I would consider painting the rail the same color as the main body of your walls. Right now, the rail is really chopping your room off. I'm not opposed to the two-tone concept, but having that st...
Although the picture you have above the fireplace is really cute, I agree that this is the natural location for the TV. I would buy or make a wood frame to fit over the TV (it should be thicker th...
i think the pictures are confusing me but... it seems like there's enough space in the toilet room for the sink and everything. can you use the part on your plan labelled "bathroom" as a dressing ...
Anusha73, good point. If you like the lighting that you get with your current fixture, why not go with super small pin lights that give you multiple points of light. You could hang them in a circ...
I would turn your desk 90 degrees to be under the window, so that your chair doesn't bump in to the end table. Plus I would hate to see your desk block part of the fireplace. And I would put the ...

Thanks for the fabric link- they have great stuff!
I like the idea of flanking the sofa with the lamps you have. I would look in to different shades for them, though. The ones you have now are a bit BRIGHT- perhaps an off white or cream would war...
Careen, me too! Recently I was cat sitting for friends and was so bothered by their bedroom/den that I drew up a furniture plan. They were totally wasting useable space. At first I was reluctant...
Edwin-Switzerland is SO right. It looks like a very small room, but if it's possible I highly recommend allowing your bed to stand alone on a wall and the dresser on another. Right now, the dress...
Fabio- very bold color choice! I like. Look at how the yellow looks next to the white trim. CRISP! Then compare it to the yellow next to your couch. CLASH!
I see two options: ke...
I've had the Dexter couch for 3 years now. We bought it right out of college, so Lazy Boy's financing and delivery was an attractive deal. Although I wouldn't buy this couch again (for aesthetic ...
