I never ever give advice unless I know the person asking for my opinion can handle (constructive) criticism. That's a lesson I've learned the hard way. When I'm sure the person truly values my opinion and isn't just fishing for compliments, I do what medusa12120 suggested. Or I start with praise like sagekitten85, then I add something like "but you know me, I'm a perfectionist and there's always room for improvement. For example, you could maybe..."

Getting a professional-looking blog to showcase your work and connect with the design community might help too...

Not my style, but I still think it's incredibly gorgeous.

Gregory, don't tell the others, but you're my favorite AT writer.

Interior design for the depressive soul?

The pictures you chose to illustrate this post are very inspiring. Thanks

I like the bluestone patio a lot (if you read the article, the bluestone alone cost about $6,000), but the fence cheapens the whole thing a bit. However, the designer probably chose the cheapest fence because it will be covered by climbing plants anyway in a couple of years.

It looks a lot like Ikea's Betsö - which I bought for less than 50CAN$ two years ago.

I think a lot of people don't organize their books anyway. They randomly put them on bookshelves. What's wrong with wanting them to look nice as a whole? It doesn't make their content less important, and it certainly doesn't make their owner less intelligent.

I also agree that we usually remember what our favorite books look like, which would make it easier for us to find them.

I'll be loosely following the Cure. I'll do it at my pace because the procrastinator that I am doesn't like deadlines :)
