Angela in Holland's Profile

I think I'd embrace the kitsch of the piece. When I first saw it I thought "hmmm... I wonder if she can shove the guestbed up against it and somehow try to make into a headboard?" That is, if you're not desperate for the cupboard space it provides below. Remove the upper doors, chance some hardware, and use the cubbie holes to display/store necessaries for your guests. Maybe the decor of the room becomes something like... er... modern/grandma-chic/nod to Oklahoma-ish?

I vote for gray and white. Leave everything that's already white and change the other things to a nice, soft dove gray.

Oh Matt, I hear ya. (and totally empathize) I also lust after this chair and live in Holland.

I live in Den Bosch and we have some fantastic furniture stores here. (some stuff I've seen has a definate American-y feel) I'll keep my eyes open for you.
