      Gold silver metallics in I. Wallpaper and finishes and even in upholstery Weaves. Nice work today. I’m sure glad brown flooring is back. I have reddish brown hues. I never changed my floor colors. I embraced them! 😊🥰👍🏻

    Brown makes me feel cozy and sophisticated! I finally purchased a leather sofa in guess what, brown! Just about my entire home is done in earthy tones. Walls are Benjamin Moore “From the Archives “. I have greens, rust, copper and linen color as accents. It’s taken me decades to have the style of my dreams!

    This is why I always look forward to watching new uploads from you Julie! We learn something new everytime! 😍 I used to binge-watch your channel and because of it, my new home is now slowly looking designer (in my opinion 😂) because of everything that I am learning from this channel. Thank God I learned about mixing wood tones here. This made me incorporate mixed woods and intended not to match all tones. 🥰

    I am a brown fan. The limewash statement caught my attention. I have browns in my living room. People entering my home for the first time comment on how they love it. Even men absolutely love it. It surprises me to hear this from men who enjoy fishing and hunting. These men are not into decorating, so it's a real compliment.

    Wow Julie what a fantastic video! I love love love all these designs incorporating browns. I especially like mink/fawn/milk chocolate tones with textural elements, and chocolate browns combined with eggplant/pinot noir/raisin wide wale corduroy or velvet. You said it - sumptious!

Would love to see ideas with a brown reclining sofa. It is a requirement of my husband and we will only have 1 family/living room. And Drew is awesome!!

    I love my chocolate brown linen sofa with my seagrass area rugs and linen walls. These brown/caramel tones make my living room feel grounded and cozy. I'm about to have 2 MCM chairs recovered in a coral print for some oomph. There are also shade of coral in several pieces of art in the space. Love this color combo!

    I’ve always incorporated brown into my home because my personal style leans heavily into Arts & Crafts. I always opt for brown when choosing leather seating because it’s still sophisticated but much easier on the eyes than black leather, and much more versatile paired with other cozy, organic colors. Glad to see that I was on the right track even though at the time I got some side eye by moving away from the white marble and gray everything everywhere trend and choosing coffee brown granite countertops and cream cabinets paired with the original knotty pine paneling when I renovated the kitchen in my 1950s fixer upper in 2015. Too many people seem to be conditioned by the cheap flipper shows on HGTV to reject the natural organic richness and coziness of brown in interiors.

    I purchased a Persian 9x12 area rug for my living room, cream and brown, I thought it was going to be too much but to my surprise it’s a beautiful rug and looks great. Now I have to figure out if my mahogany coffee table and tv stand are going to be too much and if I might have to buy new table and tv stand…😂😂😂

    I have had various brown sofas for 20+ years. It’s always been grounding and cozy to me. I love browns, happy to be past the grey, and the white. Those were never my colors, it will be nice to see brown tones back in the stores for more accessory choices.

    I just changed my cushions cover and throws and few pieces of furniture

    Brown wood or any woo that ages even to a honey color is warm. A color that I would like to add, maybe as a punch, is yellow. Not green-yellow, but yes to butter yellow and some mustard yellows. How to introduce the warm glow of yellow?

    • @Pinnfeathers
      @Pinnfeathers 13 годин тому

      I agree! I have mustard velvet pillows on my dark chocolate brown leather sofa, paired with William Morris tapestry pillows in burgundy, blue, green, and beige. The sofa was reading a bit “flat”without that pop of mustard yellow. It’s a simple way to inject life and energy into a cozy space.

    I paint my furniture a lot and I tried chocolate brown...but it's not for me : I prefer charcoal grey, dark emerald green or kakis...
    My chance is that I have wood floorings , a raw wood panel ( modern 😄) in my living, furniture with a lot of different woods, quite dark, everywhere. I have a sofa wich is between muted pink/terracotta/brown. And I am thinking to buy a cognac leather chair. 😉 So...yes, I kind of like brown, but not everywhere.
    And, yes, the european countryside room is reeeeaaaally lovely 😍!
    Thank you Julie..🙏🙏🙏

    Thank you so much for this video! I am a 65-year-old grandma and I definitely love the dark academia vibe minus the Harry Potter part. Although I love the movies.
    I love to live with my apartment decorated in auto terminal colors. So sofa and loveseat and recliner are a chocolate brown faux look leather. My few furniture pieces are Cherrywood. My draperies are tan. I guess is what you would call it.
    I would love it if you would, please do another video on how I could continue this look of browns and goals and burnt oranges and burnished, reds and sage greens and slate blues and all those kind of colors that go together… How can I carry that into my small apartment bedroom in terms of a comforter/duvet and also into my bathroom that also has Cherrywood Cabinets andgreige walls. Obviously I don’t want every single thing to be a dark brown. A dark brown comforter and a dark brown shower curtain might be a bit much but I really am at loss of how to add things that make the apartment flow but still being based on my dark brown Sofa and case goods I definitely get that putting a white comforter on the bed would look kind of dull. And I guess a solid brown shower curtain would look kind of boring too, but is something with a brown pattern in it the way to go for those two items? I don’t know. I’m not very creative. I dislike auto colors and I love brown.

      Warm colors and cool work beautifully. Think how nice turquoise and brown look. Take a look at the color wheel and incorporate jewel tones with the browns. Julie covers the color wheel. She has a beautiful turquoise console in her living room with that brown sofa she cherishes. It’s looks beautiful together. She likes jewel tones. Good Luck🍀

      Depends on the stain. If the baseboard is already natural wood, I would strip it and stain to my desired hue. If it’s paint-grade MDF that was painted brown, definitely paint another color. White is ok if that’s the consistent trim color you already have in the home. If not, why not try color!?! (Watch my color playlist for more inspiration 😉)
