Here are my antique slipper chairs (in storage upstairs): And, I have this Eastlake Beehive bench with Napoleon bee upholstery: I don't think any of these, even with reupholstery into better colors, will work in the bath. I'm unpacking boxes and finding Spode blue & white vases; blue pottery, etc. I need to take an inventory of what I have, and have forgotten about, in this very long move. Things have been boxed up since May and June of last year.

Thanks Tartan- I was hoping you would see this. Yeah, the thing is for the offwhite it's in the reviews that people mention it is more of a gray than a cream... I can't tell. I know originally we felt that off-white was the way to go. The depth on this one, chatham is great (it' s the skinniest one of all the ones I considered). The reviews are outstanding- but the color scares me and the mahogany, looks good. Although my coffee table and end table are wood ( I think fruit wood). The size thing came up because I keep seeing suggestions that the console under the tv should be about 1/4 to 1/3 larger than the TV. The tv on that wall is not really centered on the wall- there is a light switch which I kind of didn't include in the wall. It was the outstanding decorators above, Flo and others who said I should go about 52-55 inches wide. Help me out, the TV is a 50 inch (diagonal) so the width is about 44 or 45 inches. !/3 larger would be 60 inches, 1/4 larger woudl be 55 inches. The Chatham is 52/53 inches. You see why I can't decide anything? I did use tape to see and I will post those pix here. This is 52 inches And here is 60 inches. Do I have the tv stand butting up to the window or leave room like I have done? FWIW, the kitchen is my other next project so while it adjoins the living room and all, who knows what color wood I will have there. (debating wood vs off white. that should take me maybe another year to decide lol). Originally a few said that I shouldn't go for more wood tones, so that keeps me back to the off white. What do you think? I will repost some of the pix of the room that are further upthread. This below is across from the TV wall. other wall with fireplace. So what TV stand belongs in my room that I will be happy with? How's your clairvoyance working??:)

Thanks @Beverly - this is meant to be a 'light' and neutral room. Sort of - I struggle with that because I like color and the neutral gets boring to me. I thought gray/tan would work together - I actually just bought that rug which is supposed to have the grays and browns pulled together lol. I should have pitched my idea here before buying. Thats def interesting with a more square art above the fireplace! I will have to play with that. @Patricia Colwell - thanks for making me draw the scale diagram. Def a useful exercise! Here is an image of the measurements and the logic behind my bench/daybed. Its one of my fav spots to sit and read as its south facing and looks out into my backyard.
