I'm not sure I agree that #2 is modern or #5 is rustic, but I sure do like the other three, especially #4. Our current decor is not modern rustic, but I love it.

I love #3, #5, and #8 - so beautiful!

We have a pair of Alias Spaghetti Chairs and a pair of Eames plywood chairs, and I love them both. Pairs are great. And I really like triptyches of mirrors or art, although I don't actually own a...

You guys are great - thanks for all the positive feedback! It's interesting to me that Gregory doesn't see much of a difference - to me, it's dramatic, but then again, I've been obsessing about it...

To me, this is a great example not of how to style a home, but of how to style a home for photography. Personally, if I went to either a party or an open house that looked like the after shots, I ...

I'm squarely in the no-clutter camp - I absolutely cannot stand to have bits of paper floating around my house. The only thing I keep is letters, and those are stored in a box. And the only print...

Whoa - barf? Really? I LOVE that Thomas Paul pillow with the bird on it - and it would look great in my living room. In researching where to buy that pillow, I fell in love with another one of h...

I love white dishes and can't imagine ever having anything but. I don't think it's because I'm so mature (or so unvivacious, for that matter), I just think they make the food look so beautiful. D...

I understand what you both mean about cliche - down here in LA, it seems like every new house in Venice looks exactly like this. Nonetheless, I'd live there in a heartbeat! I love all the wood in...

Haha Thierrys - I read your comment as "venal" and was puzzled. =)

Photo #1 perfectly captures the feeling I have about Thanksgiving - that it is a celebration of family, home, warmth, and good food. I like the pretty tabelscapes too, but in the end they're not w...

Love #1 - GORGEOUS!

Update - painting started today and I'm so excited! @hotglueink and halebale6 - Thanks for your interest! I have email you both the details. If anyone else is interested,...

I love the decor in #4 (I actually already had that picture in my inspiration file). Not only is it beautiful and clean, but it is also low enough not to preclude cross-table conversation.

We're having 14 to Thanksgiving and I'm definitely doing placecards. I dislike that feeling at large sit-down dinners where everyone is kind of milling around and eyeing each other, not knowing wh...

@tpgirl - I think it's a little much to expect a designer to be able to design (or a homeowner to be able to buy) a chair that would be comfortable for people of all sizes, body types, and physical...

@Astur - Pottery Barn has beautiful unscented candles in white and ivory. Ikea also has great ones (and a lot cheaper).

I'm not big on objets, but those white ceramic pinecones really are beautiful. The acorns on their website are gorgeous too!

Thievery Corporation, Madeleine Peyroux, Zero 7, Nina Simone, Charles Mingus, Pink Martini, Nouvelle Vague, Joao Gilberto, Cassandra Wilson...and of course Ella and Billie never disappoint!

And @Daily Nuance - Most architects know little to nothing about keeping buildings from falling down on you. That's not their job. Talk to a structural engineer for that.
