I read Cottage Bluebird as well as many others, but I really like this little fish!

I think this is a lovely little place and the colors look real nice. The comment I have is on the photo of the three girls and the baby. There are two pictures of it - one on top of the radiator, hiding the AC unit and another on the wall next to a mirror. I just find it odd that there are two photos of the same thing (Or is it the same photo?) I just thought it was funny.

I love the story about the cousin painting your place - It makes your place even more interesting :)

Susan, I love it! I think the color of floor tiles and the wall colors go well together. The Mexican tiles are sometimes very hard to make work, if you allow the floor to take all of the color - you have been successful in my eyes.

Oh, I love the bathroom - just because it is funky and because it doesn't seem to be conventional in any way.

I thought about posting photos of my place, but was afraid because I am so new to the AT site that I wouldn't fit in or I wouldn't do it "right" & I can now that there is a right and wrong way for several of you. I'm proud of Susan for posting her photos. I genuinely like the way she has used color in her place.

I think the biggest problem I see about this, is that the bed could be very uncomfortable. All of those sections that are "cut" would have to be reinforced and it just seems like the bed would be rigid in some spots, mostly right in the middle of your back.

It is an ingenious idea, if it is comfortable. If it is for every day use, I would hate to have to make my bed from scratch each day.

It is wonderful to see a collection being used as art, rather than tucked away in boxes or shoved into every conceivable space - this looks like a well loved collection and makes the kitchen look bright and cheery. I love it! and I don't even care for Fiesta ware lol I'm not as keen on the backsplash, it is distracting somehow, but overall this is a lovely use of color.

Behr Premium Plus because Home Depot is open on Sundays

Love this comment in your description... That is how I pick my paint, too -- Is it available when I need it! lol This is a lovely place - the color is accented through-out the house but doesn't overpower. I do like your shoe rack in the entry! Thanks for letting us know you built it.
