After much planning we finally purchased a new kitchen last weekend. We will be installing it in about 3 week and have everything sorted- except the splashback. Over the past 4 days we’ve been inve...
We recently read a Craig's List post advertising the sale of Ikea's Expedit with the line "It's soldiered its way through two homes but now it's time to let it go." Clearly this poster didn't know ...
We're not sure what it is, but we can't get enough of the delicate and feminine feel of doilies, lace and other see-through patterned things. We gathered some fun cutout pendant lights in case you ca...
One thing we've learned after a few years of doing house tours is recognizing the definition of a small space varies widely upon geographic location. In Los Angeles, "small" would be considered spac...
Since reading Florence Broadhurst: Her Secret & Extraordinary Lives by Helen O'Neill a few months back, we've been collecting images of how people have used Florence Broadhurst's wallpaper and fabric...
Gregory's post yesterday on loft living had us wondering how we'd fill such a large, open space. Our go-to decor usually skews cozy and we're thinking large letters would lend a helping hand with a...
Here are ten Silver Lake, Echo Park and Los Feliz homes and apartments from our archives that we think you might enjoy revisiting (we do!). And if you happen to live in one of these neighborhoods, o...
If you happened to make it to this year’s ACL fest in Austin, you witnessed a phenomenon we've been experiencing a lot lately: rain. We found ourselves needing something the other day: an umbrella ...

We loved all the great sofas under $1500 that Abby found for her round up post last week, so we decided to do the same with lounge chairs! Perfect for extra seating or relaxing with a good book, thes...
With school back in session and work on overload a good small desk is a necessity. We work on a vintage left handed desk we found at a garage sale and have found loads of great small desks on craig...
Last week we rounded up sofas. This week we're looking at lamps. We wanted to find ones that are reasonably priced enough that you might even be able to afford 2, for a console behind your sofa or ...
A sofa's a key piece in a living room, the item you're gonna plunk down the most money but, for those of us on a budget, "most money" is a relative term. We know that we like to keep it under $1500 a...
Living in Los Angeles, we're constantly surrounded by artists, actors--but most of all, musicians. We love how our friends have created clever ways to display their music memorabilia and instruments...

There's a theory, known as reticular activation, which suggests that whenever you're focused on something -- say you're pregnant or going to Africa -- it suddenly appears everywhere. Well, that theo...
We've been fans of using gray as a modern looking neutral ever since we did a roundup of gray bedrooms. Now we see it everywhere and love how versatile it can be going from soothing to dramatic dep...
A rug can anchor a large room, create small rooms within a larger room, bring a vibrant bit of life and colour to a space or just be a nice, soft cozy place for your bare feet to land. Many of us na...

We've never had enough space for a craft room (or the supplies to fill it with for that matter). But these lovely craft zones show us you don't need an entire room--just a bit of creativity......
We were guests in an acquaintance's home recently and they revealed to us that they couldn't wait to redo their checkered flooring. Having just moved into their new home, they didn't like the classi...
Pennant decor always has a upbeat, playful vibe without feeling like it's just for kids rooms. And while we love stringing pennants as party garland to make a space feel festive, pennant decor captu...
