Am I on the right track?
Comments (34)Marcolo, we definitely need drapes - not so much for privacy (we have a about 24" inches between our house and neighbors and conveniently, our windows don't "match up"- but for a bit of texture and color. I will have to see if 108" will do it. There is a pillow coming for the bed, and M made a series of little 3D paper frames that spell her name that I will hang over the bed once I get the hardware to install the hanging knobs. I am putting up a large corkboard on the wall that cannot be seen from the "public spaces" of the house so she can hang whatever notices, etc. there. We also have a peg board where she hangs her karate belts on the back of the closet door. None of that stuff is in yet :-) I am just enjoying the lack of "stuff" (of course, the Littlest Pet Shop is out in the formal living room, so it's all smoke and mirrors!) Thanks for all the kind words - this room was actually quite easy and fun to do. Usually, I labor over stuff forever and then don't really get it where I want it. Maybe I should get out of my comfort zone more often!...See MoreProgress update...Am I on the right track here?
Comments (18)So far I think you're right on track! It looks really nice and pulled together. W/o reading the other comments (I'm so easily influenced): I think that ths scroll work piece above the fireplace is nice but could be better. The area seems a little 'light-weight' so I thought of 2 options: 1: A heavier picture w/ in subued colors w/ a beautiful hint of apple green would look wonderful. or 2: Raise the scroll work a bit and if the fireplace ledge is wide enough add a row of granny smith apples on it. I think a 3rd drapery panel would take it to the next level of layering which would be great. All in all you've doen a really great job! After reading the other comments: Def. agree w/ adding a chair to bring the fireplace back into the area, adding it in a fun print or color is very magazine worthy as suggested by ksw. Def. one long rod....See MoreAm I on the right track with my exterior colors?

Comments (19)Well how nice to be called an angel today! Made my day. The soapstone does not have any green in it- charcoal grey with caramel & white veining. I chose it for the color but it is VERY soft. The scratches kind of go with the age of the house so I don't sweat it too much but it does chip very easily. I had a much harder variety in another house that did have more of a green tint to it. Love the drain runnels for both looks and practicality- since the sink wasn't centered under the window we did the runnels to offset the imbalance. The glass doors open to a walk-in pantry and access to the AC behind the fridge/micro run. I think that door is new but previous owner installed it so not sure- the glass is frosted to hide a multitude of sins. The front of the house was built in 1924 and the addition (in 2000) starts right around where the sunflowers are on the counter. Previous owners added a family room and back staircase down and master up. We used Pale Oak throughout the downstairs and second floor landing. It's a great neutral color. It looks more taupe than grey in my house but is chameleon like. I would definitely get a sample, paint it on a poster board and try it in different places in your house. It offers just enough contrast between trim and walls. Hope your reno goes well- I'm always jealous when I hear someone starting a renovation, then I think back to the reality!...See MoreRelated Professionals
