What paint/color did you use on the blue dresser? It's gorgeous.

Apartment Therapy editors, I wish you would delete comments like this. This has nothing to do with the question being asked, but it is instead a snarky comment aimed at the person asking the question.

The screenprints...I'm just not sure the design warrants the design? It kinda looks like something you would find at Ikea for $15:/ I would much rather spend $300 on her ceramics.

Though with her name on the screenprints I'm sure they will sell with no problem:)

I love the first image but the dogs sitting on the kitchen counters make me a little ill. My aunt lets her cat run around her kitchen and there is always loose fur floating into the food:( Needless to say we don't eat there anymore.

"I think going to someone's home is an extremely intrusive way to reach people rife with the possibility for scams and crimes. It often feels like bullying, puts me on edge, and makes me extremely unreceptive to the product or message even if I would otherwise agree with it. I mean who knows if the people are who they say they are?"

I agree with this completely. I work alone at home and notice I'm becoming increasingly angry because of all the disturbances and feeling unsafe.

Nothing against anyone's religious beliefs, but Jehovah's Witnesses are the biggest offenders in my neighborhood. They always send two men who stand on my porch and knock for several minutes.

I've gotten to the point where I just don't bother answering the door anymore. I am exasperated with all the flyers attached to my porch and mailbox too.

I always think that if you product/religion/environmental group is that great you won't have to force your belief down my neck. That always is a red flag to me that what you are "selling" must not be that good.

Beautiful house, but sad they painted over the wood of the window frames.

Michaelc reminds me of some of the morons I worked with in LA. When I told one movie exec that I was from Kentucky he said whoa this must have been a change! I worked on Coalminer's Daughter! W T F? Yeah, because everyone in the state rides around in the back of their wagons full of coal, bare feet hanging off.

I'm amazed at how many people comment negatively on places that have never visited. Arrogance and ignorance, why do these always seem to go hand and hand?

this style is so hot right now, you could probably get a good price on Craig's list if it isn't your style. I think you would get sick of a bright primary color on all the pieces. I agree with the white recs, or maybe an ivory without the muddy yellow overtones


Good Questions: Should I Change the Color or Just Sell the Furniture?

I loved the "spoiled girl's apartment", but I'm inspired by how a room looks, regardless of how much money it cost. If they did it on a budget that is great. I think the magazine has gotten better every issue.
