Thank you, OP! This thread is so fun! Do you have any inspiration images for adding charm to my 90s era builder grade McMansion?

Designers get discounts on Visual Comfort, but you can sometimes find that brand at a discount from Shades of Light, which is based in Richmond.

Circa also has a more affordable site called Clarkson Lighting and you can sometime find similar items there.


Np on this thread. Thanks for those links! I'm looking for a chandelier in a traditional dining room (Queen Anne Victorian home). I like crystal, but don't want it too fuddy fuddy. It's so hard to know where to start looking.


Me again. I kind of like this one you posted on a previous page, but the source doesn't say where it's from. And I don't always trust my taste anyway.

Another request- medium sized bathroom with no windows but stills feel large and airy.


Not OP, but it's more typical to do BR>Closet>BA.

Thanks, 21:07! We've considered that blue! Also... a leaf green? A pencil yellow? We're into it... also looking at all the wallpapers out there!

Not op, but I like this bedroom color for slanted ceilings:

I'm back! Here are a few ideas for formal-ish dining rooms that are open to a kitchen.










What I love most about these pics are the gorgeous light fixtures!! Anybody have good sites for these?



These next two are showing both sides of the space.

Would love to see ideas on how to spruce up a split foyer, especially one that currently has metal railing. Thanks!


I’ll add do you know where some of this furniture is from?


Hi! This is just something I do for fun. I would love to work for a designer or in a showroom in the design center. Maybe when I retire, that could be my second act!

I can sometimes spot a few specific brands, but I also think that we are probably looking at a lost of custom pieces when the photos are from magazines like Veranda or from portfolios of big name designers. I do love the hunt, though, so if you ever saw something you liked, I might be able to track down something that might be close (and not custom!).


I see the requests that came in since I last visited. I'll definitely do some searching over the next few days to find some fun ideas!

I would love inspirational photos of kitchens with oak cabinets, white counters and a slate floor so that I can learn to live with the cabinets. Thanks for any help!
