weak in the knees.

you could paint it cream, and then stencil on a plant painting to be the third in the series on that wall, or if you could get a third painting, hang it on the cream-painted fireplace, in a line with the other two.

I live in the NE, but allergies and asthma keep us from using our wood-burning fireplace, so I put an electric insert in it, and use it as a space heater if it's cold, or just use the light option alone; in the summer I switch that out to a pile of birch logs wrapped in christmas lights. it's nice to have light in the fireplace, since it's such a black hole otherwise.

you could also either wrap the chimney in lights, tacking light strings across it, or run light strings up the corners.

thanks for sharing that blog--My New Favorite Thing!

oh so beautiful. this apartment is so gorgeous, all one needs to do is just stand back and let the original "good bones" do the work, which is what they've done beautifully. with the addition of the FABULOUS green floor in the kitchen--wolf whistle!!

Beautiful--it's so rich but also so fresh. What a skillful combo.

Have you ever considered painting the stairs? they just struck me as a fine opportunity for some blue (risers?) and white (steps?).

70, and I loved that Golden Girls layout!!

love everything! esp how lovely and neat-as-a-pin the kitchen is--very inspiring. my daughter and I picked out the same Dunkie's donut ornament and it hangs in a place of honor in our kitchen. FYI, the very nicest Dunkin Donuts in the world is in Paxton, MA. Proof?, it's where the four local mailmen meet for lunch. Before or after your next trip to Brimfield, come visit Central Mass! We are also home to the incredibly awesome and stuffed-to-the-brim Austin Furniture second-hand-store in Worcester.

this is beautiful, and so smartly planned, it's like a ship's interior. but yet, comfy and gorgeous looking. I adore the highboy tucked into that closet wall--yes, it's a tight fit, but it's got just as much personality as the wardrobe in Beauty and the Beast!

like, space is tight but we are still FANCY!

beautiful! that view makes me want to move to Vancouver RIGHT THIS MINUTE.

Sometimes some shoes are so fabulous and fantastic that they should never be taken off, no matter where you are and what you might be doing.
