DECORATING ON A SHOESTRING--THE DEALS AND STEALS THREAD!
Comments (65)thank you both you're too kind I actually think of opening a thread for stuff I find..something that's cool or amusing or fascinating for me yet I've no use for it or don't need it or no space or no money..but it won't always be on a shoestring..some will, some won't.. because sometimes I feel like "what a pity I want to share it". So sometimes I pin it as inspiration, but sometimes it will be gone soon and all and I'd rather share somewhere where might be useful right away...See MoreThe art consultant sent me a proposal for art in my living room!

Comments (65)This OP has posted several dilemmas lately. I started reading this one from the onset and yes, there are several of the more critical posts missing. She clearly was happy about the selections and appeared to want validation from the people that had helped her with her other dilemmas. One of the first comments on my first dilemma on here was devastating to me and left me very upset. Fortunately, I have a thick skin and just flagged it and then along came some wonderful people to help me. Sometimes certain contributors just go too far. I’ve seen many OPs run off from this forum, but this is the first I’ve seen someone completely delete their account. THINK before you comment people! You could make or break someone’s day with your words...See MoreVenting about what I can't have!!!
Comments (85)Good morning said my rechargered mouse)) ok..so the thing I wanted to say yesterday I guess would be: -your room is quite an accomplished story already. Of course, it can be written as a different story, That room can handle many genres so to say. Or it can be tweaked. but i wouldn't tweak it too much-because then the story will be different. Unless you want to do away with your story and rewrite it-I'd leave the story largely as is. True, there are things that people think a room benefits from as a rule-an infusion of color, a this, a that.. But some rooms, like some stories, they're written differently. And they're written well. And they are what they are. And this distinctiveness is authentic to a story they're telling. Add things you need for everyday function and comfort..the lamps..(I'd comb through Etsy..I have many there saved, but they're probably sold by now. I'm very much into lights, all sorts of lights. if I find something I'll post the link to it..)..maybe the pillow for the black chair if it'll bring more comfort to sit down in it(I've no idea whether you need it or not, obviously)..maybe a pillow with washable cover if you like to lounge on that blue sofa..you don't need a lot. Just needs to be good pillow..nice to touch..nice to fall asleep on.. I'd be able to leave that fireplace wall blank for years-until I find something that makes my heart stop. Or you can do plates, very successsfully-these or others..plenty of examples in some of the books I talked about earler. Or it can be a mirror so different they'll be able to be good friends, the existing one, the new one I wouldn't do any different blinds or treatments on the window-you got one already..and I would't miss curtains, even though I love fabrics and curtains,..it looks good as is. Elegant, reserved, a bit painfully beautiful. I wouldn't mourn not having a rug-sure you can have it still..and will look great..but it looks great now too, and I love penny's suggestion on how to repair the floors, it's authentic to the story In short-the story is yours, and you decide what to do with it, obviously but it's already there. it's shaped. and it's already good. and it's already a story that begs one to read it. so I, personally, wouldn't rewrite it. If I want to take a different book-I'd take a different book, But I like a book by this author, right now. Tweak it if you please, make it better for youself-but it's just editing a bit. You wrote a good one....See MoreLooking for a Silverware Chest on Legs.
Comments (31)Not so happy ☹️ The shipping date has been changed twice now, and the latest estimate is the end of March. I am not hopeful it will happen even then and I need to get this stuff off the dining room table. I really like this one but it isn’t available either. I’ve emailed the company to find out when they estimate it will be back in stock. The same company has a larger one that is available, and I could certainly use the space, but the proportions of this one are much better. Anyway, I am still on the hunt and have split the difference and set my upper limit at $1250. Ironically I could go to the Scott’s antique show in Atlanta but there is no way I am going in a building with that many people, masked or not. (and this is the Georgia that still has no statewide mask mandate for indoor shopping!)...See MoreSunnysmom
