I would like to NOT recommend the Tempurpedic if you wish your new mattress to last 10 years. After the initial period of acclimation, the mattress will be bliss but I have found the shelf life of ...
How about both white and yellow? Agree that there can be too much yellow but white often comes out sterile and cold. Like the idea of cabinets and appliances being white but how about making the wa...
Just experiment sagekitten85 - yellow is the way to go for dark gloomy rooms which is why it is so popular in Ireland and Scotland. Sounds like you need to go a LOT lighter. Try the Benjamin Moore ...
I would feel uncomfortable in this Swedish home - it's not the presence of color, but these particular colors. Also, the white here feels very sterile and cold probably because the photo was taken ...
Had a big, very dark kitchen with northern light and eastern morning light. I went with a BM buttery yellow strip for the walls and lower cabinets that bounced back far more light than a white, but...
If you are still checking back after all this time, why not try Boston Ivy on that foundation. This is the ivy associated with universities. Fenway Park is a chartreuse one and will lighten up the ...
Your transformed kitchen looks fine - bright and cheerful and I love the chalkboard touch. How clever to think of it! Nevertheless the original wood does NOT look like the ugly varnished plywood I ...
Love Splatgirl's taste and ingenuity - big ideas for big spaces but perfectly adaptable for the rest of us. Thanks for pointing us in her direction. Come back Splatgirl !
Lovely room and enormous improvement, but one tiny complaint-that window molding is chintzy and the windows break up the flow of the room, so why not just paint them out maybe in a shinier version ...
Why not try painting the walls to take advantage of the existing sofa material which appears to be in good shape before you spend a lot of money. The sofa is not ugly just innocuous - a burgundy pe...
Love the colours and how they don't draw attention to themselves but just enhance the atmosphere. Hope you're a winner and not that guy on the poster. A minor point: good choice in shade size - it ...
Love the room and the taupe, but it does seem a little too safe - maybe make those closets a lighter taupe or add white or a lighter taupe to the recessed areas. How about switching the rug for som...

NEVER had a pleasant or even neutral experience ordering from these folks.
Those are some powerfully ugly colors you have to work with - how about some eggplant on the walls and towels?

Love the way the chair is close to the steps which are close to the sidewalk which might mean that neighbours actually interact.
Ditto on Janel's comment about melding disparate elements, but why black cords?
Scaled down would make lovely earrings.

Paul, any chance you can tell us from where you got the table legs?

Boring? No Serene? Yes. Beautiful? Absolutely!
Gorgeous -just the right amount of adventure and restraint. Please tell us the colours - please, please,please.
