I rinse, shake and then wrap my parsely and cilantro in paper towels and put in a plastic produce bag. This keep it fresh for a week.

After using fresh ginger I place it in a small zip bag and put it in the freezer. It's always there when you need it.

Maybe this could be a DIY. Think you could buy roller shades and glue on some fabric?

Why not paint it a contrasting color of the bathroom and hi-light its uniqueness.

I would like to see the woman in the farm fresh ad on the top left move over an inch or so. It would look like she's having milk poured on her head.

Parchment paper, really helps with clean up. I also have the nesting pyrex bowls, they're great. I received them from my mother-in-law, she got them for a wedding present, 60 years ago.

Also love my seasoned iron skillet and kitchen aide.

I have a really small TV tucked under the cabinets over my sink and I LOVE IT !!! I don't have it on all the time but it's good company when I'm alone and spending a lot of time in there. I don't have any music, I'd be dancing all the time and not get any cooking done !!!!!!!!!

Apartment Therapy Chicago | How To: Make "Fold, Stitch & Stuff" Floor Cushions

I recently covered my sofa pillows, using the old pillows and just covering them. I'm not too thrilled with the fabric I chose, but Wal Mart is the only source in my little town. I've looked on line for fabric, but oh my are they expensive. Does anyone know of a good source on line that won't break the bank?

Also, I'm with EvaInNL, I would love to make a day bed for my guest room, which right now is just my junk room. How about it Shelly?

You go BambiJo!! Sounds like you have pretty much the same types of projects going as I do. I really, I mean REALLY, need to get busy and get things done. I want to get busy with the painting but need to wait until the weather warms up so the windows can be opened.
I've been thinking all white walls and lots of pops of color, I think I'm afraid of color on the walls. Hmmm.. we'll see.

Hi, I also have the same flowers in my bedroom (IKEA). I've been trying to decide on a paint color for the wall, love the fuchsia wall, I may "bite the bullet" and go for bold.
