A Builder-Grade Kitchen Gets a Pop of Color with an Easy Backsplash Upgrade
It’s not that Detroit-based interior designer Christie Kristl didn’t like the updated kitchen in her 1963 home, but it didn’t exactly scream fun. The hardware, countertops, and cabinets were all fine, so they stayed put.But thankfully, when the previous owners updated everything in 2018, they didn’t bother with any backsplash — so Christie got to make the call.

This Mini Birdfeeder Is Like a Cute Cafe for Birds
I’ve never considered myself a bird person. But a few years ago, when I spent a few months in Vermont, my sister-in-law’s Bird Buddy bird feeder — and all of the birds it attracted every single day — was the highlight of my long-term stay. I’ve held off on getting a bird feeder in my Brooklyn apartment for a few reasons (mainly, my fear of attracting rats and my lack of an elevated-enough outdoor space).

She Put a Wine Rack in Her Bedroom Closet, and I Want to Copy Her
Most closets have a closet rod and some come with at least one shelf, which is useful enough for storing your clothes and sometimes even sheets or towels. But the standard closet is not necessarily ideal for storing small accessories and trinkets, which can quickly turn into a pile of clutter. In a recent video, content creator Taylor Joy Riley proposes a clever closet organization solution in the form of … a wine rack. Yes, really.

Instead of Moving, This Family of 5 Keeps Reinventing the Same Rental Apartment
Over the past nine years, Ella Hall, cofounder and CEO of Stitchroom, and her husband, Brandon, have reinvented the same rental apartment again and again — adding a DIY nursery, building triple-bunk beds, and continually reworking the layout as their family grew. (They're now expecting baby No. 4!)

An Unfinished Basement Is Now an Inviting Suite with a Tiny IKEA Kitchen
When Shardé Marchewski and her husband, Jens, moved into their 1885 Boston home four years ago, the basement was unfinished. And not just incomplete but like a scene out of a scary movie.Luckily, the couple had a vision — as all creatives tend to: a gorgeous in-law suite complete with a fully functional kitchen. (The kitchen, arguably, ended up being the star of the project.) “We wanted the kitchen to feel timeless, striking, and functional.

Stop Using Your Notes App for Your Shopping List — Try This Practical Alternative Instead
I’m a big fan of making lists, but I’m still looking for the ideal list system to help keep my entire life organized. I’ve tried to-do list apps, Post-It notes, and a magnetic whiteboard on my fridge. I’ve sent texts and emails to myself and have made countless lists in my Notes app. All these list-making methods work okay, but I still feel like there’s some better way to keep track of everything.

I Painted My Shower Ceiling to Look Like Grand Central's Constellation Mural
People say bright ideas often come to them while taking a shower. But the shower ceiling in my vintage bathroom was where good ideas got lost. The blank, uninspired white square, punctuated by a tarnished flush mount, did nothing to inspire a brainstorm and was far from spa-like. I’d been dreaming of some sort of makeover that didn’t involve a full demo for more than a year. My go-to muse? The constellation ceiling of Grand Central Station’s main concourse in New York City.

A Kitchen Redo with Renter-Friendly Hacks Has the Right Amount of Drama
When Anna Ladd moved into her 100-year-old Philadelphia home, it had everything she was looking for. It still had some of its historical charm but had been renovated enough that it didn’t feel like an overwhelming project (this being her first home, after all). However, the kitchen, which was renovated in 2022 (after being “very 2000s beige,” as Anna describes it), was a bit over-renovated for her taste.

The 10 Best Storage Ideas for Small Spaces
Living in a small space comes with its own set of challenges, often including an overall lack of storage. That means you regularly have to come up with creative solutions to store things, whether it be adding a multi-functional piece of furniture or reimagining the way you currently use each room of your home. It’s all about finding ways to cleverly use the square footage you have or making sure you are bringing in items that’ll actually help, not hinder, your storage needs.

This Couple’s Galley Kitchen Got an English Cottage-Inspired Makeover
Jordan Smith knows most homeowners might raise eyebrows at her choice to remove the upper kitchen cabinets in her tiny kitchen. She and her husband, Luke, live in a 529-square-foot studio apartment in Brooklyn, so storage is at a premium. But to her, it all made sense.The builder-grade cabinets and finishes weren’t the couple’s style, and they knew they wanted to renovate the kitchen before they even moved in.

A “Lifeless” Kitchen Got a European-Style Redo with a Pink Island
A vintage-inspired kitchen? We love to see it. But a dated kitchen? Hard pass. Daniela Sanchez, founder of Rose House Talent Agency, had a kitchen that fell into the latter category; in fact, the room (sans appliances) was original to the 1979 home. “‘Dated’ would be an understatement,” Daniela says of the original kitchen.

I'm Taking Small-Space Notes From This Family of 4 in a 450-Square-Foot Studio
Let me be frank: I live in a one-bedroom, decently-sized Manhattan apartment with my husband and three pets. I have a proper living room, a kitchen with elongated cabinets for extra storage, and I have installed small-space hacks, like wall-mounted clothing racks, for ample functionality. However, I still feel like it’s bursting at the seams.

Stop Bringing Wine or Flowers to Parties — Give This Thrifted Swap Instead
One of the most challenging gift-giving scenarios for me is host and hostess gifts. I don’t want to show up to a party empty-handed, but I also don’t want to add even more stuff for the host or hostess to clean up and find a place for at the end of the night. Typically, I like to give people gifts that can be consumed — coffee, chocolate, candy, wine, or flowers.

She Buys This $3 Ross Ring Holder by the Dozen, and Now I Want One
In a kitchen as small as the one in content creator Sophie Simmons’ 331-square-foot Manhattan apartment, it’s understood that every item has to serve a purpose. But that doesn’t mean practical pieces can’t match her glam, Paris-inspired style. A $2.99 faux crystal ring holder from Ross Dress for Less adds that touch of shine and serves a purpose, and Sophie loves them so much she buys multiple at a time.
