MN Mom on Apr 16, 2016Look at warm neutrals like deep ivory, a shade of warm gold or even a gray. It's hard to see from your photo if your sectional is gray or blue or? But I think a natural color would be a nice backdrop for the warm woods of the wall hangings you have. Look at Country Living magazine for some inspirationHelpful Reply

MN Mom on Apr 16, 2016Here are some basics for primitive decorating: Primitive-style colors are rich and earthy -- barn reds, navy blues, sage greens, deep yellows, dark browns and steel grays. Colors in early American home furnishings often faded from sun exposure and wear-and-tear, creating weathered, softer shades. Create a primitive color scheme in bold earthy colors with a few soft accents for a richer look. Incorporate softer shades of the primitive color palette punctuated with a few rich-colored items to produce a quieter, more tranquil atmosphere. Apply a neutral paint color to your living room walls. Soft beige, creamy caramel, light gray or vanilla white make ideal paint colors to provide a clean backdrop for your primitive furnishings. Cover your windows with simple curtains made from natural fabrics, such as cotton, gauze or linen. Fabrics in plaid, gingham or striped patterns convey the primitive look. You can also use a fabric in a solid color for a more monochromatic appearance. Use your primitive color scheme to select coordinating fabrics. Hope this helps, John! (And Janet, too)Helpful Reply
