    Home-style quiz

    global-style furnishings from Ethan Allen
    An Ethan Allen quiz paired me with a"green tea" style of furnishings.
     

    I really loved Pat's post last week about the Facebook quiz that tells you what your "house sign" is. Like Pat, the quiz told me -- a true suburban, walk-in-the-woods type of gal, that my ideal home is a lofty apartment on Park Avenue. This is for a person who gets butterflies in her stomach whenever she has to take the New Jersey Transit train into Manhattan. Not quite on the mark …Full Story

    It’s the battle of hubris this week on Design Star. No, technically, the six remaining designers haven’t been asked to design a room on the theme of "pride comes before a fall."
