The console table looks to be the right scale for its wall; the other too pieces are too small for their placement, IMO.

The first is okay in that position, the others are too small. The small trestle table should probably serve as a chair-side table.

The first is great where it is.

The second could go against the stair wall.

The third is not really a console and I would either use it next to a chair, as pal suggests, or as a nightstand.

I agree. The first piece suits the grand scale of your home and has a significant presence in its spot, but the others are too small for their present locations.

I agree with everyone else. All the tables are lovely. Your home is beautiful with all that wonderful molding. Luscious.

That kidney shaped table is really cute....might it work on the side of the stair by the column with a nice vase of flowers on it???

The house looks great! Are some walls gray or is that the light?
Love all the tables but I think that the scale of furniture needs to be even bigger that strict measurements might dictate, because of the visual weight of moldings.

I agree the 1st one is just right and the second one is too small.

I think the last one could work if you move it to the left (left edge at least to the plug) and add a lamp.

AnnieDeighnaugh, the kidney shaped table will eventually be an end table for a couch once the couch is found. It has a matched friend that it needs to stay with that will serve as the other end table.

I feared the tables didn't look exactly right where they were but I guess it is confirmed. I'll have to move things around. I have a big armoire I might be abel to use along the back wall in the great room and then I can try to move that piece to the stairs and see if it fits better.... do you think the armoire is too bedroomy?

I could maybe move this cabinet to the great room too but I really wanted to leave this in the conservatory because I think it fits well there... Thoughts?

Oh and yes mtnrdredux, the walls are grey.

allison0704, I can move that one over, that's a good idea. I can do a lamp too as long as I can figure out a way to hide the cord

I would move the first console table (which feels too short for the wall) to the spot on the stairs where the third table is now. Don't center it, and put a lamp on the left end as the stairs angle up.

The other pieces are too small to sit alone, but what else might you have there - a chair on each side of the second piece would fill the space.

The third table belongs someplace as a side table by a chair, or an end table by a couch.

The armoire isn't too bedroom-y, but certainly is jammed in now, so finding a larger wall on which it can sit would be nice.

The other large cabinet deserves a bigger space, whether you move it to the left on that wall or find a new home for it. Right now it feels jammed against the wall, and that detracts from the cabinet. It needs some negative space around it to really shine!

Your wall color is lovely, and the panel moulding is wonderful.

The grey is a beautiful shade!

les917 the picture of the armoire wasn't taken in my house- that is a picture of it in the room in the estate sale where I bought it. Right now, is upstairs on a wall in a bedroom all alone. I guess it will need to migrate down. We're looking at a couch for the great room this weekend so if we get that, it will be easier to place console tables since the great room will have its sofa. I agree the conservatory cabinet needs to be shifted over. My fiance put it against the wall because he was worried it would block the light switch, but there's a heck of a lot of room there for it to move over w/o getting into the switch!

Thanks on the wall color comments. We tried approximately 1,000,000 gray paint colors and got help from a color consultant before we found this one (Sherwin Williams Tinsmith). It is quite possibly the only gray on earth that has no purple or pink undertones :)

I love the first table, it's perfect. I also love the third table but I would move it over to the left and add two wood chairs on each side. The cabinets are beautiful as well. I would place them according to scale. Larger cabinet goes in the largest room. Just gorgeous!!!

As big as your house/rooms are, I would never place a large piece (last picture) on a wall that small. (Wouldn't in a smaller house either.)

It's going to take awhile to fill your home, so don't be in a rush. That leads to mistakes, sometimes costly and non-returnable mistakes. ;D I think you need a really good game plan on what you have now, where it will most likely end up and what you want to purchase... then the order you want to purchase (or at least smaller groups). Measurements are important. Pictures, samples to take with you. iPad might come in handy for pictures (larger than iPhone). When my parents built a new home in the 80s, they moved from large house to large house, but things just didn't go. Having been in the business, they went to furniture market - three times - (Dallas and NC) to furnish with high quality casegoods and antiques. Rugs were purchased locally or brought over to show in home from ATL. It was like Christmas at least once a week for the next year.

We've been in our house almost 7 years now, and it only became finished (in my eye) this last year. Don't be in a rush to hang pictures either. I waited 6 months in some rooms/areas.

Allison we are definitely not in a rush to furnish. These are tables I got a steal on last year at this big estate sale from these people who collected kittinger and baker furniture. I tend to just buy pieces that I think are beautiful and well-made and figure I will find a home for them somewhere.

I can move the conservatory armoire to the great room maybe and see how it works in there.
