I second every one else, paint out those stripes, have your art simarlarly laid out to the first time but hung lower down, and put the stripy rug back, declutter a little, but not too much.

I think it all depends on the rest of your furniture... These shades can go with anything and everything, you can do the obvious and go 50's atomic space age styles, which i would do i...

i'm with Doppelganger, I think they look awesome as they are. Especially in the bedroom, they remind of modernist architecture when they put in slashed windows in unexpected places. I think ...

That first room does look very dated, and the third room is grandiose in the extreme, but the middle room is delightful. The proportions and colours are beautiful, and it looks really livable. It i...

I love, love, love, the Warhol kitchen!! I don't think you'd necessarily even have to laminate it like fong does, if you need to be able reverse it. You could even just tack them on, because...

Sarah -The wicker chairs are from a middling crate and barrel-ish type store here in NZ, but i imagine they are of chinese manufacture so someone should be doing them over there. Thank...

peripatetic19- great name, i got that stained old acrylic rug at our equivalent of wal-mart :)

Woah, calm down peoples!! I thought SeanG put it very well and nicely and respectfully. And I have to admit it was rather close to the bone. It makes me wonder what our interiors reall...

Wow Jmac I love your system, incredibly sleek

Hi Iag, I could pull the couch in, but then i'd be nose to nose and knee to knee with the people in the swivel chairs!!!

Actually Sparklehorse is an indie guitar band. And nope, I didn't mean insane in a positive way. And it is not remotely homophobic to detest such a gross liberace-like aesthetic, so do...

Ha, heres me talking about going to target, I don't even live in the US!!

Oh and make some art, or get stylish coordinated, arty, posters for your walls.

Safety pin this $32 dollar bed spread to the cushions and paint the wood bright orange.

Oh. My. God. I never use this phrase, but that website is the insanest thing I have ever seen.

Wow it is really fugly, I was going to say the fairy lights thing too, but I think you'd need heaps to cover the nasty cheapness of that gilt.

I want it! (drool)

I absolutely love/hate the mustard ottoman, who would've thought it would work so well with the sleek orange/red sofa and the grey wall. I love pieces like that, when you first see the...

I always found Ty annoying, but kinda sweet too. However I have detested Extreme Makeover ever since they started completely bowling houses down and putting up grotesque McMansions, the avera...
