I love the chalkboard paint backsplash. I’m looking for an interesting idea for my kitchen backsplash and chalkboard paint is now on the list of ideas. Thanks.

What a wonderful space! We are moving soon and you have given me some inspiration for our new place.

Where is the purple couch from? I love it!

Really beautifully done!

The chalk board application is way cool. I’m sure it was a royal pain to do, but you achieved a look that was worth trouble. Sure, the canned stuff works, but this looks richer to me. Plus, your reuse saved both money (you’d have needed several cans of paint and primer to get that fine of coverage) and eliminated several things from ending up in a landfill or at recycling. How cool is that?

The variegated plant on the tv stand looks like fireworks exploding to me……a mini-celebration in a pot.

I really, really love the Chambers stoves–and the link. Thank you for that!! I had to sell my precious 1920’s Wedgwood a while back and I think you’ve put me on to considering a possible replacement.
