the art work is phenomenal (so glad that you didn't downsize there! personally, i really love the geometric horses) and your home is stunning, so beautifully put together and also so inviting. kudos!!

i'm all for eccentric and eclectic, but this is a little too dark, cluttered and hodge-podge for my personal tastes. seems like the owners enjoy this potpourri though, and really, that's all that m...

ikea kramsfors :) i don't know if they still have it in white, but there are many airy colors to choose from, the sofa is super comfy and sits a large group. i have the kramsfors in brown leather -...

... i'm so mad i just have to post again. because the absolute equivalent of how mad i am right now is how selfless, generous, decent and honest every nigerian i know is.

i can't fully express how disgusted i am by both gregory's post and the majority of the reader comments, but i'll stick to the issue at hand: there's so much difference between the spa...

instead of newspaper, use packing paper (the stuff your wrap your glassware in at ikea, or before moving) to clean glass - amazingly great streak free shine and no ink mess.

please? thank you :D

i disagree with 519wilson; i think a lot of it is very charming. but i unfortunately can't vote; you have six pix of your very charming living room but didn't show anything else.

i like what you showed a lot!! i don't feel like i can vote though; five pics were of your living/dining area.

amazing! i'm particularly impressed with how the spareness of your home is part of it's captivating charm! congrats

hmm... i think that something really bold -- like painting the walls an oak color with some bronze to it (like Prince in the RL collection) and the baseboards and trim in a color with black,brown, ...

a well made piece of furniture is always pretty timeless and elegant :) pink silk will look wonderful on your sofa! can't wait to see pix of the makeover
