First and formost cute, cozy home. Love your style. I do have a suggestion. Lower the arrangement of framed photos above the couch. Spread them out a little. Pull out the turquoise carpet and just have the couch front legs on the rug. It will make the space full bigger and not as cramped. IMO. ;)

where are those credenza's from????

this is great! i have been so reluctant to spend $15-$20 each on these things. making them however is the answer and yours are the best yet i have seen. thank you!

*yay* for a Sacramentan on here. We're the land of the valley with a lot more style than people give us credit for. Beautiful home Bridget! So refreshing and airy.

1 -Stolen car (returned but stripped) and 1 broken into car (stereo, personal belongings and battery stolen) in front of our home so our light now stays ON! Suffice to say, we haven't had a problem since we started doing this two years ago.

In my opinon this would breed a frightened child who would have trauma for a long time. Likely because a parent willing to put a helmet on the kids' head is a little bit of a hypochondriac. Kids get nics, scratches and bruises, yes even on their heads. If you enforce a fear in them they're not going to learn the hard knocks (har har) in life.

I love it all! The bar area does feel a bit cluttered next to the shelves and the thing that's covering the bottom part of the shelf however it's realistic. We don't have to look like we live in a magazine. I also want to know about that art!!!!!!!

Where is that rug from? I love it!

The other day at Target I saw this small version of hte Saarinen table that would be perfect for a side table, plus it was on clearance for under $18 each!

Here's the link:

I got some awesome ones at Ross ( "you know dress for less") that are blue grey amd were 10 for $4.99. I am not sure of the brand but so far they are holding up great. They don't have clips though. I am super happy about this find and am going look for more in the great color I got too.

I just bought a Lane 1960's round coffee table off craigslist tonight for $40. It was a STEAL for me and I think the seller was glad to have it off his hands (moving). After several phone call exchanges failed plans to meet I finally got it. Yeah, there was nothing easy about finally getting it in my posession but I think that's the price you pay for a free advertising/selling site. We all are in agreement though that good communication with the sellers is key. If you get a weird vibe from the person just back off. I *love* my Craigslist.
