@barbieanne68...have not heard of a black Westie...I think the equivalent is the little black Scotish Terrier but Pearl does not resemble one of those closely enough even if she's a cross. She's gorgeous! Lucky Fiona.

Love the sofas - nice midcentury style with the angled legs, great colour too! If it were me? 1)Big colour art work on wall 2)Chrome lamp (arc) in corner that adds height but also provides a sort of "canopy" to frame the sofas and link the space 3) Floor rug - sisal? Textured? Perhaps a lighter tone/neutral to offset the navy and timber floors? - I love putting a larger sisal area rug under everything to link the space and group the furniture. Then I add a more textured/soft rug to add layers, textures and interest. The larger rug acts like a picture frame for the elements in your living area. 4) Coffee table - maybe round so little ones don't get hurt? Also provides movement and contrast against the straight lines and angles and ties in with the arc lamp. 5) finally, pillows and throws in chosen contrasting/ pop colour. Take that from your artwork! 6) clock in kitchen. Doesn't match midcentury design of sofas, but thats just me!

Hi Bekkyboo7, if you like the idea of plants - depending on your taste you could go for something sculptural like a String of Peas or a ZZ Plant or if you're a keen cook go for herbs - there's even hydroponic kits that are designed for kitchen benches such as Aerogrow hydroponic systems or try something in a macramé hanger (just watch the weight - growing medium can be heavy when wet).

trouble with kids is they don't go wandering on foot they prefer to catch the fastest thing around aka trams lol told them if you walk you'll see much more I don't use trams when I'm in the city I go wandering on foot :)
