Theres' like a crack in between the walls and I can envision that being sort of annoying. you may want to like build both walls together instead of independently.
The piano looks pretty impressive, very grand. 
Although if you where to use it as a prop in a set it'll have to be a pretty big set.
Good, but it's not to minfig scale. It looks like a Technic figure should be sitting at it. If you made it smaller (not as tall, not as long, and not as wide), it would be in scale.

Thank you! Yes, the two sets that it will be in are pretty big.

Yeah, but I'm not sure that I can keep the same look on a smaller scale.
That, and when a piano falls out of the sky and smashes someone, scale isn't that important. In that case, the bigger the better.

You mean that smaller means not as tall, not as long, and not as wide? Wow, what a revelation! 
Wow well done its fantastic
Nice work, perhaps you should add garland too, it looks great when used right.
I was considering that but I was unsure about what pieces to use.
The brick detail is really incredible.
That looks like a set you made for A Red River Flows a while ago. Is it the same building or did I mix them up? The wreath is a nice touch, and I love the greebles.
Here's a house set I made for a New Year's film I'll be making.
Looks okay. Just as a general interior design rule, you usually don't want plain white walls; most houses have an off-white, which could be done with tan; however, seeing as tan LEGO pieces aren't the most accessible in large quantities, the white walls are acceptable. Personally I'd still try using a different color, but I digress. Next thing, still about the walls: usually you'll want to break up a wall, especially one that's white. A stripe of some other color, two or three bricks from the floor, should create an effect that is much much more pleasing to the eye. If you don't have enough bricks to make a stripe of another color, then I'd suggest adding more furniture.
The color scheme for the furniture is not too bad, brown and dark tan. It seems out of place with the white walls, to be perfectly honest; dark tan and brown is more official, to me, and would be more appropriate in an office building or a mansion, but it's not enough of a problem for me to suggest changing it. I'd suggest adding more furniture, and possibly a rug; you have a lot of empty space in the room, and with such plain walls and floor, it seems extremely bare to me.
The TV is odd, in my opinion. You have antennae, but it also seems to be a flat-screen, which doesn't really make any sense. The TV stand is also odd; blue doesn't fit in with anything else in the room except that blue door, and it doesn't match with any of the other furniture.
Overall you have a decent start, but you might want to add more detail, in terms of both more props and a more advanced design on the walls (a stripe as opposed to just a plain color). Hope this helps!
Okay, here's the updated set:
In the film, the main character rearranges the furniture and gets rid of the tree, so if placing is bad, it will be changed. : P
Looks much better! And the red stripe really adds a festive look 
Better, but again with the TV? I think it would look better with plates on the top and bottom and bricks on the sides. Those bricks and plates would be a different color, like grey. The black would still be in the middle, so it looks like a screen. Also, I think it should be two studs thick.
That cheese slope light switch you have there, I think it would be better if you fixed it to the wall with a headlight brick. It makes it reccesed into the wall a bit, hiding the flat edge on top. I find it looks more like a light switch than what you have there. Moving it a stud away from the door would be better, too.
Thanks for the feedback, guys!
