I picked up a 3 piece set (large 6 drawer w/mirror, nightstand and tall 5 drawer) for $200 in excellent condition. 1 owner. The lady babied them but was moving out to smaller apt. I carefully painted the 6 drawer a hot pink (B. Moore) and it looks SHARP!!

I don't have a pic of it upright (don't know why) but you get the idea.

@Duane Hill- "..home to many..", more like Boystown part 2: The takeover.

White Attic is overrated and pricey $$$$.

Scout is nice but the owner could use some prozac or a shit load of Tequila.

I live in a cluttered Chicago bungalow, with a wife, 2 kids and a Maltese that won't stop following me. I would rub Hillary Clinton's sore cankels and let Sarah Palin read bedtime stories to me for a year - just to have this home.

People, cluttered and messy is not for everyone. I spend day in and day out moving stuff around or out of the house and it never seems to stay clutter free. It's driving me crazy!

Whatever you do, do not buy the Herman Miller Aeron chair. We have them at work and can't seem to find a person that thinks they are comfortable.

Oh.. my duaughter is a 9 year old nerdy/girlie girl and my son is a 2 year old truck throwing, bat swinging, jock like beast...ha. Their rooms are decorated accordingly.

Their room's look like my daughter and son's room. They both have the same orange pendant. They love them.

Keep in mind that these rooms were probably cleaned for the photo shoot. I doubt they are "un-child like".

We have the Miller Aeron chair at work. Damn they suck! They are good for sitting 30 - 45 minutes tops. If you sit more than that, you ass will be on fire. Our company takes 5 full floors in a Chicago DT skyscraper x 1000 + employees = the company got robbed!

@ElectricKatie - the hubby is a Hedgefund manager and she also has her own business going. I doubt they do the cleaning.

I like the fact that even with all the doh, she still bought chairs from Target.

She is having fun and the house is beautiful. Big ups to her.

@MonsterGirl - It's in East Rogers Park, Chase ave. (maybe Estes). I live in that hood. To be honest with you, it does not stick out crazy. I think the picture makes it look brighter than it is. It's not something that is blaring at all and the nobody in the neighborhood really minds it.

If all those posters and pictures were in a gay guys home, all of you would be saying "wow, great artwork". You can deny it all you want.

She has a good eye and the show is fun but that voice! Sometimes I can't wait till it finishes just so I don't here her talk anymore. Talk about a love/hate relationship.
