That apartment makes me sick.....but only because I'm jealous! I couldn't afford to live in Williamsburg when I lived in Brooklyn, so I had to settle for Buschwick.
Hate to complain, and it may not be the place for it, but I'm having problems getting this episode through iTunes. Downloading it through the website directly is prooving impossible too.
Sometimes I have difficulty with this also. Try accessing it through you tube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=phl09AmO6Bo
That might make it easier for you.
This might be a good use for those old lace tablecloths that get too stained to really use on the table. Once the paint dries you could re-use it I think.
who wrote F the PO-LACE?? haha, that is too funny! Another great episode and a great idea, I have never thought of that! loved the shot of you up against the police car! verrrrry classy!
I love the lace. It's hard to find a second hand lace and i like lace a lot so it would be great to learn to make it. I found this great website. I hope you like it. http://gwydir.demon.co.uk/jo/lace/index.htm
this was an AMAZING episode! i love the lace idea, gonna try that asap, and that chicks house was like my dream house! shes so lucky to have all those good finds! its not to easy to get a hold all those old bottles and luggage like that. ugh jealous! ! ! ;)
I love the lace idea! My mom did it to all her metal patio chairs last summer and it looks really cool. I also once saw it on a vinyl record cuff bracelet and loved it.
I've been dying to try this out. Thanks for the reminder. I'll probably end up going on a graffiti lace craze just because it looks SO COOL. Thanks again Meg. Keep'em coming!
Hi - i have been in love with threadbangers and Decor it yourself for a while now and i have seen this spray paint technique a couple of times, do you use a special type of spray paint?
I've watched in NYC. Now I'm watching from L.A.; I've got set decorators out here tuning in. My "The Mars Volta"-looking younger brothers revealed they had been watching... and everyone LOVES the show. Congratulations and keep up the quality work and the positive vibe. You rock!
spray paint doesn't seem very environmental friendly. Airbrushing is better, but since many people don't have the equipment, I would suggest perhaps sponging on a fabric paint--much better to breath in too. Definitely don't spray paint in enclosed areas!!!
Meg, I really loved the graffiti lace and seeing all the different things that you did with it really sparked some more ideas in my head for what could be fun to do too! Thanks so much :D
This week, we use a cool technique and create graffiti lace. From this we make a tablecloth, dress, scarf and more. We take a peek into one of the loveliest homes in Brooklyn and have a fun new contest for all you green nesters out there.
Great episode Meg!! I love the graffiti lace. Keep up the good work. :)
Killer episode!
That lace turned out so pretty, yet totally cool. Ah, great idea.
Meg, the fabric turned out beautiful! And the New York Nest part was really cool to see. That girl's house is so cool.
I LOVE the lace idea!!
I think i might try that but on my door:)
yes yes, good idea.
that would look so cool on a door!!!!
This is an awesome idea!

F THE PO-LACE
Paper dolies work welltoo. I haven't done this since Brownies. Everything old is new again!
This might be a good use for those old lace tablecloths that get too stained to really use on the table. Once the paint dries you could re-use it I think.
Great espisode! i loved the project and i also loved that super cute apartment!! Just fills us with inspiration. Thanks!

i do that lace thing on my walls!
love the show.
love the tips.
speaking of, do you have any tips on ways to unclog a drain, without the use of toxic chemicals?
i live in an apartment in a pretty old building with pipes that have a hard time handling two girls with hair, if ya know what i mean.
thanks!
white vinegar to the rescue again. Remember the volcanoes you made in jr. high science? Same rules apply.
Add baking soda to the drain and then add your white vinegar. Allow to sit for about 30 minutes before using. Then flush the drain.
I haven't tried this myself, but have read many-a-place that it works.
HTH!
I love your dress !!!!
And I so wanna try that lace pattern thing! it really looks nice!
Good luck with the show ! I love it

Haha. Hilarious. I love the lace and apartment.
My mom apparently did this lace technique to the hood of a car she had when she was a teenager. :D

Luv ya guys

Totally badass!
I have a BUNCH on lace that I don't know what to use it for XDD
Now I can use it for this >:D
^_^ I totally did the graffiti lace thing a couple of months ago! Great minds think alike. Didn't think to do it on a shirt, though. Great ep.
I've watched in NYC. Now I'm watching from L.A.; I've got set decorators out here tuning in. My "The Mars Volta"-looking younger brothers revealed they had been watching... and everyone LOVES the show. Congratulations and keep up the quality work and the positive vibe. You rock!
I love the lace used as a table cloth. As a guy, I don't think I could pull it off as a shirt :(
I second KozzmaMonsoon's question about eco-friendly uncloggers! And thanks for the vinegar toilet bowl cleaner tip. Bless you!
OH! I also loved the mirror frame made into cork board that was in her apartment. Beautiful!
Meg, I love that dress. I've been looking for one similar. Where did you get it?
Glad to see the lace idea in action. I've been wanting to try it.
It's a vintage frock from my grandmother. Try ebay or etsy or vintage shops for similar look. thanks!
I also wounder what kind of spray paint you use and where you get it?
spray paint doesn't seem very environmental friendly. Airbrushing is better, but since many people don't have the equipment, I would suggest perhaps sponging on a fabric paint--much better to breath in too. Definitely don't spray paint in enclosed areas!!!
Awesome! I have to try this on my plain tanks. Thanks for the great idea!
wow what a wonderful idea. and i love your dress.
D.I.Y. Y? because we love you!

That was very cool. I love the idea. Kudos to whomever thought this up.
