This is a very quick rendition, but I was trying to be speedy. I don't have that cute old painting in front of me to play with, but if I did...perhaps...I would change the colors a little bit?
Mind you I would never even touch someone else's painting, I'd just start new with my own, but if you're going to play...

Thank you everyone! First, the sofa is...Ikea! It's an old model and I love it too. : )
The bird tapestry has been in my family for a very long time. So, thanks goes to my mother for that.
Our fall look is pretty different from last year's decor. Take a look: http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/ny/room-for-color-2009/margies-scandinavian-rainbow-room-for-color-east-22-098402

My favorite part about this room is the way the bed is off center! I like that it's different, off from the wall and on an angle. It looks inviting. Interesting that you changed pillow directions and moved the light for the photos. Either way works. It's the only twin bed I'd ever want to fall in! So thumbs up on that. And speaking of matchy matchy, different shades of blue work really well in here- the walls, blanket, pillows, etc. Love.

We always called these "military houses" built strictly for military families. They're all over West Point New York and around several military academies. We always thought of these houses as temporary as any family could be asked to relocate- hence the minimal and practical design. But still, I think it's traditionally a ranch house.

Make sure you check for bugs! Boxes left at a company or outside or in a basement, etc...there are paper mites and all sorts. So thoroughly inspect before coming home with "friends!" Or maybe...wipe it down with rubbing alcohol...? :)

Oh Robin's Egg Blue, what can't you do?!

I LOVE your little kitchen...this is what I would do...or maybe half of this. Or maybe nothing. Because your kitchen is already so perfect! http://www.flickr.com/photos/seesawmarjoriedaw/4168713641/

Gosh, if I had to spend that much money on a piggy bank I'd have nothing to put in it! :( I prefer the homemade piggy bank! And I adore the vintage bombshell vase!

Yes yes and yes! I love getting into the holiday spirit. I change seasonally. I have winter spring/summer and fall decor. My shower curtain changes three times a year...my bedding changes as well. I switched out a picture on my wall for a Gil Elvgreen pinup in holiday wear. I'm all about it! I'll put up photos soon!
