What a lovely home, from top to bottom. I'm in love with the rug on your stairs, can you tell us a little about it. Please, pretty please!

Kudos to you! what amazing pieces of homemade furniture, the bench and the stools in your bar area are works of art. It's inspiring to see a couple that is willing to take a risk and learn along the way as they create "their" perfect home. Thank you for sharing your home and work with all of us. I was really sad to see so many negative comments along with the post. Folks, remember it's fun to see different points of view when it comes to home decor.

I love the pop of color in your dining nook, plus the mix of vintage and modern throughout your space. Kudos for doing the work yourself, I know how hard it is to find the time for that.

Ikea makes a terrific set, similar in feel to the marble set featured in the post. I use the Ikea set when company comes over, plus I pair them with my tiny vintage silver spoons.

the colors are beyond amazing. nice job all around. What kitchen clutter? azza has her pantry items on a kitchen island/cabinet, dry goods and other kitchen items are well organized. most nyc dwellers don't have the luxury of a pantry...kudos on a great place.

Our daughter j, is 16 months and we still use the changing table. It really depends on the type of table you purchase, we have the stokke care changing table. our daughter is able to face us as we change her because of the direction of the table. the table can be adjusted for your height as well.
...good luck and have fun

The space is cool looking but not practical for a any great length of time. If they are planing of using the space for their child as he or she get older maybe some plexiglass sliding doors or temp walls would provide a safety barrier but still leave the space feeling open.
good luck

I like the use of art in the kitchen. the look of the kitchen has an european/ new england flavor to it. Well done

i like the the use of color. the island is charming...but I have to agree with some of the other people- the decor is a bit toooo ikea heavy.
