I want to live here. I wouldn't change a thing. So relaxing. So inviting. Nothing is heavy-handed...very subtle without being dull.

I LOVE this home! So many unexpected pairings that magically work. Those green lamps in the bedroom ... I WANT.

I don't know. I just don't like fake things. I guess it's kind of in the cute category. It's done well, nice execution ... I just question the whole idea of it.

I absolutely love your home! I like that I don't recognize every single piece of furniture. And I love the "bedroom" you've created - I'm very inspired! The lace curtain in the kitchen reminds me of my mother - we always had a lace curtain tacked up somewhere in every place we lived. Thanks for sharing!

Ditto comment by Pixie. I can't wait until this fad is over.

I'd rather just sit in one of the chairs. It's an interesting idea but it doesn't work for me.

Hi Shawn,
To answer your questions...I collect water in the kitchen while waiting for the water to get hot when doing dishes and that is what I use to boil pasta, rinse food, etc. I live in an older apartment and it takes about two gallons before the water gets hot.

I use the water I collect in the kitchen for boiling pasta, washing veggies/fruit, rinsing dishes, and watering. plants.

I live in Atlanta and my husband and I have been keeping a bucket in my bathroom and kitchen for a while now and it's amazing how much water we collect. We also follow the if-it's-yellow-let-it-mellow rule (except when we have company).

I ADORE your home! Nothing is forced or too trendy. It feels welcoming, comfortable, and balanced. So, so lovely...

You can buy Dr. Bronner's in bulk (most stores carry the gallon size) and use a different bottle/pump.
