Need help choosing carpet!
Comments (5)I raised 3 joeys and 2 cats on a Cavalier Bremworth pure wool carpet and never regretted it for one minute except for one colour choice. The living areas were in a deep brown which I would never recommend - as portpiro said, dark colours show every speck of fluff, dust, pet hair and anything else that comes into the house. The bedroom areas were an Arctic White and were so easy to keep clean - regular vacuuming and a deep clean annually or occasionally spot cleaning of any accidents. I had 40 years of wear from these carpets - probably won't get anything like that these days though. http://www.cavbrem.com.au/tools/products.aspx I think if you choose mid brown/grey colours in a tweed or a self pattern, you will find this does hide any stubborn marks, but with wool, I just didn't have any. I note now this firm has brought out a range of very nice looking carpet tiles. If these are easy to interchange, they could be very useful in bedrooms especially where only a small area of flooring gets wear while under beds and furniture stays pristine. I also found when replacing my carpet recently that nylons and synthetics were not necessarily that much cheaper than wool but although they are more stain proof, they do build up static electricity that will attract dirt and make the carpet much harder to clean. This is one carpet from their Turkestan range that I really liked for durability...See MoreNeed help choosing furniture and placement of it
Comments (4)Hi its Tracey here from Trace of Elegance. I would recommend adding a couple of occasional chairs in a different colour, eg if you have orange accessories add this in then tie it back in with the colour of the sofa with cushion or throw. Also a coffee table would look great. Don't go solid to the floor as you would not want to hide the great rug you have on display. I would also move lamp near sofa....See Moreneed help choosing a wall colour
Comments (4)Hi Max You will be pleased to hear that terracotta is making a comeback! It always works well with warm whites, like Resene Quarter Spanish White. Consider installing one feature wall in the room in recycled slatted timber that has a similar tone to the floors, in order to tie the space together, and bring a more modern feel. A great palette inspiration for you would be from our colour concept collection "Modern Western" https://www.bodoboards.com.au/collections/paint-concept/products/modern-western-paint-concept Good Luck!...See MoreNeeding help choosing a dog friendly couch, leather, vinyl or fabric?
Comments (33)I had a 2nd hand lovely resort style lounge (cane with fabric) which quickly became pulled and tatty after my 2 small dogs had been using it. The leather lounge & two large leather recliners I have show no damage (regardless of long or clipped nails) and both pets love these. Having a blanket the dogs know is theirs is a great idea especially with leather, as the initial cold feeling of leather means both dogs only want to be on the blanket....See MoreSandra Sherpa
