Well don't go here and look at this (swoon). It's less than RH but higher than your preference LOL What a beauty though. https://www.allmodern.com/rugs/pdp/danika-handwoven-wool-cream-rug-a000783488.html?piid=1142119700

I agree with the idiocy of 'no personalization' this isn't a rental and it's not for sale!! if those frames are too small find an old screen door, hang it horizontally and print out larger photos!! The chandy looks to be hung too high..other wise it's looking spectacular!!

Low back, no swivel, but beautiful walnut with black accent: around $140 or open box $111.

I've been looking at counter stools for over a year and still can't make up my mind so don't plan on me being much help :) You have a good eye. You'll find it.

@shead

I was talked out of built-ins. Maybe 'someday'...but for now it will be a 60" hutch on the left side [still waiting for it] and the right side something tall ish....ladder mirror etc. ?

Oh. I love this print...

that @BeverlyFLADeziner posted

[love everything about all of it the stuff on this wall]

but looked it up and it's $1400. drat...

Hi Trish, these might look good with a wood grain island. Adds some texture and seat pad is washable/changeable after wear. https://www.ballarddesigns.com/bd/490822?listIndex=0&offers_sku=ST421%20BAR%20WSG&SourceCode=BDG006&intlShippingCtx=US%7CUSD&kclid=0c0a1120-0535-4068-9279-abbddd00e691&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI16bnw6CE6wIVT_DACh0QnwdUEAQYBSABEgJpUPD_BwE

Leaning towards these:

the color blends with the color of the cane on the kitchen chairs and also beams....

and I'll add a throw that was mentioned a while back with the leather in it...

and all 3 are <$300. Woo hoo....

yay? or nay?

rug is still a struggle...

Love these

I like your windows and I think with some modifications to how they were used they could work good in your new room. If you placed them closer together so they seem more like they belong together and then for each window pane make that a frame with a larger photo placed inside it could work well. Some options shown below.

I know most of them show people in the pictures, but you could do landscape scenes or pictures of objects too. Whatever you feel would work best.

Edit to add that I think since yours are only divided into 4 that they would look better than any of the above since the pictures would be larger and more visible.

@Trish Walter love the leather chairs!

Not exactly what you have shown but we just got this rug and really like it - similar colors to your photos and very inexpensive

@Trish Walter Where are the leather looking counter stools from that you shared above? Those look awesome. I'd love a link!

@Cheryl Hannebauer not much to update...

ordered island stools and pillows..

still stumped on rug and art...and trying to figure out master bedroom...never ending fun.

I think an oversized antique map or reproduction National Park posters would be great.

@tcufrog funny you should say.

I was eyeing this map....

is this rug too busy? I like it and it's $600...

reminds me of the textured one I posted a bit ago that was $1300...

but this has 2 colors...

here it is in someone's house...

they have it in solid ivory but worried about staining...

similar but has beige too...

I like first one not second

First choice - ivory would allow more rigorous cleaning though because it'll only turn 'whiter' but both colors are pretty. I feel like the 2nd one has a distinctive zigzag that catches my eye by itself

I have this West Elm rug (Distressed Foliage Rug). I love it. It may work in your home. They offer several different colors.

Looking good! As to rug, I have two level rug in our great room. It is pretty but hard to keep clean. The high parts take all the soil. So think on that. I knew that when I bought this but got such a good deal I knew I could change out later. It will be given away on next move.

Rug

Thanks. I went ahead and ordered the grey/ivory one. Hope I like it but can return.

Here are the stools. We like them!

Stools need a place to rest your feet, the thin railed footrests also hurt if sitting very long.

I had put the stools on backwards in the pic...hubby laughed and fixed them. But the foot rest is skinny.

Stools are awesome. Glad you like them. We love a touch of camel

got the rug...i dig it...still waiting for some of my pillow covers....and still missing 2 chairs and the media console...shoot you can't tell in the pic but the front pillow has camel leather on it...

Love that rug!!

Sure love bigger size too. Makes the room look a whole lot bigger too. Be interesting to see how it wears. Keep us posted. Winner!

@Flo Mangan thanks! it's 10x14. I was worried as it is quite big but went with the bigger is better motto... glad you like!

I suggest you put the pillows on left of current sofa to far corner of other sofa. They will show up better there.

@Flo Mangan I am still waiting for more pillows...those are the only ones to arrive so far. and half the furniture in my house is still missing. ugh.

Try putting the pillows on left as you have them to right of other sofa. They will show better.

Ok. Just a thought for now. Really looking good though!

dining table and chairs for great room came. console was too big so got sent back. Might have to cut down the host chairs. ugh.

Where are the dining head chairs from? They are gorgeous.

What kind of stone is on your fireplace?

I think your home is looking lovely but do think the host chairs are too large and out of proportion to the other chairs. Am looking forward to seeing it finished

@winer812 they are from overstock Potomac wingback host chair without slipcover

@Robbin Capers they are stacked fond du lac

Looks great! Love those lake pics! Where did you end up getting your consoles?

@shead had them custom made from an Etsy seller. The lake pictures are also from Etsy. All our favorite lakes.

Love your consoles and lake idea. I was considering getting a table made from someone on Etsy but was hesitant as I haven't done it before. Sounds like you had a good experience. Also, so cute that your TV showing Christmas movies in your photo

CUTE PUPPERS!!!

@Keepthefaith MIGirl I was hesitant but look through reviews, etc.

The shop I used was : https://www.etsy.com/shop/UCFurnitureLTD

the lake prints were Etsy also but she actually lived nearby and hand delivered.

Hi! Late to the posts but wondering where you got your counter stools and the carpet?

I’d rethink the use of host chairs. Should two people dine in comfort and the rest not?

Please forgive my last comment questioning the use of hostess chairs. I realize I’m taking the issure far too seriously. I need to chill!
