Another moral to this story is to make sure you get a fan with a down rod. Our house came with a fan in the master bedroom and is set flush in combination with a slanted ceiling! It's a phenomenon - it's attached to the ceiling and it spins but the lack of air between it and the ceiling means it has ZERO effect.

In preparation for the Toronto heat wave, I've bought a new fan and a down rod to fix the old one :)


How to Find the Right Size Ceiling Fan for Every Room

Paint question!! I have a very similar "before" kitchen and desperately need a quick fix before I can gut the whole thing, bring down a wall and make my dreams come true! What kind of paint would you use on a formica/laminate sort of cabinet and on a varnished wood? Was there a lot of sanding involved? That terrifies me most...

This is great! For the first time, I have the right space to start a little herb garden (albeit on my balcony, in planters..). I live in Toronto and the weather's been really inconsistent so that hasn't helped... but my little seeds seem to be sprouting nonetheless!
Does anyone have advice on how to properly assemble a garden in a planter from the bottom up?
