[WHO GIVES A SHIT?] What Do You Splurge On?

I'm def very much in the hi/low camp when it comes to decorating (mixing nicer pieces with less expensive pieces), though aren't we all? I mean, unless you're super, duper, mega, rich (in which case, HELLO! Let's be besties and take trips to the Amalfi Coast together!) then you probs do the same thing in your place.

I mean, I've got shit from ABC Carpet AND Ikea. Tarjay completes me, but also I love my Frette robe like it's a family member.

So, if you're not a bazillionaire, what do you think is worth splurging on in your home?

[MAKE EM] Souvenir Travel Boxes

I'm immeds stealing this idea from November's Country Living mag. Well, at least the next time I take a trip.

I mean, how adorbs are these little boxes?

The basic idea is that you cut out a map in the shape of the place you visited, print out a pretty label, and then slap it all on cute little box. You can then use the box to keep all the shit you collected on your trip and don't know what to do with cause you think scrapbooking is totally ghey.

Unfortunately, anyone who's been guilted into using a CFL light bulb in their home knows that it instantly gives your place all the sexy lighting qualities of a supermarket.

Also, it takes the damn things f-o-r-e-v-e-r to power up to their full brightness level, which makes them useless if you're trying to go down the basement steps without tripping and dying.

Nate Show Now Featuring Totally Annoying Children

You now how sometimes you really wanna break up with someone, but you're just way too much of a pussy to actually do it? So instead you just start acting like an asshole and trying to sabotage shit in the hopes that the other person will just get so frustrated that they'll break up with you? Anyone? Just me?

Anyway, at this point it honestly almost seems like that's what's going on with the Nate Show. I mean, are they just purposely trying to make this so bad, Big O will just have no choice but to go ahead and pull the plug? Cause otherwise, how the fuck did 20 people sit around a table during a production meeting and decide to put on this snotty 11-year-old "fashion designer"?? How?
