We stopped by our friend's new pad last evening on the way home and spotted her new DIY closet. Apparently there isn't any storage in her new apartment except for the kitchen cabinets. Needing to co...
Our coffee cups in our small kitchen seem to either get stacked on top of each other or are dangerously close to falling off the shelf anytime we open the door. While we do try to keep them organized ...
Got a bathroom or kitchen with an outdated colour palette? That burnt umber and avocado green tiling not floating your boat in the kitchen or bathroom any longer? Tiling around kitchen backsplash, flo...
Last week we unveiled a new little plant that we started as a part of our commitment to making more of our gifts this year. Since projects can become time consuming, we've started early with the goal...
We've seen this idea in magazines before but never noticed it executed in any house we've visited. While we've never seen this decorating idea in action, we can think of a few reasons it's a great id...
We can't get enough of O!Rachew!'s Flickr photostream. She makes every DIY seem like a no brainer. Her beautifully arranged inspiration boards were a hit and who can forget her DIY vintage frame arr...
The month of November just started and we're already hearing darn Christmas muzak while shopping at the local drugstore. As annoying as that is, it does remind us we should start preparing for some ...
AT reader, Stacy, needs your opinion on a big furniture purchase - a new bed for her first home. "My husband and I are looking for a bed because we will be buying our first home soon. I came across ...
We get this question a lot: "Where can I find a slipcover to fit my sofa?" And while we've all weighed in at some point, nothing beats a custom job. We recently discovered Mayfly, a blog by artist/m...
AT reader Shazzbazz draws the Line! posted this eye-catching collage of images of her eye-catching DIY transformation of a dresser drawer she's had since first purchasing it back in 1991 on our ATLA F...
Yesterday, we posted about paper lanterns with a link to a DIY over on ATSF that suggested how to make one yourself. Today, while surfing, we noticed this lamp over at Addicted2Decorating. While at ...
Yesterday we rounded up some round side table options and it inspired us to show you how we made our own bedside tables. Last year when we were looking for simple mirrored bedside tables, we couldn't ...

When we were small our next door neighbour had the most beautiful blanket box for all of her teddy bears and dolls. We were so jealous of it and have longed for one for ever since. So when we saw how ...
On Saturday we attended our friend's wedding at the Hotel Figueroa in Downtown, Los Angeles. We had stopped by "The Fig" as locals call it, years ago for drinks and remembered it having quite the Cas...
Gottta say, we're always impressed by a DIY that doesn't look like a DIY. Maybe it's a fall thing but it feels to us like there's DIY in the air. First, there was Alex's AC unit cover-up. Then, yes...
Sure we see all kinds of glossy, perfect DIY projects in magazines, but how often does the project actually turn out like that when you do it yourself? For us, it's rare. Maybe it's impatience, a re...

Playing the drums happens to be a strong hobby of ours. Luckily, our drums are stored at a rehearsal space but the few times the kick drum and stands have landed at our apartment, there's little room...
Given our previously confessed "all thumbs" nature, a combination of our inner clumsiness and our inner perfectionist, if we need to hammer in a nail,, we call our handyman. But not everyone's as chi...
We spotted this pretty vase within a table at Cisco Home the other day. We really love the clean lines and the mix of the teak wood and glass textures. If you have wood tables and a creative open mind...
We've blogged all kinds of silhouette prints from Femme Silhouette to Lotus Blossum, Dwell and more. But, if you've outgrown your fondness for birds and wish you could find something a little more pe...
