Pls sell the couch to me before you change one thing about it! I LOVE the color of the wood AND the upholstery. Don't change either. I agree with other who have suggested chocolate brown pillows. The brown in a luxe velvet, linen or hemp would be NICE! A dark brown sisal area rug would also make it more masculine. Personally, I like the green too but I think one color would be best, brown or green. GREAT eye for GREAT find!

I Love kanthas, I hope the winning selection is as beautiful as the pics.

I think the ears are cute, I'd wear them for halloween but everyday? on the street? nah, don't think so! I like fun like everyone else but they are kiddyish. And PLEASE stop attacking people for their opinions! that's kiddyish and bullying. Everyone does not have to agree, can't we all just get along?

Not usually a fan of traditional but this on has so much going for it! I am not a shoe person but the shoes do add personal style! I love the two hearths, that green tile is delicious! I think any home that shows the personality of the owner instead of just being "out of the magazine" is naturally easier to make a connection with. A home is not complete though without some orange. A throw pillow? A throw? Even an accessory? :-) Also, in the dining room a bigger more colorful rug under the table? Maybe even a muted color kilim? Overdyed purple carpet? :-) Ok, now we're talking about ME :-). Great place!

It is a nice modern room. I could live without the hides but it's not a show stopper. After all, we eat A LOT of meat in this country, hide rugs/upholstery/pillows etc. is just eco friendly, recycling even. We have to do something with the hides besides put them in the landfill. I don't however, like the bed on the floor thing. It works for this room because the ceiling is so low but in general, not a fan.

E for effort! However, it looks like the base of muslin that covers the batting before the upholstery fabric is put on. If it is muslin, that may not hold up to regular use, it is too thin and will allow too much movement of the "batting" (pillows). It's a good start but I wouldn't leave it like that, it doesn't look good.

Really nice! Only thing missing is color. A soft shade of something on the walls would be the finishing touch. Maybe a light green or yellow? Without some color all of the beautiful selections kind of blend together :-(. Although, as someone else mentioned, those rooms get plenty of light, you could even go with a darker shade like camel or a light brown to bring out the brown in that gorgeous granite. Be brave! Go for the color!

That Tavolo Con Ruote table is so low to the ground! It doesn't really seem practical unless you are sitting on the floor. Do you plan to raise yours a little? The design is cute, I hope yours turns out just how you want it to!

I bought a mid century buffet that had a musty smell. I read on an on-line site that vanilla on old newspaper worked. I took old newspaper (about 2 weeks) crumpled it up and shook
vanilla on it, newspaper does not have to be soaking wet. I put this inside the drawers and cabinets of the buffet and in about 2 weeks the musty smell was gone. I did re-wet the newspaper once w/more vanilla.

um, yeah.. I think that's exactly hat I would do, walk away and very quickly. That piece is over the top practically speaking. If I had a cavernous space then maybe that could the throne ( I would need high heeled mules with feathers on top to go with) or some place to take Halloween pics. I would cover it in a zebra print and paint the trim pumpkin! Or wait! One more idea would be to get a lifesize Liberace dummy and pose him on it. (add candelabra of course!) :-)
