How do I choose a complementing color to use with a bright yellowy( school bus yellow) to paint inside ?

Saturday, September 19th, 2009

I have this color already in my kitchen. This meets up with an open air design that is visible to the entry way and the living room. I don’t want it to look like a crayon threw up, but I want to use one other bright color for the entry way. Also what more plain color whites, ivory cream will match the yellow. Please suggest colors or websites that may be helpful. Thanks you for your advice.

What combination of colors should I use to decorate my home?

Monday, September 14th, 2009

I plan on decorating my apt. soon with dark oak mission furniture, along with accent pieces like lamps, shelves, and picture frames in espresso…. but I don’t just wanna limit myself to those colors. I’d like to add a little touch of ivory or bone white to my decor but don’t know how to work with them. Do these colors go well with dark oak and espresso? And are there any other colors that I should consider using? I’m trying to give my place a warm cozy look, but I need some ideas.

Can I mix leather and fabric in a living room?

Sunday, September 6th, 2009

I have a Lane off-white sofa and loveseat - very large and “billowly”. Now I have a larger living room and want to add a couple of easy chairs but that stlyle has been discontinued. I thought about getting 2 paprika and ivory patterned overstuffed upholstered chairs along with matching throw pillows to put on the sofa and loveseat. Will that “go together”? Any advice is appreciated.

What color should my curtains be in my living room?

Thursday, July 2nd, 2009

My living room is in the process of being re-done. My walls are a gold coin color, we have a medium-dark green sofa (with accents of maroon and gold in it), the wood in the room will eventually be a dark grain wood, and the trim is antique white (ivory). I am confused as to what would be a good color for curtains. I know brown would look good, but I want to avoid putting too much brown in my house. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Is there a good way to wash shear curtains?

Friday, May 22nd, 2009

I have these shear, panel curtains, and they desperately need washing (I’ve never washed them before). They’re not the thick type of curtains. They’re see-through and very light-weight - basically the curtains you put underneath the REAL curtains. They’re color is like an ivory or cream.

Is there a way to wash them? If so, what temperature, and do you use bleach? Also, how do you dry them? Thanks!

Tuesday, May 5th, 2009

I am buying a lacy comforter set. They have two colors, white and ivory. Should I buy the ivory set with white sheets and white pillows, or should I buy the white set with ivory sheets and ivory pillows? They also have a valance in white or ivory, argh, I hate decisions…

How do I find out information on an iridescent wedding gown/dress?

Sunday, May 3rd, 2009

My wedding is in 2 years, but I’m thinking that it is going to take that long finding my gown. I’m not interested in a white gown. Traditionally speaking I’m not supposed to anyway. But I really would like to have an ivory/cream colored gown with a dusty rose color underneath. I’m having a hard time finding anything on the web. Do I contact fabric stores, go to bridal shops, how do i find information on any wedding gowns?
Thanks guys for the help!
