Can't Decide Between Two Floors! Please Help!
Comments (9)I'm sorry I can't select which tile would be better for you based on your pictures, but I can tell you about my own experience when we selected tiles for our master bath. Granted, they were builder's grade ceramic so the quality wasn't there, but one was called "white" and the other "beige". The woman at the design center said go with the white since our sinks, toilet and tub were white so we did. Well, the "white" tiles also had pinkish undertones, probably moreso than your tile. And when the room was completed, they gave a strong pink cast to the entire room. So, try to look at the floor in all lighting situations especially when natural light hits it. Whatever undertones there are will be amplified when the entire floor is covered with it. Had I given it more thought, I definitely would've gone with the "beige" tile....See MorePlease Help!!!

Comments (12)Well... mine is Monsoon Wave soapstone fabricated and installed by Florida Joshua. He didn't stock it at his yard so I flew up to Jersey (incorporated it with a trip to see both my boys who live in NY), picked out my slabs, and had them shipped to Joshua. I live in So. Fla. so he had to take a couple of trips down here to measure, fabricate, and install. It went perfectly and even though it was a HUGE splurge for me; I would do it again in a heartbeat. It is beyond functional, beautiful, and takes a beating without issue. I can go without waxing for a couple of months and fall in love with the kinda washed black denim look of it. Then I'll get in the mood to shine it up and fall in love again with the vibrant sea glass colors that run through this stone. If you have the chance to use Joshua... it's worth every single penny and more....See MoreColor help please, can't decide!
Comments (14)A huge THANK YOU for all who posted. It helped me more than you know, I really appreciate the help. I thought about the yellow with the beige as well and I know yellow makes beige look dirty unless its a super light beige. I thought the Hearts of Palm was just what I needed, its a feel good color, and I realize I have that color in accents in other places, and it really coordinates well with the rest of my house. I would have ruled it out on my own as being too bright but once I did a large sample on the wall I loved it. I wanted my bedroom to be cozy and happy looking and I think it will do very well and looks great with white. So thanks again, maybe I will get up the nerve to post once I am done, although I have some things to be done before I paint. But just wanted to make sure I let everyone know how much it helped me....See MorePlease help decide! Can’t choose anything!
Comments (123)alwaysundecided - I'd love to post pix but I'm a pretty private person (sorry). Like yourself, I like certain things (that may not always mesh together), and I buy them and then play around (often moving them from place to place/room to room), until I have an 'aha' moment. I think you are doing great on your own, and the only thing you are missing is 'self confidence'. Remember, this is YOUR space and no one knows your taste (or has to live with it), other than you and whomever lives with you. We can all share with you our taste/suggestions/etc., but ultimately you are the decision maker. Having said all that, I personally think having night stand (regardless of it being mirrored or not), with a mirror in the back, no longer leaves room for a lamp - too crowded. As well, I think the whole purpose of a night stand is to place things on top of them, and if you have a lamp there it takes away from useable space. Have you considered/thought about small hanging chandeliers placed directly above the nightstands? Low enough so that you can see some of the crystal reflections in the mirror, but not too low that it takes away from the visibility of the mirror?...See MoreKim M
