Home Decorating Design Dilemma Living Room

lost direction and nothing matches

5 years ago

Help! Decorating is not my Forte and it truly shows with my living room. I have a living room/dining room combo and a massive piano in the middle of it. Got some accent chairs yesterday, and don't think it matches the wall (pale oak wall). My personal style is modern farmhouse/transitional, and I'm lost on how to tie it all in. Any ideas or recommendations? thank you so much.

You could get some lumbar pillows to tie chairs in with walls, etc.

And use some type of black detail in your table settings.

Colors are difficult on a monitor. I do see the chairs as a pale creamy yellowish against a more beige wall. Agree get some accent pillows and art. I find the table & chairs don't complement the floors. Maybe a rug under the table
