Tic-Tac-Toe Floral Prints

wilma — Sun, 20 Sep 2020 20:39:23 GMT

I like this room. I like most of the colors, furnishings, prints, accessories, & artwork. I think everything works together very well. I like the pop of green with the black & white. The floral prints also add more color to the room, although the shape reminds me of a tic-tac-toe grid. I might not hang so many.

A white sofa isn’t vey practical, and I probably wouldn’t choose the style of the green chair with gold metal. Still, overall, the room is pleasing to my eyes.

One thing I really dislike, though, is the animal print rug. It would have to go.

Other opinions?

I love the pictures and arrangements. I have used them either with same size/matching frames or I have gone collage. Love the look. I don't like animal prints for the most part so I agree regarding the rug.... but great room overall!

The curtains, lamp and black and white stripe chair are perfection. I also love green with black and white. I would take the floral prints down, I like them but too much in a small space. Very nicely done room.

That rug brought back memories. More than 10 years ago when I sold furniture the company I worked for sold a rug just like that. I can't remember if we sold any.

I really like this room. It's light, bright, colorful and cheerful without being overwhelming. I might just leave it the way it is, though I agree @wilma I'm not loving the modern vibe of the green chair. I do like the color though, and I have no problems with the white sectional. In fact, I like it a lot. I don't much like the border on the curtains, but it picks up the colors in the chair and the rug. I would, however, need a real coffee table, though the ottoman could stay and serve as, well, an actual ottoman.

Shoutout to whoever hung those pictures.

It is not as easy as you think!

Except for the sofa section in front of the fireplace and ottoman/coffee table too large for this space, and too close to the sofa, I think it's well done.

Not my style, and not enough 'warmth' for me.

@wilma

This is a pleasant, cheery room.

A couple things I'd change: I dislike any animal prints, choose a different chair-maybe with a yellowish/blue print color & pillows to match or a neutral color. While the floral prints are pretty, I'd probably go with scenic prints.

The drapes aren't bad since they seem to be the light, flowy type & not heavy.

Love the stack stone on the fireplace, it's unique.

Thanks for sharing.

I wouldn't change much in this room. For some reason the border on the curtains hits my eye in a negative way. I would change to solid white.

The sectional in front of the fireplace makes no sense at all to me so I would have the L shape of the sofa facing the fireplace and the green chair next to the fireplace or maybe do away with it.

I like the rug, the prints, the placement of the prints, and the ottoman.

It's a bright pretty room. I really like black, white, and green together.

I love floral prints and green, black and white; therefore, I mainly like this room. I would like to find a rug in green, black and white.

What I really don't like is the stone on the fireplace and whatever that is on the ottoman.

I like the room. The flower color is opposite of the green on a color wheel and is the "compliment".

The picture height would be out of balance if smaller in a cathedral room.

The zebra floor rug adds unity to the drape design, as does the black and white on the left.

I would not bring out an upholstered couch in front of a fire place.

I am not a fan of upholstered coffee tables, which are too unsteady. Designers use them for a shot of color.

I like the room. The tic tac toe pictures are underwhelming. The space needs a big picture or maybe mirror.

For me, the floral prints are too much, I would get rid of those, maybe use them someplace else, and I would get rid of the rug as well. Everything else is quite nice!

I like the room a lot except I'd swap out the green for another color. I love the look of the floral prints but I'm not a huge flower person so I'd change out the flowers to a different type of print (and get rid of the floral throw pillow).

I'm not a fan of anything in this room except for maybe the ottoman. I don't care for the art above the fireplace at all.

I really don't care for this room at all.

I agree with you. The animal print rug would have to go.

While the floral prints are colorful and pretty I wouldn't put them in the living room or arrange them as shown. I would put a different rug down for sure and change the couches and chairs to my taste.
