@terrib962 That is rude. First of all, revere pewter was the go to color 8 years ago and my designer chose it. It was great for the style of my house at that time and as I said, I would like to update to current trends. 2nd of all, not everyone can afford to rip out floors. I said I made a mistake on the floor choice so no need to berate me. 3rd of all, I CHOOSE that floor type (which is vinyl plank by the way) for my lifestyle which is animal rescue and foster. Expensive floors would be ripped up in days! So mind your manners and think twice next time! You are the reason I generally don't interact on the internet.

Ignore @terrib962, never has anything nice to say! How sad to be so unhappy.

I'm in the early stages of remodeling an apartment in a continuing care retirement community. The management allows great leeway, including moving walls. All of the above "trends" are guiding me, as they have since the 70s when I first set up housekeeping. I've always opted for warm colors, textures, plenty of personal expression, and practical features. One difference in the new place: all walkways and doorways will measure 36" wide, since I hope to stay there if ever I need a wheelchair.
