Please help me decorate my bathroom! (Thank you!)
Comments (9)That looks like a room I would have. I'd go with hershey bar chocolate brown and werther's butterscotch gold and maybe some off white. Maybe stripe or figured towels? I didn't see a shower. Maybe a mirror on that long wall? There are lots of oval stenciled ones around. I know. I've been looking at mirrors. I like yours a lot. Tell me about it. Maybe another one with a similar frame hung the long way? It looks like your medicine cabinet is about half way of the long wall? Then build your art work around the mirror? It might add some depth, too. I drag home 3 or 4 times as many things as I think I will use, hold them up and return the ones that don't cut it. I'll be doing that real soon. I want to have my paper up first. Yup. Papering. There's something about paper that speaks to me....See MoreDecorating help in odd walkway/family room space
Comments (14)The 3 seater sofa should align with the long end of the rug and form an appropriate divider from your walk way. I would then place the chair and a half at right angles to the sofa. I think it balances better to have the two matching slipper chairs opposite the large chair. Better for viewing the TV also. I would consider a long console table with two smaller chairs placed on either side. If you need to store chairs for your dining area, this would be the place to do it....See MorePlease help with odd layout. I'm totally out of ideas (and my mind)
Comments (8)You've done nice work so far. The kitchen is beautiful and so is the floor. I just have a couple of comments. I think your current seating arrangement is as good as it's going to get. I wouldn't buy a loveseat if you can fit two sofas instead. Put a sofa table behind the one facing the TV to will help to define the entrance. Square the TV cabinet up to the wall. Then either put the TV on a swivel or on an articulating arm to adjust for viewing. I like whitewashed fireplaces, so I would start there. You can always paint it if you don't like it, but you can't go the other way. As for style and color, save your favorite rooms in your living room ideabook. I see you already have two, both neutral, both transitional. Try to identify what it is about each room that you like. You will eventually either get a clear vision for the space...or be totally confused and run back here screaming and we'll help you sort it out. ;-)...See MoreHelp me finish off my floating home!
