blue carpet - which paint color??
Comments (5)Several thoughts based on the idea that not everyone loves blue carpets: First, don't do anything, depending on your real estate market. In many parts of the country it's a buyers market, which generally means that sellers should keep their prices low instead of fixing up the house. I defer to your local broker on this subject, of course. Second, what about painting the walls a very light blue that will go well with the dark blue carpet? A pale blue-gray can look very sophisticated. (Warning: even I don't like all-blue houses. You need to have some warm tones in there somewhere to balance out the blue.) If the carpet is navy, white or cream can look very good in a nautical way. Finally, lots of people, including me, like blue and yellow together....See MoreNeed Ideas/Help/Suggestions on Kitchen Backsplash & .......
Comments (7)Furletcity, you have actually been very helpful. I hadn't thought about raisig the height of the window covering go give more height. I guess I've been thinking inside the box. Do you have a particular color of roman shade in mind? I'm not sure what salmon/pink cast looks like but the tile color is called illusione caramel. Sorry you had to go back and forth. I don't know how to post the pictures inside the messages without using links. I'm not sure about the scale either. Other suggestions for a backsplash? TIA. Roseabbey. Thanks for your suggestions. I wasn't thinking of using matching granite tiles for the backsplash but rather using one of the canaletto tiles with 3X3 granite inserts. You are right that the counter is dark. Do you have any thoughts as to what kind of cabinet lighting? Thanks again. Keep the ideas coming. TIA...See MoreBacksplash? No backsplash? What kind of backsplash?
Comments (25)didn't have time to read all the answers. I have no backsplash and have never regretted it...been over 6 yrs. It is painted with BM matte...which has ceramic in it. It is as beautiful now as it was when first painted. I love the fact that I can showcase other things ...art etc in my kitchen and no competition. Also if I ever want to change it is as quick as a paint brush...expense is minimal..paint only ! All in all I think it is serene as you point out . Here is one pick. Since I have a lot of high heat cooking in my kitchen..built in deep fat fryer as well as gas cook top I can definitely speak to the longevity of paint only. c ( more at this album )...See MoreKitchen backsplash height, existing 4" backsplash, and ending dilemma
Comments (9)I have a similar question five years later: Is the 4" matching back splash now out of style? And how long will it stay out of style? Doubt that it would be possible to get a full matching back splash 14 years after the home was built. I am considering removing the 4" back splash and going with a complementary tile or, perhaps, a colorful wallpaper. Thoughts as to how long the short back spash will stay out of style? (I'm old enough to remember bell bottoms - the first time they were in style.)...See MoreJulie Schmooley
