How can I match painted metal chairs with a wooden table?
Budget is pretty low right now and I'm trying to find creative ways to give a face lift to our apartment. I have a nice wooden table which I want to use in my dining room as I do not have a dining table. The table is a golden pecan color. I also have 4 metal chairs which were originally red and have been painted over in black sitting aside on by back balcony and not being used. I've bought lovely beige tie pillows for the chairs and am thinking of painting them in the same color as the table. The table will sit next to my open plan kitchen and the color of the wood matches my kitchen perfectly. I have stainless steel kappliancesliences. Should I paint my chairs in an aluminum color or try to match it to the tables wood color? Any other ideas?
hi, if it were me then i would partially paint the chairs and the table to match, if the table is wood then just add a little paint for ... See More

What color to paint my walls for a rustic, Adirondack, cabin theme for my living room... and more ??
I have recently purchased a grey couch and love seat wtih real lodge pole pine end tables and coffee table as accents. I removed everything off of the walls as i think i would like to paint the walls to give it a darker cozier feel (i rent so putting up wood or paneling is out of the question). What shades of paint would be good? My accessories for the walls have the rustic browns, greens, dark reds, dark blues. I would like to mimick wood tones without actually doing any faux finishes. This theme will be going through out the house, but i dont want to have the same color walls in every room. Any suggestions? I made an appointment with an interior decorator and she will be coming over for a free consultation. has anyone ever used an interior decorator and what can i expect from her consultation?
u named the colors... rustic brown, burnt orange/rust.... deep green... burgandy & deep blues. but if u really want a wood feel on u'r ... See More
