White or White Wash Wicker for guest bedroom?
Comments (10)kswl, your post came at a perfect time. I slept so poorly an had a dream that I bought the white wicker dresser and added white crochet runners to the sides of the book cases to make them go better and added a white framed picture on the other side of the room. I am in the middle of so many deadlines and not sleeping at night from back and neck pain and now I seem to have this need to have my home neat and looking nice in all rooms and not just my beautiful Master bedroom that now is all matching. I do not have the cherry wood here in person and it could be a different shade also and not match and will hold less clothes and then if I move and the set is discontinued then maybe I will not be able to add more pieces of furniture. I think you are right that my first impression that the wicker dresser is grown up looking, fresh and pretty and is very versatile in matching other colors and adding on white wicker pieces in the future is doable if I ever move. The dresser will fit that wall and if I take all the plastic drawers out from the middle of the room and that wall, it may look nice and not overwhelmingly too big for the room. I can make other parts of the room match the white wicker dresser by adding white in other places. I wish I was not in the middle of these deadlines so I could take pictures and post them but I am overwhelmed as it is in getting done my work and have been second guessing my decision which was based on finding out that I was not allergic to the white wicker hampers I bought from Fran's wicker and found out I loved the white wicker in my laundry room. Then I thought that maybe I should just get a wicker dresser in my spare room from this place that has wicker that is not outgassing like other places. Then I saw the size of the drawers of this set and they gave me 12% off and since I live in driving distance from the store, I could save on shipping. Then I saw on their website that the White Wash finish was a color I had not considered so I got confused if I should switch to the white wash finish and put the order on hold until I get a chance to go to the store. Hence, I shared the pictures I sent to the list with a friend last night and she felt I needed a cherry dresser. But to buy a solid wood cherry dresser usually takes ordering from a retailer that orders from a special company that could take weeks and may not give me a good price on one piece of furniture....See MoreDo I have enough room in Guest Bedroom?
Comments (40)Hi Cp, I just happened to check out the decorating forum and saw your thread. I just learned last night how to use Paint. Now I cannot stop! I played with a WAY out of the box idea. I am sure it is a no-go as it might effect the ceilings below in the living room. I know you plan those gorgeous built ins next to the fireplace. I will post it anyways though. I owe you big time for helping me on my cabin plan, but somehow I don't think THIS one counts as returning the favor. LOL! It is a little crazy, but I was trying to figure out how to use the wasted space in the long hallway by stairs. I was thinking, what about a T-shaped staircase where at the landing the stairs split. The one side goes into the bedroom and the other to your art studio. You could do a second door by the elavator hallway to get to the bathroom. It would give plenty space for the murphy bed anyways. ;-)...See MoreNeed help with finishing touches for guest bedroom
Comments (18)Ingrid, I am a retired children's librarian and I was drawn to the colorful pillows because they reminded me of the illustrations in the old picture books from the sixties. That was very perceptive of you to get a child's vibe from that. I totally agree-no more blue! I love the idea of botanical prints and have been looking online for something with yellow and pink or red. When we get the furniture arranged, I'll hang the art over the bed lower as you suggest. katinparadise, I like the idea to paint the blue frames black. And thanks for the folding advice for the throw. I'm actually wondering if a different throw would look better. Would a different color look better? Red, darkish yellow? I never realized that blues are so hard to match. mrykbee, I'm still eying that cute little rocker you showed me yesterday and I love the welcome basket idea. I had the same thought about taking the mirror off during the winter months when we need to use the thermostat. auntthelma, I agree that moving the thermostat would be the best solution. I just painted this room myself last month and got my husband to get rid of the old intercom grill. I don't know why we didn't think about moving the thermostat at the same time. The good thing is, we're both pretty handy and I have leftover paint, so hopefully we can get ourselves in gear and just move it. I do not understand why they put it where it is. The heater is on the opposite wall! But I do love the baseboard heaters with each room having its own control. Thank you all so much for your suggestions. My 91-year-old dad often visits us for weeks on end and I think he'll get a kick out of the new, fancy surroundings....See MoreFinishing touches on pink master bedroom: PLEASE HELP!
