Love, could you give the source for the kitchen tile? It's wonderful!

I liked the vintage floor tile before, and it doesn't seem that different either.

I just found an amazing vintage persian rug (9 by 12) for $35. I arranged a time to pick it up, but the seller called me later to say someone bought it before me. ERRR. I should have asked for time off work and just driven to get it then.

Also the after tax piece of it makes a big difference. Do people generally do that after taxes, saving for retirment, and healthcare? Those items are taken out pre-tax for me.

I hope it encourages people to respect past design, not just rip out any colored bathrooms of metal kitchen kitchen cabinets for blah.

Where is that mirror from? It's so awesome. Love your space, I dig the greyish blue, yellow, black color scheme and the wood dresser adds great warmth.

I have the same coffee table with the woven drawer. Did you refinish it? I'm wondering how to tackle the project.

What is apartment therapy doing? Stop showing up before and afters where some original mid-century charm is ruined for a generic look. I don't think we should be beholden to a given time period or style, but these before and afters seem to only be one note typical blahs that destroy charecter.

This is why I dislike "Keep Calm and Carry On," it is indicative of apathy. http://stfuhypocrisy.tumblr.com/post/24400674269/image-keep-calm-and-carry-on-no-thanks-id

Can anyone speak to the quality of that bookshelf? It's so pretty, but I never know what to expect with Ikea's quality.

An addition, the biggest problem I've been having with city life is the materialism and aspirational lifestyles. I feel like it's easy to become fixated on money and status. There's less of a difference in small towns, whereas in cities the gap between the rich and the poor, and the pressure to go to the newest place/etc can be oppressive.


10 Reasons I Love Living in a Small Town
7/4/12 6:59 PM

The level of community in some small towns is hard to beat. I've lived in several cities including NYC, and never felt the same about the daily interaction as I got from my small town. Granted, Western MA has many of the amenities of cities like culture, restaurants, etc. In my experience, there's more interaction across racial/class lines in small towns, because everyone is smushed together. While NYC is so diverse, it felt stratified to me in a way that my hometown never did.

For your "majorly in need of renovation house" check out retrorenovation.com. It's a great site about updating mid-century homes without destroying all the character and value.
