The Misfit, from IF, has graciously offered to help me figure out what to do with my problem room. She’s brilliant at design, and I’m not so much. She said “Show me pictures of your room and of a room you like and I’ll give you helpful hints” or something along those lines. Yippee! I may actually figure out this room before we move. I thought some of you might like to play along. Look at the pictures and tell me what you would do with this decorating dilemma.
I think this room was supposed to be a formal dining room, but it is much too small for our family to use that way. It is right off the entryway and between the kitchen and family room. The only thing that is a must is the stained glass hanging in the window, it is too difficult to move and covers the view of my neighbor’s ugly air conditioner.
Here are some pics of the family room, too. It is not “done” but is the room I am happiest with so far. It is the perfect green 🙂 (Green tea by Behr) I like Art Deco, modern and antique thrown together in an eclectic mishmash. I don’t know if it’s relevant, but I also collect Mexican Talavera pottery.

I can’t wait to hear the suggestions. P.S. The Green chairs were originally purchased for the piano room, but I couldn’t find what I wanted for the Family Room. If I found the right chairs for in there, they could be moved.
