Definitely allowed! My dog snuggles on the couch and sleeps on my bed (and in). I have a slipcovered couch and duvet covers so I can wash everything as frequently as needed. Even if I didn't let...

I think it's lovely! I'd like to see a little more color - perhaps dye the papers softly, or have a background wall color... Noticed that her uses tacks alone in some places to add detail and vari...

I succumbed to my first beige WTW carpet this year in a new apartment I otherwise love - I know how you feel! I ended up painting some walls richer colors, which draw the eye up from the carpet, a...

My mom did this years ago in her tiny gallery kitchen and its great! It doesn't require more cleaning than any other surface, and definitely help open up the space, even with the darker color pale...

These are the best tips for holidays with family - thank you! I've kicked myself many times in the past, realizing too late that I wished I had asked more questions, or been more open sharing... So...
