This is the nicest co-living decorating I've ever seen! Kudos, truly inspiring that multiple people can share a space in good taste and respect to such lovely elements.

Thanks for sharing!

Anyone have a good suggestion for buying succulents in bulk? Or possibly a succulent/terrarium designer that wont break the bank?

We're looking to outfit our wedding with nothing but!

Thanks!

I recommend the Ace hotel in Portland (is the one in PS even open yet?!?) It was quite the feast for the eyes! Such great little details everywhere you turn - and the restaurant next door is TO DIE FOR (see: Clyde Commons)

Definitely a Banksy copy cat. His work is far more detailed with complicated stencil work.

But it's still nice.....

Urban Outfitters had several of these types of pillows the last time I was browsing. They also have flat sheets and curtains in similar colors/style that you could make your own pillows from.

Speaking of hide - anyone have a good suggestion on how to clean? The broom works well, but my white spots are looking a little dirty (tried using a sponge with soapy water, but found that too much rubbing pulls the hair out)

If you have a good method I'd love to hear it!

Thanks!

Since when did this site become so critical on looks (of the human form)? Let's stay focused on what this is really about.

I was just muttering last night about the ill-design of the dish soap cap. It was so clogged and then I ended up breaking it off by mistake - Now I am destine for over pouring for the remainder of my soap. Oye!

Haven't used my toilet cleaner yet, hopefully we wont have any mechanical issues there. I'm worried the odd shape will lend to dropping it into the toilet.

I was going to agree with the creepy - but they have the snake skin option in an emerald green that might just be amazing!

How large in diameter do you need your stool? I have two and would be willing to sell you one! It's laqured black but would refinish nicely. Contact me via my website if interested.

I have a terribly drafty plastic slat window in my shower - anyone know how to calm the cold breeze during this time of year as a renter (accepting suggestions outside of boarding up the window. haha)

Thanks!!

I've had one of these for awhile now! He is precious, although for some reason has decided to do some "bunny-isms" at 3am. Thank goodness for the volume dial!

Unbeknown to me...I was bitten by one of these little black babies a few weeks ago. And even though I thought for sure I would die or my leg would fall off - looking down at the baseball sized welt on my leg - I was relieved to find out that 1 week of gnarly steroid/antibiotic pills (4 times a day mind you!) would be the cure.....I guess if you could call the yet to fade "bruise mark" on my leg a cure....I digress, the rumor of insta-death upon bite is untrue.

But don't second guess yourself if you "think" it might be a bad bite, just go and risk embarrassment at your Dr. Office. Trust me.

Hilarious! I sat in these very pods this weekend and was thinking what a beautiful design solution to seating and booth privacy.

Not to mention it's the only bar I've found in the states with that many Ozzy beers on tap! Loved it!!!

Same problem!

I had a piece of .5''x1'' wood (left over from making my own canvas frames) that fits perfectly into the window track, it's the best way I've found without drawing notice to the problem. (especially if you take the extra effort to paint the same color as your window moldings)

Go get a piece or two cut at Home Depot (I suggest 2 seeing we all like our windows open at different heights at different times of the day)

I painted mine as well! I nearly stole this off the walls of one of the mock-up living rooms when I first saw it. They hadn't started selling them yet and it was really hard to wait until they did.

An unusual choice for IKEA, but well played and appreciated.

Amazing what simple choices and bold colors can do to that kitchen renovation. This house is absolutely a gem, I live down the street from it and have always wondered what it was like on the inside.

Such a treat! Thank you.
