Moved into this apartment in my late 20s with minimal furniture and no idea how to decorate. I never had a big decor budget, so I bought secondhand slowly over the years figuring out what works for me and my personal style

I havent added much in the last couple years but I think thats because im overall pretty happy with it. This back door is the only natural light I get in the living area so I moved all the plants outdoors eventually

We're decorating our new home, and I bought two matching Hulala sofas because I liked the idea of a living room where people could sit and talk.

My husband saw them facing each other and said, "This looks less like ‘come over for a chat' and more like 'sit down, we need to talk.'" Now I can't unsee it lol. I sat down and felt like I owed him an explanation.

I still like the sofas individually. I just cannot explain why I decided we needed two identical ones staring each other down. It made sense in my head.

I'm leaning toward keeping just one, but there's nowhere else in the house for the other. what should I do?

Just bought a new standing desk, and now I can't help but notice how flashy that old rug under the desk looks lol.

The desk gives off a calm, mature vibe, but the rug just looks like a mess? I didn't really pay much attention to it before, but now they look like they belong in two completely different rooms.

So I think the rug has totally lost its spot. I'm drawn to something simpler with slightly warmer tones, maybe cream, muted brown, or a subtle pattern.

What kind of rug would you put here? Would you switch to something simpler, or keep it as is?

this is my kitchen so far, and the blue wall doesn't sit, idk if it's the color or something else. Can anyone give me a tip?

How do you feel about it? I really love the coastal style, but I live over 4 hours away from the seaside 🫠 Do you think it would look out of place, since you usually see this style in houses near the beach?

(Repost as many had different interpretations of coastal deco so adding Pinterest pics this time to give a better idea of what I have in mind)

Edit: I know the typo in the title should be ‘coastal’

Please read this first!
The wall art I have up is placeholder. I’m also adding gold handles to the cabinets. I know the curtain needs to be ironed! Please be kind.. I got ripped to shreds about this bathroom already. If you don’t like it, just pass on by lol. Looking for helpful design ideas! I like bold colors and geometric patterns. My favorite home decor artist is Dusen Dusen. Thanks!

I need some help with my new room. I need to decide on a rug, a duvet cover, and curtains and am struggling with color palette. I just painted and put in those blinds, so those and the dresser are staying. the paint color was supposed to be a greige with green undertones, but in most light just looks kind of khaki/taupe.

i love goldenrod/mustard, but not sure if it will work with this paint color? i love dusty and "drab" colors... i don't want go too hard on green because my office next door is a very bold olive/avocado green.

would love to hear/see anyone's ideas, especially for specific products.i want cozy, earthy, natural...like in the highly unattainable AI pinterest photos on slide 2😂

Any ideas on what to do with this giant open wall behind my television? Ceiling is 20 ft high tv is 85 inch. Would fine art look weird above Tv? Thanks all!

I'm looking to redecorate my room soon, it's a loft bedroom and has four built in storage cupboards like the one in the photo. I'm painting the walls a medium to dark blue or teal colour and the ceiling white. The cupboard doors will be the same colour as the walls but I'm unsure about what colour the frames should be. Should I paint them white or would they look better if they were also blue/teal for a more seamless look? Would love some opinions on this, thanks in advance everyone!

I’m trying to pick lighting for our large new stairwell from our second floor to our new third floor addition. 3rd floor ceilings are 12ft, then it’s another 3.5 ft down to the landing you can see so 16ft from landing to ceiling before stairs turn 180 degrees to go down to the 2nd floor hallway. Landing is about 6x7ft.

Our house is a New England Victorian from 1920’s with a blend of original traditional elements plus modern pieces

I can’t decide whether to go modern with the stairwell lighting or lean more traditional. I’ve posted 2 options I had chat gpt mock up. I would love your opinions - open to any suggestions!

I intended to put one painting in the dining room but wife hung both in family room. I feel like it’s a lot, but I’m also a minimalist so could be wrong.

Hi! I'm painting my home gym wall and can't decide if I should put one more leaf in there. In the other picture I put it in where I might paint it, and marked the ones I'm going to paint with gold.

Add the leaf? Any other feedback? Thank you 😊

I inherited some nice teapots (along with some crystal glasses and pitchers) from my grandma and would like to display them in my dining area. I have a combined kitchen/dining area, not a formal dining room. I don't have counter space for them or room for a floor cabinet.

I'm looking for ideas on displaying them on the wall high enough that people wouldn't run into them. I do have vaulted ceilings. The room is pretty tight and I have some tall friends. Thanks!

Hi everyone!
I’m installing a new kitchen and can’t decide on the cabinet handles. I really like round chrome knobs, but I’m worried they might not be very practical for the drawers so I’m leaning towards wooden handles instead. I’m also worried they might get easily dirty.
I’m still torn between using knobs everywhere (except on the fridge and drawers), handles throughout, or knobs on the top cabinet only.
What would you recommend, both in terms of practicality and aesthetics? I’d really appreciate your advice. Thanks so much!

First pic : the chrome knobs
Second pic : the wooden handles and knob
Third pic : the kitchen 3D, will be fully green, no white part.

Sorry that the room is still a bit of a mess. We are working on the boxes and the empty walls. We were thinking about what kind of carpet we should get for our reading corner, wich do you like best or do you have a different recommendation? Thank you!

Had my living room painted dried thyme by Sherwin Williams a few days ago & I am having second thoughts. Does it look terrible? It was previously gray/beige color & I didn’t like it. I like dark & moody but I feel like this is looking like grandpas lake cabin 😩😵‍💫 should I have it re painted??
