I love the sparkly letters! I've been wanting to do something similar but I'm afraid of it looking too home-made. This came out so nicely.....would you mind sharing more info on that project? My Room: OliviaLos Angeles, CA | Apartment Therapy Ohdeedoh |

or you could just order this for $4.99. they're really cute - my mom says that she had the same exact valentines in the early 60's. Apartment Therapy ohdeedoh | Vintage Valentine Cards |

i used the 3M command series sticky tab things for these exact cards (different print though). they stayed put for a good 3 years and came off with absolutely no damage. i used one sticky on the back upper left corner and one on the back bottom right corner.

This is exactly what I wanted when we got a new dining table for our apt. When I looked at it in the store though, it became clear that it really wouldn't work. It was all scratched up - and not like the distressed, casual stainless steel tables that they have in restaurants. It looked really bad. It is also really narrow. I do think it would make a fine desk though. I was really bummed about it because I loved the look of it in the catalog. We ended up getting the melltorp table. It has been great (and its only $70) Apartment Therapy Chicago | Good Questions: Feedback on Stainless Steel IKEA Table? |

hekela9 - in general the kids use it, but sometimes we mix it up, and it's fine. very sturdy and plenty deep (my husband is 6'3'' and i'm 5'8'' and we both feel comfortable on it) - the only thing i don't like about it is the lack of back support :-) the pine looks really nice with the white table. just to be clear, i'm referring to the norden bench. honestly, my dining area is my favorite part of our apt. before we bought the new ikea stuff i tried not to look at the dining area. now it's so clean and peaceful - can't say enough good things about it.

We bought the meltorp dining table about 4 weeks ago. We love it! The legs are metal but I actually had to go over and look because I hadn't really noticed. It fits well in our small dining space, it's really easy to clean and very sturdy - not wobbly at all. I'm pretty happy with the quality, I would say it's a great value at $69.99. After 4 weeks my 3 kids haven't damaged it at all, so that's good :-) It's on the long and skinny side, but once again, perfect for a small dining area. We bought ikea's pine bench for one side (the kids) and the pine bent wood chairs for the other side. I'm very happy with the results so far. If I have to buy another one in a year, at that price, it's worth it. Apartment Therapy Chicago | IKEA 2009 Catalog: 10 Best New Items |

we did this with our bed using the $200 memory foam mattress topper from costco. maybe not as great as a new mattress, but pretty close and so much cheaper. Apartment Therapy Los Angeles | Fixing a Sagging Mattress With Memory Foam |
