Ha! We only have one in our master bedroom. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/choosing-a-ceiling-fan#post-2744230 Tue, 06 Jun 2017 09:40:10 +0000 avivoca 2744230@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have two wood tone fans. I love the one in our bedroom but I hate the one in the living room (it came with the house). I am thinking about putting a fan in my girls' room and am leaning toward wood just to match the others. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/choosing-a-ceiling-fan#post-2744229 Tue, 06 Jun 2017 09:39:00 +0000 winter_wonder 2744229@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At our other house we had darker wood floors, so I thought the wood colored fans looked nicer. At this house we have lighter floors and smaller bedrooms. The wall color is white along with the ceiling, so I thought white would look better.</p> <p>There are so many more options for the darker fans though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/choosing-a-ceiling-fan#post-2744226 Tue, 06 Jun 2017 09:29:26 +0000 Littlebit7 2744226@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we like white (and no lights unless you don't have enough light in the room). If I had to buy them again I'd buy remote controls </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/choosing-a-ceiling-fan#post-2744225 Tue, 06 Jun 2017 09:29:22 +0000 Mamaof2 2744225@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Shantuck: @Mrs. Pickle: we have white in the bedrooms and I assumed they were put there to blend as well - wasn't sure if we should follow this rule in the living room too - thanks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/choosing-a-ceiling-fan#post-2744222 Tue, 06 Jun 2017 09:21:15 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 2744222@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Most of the time we choose white to blend in with the ceiling. In our living room we have a brown fan. It hangs from a wooden beam and white would have stuck out more I think. We have ceiling fans in almost every room except the bathrooms and dining room. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/choosing-a-ceiling-fan#post-2744220 Tue, 06 Jun 2017 09:15:44 +0000 Shantuck 2744220@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We went with white fans to blend into the ceilings better. We wanted fans for their function but I usually prefer fanless lighting on ceilings so we just went with something that wouldn't stick out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/choosing-a-ceiling-fan#post-2744200 Tue, 06 Jun 2017 08:55:40 +0000 Mamaof2 2744200@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We need to install 2 ceiling fans - how do you decide what color to pick?</p> <p>Base it on the flooring? Base it on the furniture? Wall color? </p>
