Question for those who've done old window art
Comments (32)@dizzyizzy I haven't tried this (they are fabulous, so much talent around here) but I think it depends how much effort you want to put in and where your located. We have an architectural salvage store where you could walk in and buy an older window anywhere from $30-$100+ depending on size, condition, # of panes, etc. Easy but you're paying for it. You could also check out Craigslist. I've seen them on there from $5-$50+. Less expensive but more hit or miss. Then you could look around on trash day or look for a remodel job and score them at the curb for free. I like the last option. Part of the fun is the hunt....See MoreThe Art in this Television Commercial .. Crescent Rolls?
Comments (21)Please, donÂt suggest copying someoneÂs artwork! Artists have it hard enough as it is without people thinking the fruits of our creativity do not deserve to be to be paid for. Asking the agency for the name of the artist is a much better idea. If the OP likes the colors she or a friend can paint something in similar colors, that is ORIGINAL, without having to copy someone elseÂs idea. You would not want your interior décor to be a copy of someone elseÂs would you? You can follow a theme or color scheme and still make it your own. It will be much more personal and rewarding in the end. I speak from experience, having seen my ink drawing reproduced on thousands of shopping bags used by a museum, for which I received not one dime. I did scientific drawings for a researcher for a paper and after he died they were ripped off and used. He would never have agreed to this use nor would I have. When by sheer chance I happened to walk into the museum store and see people walking by carrying bags with my drawing on them blown up, it was like being kicked in the stomach. It still gives me a sick feeling....See MoreArt and Accessory Help
Comments (9)need, "you MUST do this and this is how" advice OK, you MUST relax and enjoy the process of decorating. LOL You are in the same position as so many who feel that decorating will at some time be "finished". I don't buy into that because a good room should continue to evolve and change with the seasons, time, and your personal growth/change. You have a very good base from which to continue decorating this room. I like everything in the room (not that that matters much) and hope you will continue to collect accessories and art OVER TIME. I recommend searching antique stores and other pre-owned venues for items which have the patina of years which will add so much to this room. If you have not already done so you should place color chips, upholstery and drapery samples, even a photo or two in a small baggie and take it with you as you shop. Find things that you love and would hate to leave in the store. Those are the accessories that will mean something to you in the future. If you have any family "heirlooms" gathering dust bring them out and try them. If not, find other people's family heirlooms and use them. Congrats on a job well done so far, you will continue to decorate well and I wish you much enjoyment on the process....See MoreWanted! Good eye for corner art! Mockup skills a bonus!
Comments (11833)As for what comes first, the art or the chandelier. Not sure, but my first thought is that the chandelier position will be based on the table, meaning the bottom part of the chandelier will only be x to y inches above the table. Heres an article that helps explain range and how to adjust based on ceiling height... https://www.tidbitsandtwine.com/chandelier-height-above-table/#:~:text=For a 9-foot ceiling,in proportion with the room....See Morebbstx
