Can you help me design my art wall space. Much help needed! TIA

4 years ago

I have laid out all the pieces I would be comfortable displaying in this area. For sure not all are needed. I have a white 35" round tulip table coming for 2 chairs in front of the window and heating space. Any rendering ideas?

This is the table coming (not the chairs :() Above


Below lots of options...


Tulip table here




Some are made from my adult children but thought it would be fun to display. Love any help.

    Think mirrors should be painted white?

  • 4 years ago

    vases back with a different plant on ledge. They are not tall enough probably :(


  • 4 years ago

    Hey, I think the mirrors look fine. Live with them for a while. I think the ledge looks good with the soft plant. One more large vase maybe. Marge is MIA.

    Marge is upstairs for now in my bedroom:)

    Hey l.

    It's a walkway by the tv? imo it's a 'no' where they are.

    Deb, they are under the ledge. But I’m good either way, with or without.

    I'll joke half seriously, that I see them on the floor at all, and think I might knock them over...

    I think the room looks great!

    If you changed the grey paint in the mirrors if ether just scuff the wood up a little in places to give it a more natural look, or dry brush an ivory/white over the gray and maybe wipe some off until you like the look. But also fine as-is 🤷🏻‍♀️

    I’m indifferent to the vases under the ledge. I don’t think they look bad but they may be a pain to vacuum around. I’d be too lazy to pick them up and end up pushing too hard and knocking one over to break. But maybe you aren’t like me 😂

    Hi all home with my daughter she had nasal polyp surgery on Weds and laying low. Needs mom for sure!! Found a lamp at the lighting store when I was picking up a pendant bulb.


  • 4 years ago

    Miss chatting in the eve! Hope you are all well !!!!

  • 4 years ago

    Looks like you may be changing up the rug?  Nice lamp, seems like its a better proportion.. take care of you and your daughter.

  • 4 years ago

    I like the new lamp, works well there next to the Tv.

    Hey, sorry daughter had to have surgery but if it’s a good fix, then perfect. I like the lamp as well. Good size. Take care, okay.

    HI all! I had a nice compliment from a neighbor. She asked if I was living here yet? It looked staged!


    I'm good with that!! Need something above my desk. Color? Not a clock though --found a spot upstairs that is perfect for the one!

    Keeping the rug for now but not at all done with pillows and throws. Buy a few ...return a few... You all made this so comfy for me thank you! Neutral to my liking but need a piece above the desk to catch my eye. I love the boulder pic so much...needs to compliment it and WOW .

  • 4 years ago



    The other view :)

  • 4 years ago

    It really does look so lovely and comfy. Not at all stuffy. P.S. I like your rug 😉😎.

    How’s your daughter doing?

    We can see what we can come up with over your desk.

    l. - the view to outdoor greenery begins with your indoor greenery ... the arc lamp is the 'deal' how it 'shows'... I really like it all. Still like your organic wood/mirror piece... not 'pieces' but one piece. ;)

    Morning. Here’s a thought to take you out of your comfort zone. I’ve often thought a piece of art that mimics your view at the other end of the room was a cool idea. I know, I know, it’s not edgy like boulder art. But as your sitting at your desk working, you can be dreaming about getting on that little red boat and sailing away to some dreamy place. Okay, I’m done 😂😉😘. Here are some of my favorites. Monet. Simple unexpected floating frame.

    lmuhrich thanked Seajay Sparkles
  • 4 years ago

    I love those. Especially the top right it is definitely in my comfort zone.

  • 4 years ago

    I am rethinking a clock if colorful and fun... I didn't like the one I hung upstairs ...returned already :)

  • 4 years ago

    I just think a picture on that wall with the boulder art, the mirrors, and the baskets all aligned may not be the "WOW" I want--Lots of space between everything so does not feel scrunched for sure. May look that way in pics tho

  • 4 years ago

    No @Seajsay

    ...or something like this?


  • 4 years ago

    It's all looking fab.  As for something by the computer, instead of something flat against the wall, how about something that hangs down from the ceiling like a macrame plant hanger with plant.  I would hang it to the right of the computer so its not directly over the computer.

    lmuhrich thanked Theresa Janssen
  • 4 years ago

    Or...  a mobile of some kind....

    Are those the dreaded birds on that clock. 😂🤣😉

    I’m not sure about a clock unless it’s a quality version.

    lmuhrich thanked Seajay Sparkles
  • 4 years ago

    Don’t know if this would work….but here goes…..what if you repositioned your desk so that you would face looking out the window while at the computer? This would break up the linear line-up of that long wall. Is the desk finished on all sides ? Can you conceal cords ?

    Hey there. I saw this lamp and had to share. Not as cool as your arc lamp but pretty darn cool just the same.

    I have missed my friends, Yes that lamp is awesome but I still love mine. Not very bright but it works in the space. Restarted a thread from a few years back for a cabin my sister and I co-own. VERY TIGHT BUDGET :( Love all your ideas totally different space in Oregon Coast

  • 4 years ago

    Where is that lamp from? Love the plant wall but already looks like a plant nursery in here. Keeping the area rug. It works as it is bright. Would still like to find something I love above desk but no rush. On a budget here for sure so not buying much right now! Too expensive to live in Seattle :(

  • 4 years ago

    I miss you too. I hear you about $$ in Seattle. That’s why I left DC and retired on Hilton Head SC.

    I’ll go look at your other thread.

    I always have an eye out for something over the desk but haven’t seen anything unique or worthy 😉.

    Good lord @Seajay Sparkles are you all safe from Hurricane Ian

  • 3 years ago

    Hey there. Yes we dodged a bullet. It was headed to us as it left Florida and took a left turn. Then a cold front pushed it a little north of us into north of Charleston. It was a horrible storm and the pictures out of Florida are heartbreaking.

    How are you doing?

  • 3 years ago

    Hi-

    dsimber is asking about your TV wall shelf if you should happen to see this.

    Thanks, Kcooz. Update here. I have received the information I need from Flo.

  • 3 years ago

    Hey Imuhrich, thought you'd like to know that Seajay had a stroke a few days ago. She seems to be doing alright but is still in the hospital.

  • 3 years ago

Small budget. Need windows and flooring first before we get the electrical, bathroom, etc. improvements done. Can you please follow my rustic cabin floooring help needed.
