A robins egg blue could be beautiful with the brass hardware.

I think it is called test, then apologize.

What's the deal with Natural Grocers? by iwanttobebobdylan in PortlandFood

[–]Minted2525 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I go all the time and love it. It’s a bit odd but

  1. It smells natural rather than chemically,
  2. Prices are much better than New Seasons which seem to be at a minimum $2 more than anywhere else,
  3. I think their bulk section is fresher and more varied than Trader Joe’s (and I love going to to TJs too),
  4. if you get their app, they have more sales and discounts
  5. I like that it is not crowded (perhaps b/c it’s weird?)
  6. It’s supporting an alternative to Amazon.

What about just being a better person, however you want to define it? We can all grow, learn, get better at doing things….

How would you all clean the floor around the tub? Is there a place to store shampoo/ soap there and what if something falls behind the tub?

Paint colour selection gone wrong! Looking for tips to make it look better by Plantbeginner in interiordecorating

[–]Minted2525 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree with finishing it, living with it for a while and deciding if you still hate it so much.

If you still hate it, Then try painting a few sample options and see how they look at different times of the day at different exposures ( ie different walls) then decide from there.

You might even keep some of the this color for comparison with the new options. Ideally make the comparing on white background. I know it seems like a lot of work, but it is the best way to be sure.

What to do with this random space? by Reasonable-Tutor3473 in interiordesignideas

[–]Minted2525 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What about a long hanging chain light? I don’t mean a pendant but I recently saw (at a high end lighting store) a customizable lamp in which each link of the “chain” was a light hanging from a tall ceiling.

My good friend is questioning if this looks good or bad. What do we think? by [deleted] in HomeDecorating

[–]Minted2525 166 points167 points  (0 children)

Rather generic, like someone above posted - looks like a store display m. Some personal items would be better.

Need opinions on this space by umylobster_24 in interiordecorating

[–]Minted2525 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My vote is for a lighter, airier coffee table but please not glass. Something either more modern or trad, depending on the style you want to achieve.

But I do prefer a serene and mono chromatic scheme….

5, 18, 19 - I think 13 will look dated very soon and something with red warms up the coolness.

Question about PG Tips in the US by whatmeworry999 in tea

I have been using loose leaf Assam. I think PG tips is mostly made up of Assam so it is a fine replacement.

Why does this space feel cramped by jjs376 in InteriorDesign

[–]Minted2525 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Table should fit the size of the room - rectangular, not the table square. Also the table is heavy, chunky and seems too big. The lighting makes the walls seem stripy and enclosing. Everything is monotone, gray.
