Answer 1

Hi, what region do you live in? If you were anywhere near me I would gladly give you all my leftover paint and you could really decorate the walls with great color, thereby drawing people's eyes upward and away from the carpet.

Also, go online to learn how to make rag rugs; with scraps of fabric, including old clothes you and your friends no longer wear; make an area rug to cover the carpet in the main room.

also, make great drapes out of sheets dyed the color you want. let me know if you are in southern california, anywhere near san diego or riverside country and i would be happy to give you all of my paint.

good luck to you.

That picture is of a velour blanket, ecru in color. You can find these blankets everywhere including dollar general and walmart and probably for way less than BB&B. Oh, but I guess you want the color and not the blanket? Wal-Mart is the cheapest place I know to get paint. Sometimes at Lowes or other you can find paint near that color in their clearenced paints. Just go window shopping at first and check out all the clearence sections at super stores and home improvement stores and see what you can find. I made curtains, a headboard, and bedding out of clearenced fabric tableclothes. Anything goes as long as you like it. Garage sales are also an option as well as second hand stores. Good Luck
