Can Bleecker and Olive Live Together?

It's a slowly, but surely moving process of redesigning our living room. However, if you know Chris, I am moving at lightening speed. He bought shoes yesterday that he said, "he's been
contemplating for a couple of years."

I really would like to redo our place with both of our styles, but it's been hard. If Chris had his way everything would be white. He thinks hospitals decorate just right. While, I love bold colors and patterns. That being said, I've seen Chris take a fancy to--uh--fancier things and I can tone down a bit.

I found this great DIY website that describes certain styles. I am a mix of Bleecker Street and Rue Claudel. Chris is Olive Road or Timber Ridge. Well, that make it easy because unless we are getting a cabin I don't know about, we can axe Timber Ridge. And I think Chris likes throwing out Rue Claudel. So now the big question is can Bleecker Street and Olive Road find harmony?

Hmm...is that giant picture of an avacado in Bigelow's design preference? I think that would be an interesting addition to your home.

One of the reasons why he liked it is because the Avocado reminded her of a Pearl Jam album. Does that surprise anyone?
