But I know exactly what you mean by too much honey...our floors are the same honey color as yours, plus our kitchen cabinets are that color too. It drives me crazy, and I would paint the cabinets except they're maple. Can't wait to see what you end up doing..!Whitney @ Drab to Fab Designhttp://www.drabtofabdesign.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4434795602752963677.post-23513020668335699232012-06-15T16:15:22.718-04:002012-06-15T16:15:22.718-04:00I removed the rug from my dining room before I ste...I removed the rug from my dining room before I stenciled it. The rug was, of course, very dated - it belonged to my husband from his bachelor days and I was happy to be able to give it away. The room looks bigger and I am loving the open feel and does not mess with my head when we add the extra leaf or 2 when we entertain and table becomes bigger than the rug. The room looks great, Amber! Great stenciled wall - you put so much work into that you should enjoy it for a while longer.A room with a viewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03223202837487135747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4434795602752963677.post-90410150869216821012012-06-14T22:05:27.763-04:002012-06-14T22:05:27.763-04:00I love it without the rug actually!

I love natural fiber rugs, but I have an indoor/outdoor rug under one of our tables and it's great because I just bring it outside and hose it off every now and then. It's perfect with three little ones.Suzy www.savedbysuzy.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04567515183153770968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4434795602752963677.post-24301788595179056832012-06-13T23:22:14.576-04:002012-06-13T23:22:14.576-04:00I too am always changing things up! i think a seag...I too am always changing things up! i think a seagrass would look fabulous!Barbara Matsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01687912436864826801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4434795602752963677.post-994185540538909592012-06-13T22:43:28.739-04:002012-06-13T22:43:28.739-04:00that wall paper is too perfect!

You could enjoy your beautiful wall a while longer but still freshen up the room. It seems that there is enough white in the room to tie it all together and not look too dark.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4434795602752963677.post-14778358262780679392012-06-12T13:02:04.219-04:002012-06-12T13:02:04.219-04:00I definitely do as you described... my mind is alw...I definitely do as you described... my mind is always going to change something!
