How did you find Rust-Oleum Countertop paint for $30? I've seen it in Lowe's and Home Depot for $250.

Pack everything in clear bins labeled with what room they go in. It's so much easier to know what's in each box and they stack well. You can get them at places like Home Depot and Target.

My husband and I moved into our first home on Saturday and the basement looks exactly like this! Our bar is the same and we also have the same trophy case next to the bar and behind the bar.

I can't wait to see the results!

I always stick a bamboo skewer out of the pot to leave room for the air to escape.

I saw the Macy's Chloe sofa 2 weekends ago and it was very comfortable. It comes in a variety of fabrics and colors but they only display a few online. We will probably purchase it once we get a closing date on our house. It is currently $899 but when it's on sale, it's $699.

It's a great website as well... a couple from Richmond chronicles their renovation projects, gives design advice, and how to do a lot of diy projects around the home.

We registered for Lenox's Pearl Innocence and got almost all of the pieces. I wanted something that would last us for years and that didn't look too trendy.

Our everyday china is Mikasa's Italian Countryside which is casual but has detailing that could also be used as our "fancy" china if needed.

Apartment Therapy San Francisco | Good Questions: What Color Walls with Green Sink?
5/14/09 1:25 PM

I have the same exact tiles in my bathroom. I would love to change a lot but it is a rental apartment. I also have an oak vanity with an ivory colored laminate countertop. I painted the walls a darker brown and have beige and dark brown towels and a beige floor to ceiling shower curtain that has some texture on it. I also purchased chrome accessories which help give it a little sparkle. I played with the beige/brown tones with white and chrome accents and it looks really cozy in there.

I think this house is lovely as is. The only things I would change would be the landscaping, color of the shutters, get some window boxes, and the lighting. Check out some episodes of Curb Appeal. The houses look incredible when they only change those things.

Keep the brick and add a mantle. Put some artwork, pictures, vases, or candles, etc on top of the mantle.

I use chip clips with a magnet on the back and put recipes on my fridge so they don't get food and liquid on them while I cook.

I love how food looks on white plates. You can actually focus on the food. I absolutely love the color brown but would never buy brown plates... Food would look horrible on it.
