@renovationconfusion that is amazing! @SherryBinNH I was thinking about that, the Wally wall pockets just seemed too expensive, but West Elm seems to carry something similar now. @weatherman this is a great idea, have to measure and see if it would work since there is a ledge but if the window box can be secured to it then maybe! @talby that is genius and gives me some ideas! To all who mentioned building something, I truly wish I had the time, patience and/or space for a project like that (or any project for that matter lol!) but maybe if someone wants to help me build some prototypes, we could start a kickstarter fund!

Wow! Less than a year later, on the site all the time and I missed my own question?! Darn! Now let me read what everyone has to say :-) No-Drill Flower Box Ideas? Good Questions Flag this comment	4/8/13 12:55 AM
@roseisred try frozen mango! Works great for thickening and no banana taste ;-) Recipe: Superpower Morning Smoothie Recipes from The Kitchn Flag this comment	1/31/13 12:31 PM
GIR just invented these. Very few people own them yet as they are just now shipping them out via Kickstarter. The Ultimate Spatula from GIR: Get It Right Product Review Flag this comment	11/19/12 1:53 PM
I'd be willing to re-pot my plants but I'm wondering, is it possible that the eggs could be in the soil - like in the bag of soil I have? How To Get Rid Of House Plant Gnats? Good Questions Flag this comment	11/11/12 8:52 AM

There are no words - it's just perfect! Nick and Rachel's Creative Warehouse Loft Green Tour from the Archives Flag this comment	9/21/11 5:41 PM
Wow, some of you are so harsh! I thought the space was lovely. It's airy and uncluttered with carefully chosen, very personal tchotchkes (I don't know that I could ever whittle my way down to so few, too much sentiment on my end, but I admire it!) She showed us her home and made the tour feel very welcoming like she was offering us a cup of tea with the view. How could you not love the silliness of Veronica sticking her head out from behind the door? She has an accessible and a real, "living" apartment. We're all of course, entitled to our opinions, but from what I can gather after many years of following this website, the views of AT are to show many different, visually appealing examples, alongside truly functional aspects of life in smaller living quarters. They share their ideas and their finds in very a humble, "un-snooty" way, always asking for their readers opinions, which I find very refreshing! We don't have to love or agree with every article written, we don't have to love every house tour, but it seems to me that AT brings an ease to the anxiety of creating a warmth with practicality to our homes. Veronica's tour is a breath of fresh air. It can take a person a long time to acquire what is perfection for them in terms of design and function. I felt that she shared (via AT), after years in the making, what she can now truly call home. And isn't that what we're all here to achieve?

What is the name of that Crate and Barrel shelf unit? It's EXACTLY what we are looking for! (I don't see it on the website, of course lol) Veronica's Light, Bright & Cheery Corner of the Sky House Tour Flag this comment	3/29/11 11:35 PM
Has anyone tried the sleeper sofa from Bob's Discount Furniture? The name makes me think twice, but it looks decent, and it's half the price of Crate & Barrel's twin sleeper sofas (I have a maximum size limit of 63") Any comments?
