Comments (2)ooopps,......See MorePlease help me pick a floor for my laundry room
Comments (20)I like #3. It has the most depth and incorporates more colors and tones so to me it would be easiest to change wall color with that as a floor ( blue, green, grey, white, etc). I think with the #2 brown floor and black cabs and appliances you would not want to keep the blue wall color but go to something liked a greyed tan, which seems a bit muddy and dark for a laundry. The first choice does not seem to complement anything else in the room....See MoreHelp me pick (fix) a color for my laundry room?
Comments (8)Thanks for the confirmation that it's just too much. ;) And isn't my kitten adorable? He was a big helper, too - sat on the same step I was on while I was painting, until I locked him out so I could finish that area. I called the appliance delivery folks and was told they would be at my house at around 11:30 am. So, I ran over the HD and grabbed some primer and new paint...and JUST as they were mixing in the color, I got the call (at 10:35) that they'd be at my house in 15 minutes. Rushed home, and beat them by about three minutes (small town = no traffic). That's when we discovered that our slab for the W&D is a bit too short - the feet for both appliances rest right at the edge, and these are about 4 inches longer than our former pair. So, the color is the least of my concerns - now I have to make sure the appliances are balanced, and hope they don't wander... When the room is finished, I'll post pictures. Could be a few days. Oh - the color I chose - I really liked Key Lime on Behr's website (as someone above suggested), but I didn't like the paint chip at all. I opted for Carolina Parakeet, which is lighter than the current color, but still not a 'light' color. I think I can pull it off w/ white blinds, perhaps a white (or blue?) valance, and some black-framed pictures on the wall. And if not, I'm painting the room white again and getting colorful curtains. ;)...See MoreHelp me decorate my ugly living room!
Comments (25)Definitely like the love seat in front of the window. I would put an end table with a lamp on it between the sofa and love seat, put a sofa table behind the sofa that has its back to the entry, keep the TV above the fireplace but lower it. I like a symmetrical look and if you put the TV on either side of the fireplace it would throw that off. Decide what colors you want to accent with and use those colors in art work, drapes/panels and accessories. If you do use drapes, mount the rod higher and wider than the window. You have a great room it just needs some tweaking....See MoreDenita
