I love the casual mess mixed with all the shabby chic collectibles. A bit of mess is... so real. Apartment Therapy Boston | Casual Vintage Displays at London's Sunday Markets |

Regarding the sink, if you're in SF, go down to Building Resources off of 3rd St. and you could probably find a lot of the pieces. They have a bunch of vintage sink basins and slabs of marble for low cost. You could have someone handy build you something similar with a lot of character!

I would paint it a deep teal with shellac and put it in my art studio. Great piece! Apartment Therapy Los Angeles | Good Questions: What Should I Do With This Coffee Table? |

Love it. And so much cheaper to do than the fancy Smith & Hawken wall hangers. Great idea! Apartment Therapy ohdeedoh | Woolly Pocket Gardening Company |

Tres chic! I love a deep rich wall... especially in a small space. It makes a smaller room feel cozy and roomy as the walls recede. Bright light rooms are pretty, of course, but in a small space white can make you feel like all the walls are coming at you and closing in.

I used to have 2 cockatiels that were lost when my roommate accidentally left the deck door open. I did leave the cage w/ food & water on the porch for weeks, but they never came back. (It's unlikely that a bird will return once they're free, but it doesn't hurt to try leaving the cage out for awhile.) The upside to my story is that a friend saw one of my birds chirping up a storm in Golden Gate Park a few days later. I'm hoping that Pierre joined the Parrots of Telegraph Hill. You never know...

Ouch, not a fan at all. (And why geraniums? They're about the easiest plant in the world to grow... maybe they should have done paper Gardenias.) Apartment Therapy San Francisco | Not a Green Thumb? Try These Geraniums |

I rarely like the way that sculpture is integrated into a personal living space, but this is certainly an exception. All the art and design elements are cohesive - what a beautiful space! Apartment Therapy New York | Frèdèric Mèchiche's Marais Loft |

It is a very cool design... but some practical part of me me wants to add a simple glass circle table-top. Would that be so wrong? I fear that my pens & earrings & little things would fall into the cracks between the logs. Apartment Therapy San Francisco | How To... Build a Birch Log Table PointClickHome |

OMG, these are amazing. I wish I were closer to the East Coast... I would love to spend a day with the Green Animals! Will have to get someone to do this out in CA... Apartment Therapy Boston | Topiary Garden: Green Animals Rhode Island |

The large oil painting is really what makes the room "work" IMHO. Apartment Therapy Chicago | The Beauty of Juliette Balconies |

I like the After MUCH better. And, I dig your daring mix of warm and cool greens & blues. Very eclectic, and it works! I feel like greens are always wonderful on a porch b/c they tie in with all the trees & natural vegetation. Apartment Therapy San Francisco | Elissa's Pretty Porch-in-Progress |

How cool! I've seen the "topsy turvy" upside down tomato plants gaining popularity, but this is really unusual. Does anyone know of any less expensive models? Apartment Therapy Re-Nest | Vertical Gardens from Smith Hawken |

Ooooh, I love the sparse use of intense greens here... but it does mean that you have to keep everything else in a room fairly neutral and bright to make it work. And, I'm never quite that disciplined! Apartment Therapy DC | Color Inspiration: Green Scheme |

This is so cool - I made herb goat cheese paté all the time and this will be perfect. Definitely going to get one! Apartment Therapy The Kitchn | Good Question: More Uses for the OXO Herb Mincer? |

What a great idea for old cigar boxes - I love it. You can also paint on them... Ed Musante does beautiful bird paintings on them and shows at Paul Thiebaud Gallery here in SF. Very cool! http://adsl-64-166-29-142.dsl.snfc21.pacbell.net/musante/paintings/49.htm Apartment Therapy San Francisco | Flickr Finds: Cigar Box Planters |

It's by far my favorite color! I actually found a robin's egg in my garden last week and ended up matching it to my Benjamin Moore paint swatches. I found that the closest matches were Antiguan Sky 2040-60 for the deeper tone and Spring Mint 2040-70 for the lighter tone. I have a photo on my blog of the swatches if it helps to see a photo.

Love the hanging pendant! Great alternative to the "Design Within Reach" comparables. And waaaaaay cheaper. Apartment Therapy Re-Nest | IKEA's New PS Collection ICFF 2009 |
