I like the red walls on either side of your fireplace! Beautiful use of color! :)

Green with envy over everything in your home! Especially that wall unit--just amazing. Wonderful, lovely work! I love the way you've kept the original elements; that's really refreshing and looks more modern than the modern stuff, if you ask me! Thanks for sharing your inspirational home!

I have a similar situation with my bathroom and went with Benjamin Moore Glass Slipper. The soothing blue gives my bathroom a spa-like feel. The color is almost white; it's such a beautiful, crisp translucent blue. Good luck! Love the shower curtain!

Funny, only yesterday I picked up my grandmother's chair from the reupholsterer. Like you, I have been moving it around with me for 18 years, dreaming of reupholstering it. $600 later, I have a new chair (even though the chair is nowhere worth that price), and it was worth the wait. Your couch is AMAZING, and I think it is worth the $1000+ it will cost to restore it! I would not recommend getting rid of it. The springs can be easily fixed. Unless you buy another used couch, you will be spending at least $600 for a new couch that is nowhere near quality and beauty of your grandmother's couch. What if you put away some money every month and spent a year or two finding your favorite fabric and a quality upholsterer?

Also, as a friend of Bill W's, I *loved* that beautiful old edition of the Big Book. Loved it. Right on!

First time commenting on AT! What strikes me about your place is the taste and opinions: very inspirational! Nothing goes together yet it goes together better than anything is supposed to go together! Thanks for sharing!
