Small 10X11 Master Bedroom, This is my tiny bedroom. It's only 10' wide and 11' long. The window is off center and the bed really has to go on that wall because of the dimensions of the room. I'm not sure what to put on the walls and I haven't hung the mirror yet. I want to mount my TV on the wall the bed faces. I'm wondering if I should put the dresser on the other wall so that the bed can be shifted over a bit, unblocking the window just a little bit more, or if the dresser is better off where it is out of the line of sight when you walk in. It weighs a ton so I haven't tried that yet! I'd like some white curtains, but it's not in the budget right now. I should mention that the bed is white probably 8 months out of the year, so usually the curtains are fine., Bedrooms Design

My 8 x 9 kitchen, This house is from 1930 and I really love it. I rent, so I can't do an overhaul, but I plan on being here for a long time and possibly buy it in the future. I am thinking about asking if I can paint the cabinets white, but the wood is ok. I'm thinking about a silver tin backsplash, but I worry that since the kitchen is so small, it will make it look to busy. I'm also considering ratan-type blinds instead of the white mini blinds. I have 3 of those stars hanging over the sink, but I'm not sure they work there so I didn't hang the third since it's plaster. I painted recently and I do like the color. I'm really looking for suggestions., Kitchens Design

Kitchen or arboretum? You be the judge, I really like all the fake plants, my husband thinks it looks old fashion. I'm having a party this weekend and they all have lovely houses. I don't want it looking weird, but I really like it!, Kitchens Design

Illinois Family Room, Here is our family room. These are the new pics since we added the new furniture. We need larger end tables and something else on the wall with the TV maybe. Any decor suggestions for anywhere in the room?, Living Rooms Design

Illinois Family room arrangement #2, Here is our family room. I'm trying to work out the best arrangement for the furniture. Obviously the TV needs to be moved, (maybe a flat one for over the fire place) and we're going to get a coffee table for in front of the big couch. Is it weird to have the seating spread out across the room like that???
p.s. Yes, the cabinet is angled cause our TV is too deep and we didn't want the whole cabinet out that far., Living Rooms Design

Weekend Reno!, We bought our home a year ago, and the kitchen has been a heel since day one. The countertops were nice, but didn't go with the cherry cabinets. The backsplash matched the floor, and looked dirty always. Now, it's beautiful., Kitchens Design

Cottage style kitchen, We have recently downsized our lives and welcomed the idea of condo living. We were able to completely customize our condo as we entered the project in its early stages. They are styled in a craftsman bungalow look. Wall color Benjamin Moore Stonehearth. , Kitchens Design

transitional/Contemporary/minimalist kitchen makeover(before & after), cookie cutter track home got a major overhaul from floor to ceiling. Kitchen is on the small side and the short cabinets made the room feel even smaller. original yellow oak cabinets ,white tile countertops and recessed fluorescent lights from early 2000. Lacked personality and style and very ugly to say the least.
Did my research and laid out a budget before taking the plunge though in the end we nearly doubled the amount spent. project took two months from start(demo) to finish. , Kitchens Design

50's Cozy Cottage Kitchen, Our kitchen space is cute, but old. The cabinets have been repainted many times. The floor is uneven because of multiple layers of linoleum. The appliances need replacing. Something is leaking between the fridge and dishwasher and we don't know which so we keep a towel underneath the fridge to soak up the water coming from somewhere. The bar/pantry is so deep, things get lost and you never see them again. The bar really isn't a bar it's a "catch-all" and we need more space!! , Kitchens Design

Open concept, This is a 2 bedroom apartment above our garage that my husband and I have almost finished. He fought me on the white cabinets wanting a rustic feel and I wanted some contrast from the dark hardwood floors and pine ceiling. I'm so happy with the end result, and so is he. Original plan had the island straight, we angled it to soften the transition from kitchen to living room and vise versa., Kitchens Design

Total Transformation, The kitchen prior to renovations was a Galley kitchen with a pass through to the formal dining room on one side and then had a breakfast nook on the other side. There was a wall between the breakfast nook and an indoor patio.

I decided to knockdown the wall between the breakfast nook and the indoor patio and then close up the pass through to the formal dining room. I then transformed the formal living room into an office and placed my dining room furniture where the breakfast nook used to be. The kitchen has a huge bar that you can sit at so there is no need for a breakfast nook anymore.

This created a giant living/dining/kitchen area. , Kitchens Design
