Love the tour.

Any way you can share what colour the bedroom was painted (from the RH fan deck)?

For those of you who think it is offensive to take off your shoes in someone's homes, have you thought about how disgusting it is to have a home with carpet that has been walked on with dirty outdoor shoes? Also, to echo mzp, i cringe when i see people on the bed with their shoes on. This must be an American thing, because i have never worn my shoes inside someone's home in Canada.

Also, to those women who are complaining about having to take off their heels and go barefoot in the cold winter...who goes sock/hoseless in the winter??

I have had some guests in the past who will bring a pair of indoor shoes to wear, with which i have no problem. I think it's uptight not to respect the host's request to take off your shoes, especially if he/she has spent the time vacuuming and mopping the place for your visit.

I'm not sure if a cool grey would work, unless it was very light/pale. I had painted my walls a saturated lavender-grey and it looked awful with cherry wood.

Were you planning on painting the same colour throughout the living room and kitchen? You don't necessarily have to paint both rooms the same colour in order for there to be flow. It's hard to comment without knowing what colour furniture you'll have in the living room. I would probably keep the white walls in the kitchen and just paint the living room.

Great do-over. I have the exact same tv console table!

Love this warm and airy home, especially the original art. I disagree that there's too much IKEA/CB2 -- yes, there are some obvious pieces, but I think the owners did a great job of mixing it up (especially since it's their first home).

Though it's a nice enough home, I find the rug's scale way too small and the painting is hung way too high.
