Poochie Shoe Daydreams's Profile

Not to detract from their home, but I think I expected a lot more books as well. Maybe it's because I have a library room of my own, it kind of sets the bar for me. Just to share - this is an old post but these have pics of our room - http://shoedaydreams.blogspot.com/2008/08/curl-up-with-good-book.html

Totally avoiding politics this year!!!

Neither. I pick my room colors on the overall feeling I want to create for the room. And I select art because I love it. There are colors I gravitate towards for my home so they all end up working. It peeves me to select art based on the room. Same thing for framing (which I'm passionate about). You don't pick a frame for the room, you pick it to complement the art.

My living room, dining room and kitchen are separate spaces but they have a great flow. I like the kitchen to be a bit hidden. It can be chaos in there! The idea of master bedroom as media isn't a surprise... as media is mobile (hello, iPad!), every room is a media room.

My house lives great... and it's 112+ years old.

We have two black storage cubes from Pottery Barn as our coffee table. This allows us to move them around to suit either ends of the seating space and store items needed there like blankets and lap desks.

We have cats and I hate to dust, so we keep them pretty clear (they're small-ish anyways). One has a Waterford bowl and the other has coasters. That's it, unless it's an item in immediate use such as a remote or glass. But those things are only temporary and are put away when we get up.

Mine is probably more warm than cool We have dark green walls and a red patterned quilt. Very cosy.

Thanks for featuring me!

As onomatopoeias says, you can adjust the height of the shelves for boots. I just decided to only show some of my shoes. I have two of the Bergsborg cases just for shoes and it's for display more than storage. I have the rest of the shoes in their original shoe boxes which helps to stack them.
