A steamer ~ I haven't ironed in 6 years. I don't own an iron or a board anymore. I have replaced the steamer twice though...TOTALLY worth it. I do want to upgrade to a retail fabric steamer in the next 2 years. I do reccomend getting the rowenta one though http://www.shoprowenta.com/detail/ROW IS1430/Pro_Compact_Steamer Conair also makes them http://www.conair.com/compact-fabric-steamer-p-208.html The Conair ones tend to die after 1 year. My first Conair lasted for 3 years, the second after they changed the style of it lasted only a year. Have had the Rowenta one for about 2 now. LOVE IT.. worth every penny. a GF just borrowed it as she bought some linen drapes & couldn't get the wrinkles out, worked better than she thought it would on them. Now if you like creases in your clothing, then yes you need a board & a Iron. Ironing Board Alternatives? Survey \| Apartment Therapy Los Angeles Flag this comment	1/26/10 12:53 AM
Epiphone is a brand name ~ This is listed as an 1930's Edison Epiphone Cabinet ~ maybe it was used as storage for a recording or a dictation machine in some type of an office. From what I can find they used to make amplifies for guitars later on it looks like the brand Epiphone was bought by the Gibson Guitar Company.

Hobby Lobby ~ they seem to always have some version of the frames they carry on sale for 50%. Apartment Therapy Chicago \| 5 Great Sources for Affordable Frames Flag this comment	9/25/09 12:24 PM
My parents got this a few years ago ~ They LOVE IT ~ It used to annoy me being on the wall like it is ~ but I am now so used to it being there I hardly notice it. It works great also, totally worth the expense. I also fogot to turn it off already this summer I forgot it was on & the energy bill barely reflected my mishap I think the bill was about $6 higher than normal. Which isn't bad compared to leaving a window unit running for 48 hours straight... Apartment Therapy New York \| Best Products: I Heart My Mitsubishi Mr. Slim AC Flag this comment	8/26/09 12:41 AM
Why would you put a pillowcase that has a design like this to the inside of the bed? isn't the idea to show off how beaitufl it is? http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_aiRPeS8RqUo/SXkfz02yykI/AAAAAAAAGZs/K2M6Be_VveY/s1600-h/100_2709 %28Medium%29.jpg Apartment Therapy Los Angeles \| Making The Bed: Pillowcase Ends Facing Inside Or Out?

stefanielutz ~ I was jsut going to post a link for the "I'm not a paper cup" also. You beat me to it. I have also seen them sold at the container store. I do like the lid on the Aussie one better though. Yet it's not worth paying the exchange rate & the international shipping rate when you can basically get the same one here in the states.

I cut my landline, my internet, cable & cut the texting plan on my cell phone. I kept Netflix though. At the $15.00 a month for 2 films it really is cheaper than going to rent them at the stores. Redbox hasn't really set up this area as of yet (there's only 2 & they 20 minutes away from where I am currently staying.) so a $1 DVD option is pretty limited for me & also the film selection is WAY better on Netflix than at the local places.

I used to work for a used bookstore. I would travel to the biggest booksales between Wi, IL & IA with the owner to buy for the shop. We always had to pack the books flat. Not really sure why there is such a strong opinion difference between flat & upright on book shelves. IF the place has properly temperature regulation it really does not matter if they are flat or upright.

I was thinking a solid colored curtain would be the best also ~ maybe a yellow to accent the yellow tiles & possibly tone down the all of the blue. I like the idea of getting a new tension rod also ~ You get a new rod at Target or Walmart for under $10. Apartment Therapy New York \| Good Questions: Advice for Rental Bathroom?
