Love the home - gorgeous! Like everyone else here, I would also love a full house tour, and definitely pictures of the outside of the house (a Tudor bungalow? Those are two of my favorite things in one!)

Sigh. I wish I had taken pictures of my hallway in my last apartment -- it was deep purple and gorgeous, with gold accents -- but alas, it remains only in my memory.

Very cool. However, I would love for AT to do a post on storage ideas for small spaces and SMALL BUDGETS. It looks like a lot of these are expensive projects, since most of these are custom, built-in furniture pieces. More often than not, if you are in a small space, you probably have a smaller budget (except for us New Yorkers who all live in shoeboxes).

Just a thought, AT folks :)

So cool! My childhood self is green with envy! (Question: Not to be a buzzkill, but what do you do as the tree inevitably grows? Or is this so slow going that you don't notice and the structure of the treehouse isn't really affected? Do you worry about it being struck by lightning? Just curious!)

This is a great one from Mark Montano's Big Ass Book of Home Decor -- especially ideal for those with paint chips left over from past projects, so naysayers can rest assured :)

LOVE the color fade and the matte paint on the fabric with a bit of sheen. Very smart.
