I still can't get my kitchen right :(
Comments (134)This is what I would start off doing ( all depends on costs, budget etc. though) 1st Pic: - Remove items on top of cabinets and leave them empty for easy cleaning etc.. - Change lighting for something stronger and put a chandelier. -Add brighter kitchen accessories. - Cover chairs with a cream covering to make the kitchen look lighter. 2nd Pic: - Change the dining hutch to something wide that will fit that area and come just below the wall border line. Add Lamps on either side ( or wall sconces) -Add a larger decorative mirror there. 3rd Pic: You can either put candles on the wall in front of table or a grand wall clock. 4th Pic: Window Treatment From Houzz pages: Samples for pic 1: Sample for pic 2: Sample for pic 3: ( wall clock) Sample for pic 4: ( windows)...See MoreCan't get this room right!
Comments (25)Art over the fireplace. I would put the TV in an armoire as you need a taller more massive piece in this large room. Armoires are often quite affordable these days, and can bring a sense of permanence, home and hearth to a room like yours. 3. A larger rug or you could move your furniture into a more intimate setting. If you do that, I would put a console on the wall opposite the TV/armoire with a coordinating piece of art over the console and a lamp. The room also needs at least 2 end tables for the sofas, possibly even 3 if space permits. Lamps, lamps, lamps. Warm up the setting with table lamps, floor lamps, etc. A minimum of 3 -4 lamps in a room this size. You will be surprised how much warmer the setting appears with lamplight. Overall, I love your room already! Love the clean lines of your sofas. Love the pattern in your rug (if not the size). Love your wall color! You are well on your way to a beautiful room!...See MoreI just can't get it right. Please help.
Comments (60)The room looks very nice but I see your issue. What jumped at me immediately is that the coffee table and loveseat seem to have gone adrift and are floating in the very center of the room. First I would move the coffee table closer to the longer sofa. Then I would EITHER put the smaller loveseat on the opposite side backing to the banister and little closer to the sofa OR banish it entirely and get a smaller scale chair. One further suggestion: Objects on walls ideally should be hung at a height where your eye hits the CENTER of the object....by bringing them lower you will create the illusion of a taller ceiling....See MoreThe living room I just can't seem to get right
Comments (27)Hanging your tv on the wall gives more floor space and also keeps it from potentially being knocked over, adding the same artwork on both sides of the couch ( and the chairs)with a throw and pillows that blend would change the look of the room also, add a bamboo style basket( the color of your blinds) to hold extra throws and pillows, the room needs more light, open floor lamps, if you add another couch, adding a medium sized table or ottaman, topped with a throw and an tray with decor....See Moreluckygal
