msnutmeg asked:


have blonde 50’s collection. dining room china cabinet & buffet.want them to be deep rich chocolate brown.Should I paint brown & then stain & coat with clear polyurethan? Was once painted ocre & then stained blonde. Should I use water base paint & can I stain over this? The china cabinet belonged to my grandmother and it took me 4 years to collect the rest of the pieces including a table & 6 chairs and a desk. This is a sentimental thing for me…i would love some help to make everything match & finish all with matching drawer pulls. I just love the deep chocolate brown color with a high gloss finish…any help would be greatly appreciated…I will have access to U.S. products as I am located in the great lakes area …usa. THANKS A BUNCH! FROM A DESPERATE GRAND-DAUGHTER! WHO REALLY DOESN’T WANT TO MESS THIS UP! SMILES

Tomcat asked:


I am forced to suddenly move. I need to resell my furniture, but at the same time, try to get a decent amount back as I need the dough for school. The furniture I have is from the formal living room and dining room and is hardly used, still good condition.

Decorating a college apartment?

Pink Frog asked:


My am in college and next semester my best friend and I are getting an apartment together. She is kind of boyish and I am super girly. We will each have our own bedrooms and bathrooms and she said that I could decorate our Living room, kitchen, and dining room as well. I basically have two parts to my question:
1.) When decorating my room and bathroom, I have no furniture yet so it is a blank canvas. Where can I find some cheap durable pieces that I can transfer to my house when I graduate? Also, where are some cute decorating ideas? I love the home interior kind of stuff with the wrought iron and etc, but I am still yound and want to incorporate livliness! I also love pink and green. Where can I find cute accessories?
2.) For the living room and dining room, we have antique furniture that is very not our style. I will have to work around it until we can save for others. How can I modernize it and where can I find cheap but classy looking stuff to replace it? Thanks!

Can you help me find a COMFORTABLE dining room/kitchen set?

Wednesday, January 2nd, 2008
tnb1984 asked:


I am looking to buy a solid wood kitchen table (prefer cherry), with large (wide, cushioned) chairs. I want a table that everyone WANTS TO spend time at. One that’s REALLY comfortable. I really like the cozy look of a breakfast nook, but I don’t want the bench seats. And, most are just too small for us. Any ideas??? Thanks!

amallama asked:


…the computer in it (i know, weird combination)? i have tried to come up with some names for the room, but none of them seem to be right. “the breakfast room” doesnt fit because of the computer. “the computer room” doesnt fit because of the table. i was also thinking of calling it “the casual dining room” which fits it, but it’s too long. what would you call this room?

beloved93 asked:


I have an antique (1920 +/-) Duncan Phyfe style dining room set that I want to sell. I’m having a difficult time trying to find an appraiser in my area (SE Michigan) who’s interested in giving an appraisal only. I run into mostly antique dealers that just want to offer a price so they can turn around and resell it for double. What would be a reasonable price to ask for a solid mahogony dining room set (table, 6 chairs, china cabinet, buffet) in good condition?

MrsKat asked:


Our house has a very long living room/dining room combo with white ceramic tile. The walls are a light brown color with a white vault ceiling and dark wood center beam in the middle. There is a stone fire place in the living room. Does anyone have some decorating tips? We like dark wood and antique looking furniture. We also have pets so we can’t have anything expensive.
