Inspiring Interiors: A Melange of Old and New

My dream Paris apartment might just be this - the decorative elements of old grandeur - parquet floors and gilded crown molding mingling with modern and approachable furniture.  Typically I like to steer clear of pieces with rounded lines, however, I think that here, it really balances out the room.  What do you prefer old grandeur or fresh and modern?

  10. Interesting blog! Is your theme custom made or did you download it from somewhere?

    A theme like yours with a few simple adjustements would really make my blog jump out.
    Please let me know where you got your design.
    Thank you

  11. Hey this is kind of of off topic but I was wondering if blogs
    use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with HTML.
    I'm starting a blog soon but have no coding knowledge so I wanted to get guidance from someone with experience. Any help would be enormously appreciated!

  12. Howdy terrific website! Does running a blog similar to this require a great
    deal of work? I have no knowledge of coding however I had
    been hoping to start my own blog in the near future. Anyways,
    if you have any ideas or techniques for new blog owners please share.
    I know this is off topic nevertheless I just
    had to ask. Thanks a lot!

  13. Greetings! I know this is kinda off topic but I was wondering which blog platform
    are you using for this site? I'm getting sick and tired of Wordpress because I've had problems
    with hackers and I'm looking at options for another platform. I would be fantastic if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.

  15. I am wondering which blogging and site-building platform you might be running?
    I'm new to blogging and have been thinking about using the Hubpages platform. Do you consider this is a good platform to start with? I would be really grateful if I could ask you some questions through e-mail so I can learn a bit more prior to getting started. When you have some free time, please make sure to contact me at: jenifer_bounds@fastmail.fm. Kudos
