As soon as you add a pattern the room will change dramatically. I would use an antiqued gilded gold pole and rings to hang the panels to play up the mirror and chandy.

I think the red room was beautiful, but the white gives your room an updated and fresh look. Boy, does your furniture look beautiful in the newly painted room. <br /><br />I am going through this very same dilema! I have a gold/yellow kitchen and great room area that I am repainting. Probablly light taupe or ivory too. I will have to get a sample of Aria Ivory for my sample board.<br />Thanks for the inspirational push!<br />YvonneYvonne @ StoneGablehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10071383858803336708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7780084414817956315.post-81146623612487295532010-09-09T17:30:59.706-07:002010-09-09T17:30:59.706-07:00Stacy, thanks for stopping by.
