Thanks Pi and Elane8, that's very reassuring. I think I will entrust my ample butt to the vintage coffee table and see what happens.... :)


How To: Thrifted Table to a Modern Upholstered Bench

The bench is stunning, but is anyone else concerned about the weight-bearing capabilities of a converted coffee table? I know coffee tables are built to support cups and books, but perhaps not an adult's body weight. I've been wondering about this issue, as I have considered converting one of my coffee tables into a bench.

Should I be worried about whether the table can handle my weight? I just have a vision of the whole thing disintegrating as I am sitting on it..... Sadness and tears!

Nope these are from IKEA! I recognized them at once because I used to have these curtains hanging in my bedroom. I bought them 3 years ago, but I don't see them on their website anymore - I'd give you mine but I donated them last time I moved. Maybe IKEA will bring them back for the Fall? Or you might try eBay.. Good luck!

I have that same cat tree! I love the idea of it; I've found in practice that its shelves aren't optimal. They need to be spread apart horizontally, particularly for small cats. This probably isn't an issue for normal-sized cats, who can just hop from one ledge to another rather than having to leap. However, my teensy cat will use it sometimes (especially if there might be treats involved).

I also have the same voodoo knife thingy, except mine is in silver...yay for us! I like your place but wish you had more art on the walls.

I like the wallpaper exactly where it is--it'd be kind of boring to rotate and move it above the couch. Plus, then you'd have a lot of things crowded in the center of the wall, with lots of empty space on either side--also an unbalanced look.

That being said, you need something else to balance the room. I wouldn't do a print or even a set of prints so close to the wallpaper; that would compete with it. Try something smaller with a little bit of color to it (yellow or pink?)...maybe a round mirror or sculptural piece. Alternatively, try a large print on the other side of the sofa, maybe with similar colors but totally different style or subject matter.

Me too Rachel! I'm not a morning person and I find it's so much easier to find things in the wee hours when they're organized by color. I also organize my shoe collection and my belts that way. But there's nothing more frustrating than finding something in a shop that's in a cute color and realizing they don't have any left in my size!

Btw, organizing by color also helps me see what isn't fitting in my closet--the shirt that doesn't go with anything else, the belt that clashes with most of my pants, etc. Then I know that I either need to get something new to match, or get rid of the misfits.
