Flooring Design Dilemma Home Decorating

carpet color help please!

4 years ago

Please don’t tell me no carpet. I am putting carpet only in the upstairs bedrooms and hallway, the rest of house is hardwood. I like the softness and noise reduction. The entire house is painted gossamer veil with chantily lace trim and I am struggling with carpet color. Transitional style home in southern CA. Greige wood floors downstairs. Any specific carpet brands/colors would be much appreciated. Thanks!

I have ivory in my bedrooms. It pretty much goes with everything.

Figure out what your budget is per square foot. Go to any flooring store and bring home their sample boards of carpet that is within your budget (make sure you factor installation and padding into the cost). All brands will have wide range of neutrals. One of them will work. I don't recommend ivory unless you are all in the habit of removing your shoes when you enter your house so are never upstairs with shoes on.

“One of them will work.”

Definitely. It should be fairly easy. Gossamer Veil looks like a nice shade!
