I was/am very interested in this post since I have a similar problem. Like other folks, I bought a cheap 5x8 rug that now floats in our living room- I am embarrassed by it every time someone comes to our house. I am saving up for a ~$400 Flor rug- perfect for toddler, dog and cat spills. My living room has less space between the TV and the couch, so I am getting 27 carpet tiles, and I am going to cut three tiles in half along the long edge to get a perfect size rug that will be 1000% family friendly.

Old grout!! It will be the death of me. No way to get it clean. And we don't have a fan in our uber small master bath.

We did take down the sliding glass doors in our guest/baby bathroom and that has made a HUGE difference. Now if someone will just come in and give me a new shower in both bathrooms, I would be soooo beyond happy. It's me against 40 years of dirty grout!

Any thoughts on doing these cookies without pecans or any sort of nuts?

LOVE. I want that couch and that bedroom. AHHHHH. My family would ruin this place in two minutes, but I'd love to have a perfect place like this to escape!!

Behr Musical Mist is also a fantastic pink.

This might be my favorite house tour ever. Down to the butterfly wallpaper that I LOVE.

Love this. What a great job!

Hilarious. You're right- hippsters are rarely that hip.

Ohh, I love the simplicity. And I love that it's practical for your needs.

We are a Christmukkah household. We decided years ago what the holiday means to us- a celebration with family and friends- tradition over religion! We use silver and blue colors, and display the menorah above the stockings and next to the tree.

Last year was the first year my husband had ever gotten a tree- now he loves it!!
