I live in DC in 14th Street Heights so parking is not a bad issue. We have our own private driveway, although it is not covered. My main gripe was my very new car got keyed within the first couple months of living there. I wouldn't recommend keeping a new car in the city. Otherwise, having a car is great since I drive out of the city all the time.

I had one of the orchids for 3 years (its death was my own fault). I think it bloomed 3 times too for long periods of time. They just need to be re-potted when they are resting.

Very cool, but makes me feel squeamish all over.

I went to the Target in College Park, Maryland figuring I would fare better than my usual Washington, DC location. The only item I could find was the door hooks and the sales people didn't know about it and assumed it'd come in mid month.

Ew disgusting. No roach in any form should exist in my place.

I tried to make this but alas it was very difficult to get the cardboard to curl up right and get it to be even.

Arroyo,

I have huggable hanger knock offs from overstock.com. I love them, they are so much better than those ikea wooden hangers. They take up 1/3 the space of the ikea ones in my opinion and mine have hooks on them so you can hang another hanger on them and save space.

I love the floors. Very beautiful. I feel the pain of having a bath tub in your kitchen. We have a shower stall in our hall way that is no where near the rest of the bathroom.

I have the expedit 4x4 and I love it. We use it to store our record collection and the records fit in it perfectly.

Like others have said the lack shelves tend to droop a bit down after a while. I probably wouldn't ever buy them again.

I like the Lerberg shelving units that ikea sells. They are cheap and good for small storage spaces.

Thank you everybody for your suggestions! I actually decided to go to Micheal's because of convenience (easy parking) and price.

Does anyone a good place to get just a mat board cut for a picture?

I am not very familiar with framing options and I just need a mat board cut to go around a poster that is an odd size. Any information about a good place or how much this would run me would be good. Thanks.

I love the floors, yellow-green flower pattern, and the outside design.

I love before and after posts but the majority of these items weren't hideous or in bad condition in their state. I would love to see more hideous finds or garbage finds transformed.

I remember doing laundry in college was brutal so I always ended up being super punctual about getting back to the machine or I would bring an assignment to read as I waited for my clothes to wash and dry. My rule was take it out if in the dryer, but never take out someone's wet clothes. Other people however would take your wet clothes and some people would remove your clothes and steal your time!

I wish AT would have more Etsy Scavenger posts. You guys seem to be better at sorting through the clutter than me.
