    Just got home from work. WOW!!! The new layout looks Ah-mazing! I would put the other white, shag pillows on the other chair. You already have great suggestions for purple pillows and a rug.

    The chest isn't working in between the two chairs by the window. Move it back to where it was originally.

    Ooops sorry the sofa is there now. I'd remove or locate to a wall. Maybe by the floor mirror?

    I like the idea of more grey than purple rug with more texture than pattern.

    I like the 3rd rug. The one that's not so purple. Just has a hint of purple.

    Third rug is beautiful!!
  • 10 years ago
    Can you bring home the one you really like, try it out, and return it if necessary?
  • 10 years ago
    Hi Terry yes, the thing is I'm not crazy about any. The third one is Pritty but the texture is kind of rustic not as formal as I would like.

    Love those pillows. I think they all look good together...I don't like pillows to match too much. Do you like this rug?

  • 10 years ago
    Thanks, the first One is too purple. I just want a hint of purple in the rug. The second One is nice

    Is there a more muted one you found? I like some of the above ones better. Did they not make the cut?

  • 10 years ago
    Even with a modern look, some dark wood elements (wood coffee table?) would really warm up the space. Some pillows and/or area rug using the red from the pic behind the chairs for a cohesive look and splash of color would look great.

    I dont really like the other ones too much. Too much purple, or the Texture kind of rustic. My living room is formal. This ones look luxurius i think.
  • 10 years ago
    Terry what do you mean with muted?
  • 10 years ago

    Becky, the new arrangement is nice except for the coffee table serving no purpose so far from the sofas. If you removed the chest between the black chairs (as S Mistry suggested) and place the chairs closer together (with a small table between them), you could pull the sofas in closer to the coffee table so they are each about 18" away from it. So, then the sofas would float in the room rather than be pushed against the walls. Could the chest be moved to the wall where the white wing chair and big mirror are? Do you have another home for the wing chair and mirror?

    I like your sugestion but i dont have another place for that chair and mirror. Thanks
  • 10 years ago

    Do you have another place for the chest?

    The chest is too tall and blocking Windows. It serves no functional purpose and the scale is off. Just remove it.

    Becky are you thinking a different color rug? I think that's a great idea. I wasn't a fan of all the purple!

  • 10 years ago
    Absolutely

    I really like how the chest looks

    Can it go in front of the mirror?

    Instead of chest can I put a side table with?
  • 10 years ago
    There is no space there

    Yes a small round side table.

  • 10 years ago

    I think the chest is very pretty but agree is doesn't make any sense between the two chairs. It's much too tall to serve as a side table between them. I think it would be better placed in an entrance, hall, or on a wall on its own. But, it sounds like you like it where it is.

    I don't like that Moroccan style too much. What do you think of this rugs? Second picture just to give you an idea the style I like.

    Very pretty. What do you think?
  • 10 years ago
    I like it but I'm not 100% sure
  • 10 years ago

    It's a pretty rug, but I'm not sure the color is doing much for your sofa color or your art colors.

    I like the style. But if you can find similar in a few shades lighter. Once you get your purple pillows, and pull sofa in closer, this one might work very well. Not everything needs to pop. Let your artwork shine.

    I like the rug. Remove your current beige and blue pillows and look at it again. You'll see that it goes well.

    The only thing though, I think the size is a bit off. Seems like it should be a bit wider and a bit shorter (more squarish than rectangular). That could also be because of the picture angle.

    Hello this rug dilemma is driving me crazy, so far I like this 2 rugs Which one will look better? Thank you
  • 10 years ago
    And this 2
  • 10 years ago
    I like your very last rug you posted. White with grey.
  • 10 years ago
    Here are the two I like. Keep in mind the green/purple will probably be darker when on the floor.
