I’m getting my house painted. I just received a quote. The guy told me 1 color was nice. Said others were nice 2, but wouldn’t coordinate w/ main color. The colors are Sherwin Williams Quixotic Plum as an accent wall in the family room and Mystic Mauve on the other walls. The main areas would be Latte. That’s where he said the clash is coming.

This is how downstairs flows: Entry way to a 2 story foyer Immediately in front of you on right,stairs. To the left formal area – living & dining. From that room, or a hall, you come to the kitchen w/ a bay eat in. All those wall will be in Latte. Then you come to the family room. The wall facing you will be Quixotic Plum. The others will be Mystic Mauve. His suggestion is to do it Latte and do the other formal room QP. (no furniture yet – wanted the formal red).

What is your opinion? Is 00 +200 4 paint bad? I’d say it’s 1300 sq ft area – plus upstairs hall. The trim would be white – said cheaper to touch up stairrail.
I didn’t like the MM, so trying exclusive Plum. it’s a shade darker. Also trying nomadic desert – 1 shade lighter than latte.

P.S.:

Mystic Mauve is a grayish-lavender – not pink @ all. Quixotic is a dark plum w/ a bluish-gray base. Latte is the color of the drink.

Alright, i really need help, because I’m really terrible at decorating.

My walls are a pretty bright teal.
Heres pretty close to the color (Sorry you have to go through a little to see it)

In the Search for Color bar, put in Biscay. Also Surfer. And even Tempo Teal.
My walls are around those colors.

Now what I want to do is get a vintage chic type of room.
My furniture is all black.
Right now my bedding is black and white. But that can be changed.
I was thinking of getting a pale(ish) pink comforter. But what color sheets?

Then I need a little seating thing. I was thinking a papasan chair with a cream color cushion. But those aren’t really vintage looking are they? So what kind of seating thing would look kind of vintage? Also then on one wall I wanted to set up some shelves and stuff and have like a white rose thing going on there. Not real ones, just almost like a collection of a bunch of white rose type of things.

Then I need a rug! What color should it be?

And what else can I do to my room to make it look more vintage chic?

Thanks!

I’m putting in a wet bar and trying to think of something original to do. The kitchen color is Clary Sage, a Sherwin Williams neutral green. The living room is Relaxed Khaki, another SW color. I have cherry hardwood floors and white cabinets. A dark granite countertop is soon to come.

I want to put in a wet bar that would have a sink, dark wood cabinet doors, a granite countertop and a mirror with glass shelves to display glasses. Would a led-color shelf work with my current color scheme? Does the neutral / natural colors look clash with led accent lights?

Check out the link to see what I’m thinking (the shelves would be capable of changing to virtually any possible color, so i could adjust it to match the green I have). Is that too much? I’m new to the home decor thing, so feel free to be honest. I’m afraid I’m getting to into a cool idea and not going with what I should do.
