For the first time in my life I have a blank canvas and no idea what to do with it. As you may know we are re-painting and re-decorating much of the interior of our home. I've finished two rooms so far and been very happy with the results. I knew just what colors I wanted, what kind of look, etc:
Guest room
Office
However with the downstairs rooms I am faced with a unique challenge, dark brown woodwork. It's beautiful wood, and although I've wrestled with the idea I have decided not to paint it. However it presents a decorating challenge that I find myself having a hard time with. The dining room will be a very dark eggplant purple, but for the living room I wanted something that would bring more light to the room. I was thinking of leaving it white or maybe a warmer white and just doing bright artwork, furniture and other decor. But I want your opinion dear readers:
Hey there! I love the idea of keeping it light. I could see picking a really light gray in the same family as your office gray (which I love). Your firplace is fabulous you need some awesome art above that puppy that has some eggplant in it to tie them together?
ReplyDeleteI like green...I think a bright green and dark brown would look fabulous together...and then spice it up with some fun artwork...Just my two cents.
