Thanks for the opportunity to win one! I love KOHLER products but I'm afraid they're not in my budget. I'll be keeping my fingers crossed until the winners are announced. Win: KOHLER Whitehaven Kitchen Sink & Purist Faucet Holiday Giveaway |

Great space! Love that bench at the end of the bed & the dinning set looks really unique. I grew up with naugahyde material in my home and still appreciate it today. The vintage chairs look terrific with the West Elm table. Ricardo's Spin On Mid Century Nostalgia House Tour |

Great house and I love the lived in look of it. The pops of bright color with all that warm wood is really eye-catching. Mark's "Retro Cabin Mod" in Eagle Rock House Tour |

I really like the look of pegboards in a kitchen. Thanks for the great collection of links and practical 'how-to's" I'm going to put them to good use. Pegboards in the Kitchen |

Super cute space! I'm amazed with what you did with just 300 square feet. Very impressive, colorful and cozy. Leslie's Mid Century Optimism House Tour |

I absolutely LOVE these! So glad modern designers like Jonathan Adler are giving us more options when it comes to color. Sneak Preview: Jonathan Adler's Colorful New Sink Collection for Kohler |

Just wanted to put in a good word for the "Ultimate Scratching Post." I've had cats all my life and I've gone through multiple scratching posts. I currently have three cats and they've been using the Ultimate Scratching Post for the last two years. It's super sturdy and has held up really well so I don't plan on replacing it anytime soon. It also comes with an optional "post perch" that you can purchase separately so your cats can sleep on top of it. My cats love this thing! Never considered painting it before but I just might give that a try. 10 Well Designed Cat Toys |

I'd go bold and bright with Mondrian as my inspiration. Repaint the cabinet doors of the vanity in various colors (bright red/yellow/blue/black and white) pick one of those colors for the walls as well. Add a slick modern light fixture or a vintage one. Replace the round mirror with a square one. And add a new slick looking modern medicine cabinet over the toilet. Can't really see the floor but maybe you can paint that too or add color coordinating rugs? Tiny MCM Bathroom Remodel Ideas? Good Questions |

3 floor walk up. Had to park moving van a block away due to heavy traffic on street. Extremely hot summer day. Had 4 pals help me and my guy but it was a task and a half. Someone dropped a box and some antique Japanese vases my mother had left me were broken. And we couldn't get my newly bought beautiful vintage green velvet couch in the building. Took doors off & tried windows but it just wouldn't fit. I think my pals would have killed me if they could have. Learned my lesson that day and never asked friends to help me move again. Things also almost always mysteriously go missing when I move. But I've moved 10-12 times and all things considered, it's been a pretty painless experience. What's Your Worst Moving Horror Story? |

Love that kitchen (wish there were more photos of it!) and it's great to see artwork all over the walls. I hate blank walls that are barren of art and Lisa's made great use of all her wall space. Nice teapot & clock collections too. I'm a collector myself so I appreciate the organized clutter. Lisa's Artistic Time Capsule House Tour |

Nothing worse than spending an hour searching through pages and pages of junk on Craigslist or Ebay wrongly listed as "mid-century" or "danish modern" in an effort to grab attention & mislead potential buyers. I wish these sites would do a better job of policing their listings and making sure things are properly listed & labeled. Guess that means I'm suffering from "Craigslist Elitist Syndrome" myself but I personally refer to it as "Craigslist & Ebay Fatigue." Do You Suffer from Craigslist Elitist Syndrome? |

Love these photos! A home just isn't a home until it's got a cat (or dog) inhabiting it. They make every house seem inviting and comfortable. Cats in House Tours The Best of 2010 |

Love it! You made some wonderful updates and really improved the space. I really like the bold & playful pops of color from the artwork combined with the white walls and wood floors. And you made great use of Ikea cabinets. Thanks for sharing your home. I found it inspiring. Gene & Heidi's Colorful Art-filled Home House Tour |

10 years ago my guy and I decided to sell our mutual record collection due to space concerns in our studio apartment. Together we had hundreds of albums and many of them were rarities still not available on CD. I hung on to a few of my favorites handed down to me from my parents and some bootlegs, but that was it. We never regretted it and we never looked back until recently. Regrets, I've Had a Few: Getting Rid of a Collection |

I LOVE this place! Great use of bold colors and tons of wonderful eye candy. It looks fun and inviting. That entry way is to die for and I really like the fireplace. And that bed is amazing! It's easily one of my favorite house tours. Thanks for sharing your space Shauntelle & Dave! Shauntelle & Dave's Controlled Kitsch - Part 2 House Tour |
