apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

LOVE the idea of landlord-friendly design options, as well as clever storage/organizing solutions.

See all the other comments on the "both" links... tons there!

I like this. I had to cut and paste "Lynn's List" to this comment area {sorry, Lynn, that is what I call it... thanks to Tara!}

Read the following and comment on which one(s) appeal to you:

1) creative solutions - stylising and maximising a small space (we yearn to live big in small places!);
2) reversible decor - being creative and imaginative in a rental space (working around restrictions... creating an individualistic temporary and possibly mobile space);
3) space solutions - storage ideas wanted for teenyweeny places;
4) home personalisation - what defines and inspires your style, and what makes your space so unique;
5) showcasing your cozy corners, or collections;
6) accessorising your home with your favourite things- ie books, art, sculptures, pottery, wall pieces, decorative accents etc;
7) strategic and effective use of lighting (especially when natural light is limited);
8) your layout and design in a one room pad/bachelor/studio;
9) sprucing up and 'oomphing' a space on a tight budget (present your very affordable ideas!);
10) showcase your pre-loved/pre-used finds turned into cool treasures- ie junkyard items, flea markets, thrift shops, garage sales etc;

bonus* beautifying and decorating the home for the coming holidays (perhaps a December theme...??!)

Why don’t we pick one or combo of the above?
(1-10)

Y'll have fantastic creative concepts!
Keep brainstorming and adding to the comment list... November should be a blast!

{Great job, Lynn and Tara!}

Some of these look like interesting topics for postings, but I would be hard pressed to come up with an entire month's content for them. Then again, I am not as talented and gifted as our divine editors.

I definately vote for all the items on Lynns list.
Especially these...

1) creative solutions - stylising and maximising a small space (we yearn to live big in small places!);

2) reversible decor - being creative and imaginative in a rental space (working around restrictions... creating an individualistic temporary and possibly mobile space);

3) space solutions - storage ideas wanted for teenyweeny places;


8) your layout and design in a one room pad/bachelor/studio;

Oops . . . I hit the "post" button quicker than I could add my enthusiastic support of "Lynn's List" items 1-3. (i.e., couldn't have said it better myself, so I didn't! Thanks Lynn!)
