Kim, What about some wrought iron? A wrought iron coffee table or end table? Would be strong but more open....

And what about...no curtains? (I see them peeking behind the sofa...) GOrgeous...but again...thinking of reducing distractions. Some blinds or shutters instead?

I would love wrought iron! Would you go with black or a gold tone? Also, with glass tops or wood?

No curains would be GREAT ... then no kitties can climb them and they won't collect cat hair! LOL! I do have the wide slatted white blinds behind the curtains .... they um need to be cleaned from kitty sneeze too!

There should be choices other than black or gold. What about a verdigris? Or a brown? We bought a brown iron bed. When I had trouble finding a lamp to match that I like..I bought a white one and spray painted it. I would go for glass...lighter look.

No curtains might be good for your allergies as well. Curtains do hold molds, cat hair, etc. (For that reason I have no curtains in my house...)

Right .... I didn't really mean Gold Gold ... I would love a brown tone. I love shutters, but do you think they would be the right style if I get a more clean-lined Contemporary sofa?


Husky Mom - I'm (unfortunately) not keeping the painting. It's just the wrong style for what I want to go with now! I agree a lighter shade couch against the dark wall too!

You might even find wrought iron in the same tone as your entertainment center.....

Here is the pciture we decided on...wanting something simple....


It is five foot by five foot....
