Wednesday, August 1st, 2012

Isn’t this room above absolutely beautiful? Look at how well the sofa and rug work together. I researched that gorgeous Chesterfield sofa- sold out. I just love this room!  I have gotten such a big response from my post Best Wall Colors For Stained Trim, with the above photo, that I thought I would find a few more rooms to share with you. This time I uploaded the photos to Sherwin Williams ChipIt! to see what wall colors would come up:

I think that the colors that are shown in the photos are a realistic representation of the “true” colors. When looking at colors online through your computer screen, remember that although it is a good guide in color selection, the colors are not 100% accurately depicted.

Pretty cool! I think I like this new Chip It! tool. Maybe not a perfect match, but a good head start in the right direction:

I am still not a fan of dark stained trim with white walls:

Just my opinion.

Here are a few Chip It! results from rooms shown in my previous post:

It seems to always take me so long to find that perfect comforter for my bedroom. Does anyone else have that problem? I can easily help others find that perfect bedding, but it takes such a long time to find the one for me!nnnfnnf

Maybe it’s because I was not looking, but I found some very pretty, eye catching bedding sets when I was walking through Target the other day.

I really like Target’s Springmaid Bedding Collection. I have found Springmaid is a quality product at a good price. Plus the colors and patterns in this collection are beautiful! I like to be able to choose my own separates of the Springmaid collections to put my room together with my own personality:

The best part was that they were on sale. For a new king size reversible comforter and shams, new sheet set that works beautifully with the set and a king bed skirt only cost $140.00. Pretty good don’t you think? Of course I can not find a picture of my new comforter online. Target must only sell this pattern in stores. But here it is in my room:

Here is my bedroom before:

I have a sweet, wonderful person I work with online helping her with color selections and decorating. Her name is Rose and we have done quite a few projects together.
