I know it's not the D&R board, but you guys have good taste. (pip)

I need help w/ my family room colors. It's so dark and dull in there!  I have walls painted the 1st color.(SW Macadamia)  A sofa the color in the middle...olive green. Then all dark wood furniture and a dark brown leather chair.

I need some accents - artwork, lamps, maybe some vases for the mantel. But I don't know which color to incorporate. Please to help? Thanks!!

  • Poppy color, or plum?

  • Repaint.  Seriously, i like that color - I had a kitchen that color and it was really nice. 

    Something bright that pops like a bright turquoise blue, hot pink, or even a yellow I think would be good.

  • I agree with plum
    I like salad bar, I like Despicable Me, tosh 2.0, I like Connect 4, Freedom of Speech, David Fincher, sidewalk, I like 1-800-SLIM, yo mama jokes, strawberry, Wilmer Valmavelma, Leon J. Panetta, ice skating for fun, not to save life. Cheese. Is for mouse. Are you Mick Mouse? WHY DON'T YOU GET IN YOUR SPACESHIP LIKE MICK MOUSE?

  • I like the idea of plum. I like those colors, they are almost exactly what I did and I accented with a grayish blue and white. You could also do white, turquoise, red... those are easy colors to work with.

    Can I put this pillow in your room and then you can get some things that go from there?

  • I like lola's approach.  find one thing that you absolutely love and build the room up around it using similar colors.

    Repainting is not an option. My family room and kitchen are all open and it took Dh and I 14 hours to paint it. And I love it in the kitchen (it looks good w/ my slightly orangey maple cabinets...tones them down a bit)  and I even love the color in the family room. It's just too earthy in there.

    EDIT: I see it's a Crate and Barrel pillow. Thanks!

  • :)) Glad to help!
