Now, on with the pillow talk!

That's why today we are talking all about how to design the closet of your dreams using IKEA closets.

A few years ago, I discovered a product for reviving worn wood that I can't believe I didn't know about sooner.

It happens every morning.
I pull on my shoes, search around for my keys, and realize I didn't put on my earrings yet. And as surely as I know that the bus is always running late, I know that I can't find the pair of earrings I want to wear.

Whoever invented drawers was a genius. A compartment where you can throw your stuff inside, shut it, and forget about it? Sign me up. What the inventor of the drawer did forget to consider, however, was organization. Toss your stuff inside a drawer, and you're sure to have to dig to find it again.
