LOVE it!

It's an Ermine, not a ferret.
And pretty sure it's stuffed. Like for decoration (cute/ humorous) not as a dog or cat toy =P

I to saw this earlier and I think I remember someone mentioning a very valid point: Americans will have a difficult time accepting the modern remodel to a Victorian home (in a nut shell). It's true for the most, Americans are very focused on preservation in every detail possible, so it makes it difficult to think outside of the box. I give them props for breaking the rules and mixing it up. We do not move forward when cemented in place by ideology.

Great to see a house tour with all your hard work put nicely together! Have loved your blog since I ran across it awhile back. Thank you for all the inspiration!

Thanks to everyone who Favs my room and all the kind comments! And thank you Apartment Therapy for the love. The "Rambo" comment is priceless and made me laugh out loud. Thank you for that!

It was a blast taking a big risk most wouldn't. Especially when 99% of the decor and furniture was at one time, all someone else's "trash" and I had to figure out how to make it all work together. If you'd like to see what the room looked like before or see more pics, please come visit me, I'd love to have ya!

Why I believe this design was chosen:

1. It would take a total of five seconds to set it up.
2. Super lightweight and easily shoved into your laptop bag.
3. Non obtrusive. Clean thin lines make it barely visible.
4. The price is nice but not cheaper than what is available out there now. So not too sure why this is a highlight.

To comment on the second poster Edboy1: Yes, laptops typically need to be cooled with a fan or offered the ability to allow airflow to run across/under it in order to release the heat that builds. Do you or have you ever owned one? All depends on the model and maker, but they can get quite warm and even uncomfortable to have on your lap. Try it out sometime.

I also can see myself using this more so than a chunky fan that I typically place under mine currently. The fan weighs more and is much larger, being more difficult and a pain to lug around.

I love what they did with it. Yes, the back seems very modular, but interesting in it's own right.

American's are very particular on keeping things the way they were meant to be, but breaking the rules is a wonderful surprise. Bravo!

@ Jess13... It's funny, because you told me not to do what you just did.

Do you regularly see the paint chips gone from the rack besides perhaps one color on a new release? Hearing the mumblings of the workers "There was this HUGE stampede of folks crazily grabbing them in the hundreds and running off."

When you ask a rep for a book, are you often told "I have had to get bodyguards due to the crazy people following me asking me for our paint chip books"

Do you really truly believe that people are going to rush the paint chip stands and reps to do this?? Get real. I mean come on now... what is with extremists anymore.

I am so in love with this place it hurts!

After all the negative and nit-picky opinions, I wish to add something a bit more positive.

While it may be made to set focus on the more "elite", there are some amazing aspects that offer fantastic creative decor ideas. Look at the individual pieces and not just the rooms.

The redesigned RH is a personal change for the company. Not everything is made for everyone, there is no need to cut down or be sarcastic. Especially when this company was not doing so well in the not so distant past, and now it is flourishing.
