furniture revealed...

Emma has already claimed her favorite spot on the back of the couch - I need your feedback on this room. I'm getting the floor sanded and refinished. Do you think I should stay light? or go dark?

Here's the loveseat and the odd chair. Both are soooooooo comfy!

This sort of shows the whole room - t.v. is off camera to the left, and the furniture company is still searching for the missing yellow ottoman for the odd chair.

My weekend of painting went to hell but in a spectacular way! My son Russ drove up to Maine from New Jersey to buy a car that his Maine brother found for him. So of course I dropped everything and drove down to meet him. It was so good to see everyone and watch as Russell met his new nephew Karlin for the first time. We all went out to dinner and had a wonderful visit. Then I drove back to Machias Sunday morning and began cooking for Matt, Faye and Kiley's return from their six-day trip to Disney World. Kiley hasn't stopped talking about Mickey, Minnie, Donald and Daisy.. she was in heaven. They also went to Universal where Kiley met one of her favorites - Curious George! The weather was chilly but they had a ball.

Nothing but work, work, work ahead this week....town meetings, missing elderly man, high speed chases and arrests, fire at a boatyard...seems like it is all bad news.....good thing I can forget it all by napping on my new furniture!

My opinion? I think I would stay light. But maybe that's just me. It seems to open up the room more, and with those warm colors and the pretty furniture, lighter floors allows them to stand out.

LOVE LOVE LOVE the sofa set! The whole room actually, looks so warm and comfortable! I agree with the light floors, dark would look too formal I think...

I am going to take the middle road and say medium toned floors. Your new furniture is beautiful, especially when they find your missing ottoman! I spy pretty flowers on the end table. Nice room. Too bad the news is bad right now, hopefully the warmer weather will eventually make everything happy again. ~Lili

I'm going with the "Nesters" suggestion of a medium wood...but on the light medium side:-)
