Hi girls! I don’t know about you but I have been obsessed with all things miniature since I was a little kid. I had a dollhouse filled with miniature things but could really care less about the little people inside. [...]

Okay, so sorry for holding out on you, but since the beau reads this site, I couldn’t give up the goods on this before I actually gave him this gift for Romantic Hanukah (our anniversary and V-Day are 4 days [...]

I Like It: Downy Wrinkle Releaser

by DianaFebruary 15, 2010 Home and Interiors

I can honestly say that this product has changed my life. Lame, I know, but it’s as important to me now as deodorant or toothpaste. What can I say? My clothes are always wrinkled. I’m wrinkly. And this shit actually [...]

Beat the (Dry) Heat with Radiator Humidifiers

by CodyFebruary 3, 2010 Health

The New York Times recently published an article on radiator humidifiers, which was referenced in an Apartment Therapy post (which is where I found it).

She’s Crafty: Paper Bouquet

by VanessaJanuary 25, 2010 Activities

Hello again, girls. I don’t know if you have noticed but Valentine’s Day is soon upon us. Honestly, if you haven’t noticed, you must be a recluse with 30 cats in your apartment. I mean, Duane Reade alone could supply [...]

Editor’s Page: Getting Agate-tated

by CodyJanuary 15, 2010 Editorial

Don’t be fooled by the rocks that I got; it’s just my current obsession with pretty, pretty crystals. On a necklace, as a candle holder, or simply on it’s own next to a book on a shelf, they are the [...]

Mega-Birch: The Non-Working Fireplace Fix

by CodyJanuary 12, 2010 Home and Interiors

I’ve struggled for a long time to figure out the best way to utilize the non-working fireplaces in my apartment. The fireplaces were a big selling point of the apartment—we loved the idea of having classic Brooklyn details and a [...]

I Like It: The Hanging Handbag Organizer

by CodyJanuary 7, 2010 Fashion

Yeah, I have a lot of bags. Recently, my mom called me a collector, which somehow made me feel less like a compulsive shopper and more along the lines of a connoisseur. However you look at it, it’s not abnormal [...]

I Like It: The Ikea Barometer Lamp

by CodyNovember 12, 2009 Home and Interiors

Lighting is the easiest way to brighten up a room (groundbreaking observation, I know). I like to think of lamps like the jewelry of a room—glittery and shiny and when they’re done right, they make the room; done wrong, they [...]

by VanessaOctober 26, 2009 Activities

In a world filled with drab utilitarian objects, doesn’t life feel better when the things you have to use and look at everyday are actually cute? One object that tends to be pretty lackluster is the wall clock. Though there [...]

Instant Cozy Fireplace Feel (No Fireplace Required)

by CodyOctober 12, 2009 Home and Interiors

It’s getting cold outside and dammit if I didn’t have a leaf fall at my feet yesterday. While I may not be all ga-ga for fall like everyone else in this crazy town, if it’s going to come, I’m going [...]

Purple Reign

by CodySeptember 30, 2009 Home and Interiors

The Purple Queen (aka tradescantia pallida), is the perfect plant. I say this because it is literally the only plant that has ever survived under my watch. Due to negligence, bad luck, or a simple ignorance of proper care, dozens [...]
