Hi Rebecca, I no longer have time for design consultations. My best advice, without looking at your home, is to keep the rest of your room calm. Your busy fireplace will always grab attention so let it! The rest of your room should have a tight color palette and not be fussy. Hope this helps.

I found it on erugsales.com. However, they no longer carry it. I’ve looked everywhere for it and cannot find it anymore.

Hi June, congratulatons on making the move to downsize! We do not have a deck, but a covered patio on the back of our home. I do use my wedding China, but not as often as I would probably like. Like you, I use my everyday white dishes the most. Happy Fall!

Yvonne,
Another great post! Especially since we have settled on a twin home development with a vaulted sunroom. Now one has to become open?. Curious, I thought you had a deck off of your sunroom. Maybe I am mistaken. Just curious.

Loved yesterdays post about moving and our kids adapting. So much great info. Even shared the post with my hubby?

Curious, when you downsized did you part with your china? I have not entertained with mine for 21 years. My favorite dishes are from Pottery Barn and their caterer box. Classic white and we use them daily. You would think they were just unboxed.

I have a small family room with a busy stone fireplace to decorate around. I would love your advice! Do you still do design consults? Thank you!

I do use one plant occasionally on the coffee table. I’ve tried using other plants but they seem to overwhelm the room.

We have blinds on the windows that help.

We can’t all afford such beauty but you give ways to duplicate as best we can. About the tv in sunroom: What do you do about glare from the windows?

I struggle with a small living room with one wall of windows. I’ve noticed that you haven’t used plants in your decor. Is there a reason for that? Since I have an abundance of windows I’ve used a variety of green plants as part of my decor. Now I’m wondering if they create a look that is too heavy for a small room.
