NEW REQUEST FOR MARIA


RED and  GRAY  IN DECORATING
Thank you for your purchase  




Option #1
Because the red capet has a lot of blue in it - it may clash with a red cabinet.  Right now your color choices are very heavy and dark for a small space.    

  • I would change out the rug to a light gray shag
  • Then add the red sideboard,
  • a solid red trunk for a coffee table 
  • and then a large cabinet with Red Chinese character doors - and the sides a brown to match the TV cabinet. 
  • Maybe place a mirror on top of your TV cabinet to brighten up the piece and make it look more modern. 
  • add a mirrored garden stool to repeat the metal in your sofa
Option #2
You can keep the red rugs
  • Paint your TV cabinet a light gray - you can also mount with the mirror
  • add a light weight tall cabinet - open weave so it's not too heavy in your space. 
  • The add a sideboard that is also painted gray on the front.  And the brown stain a lighter color like the tall cabinet. 
  • Add 2 red lamps to repeat your red
  • another place to repeat the red is in the artwork
  • the gray and white print in on an accent chair will also lighten up the space. 







Possible side chair selection



Add 2 small stools and use them as your coffee table.

THE LOOK OF A RED SIDEBOARD IN A DINING ROOM






This red cabinet is shown with a pine mirror.  This can give you the idea - of mixing the red sideboard with a tall stripped cabinet in the same room. 




TALL CABINETS - 
looking for a tall cabinet measuring 
150w x 220h x 60d cm
60 "w x 87" h x 18" - 23" d


What type do you have in mind to narrow the search?


02-G2527  since there is some red in the artwork and background it would blend with the red sideboard. 


02-G2268 is a very rustic looking piece and simple in design with ample storage.  Nice hardware. 


This is an old elmwood cabinet we stripped and used shellac instead of lacquer as a finish.  We beefed up the brass hardware.  We can find a cabinet we can do this to.

A very tall chinoiserie cabinet that comes in 2 pieces.  This is just an example but I know we can find one.  The sides are probably dark brown stain so it's not a tall red piece all over.

This is a large kitchen cabinet.  It showcases an open weave so that items stored can breath.  It's also great for storing wine bottles on the bottom area because it's slatted.

Wedding cabinets.  Some are ornate that tell a story - others are very simple.
