I love how the fence looks! How creative.

Yeah, that wall color is not flattering and I can even see the texture in the pics. On the upside, those windows are delicious!!! I feel like a light gray would look good here. It will still show off the architectural details, but allow the blues & greens to pop a bit.

I like Lisa's idea of a tablecloth. There are lots of really cute ones and when you get tired of it or change your decor, you can easily change it out. It's also a good solution for you since you have no outdoor space. You could even just use it as a temporary solution until you find another table or save up for a table you love.

No, but fortunately we don't have to. We have a long windowseat in front of some big windows in our living room and the cat loves to lay up there and sunbathe. The dog usually prefers the rug by the french door in the back if he wants sun, but he'll get comfy anywhere.

I totally agree on the smoking! It's way worse than noise! It's the same thing in cars, people roll down their windows and blow out the smoke, so on a rare nice day I can't enjoy the weather. If YOU want to smoke, roll your windows up and enjoy all that poison- don't poison me. It's one thing if you have a house and you're smoking in your own yard, but in homes with close proximity have some consideration.

I don't mind hearing people's music too much, it's when they have that extra base or whatever it is and you can actually FEEL it. OMG, that's so annoying! You can be so far away and still feel the beat go through your body.

Heck no! I saw that on an ep of something on HGTV and this had this big ugly china cabinet blocking the only window in their tacky dining room & a dresser in the bedroom! That is insane to me; I love natural light coming in the house. I might block an inch or so of a window with a shorter item, but that's it.

Now THAT is cool! This is going right into my inspiration folder! I love how colorful it is and it still looks so natural.

It's cute. I really like that outdoor shower and the dog bed- very cool.

I think the purple looks good (def. no on the red), but just from that sample, the rug looks like a pain in the butt. Seems like it would be cooler as art, than as a rug. But hey, if you don't mind the work, get it.

I love that song!

Those are impressive. They look like a lot of work that I would never have the patience to make. That would be a cool idea for a first anniversary gift; I'd like it.
