Cream navy LR - pictures, anyone?
Comments (13)oo, love that hall! I haven't found the slideshow function on houzz yet. Gotta try that. I have another rug they could use that has about the same level of wear as this one. I've always liked it and didn't worry about wear on an antique oriental rug. Do you think this looks too worn? Mine is a navy border with a closed raspberry field. There are touches of camel and sage green in the border and the field.

Comments (6)A tan linen curtain would look great with your sofa and walls. Target has some nice inexpensive choices. I would reconsider rehanging your rods a little higher and wider if the stock curtains sizes allow. Then get some brighter sofa pillows that pull the blue out of the rug. I would also consider a blue tray for your coffee table. As mentioned above, the least expensive option would be to get some red/cranberry pillows for your sofa and some red accessories for the living area. Then the living space and the curtains would relate....See Morewhat curtain color goes with mustard and navy blue sofa
Comments (17)The rug is OK and I am loathe to tell someone to spend extra money when they just asked about curtains, but if you have an alternate spot for the rug or don't mind donating it to charity or something, I think you could do better with a different rug. The rug you have is nice, but very geometric and a whole different color palette than the couch. They kind of fight for dominance in the room. You might be able to find a rug that plays nicer with your couch, in terms of color and design. Maybe just work on the curtains, not worry too much about the rug, but then after you get the curtains, keep your eyes out for a better rug that "ties the room together." (Esoteric movie reference from "The Big Lebowski.") Use the floral design from the couch as your color palette when making choices for the room. Don't worry about the walls, they are pale enough to fade into the background once you get the curtains and some art up on the walls....See MoreWhat curtain colors for BM Metropolitan walls/hale navy built ins?
Comments (5)A coordinate with both colors is a spring green. Just a touch in a fabric is enough to brighten things up. I don’t. know your style of decor, but this suggestion is just for some color ideas. 6701413 P KAUFMANN MODERNISM 003 AEGEAN FLORAL PRINT FABRIC @ $15.00 per yd....See MoreElaine Y
