Thank you so much for linking up to my party. :)<br /><br />I love Layla's ideas (esp. the shades!!!) and your friend Dixie is right on (in my opinion) with her board and batten idea and the paint/stained coffee table.

I'd maybe just switch out the curtains for something with pattern & white in it. Nothing too busy- stripes would even work. Be careful adding white to rooms.. sometimes people what to lighten it up so much that they just throw in white everywhere, and it doesn't end up looking "together"Courtneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14197830742412847337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4528239722280245740.post-1203714070393398172009-08-12T08:10:00.161-05:002009-08-12T08:10:00.161-05:00Okay I would go with the board and batten on your ...Okay I would go with the board and batten on your back wall - that would change the whole look of the room to maybe more casual and very light. I would lose the bench and all those pictures though - it just seems so busy on that wall- very cluttered. The armoire is so big and to add all that would be wow -overkill. Just my opinion though. I like the bench maybe with just one coordinating basketTammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08966190769332566442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4528239722280245740.post-2102504529179494372009-08-12T00:17:00.701-05:002009-08-12T00:17:00.701-05:00Great changes Holly.

IMHO the dark curtains seem really heavy. I agree on using the full lenth curtain rod, something about the two short ones stops the eye from noticing how large the window really is.

Then perhaps you could use curtains with a white base and a darker pattern in them. Maybe a damask or toile. The board and batten would be great! Maybe some coordinating patterned pillows on the couch, with a white base color.
