I'm just glad they stopped doing the royal "we" finally. That was so annoying.

10 Things You Need to Know about Apartment Therapy

I learned somewhere (Lifehacker, maybe?) the trick to pick an easy to remember password, and then move my hands one set of keys to the right (or left, your choice) before typing.

Example:

milliondollarsmile = ,o;;opmfp;;std,o;r

Pretty hard to guess that. Tack a number on the end if it's required (the date tip in this article would work).

Do you think you should leave your sweaters out like that if you've had a moth problem once already? Seems risky to me.

Have you seen this Unclutterer article about moths and sweaters? http://unclutterer.com/2011/10/07/ask-unclutterer-how-should-i-store-sweaters-this-winter/

...except to hold junk! A large counter is better than one that is split into two levels so half of it can be the bar.

I wouldn't recommend using these in a toaster or oven. They'd burn.

Hasn't it been over a year? Feels like this "year in bed" project has been going on forever.

Yup, opposite end of the hall. And apparently there was only one door in the before, so they had to add the others (not replace). It's all in the original article.

We, the readers, need to take the responsibility to check the original source before judging, but the bloggers definitely need to take the responsibility to report accurately. Please be more careful in the future.

I think they might be standing at the opposite end of the hall?

In any case, an excellent upgrade. Not my style, but this is much better than the before. Including the tile.

You have a pretty blank slate there... no pink tiles or anything to force a color choice on you. So pick accessories you like (you seem to be starting off with blue already) and then pick a paint color that complements (purple, blue, or green?) or contrasts (yellow or orange?) the colors of your accessories.

It's a small space, so be bold with color.

jeda21, I'm guessing that's because most pieces aren't heavy enough to worry about that. If you have a heavy piece it might be worth finding the stud, or you can use a screw anchor.
