Two different floors next to each other (open floor plan kitchen)
Comments (16)Hey, everyone! Thanks for your advice! We'll be changing the cabinets to white shakers. They definitely look like it would be a good match if we go with a lighter cabinet. I'm not sure about the floor material, but it was stained before. I've been running some looks, and I can't quite find a tile that I think looks too great here. We're considering trying to extend the floor, but we'll need to take a piece over to get it matched at a flooring store....See MoreWhich way to lay different flooring up against each other?
Comments (3)IMO fake wood look tile is adated and never works next to real wood .Why all the different wood tones ? IMO go with a simple porcelain tile 12 x24 in the bathroom in the same color family as the wood floor in the bedroom....See MoreWould you hang these together, near each other, or just NO?
Comments (30)Fori, could you find a blue frame for the print, perhaps with a gold-ish or brass filet around the inside perimeter of the frame? Or perhaps a blue frame with a portion of the profile edged in gold leaf? Or a darker gold frame with a portion of the frame profile in antiqued blue? I don’t think this is a question of ”use them or not?” It could be a ”how can I use them?” question. Since I don’t think the print is framed to its advantage (black is always the defsult but IMO rarely a good choice) that seems a good place to start. Not this per se, but you get the idea, gold frame with blue and gold bead filet. This one is more suited to a print and is available in a variety of sizes on etsy: The houzz site will not allow me to paste an etsy link. it was the first image when i googled images for: painting frame blue and gold...See MoreCan you put non-matching wood flooring next to each other?
Comments (15)We have different wood floors in different rooms, which we did on purpose. It doesn't look like an "oops", as the rooms serve different purposes and there's no reason for them not to be distinct. (we also don't paint all of our walls in the house the same colors, horrors!) The current mania for making everything match will pass in time. Hardwood is, IMO, the best flooring for kitchens I've ever had. Easy on the feet, looks nice, and you usually get at least one bounce to catch dropped objects. Have done vinyl, ceramic tile, and even, heaven forbid, carpet (it was a rental). In an old house I'd certainly consider real linoleum, but have been perfectly happy with maple for the last several decades. Ceramic tile would be my last choice (well, not counting carpet)....See MoreJuan Ramirez
