Oh I love that old truck on the bottom. I’m contemplating decorating our son’s room in a theme around classic trucks– my hubby has a 50s ford

Showing me the coffee table wasn’t nice if I can’t have one–that is exactly what I have been looking for. Beautiful–I love the simplicity! Thanks for sharing it– (except for the coffee table

Pretty farmhouse. I love the bedroom and staging area. The bedroom looks calm and serene and yet inviting. Love the rug in the staging area.

The kitchen is nice but it could be a little softer so it looks more like a home and less like a cabinet display. I love the cabinets and table but think it would stand out more with a few minor changes. I'd like to see some window treatments around the window(they don't have to block the light), maybe some green toile and I'd like the table and rug turned the other way so both sets of chairs can see out the window, which I am sure has a fabulous view. It would make the kitchen seem less like a bowling alley. I'd add two rugs (runners) on either side of the island to complement the rug under the table and then a lighting fixture over the island that would complement the one over the table (more for visual interest if there is enough light already). Finally, I'd like to see a picture or something on the end of the wall near the doorway.

Beautiful farmhouse.

I think that Karl should sell my rugs….they go perfectly with his furniture, which I love, by the way.

What a fun tour. I love the simplicity of the decor. The interiors are very warm and welcoming. I loved the stripes he painted on the staircase wall. I also love the multi-function of his bedroom / studio. Thanks for letting us take along for the virtual tour. Enjoyed it!
