Before & After: The Heard's Dashing Dining Room Re-do

Bodum has cute red toasters that would go with your decor---

I also say white cupboards and light gray walls. Remove/replace artwork above the bench. Find a really great photo of you and your husband and blow it up in black and white, or if you have a great color photo with a lot of blue sky, have the photo shop give it a "vintage" look. The artwork needs to be about 36" wide to look right and hang no higher than 6" above the bench! In other words, the lower the better.

Cute kitchen!

I've been known to dip my pjs into a sink full of cold water, wring them out, then put them on for bed while the fan is blowing directly on me!
I do like the bucket of water for the feet idea too.

Great couch!
I remembering playing at Breuner's furniture stores when I was about 6-8 yrs old. I pretended each and every living room and bedroom showroom were my very own...
My parents were always dragging me around to furniture stores.
Sorry, what exactly is your question?

Navy blue in the dining room would look great behind the yellow deer painting.
The living room though almost looks as if it's in a different home. The furniture and accessories are very old fashioned in style, so I would go with an off white paint color. Try Navajo white. The afghan, drapes and tv stand are all enough color...

Seriously?! Take the pole out of the bag insert it into the sand, twist a little to get it deep enough. Attach umbrella and open. Enjoy.
It's not hard. If you really are not able to do it yourself, ask the mother next to you for help.

Not sure how old little Maceo is but by the looks of his crib I'm guessing he's not walking yet...curious to see what he'll do when he gets his hands on those bottles of booze stored in the old stove on the floor!
Love your artwork and deck chairs...

Magdalena,

I am confused. I understand you are 19 and living at home. Do you have a job? If so, could you purchase some items you might like for your bathroom (for example, a mirror?) Do your parents own a screwdriver? If so you can buy very inexpensive but nice looking toilet paper holders and towel bars at the hardware store, Target, Ikea, Home Depot etc. and install them yourself. Very easy. If you are not comfortable doing it then ask a guy friend of yours to help.
We AT readers are not completely understanding your situation. Do your parents NOT want to finish the bathroom? Do they not have ANY money? Are they lazy? And why CAN'T you ask them for these things???
Please explain.

So you don't need grout if the tiles are this size?
I really like the look, it looks very purposeful (even when it was purposeful.) Nice bathroom and shower feature without having shower over tub.
