The copper pipe bookshelf is awesome.

It's hard to tell without seeing the rest of the apartment, but I think gray fabric with a rough texture would make this couch look more modern. The dusty blue velveteen is nice but stodgy.

Reading comprehension... she's not going to paint, guys. And I like the wall paper. I think the print would be OK if it didn't match the bed spread. I'd pick an accent color, eith...

That pillowcase is sad. Did they just print out a picture of the actor, iron it on the pillow, and then charge $15 for it?

I love it the way it is. The wood is nice looking and matches your stuff. Would your landlord let you retile it in something simpler? I think that would make the biggest improvement without bein...

This Martha Stewart project is actually made from a fiberboard which is used for sound proofing. Perhaps you could try something like this to make sound board more attractive.

You only raised the mirror a little bit, but it actually really helps. The vases you put under it are beautiful.

That's a good point eaevansmd, and yes, I keep all my fancy stuff out sight. More because I don't use it every day and I don't want it to get banged up, but still.

This mantel looks pretty for everyday, you just need a little something to make it more "party." How about a paper bunting? it could be in the wedding colors, or say the couple's name, etc. ...

I love that Cecilia fabric.

Stain it dark. If that replacement drawer won't take a stain like everything else, maybe paint the drawers a color?

I love that painting (but it makes me hungry!) and I love that dresser. I don't like your nightstands. I think something the same color as your dresser, but modern, would be better. Perhaps some...

I have two movie posters, one of Kurosawa's Dreams, and an advance Beauty & the Beast poster. My grandfather used to have this poster hanging in the mud room, and I've thought about ...

Why would you keep your moving boxes? There's just a reminder of how you'll be moving again... I think that's the opposite of the point of this post, isn't it?

Did the Kassett box come in red at one time, or are those boxes actually orange?

This is great. I love those prints too.

I like the chair.
