Today I finished an online consultation with young lady from Mentor, Ohio. She wrote: “I am starting a redesign in my living room and everything is going except our chocolate brown leather sofa which is fairly new. I want to make the room look updated and fresh. I would like to stay away from beige or tan walls. Can you help bring some color in my life?”
Of course I can! :) I put some paint colors and accessories together for her and she loved the ideas! I wanted to share with you but not exactly what I had given her. So I changed a few accessories and this is how it came out:

What do you think? I love both the green and the blue for the paint colors. Both colors are actually darker in real life than what is seen on the computer screen. My new friend in Ohio is very happy but now is having trouble choosing between the blue walls or green! Which would you choose?
Here are the paint colors listed and where you can find the accessories:
Paint- Benjamin Moore Wedgewood Gray HC-146
Benjamin Moore Georgian Green HC-115
Striped Rug- Rugs USA
Mirror- Shades of Light
Solid Blue Pillow- Crate & Barrel
Oliveri Green Pillow- Crate & Barrel
Nesting Tables- Crate & Barrel
Lamps- Lamps Plus
Throw- Crate & Barrel

Thank you Jane!
Kelly, I LOVE what you put together for your client! The colors are terrific and the mix of patterns is perfect. Great job, such a joy to see & read. Thank you!
Jane, Snob
Thanks Sheila! I do love this color combo too.
I would go with the blue, because I think she can have alot of fun with the green accents! What a great colour palette you put together, Kelly! It’s hip, fresh, and totally stylish!
I love this chair too! It is from Crate & Barrel- http://www.crateandbarrel.com/tess-chair/s163107. Good luck!
I really like your suggestions. I am dealing with a very large brown leather RH leather recliner that my husband loves and a wedge wood gray DR but the living room walls in my open concept house are C2 Immersion. I was thinking of getting a navy sofa so your post is reinforcing this idea. Do you think I should reprint my LR walls Georgian green?
My adjoining kitchen is SW Opaline.
I would appreciate a source for the navy chair.
Thanks.h
Sounds really pretty Karen!
I would go with the blue. I actually painted my guest room and a bathroom a similar blue and I have brown carpet and tile, etc and it looks really awesome. I get all kinds of compliments. It all started with a shower curtain, so I can’t take credit, but I love it.
