Z on Jan 26, 2013Will do Phyllis. If he doesn't get the rods up you can always drape the panels over your sofa and take a picture.Helpful Reply

The Vintage Daisy on Jan 26, 2013Being that your walls a a similar color to your furniture I would go with a comination of the colors you listed. It wil add more interest to the room and not be just another block of color in the room. For example a grouping of vases in teal, sage and yellow would look lovely on a dark table. Or a painting with a strong sage background and some of the other colors in it too would look good on the wall.Helpful Reply

Z on Jan 26, 2013Oh Plyllis, I love the fabrics in your pillows and drapery. I'm a fabric collector and I'd have bought those panels just because they are so darn gorgeous! I agree with The Vintage Daisy in that I'd use a variety of the colors in the pillow for a more sophisticated look. I don't see the spring green or yellow in the fabrics though.Helpful Reply

Phyllis M on Jan 26, 2013the picture doesn't show the yellow or sage, my camera isn't the best. I like your ideas Daisy, maybe I can post pics after the room is finished, Hopefully tomorrrow. Thanks for the input.Becky I got the drapes on sale at Penny's, they are a beautiful teal color, and I fell in love with them the moment I laid eyes on them!Helpful Reply

Z on Jan 26, 2013I should have known. JCP is my go to place for WTs if I don't plan on making them myself. I love color so adding the greens and yellows along with the blue/teal would be beautiful. In fact yellow blue and green is my favorite three color combo. The shades in your fabrics will be different than my standard colors, but still just as stunning.Helpful Reply

Phyllis M on Jan 26, 2013All my WT's come from JCP. Always having a good sale. The floral pillows beleive it or not came from Dollar General on clearance for $3.00 each. I couldn't have made them for that price! The solid ones are from K Mart 2 for $ 14.99. I am a thrift shopper, never pay full price for anything.I was thinking floral arrangements in bright yellow, and I have a lot of aqua/teal glass bottles also.Helpful Reply
