Zhang Biqing, an obviously wealthy Chinese businessman, has built what looks like a small oasis in the sky. It has rocks placed to look like a small mountain, dense greenery and of course a swimming pool....

Have you seen the new HGTV series Flea Market Flip? It's quite addicting and it really gets me motivated to go out and get some deals and transform them into beautiful unique pieces for my condo. So just when I start thinking which flea market I should go check out, my husband shows me my pile of crafts from Michaels that I was supposed to turn into decorative pieces that is just taking up...
Now if you don't already know, you should be kind and grateful to your mom everyday! But let's face it, we just don't have the kind of cash to be lavishing her with nice gifts everyday.

It does nothing to inspire you to be a better chef and cook more (yea sure that's the reason you don't cook). Well anyways, it is out of date and no matter how hard you scrub, it's not shiny. A total redo...

Monday May I have that sleek new pub style dining set for my condo? Now just because we live in a condo that may not be the largest does not mean that we don't like to entertain. And by entertain we mean having more than one person over for dinner. With many condos only offering a combined living and dining area of 16 feet by 10 feet and many even smaller. How does the condo owner...
Monday May I edition Monday may I add plants in my condo? They not only look great but boy do they have some added benefits! Did you know that they can clinically reduce stress, fight colds (which is great as I currently have one), remove airborne contaminants, and even relieve headaches? That is awesome, who knew a simple plant could do all those things! With a wide...
