Hutch dilemma - what color would work best
Comments (58)I have a very similar piece, made of hard rock maple. The hardware on mine is in excellent condition, much like yours, and I would never consider replacing it. You wouldn’t find anything current that would look appropriate, or be as well made, IMHO. I don’t feel it’s “dated” - it’s authentic for the piece....See MoreWhat kind of Dining table with bench would look good in this space?
Comments (4)Benches are great for kids and I suggest having only one bench if you really want it and putting chairs at the head and end of the table along with chairs on the opposite side. You want to think about if you have guests or relatives over with health issues. Well made chairs with backs work best for them! My dining room table is similar to this and it does have a leaf for when we have several people over for dinner!...See MoreHelp w. replacement rug? What would work in this space? Thanks!
Comments (9)I think that my inspo pic just crashed into reality. I'll start looking for a low-pile carpet with muted colors and/or an indoor/outdoor rug. I've added some pics of the other half of the room as I was putting it together. The major furniture pieces are the same; the office area is being used as a de-Christmasing staging area and I can't take pics right now. If the new mirror was too high, just wait for this one. Yikes! In my defense, there was a tall piece of furniture below the mirror with the gold frame. When I moved the piece of furniture, I didn't lower the mirror. Now I have the inspiration to do it! I really loved the look of the shag rug for the hot minute that it was clean, but I think my inspo pic won't stand up to every day life. Thanks for your help, everyone!...See MoreWhat rug would work best under this L shape desk in my home office
Comments (22)Wow, so excited to see such good and varied inputs on my request! Thanks @Flo Mangan - I am now certainly going for a ladder shelf for the corner. I am not sure of moving the desk away from its existing place for precisely the reasons @functionthenlook mentioned - my desk job can sometimes result in 8-9 hours, and I do plenty of video calls throughout the day. So not only is it nice for me to have a view (which BTW Flo is right, it is limited since the windows are a bit above my eye level (photo of the view below)) but it is also pleasant to have light on my face. Further, the remaining space in the room comes in handy when the occasional extra guests stay over and the sofa beds need to be pulled out. Thanks everyone for all the rug options - this weekend is going to be (window) shopping weekend :)...See MoreNiraj Shrestha
