Great room help

5 years ago

Looking for a new coffee and end table. It needs to be on the larger side. Any ideas? I tried to take pics of all sides of the room. As you can see I have a lot of brown wood going on ( mostly cherry color and some black). Also we plan on painting this room a lighter color soon.

    Thanks a Julie! i didn’t keep the round, sent back to wayfair. This rectangular one is nice and long 54 inches and the depth Is only 24 inches which gives some more walking room.

    So as for the rug... I’m torn! The Reva rug is beautiful but thinking maybe the colors in the blue malika rug work better with my room and sofa fabric??

    I will be honest that rug looks old ...I don’t like all the gold in it.....the other one is bright and refreshing..a new look for your home but still classic...but obviously you have to love it..you might even pull in the slate blue into the drapes..so pretty.

  • 4 years ago

    Ok leaning toward the Reva... the more I stare the more I like it. And it goes fine with sofa fabric right?

    Thanks Julie! Didn’t see your comment until after I wrote mine. You’re right the blue rug is very traditional...

    So I had actually ordered the curtains shown above the other day. What does everyone think? Also this panel is part of pottery barn custom line so I can get whatever length I want to the nearest inch. I’ll add in the blue with pillows and accessories...

    Looks good from here but colors on screen are so darn inaccurate.

  • 4 years ago

    Thanks Flo! It’s looking good to me in person. Colors aren’t an exact match but they all seem to go together nicely. And it’s nice to see something other than those old panels up there since they were giving the room a yellowish tint.

    Before you decide for sure on drapes..do they have anything in a lighter color? The dark oatmeal drapes are nice and does blend well but I would bring home something lighter just to test out and compare before deciding...you have time while you wait for your sofa.

  • 4 years ago

    Thanks Julie. Yes I do have time. They do have a lighter color. 2 different ivories.


    classic

    Regular


    Thinking regular might be too yellow right? No samples available but maybe I’ll order a classic ivory panel. And I have this sample from half priced drapes which could maybe work as well... light oatmeal color.... looks similar to the classic PB color..

    Still waiting on the rug, curtains and sofa... but new coffee table finally put together! Any end table ideas?? Getting rid of these lamps and bought this one below (coming in next month)...







    i could match the coffee table...


    Or something like this?...,

    What is the height of your new lamp? Looks very short?.....I think the matching end table is nice..the other one looks a bit too industrial..or maybe a round pedestal just in a nice wood stain or painted...like the idea of adding something painted into the mix keeping it light...

  • 4 years ago

    Hi Julie! The lamp is 21 inches high. I know that’s more of a bed table height but I liked the look of it. Is it too short for that space?? I wanted ome type of ceramic chunky lamp.


    And ok thank you for the end table suggestions. I bought the end table that matches but wondering if it would be too much glass? I like the idea of pedestal as well. Here are the other tables in the room.

    Oh 21” is way too short.....I have several pottery chunky lamps saved..what is your budget? I can post a few...I like adding garden stools in any room....I do like the dark round one in the second photo next to your lighter chair too... maybe if you keep your two round side tables you posted it may be best to do a square next to the sofa..

  • 4 years ago

    Ok. I can cancel it since it’s on back order anyway. Thank you! Would like to keep it around $200. Ok, good idea about the square shape. Will keep looking!

  • 4 years ago

    How about square matching end table with a black lamp? Just a reminder my new sofa will be much lighter






  • 4 years ago

    Or this cool cone shaped one...





  • PRO

    Yes on the square matching table if keeping the two round side tables next to the chairs...love the lamp but because you are doing black tables..maybe stay with a lighter base lamp...

  • 4 years ago

    ...

  • 4 years ago

    Thanks Julie! what do you think of this one? 29 inches.




  • 4 years ago

    Or maybe this one adds a little more interest...



  • 4 years ago

    So got the new rug and it’s beautiful but a little lighter than I thought it would be... granted my current wheat colored sofa and chair are not helping things... my new sofa and chair will be a linen color Like the tufted chair I have in the pic... even so afraid it doesn’t go with the red/orange tone of my fireplace... thoughts??
