      I LOVE Sarah and I think she is transitioning ...as noticing its like she does not really want input from others as much as just someone there silently getting her drift and playing along...maybe so they GET IT and run with it. Like trying to duplicate herself? It’s just uneasy feeling ...even with Tommy around the island cabin he seems disempowered. The partnership with her husband on projects seem to be transitioning into a new model. She has a lot on her plate. And who knows ...but I get it.

      @@jeanlaubenthal698 No. I don't get it. Most of us live where there's another person. Design requires taking into consideration other's interests and creative contributions. I don't get the 'yes' wo/'man' thing Sarah is doing. Boring to watch and not helpful when trying to design our own place.

    Sarah and Tommy have a special bond. I do miss them working together. Some of those fabrics would be ones I would not have chosen, but one thing I have learned from Sarah and team is…try it, it will look great. Of course, Sarah is in Canada and I am in crazy land USA, so…keep the videos coming, even the older ones, because I need the education. LOVE Sarah’s style.

    Could have worked with that rug. Especially since the homeowner loved that rug. Could have just repainted those red chairs too. It would have still looked great and the person who has to actually lived there would still have the things she loved. I usually love Sarah’s work but I think she went for the more TV ready look than using her skills to suit the client’s wishes. The furniture looks “well shopped” like she went to home goods and bought some stuff. It could have looked just as put together with that rug and those chairs.

      I think if you look closely you will see that it is indeed a plate rail? The wider board on top of the ‘picture rail’ has a groove cut into the middle which stops a plate from sliding off. You can see it in detail if you pause the video at 20:17 where the rail ends.

    Think the green was kinda forced in this project. Loved the blue and making her dishes work. After diner coffee might be moved into other room. And, same blue and drapery fabric would have worked. Keeping the two rooms more cohesive might have been richer looking. The gallery wall looks busy ...but I love the concept...maybe have all at same level or not so many..or maybe it doesn’t work in this room. Painted stripes in both rooms less expensive? But i do love me some wallpaper.
