I just cleaned up 2 vintage suitcases that I swear to you could knock out an entire subway cart unconscious if you opened them up. I used just about everything to get rid of the smells and stains and you know what worked the best? Sunlight. 5 Ways To De-Funk Musty Furniture |

What kills me about bathroom renos are the costs of the vanity bases. I couldn't even wrap my head around it when we did a half bath reno in ours. $500 for what? A dresser? You could buy a jigsaw and a dresser and do a better job for the prices of some of them. 5 Places To Skimp On Your Bathroom Reno |

I just spent the long weekend cleaning our home and am still not done. Shampooing and steam cleaning rugs and carpets. Floors. Dusting. Attacking things in bathrooms that you wonder how you missed.

This would be a good idea in a modern condo that wanted to have more privacy if they were looking directly into another unit. If you go to her blog the original idea has an open window on top of the privacy screen windows so it balances out the "look". I think that essentially is what's missing here. The project itself is well done, just not necessarily the best for the space. DIY Privacy Windows Sweet Peach |

My toddler would destroy that 'art' in 5 seconds with their hands. And I wouldn't even begin to find the time in the day to be able to do that. Nice idea for a party but for everyday, I'm lucky if I get the grilled cheese off the stove before it burns. DIY Kids' Plate Oh Happy Day |

My friend's treehouse. I always wanted one as a kid. His family lived on a giant acre estate that backed onto a river and we used to catch crayfish in it all the time. What Impressed You About Other Homes As a Kid? |

Oh that cabinet is dreamy but I would avoid marble in the bathroom like the plague. We had it in our old one and between the marble only cleaning solutions, you should see how it looked after 1 year of water falling on it. Never again. Regina's Lab-Like Loo Dream Bathroom Inspiration |
