If caminante's method doesn't work, I would do the following: 1) Fix up your bedroom to be your sanctuary 2) Collect photos and ideas for an eventual place of your own (a style f...

#3: what is that CHAIR?! Please, someone tell us!

Brush HER, I meant! :)

Aside from the black-haired-dog issue, I would go for a creamy-colored rug with some texture (I am tempted to say shag rug, but as I already survived the '70's once…) which would make a soft...

Not into the speed or "staging" part of this. Tidying up is always worthwhile, and - alas - not speedy. Much prefer the slow pleasures of watching a home, not a stage, develop…

BTW, in photo #5, the white Eames chair (LCW) has the back piece put on upside down! Is this a badly-done knock-off, or a badly put together "real thing"?? No credits so don't know whe...

Another vote for white brick - I have seen it, and remembered it fondly, in another 50's CA house - always, always loved it. Very fresh. And then I'd put a light-to-medium gray rug on the floor - y...

UGH! Creeeeeee-py!

The "coffee" (beer?) table is gorgeous. Don't watch TV, was it a DIY? Bravo!

Eh. Nice set. Very trendy, blah blah blah (shabby chic in a "multi-million dollar home" to quote the owners - huh??!). Bet they're putting it on the market soon; with such an oversize...

Umm… so, where's the 2nd arm?? I don't see it… Well, to be honest, these are all a bit stiff and static. Very designer-y. The seating is mostly rather wide-set, as if you...

LovelyDarkandDeep - THANK YOU! Just came checking to see if there was an answer about the whites! The link is very useful, indeed; just printed it to have on hand. The BM Super White s...

Marmol Radziner ROCKS! What's half a million for something that looks like a million bucks?

There's nothing like giving a bottle of wine - save (stylishly, of course), drink, re-gift … no prob. Around here, this is the norm, and what a blessing. I mean, I love dogs, bu...

Beautiful bones on this house. Leave it white and black, and put in a glossy red door, as others have said. Very classic, very chic. I'd remove the over-the-door planters entirely; th...

Makes me feel pretty darn good about … my (humble) apartment! Eeks, indeed!

This is to die for… Two questions, both about BM "Super White" paint color: 1) Can you tell us what sort of white this is? Does it have ochre mixed in, blue underto...

The perfect balance of gutsy and discreet - simply divine. THIS is what makes me addicted to AT! Go go go!!! :)

Love the yellow walls! Introducing a third color, something contrasting, in a small dose, and tiny bits of other colors will take away the "catalog" feel of the room. I would also con...

No way! The oven is for producing my famous brownies! :)
