One of our favorite dining rooms on AT isn't really a dining room at all, it's more of a breakfast nook. There's something about the black and white checked linoleum, the paint color, the sun coming ...
Have an empty wall just begging for some sort of "wow" factor? This wall of tea light candles from Maggie's house tour (House Call: Maggie Mason of Mighty Goods) might be just the ticket. We bet it l...
Art in kitchens can be difficult. More often than not, you're dealing with cabinetry dominating most of your walls. When we saw Paul's kitchen lined with masks he's collected over the years we fell ...
This afternoon, for some reason, we suddenly thought of Julie and Andrew's Art-Filled San Francisco Abode. While we've blogged quite a few art displays, we haven't yet mentioned theirs......
Weeks after Rebecca and Roger's Flux-Redux House Tour, visions of the gorgeous wallpaper backsplash still dance through our head(s)......
Speaking of found style, Monique is one of the masters... ...
Last year we paid a visit to the home of ceramic artist Diana Fayt, and some of you may remember her beautiful glowbowls, pictured above at right, hanging from a strand of metal wire....
One of the many things we loved about Monique and Richard's Apartment at a Glance was this shelf that wraps around a corner. ...
So many contest entries, so much inspiration. Just one of the many things we've loved comes from Northwest #11: John's Mission Melange....
We're in the midst of an office organizing overhaul (i.e. HELL) and we're trying to come up with a practical and clever way to organize our "creativity" (i.e. MESS). We were particularly blown away ...
It's been a while since we posted our House Tour: Julie and Andrew's Art-Filled San Francisco Abode, but that doesn't mean we've forgotten their kitchen wall....
A couple of months ago our sister site ran a House Tour of a Melbourne family's cool home. In LA House Tour: Natalie, Nicholas and Arthur's Circus, the framed photos above the bed caught our eye. We...
So much inspiration comes to us from the House Tours/Calls we post. We adore the lovely blue kitchen ceiling in our House Call: Diana Fayt. Jump below for more pics......
Why does it always seem that we suddenly covet something in particular after we've been to Alameda? Lately we've developed a thing for green pottery. It may be because in our SF House Call: Molly M...
There are some things we blog that just stay with us. The backsplash of Monty Ravenscroft's kitchen at 15 1/2 Peckham House is one of them....
The simple black-and-white graphics of Anna's mugs in our NY House Tour: Anna's Old-and-New Newburgh Victorian really jumped out at us. ...
While working on Scavenger this week, we came upon some demijohns for sale on Craigslist. They caught our eye but we couldn't quite figure out what to do with them. Today while browsing through our...
You may remember Courtenay's vintage Ortalion poster from her entry in last fall's Colors Contest. We certainly haven't forgotten it....
One of the many things we loved in AB Chao's House Tour was her use of clamp lights. Ever since we saw the simple, industrial-looking aluminum lamps in her lovely Louisiana home, they've been on ou...
We're really drawn to Molly Meng's use of mirrors in her House Call. The display of vintage "looking glasses" is an easy way to showcase a collection and reflect light -- especially in a small spac...
We literally gasped when we saw this dish in AB Chao's fantastic Modern + Old = MOLD house tour. We picked up an identical dish while flea marketing in Portland, and scoured the internet for more i...
Our House Tours and House Calls are so inspiring that sometimes we wish they weren't. Often we feel so inspired by something we've seen that we end up devoting way too much time to searching for so...
Eclectic. There were so many things we loved about last week's House Call: Diana Fayt. The San Francisco artist's home is warm, welcoming, comfortable. There's a really wonderful, eclectic mix of ...
It's the little things. When we visited Mia's houseboat a few weeks ago for our FSBO/House Tour: Mia's Floating Oasis, we were intrigued by the little touches. Like the bin pulls in her galley, wh...
