Bedroom Refresh- Feeling a Little Lost
Comments (5)Thank you for the replies so far. I started looking at white/cream curtains and found some I really like. I showed them to my husband and he reminded me that the window faces east and the morning sun is intense. The window is something like 96" wide, so a lot of light and heat can be let in. We have such dark curtains now that I forgot all about that. I need something darkish and lined, or white/ cream panels with a blackout lining. I can't believe I forgot that - I guess I got a little caught up in color and forgot about practicality. Oops. I'm taking out the builder grade faux wood blinds we have and using sheers along with whatever curtains I end up with. I guess the question comes down to getting the blue curtains (lined or blackout lined) and either replacing the bathroom rug or dealing with it as is, or trying to find white or cream curtains with a blackout lining....See MoreI either need affirmation or reality check, should I get this??
Comments (12)Since you would be using the duvet cover for your summer bedding, you don't even have to buy a duvet. (There! I saved you money! Now you can buy it.) When I used a duvet cover, I used a down comforter inside during the winter and nothing inside during the summer. It's just like a coverlet, with a big pocket inside ;-). The duvet cover you show would look gorgeous in the summer with blue or green shams ... You could even find some rusty-red shams and let it take you right into fall. I just love mix-and-match bedding. If you buy it, you have to post a new picture!...See MoreShould I feel blue over Feeling Blue???
Comments (18)blue is a wax coating on the leaf .... new growth is always bluest ... and then it starts wearing off ... lawn sprinklers ... rain ... especially when hot .. and wax is soft .. the blue also reflects the sky ... so color changes on cloudy days ... and when taking pix.. the bluest pic will be taken at dusk ... when the sky flashes pink ... i cant believe the 2 and 3rd pix are the same plant ... it looks just fine ... the top most needles ... must have taken a hit at transplant ... it will look much better .... after it leafs out for spring ... ken...See MoreWhy does this arc lamp feel off?
Comments (12)Watch your scale here. I think you'll find that the bistro height table and coffee table aren't really working together. The table and stools look suitable for snacking, but not for comfortable dining. They appear to be taller than the back of the sofa, so scale there is off too. Consider a lift top coffee table that converts for dining or working, especially if you're just a survival cook and don't really prepare fancy meals or entertain. If you do entertain, a standard height table and chairs can also take advantage of an arc lamp when you have guests to dine....See MoreRory (Zone 6b)
