RQinGeorgia's Profile

I use gallon-sized Ziploc bags much like the Space Bags you see on television. Depending on the trip and what I am taking, I separate clothing into like items (shirts together, pants together, etc.) or outfits. Then, I pack the bundles into the bags and press all the air out before sealing them. Besides saving space, this protects the clothing from leaking bottles or spills and keeps the suitcase very organized.

I once packed four ball gowns, four days of street clothes, stage makeup, jewelry, and two pairs of shoes into a carry on bag, and still had room for souvenirs.

Not impressed.

I like your balcony.

I love your cat. :D

Incredible use of space. I love the sense of style, even if I would want a bit more color.

I love this. I can't see a single thing I wouldn't want in my own home.

"It's a product and style round up, and it's an ongoing feature the editors/writers have been doing for some time now. Last month, it was fantasy bathrooms."

I can understand collecting many modes of a certain product, such as bookshelves or dividing screens, in order to compare them and see the pros and cons of different styles.

I can understand posting pictures of very inspirational rooms.

This is neither. It is a collection of the editor's dream-loft wish list, poorly photo-shopped together. Any sense of proportion is lost, and it becomes difficult to gauge the real effect these pieces would have together because it looks like a kindergarten collage instead of a room.

Thank you, bepsf, for reading my mind and posting it.

Very lovely.

My FAVORITE feature, however: that you posted the viewpoints for all your photographs! Thank you for doing that--it makes it so much easier to see how your apartment fits together.

English tidbit:

"Tufted Trompe L'oeil Headboard" should be "Trompe L'oeil Tufted Headboard."

The first implies that the headboard is painted on the wall, then still actually tacked and tufted. The second means the tufted headboard is completely painted.

When I first read the title, I was rather confused... :)

I would love to see the following gone in the "diet" of posts:

- Craigslist finds
- Reposts from the other sites
- Reposts from THIS site
- Weekly summaries
- "This blogger was just wondering..." posts
- Anything where the blogger calls herself "we"
