My three year old was on the sofa with me yesterday and commented that everything in our house is some variation of brown, cream, and black. Ha!

We have chocolate satin blackout curtains downstairs. I have a neutral sueded light beige set of curtains in the front of the house my bedroom. DD has white cotton shears in her room. DS is the only one to have any color at all. His walls are a bee's wax yellow, with some World Market bohemian paisley tie on curtains in each window.

The chocolate adds a warmth to the downstairs. I like a soothing palate, and very much enjoy the warmth. We have couple of very large mirrors and mahogany floors and window frames. It's the artwork that adds color, for what it's worth. I'm much more into texture, honestly. Leather sofas, oak table,...it's a clean, expansive look.

I've often thought about switching the curtains out, winter and summer. But, I never do.

There's something to be said for consistency. Having the curtains work with the wall paint and general decor seem to pull the space together. I can see using the curtains for that pop of color everyone seems to want, but I really do like the peaceful feel of what we've managed.
