I really ...Thank you for all the awesome advice!!! I really appreciate it! Okay, this is dumb but I cannot look up at a TV, it kills me. Remember I am super short, haha. I could not mount a tv up high because my neck would hurt to look up at it! That is a fabulous suggestion, though. I am moving forward with stair collages and ordering some more canvases and crossing my fingers that it all comes together. You are all the best! xoxoJoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07748855766544083628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3862800146973541645.post-58111826259403588092010-01-18T20:59:36.680-08:002010-01-18T20:59:36.680-08:00Are you crazy? You don't need any help! But.....Are you crazy? You don't need any help! But...I do have one idea...what about hanging the mirror about the fireplace horizontally instead of vertically and maybe putting something on each side so at least that part of the room feels more symmetrical to you! Or you could always mount t.v. above fireplace (think like my house)! Such a great focal point...i know:)! I love all the black and white and a photo collage up the stairs would be awesome!Annie G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10469946791783485807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3862800146973541645.post-11598801801089931052010-01-16T11:37:07.858-08:002010-01-16T11:37:07.858-08:00I understand about sparse, I took my Christmas dec...I understand about sparse, I took my Christmas decorations down and am dying at how undecorated my house feels! Anyway all I can say is that I LOVE your wall and trim color and I love the hardwood, so you have awesome bones to work with, I'd say you should find some great fabrics to make pillows and use to pull accent colors from, but what a fun time you'll have doing that, and I want to see the results, plus no one is really looking too much at your decor because they're too busy being distracted by your awesome pictures! Love all the Black and Whites!Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07826571681863001796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3862800146973541645.post-9547857698400385742010-01-16T04:26:22.383-08:002010-01-16T04:26:22.383-08:00Hey Joy love the blue walls and I think you're...Hey Joy love the blue walls and I think you're going to fill them up great.<br /><br />My suggestions:<br />*bw photo collage<br />*vinyl art (see link below)<br /><br />good luck!<br /><br />http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=38607624&ref=sr_gallery_21&&ga_search_query=vinyl+wall&ga_search_type=handmade&ga_page=&includes[]=tags&includes[]=titleMelanie Reyeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12498769123566432550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3862800146973541645.post-48525145409080479492010-01-15T22:07:02.412-08:002010-01-15T22:07:02.412-08:00please call me crazy!

You put up molding and you hang blinds in it that match. You could do that on the other side of your fireplace! It's easy to do...just a thought! I think your house looks great though!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3862800146973541645.post-10327510786783388882010-01-15T21:24:08.194-08:002010-01-15T21:24:08.194-08:00we can chat more about this tomorrow....we can chat more about this tomorrow....The Peach....https://www.blogger.com/profile/05317178066403034625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3862800146973541645.post-38851764443718869332010-01-15T21:21:18.703-08:002010-01-15T21:21:18.703-08:00Well, as you know, most of my walls are bare as we...Well, as you know, most of my walls are bare as well....but I agree, the placement of the fireplace is retarded...are you going to mount a TV over it?...you almost need some built in's to the side of it to balance the room out....but that's probably not happeneing in this house. I wouldn't stress toooo much, this isn't permanent. Since you know you won't be there for too much longer, experiement! Hang pictures!!! Make your little book wreath! Hang mirrors! Get creative! It's not permanent....The Peach....https://www.blogger.com/profile/05317178066403034625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3862800146973541645.post-83983059429086972102010-01-15T19:59:06.075-08:002010-01-15T19:59:06.075-08:00Love your home Joy!

I saw in a pottery barn catalog that they put a collage of pics ( I believe all b&w) up the entire length of the stair case and it was darling. Love your wall colors and the wreath on the mirror. I am no help beyond that but love your house!Brookehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16706088300347842623noreply@blogger.com
