What color do you have in artwork, rugs or furniture to work around?

inspiration

Hello, the artwork/accents/misc. jazz around the room is all over the map. :) Honestly, I think that once the room is painted, I will pull items from other places in order to bring it all together. I lack the ability & talent to make things look the way I'd like for them to be---but arranging "new" items on new walls will be a dream come true. :) *I have to mention that I love ALL color; but wouldn't want to use pink or mauve unless it was the only paint color left in the world. ;) Thank you.

vpryor, thank you for the photo. The wall color does remind me of the current color---however, your picture reminds me that I need to figure out lighting for the room. I like how nice and bright the living area is in the pic; for so long my living room has been too dark, especially at night (I've referred to it as a cave). I have 2 basic lamps at the moment. Thank you. :)

londonvon, Inspiration is an understatement! Wow. :) I have a question. If I were to choose the Faded Gray by Dunn-Edwards for the walls, how would I choose the right color for the ceiling and the right color for the room "accents", like trim, door frame, etc… We don't have a Dunn-Edwards location in our area…let alone the entire state. :( The good news is that I can take a copy of their color to Home Depot to try and match it as closely as possible. Thank you for the inspiration. :)

if u choose the faded gray choose a brilliant white to enhance it. a great way to wow a room is make everything thing gray; sofa, area rug, drapes, if there r books cover them in gray. now accent the room w ure accent color that u enjoy w an accent chair, lamps, pillows, art work.

since gray is a great neutral, purple or apple green would go great w it.

this is my bedroom. it's not in the pic but I accented w aqua n turquoise n chromes.

hi londonvon, Thank you for the great color tips and photos. Funny that you mentioned purple & apple green; I tend to use them both in my artwork more than I'd ever care to admit. :) The photos are so bright, clean and relaxing. Your bedroom photo reminds me of a luxurious spa (never been to one, but I've seen pictures! lol). It has to be invigorating to wake up in such a calm environment. :) Thank you, londonvon.

this is a project I did for my store front apartment. it was a long room so I decided to create a 2nd bedroom at the back using closet systems.

looking forward to seeing the final product. enjoy the journey.
