I don't know what is wrong with me, but after years of *thinking* I might have possibly made a good interior designer, I suddenly came to the realization today that I stink at it!I am terrible about buying a room full of clutter and then hating it all and going out and buying more! I love so many types of decor and every new thing that comes out just calls to me "buy me"!
I really need some expert decorating opinions on my living room PLEASE!
Ok .... biggest problem, I don't know what style I want. *sigh* I have always loved victorian, but it really isn't practical and I really can't afford to do it "right". I don't like the ultra modern, where everything looks too hard to sit on (lol) and I do still like a little bit of dazzle. I guess I am wanting something kind of formal but cozy at the same time. I don't know ... I need about 3 or 4 living rooms to meet all of my styles!
My walls are red, have been a couple of years, and because our ceiling is pretty darn high, hubby would REALLY like to keep the red for at least a few more years!I recently bought this very large painting, which I thought looked good with high ceiling, but now I'm having trouble fitting large enough furniture under it. Also, because the painting has a victorian flair, I don't know what to put with it.
Soooooooo, do I work with this NEW painting and decorate around it ... or do I store it away for a future date and start ALL over with a new inspiration piece?
Here is the painting ... and remember I have to keep the red walls!

Also, I have to keep my new entertainment center, but right now I hate basically everything I have on it. That is another place I have trouble with is finding what to put on the shelves!
Can someone help me use at least my entertainment center and my red walls and work up a sofa, chair, table plan for me?
