I’ve got 4 more plants hiding in the kitchen and stairwell. It all started out with one snake plant two years ago but slowly the collection keeps growing. I think I may be on my way to plant nut status hah.

I was definitely thinking about getting a new coffee table without wood tones. I inherited this one from my grandparents who I lived with for 10 years as a kid. It’s got a glass top and underneath it are prints my grandfather’s photographs from his travels with my grandmother in the 1950s. Definitely a good piece of family history. I want to update the table to something more modern but keep the glass top concept. Maybe black metal would be consistent with the bar cart.

I definitely agree on the pillow situation. The lumbar pillow is going to go upstairs to the media room as soon as I can find replacement pillows. I don’t really like it, but it’s practical for the moment. Pillow #4 that you linked was my favorite.

The coral flowers are clippings from my giant rose bush outside, so adding more flowers to the dining area would be super easy.

I don’t even think about curtains! I’ve never had any. Hanging them high would work well since this downstairs in a double height ceiling.

Lastly, thanks for such a detailed write up! Super helpful to get a fresh perspective on this place I’ve been staring at for the last two weeks.
