Getting a little tired of seeing it EVERYWHERE, but still loving it in my own home.

Have to say I take issue with the Brooklyn Beer Kit. Apparently they have time to make a little video, but not type 3 lines to tell you what's in the kit. Is it an all-grain kit? Is it extract brewing? What's the batch size? Does it include carboy, air lock, hydrometer, etc? If not, that's not "everything to get you started on perfecting your own homebrew" as stated above.

Go to Northern Brewer, get a starter kit first unless you are buying for an experienced homebrewer. If you are, then get an all grain kit.

Ugh. When someone talks about something in the write up, can we please see it in the pictures!? Can barely see the chair, and where's this " tole chandelier spouting white lilies"?

Don't paint it! You'll be sad you did when you can't sell the house and end up living there much longer than expected.

I am shocked that someone paid $4K for that piece of art. Granted art is a very personal thing, but ick. $4000, really?

Great post. Love the after.
I feel like I live in a perpetual state of "during."

Something is troubling about Christina's closet. Oh, yes. It's the pants-less toddler.

Tricky color palette. Attempting to make this room something it's not--modern. The best you can do is to hire a professional.

A design consultant can interpret your vision with a level of sophistication the current space lacks. A couple hundred bucks for a color consult, space/furniture plan and clear direction will cost a heck of lot less than the time, energy and money you'll spend making more mistakes.

Haven't I seen this house before? I remember the skull coffee table and there was a potted orchid on it, but all the flowers had fallen off so just the stem was left. Seems like there were different pillows on the sofa--it was a lot more bright and fun. Where was that?

I see lots of "traces of white" besides the sofa. It's basically white and light wood tones, very neutral with colorful furnishings. It's nice but not at all what I was expecting based on the intro.
