I have a Pendleton wool blanket though I recently bolstered it with a coyuchi pebbled quilt and they work well together

That would be setting the entire house on fire, actually. Heats the entire building for its whole remaining lifetime!

A Charleston single house is a form of house found in Charleston, South Carolina. A single house has its narrow side (often two- or three-bays wide) with a gable end along the street and a longer side (often five-bays) running perpendicular to the street. The house is well-suited to long, narrow lots which were laid out in early Charleston. Despite the popularity of the story, single houses were not built to avoid taxes that were, according to the tales, based on the width of the house; no evidence supports anything about such fanciful myths.[1]

Although the form can be found across historic Charleston in a variety of styles (e.g., Federal, Greek Revival, and Victorian), the consistent feature is interior layout. A front door on the long side of the house, halfway along the side perpendicular to the street, opens onto a short central hall and staircase. There is one room on each side of the hall, that is, one toward the street and one toward the rear of the house. The result is a building which is only one room wide when viewed from the street, giving the form its popular name. Each floor contained two rooms, and the floorplan was reproduced on each upper floor.

Although not a part of the earliest single houses, later buildings had two- and three-story porches, known locally as piazzas, added. The piazzas always appear on the side of the house with the front door which, to take best advantage of local winds, will be the south or west side.[2]

Service areas were often located in separate buildings behind the house. A single house would typically be built along one edge of a property, leaving a carriage way along the opposite side of a narrow lot. A piazza, if part of the house, would run the length of the house along the side yard which could be entered from the street. Alternatively, most single houses with piazzas have what appears to be a front door immediately on the street. However, the "front door" is in reality merely a screen between the public sidewalk and the private piazza. The actual front door for the house is located halfway along the piazza.[3]

I was wondering what queen-size bed frames (bonus if they have storage beneath) would look good (at an affordable price) with this headboard? (promotional frame not included)

A total of below $1000

I've always loved the Mah Jong sofa from Roche Bobois, but unfortunately the $20k price is just a bit out of my budget



So I'm gonna try to replicate the feel by stacking pieces from PB Teen



Wish me luck. I should have photos of how it looks in a few weeks

We're just wrapping up our huge redecorating project and thought I'd share some of my favorite accent pieces/purchases to date. The overall feel of our home is very neutral, but with lots of earthy textures and natural materials (marble, travertine, bone inlay, leather, boucle, stone washed linen, etc.). Not shown here, but a few of our rugs have dark olive tones which makes the rooms feel more cozy.


We tried to get most things used/vintage from Craigslist/FB Marketplace, but I'm happy to provide sources if I have them.

Urban Outfitters has a floor cushions with that general vibe.

This place near me is is up for sale, and I am just utterly gutted at its state of disrepair, knowing that unless someone with an incredible amount of money decides to take on the project it'll just sit around until it collapses, and then some developer will put "luxury townhomes" on the land.

Youth Decay have you covered Maine/NH/VT housing on Zillow yet?

I want to know if this was really simply a family house or did they rent it / use it for commercial purposes. Also 6 acres of lawn, which seems hideous to care for, but running around like a lunatic on private land sounds wonderful. I miss frolicking.

Both of these are for sale near me, and I like both. I'm tempted by the former, as it's a Lehigh Leopold, which seems to have some value. I'm not sure if that actually means something though, or if it's just a meaningless brand name. I'm new to buying furniture, especially stuff that isn't utter garbage. Any inputs from the thread? $400 and $275, respectively.
