Decorating & Remodeling - August 2007

We are moving into a house and the owners painted the walls a pretty rust color, but I'm not sure what colors go with it.

I want to have a brighter, and more colorful bedroom than I have currently. Now it's shades of blue and my room is small so it looks dark. I am going to get this comforter ( http://www5.jcpenney.com/jcp/ProductsHOM.aspx?ItemID=1069022&GrpTyp=ENS&CmCatId=SearchResults|SearchDepartment ) . I was thinking of doing half the wall with this wallpaper ( http://www.decoratetoday.com/products/wallpaper/product_detail.asp?prid=1052110&cart=1&ptn=AB31068&Cartquantity=2&ref=1&Scrm=0&stype=&flagback=False&si=4&ref=1 ) and then doing the other half .... a color. I'm not sure what one, do you have any ideas?

We're choosing add ons for a new home and I know that this will be expensive. Just wondering if it's worth it.

I just moved into a nice two bedroom town house but it is small and has like almost no room for storage. I do have a nice size kind og mid walk in closets in each room and the down stairs has a mid size walk in for a coats. I need help with storage. Any recommendation on shoes (I have about 20 pairs), clothes no longer in season, kids storage (for a 4 year old), and my husband has a massive hat and sneaker collection any help with that.

Thank you to all. All advise will be used well.

Okay, so I'm moving in with my boyfriend and his place is pretty dull. I really want to make it look great.......but we don't have alot of money. I have our bedroom, living room and kitchen to decorate and I'm running out of ideas! I have the bathrooms and our daughter's room completed. Are there any places I can go for cheap stuff but nice looking?

I am going to repaint these rooms. Currently they are both white. I want to paint them different colors, but they share a wall that runs the length of the two rooms. How can I make a separation point between the two rooms & colors?

My wife and I want to completely renovate two bathrooms in a home we are purchasing. There are just too many local choices to choose from. Are there any nationwide chains out there? In particular, ones that offer financing?

We're remodeling, and the designer suggested 5' x 5'. Would that work? I'm thinking rectangular would be better than square.

Our home is about 2500 sq feet and we love it. It is roomy, has neutral colors throughout (light oak floors and Benjamin Moore wheeling neutral/carrington beige/richmond gray in adjoining areas to kitchen) and soft fern on the kitchen walls. Cabinets are maple stained and with the darker floor makes the kitchen look small and dark. Help! We want to replace the counters, keep the fern green paint color and possibly do a backsplash. Our style is cottage comfort with mostly greens and whites and small amt pinks/burgundy throughout our home. Was thinking about an atrium white on the cabinets with oil rubbed bronze knobs and a quartz or granite taupe contertop. What do you think? What about the backsplash? Thanks for your help...
