What is this room missing? Pics
Comments (22)Hi all, Thank you for your ideas. I've been writing them all down. Les I think you're totally right, warm tones is what's missing. I really like your ski hat idea and plywood headboard. Do you have any pattern suggestions that would look good with the bedding? What color shade? His desk and hutch are black if that helps any. Newhomebuilder is correct about his room. We removed everything off the walls before getting the room painted. It's only been a few weeks and DS is waiting for his desk and hutch to come in before putting everything back. The lamp is definitely too short but it was meant to be temporary. As far as letting him decide he really could care less. He's 14 and everytime I ask him what he'd like in his room he just looks at me like I'm an alien. DH gets a good laugh everytime I say to DS "You really don't care what I put in the room?". His response "who cares, I just sleep in there" followed by a "mom, just so long as my bed stays comfortable". He does like the snowboarding decal and I think around his arched window would look cool. His BR definitely gets a ton of natural light but he prefers the cave like feel and never opens his shutters. If I painted the lower half a darker gray I think he'd stub his toe on the way to his bathroom. That's if he doesn't slip and fall on the dirty laundry laying all over his floor. Teenagers can be so disgusting. ideefix very wise advice, I let that hang up go 10 years ago. Teacats DD(16) is getting silver framed corkboard for her room. I hadn't thought about that for DS but that would work in his room. When you say silver kitchen shelving do you mean standing ones?...See MoreBlack spot or something else?
Comments (14)The product shown is neem oil with the azadirachtin removed. It will burn leaves in hot weather, as will baking soda--or even in moderate weather if the plants were not well hydrated before spraying. The large purple smears could be spray damage. Neither of these products gives very good control of spot diseases. The bad foliage has several problems, not altogether clear what. As suggested above, the definite white spots are where rose slugs have peeled off the undersurface, leaving a translucent window. You have a very mild case so far. Just wipe the worms off the underside, or ignore it. I don't know what to make of the fine white speckling and abraded look in images 2 and 3. I suspect rose mosaic virus, which is incurable but not usually a crippling problem. While some of the spots could be downy mildew symptoms, you can be sure that leaves with active DM will drop off the stems within a week or so. If spotted leaves do not drop, it isn't DM. Also DM usually attacks the newest foliage first. I don't see any spots that look like blackspot (fringy or notched). Anyway, KO is virtually immune. However, KO commonly gets cercospora spot disease in my area. Some of the spots are probably that. It won't likely be a significant problem. Finally, brown discs lining the leaf margin are a reliable sign of fertilizer burn. Your rose may be suffering from too much TLC....See MoreA Black Cherry and something else
Comments (7)Hello Flo and Ken. You would think by now after ten years or so and hundreds of id's that I know know better! And I do have a Black Cherry mother plant on the property. I hope these help. And, I don't care what they are, just so I know, like friend or foe. Black Cherry? ? ? ? ?...See MoreIs my family room missing something?
Comments (68)I suggest getting a caramel colored velvet pillows that tie in the color of you kitchen cabinets which would be a lovely contrast to your sofa. maybe another one that is neutral will lots of texture and possibly change out the rug to something more interesting. pillows and curtains: I think more substantial fabric for the curtains would help as well....See More- 6 years ago
