Carpet colour for grey walls
Comments (22)Joanne, I'm so happy I came across you're post, as I'm having the same dilemma. I have just bought my first house and have painted my living room in cornforth white. I have a similar layout to your living room, with the fireplace and shaker alcove doors. Problem is, I can't find a carpet that compliments the paint. I LOVE the carpet you have chosen, it goes so well. Do you mind me asking where it's from and what shade it is? Thanks, Sarah x...See MoreBathroom Window Treatment
Comments (6)Thank you for those suggestions. If I went down the wooden venetian blind option would you suggest I keep the wood colour or opt for a white/off white colour? Im just worried it might look too stark. I was in John Lewis today and looked at their waterproof roller blinds so I could opt for the window film on the bottom half of the window then the roller blind sitting recessed inside the window. On the outside I could have a roman blind? Many thanks for all the help!...See MorePlease help me pick a colour for my hall, stairs & landing
Comments (15)Well what a coincident! Visited a friend yesterday who is having her hallway, stairs and landing painted on Monday and wanted my advice (!). She has chosen a Karndean style herringbone floor for her hall and a soft check stair carpet in a warm caramel colour. Staircase is oak and glass. Not much natural light in the hall. We looked through loads of paint charts but she didn’t want the expense of F&B or Little G. Then we both felt Dulux Caramel Latte or Caramel Blush would look good. She later bought some matchpots and loves both shades, so she’s having the Latte on one wall and the Blush on the rest. They are lovely warm tones with very appropriate names!...See MoreHelp! new carpet doesn’t work!
Comments (13)If you can’t rent it and the market says you need to change it you either need to paint or replace the carpet. If the cost is the same I would replace the carpet for three reasons- firstly it is quicker and so you can get a tenant in faster. Secondly the carpet does seem to have polarised opinion so another choice might be more commercial. Lastly the carpet might have a second hand value. One further thought- UK homes painted white throughout look superb if they are softened with lots of soft furnishings and natural materials. I think you might be thinking your house will look like that painted white but I worry that the contrast with the dark carpet will make it look harsh especially in the cold winter light....See MoreA B
