Wednesday hidden home decor
Comments (17)I also found a picture of the bedroom beyond the bookcase door The house had some great features, most notably being right across the street from the harbor, with this for a view: The house itself was cute: and it had a large backyard, with terraced gardens However the kitchen was outdated and more importantly (in my opinion) it sloped down a couple of inches from the near side of the kitchen to the far side. Which I felt indicated foundation problems (well that, and the fact that you could see light through portions of the "rubble" foundation). My wife's family was fortunate that they found a buyer motivated enough by the location to ignore those potential issues....See MoreBefore and After Living Room REVEAL
Comments (19)I love your room. Two sofas or loveseats perpendicular to a fireplace is simply gorgeous. I have a "very important question," LOL. Where did you move the fish tank? I have a 12-gallon all enclosed tank similar to yours. I'm working on shoehorning it into the living room before winter. It will hold one Beta fish and a half-dozen or so Raspbora tetras, my favorite small tank combo....See MoreLIVING ROOM NEEDS HELP
Comments (44)kwwd- A handy husband! Aren't you a lucky gal! In that case, why not go for broke, and think about moldings for the top and bottom, and maybe some closed storage for the bottom (coasters, napkins, etc). You might want adjustable shelves, and there are many types, and then, he can build in outlets and such for picture lights and wall lamps/sconces, even a charging station, too!. Another thing I forgot to mention, although you will have color to ground your white, texture and earthiness is very important too. There is earthiness in the primitive art, of course, and a live green plant brings both texture and earthiness. If you can bring in things that enhance your decor that incorporate texture and earthiness, perhaps with some neutral colors, (e.g. pine cones, baskets, sea shells, a wooden tray,) that will reinforce your vision of an upscale rustic/eclectic/farmhouse/chic. The neutrals with white are very peaceful, and timeless, too. You don't need a whole lot of neutral colors, depending on how much blue you have in the room. Why not have a look at this blog, she talks a lot about this.

Comments (8)I think it looks fine and the dog seems to think it's quite a cozy space too. A side table would break it up, add a lamp for height. Just to test out the visual, move the plant that is to the right of the fireplace to that spot and see if that breaks it up (not permanently, just to give you an idea of how large an item you need beside the table). Or even the plant to the left, see what that does to break up the visual, just as a test and repost some pics. It looks like a great house!...See MoreRelated Professionals
