Hi Tami,

This is a high contrast photo in the first place so it is intentionally dark caused by the natural lighting of the sun. It would look a tad lighter on canvas but not by much, the bottom right if the image is already flirting with over exposure and would get washed out beyond recognition if it was brighter. Both Aluminum and Canvas prints tend to lighten with age. Let us know if you have any other questions!

What a great job you've done,it's amazing what a change of colour can do,totally agree with the concept of updating what you've got especially as it looks like it's well made and probably cost a lot originally .

I would leave the fireplace as is, it's a feature of the room. If the rooms are small I would paint up to the picture rail and leave above in white. Something like elephants breath by farrow and ball could work for downstairs. Invest in some statement lighting as it make a room and also a stylish sofa. Look for secondhand furniture, mirrors etc on ebay. Depending on your style, you can always makeover any furniture yourself. If the kitchen cupboards are paintable then i would do this. If you don't like the kitchen as it is now, I would make a feature of the back window wall as your eye will be drawn to this. The diy shops have some good and cheap wallpapers in at the moment. I recently did a quick "tart up" of my basement utility room. I love tin tiles but couldn't find them in the right size in the uk so I bought turner tile anaglypta wallpaper (about £10 a roll) and then painted it metallic silver which looks great ( I think!). If you're keen on using copper this might be a cheap idea. I would just focus on getting the basics done now and then accessorise as budget permits.

Our next house has a similar ceiling height and recessed bay window so I've been giving this a lot of thought recently. I love a combination of textured walls in chalky F&B light blue with woodwork in white satinwood. 2 square sofas in light grey velvet facing each other, picture / mirrors framed in dark grey/black with a hint of soft gold metallic to pick up the sandy colour of the fieplace (as someone else has said) with off white mount board. Almost black wool rug under a glass coffee table. Cream, chenille full length dress curtains with low hold backs. A simple pencil pleat on dark wood or black nickel pole. Roller blinds in a dark, accent colour like berry red and pick this up in patterned cushions. Tall table lamps with slim, metallic base and round silk shades in light cream.

Hi Victoria. Other shots of the room would help to see the space and wardrobes. I would spend some time looking through pics of bedrooms on Houzz and set up an Ideabook of styles that you like. The bed is a traditonal design so I would keep it fairly Classic. Some colour and different textures will warm it up. What colours do you like and which way does the room face in terms of light? Perhaps wallpaper to add pattern or a throw and cushions. I'm not suggesting the style of room pictured above but it might be nice to have an upholstered chair in the corner by the window unless you need storage? For the bedside cabinet I would go for something on long legs to keep the feeling of space. If you want a rug then keep it in similar tones to the floor, again for space.
