What is the tan case with the red spine that is featured in all of those photos?

I really love that one, but I can't seem to find it.

So I still come to this post and start drooling over that photograph.

I'd really like to know what pie that is up there? Sources, anyone? Any guesses?

I'm starving for that pie over here.

If you're in a pinch and do not have something to set your large chunky candles on, they're good for that - catches the wax and keeps the top of your table clean while providing a mirror like reflection.

I would make a pressed turkey, bacon, spinach, apple and fontina cheese sandwhich with herbed mayo on ciabatta bread . I've never made that before but it sounds like it would be delicious....

As a follow up...

How interesting to read through all of the comments and watch it move from one interesting topic to another all revolving around the scent of our homes and how it can affect our environment.

I found it interesting how it started to revolve around green ways to cover up smells in the bathroom most of all - that and bodily fumes in general.

I can tell you that for the past few days my windows have been open and the fresh air has been doing an amazing job of rejuvenating my surroundings - even more so after it rained, how fantastic.

My concern was more from a thought while perusing the grocery store - seeing so many air fresheners on the shelf with the latest trend being the ones that plug in and provide extra outlets / night lights / alternating scents / etc. I just thought that there was no way it could be good for energy consumption and why that would look like if most average households had those plugged in. At least one in every room of all these McMansions that become so popular - it was sort of terrifying.

While back at home, I did happen upon some lavender that had recently died due to my lack in providing sufficient water - lemons to lemonade, I placed it in the windows to dry out and as the wind blows through you get these magical moments of natural beauty that just can't be recreated with chemicals and electrical outlets - then again, without electricity - how could I be here reading and typing this...


Apartment Therapy - Good Questions: Odorize or Disconnect?

What fantastic suggestions!

Thanks everyone to whom responded and thanks even more to the AT Green team for the research factor; Awesome.

I think I'll look for a healthy version of the scent sticks to place in an open window for the future - especially since the weather has been so pleasent as of late. I thought about incense, but aren't those just as bad as lighting candles for the smoke factor - couldn't that possibly harm the air quality as well?

I just wanted to send a shout out to the Caldrea line of products. I just recently discovered them and love all of them. I'm not afraid of them having chemicals that might get in to my food or on my counter top or even in my clothes.

I strongly suggest that if you haven't given them a try, do.

Good stuff.


Apartment Therapy - Kitchen Keeping:What Brand of Dish Soap Do You Use?
9/25/07 9:18 AM

You know, I saw this the last time I was on a plane to Miami. I also noticed the other versions (one was a bedside table!) I was more okay with this one rather than having a litter box right next to my bed or as a side table next to the couch.

I don't care what kind of litter you use, you'll smell it if it's right under your nose.

I think that they are over all funny in general, but having it in the bathroom makes more sense than as a night stand. haha.

Apartment Therapy - Good Questions: How Should I Create an Inspiration Board?
9/25/07 8:46 AM

Staying on topic;

I hate push pin holes - I love magnets.

I've used this interesting idea in conjuction with the magnets; You can purchase magnetic paint at your hardware store (it's been mentioned somewhere here on AT before) you can paint a square (or the entire wall if you like) and then paint over it with regular paint so it's not black, it will still let you put magnets on the wall.

Taking it a step further, this trick from Martha Stewart Living will allow you to make your own color of chalk board paint - super cool. You can then have a magnet inspiration wall that you could put inspiration on and be able to write notes related to the inspiration near it - all taylored to your own creative color shceme.

Just a thought. Beautiful space by the way.
