Mirror Mirror On The Wall :: A Decorating Solution

Mirrors are your best friend. Mickey Rourke's best friend is a shroud over the mirror. But you, my friend, will find that mirrors are freaking awesome. Awesome like seeing Luke Perry naked in that episode of "Oz" when he was going to church. They are a fantastic investment, and you can usually pick them up cheap of Craigslist or at a thrift store.

So with list in hand, go to the stores. Oh, looky here, you found a gorgeous sofa for a great price! "Where's my credit card??" [ . . . ]

Alycia Wicker :: Get Over Yourself (Justa Chat between Two Designers)

I was waiting for my potential client to arrive at their house. Seems someone else was waiting for them, too. This man seemed okay at first. When he started to open his mouth, I knew what I was dealing with. He was a legend in his own mind. [ . . . ]

Alycia Wicker :: The Moxie of Interior Design (aka Legos and White Zombie)

"That's when I realized the power of design and the power of moxie. I went my own way. I never knew if my design would be a hit, but going boldly into a different design path, one that hasn't been seen a thousand times over I found what true interior design moxie is. By thinking outside of the box, getting excited about the design, and inspiring people to dream what is possible -- I found me. Since then, I haven't designed any more macabre designs, but I still think of that project from time to time. It reminds me to design in a way that makes people think. It reminds me to design for people. People who would rather keep it real, and not just go with what hoity-toity designers say is good." [ . . . ]

    Barefoot Floor :: Stack the Deck in Your Favor . . .

    Many homeowners prefer, or default to, wooden decking. But my dears, we are living in the age of options. You can build a deck out of ginger ale bottles, if you want to, though we recommend sticking with the industry favorites: wooden decking, composite decking, plastic decking, or aluminum decking. All these products featured here are the highest ranked by Consumer Reports, and they hold up to client testimonies and our expertise. [ . . . ]

    Building Moxie Gets a Reader Question :: The Ten Essential Tools for Homeowners

    But as I got to thinking about it; 20 tools, hmmmm . . . not easy. There are many tools for many jobs, and you ALWAYS want the right tool for the (right) job . . . or so they say — something like that. I mean — homeownership requires lots and lots of, well . . . tools. And heck, I’d then have to say — take that 20 and multiply it by 20, and then maybe — that’s about the number of tools that I, as a hi-functioning homeowner, just could not . . . live without.
