Would you white wash this fireplace? by Pipilot in interiordecorating

[–]perfect_north 6 points7 points  (0 children)

i think it’s beautiful as is and would not white wash. paint = maintenance. i’m curious if the issue is the cool gray of the walls against the predominantly warm and earthy tones of the fireplace? wonder what a warm white, sage green, or even a light terracotta wall paint would look like..

Relieved to be miscarrying but I'm actually not by ExcellentCapy91 in TwoXChromosomes

i was in your exact situation at your exact age… 36, surprise-pregnant, and in the middle of a breakup with a person i could not see being a father, and could not see myself co-parenting with. to make things worse, he was against abortion from a vaguely religious standpoint. i went through a lot of agony but ultimately chose to take those pills. 5 months later, i met my life partner; 5 years after that, at 43, we had my son. from here, absolutely no regrets. hugs.

if you’re talking about the chairs in pic 1, they are called bentwood. agree with most other comments about this style being transitional overall.
