I have an AWESOME home office (I work from home), but spend no more than 10 minutes in it at a time because I just prefer working at the kitchen table or on the couch. Anyway, I always feel guilty using up a whole room on an office that gets no real use. What Is Your Design Confession? |

My grandparents used to have napkins like these in their restauran, it was considered a very "shi-shi" place, but they stopped using them YEARS ago! They were cream and coral, and I never once witnessed anyone ever use them. Buttonhole Napkins: Have You Ever Heard Of Such A Thing? The Purl Bee |

At least you lock your doors; I am the absolute WORST when it comes to home security! Even when I lived on the potentially dangerous canals in Venice Beach I had this habit. How I solved it? I haven't! The good news is that I now live on a desolate col-a-sac in a teeny tiny town in North Carolina... What's Your Bad Habit at Home? |

I work from home, so dressing up with full make up and hair done is a must, otherwise I would wear "comfortable" clothes all the time. If I am cleaning the house that is a different story- I go duds all the way! How Hot Do You Look At Home? |

I recently had the exact same thing happen to me! I bought a new couch, and that made me get an itch to change the palette of our living room. I chose to sand and re-stain my coffee table and side tables because those are the high ticket items I didn't want to replace. Then I did a little rearranging of chairs (they went from office to living room), and re-upholstered them. I then bought a new area rug and curtains to compliment the chairs... it wasn't something that happened overnight, and it was not cheap... but it was totally worth it. It's still a work in progress!

Not a fan of hung plates, but plates that are hung anywhere that food is not consumed (ie Bedroom, living room, etc) drives me NUTS! What's Your Design Pet Peeve? |

My Old bedroom had the exact same problem, I did a curtain the same color as the walls, with a headboard. I didn't try to hide the fact that there was a window behind it, however the window was not exactly centered with the bed, so I made the illusion that it was, by hanging a rod the length of the bed (hard to explain, see: http://gallery.apartmenttherapy.com/photo/la-haleyforgehousetour-bethanynauert/item/267717) I thought it work well for us.

oh, and how could I forget Smith's house? He was an only child whose whole house was white, and in their living room they had a basketball court... oh, and they also had books and booooks of naked people. (his dad was a photographer) What Impressed You About Other Homes As a Kid? |
