Color experts, please help! Stuck at my front door
Comments (7)Thanks! We decided to stain it black - five coats of semi-transparent. I can really see the wood grain still, which I think I like. If I want a change of pace, I can always stain it with an opaque stain. I'm happy with how it all turned out :-) Well, except for the doorbell. After it was installed, I realized the hammered black doorbell has a silver lining around the bell. Oops. Now I have to call the company and see if it comes with aged brass around the white bell!...See Moreplease help !! kitchen cabinet and floor color
Comments (2)What color cabinets do you like? What’s the style of your house? Those are good starting points. You have very little light so I would choose a light color. Although, presumably you’ll upgrade your lighting during the renovation so maybe a darker color might work if that’s the look you like....See MoreWhat colors are trending white or dark Please help STUCK IN A RUT?
Comments (33)As a home shopper, there are some things I am so tired of. Grey. Just do not. I love the white cabinets instead of wood, but never, never vessel sinks. Medium brown floors, I've had the darker shades and it doesn't work with dogs. I have other things to do with my life than Swiffering twice a day. I like the new ribbed wall-to-wall carpets with a high ceiling, I'm tired of hearing echoes. I despise wall tile in the kitchen that runs horizontally, that reads 10 years old to me. I'm not liking the oversized subway tile with the dark grout, too trendy. For the same reason I won't even tour houses with the grey bleached wood floors. I like the white marble tile look in bathrooms, I think it's timeless. I prefer a subtle granite to quartz. I like light and bright. I'm actually incredibly picky about the flooring. I like tile that looks like medium wood, or engineered wood that has some texture. But I'll take a high quality carpet over a bad engineered wood floor any day. And any time I see a free standing Tub like the one you used, I pass. Too hard to clean behind and dangerous to climb in and out of, and I know that from experience....See Morestuck! floor clashes with fireplace -help please!
Comments (80)You are the best judge of what paint colors work best with the flooring. Of course, we will do our best to help :) I recommend getting samples of colors you're considering, and paint them on sample boards that are at least 12" square. Sometimes you have to try a few of similar color to find the one that looks best in your lighting. Also, it's better to lay the color against a white background (like poster board or printer paper); otherwise, the color will be affected by the current wall or brick color. I missed the part about you having a mahogany bar. This is a great photo showing the color of the grout which you say is also the wall color. Maybe look at darker versions of the wall color for the fireplace wall. Here is a cut & paste of what I think you were envisioning. Very cool idea for slat doors....See MoreRelated Professionals
