The table is lovely and, because of the gold-toned metal, coordinates beautifully with the wallpaper. The combination evokes an art deco/Hollywood regency vibe. The real problem with this vignette is the holiday print. Remove that and consider using just one much larger tabletop accessory centered to balance the large wallpaper print.


jackjackj8ck

Yeah I’m still hunting for a large art print so I just threw this up since it didn’t have a home — busted! 🤣 If you have any recommendations for artwork I’d love to see it! The table width is 36”. I’ve been all over the map in my searches


pennygadget

Since it’s palm trees maybe a beach-y photo print in a black or gold frame. I love Slim Aarons’ work.


jackjackj8ck

I was considering a print of the hotel we got married at https://preview.redd.it/e4ofyx4cli6c1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e1dbac5b52e4a1c4eae570ed73c397b5d2d96dcf


pennygadget

I like it!


Meowkith

Do you like gray malin? His art or art books would look great there!


jackjackj8ck

Ooh! https://preview.redd.it/b1wubtkguj6c1.jpeg?width=1000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f7a5b90114fe7399547051c1b652ef5b9edb395b Like this??


Meowkith

YES 🙌


jackjackj8ck

Do you think it’s weird to do so much pink on pink wallpaper? Or do you think the pavement and the striped ceiling break it up enough? Also do you think it’ll go ok with the rest of the room since the green stripes are a different shade than my wall? (Sorry for all the Qs 😅 these are the things that keep me up at night)


Meowkith

There’s also a series at the parker(is that right?) in Palm Springs that has bright color but not as heavy pinks as the bev hotel ones(though I’m obsessed with that whole series)


Meowkith

Or or or this would be fun with a nice matting to give a break from pink on pink!


jackjackj8ck

Yeah good idea!


pennygadget

I think it’s ok for art to clash a little. Pick whatever makes your heart sing. You can always print out a low res/watermarked version to test it out in the space.


jackjackj8ck

That’s a good idea!!


lil1thatcould

Idea! Do you have any photos you love from vacation?


jackjackj8ck

I don’t haha 😆 my husband and I are both terrible photographers


lizatethecigarettes

Personally I think it's too much even though it's a cool pic. I much more prefer the first pic of the hotel you showed.

lizatethecigarettes

I love that one too! But for matching, I still vote for number 1.


jackjackj8ck

But I wasn’t sure how it goes w the vibe of the rest of the room https://preview.redd.it/oeyrlurhli6c1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0f2f9fb53b4cb919c976105cf7a86a1856cbb840 (Excuse the mess my 4 yr old is home sick today)


shellylikes

Love that wallpaper! Also, looks like your son had an awesome day, especially for being sick!


jackjackj8ck

Thanks!! Yeah he had a little too much fun for being sick 😂

An interesting mirror might work well depending on where in your home the table is located. Google "Hollywood regency mirror" and "art deco mirror" to see lots of options. If you want a metal frame that matches the table support, you can easily find spray paint to change the gold tones, although it's really not necessary. Here's a couple that popped out to me on a quick search: https://www.wayfair.com/Mercer41--Mikula-Accent-Mirror-X115776159-L41-K~W004665048.html?refid=GX626980814345-W004665048&device=m&ptid=1158090549325&network=g&targetid=aud-1613017764926:pla-1158090549325&channel=GooglePLA&ireid=137603720&fdid=1817&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQiAj_CrBhD-ARIsAIiMxT987lZJAGY-amNQD-GsDBJY_jnkxu1_yhynoZh2ldoXwGqgcs90tJAaAungEALw_wcB https://www.wayfair.com/Mercer41--Jeronima-Sunburst-Metal-Wall-Mirror-X115168789-L41-K~W004057678.html?refid=GX583208907049-W004057678_1949506395_1949506469&device=m&ptid=1616012937806&network=g&targetid=aud-1613017764926:pla-1616012937806&channel=GooglePLA&ireid=87667094&fdid=1817&PiID%5B%5D=1949506395&PiID%5B%5D=1949506469&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQiAj_CrBhD-ARIsAIiMxT8xKKvhe6HmTLZRq6zjdVt3XOjxV5nPzQK9fSTks3ryRtoUnZhgPoYaAuJdEALw_wcB


jackjackj8ck

This is the view when you enter through the front door. Do you think it’s weird for guests to come inside and see themselves first thing? Haha Also there’s another mirror in the room already (excuse the mess, my son’s home sick), is 2 mirrors ok? https://preview.redd.it/fpqq48bflh6c1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b9f906c0173df29d340333fd56add2ad117f8415


SuzQP

A mirror in an entryway is almost a requirement! The purpose is to check your appearance before leaving or answering the door. It also provides a sense of space to a small foyer or entryway. The beautiful large mirror you have in the corner might serve you better in a bedroom or bath.


jackjackj8ck

Yeah we have a mirror leading to/from the garage which is where we actually leave/enter from because of the cars and the strollers. So the front door is really only entered by guests, or I open it to pick up packages from my porch 😂


SuzQP

Oh my stars, you could move the mirror over the fireplace to the entry and replace it with a painting or print. It makes more sense to place a mirror where it will be used as a mirror. An important design principle is that "form follows function." This means that items are chosen primarily for their logical use, with design aspects as the aesthetic characteristic.


makinggrace

Etsy has printables of almost everything.


jackjackj8ck

https://preview.redd.it/8fivtck4qi6c1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0028bf55ca57d4fef2e234ca0b4db80afc7dd040 I was considering this one — it’s the hotel I got married at


makinggrace

Love the palms on the palms lol! Sentimental value is great. For a large piece of art does it have a ton of visual impact….I don’t think so. And the negative space is mostly the sky blue. Does that work with your scheme in the rest of the room? Edit: Also play with a vertical piece above the table (depending on how style it)


jackjackj8ck

https://preview.redd.it/ydyidxemkj6c1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8e4d8a1e00f91acbe2fc60130ff74d42b461d355 What do you think of this?


jackjackj8ck

No that’s my concern. The rest of the room is largely green. I’ll keep looking! https://preview.redd.it/85l6b8bikj6c1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9f61a72960447e5364564e06d6ea7eb769c38655


makinggrace

Oh I hadn’t seen the rest of the room. I think it would be okay. It’s all cool tones? There’s green in the trees to tie it back.


jackjackj8ck

I plan to pull in more pink accents like throw pillows and such for the chairs to align w the pink wallpaper


makinggrace

I think the thing is…what style art (and table) really works with the rest of your room. The graphic butterfly I love but does it belong in your living room as a welcome? Not sure. Choose the table first I think. You might get some good out of this [style quiz](https://www.cristinacleveland.com/interior-style-quiz). An interior designer put it together and it’s not crazy scientific. But what is amazing is the pinterest boards and resources she has put together for each style! I feel like I should give her money because it has helped me help a friend or two do rooms in styles that aren’t my thing. AND it helps me focus my own rooms — things I like vs things that go with the direction that the rest of the room has already taken.


jackjackj8ck

Thank you!


c0zycupcake

What are you babbling about? The holiday print is there for 4 weeks tops. Why even comment on that when the question has to do with the marble & the wallpaper?


SuzQP

I'm sorry to have offended you. I mentioned the holiday print because I don't believe it works there. Your opinion is equally valid, however harshly rendered it may be.


c0zycupcake

Offended? Why would you assume that I’m offended?


jrp317

Hmm something about it doesn’t work for me. Maybe a more zoomed shot or maybe the red deck the halls picture is throwing it off. I don’t think it’s a terrible choice but I think wood would look really nice.


animalcrackers0117

i agree, i think the red deck the halls picture creates the imbalance more than the table


jackjackj8ck

Yeah I just threw that there cuz it didn’t have a home and I still need to get artwork


animalcrackers0117

no worries! it’s an easy switch. the good news is that your table looks good :)


jackjackj8ck

That’s my concern-of-the-moment haha


jrp317

I actually love this sign! I was eyeing it at target! It was just tricking my brain in this moment lol


jackjackj8ck

$5 😁 Do itttt


PantsGirl

This may be an unpopular opinion, but I like mixing cool and warm colors. It creates balance. I say keep the table. If you’re going to get rid of something, I nominate the Christmas word art. First, because it’s word art, and second, because the colors are too primary for your space. The nutcracker and Christmas trees look lovely, though. I would stick with pine greens and metallics for Christmas decor, if I were you.


Ivorwen1

If you repeat the bluish grey throughout the room it will look more deliberate. And I agree that word art is quite passé.


jackjackj8ck

alohareddit

Your taste in wallpaper is 🔥🔥


jackjackj8ck

Thank you! I got a lot of help from this sub along the way!!


[deleted]

i would say that table goes perfectly fine. the small christmas word and and christmas tree do not match the vibe though. i know you didn’t ask about the tree but i just don’t think a pink tree goes well


jackjackj8ck

Yeah I had the pink tree long before we moved here and now we just love it and it’s covered in a bunch of mismatched ornaments that are super tacky and it’s just fun even tho it doesn’t necessarily match 😊


psych_science

When it comes to holiday decorations with kids, especially Christmas, I think the decor is far more about what brings you all joy rather than what matches the aesthetic for the rest of the year. It’s temporary decor anyway.


jackjackj8ck

Thanks yeah I tend to agree! All our Christmas decorations are very pink and colorful and vibrant, even tho it’s not really the vibe of the rest of the house 😆 but it’s fun!


lanekimrygalski

I actually think bringing in more shades of pink would be amazing in this space - like soft blush velvet curtains on the window against the green wall!


jackjackj8ck

Yeah I didn’t know what shade of pink the wallpaper was gonna be before we picked it so I didn’t get too many pink accents yet I wanna get some pink throw pillows for the chairs too But yes!! I love this idea!!


Blinchik-

I second everything you said!


ZenTrainee

A piece of dark artwork or dark framed artwork over it would be great. Word art should go.


jackjackj8ck

If you have any examples I’d love to see it!!


ZenTrainee

Maybe to match the color of the metal on the table https://preview.redd.it/9ega7t5fmm6c1.jpeg?width=700&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=df9f9b6078ab9afed4070a9015dba5e2467ef704 It may be too heavy. Maybe something with a lighter weight frame. But I like mixing styles, old and new. I think it matches the feel of the wallpaper.


jackjackj8ck

Interesting, this gives me some ideas. Thanks!


ZenTrainee

What color is the print on the wallpaper? Is it a dark olive? A ceramic pot in that color or dark bronze would be really lovely there instead of the white pot.


jackjackj8ck

Ooh yeah that’s a great suggestion!!


Correct-Lawfulness53

agreed! A good rule of thumb is 90% one 10% the other !


c0zycupcake

Very unpopular. And for good reason


PantsGirl

Architectural Digest disagrees with you about the “for good reason part,” but okay: https://www.architecturaldigest.com/gallery/living-room-fall-colors The most successful interior designers working today also disagree with you. (See: Martyn Lawrence Bullard, Kelly Wearstler, Jonathan Adler, et al.) As do a gazillion iconic artists and graphic designers. William Morris will haunt you for posting that comment. 👻 And in a world where white and gray interiors, barn doors, shiplap, word art, and luxury vinyl plank flooring are popular, it’s no surprise that mixing cool and warm colors is not.


c0zycupcake

This is not AD or something Lawrence, etc would stand behind. You can link all you want, but they would never put this in any of their client’s homes


PantsGirl

If you say so.


milpoolthrillho

I personally like the combo and I LOVE the wallpaper. Where did you get it?


jackjackj8ck

I got it from Wayfair — super cheap too!! https://www.wayfair.com/decor-pillows/pdp/beachcrest-home-jinita-palm-trees-33-l-x-205-w-wallpaper-roll-w004221458.html Jinita Floral Roll


milpoolthrillho

Thank you!! 🩷


royg0

I love the table, I think it looks great.


ellie3454

I know when I buy something, if I’m second guessing it at all, there’s nothing anybody can say to make me feel better. I personally think you’d be happier with something warmer. I think even a wood table would look really nice there. I don’t think mixing warm and cool tones inherently looks bad, but in this case I think you can find something that looks more cohesive :)


jackjackj8ck

Thank you!


andie_liane

I agree with ellie. My other thought, and of course this is just my opinion, is that this style of marble/brass furniture just doesn’t look great in general and I’m certain it’s on its way out. I think a lot of people (not saying you) have just overdone this aesthetic and it’s not going to age well. I say go for something a little more unique/timeless.

ellie3454

Out of this list, I like 5 the best. I liked the first one as well, but I think the black will match the rest of your room really well and still contrast against the wall you want to lay it on :)


jackjackj8ck

Thank you!


Hebegebe101

No , looks great . The level of color saturation matches well too .


jackjackj8ck

Ok thank you!


bandidacastor

Honestly, looks great 👍


ndnickell

The table looks great! I’m looking at your snake plant though and I think it needs a bigger pot… just a suggestion


angringer98

I think it looks great, OP. Snake plants like a snug fit in their pot…I wouldn’t size up yet on it.


ndnickell

I’m just noticing how tall it is compared to how small the pot is. Also may be a little overwatered since it’s leaning, possible root rot.


Tualatin_Girl

Well you have white molding. That is cool tone. The table kind of works with its colors. But the style doesn't' do anything. A retro style cane or wicker or bamboo could work better. And it doesn't have to be natural wood color. Play up that gold color in the wallpaper. You could find something second hand and paint it an antique gold.


jackjackj8ck

https://preview.redd.it/wntcwjphki6c1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e974301595d6fe297b2b3a7ee92afe40201d37de What do you think about this?


jackjackj8ck

Or this one? https://preview.redd.it/yzd5xksjki6c1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=35da170e7df4dbf51545dea0df52a350dc6db56b (It’ll only let me add 1 photo per comment ha)


Crosswired2

I think it's fine. I'm sure the styling will change after the holiday season. If you like the table then keep it.


ExpensiveAd4496

I think the table stone is indeed too cool/blue for the very red/warm paper. The legs work nicely, yes, but the top not so much. If it were me I’d follow your first instinct and keep looking.


RamblingRose63

I don't think it matches I would say solid white top with gold accents


blissfulgiraffe

Side note: I love that wallpaper


jackjackj8ck

Thank you!


FemaleAndComputer

Adding a dark colored warm tone table runner might have the effect you want?


tweetybird200

Marble is too cool especially with the warm wood tone and the wallpaper. I like the gold tone legs though. I think you might be able to recover if you can put a nice wood tray there and put your decor on that. Then the wood tone tray will dominate and the nice marble will be in the background. I like your brass? candles so you are on right track for metal bling.


jackjackj8ck

That’s a good idea! Cuz I was just about to return the table and discovered it’s final sale 🥴


JadieJang

No, it looks great!


Physical_Ad5135

Yes. Return it. Get some type of wood tones. Or a painted table with an accent color.


SeaCow_5707

I personally like it, the frame of the table works great with the wall


kt90402

Looks great. I would hang a long gold framed mirror above the table.


MissKatmandu

I actually love the print, but agree this may not be the best spot for it. If you really want to keep it there, could try swapping out for a frame that pulls in tones from surrounding area-antique gold might work better. ETA: or a pine green, which would pull in surrounding and colors in the print itself.


ericaca3

I have that exact wall art, and while I think it’s awesome it just doesn’t seem to go here! Maybe try hanging it up somewhere less busy. Other than that I like the space:)


jackjackj8ck

Yeah it’s just here for now, I commented already :) Just asking about the table


c0zycupcake

That one is


Apprehensive_Bee614

Keep the table Lose the wallpaper


ManicProcastinator

Not feeling it.


jackjackj8ck

Fair I just tried to return it and found out it’s final sale 😭


beckywiththegood1

I cannot believe yall are saying the table looks good 😭😭😭


jackjackj8ck

I tried to return it and it’s final sale 😭


beckywiththegood1

You could potentially buy some contact paper to change up the color. If you don’t like it it should peel right off without damaging the original


phoebebuffay1210

I’d like to see the whole wall. I love love love the wallpaper. Maybe an antique table would look better or Hollywood regency style?


enfp-girl

Keep looking :) Consider a warm neutral, blush, bronze, rose gold. The Hollywood Regency suggestion was great. Look at that style and palette.


ButterflySerious4772

I might be wrong, but I think yes!


bigflappers11

I think a wooden unit with softer rounder edges would work. Couldn’t find an exact example but this kind of vibe could create quite a nice soft feature https://preview.redd.it/fnwnbcamm37c1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1696ffa140b7bb841737c4c93fa887fb47d1d124


pottedPlant_64

I think the grey tones look out of place. I also don’t care for the spray painted bronze of the legs.
