Re: Calling Those with a Knack for Decorating...
Love these color combos, although, it looks like a motel room.

3. Put in new flooring, probably carpet, but MAYBE hardwood, depending on the final budget Jeff gives me.
4. Buy new bedding and curtains
5. Jeff is building this entertainment armoire for our TV/Media -
Attachment 3281 Attachment 3282
--He'll probably stain it with a dark stain, but I'm not opposed to painting it--which would require me to choose a color. 
6. Pick up a couple of bedside tables and lamps, and
7. Replace the existing ceiling fan/light fixture combo with something like this:
I know what kind of furniture I like--dark woods, simple lines, I'm not all that frou-frou. What I have a MAJOR problem with is picking colors.
Can you post ideas with pictures for combinations of curtains, wall color and bedding? Please, please, please?????? I'm totally stumped, and I've walked out of Lowe's multiple times without paint because I can't decide.
What I don't like:
Orange, purple or pink, or anything that looks tropical/jungle/safari. My husband doesn't want anything that looks too feminine, but he's left it all up to me, other than that.
I don't want to paint the walls white. (They're already a cream color.) I've gone with white everything (walls, curtains, bedding) in the past because I couldn't decide on colors. All white linens have some charm, but I don't want to cop out again just because I can't decide.
The trim and doors are dark cherry. If we do carpet, I'll probably go with something textured like this:
Attachment 3280
I've been wanting to take this project on ever since we moved in, and now that I can it's STRESSING ME OUT because I am abysmally bad at color choices. |
Decorating hmmmm? I may have to get in touch with my feminine side for that girlfriend

Re: Calling Those with a Knack for Decorating...
Girls...oh, wait...PEOPLE,
I have gone WAY off the reservation. You will not believe....I will chart my line of thought later, with pictures, and I'll try to scan in my grade-school quality drawing.
You are an inspiring group! 
Right now I'm working up a price list for my husband. That takes priority....  (He didn't seem TOO worried.)
