Love, love, love it!!!!   Seriously....Sarah is one of the few designers that I would gladly hand my house keys over to and say "take as long as you want and go for it. You can give me a call when you are finished".  

To me,  this project  is just another example of her amazing talent/vision  and FTR I am not smoozing as honestly there has never been anything she has done that I have asked myself "what the %@)#*  was she thinking?".   :)

I pretty much love everything Sarah does, it amazes me how she can take an old ratty banana yellow sofa and make it look awesome. Although the coat of arms is not something I would have thought to put on my walls, I think it suits the place.

I love the open airy feel of the room with its vaulted ceiling and grass cloth upper walls contrasted with the hits of warm colour in the pillows and painted chair rail.  The only thing I noticed, and it is nit picking, is the mortar in the fireplace and the paint on the mantel don't gel for me.  The warm cream paint and the gray in the mortar seem to fight with each other.  But I have to say that I really admire that Sarah doesn't just follow the trends but sticks with what she loves, bringing back Indian rugs with red, mid-tone wood on the floor and grandfather clock and I would also note, a grandfather clock!  I love it.

Sorry Tommy... a big 'absolutely not' to the coat of arms; however, the rest of the reno looks fabulous.

I like the coat of arms. It suits the room.

I love the room. I think Sarah did a fabulous. I wish the show was an hour long and focused on the construction as well as the design decisions.

Love the room, hate  the coffee table and coat of ams.  Looks very warm and inviting overall.

I think Sara is the best thing that ever happened to HGTV.  Her style and ability to fit something into everyones style is outstanding.  I have watched all of her shows, and now watching the re-runs.  HGTV - don't ever let her go!  I am undergoing an old farm house full reno myself and would love to have Sarah help me.  Her style is my inspiration.

looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooove it!!!!!!

especially the different colors, textures, and sizes of pillows on the neutral furniture. Huge fan of grass cloth too!

The only thing this room is missing is another bump out... and me sitting in it!

Hats off to Tommy...you succeeded in this episode. The coat of arms was your pick and the purpose of art is to spark conversation. You did that! BTW...I like it in the room.

This is the Sarah that I remember from years ago...she is in her element.  Beautiful!

coat of arms, well.... it belongs on the insane accessory train.

I am always amazed by the way everything works together.  I watched in wonder thinking that maybe this cushion wouldn't work or that colour might be just a bit too... but look how lovely it all is. The glimpse of dining room through the doorway complements the colour scheme in the living room without being predictable. Real harmony. So lovely.  So happy to get your show in Australia in a little over a week - I wish it was instantaneous.

I love every programm.  I look at it and record also.  The coat of arm  I did not really like. I have a small house in Eastern Township and like to inspire myself on a much smaller scale.

Hi Sarah, I use to watch you when you made pillows, you have come a long way baby!!!  I truly like the way you blend the old with the new.  Everyone is going green and so they should.  I recently redesigned my office using used materials from the Re-Store (Habitat for Humanity), it turned out great, if I say so myself!  You are an inspiration to all!  Thank you
