I just moved out of a cute little house that had the WORST landlord/management company I've ever dealt with. I don't know if there are any rules I could have followed to avoid these types, but I do know that I had a bad gut-feeling about it as I was signing my lease... I guess the rule is don't ignore that feeling!

Our kitchen cabinets and the trim in the kitchen is an awful french-vanilla color. We thought going with a complimentary gray with some blue in it would make them look whiter, but it just made them look even yellower, duh. So we went with the vanilla color - walls, trim, ceiling, everything is painted the same color in a flat finish. It works surprisingly well! I guess it just kind of makes it "go away".

Wait.

Are we talking about covering up the little box that you use to change the temperature? I mean the solution is really lovely, but are we doing this now?

I think I could live with the tiny little box.

I used to let Burger sleep in the bed with me and on the couch and everything, but when he started shedding, I thought maybe I should bring the no-furniture policy back.

I was amazed at how much better his behavior was as soon as the rule went into effect, it seemed somehow like he needed that extra authority from me. So after shedding season, the rule stayed.

Yeah a wet pot full of hose seems icky, and a great place for a big spider to make a home.

How funny,

Here I came in to profess my secret dislike of all things Jonathan Adler, thinking I would be crucified. Turns out I'm not the only one.

Dude bugs me.

I'm pretty sure that just old-fashioned recycling of that aluminum frame would have been "greener" than adding a bunch of leather to it. The description on the site doesn't say how the leather was made, but I think it's kind of a yucky chemical mess.

I've found that one person can pretty comfortably sleep on one of the floor cushions from Urban Outfitters, two would do, they roll up for storage but aren't exactly tiny.

I think this is also a cool idea to hide a dog kennel, just leave one side open...

That's exactly what I was going to say! I love that photo, and the design of the chairs reminded me.

Bravo.

Hey, I'm from KC too!

It's good to see a glimpse of home while living here in NY, and Kansas City is so proud of its arts!
