Choosing the right colours for to decorate my house
Dear friends from Houzz, I LOVE ur website, I read all ur newsletters and I can spend hours searching for ideas with u guys... My partner and I are renovating our home and I am in charge or the decoration. I have a dilemma, I had already chosen the colours for y house white and blue with some glass and silver accent decors until I saw this table. The funny thing is I don't like black! But I like the design... I am a white girl but I saw this table and I totally fell in love with it that has put my entire decoration on hold... Is there any possibility to have this table for my dinning room if my living room is white and blue? I don't want to have a white and black living room too but the dinning is right next to the living room and in my understanding to bring the whole decoration together I need to have black in my living room. The main concern for me what type of accent rug I will buy for my living room? I want it white and blue but I will have a black table close by and it's gonna look too different and probably won't match? My original plan was to have white sofas with blue and white rug and accent chair. And for the living room ghost chairs and glass table but since I saw this black table I am stuck! The form of the table is very unique and I cannot find anything in white :( pls help... I thought about zebra accent chair and silver greyish accent rug but my partner doesn't like the idea

Comments (4)HI --- Why is the yard paved , it looks so barren ? The color "Willow " by Benjamin Moore Paints would work with what you have . I am not a fan of the roof color ... if you change that , you could go with a textured dark brown or go to a textured charcoal or a grey . Maybe make the front door stand out more with a color ... maybe a rich dark green or a Navy like "Polo". But this house would look wonderful with a veranda /deck/porch from the front door to the opening just in front of the last window on the right ,in the color like the windows and trim . For the landscaping .. if your keeping the paving I would say get some big planter boxes . I would remove some of that paving because the house could use some trees etc. If so then I would plant a cut leaf weeping birch just left front of the window but mature tree spread away -about 20 feet. Also see if that down spout can be moved to come off the side ,instead of on the front . And add some exterior lighting to accent the house ....See MoreChoosing bedroom colours - help me, please!
Comments (10)Now for Mr 16 months... I really can't decide. His room is going to be on the cold side of the house, with not so much sun so I want it to get that cozy sort of feeling when you come into it. I was thinking yellow or orange curtains? But then I don't know what colour to do the walls. These are some fabrics I like:...See MoreBest bathroom layout for my first house? Help please!
Comments (14)We have a 900x900 shower and it's plenty big enough. Neither of your proposed layouts looks that great, to be perfectly honest, sorry! In the first layout, you could improve it quite a lot by swapping the toilet and vanity (centre the toilet under the window on the bottom right of the picture if possible), and having the shower door on the other wall (beside the door). Then, you could have a towel rail on the wall beside the door (i.e. behind the door when it's open), which would be accessible from the shower but hidden when the door was open. An 800x1200 shower might be a good size for your space. You'd have to choose a toilet that doesn't protrude too far, plus a narrow vanity. With that layout, you could have a long but narrow wall-hung vanity, with a big mirror covering the wall between the windows, which would make the room feel bigger and would give a good amount of storage.

What colour/s should we paint our house!
Comments (10)Without knowing any more info , I'd say its near impossible for anyone but you to know what colour/s to choose -- do you want the house to blend in but have its own style , or do you want it to stand out ? What colours are your main furniture items and even kitchen etc ? For xxample , if keeping the beige walls , how about doing the eves and gutters and garage door in a tangy ( bright , but not glaring ) orange -- this would work with the existing colours and not require a complete repaint . BUT if your kitchen was mainly various shades of , say , green and teal , and your lounge suite and duvet covers were mainly blue hues , that may 'feel' funny , clashing with the exterior ? Of course , blue and beige exterior may not work with the brown aluminium , as youve recognised . Another option ( a bit hard to tell from the pictures ) is that a light grey ( repaint the beige ) with mid-charcoal base boards may work with the brown aluminium , then a bright colour on the gutters and front and rear doors to suit -- anything from sea blue to bright yellow , orange , red , even white or off-white would probably work ....See MoreRocio Warby
10 years agoI also love flowery patterns and damask. I don't like brown or grey... I am tired of those colors. I prefer white cause the house is not that big and sunny. It's not too bad though ... At the moment is looking like this!
