I painted our iron headboard red, love it. Have used the old double for a queen bed for years, now that we want to move to a king, will have to let it go, sigh.

We want to have a TV on the wall over our fireplace too, but it's a wood fireplace, so I guess we can't. :(

I happen to love color. I also HATE some colors on walls. So, I guess what I'm saying is... even with color lovers, if it's not a color they're fond of, you turn them off. I also would consider, does this color go with my furniture so I don't need to paint immediately? How many rooms would absolutely have to be painted immediately? If you have one girl's room with blue skies and clouds, I think people can look past it. The whole downstairs in lime green? Maybe not.

Love the orange as an accent color in a sunny space. The storage locker works, but don't you fall off the bed? Scary! I'd prefer deep drawers under a "slightly" high bed platform.

I'd be afraid to fall over the low balcony railing when getting into those high drawers above the bed!

We fostered our child Blaze until we were able to adopt him at 1 and 1/2 years old. While I like the name Blaise, by then, Blaze is who he was and is now. No one disputes. A little uncomfortable sometimes when people assume things about us because of the name. Although their assumptions may be correct! Yes, a hippy deep
in my soul.

My kids think that IF you plan to use something again in the next half hour or so, keep it out. They're incensed that I force them to put it away. Guess what, when I cave, and allow them to "keep it out for a couple of minutes," it's never touched again.

angorian, it's called the apron of the table

I like it just the way it is, naug is retro!
