so if taxidermy is a "craze" even though it's been used in interior decorating for centuries, what pray tell is Stainless Steel and Granite? If it's not your thing, it's not your thing but referring to it as a "craze" or "trend" is well just Craze-y. 39\" Faux Deer Head |

He's about as charismatic as a cup of green tea. Whats so sad about these design competition shows, most competition reality shows for that matter, is that the show eventually becomes about the Host / Judges not about the competitors or the design at hand.

Are the cats indoor only? If not I would look at outside factors that she may be allergic to instead of the cats themselves i.e... weeds/ pollen/grass that the cats may roll in while outside? Have there been changes in flea powders (think Jan Brady) / flea collars / even foods or treats the cats may be eating that are different? My heart goes out to her, we rescued an English Bulldog that made me ridiculously sick the first year we had him...Rather than give him up I changed his diet, changed his treats, bathing routine, flea treatments, EVERYTHING before finally clearing up whatever it was about him that was making me sick... we had him another 10 years w/o a single flareup.

OMG! to all the contact paper haters... the reality is it's an IKEA desk and Shelving unit.. the contact paper may very well outlive both pieces of furniture... besides that when the contact paper gets shabby replace it...

If you are sick of MCM, books for display, cow hide rugs, "Keep Calm" posters, spray painted items, DIY projects or anything else that everyone has whined about then don't use them! I personally want to hurl everytime I hear that a kitchen has to have SS appliances and Granite countertops and you know what? neither of my kitchens have them.For once try a little imagination and decorate your home with things that YOU like and that YOU think are comfortable, you have to live with it not anyone else.

how is anything a knockoff or fake? it's an original and real to the person who created / made it. Classic style over name brand any day. Should I Be Ashamed of My Furniture Knockoffs? |

We are in the process of relocating from Brooklyn to Chicago and I just signed a lease last week on a Chicago apartment. I have used Craigslist exclusively in finding apartments in San Francisco, West Hollywood, Brooklyn and now Chicago. There's alot of crap out there that you may have to weed through but the gems are there for the finding. Apartment Therapy Los Angeles | How to: Land That Perfect Apartment: Three Easy Steps |

The white wire chairs in the top photo, I think they used to be called Italian Dining Chairs? They used to be incredibly popular and very easy to find.They stack for storage and were powdercoated so they didn't get hot if sitting in the sun. I haven't seen them available for years. Anyone know of a current source? Apartment Therapy Chicago | Courtyard Gardens Around the World |

to the posters bashing Ikea or claiming that the quote does not pertain to them.. Where do you buy your clothes? Old Navy, Gap, Banana Republic, H&M, Uniqlo, Topshop, Club Monaco, J Crew? These are all the fashion equivalent to Ikea. Apartment Therapy New York | Discuss: Are You Generation Ikea? |
