Tapestry Table
What can I do with this long wall?
Here’s a picture of my wall (ignore all the Harry Potter, haha): http://img250.imageshack.us/my.php?image=0706081634aoe9.jpg
So my problem? It’s just… long. It’s broken up a bit by the change from carpet to vinyl, but it’s still long and awkward. Any decoration tips?
One of the big problems is that nothing really matches, because my landlady (who furnished this apartment) uses her sketchy pack-rat collections for decoration. So, because it’s her furniture, I can’t really take anything out, put it into storage and replace it with other things.
But along with that black futon, table, and bookcase at the right, I’ve got two other little white bookcases (about the height of my table) to use in this decoration process.
Ideally, I’d like to be able to work with what I’ve got, instead of going out and getting a couple more pieces of furniture. But if you have ideas for tapestries, floor lamps, bead curtains, whatever – I’m all ears!
Thanks in advance!
by dividing the room it will make it look shorter. such as an area to sit and watch tv, and an area for dinning (or storage, whatever you need). this can be done in a number of ways…
to do this you can arrange the furniture so that it makes a divider, like turing the futon. and then placing a small rug in that area. or you could utilize your short bookcases as a room divider.
even if your set on keeping furniture against a wall, a bead screen could work as well (ikea has some for cheap). paint can also be used by creating a pattern like a large X, stretching from corner to corner. this makes a focal point at the center and appears shorter. another paint trick is to chose two shades that are close, but one is darker. put the darker shade on the end walls and leave the long one the lighter color. hope this helps!!!!!!!!
