I was gushing over the icy blue countertops with light wood in this post yesterday. I think it's a gorgeous combo and could be done with simple laminate.
I think the current colors work very well. The warm taupey grey that is near the piano seems like an ideal neutral. I disagree with the advice to go with a green-based grey and green is the complem...
I usually have my doubts about no-sew shortcuts, but your closeup looks really good! Nice work. I've used Unique Stitch fabric glue, which may be easier to remove if needed. When I attached grosgra...
This would only work if the sofa is not too deep and cushy. It can be very uncomfortable to eat while sitting on something that's too soft. I agree with mirandabee, the round table makes no sense i...
The boxed-in windows look cool and also shade from the heat of the sun. But I'll bet that yellow paint still creates a nice glow inside! Smart. The icy blue countertop looks very chic with the ligh...
I'm almost done replacing all my plastic with the refrigerator dishes. Mind you, this stuff is not cheap unless you're lucky enough to happen across it at a rummage sale. The cooler patterns go sky...

Bought this last month with my Borders coupon! I've found the photos more useful and inspiring than the text.
Given it's the international symbol for "poison," I don't think I'd want it on my tap. Not such a good idea for resale, either. ;)
