Denise and Liz

dusty purple with slight tan undertone. this would work with existing wood dressers DG: not real big on purple at the moment

Q

another master bedroom color idea

Q

medium blue/green accent wall, master bedroom idea DG: Yep! I like this intensity level and the blue/green concept! This is the one!

Q

Bedroom wall color? LE: sure this is a nice color. it looks especially nice with the cream furniture. would you change your dressers? DG: good point. Probably not up for furniture mods at the moment.

Q

another master bedroom wall color idea DG: how is this one different from the wheat color? LE: this color has a slight pink undertone

Q

another master bedroom wall color idea DG: I like the light blue idea, but worried it's too close to my daughter's room color. Prefer something more "sophisticated"??

Q

master bedroom idea, sunny walls, blue quilt. probably not ship lap, because it could get expensive in a full room like this. is the quilt you have, something you could use on your bed? or wall art only? DG: my quilt fits a double or queen, but with the cream color base, I'm reluctant to use it on the bed routinely. I'm thinking about hanging it in the upstairs hallway since that wall is big enough.

Q

new wallpaper idea

Q

new wallpaper idea DG: I think this is the new favorite. Keeping it bright while bringing some contrast/interest/drama. LE: ok!

Q

new wallpaper idea

Q

I like this idea, but I'd recommend wallpaper that gets installed with paste. not peel and stick. I've not had a lot of luck with those types actually staying put. let's keep looking. this design reminds me of the quilt designs. let's see if we can find something similar.

Q

Example of quilt art...right type of idea, wrong colors

Q

My grandmother and her sisters made quilts, so to me that represents family and tradition and comfort. Something quilt-like as art somewhere in the house? LE: yes, I love this idea.

Q

upstairs bath idea, color oat. DG: love it. Does it matter that all the porcelain is white? LE: no, it'll just accent it. it should be fine.

Q

wallpaper idea 2, classic black and white, downstairs bath. DG: Yes to black and white (maybe warm white to mesh better with the wood cabinet). I'm thinking a larger pattern, like this. The longer I look at this one, the more I like it. :)

Q

master, option 3, wheat colored walls DG: this one is a close second. LE: which one is your first choice?

Q

master idea 2, accent rich blue/green, with cream walls DG: I like the concept, but struggling with how dark the color is. Can you do this with a medium tone instead?

Q

master, neutral and creams

Q

kitchen, light dove grey cabinets, white walls. wood accents

Q

another light grey cabinet color. walls would be white. DG: The more I think about it, with the number of cabinets in my kitchen, in order to get a bright room with those black countertops, I'm going to prefer painted cabinets.

Q

kitchen idea, butter cream walls and cabinets. would also work nicely with neutral woods. DG: I think I like buttercream for the kitchen to differentiate a little from the living room. But maybe the walls 1 shade lighter than the (eventual) cabinet color? LE: yes, that's a good idea

Q

neutral kitchen with buttercream accent cabinets, and would do walls in buttercream

Q

kitchen, refaced, mission style. white ceiling, wall colors could be same as living room. DG: yes to different cabinet doors, but I think that might be outside my budget/scope for now? To me, that's personal preference, and ROI might not pay off?

Q

accent wall, living room. ship lap, painted white. wall w/ stairs. DG: Like the concept. Same color as ceiling or other walls? Getting stuck on the details...thermostat, baseboards, transitions, etc. LE: I'd recommend the same color as the ceiling so it's an accent. you have good trim on the stairs, so I wouldn't change that, in fact it would look nice against the white. when they install shiplap, they can push out the electrical so it's still on top.

Q

living room color, option 2. DG: I think I like this one better than the blue gray for the living room. Reminds me of sea salt for some reason. Love the subtle, but noticeable, difference between the gray and white!

Q

DG: Love the idea of something interesting on that high wall in the stairwell; I'm not sure about reclaimed wood with the rest of the decor? White is great for some brightness. If the stair wall in the living room is shiplap, maybe repeat here, or do something that is more like art? LE: sure, you could carry over shiplap. art is possible, but can be pretty expensive for a large piece. but would depend on what it is.
