If you are still going with wall art then I'd make them a different size. Maybe something like the size of the 3 on this wall.

Thanks shirlpp! I like that idea.. prefer 4 approximately 20” squares. Thanks again!

These are beautiful from Ballards. You can pick 4 you like best. They would bring texture and dimension to your room

Flo- those are beautiful, but I had serious sticker shock. What if I did four of these- each with a different stone? (Amazon has 5 options). I may need to paint the frames, but that’s fine.

Just realized that 4 would not be enough. They are each 8x10. So 8 would be ideal. Would that look too busy?

8 would be too busy but those are nice. Has concept at good pricing. Sorry for the sticker shock. Just trying to give you concept. Maybe 5 would work. Odd number for over love seat would work well in straight line.

Here are 15 x 15 3 of these might work.

I think three would be too long over the loveseat? The loveseat is 58” long, so I think The most I can do is 40”. But I can do 4 of those. But there are only three colors. Does that matter?

And thanks flo for finding those. I really like them

I think you should move the sofas if you're going to do that. Then decide how far apart you will place the artwork....then, purchase the artwork.

When you switch the couches can you flip the carpet...so the side that shows is the side that is currently under the big couch ?

Kris, are you saying to show the more open side of the carpet? I can definitely try that.
I am just wondering.. if I switch the couches, the coffee table will need to be rotated too. Will it look weird to walk in the “side” of the room?

Yes, I think the Rug is especially pretty on that side and yes I would rotate the table.

Alright. I will try to enlist my husband to help me move the furniture. I know the painting will look better on the bigger wall, just don’t know if I will like everything sideways.

I understand what you are saying... but the door isn’t directly lined up to the side of the table is it? If I recall there is an entry area? So it’s not the very first thing you see.

I always have to try things to know for sure- why I’m so amazed by the designers that can just see immediately how it should be.

Another art option. I really like it but is it too similar to the big painting? It’s the right size.

I downloaded some images from Etsy and frames them. The downloads were very cheap and framing can be bought to the size you want to use in the space. Here are mine.

Your “focal point” wall is where your sofa is now. Your secondary wall is the wall on right as you look at your art. Because of your room set up, this is your best layout imo. You need a complimentary something on right side wall. Plus good artificial tall compact green plant. And lamp.

I agree flo. I really don’t like the idea of walking into the room sideways.

But do you like the other art I posted? I think I prefer that one. And Molly, that’s a great idea. But I really think I like this one.

Check out some textured, neutral wall hangings. That would bring warmth and much needed texture to your room. Here are a few.

Thanks flo. I don’t love those. Do the geodes give more texture and warmth?

No the geodes are pretty and i. Shadow type box frames bring interest so that’s good. A cozy big yarn knit throw could warm up things. Just neutral.

Here is one. Many out there.

Your space REALLY needs a bit of color. For the 4 that you like - you can put 2 of them on the wall where the office door is located.

What about some nature inspired art? https://www.etsy.com/listing/668705123/rose-gold-blush-pink-ginko-leaves?ref=shop_home_active_29&frs=1&sca=1

Thanks everyone!
Shirlpp- I agree that the room would benefit from color. I am just struggling with how to do that so that it looks planned. I thought the four paintings would add more color than the geodes, but flo told me otherwise.
Molly- I do like floral prints. A lot. Do those add more color than the four I picked?
Thanks again!!

And flo, you’re not going to like this.. but, a throw will drive me nuts. I probably will not be able to go that route as I will be fixing it every second. Unless I choose throw over sanity 🙈

Do you mean the geodes?

Molly.. I’m not sure I understand your question. I like the geodes and the art of four prints I posted. Preferred the prints as there were only three different stones in the geode prints flo posted and I wanted to do four

Ah, I wasn’t sure what you were referring to. 😂. Personally I find the 4 prints kind of blah and don’t add much to the room. I agree with Shirley that you need some color and Flo that you need texture. Here is my chair by itself and with a pillow to add color and my couch with a throw and pillow to add texture. I’m considering adding this lamp for more texture.

Whose Shirley - Molly - do you mean shirlpp?

Yes, darned autocorrect!

I took a look at the art you liked. I like it after seeing it up close.

Molly, I love your room. I love pillows and throws in other people’s room. And one day, when my kids are big (just not too soon!!!), I will probably be able to have a pillow remain where I place it. Until then... 😂

And map... I agree 😜

Thanks! 🙂

Here is my new art, I just love it.

Here is arc lamp I just ran across for your living room from WestElm. It has acrylic globe

Thanks flo! I’m not loving the acrylic shade.. I’m sorry! I really like this one. What do you think?

Also, I really think painting the frame of the art will make a big difference. Does anyone agree? If so, what color? The art in the DR is framed in gold, but I think this room could really use a different color?

I seen on another thread that u have children; if young the table they would crack their head.

Hmm.. happyleg, I don’t think that comment was for me. But that doesn’t sound good!

Here are some very rough attempts using gold, brown and black so you can kind of get an idea.

Thanks molly! Can I bother you to do a green and a pink? Thanks again!

Here you go. I wasn’t sure of the pink you wanted so I chose a pinky orange color. Let me know if you want a true pink. I’m also throwing in a green/gray.

Arc lamp is silver? Coffee table legs gold? What is height of that one. I wouldn’t paint a colored frame on your painting at all.

Thanks flo. lamp is gold.

I wouldn't paint the frame

bncaew...
You can purchase a canvas floater frame for your art. Framing it may give you the punch you're looking for. This is a website I found so you could see what I'm talking about. I agree with @happyleg don't paint it.
