apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

I like this mural because it is sweet and not overbearing. The green and white scheme keeps is really calm and soothing.

Very pretty. I just hope there aren't any little kids around who would chew on that peeling paint (on the chairs). (My kiddo chews everything right now...)

I agree! That chair set needs an make over. I am all for worn character idems but this is too much for my taste. LOVE the wall!

I disagree, this looks like a snapshot from an abandoned asylum. Bad color selection, unfinished paint is a no-no, and white walls are the worst for trying to keep clean. Sorry to be so harsh, but you asked me for my opinion.

I have that set of table and chairs. I used them growing up and my Mother used them when she was a child. Mine are in the same condition too. There is a little rot in the chair legs, though, and my husband is going to replicate them. (Without the lead paint!)

that was my first thought & concern... the chippy paint LOOKS great... but in the grand scheme of things... w/little hands and mouths ALL OVER EVERYTHING... i'd need to sand edges & paint (w/non toxic paint) to seal it... but other than that i do really like it.
