Comments (18)TV looks too high to me also. Corner iron piece detracts from nice fireplace. What’s the outlet high up on right for? What is the console looking piece behind black chair? I like your furniture pieces & rug together & looks like a really nice room. Thought of painting that fireplace makes me cringe! I think it’s pretty & adds nice texture to room. I’m not a member of the “let’s paint all the stone group”. I can’t offer any suggestions about your shelves or coffee table choice without seeing more of room from different angles. I do agree that walls either side of TV could use some interest but I keep coming back to TV. Too big for space & too high. My vote is to move it but can’t say where wo seeing more of room. Doing that might require some rearranging of seating too. I just think the fireplace would look so pretty with the TV moved....See Moremantle decor with shelves advice on how to pick what goes on them?
Comments (2)Hey Laura... here's one idea from houzz.com: "Pick a color palette. I think keeping the color palette simple is key to a pleasing composition." With fireplace's bronze/ gold, maybe you have an item with gold rim... and maybe you can show other items you consider in cobalt / bright blue. But really I'd like to know what accent colors the rest of the room has. :) https://www.houzz.com/magazine/handmade-home-how-to-style-your-bookcase-stsetivw-vs~1338801...See MoreJilly
