Check it out. I actually did something I planned to do, in the timeframe I planned. Wonders never cease.
Pretty close to the mockup, right?
Im happy with how it looks but I think it needs a little something extra to make this "vignette" complete. Not sure what - a table maybe but Im not convinced thats right either. Am I over thinking it or should I add something more? If the latter, what should I add?
This is beautiful! hmm I can't think of anything else you could add. You did such a great job :)
ReplyDeleteI could see some sort of potted house plant with vertical proportions, or even a large glass vase that sits on the floor.
ReplyDeleteStunning! I think it looks fine as is (the chair anchors the art and it looks like it brings the chair to scale now!).
ReplyDeleteAlthough I COULD also see a directoire table there as well. Though I know you already have one in your LR....OK, so I sorta stalk your home decor, don't be scared. =]
Looks fabulous and it improves the scale of the chair - congratulations on getting it done on time. (I wonder if the lack of summer in NY is helping in this respect?)
ReplyDeleteThat looks great!
ReplyDeleteIt does look like something else should be added, but I can't really put my finger on it. A scone on the other wall, perhaps? I'm not sure. Like Elizabeth said, a tall houseplant would probably look nice.
How about a little directoire table next to the chair? Janell
ReplyDeleteOh, I just scrolled up and saw someone else already suggested this!
love it! I think a little table would be amazing there!
ReplyDeleteI say a small area rug. Maybe a round or a square? Also a plant or a floor lamp. Something vertical.
ReplyDeleteThey look great though! Nice choices.
How about pulling the chair out a bit and putting a period floor lamp in the corner. Love the prints.
ReplyDeleteI think you need something at mid-height. A floor lamp behind the chair? The prints look beautiful.
ReplyDeletei think it looks great!!!, but it does need something mid height so there isn't such a jarring difference. I agree that maybe a funky floor lamp or a wrought iron candle stand of some sort would look good. Have I mentioned that I LOVE LOVE LOVE these prints? :-)
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like a standard lamp (that is what I call a floor lamp) is the favoured choice. I love your canvasses - they have worked brilliantly, xv.
ReplyDeleteI was thinking small area rug or tall floor lamp behind the chair as well. Maybe not too tall perhaps one that meets the top of the bottom canvas? I dunno I usually turn to your site for design inspiration. hahaha
ReplyDeleteI'm also seeing some kind of sleek floor lamp; maybe something w/ a clear/crystal-type base. I never post but I love your blog!
ReplyDeletePerfect as is! Clean and chic!
ReplyDeleteOh, I love it! So stylish. I can see a very petite demilune or side table there. You know, just a place to land your favorite mag and beverage. :-)
ReplyDeleteChic and lovely.
Oh, wow!! :) I think it might be nice with something to give a little height, maybe a table or tall vase like the others suggested. But it really looks fab as is too. :)
ReplyDeleteI would add a 2-3 foot plant- mother in laws tongue would be great- maybe in a textured basket. Or even a little garden stool.
ReplyDeleteI love how it looks. How about a silver mirror leaning against the wall where the chair is? I would also add a plant next to the chair to play with some height. What do you think?
ReplyDeleteThe chair doesn't seem near as tiny with the prints up. I lurves it. I also scooted my bum over to the site where you had the prints made and now just have to decide what I want made up!
ReplyDeleteI love this corner of your room Mrs L. The prints look fantastic and they have given the chair a whole new look.
ReplyDeleteI love the colours in here :-)
Found your blog while blog hopping. Your house makes me drool! Absolutely stunning! In my dreams I live in a house like yours. You've done a first class job all the way. Bravo.
ReplyDeleteI love it just the way it is : )
ReplyDeleteIt looks really wonderful. The black in the prints, with the b&w pillow, and dar legs. Nice :-) Umm, what does it need? how about a reading lamp, like a tent-shade floor lamp. Or a plant?
ReplyDeleteI think it looks great!!
ReplyDeleteLet it evolve a little. Live with it and, if you still feel like it needs something, it'll pop out when you find it.
loveeeees. what size are they...thnks for your pillow help..
ReplyDeleteYou are the bomb....I love it! I think it's perfect as is. If I would add anything at all, it may be a larger pillow.
ReplyDeleteLove it! Maybe you could add a lamp behind the chair like this?

Thanks for everyones suggestions. I think a lamp would look very nicer (Mandy's and Emilys suggestion are particularily perfect in my mind) but I have no plans on sitting here to read so its sort of a farce. Its really just for quit sits while dressing.
ReplyDeleteThe Directoire table is another great suggestion. I hadn't even thought of that one. I could move the one I have in the living room up here and use a different one downstairs. Genius.
Im not sure if I mentioned this in my living room posts but I sort of skeeve indoor plants. Not the little potted ones or orchids but anything big and leafy with a huge pot of dirt is not for me. Style be damned, the inside is for mammals only :)
Maybe a tall vase of dried branches/sticks/bamboo behind the chair? Agree with all the comments re: verticality.
ReplyDeleteHang a long skinny pendant?
bigger pillow, some of sort of rug and plant, dont light the idea next to fireplace..
