Decorating Dining Rooms en-us Tue, 24 Nov 2009 05:38:55 EST http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/tech/rss 5 Newlyweds quickly discover that marrying a lifetime of possessions collected by each partner can be a bit of a challenge. Actress Rebecca Budig and musician Bob Guiney are no exception. The All My Children star and the subject of the talked-about reality series The Bachelor were known to millions of television viewers individually before they found storybook romance with each other. But at home together, Rebecca and Bob are no different from any other couple, trying to merge his-and-her accumulated belongings and find common ground despite their somewhat different tastes. As it turns out, she favors antiques and traditional furnishings with plenty of decorative detail, while he prefers an unadorned, contemporary vibe yet both are fans of Country Living. "I've been reading it every month for years, and pulling out pages for inspiration," Rebecca says. So, for suggestions on how to merge their two tastes in one living space, the couple turned to Country Living, and Senior Lifestyle Editor Nicole Esposito Polly was happy to help them achieve a harmonious union of old and new, country comfort and city sophistication.TO SEE HOW REBECCA AND BOB COMBINED THEIR STYLES, VIEW THE PHOTO GALLERY.
