...Wow, now I'm feeling a little dissed here...<br /><br />I left a comment on the AT post (under this name), and I certainly wasn't trying to be a "twat," "butt head," "wannabe," "dork," "superior a**hole," etc. etc.<br /><br />I agree that many of the other comments took on an unpleasant tone, and most were irritatingly off-topic. However, I really do try to be tactful and respect that other community members have feelings. <br /><br />Anyway, I thought your cabinet was really cute with the floral fabric, and even cuter in the more recent picture you posted. I hope you didn't interpret my comment as nasty, or as a put-down!<br /><br />I know how you feel though- one of the very first comments I got on my blog was "STUPID." It just about destroyed my confidence, but I'm realizing there are just a lot of hateful people out there!Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06225067958661933819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18972312.post-32024364694878906142009-06-15T14:03:51.460-04:002009-06-15T14:03:51.460-04:00What is it with AT readers?

We KNOW what great taste you have, Claire, and I really enjoy the novel ways you've found to work lovely pieces of fabric into your charming home.<br /><br />As for music-storing "suggestions," I suppose we could all just buy some form of e-book device and completely eliminate all of our pesky actual books from the shelves, too. Not the point, people!!<br /><br />I'm not impressed with AT readers. They are the only ones who should feel "shamed".Johanna Maskohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16830872060710777449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18972312.post-78783338561439696112009-06-11T08:33:27.407-04:002009-06-11T08:33:27.407-04:00I don't even read Apartment Therapy because th...I don't even read Apartment Therapy because the comments are so mean. People can be so rude when they're anonymous. I think your cabinet looks great (I love the Marimekko fabric!) and I think you're handling this with good humour & grace.

Personally I think the editors on AT have much better taste than many of their readers (at least the ones who seem to think their opinion is worthy of posting comments) - so stick with the compliment of being asked and ignore the wannabes in the comments! <br /><br />At least AT asked before posting yours, last person wasn't asked just appeared on there...! <br /><br />I liked the person who thought that your cd collection would say more about you than a piece of fabric....clearly that person's not so into crafts - i'm pretty sure fabric says more about me than my cds!!Ashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04534758548055118791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18972312.post-74510462698105193352009-06-11T02:52:31.330-04:002009-06-11T02:52:31.330-04:00Geeezzz I just went and had a look out of curiosit...Geeezzz I just went and had a look out of curiosity what people had said - what a bunch of twats...<br /><br />I would like to see any of those people make something like that - i bet they couldn't even find there own head as it was probably so far up there...... anyway!!<br /><br />I think it is an awesome idea!
