Does this picture go in this room? (PICS)

13 years ago

I found this picture that I really like but not sure it goes in the room where I need a picture. I have a LR/DR combo and I am going for somewhat contemporary (if that's a style). These pictures are older except for the new picture. Please let me know your thoughts:

I can see that picture in that spot. Is that a Kirkland Home picture? I like it!

I vote to at least try it there. The room looks great. Have someone hold it up there while you take a look. What size is the new picture?

Thank you mydreamhome and gmp3 for the reply! Gmp3, we are in the same boat. My space is only 31" wide, very difficult to find a dresser that can fit in.

What era is this chair & does it go with my room style?
Q
Comments (4)
Thank you! Now... just what era IS the chair?! My son looked at it and said it reminded him of something from Star Trek or the Jetsons! Maybe that's why I liked it - I always loved those shows. Chairs seem to be my achilles heel at this point. I'm still not sure about the other chair in the photo, either. I want a pair to sit side by side there - but this is what I already had so I put it there just to see how that style would look. Seems to do ok, but there just seem to be so many other styles out there (slipper style, chinese chippendale, regency, etc.?) that might look as good or better. I admit to just getting overwhelmed sometimes with all the decisions! What chairs, what drapes, what rug, what furniture...! Oh - and what size and scale, too! Obviously it's an art to be have a vision and make it all come together. Which is why I'm sure good interior decorators are worth their weight in gold - unfortunately,however, I don't have much of that precious commodity laying about! So, I'm hoping you more experienced members here will be willing to nudge me along as I continue on with this decorating endeavor!

Dining table lazy susan design, does it go with the rest of the room
Q
Comments (16)
Hi, was wondering does anyone have thoughts on the mosaic mirror. Will it look too much mosaic if I decide to go with the mosaic pattern on the lazy susan? Though I am leaning towards painting it for now, as its much easier. Also will the round mirror look too much round shapey with the round table and round lazy susan. I have also been looking at this copper lazy susan from wayfair (this would save me time, to buy ready made). Would it look nice with the wooden table. Its the right size (30"). Most of the other glass ones I have seen are smaller (24").

Nothing would enrich your lovely home more than a piece of original art. I don't think that poster\reproduction does your room justice.

What a charming home!

I would put the mirror that is currently over the credenza on the entry wall, which not only bounces light around but serves a practical purpose, and put the new artwork above the credenza.

I would also look for a runner that goes from the entry door to a bit short of the end of the wall space, to give that area more presence.

Finally, think about switching the leather and the fabric chairs, so that the less bulky feeling chair is near the front door - less of a visual ÂblockÂ when you enter.

I agree with Les about moving the mirror near the door and placing new art where mirror was. I also agree about switching the 2 chairs. I think the new art will look great and add a new dimension to the room.

Thanks everyone.

Lukkiirish--Yes, it came from Kirklands, love that store.

Les and Three--I am going to move it all around today and see how it looks. Thanks for the suggestion.
