usually i don't hang around here but the photo board doesn't cover this and this is driving me to crazy so hope i can pick some brains here
...redoing living room, topaz venetian plaster walls http://interiorillusionsfx.com/ventianII.aspx it looks a little brighter and more yellow on my screen it's kind of dulled burnt orange in reality, dark solid oliveish couch and solid sage-y greenish chair( going to get another one , no idea as to color as yet) white trim. dark walnut wood floor, probably going to get a off white shaggier type area rug. i am having a real time figuring out what kind of pattern to put on the cornices i am going to make, i want them to pull the topaz, furniture and accent color together...husband loves these sheers http://www.target.com/dp/B000RB5O9O...=bottom-5&pf_rd_m=A1VC38T7YXB528&pf_rd_t=5101 ( not really what i had in mind but i am getting my way with most of the other rooms so i would like to let him have some say in this one .) so any ideas about the cornices, other chair ( maybe brown leather?)or ottoman? thinking of making the sheers into a soft roman shade and then an upholstered cornice maybe matching the ottoman(s), depending on what i get or do. I'm thinking either plum/purple( sheers have the topaz, some green and a little purple) or light blue for accents ie pillows etc. the lamps i have now are verdigris copper, need another. it's a little room, only other big thing is a armoire for the tv in a dark walnut french country style( other furniture is probably more "vintage-y" looking than contemporary, but not technically traditional,so french country-ish style, rolled arms and backs, no skirts but curvey wood legs etc thinking of a bombe type chest for an end table by one of the chairs)
so any ideas? thanks for any help!
