Would You Buy A Cuddle Mattress?

I agree with LaTica, a natural wood chair would provide a nice contrast.. but with the 9 Dragon one, it'd still be simple and modern..

Cool table! Good luck!

Another vote for LEAVE THEM AS THEY ARE! maybe recover the seat... And I like the tablecloth but if you were to take it off and paint the table white, i think that could be cool too.

I love it! There definitely are some things I'd need advice on but seems that if you are careful, choose the right wood, it'd come out great.. :)

Large Scale artwork will definitely help fill the space but I encourage you to not feel the need to fill the entire space with art. Paint would help too. Consider many different wall fillers like mirrors, wall-mounted shelving, etc. (good example here- http://www.erincondren.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/NAte-berkus-apt-elle-decor-writing-wall1.jpg )
OK, what I would do is this- I would choose a nice, warm, but pretty sublte color for the walls. I'd place a few smaller pieces of matted and framed artwork in a 'cluster' above the piano, i'd place a large leaning mirror between the piano and the sofa, like this one from ikea -http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/00081591
Then I'd do a dramatic/substantial piece of artwork (canvas?) over the sofa, keeping the center of the piece at or just above eye level. This leaves the higher part of the wall exposed, letting the new paint color create the dynamic up there.

OK, that's my 2 cents! Good luck! Oh, and any re-decorator needs to have the decor bible - http://www.amazon.com/Domino-Decorating-Room-Room-Creating/dp/tags-on-product/1416575464


How To Make Vaulted Ceilings More Inviting?
Good Questions

I did this! In my kitchen. I'll post some of my pics when I get a chance.. I actually found the rubber for free on craigslist, which was great because it can actually get kind of expensive..

The only issue I had was, in cutting it myself, getting the seams to line up well. In a couple trouble spots, I plan on using carpet tape and a little black marker to hide and secure the seams.

Thanks again!

I love working florals into design.. but I live with a man. (A stylish one who loves about anything i do in the house but still..) I feel like the pic with the red chair shows a good mix of masculine/feminine that I could aim for. Thanks!

It was nice piece before, yes, but its yours! You can do what you want! And I think you did a great job. Its funky and beautiful.. Maybe you should show a picture of the piece in the context of your home so that people can see how it fits in? Thanks for posting a great DIY!
