Advice for a living room
Comments (4)There are several good natural tones that are more grey than beige. John lewis do some lovely stripey ones - thin stripes. Alternatively what are your floorboards like? Perhaps floorboards with a rug might be nice. Roger Oates do lovely carpets and rugs. Cox & Cox actually have some stunning rugs at the moment. Alternatively I like the sisal rug company for build your own shade of rug with bespoke sizing and edging. Enjoy! Z...See MoreLiving room and dining room advice
Comments (22)The Persian rug is lovely. We have several (sitting room, study, hall, bedroom ..... they're a bit addictive), with fabric using a couple of the colours in each for stuff like cushions, curtains etc. with neutral walls. I agree with minnie about the patterns. To get the right colour combinations, at a reasonable price, you could find a company that does a range with the colour or colours you're looking for and then look for remnants on ebay, to get them at bargain prices. That's worked well for us. Stuff like this:http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Schumacher-Curtain-Fabric-PASHA-PAISLEY-2m-POMEGRANATE-100-WOOL-/322509242456?hash=item4b170c8058:g:DwsAAOSw42JZAwWm And if you're looking for another rug to complement the one you've got, www.carpetu2.co.uk has a massive range on-line, at better prices than I've been able to find here. They're actually in Greece, but don't charge for shipping, which is very fast....See MoreOak Floors and grey walls - Living room
Comments (3)Do you have photos of everything youre planning? Oak will add warmth to the room. It also depends on what you add for accessories as different textures/materials, layered lighting, plants, books etc will give a cosy feel. Walnut may make the room feel smaller if there's a lot of contrast with the walls and skirting boards. I've had/have oak and walnut floors and tbh haven't seen a difference in denting? Grey paint may also not work for all the rooms assuming they're a different orientation Etc? Maybe you can add more details and photos...See MoreLiving room curtain advice
Comments (4)Thanks people. Think I am going for the blue and white as I don't want to detract from the black & white art work I have and I do think the window should be classed as another wall. Doubt photos would help as room still only half completed. Been a nightmare with family illness and Covid around. Usually I'm on a roll and very good at this. Need to trust my instincts. Thanks for the comments though...See MoreManny
