monika1, do tell, where is this summer hotel? i'm planning a trip for next spring/summer and it sounds amazing!

i feel like i am entering a story when i look through these photos. in particular i love the pendant lamps, a perfect mix of modern and traditional detail. your home is beautiful and inviting.

It just looks messy to me. Too much clutter.

i would go with a nice white...keep it very clean and simple looking. maybe replace that billowy curtain with blinds?

that is a trend i really don't like. while i find this bedroom aesthetically pleasing, it's just not something i would want in my bedroom.

I really love that Jasper sofa, thanks for the tip.

k_darling, i was thinking the same thing. i love it! i'm moving to a cold climate and am feeling these hues might brighten my mood.

sometimes i hate working in a hospital. seems that a lot of sinks have been replaced with purell dispensers that gross me out! that stuff makes my hands feel terrible.

I can't believe there is not an Austin site yet! AUSTIN!

Lincoln and Zak. I really like the color they chose for the alcove area. Now I know I have been living in NYC for too long, I'm looking at this space and thinking it's huge!

i just want to curl up on your couch and read a book. there are so many individual components that i love (especially the owls, bedroom dresser, blue door) and together it is eclectic and beautiful...

850 square feet! And it's still being called "Smallest/Coolest"? You have got to be kidding me.

really, really nice. what a pretty picture to wake up to.

I would also encourage CraigsList...I've picked up my (4) Eiffel chairs and my zero table from DWR--both in amazing, new near condition, $800 for everything. I agree with Monika1, serendipity is a ...

i used this a couple of months ago at a mall in new jersey, it was very exciting and worked like a charm.

i just love that pop of red. beautiful.

oh my, just beautiful! you had me with the photo of the dovetail joinery.
