I have two of these as bed reading lamps for my two boys. It's very cute in their room, and provides very nice, bright light for reading on the bed. Hope the LED light never breaks :)

@MarvelousK - that's awesome!

Any idea how much it would cost to re-upholster a chair like #3?

Wood stairs, especially the ones made with the new, extra glossy, engineered wood, could be very slippery. But they look so much prettier than the carpet! In our last place, we installed non-slip tape that we got online. It's clear and textured and we just put it near the edge of each stair. It was close to invisible, but definitely increased the friction.

I can't figure out a good way to story my childhood teddy bear either. Right now he's lying on a shelf in the closet and getting dusty. But I can't bring myself to put him in a box, because it seems like putting him in a coffin... And the framed mouse reminds me of framed butterflies, definitely creepy.

Green is my absolute favorite color for both clothes and home decor, but even I think this is too much and clashes.

Warning with anyone with kids - the kids love to take those S-hooks off, play with them, leave them around, loose them, hide them, etc. Basically, those hooks will never be where they are needed :)

I had a 5x6 area run in the kitchen to protect the new hardwood floors. The rug was a pain to keep clean. I had to vacuum the rug and then go around the rug on the bare floor using an attachment. Stains accumulated quickly. It was too big to wash and dry easily, and it never looked as nice after the first wash. I ended up having to replace the rug about every six months.

So I say no to rugs in the kitchen! And on the related note, no to rugs under the dining table!
