I know a very wealthy guy who, when remodeling his house, installed a large urinal (the kind that is built into the wall, from just-above waist-level to the floor). When he had female guests over, he put a large fake potted plant in its place. (He had a regular toilet in another part of his Very Large bathroom.)

I love magazines. I tried to cut back at one point, but then ended up buying them anyways at the supermarket, so at least this is cheaper? I love nothing more than to lay in bed weekend mornings and read magazines. And, for the ones I do toss, I try to use them for collages/postcards and to make magnets, etc, before I recycle them. Conde Nast Traveler, Gourmet, Saveur, Domino, Lucky, Allure, Elle, Los Angeles Magazine, Good, Harper's Bazaar, Time.. ..do alumni magazines count too? And journals that are part of membership fees to professional organizations. I'm just going to stop counting now...

I have to say, I like the Ralph Lauren ones also - not sure which line, but I picked them up at Bloomingdale's when I had a gift certificate. I've had them for six months now, and they're still as plush and absorbent as ever, and the color has stayed true. I had the Thomas O'Brien ones from Target, and while those were nice - they faded so quickly and at different rates (even though I always washed them together) that after a couple of months, it looked like I had bought completely different towel sets.

They used to be roughly by subject area (books related to school, foreign-language, hard-cover fiction, hard-cover nonfiction, cookbooks) only, then within each area I ended up organizing them by color, because I got tired of how jumbled everything looks. I didn't think I'd like it (I do generally like them alphabetically), but my bookshelves do look a little more streamlined. I've staggered and interspersed books with other items so it doesn't look *too obvious. Apartment Therapy San Francisco \| SF Survey: How Do You Arrange Your Books? Flag this comment	2/26/08 5:43 PM
While I do like Shabby Chic, I ended up not doing my entire apartment that way because it was just a little too much. But, I did love the beds - more specifically, the sheets.. luckily, the Shabby Chic at Target line has wonderfully soft sheets for a fraction of the price. I've mixed and matched several sets (keeping within the same color scheme), and my bed looks great, I have to say.
