Kitchen remodels are among the most arduous and invasive (not to mention expensive) projects you can do in your home. You might have a spare bedroom, a second bathroom, or somewhere else to stash your TV while you renovate. But chances are, you don’t have a second kitchen to use while yours is out of […]
Bookshelves are among the most utilitarian pieces of furniture in the home. By and large, they’re designed to do one thing, and one thing only: shelve books.

Above all else, patio furniture needs to be weather proof. If it isn’t, no matter how good it looks or how comfortable it is, it isn’t going to last you very long. But unfortunately that means that all too often people end up getting either super utilitarian furniture that doesn’t look so great, or attractive […]
It’s hard to find good TV trays. Many are made of cheap plastic, cheap metal, or a generic-finished wood, which makes it difficult to find one that looks like real furniture.
