Comments (66)I've enjoyed this thread so much. (Well, except for all those 'annoying' football comments. I mean really, let's get the over hyped Super Bowl out of the way so we can get on to the real sport...BASEBALL! Go Rangers! lol Auntjen, we are neighbors as I, too, live in the same county as Jerry World.) ahem...back to decorating. I'm a new real estate agent and one of my fascinations is seeing the inside of people's homes. I held an open house this weekend at a charming home. Talk about beautifully decorated! I so wish I could have taken photos just to show you guys the decor. (The RE photos don't show the decor like I'd like to show y'all.) After two hours of 'living' in the home, I was ready to go back to my more rumpled and comfortable home. lol I know the owners have 'staged' the home to be very, very nice looking and they are getting the right kinds of comments. I just know that for me and mine...we go for that 'creative' look. lol My goal, an ongoing, ever-ellusive goal, is to create a warm, inviting, and comfortable place to live that still delights my eye and artistic sense. That's possible, not perfect...and when it comes together, it is PERFECT. ;0)...See MoreStrangest home staging ever!
Comments (51)I've been nursing a head cold and binge watching HGTV shows this week, something I don't normally do. This house looks EXACTLY like every house I've seen on Property Brothers, Flip or Flop and every other one of those inane remodeling shows this week. It's one white and grey room after another, and although I have nothing against white or grey, it gets pretty old quickly. So anyway, I wouldn't call it the worst staging ever. Just the most 2017 staging ever....See MoreWhat are your favorite decorative items?
Comments (6)A couple more.... Original Art Nouveau tazza... love the mauve glass - which happens to match my birthstone (amethyst)! The stand is a bit bent out of shape, which just adds to its character, imho ;) As an aside, in the background is a vintage lamp base given to us as a gift (!!!) by a lovely lady we met when purchasing the peacock mirror from her. She appreciated our love of the style and offered us the lamp base with a Tiffany style glass shade that had suffered some damage but which she correctly identified we'd appreciate, damage notwithstanding :) The shade is awaiting repair. The pastel portrait below we bought at an antique fair here in the UK. The sitter and artist are unfortunately unknown...but we love her and like to imagine her story........See MoreIdaClaire
