I just tried it this week! I recently had to quit drinking due to health problems, and being the wino I am, this is a really great alternative. I also can't have high sugar beverages, so the low sugar count is great as well. My favorite is the Fine Dry, it tastes exactly like a cider. I wouldn't know the difference in a blind test, honestly. I also liked the Ripe Rouge, similar to Lambrusco, but I did not care for the Light Red. It tasted like a wine cooler to me. What I'm wondering, is if anyone knows how to re-create a drink like this at home? They are a little pricey, and with all the home brew kits and such you can buy easily these days, it seems like it could be an easy DIY beverage. I'd appreciate any feedback, thanks!

Beware: I have a friend who's entire apartment building burned down because a neighbor brought her motorcycle indoors. The gas fumes ignited off of the pilot light of the stove. Bringing the Motorcycle Inside Inspiration Roundup |

I found some really cute scuba/ travel related gifts for some friends on this site recently, and the prices are really reasonable. Great stuff if you like beach/travel stuff! Our Favorite Vintage Home Stores on Etsy |

The couch has character, if you put the right colors with it. Gray, cream, white, and variations on the green. I love the inspiration of the Viceroy Hotel link. I'm sure this style will come back, as well. It's only a matter of time before everyone will want overstuffed 80's leather couches! :) How Do I Make My Big Green Couch Work?

I apologize for the discrepancy in the before picture...I used the photo that was on the craigslist ad I bought it from...the one he sold me was nearly identical, but the handles were lower, and I simply swapped them out with the new ones.

I like the tension that is created in the room by the highly hung art/ small pillows/dark and light couch...it breaks away from the usual mold of your typical page in a CB2 catalog. And I'm guessing that is not a towel, but a large throw with a terry cloth-like texture? The brightness of it doesn't bother me, maybe keep your eyes peeled for an alternative, unless you like it as is!

I used Super 88 over the front to secure everything in place, and then used a stronger glue (not sure what it's called) for the wrap-around to have the extra hold. Seems to hold pretty well so far! Before After: Anne's File Cabinet Makeover | Apartment Therapy Chicago |

Thanks for the comments and questions! Yes, I was in desperate need for some storage space, and needed a fun weekend project. The cabinet was pretty beat up, so I primed it first, and then applied several layers of glossy charcoal gray latex paint. The fabric is adhered securely around each drawer, and while the drawers DO close all the way, I liked the added dimension of having them popped out a bit.
