Paint and decor ideas to add warmth to a newly built home
Comments (3)How long have you been in the home? Generally, as with other major life events, you shouldn't make any major decisions for a year. Live in it, learn how it functions for you, see how the light changes things over the passing of seasons. You may learn to appreciate many of the things you now think need changing, ant others you haven't thought to change will demand it. Lack of color will probably be one of the major issues for you, but that is easily changed with the addition of pillows, throws, a new rug or drapes. This will also give you time to build a few ideabooks here on HOUZZ to help you get the exact direction you want to take sorted out....See MorePaint and decor ideas to add warmth to a newly built home
Comments (9)the number one thing, move that sofa out of the doorway. pull the rug and sofa floating in the room. center the rug and put the front legs of the sofa on it. the chair looks like it was part of a sectional? is that true, if so I would take it out and bring in the chair you have in the dining area and that love seat. put the love seat to the window side and the chair to the other side angles. you have a great touch of blue in the island, bring that into the other room in touches, patterned curtains, pillows, and in art work. splash it around and let it be the first bit of color it will lead you into others....See MoreNewly painted, now need assistance with wall decor
Comments (9)I think the sectional is to big for the space. Maybe you could shift the sectional away from the fireplace and closer to the tv, if there’s enough room? Or do you have another room you could swap the furniture out? Not sure what to do with the tv wall. I’m a fan of leaving those blank as long as it isn’t huge. I would also consider art that is more horizontal over the fireplace, I think it would look better....See MoreNeed help in newly bought house curb appeal
Comments (14)THANK YOU! I was wondering what 'type' it most closely resembles and what would look natural. The road has no sidewalk so i guess i could just extend it to the driveway. The house is cleaner in person than what it looks like LOL.. I'd love to hear about Victorian touches and shutter/door/banister paints that would look nice. I'd love to get a quick 'photo mockup' if possible, but i have no idea who or where to go :)...See Moretluna
