    Love that ceiling too. Makes the room so warm even though the color palette in the room is fairly cool.

    Love the top image. I've been trying to come up with something to cover a large wall in my house. Something similar to this would work wonderfully.

    That kitchen? Surpassed only by the living room. Surpassed only by the bedroom. Love it all. If you move in can I come for the weekend? I promise not to drool on everything. Too much.

    That green sofa is completely fetching! If we find something like this at Liberty don't allow me to let it get away. It might not fit in my car, though. :)
