matching is back?
Comments (19)I don't think it really matters if it's 'back' or not. It's a *choice* to have all tables, upholstered peces, bedroom set, dining room furniture, or whatever match and be of the same style and finish. Even though it may be old school it's still a good look, and very popular with many homeowners who choose not to go outside the box if they're not comfortable with it. As for nail polish/lipstick or purse/shoes matching, I still subscribe to the theory it looks more pulled together, but definitely old school. In that respect, I guess I have to say I'm an old fashioned girl....See MoreDoes you have black coffee table/end table/sofa tables? Pics ?!
Comments (10)Why yes, I does :). I have a black coffee table with a lot of brown in the room. Leather couch/chairs and wooden tables and miscellaneous pieces like the tv shelf. My table is from Thomasville. Here's the advertisement version: I've got a couple of pictures that show it in my room, though not all that well. Here they are: Another angle: I think it all works fine. I will add that the wood accent pieces in the LR tend to the tobacco/darker range. I don't have light wood or leather in there. Hope this helps, Ann...See MoreCoffee table choices (so far) for my ever evolving LR
Comments (14)Thanks for all the votes! It seems like the rectangular #1 or #5 in an oval (or maybe even round) are the front runners right now. Those are probably my front runners, too. I found another furniture store in the area that has the first table shown on their website, so I may try to get over there and take a look at the finish. I just am very reluctant to order such a large item on the internet and then have to return it!! One of my thoughts, tho, about using a rectangular coffee table is that the sofa is basically a rectangle and the rug is a rectangle, so I thought something round or oval would be better. I am totally open to changing the round, pedestal side table. I'm kinda ready for a change there as well. I have been looking on CL and so far, have come up with nothing. I'm also watching for something to come into the consignment shop where I volunteer. In the meantime, I'm going to visit a few more furniture stores and keep watching CL and consignment....See MoreMultifunctional LR side table that will go with decor. Stumped.
Comments (15)Thank you all for your suggestions.... Olychick is right: I would need to find a table or nesting tables that are tall enough to eat off of. Because I eat routinely in front of the TV and have nowhere to tuck a folding TV tray that can't be seen ( open concept condo) I think I will rule that out. The other design considerations that I am questioning are: do I need to go with a more solid side table. Because I already have a "piece-y" looking coffee table (glass with metal frame + nesting). And to the right of the living room "entrance" is a dining room with a glass dining table and metal legs. 2. Colour….Because I already have mustard gold chairs and gold metal trimmed coffee table, would throwing in another sort of gold be too much. Should I go with black? Thanks all for noodling this through with me....See Moreindygo
