Not sure why they didn't take the palm all the way to the floor. The color of the X benches makes them look a little lost. The wall sconces do look off, and a console table would be a much better choice. That round table takes up way too much space. Obviously the glass is there to protect the table top, but it does nothing to enhance the look of things. So what does one do to protect the surface? The room is still pretty, and the oversized ginger jar is beautiful.Lisa D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08333815608310503191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2395859504434574133.post-16922857693826674642021-04-07T10:12:36.406-04:002021-04-07T10:12:36.406-04:00So true now that you mention it.So true now that you mention it.Deltahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04833327020818185122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2395859504434574133.post-68280144286209945292021-04-07T10:07:18.249-04:002021-04-07T10:07:18.249-04:00A lot of stuff going on in a small space.

Love the wall palm and the floor lamp--the rest needs major tweaking.<br />-Wall sconces look "off" as in belonging inn a bathroom.<br />-Would have preferred a console table given the tight passageway to the door. <br />-OR... keep the round table but replace the 2 stools and the ginormous ginger jar with a wicker bench.<br />STILL...an overall nice space, easy on the eyes.Deltahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04833327020818185122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2395859504434574133.post-25971356716191084112021-04-07T09:47:05.918-04:002021-04-07T09:47:05.918-04:00The palm needs a base between the trunk and floor....The palm needs a base between the trunk and floor.

Here especially, where it doesn’t reflect much of anything and has no practical use. Seems unnecessary and sort of cheapens the look. Agree that the trim is sort of over-the-top. Was it added to somehow spread white around the room and key in with the over-the-top palm, which I love?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2395859504434574133.post-63652715097227156962021-04-07T08:48:06.183-04:002021-04-07T08:48:06.183-04:00I like this space as well.
