I've often wondered what might happen to our house if we sold it, as every young homeowner here in the M Streets (Dallas) wants a neutral, modern interior. That's it -- I'm never selling!!

Glasser's stuff was certainly beautiful but I LOVE the bedrooms that owner 2 and 3 did. Very simple but beautiful. <br /><br />I don't like the super modern items in the house.

Re Glasser: I love some of the elements and her collections are fab. It does seem a bit over patterned for my taste...even tho I love all of them individually. BTW I think the bench she reupholstered in the living room is not the same as in the 1st photo (legs).

I loved seeing the transformation of this house, though I didn't adore all of the details of each transformaion- if only the owners had asked for all bloggers to weigh in on their decisions!
