Keep the mauve wall! Once you put the shelves back will look amazing and will provide some contrast

I love the pink (mauve) wall! I would not repaint white but if you must maybe consider a white that has a mauve hue to it - there are 100's of shades of white.

@TheCarlaProject 2 жыл бұрын

ohhh that might be a good medium yes!!

@kim_chasgrits1527 2 жыл бұрын

If you want to repaint the wall, take a piece of leftover flooring and have the paint person do a color match to the off-white from the floor print. That way the colors in the room won't fight with one another....if that's sort of the vibe you're struggling with and want to make the change.

I'm actually a fan of the wall...And you know what? At least you tried something new and out of your comfort zone with DIYs! That's so fun, even if sometimes it's a fail lol! Now it's a thing you have experience in!

@susannovak8263 2 жыл бұрын

OK - now that I’ve actually watched the video I can comment on the wall color. I really like it with the floor tiles. I think the solid color wall might be throwing you off a little bit. You might feel differently about it after you put your white pantry back in. I vote for keeping the mauve wall - it’s pretty! And painting the base trim was a great idea. Can’t wait for part two! (See, I told you you could do it). 😊

@susie5101 2 жыл бұрын

I painted my linoleum bathroom floor and it got dirty quickly. I then repainted it with porch paint and I love it! It's been 6 years and it still looks great.

@CobraDove1111 4 ай бұрын

I can tell you why. Because your inspiration photo is a warm pink and mauve has purple undertone in it so that is a cool pink that's why it's coming off as Pepto-Bismol. I still think it looks good though, just pull some cooler pink elements over into the other side of the room to tie it in maybe bring some molds in to a rug with some creams and it will look amazing

I have lived in my house for 10 years and just painted my brown cabinets a lovely sea glass blue/green color. I felt your pain with the Home Depot trip, it is so overwhelming!!!! I just kept telling myself, "I can do this, I can do this." Painting is scary. It was nice to watch you work too! I love the floors!!!

@TheCarlaProject 2 жыл бұрын

it is very overwhelming in there!! yep i was doing the same affirmation lol

The cafe curtains are adorable, and the mauve wall will be fine once you get the shelf back in the kitchen. The floor: LOVE IT.

@jeanmariemclain2836 2 жыл бұрын

I like one comment that said to take your extra floor tile to Home Depot and find a lighter version of the terra cotta color for the wall. Do not use glossy paint. Use eggshell or more matte. Use lighter color, not darker. Your mauve isn’t quite right and you know it. It’s too pink. Trust yourself on this. Don’t go back to white. That would be going backwards. Use a color that pairs better with your gorgeous new floor. Also, I think your curtain is upside down. The 3-inch hem goes on the bottom to help weight it. The 1-inch hem goes on the top. Project looks great. Love your floor.

Perfect advice!!! Love it

@DesireeDAlessandro 2 жыл бұрын

I like the mauve wall, I wish it was actually a touch darker but it's fine. That color is really popular retro color that goes well with the vintage style oven! I also like that it provides contrast with the white baseboards. Plus the shelf is going to block a lot any way... I'd skip the labor of repainting it.

@jen.... 2 жыл бұрын

Love the floor and curtains. The wall colour is also nice, but the tone is a bit off when compared to the floor. I'd probably re-paint the wall to match the (off?) white elements in the floor tiles, but I am very basic 😄 I would test what the wall/floor combo looks like with your shelving unit back in the room before repainting - it might look okay.

@michelleschiralli9189 2 жыл бұрын

This is what I was going to suggest as well!

@TheCarlaProject 2 жыл бұрын

agree completely!! the tones do not match each other...

@aptlifeview4123 2 жыл бұрын

I agree with this. The floor is the spotlight/true accent, so the walls can stay white or a white with a mauve hue (or a hue that best compliments). Also, I love warm (vs cool toned) rooms, but since it's the kitchen a lighter wall may help bounce light better. After having gray cabinets for 2 years i appreciate my "boring" white ones that bounce, instead of absorb, light.

@lemontree9019 2 жыл бұрын

The pink wall is beautiful... what you actually wanted is to be "flat finish" the one you have is very shiny. I love the tiles. I would stay with it as it is and I would decide after a week if I don't like the color or not.

@jenem9618 2 жыл бұрын

I agree about the shine! But she doesn't want flat finish in a kitchen. It'll be a nightmare to clean off the grease and grime. Eggshell is a compromise.

I'm really jealous, we actually always have walls here that are simply plastered and then a rough, not smooth wall; it's a pain to paint! The color in the kitchen is great... anything is better than white walls. The floor is phenomenal! I have small black floor tiles in the kitchen which are a nightmare. Grease and water, dog hair, cat hair leave marks everywhere. Now there's a washable carpet. I love your apartment, just very charming, cozy and feminine.

@parcheesy33 2 жыл бұрын

One thing that would make a big difference is it looks like your grout may be white and just stained on the counters - if you use toilet gel w bleach and a grout brush you can get them white again and it makes it visually so much cleaner because it reduces contrast between black and white. Also - would consider if you can Craigslist a nice closed storage option. The shelves bring a lot of visual clutter and something like the KEA Kolbjorn could make it all look less busy and more tidy.

Really nice job on the floor , looks great! I would go with a shade of white that matches the design in the tile. Can’t wait for the next video!

@lynneeie5226 2 жыл бұрын

It is hard to judge from a video as colors always look different in real life and various light throughout the day. I say... if the wall does not make your heart sing, then repaint it. But, that said... I think that tile was a great choice and it works really well with the wood of the cabinetry! And too, I love your old stove! 🥰

Keep the Mauve wall. When you put the wall unit back you will see that you made the right choice. The curtains look great.
