Comments (61)HI -- Good morning Girls ! I was up at 5;00 this morning but it was really 4;00 - my body is going to take a few days to get into the right time zone again . I will go back to bed when my hubby gets up . Thanks Feeny for the perfect explanation of a chinook - it's the rapid change in pressure and also strong winds - this was a gift from change in hormones - thankyou God, and this just proves God is a male . A chinook sky is a wonderus thing to look at - with the warm air coming over the mountains it forms an arch/ridge in the cloud from north to south. We get a lot of light here and picking colors can be a bit of a task but the light at the beach is not the same so I think all these new beach glass colors would work but I love whites in beach houses, but more of a warm white , right now I like Behr "Antique White " - It seems to work anywhere. As for candace66 --- I think the "kid" should be let in based on the grandma factor -and I always read and enjoy her comments . I remember bikini's from the 60's and my stuff was OK then to stuff into a bikini but have too much stuff to stuff into one now . But the ones the girls wear now leave to much stuff hanging out for the world to see. Thanks everyone on your kind thoughts on losing my little Merlyn - I know it happens to all loving pet owners but your kind words help , Thanks . Well hubby is up and changing the clocks so now I am going back to bed....See MoreStuck with impulse-buy sofa in light gray. Doesn't match anything!
Comments (104)Thanks Karen, yes, I really like the Kilim patterns...those Ikat are a little blurry/fuzzy and I"m not crazy about that for some reason. OK, so I've been procrastinating on my real work a bit more and have made some progress on my living room! But I still need help, esp with my paintings. 1. CURTAINS. We had a blizzard here in NYC and so it got very cold. I realized a 2nd bonus for curtains after decor--and that's keeping the cold out of the drafty windows. So after having decided that I liked blue, I got 2 more types from BBB and today hung my curtain rail up. I got the 95/96" curtains and because of wall/ceiling issues, I had to hang the rail from the ceiling but the good news is that the curtains 'just' grace the floor--so I don't need to do a hem! woo hoo (no time to do hems!) The pictures I"m posting have 2 curtains of one type (on either side) and in the middle I stuffed a 3rd of the other type in the rail--basically just to block out the cold. When both panels are fully stretched/opened, I have a big gap, so I either need 1 more panel of 2 more. I guess curtains, even when open are supposed to look a little crinkled, right? (And not like a flat sheet? If so, then I need 2 panels. I like the curtains. I don't think my iphone camera/flash properly captured the color but they are slightly darker than the blue pillows on the couch, but basically the same shade. And as you can see, I stretched it all out to cover the entire wall. 2. PAINTINGS. I had all these paintings balanced on my sofa and only one hook on the wall and was worried about my cats tipping one over. So I went ahead and hung the paintings without giving much consideration to which should go where. I was going for a top-to-down slanted ladded arrangement, but as you can see, it doesn't work. The way I had them in an earlier picture on my sofa sort of stacked in a group looked good, but my question is, how hi up towards the ceiling can they go without looking ridicullous. What my bad phone camera doesn't really show is that the 2 darker non colorful paintins have pretty vivid gold frames, as does the smaller colorful painting. So I know there needs to be some interesting juxtapositions of the gold frames and the colors, but I"m just not sure what. It's hard to do this alone and not sure when I can grab a friend to come over...I had to go ahead and hang them up but I can change things. Any specific ideas on arrangements welcome! 3. COFFEE TABLE Again, the camera seems to have really missed the coffeetable--or else it's just extremely neutral. It's a walnut wood and you can see the pretty floral pattern on the top. It's been restored a bit, hence the bumpiness you might see. It is antique and was my Grandmothers and is French. One of the legs broke up (in a very unclean tear) In the pics, the table is balancing on that leg. Someone suggested a black coffee table. I don't feel like anything black will work for me. Feels way to modern and I also have nothing black so doesn't feel right. I probably won't get a new coffee table, although I'm open to suggestions. This one does go with the rest of my furniture (which you can't really see well in the pics). But I have mahogany and/or walnut with medium to dark brown stains. Would like to know yall's thoughts on this coffee table. 3. And I will check out ETSY, have never been on that site before, for pillows.. thank you!...See MoreHelp please on kitchen floor design!
Comments (3)I would carry the wood look tile into your kitchen for a seamless look. It depends on the line of site and if the two floors would look too chopped up. You can bring the diagonal in the backsplash, possibly above the stove as a feature. Hope this helps....See MoreReplacing lattice and landscaping...American Four Square home.
Comments (21)Winter is always a challenge to decide how to landscape. I would agree to let the bushes come to life in the spring and see how they fill in. If they are pretty sparse, consider replacing with something evergreens and keep well-tailored. The lattice should go and should be closed up with vertical plants, probably white if you are staying with that trim color, the side included. Spindles need to be updated. The front will most likely need some definition and should be tailored with some StoneEdge decorative edging for that definition. Not seeing the full yard, you can also build in some low shrubs along the pathway with some mulch or aggregate depending on the climate. Isolate that with perhaps PRO aluminum edging. The main point is to create some dimension to the landscape. The two flower pots in the front should be replaced with high pots so the flowers planted can grow....See MoreMissSherry
