It’s been about 3 1/2 years in our house and I’ve yet to decorate. Sounds pretty ridiculous but it is true. When we moved in it was March ’06 and I had the Monsta in May. Life was so busy with a newborn and then after that it was one excuse after the other. Well, now I’ve finally got my livingroom underway. We had a wall unit built that was designed by my Aunt and now she is helping us with the rest of the room. We have picked out fabric that I will make pillows with and a window treatment. I’m really excited. I’m also working on a collection of photographs that will hang above our couch. It is a huge wall and I decided to do four 20 x 20 prints. The accented colors are red, yellow and orange. Thinking about some flower shots. What do you think of this one?
Does it work well together with this one?
I’m not sure about it, I totally need advice…….
.hmmmmm, the more I look at this, the more I don’t think they go together. The Left one is still my first choice. Not sure what I will do.
I like all of them. I really like the first one.
I most definitely favor the one on the right….and like you mentioned above, I don’t really know if they go together. Hmmm…if you did pick the one on the right, perhaps you could pair it with something more red/pink to pull out that bright hint of color in the center of the flower? I think the right one just gives you more colors to work with.
I agree with Allegra. I like the one on the right and think it would pair really well with the “Upside Down” flower (is it a lily of some sort?). They sort of have similar colors and I also love blue/green background colors together although not sure if that goes with your color scheme in the room. Ok, did I just confuse things more than help out?
The right one definitely has the colors I want to accent but I’m just not sure altogether. It does match the lily one but I’m thinking I need to find a new subject. A variation on a theme that is not just color. If I had the same flower, four different ways – that might work. Ugh – decorating is HARD!
Thanks for the input – It totally helps me see things clearer.
<3 you guys!
decorating IS hard…especially on a budget..that’s why I haven’t done it in EIGHT years…now THAT’s bad!
Hilarious Ems. Now you will have a clean canvas to work on soon. Your closing is around the corner!
Okay…I love all your work so picking any of your prints would be hard…but here goes.
I love the one on the right…really love it. But honestly, I think it looks better rectangular than square…in my opinion. I like the yellow offset in the blue background. Since that wall is a long wall, have you thought of doing a collection of prints, not necessarily all square. You see that in stores like Target all the time, but so not usually see it in the home decor magazines..
How about a larger assortment of prints, this way you do not have to coordinate all the colors. Say 3 rectangular prints. They say everything looks better to the eye if paired in threes…
Does this at all make sense? Nursing the baby while typing this and he is kicking me…On the right side…I think he also likes the print on the right better
Maybe you should just delete this comment after you read it! LOL
