How to Stop Holding Onto Your Paper Clutter
Paper clutter is often one of the hardest types of clutter to sift through because it’s a blend of practical items you hold onto “just in case” (like receipts, bills, and bank statements) and sentimental things that you might feel slightly guilty about getting rid of (such as birthday cards, photos, and ticket stubs). Plus, it’s often spread out in piles across your home (think: a junk drawer, the entryway, or a closet).

This Kitchen Got a 1940s-Style Redo — Somehow, It’s Bright and Modern Too
Even when an older, outdated room DESPERATELY needs updating, it can be a bummer if the remodel doesn’t retain any vintage charm. It came time for Hilary Alexander — a singer with an internationally renowned swing band — to update the 1906 Craftsman house in Los Angeles she’s owned for 18 years and shares with her boyfriend and her two young boys.

I Can't Stop Making Homemade Reed Diffusers, and My Home Smells So Good
I’m not a huge fan of artificial fragrances, but I still love to have my home smell good. The answer? Essential oils — especially when used in a set-it-and-forget-it reed diffuser. These work by wicking fragrant oil through porous reeds, which help disperse scent in the air.What I’ve also noticed, unfortunately, is that many of the nicer reed diffusers are also pretty pricey.

I Stopped Using My Notes App for My Shopping List, and Tried This Practical Alternative Instead
I must admit: I like going to the grocery store. If I could, I would spend an hour or more walking through every aisle and department, looking at everything available and grabbing whatever feels right in the moment. As lovely as this sounds (to me, at least), it’s not exactly practical. So, I rely on grocery lists to help me make the most of my time at the store.However, I’ve never really found a grocery list method that’s worked for me.

A Victorian Home's Entire Kitchen Was Demolished — Except For the Dishwasher
Historic homes often come with complicated maintenance and renovation challenges — like uneven foundations, tricky electrical or plumbing, and even health concerns with lead paint and asbestos. And sometimes the problems are significant enough that there’s little left to salvage. For Christine Urbanek, her 1890s Victorian was one of those instances where it was better to reconfigure the interior layout completely.

The Finnish Wellness Ritual You Should Try the Next Time You Shower
I live in New York City, where there are quite a few Eastern European saunas and bath houses. I’ve only been to a few of them, but every experience has been memorable — partially because of how intense-slash-relaxing a sauna or spa day can be, but also because of the ambiance. Some spas serve full meals, and some have rooms where the walls are made entirely of ice. And sometimes I’ll see someone getting brushed with leafy sticks while steaming up in the sauna.

I Finally Got My Hands on the Viral Beverage Fridge That’s Always Sold Out — It’s Worth Every Penny
One thing about me: I love a good beverage. Seltzer, Diet Coke, a gorgeous iced coffee, fancy kombuchas, non-alcoholic Ghia Spritzes, good natural wine, ice-cold cheap beer — the list goes on. As such, my mom once got me a wine fridge for Christmas that could hold up to 12 bottles of wine. It was nice enough, but it was no match for my apartment’s winter heating system and internal summer temps, so it could really only hold the wine at about 55 to 70 degrees.
