Here is an example of how I like to use color with neutral. I would have even used an area rug with some color. From Carey - I think I would like a bit more color than this. I'm also more minimalist with knick knacks. We need more things on our walls but I don't want to deal with that much stuff on the coffee table.
Add a shelf- what if we did live edge? Or what if we add a mantel and make it look like or use a real railroad tie. You can buy them on Etsy or make them. Just take chains to them and a hammer and bash them up and stain them and they look great. They sell the exact size at Lows. I’m doing on in a house right now.
Overkill with the media center, but similar to my parents set up. We could paint that one wall an accent color. There are no rules that we have to paint everything beige or taupe (light brown) or whatever! We could do a light blue on that wall. Depends on what floor we pick out. If it’s warm we should pick warm color and vice versa.
I’m trying to get idea of your style of chair. Do you want high back? Upholstered? Padded back? Or like the Herman miller wakes chair I have? Arm chair? Please add some Dining chairs you like. From Carey - I'm open to lots of styles of dining chairs - I just want them to be comfortable. That's #1 priority. I want people to be able to sit and linger after dinner.
I like the look of these chairs with the table.
More of a grey wood. These chairs are Herman Miller about $350 a piece, but ikea make a similar and they sell copies online much cheaper if you like this look. It’s mid century modern. They’re not that uncomfortable. I own a real one hand me down. All colors of the rainbow they come in.
White chairs beautiful contrast
I like this look.
Lighter wood
Beautiful!
That’s fun but maybe too crazy
Like these legs too
I like this style keg instead of iron leg. Just my opinion. From Carey - I don't mind the look. I don't know how comfortable it would be.
Mixing chairs is very popular for years now.
Chairs I like
Love the lighting
Everything bit the lighting
Bench No, no benches. Not comfortable.
I love the bench idea. What do you think? No, that wouldn't be comfortable. No benches.
Love the pendant lights. Sencond thought I’m thinking we could do two cheap pendant lights or one big one. Ike’s believe it or not makes great lighting.
Fun! Love these color chairs. I like those chairs!
I like these chairs!
