apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

I love the idea of updating old design cues like toile. The London Toile is really cool... I also really like Groovy Q's "Dirty Linens", which employ homoerotic Tom of Finland imagery in a toile application--as beddings. Very racy and not-safe-for-work, but really pushes the envelope in a good way. (I recently saw in a magazine that clothing designer John Bartlett used Dirty Q's toile fabric as a shower curtain in his master bathroom.) www.groovyq.com

I wonder how many allen wrenches you'll need to assemble an entire IKEA house... (Shudder.) God bless those Glaswegians and their soon-to-be-raw fingers.

oh, I'm sure you won't need a wrench. Surely Ikea will include all necessary allen keys.
