Also, perhaps look for an L shaped couch so that your couch can face both the fireplace and the t.v. It will look better if the couch faces the tv

I am looking forward to the responses to this question, I have the same problem!

What is the name of the green paint color? I love it!

I am learning how to DIY to decorate my house. Instead of buying a new dresser for my daughter I bought an old one of Kijiji (our version of craigslist) that was well built and ugly. But a coat of white paint it looks great and will hopefully last for years!

I use a large purse with a wipe-able pad in it for diaper changes. Works well.

I start with christmas decorations and camping supplies. They are pretty much packed anyways and it feels nice to have a big pile of "packed things" to add to. Then I go on to the rarely used kitchen tools and decorations, off season coats etc.

I am going to advise against any grey tones. We have wood trim and a lot of wood in our house, and the muted grey tones that look so fabulous in modern homes look dirty and washed out next to wood.

I love love love white, but if you want color I would advise earthtones or yellows.

Although I think if you paint the walls white the wood would really stand out and you can add some cool colorful art and accessories

I have to say I absolutely love white cabinets. But I think that adding some crown molding to the top of your cabinets would make them look a lot more expensive. You could build your cabinets up to the ceiling then add crown molding for a high end look.

To get rid of weeds in interlocking stone or cracks in pavement: pour on the salt! (Don't do this on the lawn or in your garden or you will have a brown spot)

I like the vanity. I think it would look beautiful in a spa inspired bathroom. Just replace the counter top with something more modern. If you have room, two raised bowl sinks would look really sharp
