love the idea of using it in the kitchen as part of the backsplash - lends a very pretty and soft edge, for a room that can sometimes be too cold and clinical.

if you would like to bathroom to stay light, i would find a paint colour to match your grout.

if you want to go bold and dark, i would suggest painting a dark navy - you have enough white in there to keep it bright + you have a great red brick colour which would pop against the dark paint.

if you want something with more flair, i'd suggest painting an aqua or teal colour - this would really allow the brick to stand out!

the bedroom shot is my favourite - i don't think i would've thought of configuring the pieces as you did (2 tables in one corner, 2 large wall pieces in the same corner) but it totally works. great job!

it's not common, but i've seen this in toronto as well.

if the cat is comfortable and likes it, then sure go for it!

but i know that with my two kitties, they cannot stand anything contraption like a harness, let alone a collar.
