I like the table and chairs in the bottom picture. My other favorite is the oriental flavored chair in the first pic.
Win, I didn't know you had Canadian in you! LOL!
I don't. Is "eh" a Canadian word?
ETA: I looked it up.
Although eh has its roots in Middle English and did not originate in Canada, the interjection acts as marker of anglophone Canadian identity and distinguishes Canadian English from other dialects. Eh is internationally recognized as a uniquely Canadian form of speech, often to the point of exaggeration and stereotype.
It's used here big time.I don't. Is "eh" a Canadian word?

Even though you have no Canuck in you, Win, I say run with it, as you're a natural! LOL!

I prefer the casual cluttered country estate look where wet dogs, men with muddy boots, and kids with runny noses can all feel welcome and unafraid.
After a busy weekend just peel off the slipcovers jump in the Range Rover and head to the local laundrette!

You forgot the part about tracking the mud around the house, and not at all being concerned over the occasional spillage of a 'spot-of-tea', said with a UK accent. ROFLMAO!I prefer the casual cluttered country estate look where wet dogs, men with muddy boots, and kids with runny noses can all feel welcome and unafraid.

Yesterday, hub decided it was time to put the new toilet we'd ordered several months ago in...he started and was doing fine until he needed an extension on the water connector...went to Lowes, came home mumbling they didn't have it as it was an old style hook up, so he tried a "work around" (keep in mind he plumbed in 6 toilets and 5 full bathrooms in this joint himself... he actually built the home in 85, with a bit of help from mom and I and a couple laborers."
Well, things didn't go well ( always disliked plumbing). Found a leaky valve and it needed to be replaced by a real plumber unless he was planning to make a "career" out of it, so called the plumber to come out tomorrow. He said, cultivating the ability to see the ridiculous "if you want to use the downstairs powder room, just fill up a water bucket
from the swimming pool!" LOL.

I like the table and chairs too, but not the others. Much too busy for my taste.

I love a few of the pieces you've posted even though I'd never want them in my home. I prefer more plain furniture and artwork on the walls.

Pam my husband would have loved the first and maybe second chair you posted and my DIL would probably love the chair with the purple seat (that is a very interesting piece). I prefer contemporary, solid colored furniture in earth tones, adding a dashes of with accessories.

I have always loved those colourful chairs since I first saw them, however this house doesn't lend itself to those kind of petterns, and wouldn't match in, but if it did I'd have them in a heartbeat.
I've always wanted Tartan (plaid) carpet in the house too... it's very expensive to buy here, but I'd still have it but his nibs hates it so we can't have it...

trouble is there are no laundrettes in the countryside villages or hamlets...I prefer the casual cluttered country estate look where wet dogs, men with muddy boots, and kids with runny noses can all feel welcome and unafraid.

" eh " is an officially part of our Canadian language.......if you google, you'll find it.I don't. Is "eh" a Canadian word?

The pieces of decor are all very beautiful, but not for me.
I'm afraid i would have nightmares about seeing the color of my furniture in the dark, they probably glow in the dark.
Please, no offense to anyone.
