Art or No Art, that is the question?
Comments (23)Thanks for all the great ideas. I would like all the furniture pieces to stay in the room, plus no other spot in the home for them. I am going to move the dresser under the window and move the chest of drawers to the wall where the dresser currently is and see how that looks and feels. TV may have to go as it is rarely used anyway. Not having a mirror over the dresser will be a change for me, lol. neverbedone - thanks for the picture, it really takes care of the space below the window and looks nice and neat. Olychick - Could I used draperies that match the current color of my Roman shades? I do want to keep them as they let light into a drab north/east room. Mrs S. - You are right, moving the chest of drawers would definitely give us some extra space when walking into the room and in front of the bed. TV not used much and it may go out of the room. RITA - Not looking for actually suggestions for art, just sizes and a pleasing placement on the wall. If I move the furniture pieces as suggested above, I may be able to also hang a piece above the chest of drawers. Again, thanks for all your suggestions, they have opened my eyes to new possibilities with the room....See MoreHow to hang art above wainscot
Comments (10)<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><md>Sounds like a smaller wall is the way to go, thanks for the suggestion! Thankfully people with asthma know about dusting frequently, HEPA filters, hardwood floors that are cleaned regularly, horrible fake flowers that are shaken out regularly, vacuuming furniture, mattress covers and pillow covers, as well as taking medications as prescribed, not smoking, not being around smokers, and other ways to take good care of themselves! Though I hope people who don’t have asthma clean too!...See MoreHELP!!! Art work placement plus Entryway console
Comments (33)I have no help to add about the art but I do love the colorful rug @celery showed I the last post. Something dramatic with that gorgeous green in it will tie the room together. Your dining table is stunning! And the green chairs are a happy surprise ( most dining rooms have all chairs the same)....See MoreSizing of Art Work
Comments (50)That's a 5' square (25 sq ft of plates) and it looks too small! That wall is huge. I've lowered the plates and spread them out to about 8" apart.... 28.5 sqft. Oh, and added a roman shade to disguise the discrepancy of window heights....See MoreL.D. Johnson
