I think hanging planters look better/cleaner while serving the same purpose - these look kind of scary. I couldn't sit at that table - I'd be too paranoid that a big clump of wet moss would plop into my iced tea,

This photo is likely fake/staged... but people like this do exist.

My father, for example, has a closet that looks almost exactly like this one! And yes, he has a million dress shirts and slacks. He also has legitimate obsessive compulsive disorder.

You should see his pantry!

I became a constant re-decorator at home after working at an Anthropologie store - they put A TON of effort into their displays and arrangements, and I felt like every new iteration was the best! A work of art! But within a few weeks they'd dismantle it and start over. At first I was dismayed, but soon started to like the idea of drastic change within the same space. It kept the environment very refreshed.

I found an old window frame in an alley on my walk home one afternoon, took it home, cleaned it, then went to my local mirror shop and had them cut eight panes for me. Then I used mirror adhesive to glue the mirrors on top of the old windowpane glass. Lastly I secured it to my wall using a system of heavy duty anchors. It looks like I spent a fortune on it at Pottery Barn!

As an American married to a Swede, who lived in Sweden, let me confirm that sandwich cakes are f-ing disgusting.

I love my husband and his country! I love seafood! But these are absolutely an abomination to my American palate. I can't help it. It's a bunch of ice-cold unflavored seafood pasted onto white bread with mayonnaise. Yes, imagine the glue needed to hold all this together.
