Mantle placement help and paint color for light wood flooring.
Comments (6)Take the molding, the shelf that is trying to be a mantle & paint the wall to match your other walls. Select some linen like drapery panels that extend from the ceiling to the floor and consider mounting art above the fireplace. Typically when there is a fireplace surround like yours, there is no mantle....See MorePlease help! Carpet or wood flooring? What color paint?
Comments (6)thanks so much for the feedback, everyone! Patricia, I totally agree about the tv height but we bought a cool tv mount that will allow the tv to swing down over the mantel by 28" to lower the height for viewing. We tried configuring hte room as you suggested, but because of the massive French doors on the opposite wall that swing into the room, we can't really put the tv on the wall that you suggested. The room -- despite being fairly large (15'x20') - is actually really strange for layout and furniture placement and it just makes the most sense to mount the tv over the mantel. We lowered the height of the new mantel as much as we could to meet fire code and hopefully the new mount will lower the tv height to a reaosnable range. Also, the pic of the "before" that I attached was mostly to show the space of the room. I took that photo the day we closed on the house. Those ghastly Roman shades were gone in a flash! all of the seller 'swindow treatments were terrible! lol I'm going to further investigate the hardwood floors this weekend. If you have a suggestion of a grayed green paint color, I'd love to check it out!...See MoreWood experts--Unstained natural birch vs natural maple as far as color
Comments (9)All those cabinets JuneKnow posted look to me like they were originally stained. The color is close to a cherry look IMO. Were they natural colored originally? I know certain finishes do yellow throughout the years. An example, for floors anyway, is an oil based finish vs a water based finish. After sanding we refinished our 100 year old maple floors with oil-based finish knowing full well that the finish would cause them to yellow. In that situation our choice was based on longevity of the finish. I am just trying to get some guidance on what wood species to select if I want something that will remain a lighter color (this is a different home than the 100 year old one mentioned above)....See MoreHelp with cabinet paint color! BM Natural Cream or Nature’s Essentials
Comments (14)@paynerobin Can you tell me what trim color you used with Natures Essentials/Natural Cream? I just had kitchen cabinets in Natural Cream installed and now struggling with wall/trim color. Would like a white/soft white paint color for walls and trim. I was considering Cloud White, White Dove. I like Swiss Coffee but not enough contrast. I know I do not want Chantilly Lace on the walls,,any recommendations for a white that goes well with Natural Cream/Nature Essentials?...See MoreSel Bee
