Pi makes a very good point about the definition of 'knockoff'. The other thing to keep in mind that one's tastes do change over a lifetime. I'm at retirement age and I like to think that I won't need to replace the more expensive pieces of furniture that I have now, but I can't guarantee it.

Wonderful space, although I wish there were photos of the kitchen as well. The bedspread looks like it's covered with Turkish evil eyes though :) Sean's MCM in California Small Cool Contest |

I am a terrible sleeper. I have trouble falling asleep and then I wake up several times during the night. We've been in our house 20+ years, and our house has been painted a few times. Right now, it's a very pale yellow (like a straw colour) and the duvet colour is the same with a blue pattern on it. But regardless of colour, what helps me sleep is a sleep mask and ear plug :) Which Wall Color Gives the Best Sleep? The Daily Mail |

I love using Airbnb or VRBO. Those are my go to sites when we travel. If I'm just going to be away for a night, then I would aim for a hotel, but otherwise, I like staying in something more personal. There's so much variety out there, it's wonderful. Home Away from Home: The New Way To Travel |

It's a hanger, nothing more. You find hangers that you like and you use them. I really hope I never have enough time to decorate my hangers. DIY Ideas:Closet Hangers with Panache |

I assume you're talking about the CB2 one - if you click on the link and you're in Canada (like I am), it's even more expensive - it's $599! That's the one I like as well. Small Space Solution: Double Duty Storage Ottomans & Benches |

We carried home 2 Turkish carpets from Istanbul. Neither were overly large, but the store packed them into what looked like a couple of gym bags. That wasn't all that long ago, but it was at a time when passengers weren't charged for baggage to the degree that they are now. We also had a didgeridoo shipped back from Australia. We bought that in a gallery and it was fairly pricey, but the cost of shipping was really inexpensive. How to Get Purchases Home from Vacation |

Calgary has a very sunny climate, so I'm thinking that it was the time of day that the pictures were taken. Good job, Tara - looks great! Tara's Special Things Small Cool Contest |

Some beautiful kitchens! Our house is 100+ years old and was originally very small. It's still small, but an addition was put on the back at some point in the past. One of the walls in the kitchen is the original exterior back wall, and it's exposed brick. I love the character that it adds to the kitchen.

I think it's wonderful! And I firmly believe that not every piece of MCM furniture can or should be saved. Before & After: An Art Deco Makeover Akicsihaz |

Definitely agree about the photos. I've seen photos of kitchens where there are dirty dishes in the sink, on the counter, etc. Just doesn't look good. Five Things I Learned About Real Estate From Reality TV |
