apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

What in the world is a fainting room? I prefer staying conscious in my rooms.

lizzieS, In Victorian times, the ladies had their corsets tied a bit too tight. Although you can't tell from these pix, this house was built in 1900.

What is a karate-chop pillow? Somehow, that fad has passed me by.

Don't know what a fainting room is either. This is definitely not your average staging. I'm not sure who the lime green bathroom would appeal to. Won't prospective buyers be thinking about all the painting they would have to do on this place?

Yeah, after the ladies climbed the stairs, they'd have to rest for a bit in a small room at the top of the stairs that had a little chaise or sofa, a.k.a. the "fainting room."

Sheesh! That karate-chopped pillow thing is ridiculous. Thanks for the link. I never seem to learn about fads until they're already over.

Well, I only have one pillow on my couch, and it's too firm to be karate chopped.

My first thought about the bathroom was that the toilet paper/towel storage box is waaaay too high to reach easily.

Thank God all my pillows are too firm for that karate-chop foolishness.

I love the orange room! Love the use of paint!
