Hi guys- I should have clarified what I meant by green. I was imagining that one could reuse pipe scraps from another project for this purpose. Apartment Therapy New York \| How To: Make a Copper Pipe Storage Rack Flag this comment	7/18/09 7:14 PM

@Blandwagon -- It's certainly more of a "Farm Tour" than a House Tour. I also photographed the living room area, and the little store, which is located in the house. The family spends most of their time in the kitchen and outside. It's definitely a different type of tour, but I think it's a lot of fun. Particularly since the outside is "decorated" with the blue animal pens, cute little signs, the chicken coop and lots of animals! It's perfect for Outdoor Month! And nice to have something a little different. Apartment Therapy New York \| House Tour: Hudson Valley Fiber Farm New York Flag this comment	6/30/09 11:04 AM
@wc-canuck I posted the best photos here, but if you look on the website for the barn--http://jewettbarn.com/index.html--the interior is painted in the strange (in my opinion) combination of pinkish red, yellow, blue, purple and green... I'd just prefer the interior to be a little less garish... but that's just my opinion and what I'd do if I had an extra $700,000 lying around! -Amy Apartment Therapy New York \| 1876 Catskills Historic Barn for Sale Flag this comment	6/30/09 10:59 AM
@Klem- It tasted fresh and delicious. I wasn't 100% pleased with the bread texture. So if I did it again, I would go with Ina's recommendation to use a brioche or make sure that I was using stale bread. Everyone at the party I took it to, loved it, and I asked for serious feedback :) Apartment Therapy The Kitchn \| Summer Pudding Flag this comment	6/26/09 10:07 PM
@ A Lady in Red I have to say that Ina's looked a lot better than mine! Apartment Therapy The Kitchn \| Summer Pudding Flag this comment	6/26/09 6:11 PM

If you guys find it, I'd love to know. It looked familiar to me too, but couldn't find it on the usual sites... Apartment Therapy New York \| Hot or Not? Bird Side Table Flag this comment	6/4/09 10:05 PM
EC- Actually a search for the designer Alex Hellum doesn't bring up anything on Apartment Therapy, Decor8 or Design Sponge. It's a little telling though that you feel like you've seen it before... Apartment Therapy New York \| Hot or Not? Bird Side Table Flag this comment	6/4/09 5:29 PM

I need a new, big wood cutting board. I want something hefty. My little cheap one isn't cutting it anymore. Apartment Therapy The Kitchn \| Kitchen Cure Survey: Do You Need Any New Gear? The Kitchen Cure Spring 2009 Flag this comment	5/1/09 12:17 PM
It might be a cliche, but after watching this film: http://www.hbo.com/docs/programs/deathfactoryfarm/index.html, I no longer eat pork (or other meat) unless I know where it comes from. Once I saw what is really happening on these factory farms, I wanted nothing to do with them--swine flu or otherwise. While swine flu does not come from eating pork, I think this is good opportunity to reassess our support of factory farms. While I can afford to eat farm-raised meat, I've actually decided to eat vegetarian as much as possible. So while you can't get swine flu from pork, for me, there's a pretty good reason to not eat it. Apartment Therapy The Kitchn \| Swine Flu Scare: Don't Stop Eating Pork!

When Scott shared his project on Design Sponge, he clarified that he asked (and received permission) to take the samples on each trip. http://www.designspongeonline.com/2009/04/diy-idea-paint-strip-wall-decoration.html Apartment Therapy Los Angeles \| The 500 Paint Chip Sample Wall Flag this comment	4/22/09 8:47 PM

Hi everyone! Thanks for all your positive comments. (Kimber-I loved your Anthropologie comment. You're right on!) It's been a big undertaking. I'm so anxious to open the hive this weekend and check and see how everything is going. I'll continue posting updates here, but will let you know if I do anything more in-depth for the die-hard bee crowd!
