help! need ideas for rug under couch
Comments (8)I agree with kulrn about not having a rug under the dining table. Or, if you want something there, maybe a faux zebra rug or something else not square. I wouldn’t use it anywhere — in my opinion the colors are too cool and don’t mix, or contrast, well in there. (Pretend your rug isn’t there, just the zebra): _________________________ _________________________ Here are kulrn’s first two rugs; I wasn’t able to do the third. I like these a lot. ____________________________ ____________________________ Some more suggestions to get an idea of what direction (style, color, etc) you want to go. I think with the rest of your decor and room elements, you need to have colors compatible with both warm and cool tones. Same rug turned other way: ____________________ ____________________ Actual close-up of rug above ... it doesn’t mock-up well at all. ____________________________ ____________________________ Adding some color ... ________________________ ________________________ I like this one, too, but it doesn't have a mock-up option:...See MoreHelp!

Comments (5)It's a fact ... you'll not be able to get rid of the mess until you create a permanent, hard walk where there is now mulch. The magnolia roots are going to make it harder, but it must be done if there is to be a cure. I agree with others that something like concrete (simplest and cheapest) or pavers/brick are suitable. A walk laid out to acknowledge the tree will look and work better than one that doesn't. The bench only makes sense if there is a way to get to it ... i.e., use it. But because of Magnolia roots, it would add a lot of difficulty extending the walk to the bench. Therefore, I'd recommend using the bench elsewhere and having only plantings at the front of the house. Consider using a groundcover like Asiatic Jasmine to cover the magnolia roots....See MoreHELP!!

Comments (2)leaning towards the white color end (not too white) of the spectrum with a chocolate or gray door. any suggestions...See MoreHelp! Need ideas on windows & exterior reno of 1980's farmhouse.
Comments (9)Yes, it's a ranch, but I get you want farmhouse style. Personally, I love that teal. If you aren't replacing siding, I would consider a combo of cedar tones and white trim. You could also trim the windows black, which is on trend now. I know the stylish chose would be to remove that deck, as it does cut the house up, but if it is useful, could you trim differently to make it work with house more? Not sure how far down the rabblt hole you want to go on an investment property. Thinking the cheaper fix is black or deep gray paint (complimentary to roof) and do windows to match, OR strip deck rails to natural and stain cedar. The teal, cedar, and black combo is a good one. You could do the entry cedar to match stairs with black door. If you are thinking of ditching the deck it wouldn't hurt to play with paint. Pics below... The big porch on the white house below takes the ranch to farmhouse. White with black windows is the expected farmhouse look, but I see it overdone in my coastal town. It was something new in 2018, but predict it will be dated in 10 years. Personally, I like a modern exterior, with the decking in scale to your house, or go classic. Hard to beat a true farmhouse look of white with green or red trim and a metal roof. . Red house is a cool look for a ranch if you are redoing total exterior. Would work with teal....See More- 20 days ago
