That is a wonderful idea.  I have never heard of a pot filler or seen one for that matter.  Maybe I have, just didn't know what I was looking at.

 

Thank you.

@Mz iMac ,

I personally don't have one but have stayed in houses on vacation that do have them and really like them.

I have a few family members that have and love them. 

When we were building our house I mentioned to my husband that I wanted one and he said.....Just what we need something else to get a leak in the wall. Needless to say I didn't get one.

I was not a fan of the very first photo (living room?), but I absolutely LOVE the kitchen and dining room! That kitchen cabinet paint color is so fresh. Gorgeous!

This is such a pretty home. I really like the blue ceilings and the way the blue and green are mixed in the kitchen. The first room, while pretty, is a bit bright for my taste.

Exactly the same for me.

The living room walls look like something that should be on the floor.  Too many colors and patterns going on.  I also don't care for tablecloths on end tables.

 

The scallopped hood over the stove is too much - too cutesy for me.  I love the cabinets and really don't mind the color, but the backsplash seems like a wrong choice.  Again, JMO.

 

One thing I noticed is that some of the ceilings are painted blue.  My ceilings in my home and porches are painted blue/green.  I love the look.  

 

Thanks for sharing~


@tends2dogs... Like most others, I don't like the living room wallpaper at all. Can take or leave the art over the sofa, though it might work better against something other than that wallpaper. Although the furniture pieces are appealing, something is just amiss for me. I also am not sure I like the bright chartreuse table cover, which seems rather jarring and also appears to pick up on nothing else in the rooms. I do love the highboy. I very much like the kitchen and breakfast area, love that fresh green. Don't care for the dining room wallpaper and don't really love the table or ceiling light, though the table is rather handsome, as is the breakfront. The dining chairs are very pretty, like them a lot. I don't mind the scalloped hood or the tiles chosen, but probably wouldn't have chosen either of them for myself.

The house is colorful, yet it's grounded, comfy, & homey.

I really like it.

Forgot to mention, I especially love those French style breakfast room chairs. Lovely shape, wood trim and such a pretty color. They also look like they would be reasonably comfortable in which to sit and enjoy a meal, a cup of coffee or a chat with a neighbor.

I love the dining room and kitchen, but the living room is just awful, in my opinion.
