What do you see after white and gray kitchens fade?
Comments (45)I'm not sure but it will probably be mixed materials and cabinet colors mixed with wood. On a side note: the house I bought has a kitchen that I would never have picked, very vibrant cherry or lyptus wood (not sure) flat front doors/drawers and a granite that looks like toast crumbs. Well, I have never had a kitchen that was so easy to maintain. In my future move my new kitchen will have flat slab doors/drawers in nice natural walnut on the bottom , a mix of painted cabs and walnut shelves on the top and a countertop that is easy to maintain. Wood on the bottom will be easier with having dogs but I'll have a bit of color on the top. The best of both worlds. The house I buy will have to go with that idea....See MoreWhat do you see in there?
Comments (4)Well, for starters, I would move the bed to that other wall. It feels very wrong where it is. The wall next to the closet. I think an upholstered tall bed is called for. I wouldn't cover the pillows with the comforter, and I would choose a duvet or comforter with some color. I would add 2 Euro pillows in front of the sleeping pillow and 3 smaller square pillow in front of the eros that have some color to them. Mix your textures. An area rug would help as well. But that's just my opinion....See MoreWhat do you see to transform this room into beautiful?
Comments (13)Love the teal sofas! (I have emerald green ones myself and love them too.) I'd suggest a print rug incorporating teal and other colors in a design that speaks to you. Maybe one of these or these might speak to you?) Also, consider a couple of side tables and a nice coffee table, which shouldn't necessarily match but have a sense of coordination, perhaps in glass or acrylic or metal. I don't particularly care for the chest you have now but if its important, then perhaps it can work in a better place. Pull the two sofas closer to the coffee table. I would think about a comfy chair or two, perhaps in lovely prints that also include teal. I found this from Lee but there are lots of others, Don't forget lamps, both floor and table. I think you can go both modern and traditional as well in both or either gold or silver or maybe acrylic. This is one I have to balance out the traditional parts of my home and I love it. This one is also lovely, I think. As for art, don't look at match. Zalco is right; art should stand alone. Above all, and to the exclusion of everything else, you should love it, whether it's a fine reproduction of a famous painting to maps that fascinate to original art or photography. If you love it, it will work. Finally, here's a Houzz article for how to work with teal....See Morewhat do you see outside your living room window?
Comments (46)Neighbor's house across the street and if I look down, a pile of dying flowers and mud piled up. Have been trying to get my bulbs in, and move the clay soil into the backyard but it's slow going with work and my back not being that great these days...and the rain. Friday managed to dig up all the beds I had planted, put down chicken wire to protect them from squirrels and chipmunks. I'm hoping it's not too cold or wet tomorrow afternoon to finish planting the rest and move the mud into the backyard....See Moreaok27502
