Vintage Decorative
Posted in Garden Antiques on 03/17/2010 01:14 am by adminWould this be TOO MUCH? (Decorating new bedroom)?
I have no idea what I'm doing and would LOVE some opinions! I've been here for 5 weeks now, stuck in a room with PEACH walls and a horrid, GREEN rug.
My blanket has a rustic-red and gold design, matching decorative pillows, gold sheets, and a rustic red bed-skirt. I've been thinking about some wallpaper instead of paint and I really, really like the vintage looking designs, or so they're called. I've found some wonderfully matching red and gold ones, but I'm afraid of it being TOO MUCH.
Should I find a design that's JUST gold or JUST red? Or could I do like, half perfectly-matching red&gold wallpaper, and then half the wall ONE solid color, with some sort of wooden divider in between? Haha. Like I said, I have no idea what I'm doing.. help?!
OH and for the floors, definitely hard wood.
if i were you i would paint the walls a rich creme color and maybe put faux panels in of the wall paper. wall paper frankly sucks to hang, it is a headache to match up the patterns and can be to over bearing. it sounds like you have a kind of formal fancy design going on. if you just put up some panels of wall paper and frame it out in thin molding it would look very nice. the best part is you dont have to do it on every wall. you can do it on one wall the will then be your interest wall. check out the links below for some pictures of what i am talking about, not sure i explained myself very well, good luck
