A floating vanity would have been the way to go here. Plenty of storage, just not resting on legs on the floor. Easier to clean the bathroom floor, too. Modern Bathroom Inspiration: Hotel Ändra |

This is an iconic design feature I've never really warmed up to. Looks like furniture on a bunch of paperclips. Somehow the balance just seems off to me. Wire Leg Furniture: Industrial Skinny |

I am sure there are a million solutions to this problem, but does anyone have a good way of storing PIN numbers and security passcodes in a phone where they can't be easily identified as such? 10 Snapshots You Should Keep in Your Phone's Photo Album |

Big favor to ask AT house tour posters: please show photos that give some indication of how the space is being used, size of rooms, etc. Love the personal art collections, kids' cute drawings, cool and stylish, fun objects and tchotchkes, but I need help in the space planning department, and real life examples work best.

Gorgeous apartment, clean, uncluttered, almost minimalist, and yet warm and welcoming. Looking at this made me feel good. Great decor - and I would also love to know the source of the bedding. Fran's Beautiful Structure Small Cool Contest |

I have been doing the twin duvet thing for years, ever since seeing the house of a European friend of mine and noting the practice. This has so many benefits, quite aside from tugging and not sharing: if your dog/cat/child has an accident you end of with a much easier washing job; it is way easier to get a twin duvet into a twin duvet cover than it is with a queen or king; it is way easier to deal with twin duvet covers in a standard washing machine. Also, duvet covers come in such a wide range of styles and colours, you can change the look of your bedroom more often. Scandinavian Style: Two Duvets on One Bed |

I tried this recipe exactly as written. It came out with a rather watery sauce--nice flavour but watery nonetheless. I would decrease the amount of wine and perhaps put in a tablespoon or two of hoisin or black bean sauce. Recipe: Ginger and Cilantro Baked Tilapia |

Am I missing something? I thought with the re-vamp of the web site we would be able to print recipes easily. Can't seem to find this function. Recipe sounds great and I look forward to trying it. Recipe: Ginger and Cilantro Baked Tilapia |

I think the hardware was a great choice -- gives the piece a sense of an Asian antique. Beautiful makeover. Before & After: Trashed Hutch Turned Vanity Dresser Sweet Pickins |

I have asked the same question as @VIEARCAL and got a couple of useful suggestions. It's important to have some kind of pull-out for a keyboard, and the Crate & Barrel desk mentioned above comes in a 48" version, 22 inches deep. I'm looking for something with lots of empty space underneath, so the only disadvantage of that desk is the crossed leg supports. Otherwise it would fit the bill. High & Low: Home Office Furniture |

Can anyone recommend a basic desk with a keyboard pullout that looks decent and doesn't take up too much space? Thanks! High & Low: Home Office Furniture |
