Glass to Your Windows |

I've noticed that a lot of modern design is low to the floor, be it beds, sofas, chairs, etc. I don't get it, and I really don't like it. Maybe it's the wannabe Goldilocks in me, but I want to climb into everything. So, I've always had a bed frame ... And a high bed frame. I'm also 5'9, so I like that I can sit on my bed and my feet dangle. Plus I just think it's SO MUCH MORE COMFORTABLE! Apartment Therapy San Francisco | Do You Have a Box Spring? |

Seriously, this thing is $125. Why not get something that will last used off of craigslist? I don't understand the whole Ikea obsession.
