I have found that a good chunk of the cost is the foam insert. Like sitting on gold, I tell ya. Wrote about my adventures here: Case Studies of Real Life Upholstery Jobs: What Do People Really Pay? |

I love the yellow and gray in the bedroom. I find myself so drawn to that combo lately. Do you think yellow is the new orange? More Than Bumblebees & Rap Songs: Black & Yellow |

definitely high gloss white on the wainscoting and trim. and then i would pick something fun that you actually like and that makes you happy when you walk in the room. bathrooms are a great place to experiment because you can easily repaint them. be sure to live with a wall patch of it for a few days to make certain the light doesn't change the color too much. i learned that the hard way here...

we are in the process of renovating a MCM house in the pacific northwest. one of the interesting things i have learned about mcm style is the regional qualities of it. northwest has a different tone than say palm springs or the midwest. we are trying to find that balance with our house (not too strictly mcm and not too kitschy), but i love the clean lines and open spaces that define the style. check out our process on our mcml blog.

We are beginning a renovation on a 1964 Fred Bassetti house in Washington. As we work through it, I keep asking myself about what 'staying true' to the style means. I find that I definitely trend more to the modern edge of 60s decor versus the more hippie psychedelia. I like the clean lines and the form follows function philosophy. Some of those rooms are fun, but not necessarily ones I'd want. Love pretty much all the furniture too! American Style Through the Decades: The Sixties American Style |

we are embarking on (and blogging about!) a similar project in the northwest as well and this home is an awesome inspiration for us! thanks for sharing. Roy & Dana's Greenbelt Home House Tour |

i loved the brady bunch. as a blended family also, we call ours the brandy bunch. though we aren't quite so large and are all girls. as we go through our MCM remodel, i think of this house often as inspiration, but not quite a blueprint. and man, do we need an alice!
