Decorating style/your home

[skcin]

EDIT: Warning! Long boring post ahead, mostly about paint color & furniture. Don't bother to read any further if you don't care.

Man am I bored. Soooo......what would you say your decorating style is in your home?

I guess I would label my house as modern traditional. Maybe a smidge of country here & there. Not contemporary at all. I have a Cape Cod style house built in 1948, it's about 1100 square feet. The bottom half of the house is dark red brick, and the top dormer area has sage green vinyl siding. I have a covered concrete patio off the back of the house, and a detached 2 car garage.

My living room/dining room combo is painted off-white with two walls glazed taupe. Carpet is beige (never again...) and furniture is dark blue. I have hard wood floors throughout the house, but I like the carpet in living areas.

Downstairs (teeny tiny) bath has a very similar color scheme, peel & stick tile on the floor and the original ceramic tiling on the walls. Thank God it's white with barely noticable small brown flecks in it - I've seen some really horrid tile colors. My brother-in-law's in gray & pink. Blech. Oak vanity, off-white marble sink; getting a bit dated.

Home office (actually a bedroom) is sage green & hunter green, seperated by chair rail molding. Built-in oak bookcase built by hubby in this room. Hardwood floor.

Guest bedroom is pale yellow, decorated in a classic 1950's style. I put my grandmother's old bedroom set in there, and one of her crystal block lamps (which I notice are back in again.) Hardwood floor.

Upstairs bath has pale blueish green walls & light gray ceramic tile floors. I love the color (Babbling Brook), but it's a bitch finding accessories & towels & stuff - blue doesn't match, neither does green. Dark gray is best, but last time I was at Penney's & Target, they didn't have any. F*ckers. White toilet & pedestal sink, extra wide shower with swinging glass door.

Master bedroom is a deep cinnamon color, with a dark taupe on the ceiling. Bedroom set is medium color wood, made to look old & distressed even though it's not. Queen bed, 1 tall chest & 1 mirrored dresser. Berber carpet.

Basement is partially finished, so half is laundry/utility room, the other half is our bar/family room. We're going to re-do it this spring, since it was last done in the 60's, I would guess. The tile floor is white & I think it's supposed to look like stones. The walls are classy wood-look paneling, and there's (I swear) a mural on one wall, which is turquiose & pink & cartoonish & depicts some sort of water scene. We spend so much time down there (gas fieplace & big screen TV) that I want to make it more modern & homey.

God, I am so bored.
