What are the best to decorate with these colors?
Question:The floor will be white w/ tan and light green and a burgundy rose in the middle of each tile. Obviously the colors of the walls we got from the floor. Sea green for the dining area and the tanish for the living area. I can be quite crafty, though I am pregnant so part of me wants to "get done". This is the first time "remodeling". any ideas, thanks.
Answers:
I think I know the exact tile you are refering to...did you get it at Lowe's? And i think you are on the right track. The greens and tans are good colors...also remember that you could also go with that deep burgundy as an accent color.
Anything natural. Because all of your colors are found in nature. Decide on the feel i.e English Country, Shabby Chic, Tropical, Country, Contemporary. This is so important and will help you tremendously. It will give you direction and give your rooms that "put together look"!
Once you have the look this will dictate the shades of colors to use. for instance Tropicals are more browns and deep greens with tan and textures. Shabby Chic lends more to pastels and florals as does English country. Look through magazines and only collect pictures that truly express your personality. Use them for inspiration. Make use of a color wheel (many online) Colors that are directly across the wheel from your color or right next to your color are compliments.
Enjoy turning your house into a home!
