the couch looks like the most comfortable things ever and w.o.w. to the chandelier.

@Maddness@AnnaPLW@Tracy333@thorndale@nonie Thank You. The floors are white oak. Of all things the four framed pics on the walls are the original plans to the house we found tucked away in one of the closets. All the hardwood floor types are listed on those plans. The side table was purchased at an estate sale. It is an original Library Table. There are two drawers in it and I lined them with velvet and I store my flatware in them. I know...throndale that chandelier does not photograph well and it would probably look great in a foyer but I just had to put it in that room.

@SaraBlue the chandelier was a purchase from a local shop here in Buffalo that is no longer. It hung over their cash wrap for years. The shades are hand painted and made of tin. It is one of my favorite pieces in my home. the green baubles were a purchase I just made from the MacKenzie Childs shop in New York. They are made from recycled bark and sprayed green and dipped in gold glitter. They were $12 and in the ornament section in the store. thank you for your questions.

Passing along a tip. to me, the worst tile grout to clean is the grout between the tub and the first layer of tiles. and when it's grimy everyone notices it. When I quick clean our washroom I use Soft Scrub Gel with Bleach. The container has a thin spout and all I do is squeeze a line of this cleaner all around the perimeter and let stand for 20 minutes. I don't even scrub it. After the time passes I use the shower head with hot water and rinse away. Spotless.

I have an "out bag" and I loaded it up and dropped it off. Lots of goodies in that bag. I like the saying "If you not using it allow someone else to enjoy it". I could not agree more.
Good luck everyone!

I cleaned my bedroom which is also adjacent to my home office. Both needed a cleaning. I am so glad I signed up for this. It's like we are all cleaning together. I treated myself to a Pumpkin latte as a thank you. My room looks so clean and nice. I am going to put the flowers from today's task in my room.

I think the Spencer sofa looks vintage and modern. Its a beautiful sofa. I wish it had wooden legs. I think it has the flexibility to go in a casual and dressy room. In addition I think the color is fabulous. Would work well with browns, greys, camels.


Which Of These Couches Should I Choose?

Looks so clean, bright and inviting. I love the white and how shiny the floor looks. Two favorite items are the beautiful pocket door and neat khaki colored settee. Very cool.
