Decorating Dilema

[jesscruz]

kelly here's an area that i found that is using your colors the way i explained isn't it pretty..

[ReconsMomma]

that is really pretty


If you look at the colors in my couch (which I hate but wont get a new one till the kids get a little older) it has a bunch of colors in it.

Here is a good pic of the colors in my couch.

here's another picture with the deep caramel color. but i think you can go a shade or two lighter.

Here is a link to the cabinet that I redid, I think with the green on the archways it will really pull all the color together.

you know i had the same dilema with my sofas so what i did is i went to the walmart and bought some slip covers and i looove them because i can wsh them and they look like new again!

[jesscruz]

very nice cabinet..and i notice you have hardwood floors too that will just look great with the colors..

[ReconsMomma]

I love my hardwoods. I only have one room with carpet and that is a spare bedroom which is now the computer room and Preslees room.

I think I might go get some slip covers once my room is done....

Thanks for the help with painting. I am going to do the ET center wall and I really think I am going to go with that meduim carmel color like you said. The more I look at it the more I like it.

glad that i can help. i can;t wait to see the finished product make sure you post pics

[ReconsMomma]

Oh I definately will. I have to take some pics of my kitchen too. I layed all the tile in there myself with a little help from a boyfriend at the times mom. I researched doing tile on the internet and then went from there. I love it too and Im damn proud of myself.


I enjoy doing all the stuff myself. Makes me feel like I have really accomplished something.

I love vibrant colors. As much as I am into web designing, I am into interior designing.
I am currently helping my mom remodel her salon. I am using shades of khaki and dark red/maroon. I love how that looks. I am going to paint the walls the khaki color and in the back of the store, paint that one wall dark red while her couch is also a dark maroon/red.

I love colors. Especially greens, too. Tans, greens.. I'm there!

My opinion is to paint the ET wall. That was what I did with my place in Dallas. It looks nice and gives the room a more centralized feeling to it.

I attached 3 pictures that I completely love, starting with the green one the best!

[ReconsMomma]

Great pix. Love the color of that green. The burgundy in the center pic is almost an exact match to the color that I am going to use.

Yor not going to like this, but I think your mom is right. Only because its your focal point wall. But I do like the idea of the contrasting doorways. Maybe you could paint both walls and then do the doorways.??!! I don't think it will be too dark, and anyway dark doesn't mean it will look small. I have a average size bedroom (12 X 17) and I have some very large furniture. I painted my walls a light chocolate. All my accents are off white and I get a lot on complaints.
I'm sure what ever you decide to do, It will look great and if for some reason it doesn't, Well its only paint.. I painted my kitchen purple once, I lived with it for about three days, and then I painted it a celery green, I love it!!
Good luck
