I work partially from home, and my cat and high-maintenance dog are very used to me being around. When I go away for a just a day or two, I get neighbors to come in and take care of them three time...
Add me to the list of fans. This reminds me of a shoot from the late lamented Domino. It's a gorgeous, personal, well-designed space -- nice and clean (that cleaning lady's totally worth it and you...
I have central heat plus a down comforter and my dog sleeps under the covers and breathes heavily -- she warms me up very nicely. Actually, she's such a weirdo that sometimes she breathes so heavil...
Yeah, gorgeous home -- it looks very comfortable and easy to live in while still being "nice." What I also like about this home tour is that the photos show whole rooms rather than lots of close up...
Great patio. It's hard to get a feel for the rooms and layout of the house as a whole with all the closeups. I guess one can just lean out over the patio for a nice shot, but it's hard within rooms...
You can get wood siding and wood windows from a building goods recycling store (like Re-Store), thus saving the material from a landfill, not using vinyl, not creating a new product, AND saving mon...
Not to freak you out or anything, but I heard on the news that if you get the flu at this time of year, you have H1N1. The "regular" season flu season doesn't start until January.
My cat can disappear for hours at a time, but whenever I take my camera out, he magically appears and is in every shot. This is not to say that I don't also seek out opportunities to capture his ad...
I agree with the person who offered to pay for a print version. Half the pages don't load for me (wireless -- could this be why? I don't usually have problems with sites loading, though), and I jus...
Chocolate brown for the bottom ones and either ecru or tangerine for the top ones -- depending on how funky you want it -- all in super high gloss; ideally auto-body paint.
You asked what to display on it to make it seem more modern. I agree with the person who said white glass vases.
Depending on the color scheme of the room, perhaps you could have a sm...
Yeah, I don't think I would buy anything with a baby on the cover. Conde Nast tried to swap Lucky for my Domino subscription and I changed it to Architectural Digest, which I now just put straight ...
What a lovely home, and I found the Laura's remarks to be right on about how to go about furnish a space.
I do wish the photos of the home tours overall showed more of the full/whole ...
Love the mirrored ones, and love la vava's suggestion about birds. I have six fireplaces in my house, and none works. Four have cast iron (Victorian) covers -- they were originally designed to have...
I was all set to say "absolutely the 40's" until I saw the hanging pendant lamp over the dining table, which made it the 50's for me. Everything else says "Kitchen of the Future, 1947 edition" -- p...
What a great job in the kitchen -- the real linoleum is in a gorgeous pattern, and the little details like the glass knobs really make it special. Fabulous, Kristie! Thanks for sharing your home!

I really love the painting with the peacocks and the rainbow! Somehow the modern and antique really works in Italy. Looks great.

my thoughts exactly -- was it through a skylight?

I love Retrospect features! This is another great one. You write really well.

Huh. I kinda like 'em. To each his own, I guess. I wonder why people are having such strong negative reactions. They look pretty nifty to me.
