I picked foreign country. But the reality is closer to the staycation. I haven't been outside the country in almost 10 years. I need to change that soon! The beach house/cabin sound...

Get a pair of leg warmers and a gigantic boom box, install a barre on one wall, and just go with it! In all seriousness, I would probably look into window film. I saw quite a few styl...

It's stunning (especially that bathroom), but I think if I lived here, I would always feel a little weird about it. I think I just need my house to look like a house. This would be ...

The off-black is much better on the fireplace than that blue... though I bet the blue would look great on a wall, if there's any paint left over. Nice job!

I'm undecided on the color but I agree that this is a great idea and much better than just tossing out the rug.

Are the curtains making the walls look more blue than plum, or is it just my monitor (or the camera)? It's not quite doing it for me, but I'm going to assume it looks a lot better in p...

That's beautiful. I love the new paint color too- really complements all the new greenery out front. I just bought a condo with a little yard and now you've inspired me to do something with it ot...

There's no way I'd want one for myself or anything, but it's pretty cool to look at.

It can get even kitschier than that. I grew up in AZ and my grandfather lived in Sun City, and I remember some houses in his neighborhood having green gravel (which I think was supposed to mimic g...

Bad Kitty, what did you do?

The yellow isn't my style but you've done a great job here pulling everything together and it looks well-proportioned for the size of the apartment (not too much stuff and not too little). I hones...

I used to have one or two of those Smokey posters, including (I think?) that wildflower one. If you like nature-themed posters, the National Park Service puts out several with designs ...

I like it. I'd love to try it with the Sunday comics pages.

I think I'd go with Rob's storage box idea, or just store books up there. I don't know if I'd bother trying to fill it in with decorative stuff. I do like the antique globe idea but then you'd ha...

I want that bedroom.

I like the last bedroom best.... the middle one is a little too somber for me and I'm not sure about the stripes in the first one. But all three of them are very serene and look like nice places f...

I love the fire truck. My cat probably wouldn't be that interested in these, though. There seems to be some kind of cat rule that decrees that the elaborate and/or pricey toys are the ones that a...

I like it. I agree with the people who said it will work best if the rest of the decor is kept simple.

The second photo makes me a little anxious for some reason... all those words on that bright background. I love the first photo, though.

I didn't find the responses grumpy at all- I've been wondering some of the same things others have wondered, especially about the heat melting the glue. I do think it's pretty to look at, though.
