I'd put down all weather wooden floor tiles to bring in some different texture. A curtain with color, add a frame around the mirror, change the light fixture out, and put in a narrow shelving (bookcase) to the right, next to the door.

Does anyone know where I can buy the pillar candles that look like the trunk of a tree? They were everywhere last year and now I can't seem to find them at all.
The only ones I've seen are Pottery Barn's Metallic Bark Candles http://www.potterybarn.com/products/p11613/index.cfm?pkey=ccandles
I'd like them in natural brown though.

I would make a slipcover for my discontinued Ikea couch, right now it's sad and coverless..my little sewing machine can't handle sturdy fabric.

I iron my clothes every morning..I'm a terrible folder and don't have enough closet space to hang everything up. I also sew, so I'm ironing for days..

I tend to prefer dry rubs so I go with rock salt, fresh pepper, sometimes I mix it up with other spices then go for a broil. Medium rare all the way.

I'm totally lost in my studio apartment in Santa Monica, I need direction! I don't even know where to start. A consultation would save me from years of consecutive cures, seriously, I need help.

This is SUCH an amazing chair! And just the piece of grown up furniture I need to start the shedding of my college scavenger pieces.

I could chop so much on these boards and rinse so many things! I'm a chopper so I would love to chop salsa and guacamole ingredients, all my veggies for summer grilling like portabello mushrooms, onions, squashes, bell peppers. Prepping fruits and summer corn...Mmm I'm hungry now.

I would have some dowels cut down to fit the holes and paint them a color you like. Affix them to the back with screw, washer and nut. Maybe just have them come out in the front an inch.

I love the cork idea but can't think of a way to make them permanent and temporary enough, I'm interested to see if anyone has a solution.

Yelp.com gives me all the information about businesses I'm looking for in my new neighborhood, I found it 2 years ago when I had moved into a new place and it was invaluable. When I moved 2 months ago I knew I could count on it again...I sound like a commercial. But seriously it's great, you can find businesses close to you and they are all rated by users who leave comments..so I can find anything from a great carwash to cleaners to sushi bars that come highly recommended.

Oooh, I didn't catch the first time around that you bought that olive couch, I would rethink the green walls..

I love the color green you have, I think I would buy a larger simpler rug within the same color family as the one you have now, that will mellow out the room, there is a lot of texture going on with your beautiful wood floors and the rug you have now. Perhaps take away a few pillows and go for a lighter shade. Think about maybe reframing the photos into wood frames, I really like the classic look the photos have now but I think the contrast of black frames with the white mats make the wall look really punchy.
