Comments (14)The simplest and best solution is more lighting in your room. Add floor lamps or tables and table lamps on ends of sofas; change lamp next to TV Or add wall lamps where you think best.There are so many variations on bulb brightness and color and intensity nowadays. There are fixtures available to add under your kitchen counters to improve the light on your kitchen work surfaces. Any good Home Depot or Lowe's or Batteries and Bulbs Store can offer you the help you need. Lighting is basic; the size of your rug will not improve your lighting....See MoreDark green or peach, so I dare? Need help with paint for living room…
Comments (42)Hi Stephanie, I like your instincts for Jack Pine or something similar in the north room. I recently used SW Evergreen in a laundry closet. Now, after looking at your post, I am thinking it would be great in my north living room. I noticed that lamp light makes an interesting effect on my dark green that I never noticed in rooms with white walls. It creates an island of bright color. I am curious as to how that looks in a large dark room. I see pictures in this post. It looks dramatic and exciting. But is it so in reality? I think you can be more adventurous because there is a natural border defining your living room from y dining room. But what will you do on the wall going up that beautiful staircase?...See MoreThecrazeecow
