pictures please! I wanna see your swanked up livingroom

See, I wanted to make this the "artists" art room - nothing TOO commercial! I have LOTS of space too!

Like these walls! That room behind the tapa is my dining room cum tiki bar. Still have to clean it out and paint, etc.

The curtains actually should be at the top of the window, but I need to put in a support of some sort for the middle of the rod because it droops a bit in the middle. These are my very first ventures into sewing curtains and pillows - so don't be too harsh! And then there's the problem with having shorted myself on fabric. Oh well, lived here 17 years and never had curtains so I'm not too freaked about it!

These three show the accent color walls (stairway and wall below stairs) - we chose a color from those Chinese plates (gifts from in-laws) - but it's a cool color anyhow! I have since painted the light cover so you don't really notice it and have painted and replaced the switch plate! By the way - my dad carved those two guys! He'd never done Tikis before so he had to use a couple of "go-bys" my sister found. I think he did a fantastic job!

Hey, I did a little "photoshopping" with the fabric design I like (one of your new ones) to see what it might look like - is this close?
