Help! Can’t decide which quartz colour.

I am looking for the best white’ish’ quartz for on top of my shallow built in in the dining room. The cabinets are painted BM Chantilly Lace. I have looked at Calacutta Gold but it doesn’t seem white enough. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. It’s a small dining room with only sun coming in in the evening.

I just can't decide which bathroom color
Comments (3)You should get more help if you post in the Home Decorating area. I am not very familiar with SW colors. For the ceiling you could compare their ceiling white with your trim color and choose between those. If you like Steely Gray but worried that it might be too dark, you could get it mixed at 50% or 75%. I would get samples and paint sample boards to try out the colors in the room. Also consider what color towels. You have a lot of dark but also a good amount of white in the room....See MorePlease help! I can't decide on exterior house colours.
Comments (2)Rachel, use the same roofing on your garage as the house. If you dont blend your new garage into what you have on the house, its not going to look like it belongs with your house on your property. Try to have siding, and roofing, and windows, all as close to the house as your can....See MoreMaster bedroom help .. Please help me select bed .. can’t decide !
Comments (51)I'm not a fan of any of those options...for various reasons. Mostly because the style/scale as well as the tone doesn't look like it would compliment the bed.....although without links hard to know. The Bernhardt nightstands in your pic from Haverty's are 40 W x30 H x21 D. That is why they don't look dwarfed by the bed. Do you have room to do something like the pic Penny posted? Basically a simple open rectangle with a sturdy leg? Another thing I'd consider is taking a look at kids' dressers/desks. Some are even similar in size and shape to the Bernhardt nightstands.... https://www.perigold.com/furniture/pdp/smiling-hill-4-drawer-dresser-sta6494.html?piid=17238112 Another approach would be multi-tiered side tables, not these exact ones obviously, but again something with enough heft and presence to play nicely with that bed....See MoreBought house and can't decide on colour scheme
Comments (1)Pics always help. I prefer to have some continuity throughout the public areas of the house. In my house, I used the same trim color in every room and for the living room dining room, and kitchen, I used the same basic 3-color palette but changed up which color was used for paint vs. furnishings vs. accents. That was my formula for keeping things harmonious, but my house is older and has separation between the rooms. A lot of people with more open floor plans opt to (or have to due to lack of natural transitions) keep the color the same throughout....See Morecalidesign

2 years agoA few years ago, I had my bathroom / laundry room renovated. I chose a white quartz remnant, called Thassos Pental Quartz, from a stone yard. I am very hapy with my choice. It cleans up with dish soap and water, no staining, no chipping. It looks as good today as the day it was installed! Best of luck in you counter choice.
