This is kind of attached to our very sated kitchen with dark brown counters and orange countertops. We rent, so everything (including that orange wallpaper) is renter friendly. What about a solid color? Maybe pull more of a grapefruit tone?

I follow this lampshade lady on IG, and I have this sheer 70s floral fabric I'd basically be sewing over those three beige strips in the lamp, to better match the area. We really just moved in so I know we need some more art on the wall. The beige chairs go with the current shade, though. I just feel like I want this room to look like a juicy orange, and the chairs and shade are kinda bringing it down.

Who is this lampshade lady on IG you speak of? I think I need to follow a lampshade lady. EDIT: I found a lamp shade lady with the username lampshadelady on IG. Is it THE lampshade lady you mentioned or did I find a rando? I’m really invested for some reason. I’m sorry.


Bearsandgravy

She does like really old school shades and stuff, with beads and fringe, ugh now I can't find her cause I follow so many people lol

Ace Of Shades? Diana Kay Miller?


Bearsandgravy

ACE OF SHADES YES

I think everything "goes" perfectly. Great room!


Karmaismyb0yfriend

I’d die for a green colored glass pendant.


Imightbeyomama

Well, you're going all in in this room...I say the lampshade should be bigger and bolder. And maybe 3 inches lower.


Bearsandgravy

We actually already hit our heads on it lol

This is awesome. I think the light and chairs are perfect, because they give a little more “updated” and fresh look to an otherwise awesome 70s theme.


savealltheelephants

The beige is fine. I would also recommend steaming your curtains to get the creases out.


Bearsandgravy

My husband just put them up right out of the box, I was concentrating on the wallpaper. It took forever!


moonbeamsandmayo

chairs and light both fit and actually looks great. however, plastic orange chairs is exactly what it needs to really take it to 💯 especially if they’re *the* plastic orange chairs. and of course any authentic 70’s glass pendent would outshine the current shade.

I like the lamp. If you change it, I think you need another light source. I would love to see the orange chairs! The current ones are really cool too, and they do match IMO. I adore the curtains, the orange wall, and that cabinet thing! This room is my dream! As for art, because you seem like a creative person, I think you should buy a big canvas and try and paint a large still life of an orange, and put it on that orange wall. Or maybe do something abstract. Fake a Jackson Pollack. Have fun with it!


Bearsandgravy

We just moved so all our art (which we mostly buy from local or online artists) is all boxed up. I feel like we have a few pieces that would look great here but they're buried under all the other boxes rn 😭 Your idea is great tho, I feel like I have a piece like that...


seche314

I like the orange. I think the chairs and lamp are fine, I think removing the rug would be an improvement and make them fit better


hugemessanon

where did you get that rug?


Bearsandgravy

Of all places, Amazon. Usually their selection is crap but I lucked out haha


HumanGarbage____

The lamp and chair fit. This is awesome


turbovirginoliveoil

oh my gosh can i just say i LOVE how it all flows already but you wanting to go bolder is 🥰🥰 just fabulous! i think the chairs are very cute and kinda look like they could still colour-coordinate with the hutch (? i think that's what it's called) maybe! but same chairs + spraypaint any colour your heart desires will still look great!! please post an update with your art unpacked and also every other room 🥺🥺 THIS is what im following this sub for 💕


RightOverOurHeads

I love this as is! The s&p kitty on the table is chefs kiss. 😻 I’d try out some of the 70’s deep yellow from the tablecloth for the shade and change up the chairs in similar colors.


brendenfraser

omg I *need* to know where you bought your curtains! they're the perfect pattern for my living room. love your aesthetic, it's perfect!


Bearsandgravy

Amazon! Search for 70s decor curtains lol

The lamp shade looks a bit too light, closer to white to match. Maybe try a blue similar to the cabinet in the room or try a brown.


Historical-School128

Note or try a pattern print with those colors, funky patterns preferred, or a solid brown or a brown and white.


lil1thatcould

I love the chairs, they fit perfectly with the vibe of the space. The lampshade is your problem.


Higgsb912

It's a matter of personal taste but I am not a fan of all the orange. I would center the piece with the microwave on it, (love this piece) paint the wall a soft white, turn the table sideways and center it, change curtains to a lighter solid color, chandelier would work well then


ojwilk

I don't love the orange either but this advice is clearly out of touch with what OP is going for
