apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

Not.... especially for $75 a pop! I like a touch of the "found" decor aesthetic when it tells a story - about that time you and a friend stumbled on something great at a flea market or maybe about a piece of furniture from your first adult apartment. It's purposeful and meaningful. I find it absurd though when people pay ridiculous amounts of money to manufacture faux humbleness.

Cool, but can definitely be DIY'ed using the IKEA hemma cord and a piece of tupperware from your aunt or mom.

thought they looked cool at first glance but not so sure now that I know they're tupperware.

please stop sticking found objects on suspended bulbs.

you are kidding.

I'm not sure it's hot, but I'll bet it would be if you left the light on for awhile. I wonder if the plastic would melt? If it grows on me, I could make the yellow one...I actually own that bowl and lid...but then what would I make my extra large batches of cookie dough in? :)

Fire hazard ahoy.

not hot. i remember my mom winning a colander much like the white one from a tupperware party when i was a kid.

I think they're a terrific reuse of a product, especially given the potential for color.

yuck. Not a cute idea

I find them genuinely pretty. Who cares what they were before if they look nice (though, from the comments, lots of people don't think they do). There is also the fire hazard issue. I think they would fit nicely in a few homes, but not in most. They really don't fit the Pottery Barn aesthetic everyone I know seems to adore.
