Heartless Machine's telephonographers made out of old horn instruments are also portable, no cables/cords, work with your iphone/ipad, and sound great! Always a perfect addition to any outdoor party I throw, and they look a lot cooler than a boxy speaker Getting Ready for Summer Entertaining: A Guide to Outdoor Audio |

I love that despite a popcorn/textured ceiling (the bane of my existence in Austin!) your room is so fabulous that I barely even noticed it. Well done! Shayln's \"Paint it Gold\" Workspace Workspace Tour |

Love your room! I'm in the contest too, and also from Austin! And I used those same Ikea curtains, but in a different color. Great minds think alike! Lindsey's Crisp & Colorful Bedroom My Bedroom Retreat Contest |

thanks! This piece was actually something I've had since I was about 14years old. My mother bought it, but I have no idea where she got it. It's a jewelry case, but I've accumulated so much over the years that I had to put a second case on top of it! Liz's Natural Materials Bedroom My Bedroom Retreat Contest |

This is my favorite house tour ever! I love seeing someone who has a lot of fabulous stuff and knows how to put it all together without making it look cluttered. I adore everything about this house and want to just move in! Susan's Adventure for the Senses House Tour |

I love the Lack table! I bought floating Lack shelves for our bedroom, and wanted matching floating nightstands. Sadly, Ikea doesn't make the size we need, so we cut the Lack table in half and mounted both halves to the wall. Voila- the floating nightstand! Hacking the IKEA Lack: One Table, Ten Different Ways |

I have nothing to do with Boomcase. In fact, my husband contacted them a year ago, asking them if they had a problem with him making his own Boomcase, provided he not advertise the fact that he was doing so. He contacted them because he's an artist too, and understands how much it sucks to have people making cheap knock-offs of your work and then blogging about it. Boomcase was cool with it, since he was upfront with his intentions. His case looks great, but he respects the original artist enough to not want to take business away from him by putting tutorials on the Internet about how he did it Make Your Own Luggage Speaker System Instructables |

I think it's pretty uncool of Apartment Therapy to post this, since it could potentially take away business from Boomcase. The guy who started making these and his current team at Boomcase probably work really hard, and are very good at what they do. $500 isn't that much to pay for something hand-made, original in design, and of very good craftsmanship. Obviously, creative DIYers are going to make these on their own anyway, but you don't have to advertise that, or make it so easy. Make Your Own Luggage Speaker System Instructables |

Thanks! The coffee table and end tables were actually my husband's grandmother's. We think they might be by Adrian Pearsall but we're not sure. Elizabeth's "Vintage Midnight" Room Room for Color Contest |

I love the plates too! My husband's family owned a china shop, and we have a ton of random plate samples. This is a fabulous idea of how to display them in a fun way Elizabeth's "Java Float" Room Room for Color Contest |

The heads are from Z Gallerie. They're actually my husband's, sort of a placeholder until we can find/afford a really great large-scale painting or photograph to put over the couch. Elizabeth's "Vintage Midnight" Room Room for Color Contest |

the teal wallpaper is actually on a sliding barn door. Difficult to see in the photo, but it's a sliding door on a track that covers the entryway when closed. So, the wallpaper isn't necessarily behind the chair at all times Elizabeth's "Vintage Midnight" Room Room for Color Contest |
