Yes! I bought this book remaindered years ago and I love it! Rather than just giving you photos of looks to copy, he gives you ideas on how to accomplish a style all your own. Heavy on text and light on illustrations. One of my few "keeper" design books.

I agree that it's the paint. I think the three tone paint is too distracting. I like the pale green color, and think the room would look a lot less "busy" if the whole room was painted that color.

I like your funky style, though, and I love all the color.

Can't wait to see the next phase....

The bleach thing does indeed work. Obviously not good if you have pets or children in the house, though...

Shannon, where is your quotation from? I know it's buddhist, but where did it come from?

We live in the south so we don't have snow, but mud, sand, and dirt. We are definitely "shoes off" people. Keeps the house much cleaner. We keep a big galvanized bucket at the door for shoes.

I don't feel it's appropriate to ask guests to remove their shoes, some people aren't comfortable with that. But I do love that some people feel comfortable enough in my home that they do it automatically, as if they were in their own home.

I love Peep, too! A friend of mine said that she thought Quack was "too sarcastic." I think he's just got a great sense of self-esteem.

I would love to see more shared rooms, too. I am pregnant with #2 and they will have to share a nine by nine room. I know this presents MANY challenges, but I feel that when they're young, it's actually better for them to be together than apart.
