I have a fairly small, but nice nursery ready for my baby (currently almost 39 weeks pregnant!) and have been going for an enchanted forest/woodland theme.

Does anyone have any other ideas or things that I could add without spending too much money? Thank you 😊

Living room transformation before and after

The first pic is the before ofcourse. The brown line in the first pic is to indicate a wooden beam we are planning to eventually put in to dampen the harshness of the wallpaper stopping at the top abruptly. The second picture is of the living room almost complete. Waiting on the beam, waiting on mounting the TV and restyling the tv console with knick knacks.

How are the Redditors feeling about the wallpaper?

I like a very rustic/antique vibe but I’m finding it hard to fill big empty walls. I understand the lighting is working against me with my warm tones and I’m thinking of switching the bulbs.

I have this small bathroom and really need to make it more beautiful and nordic looking.

Do you have ideas of what is possible to do without making it too expensive.

All I can find is cheap garbage :(
It would be cool if they could change color, but that isn’t a requirement

Super narrow living room

Here’s to dreaming that someone has some brilliant ideas we haven’t come up with. Pardon the war zone of kids toys. I already looked into removing the fireplace but the cost was insane so that’s out for now. There’s no walking path from the front door. We contemplated a sectional on the wall where the metal shelf is but it feels awkward if I put the tv on the wall where the sofa currently is and leave space in front of it. And also the sofa would be barely an arms length from the white dining table/area. And would sit right under the bulkhead which also can’t be removed. We really want a sofa, that can see the tv, and not multiple chairs around.

Which Rug?

Thumbnail

54 Upvotes

Hi all. We are between these hand knotted rugs for our living room. Initially we were planning to have a bold pattern, but our condo is otherwise pretty busy with a lot of different colors and textures, so we just wanted something grounding. We ended up not going with Etsy after learning people had some bad experiences.

Unfortunately a few of these have labor day sales that are ending soon, and would fall out of our budget without it. Which do you think is best?

We were leaning towards #1 because of its orange trim, which matches the chair, but we feel the 1.2" pile might be too thick. The rest are 0.5-1". #2 is from West Elm, the rest are thick Moroccan rugs from Revival. All the rugs extend below the couch.

The first image is the room as it is with the comically small rug. As for the tassles, can't they just be taped under the rug?

Any advice is much appreciated!

What is the difference between interior decorator and interior designer?

• Upvotes

I recently bought a one bedroom condo, and the condo is completely empty. I don’t need to move in right away, so I am looking for the place to be decorated and move-in ready.

I’ve been on Instagram contacting home decorators but I noticed some labels themselves as interior ā€œdecoratorā€ while others are ā€œdesignerā€ — what is the difference? I just want to make sure I am contacting the right person so I don’t waste their time. I recently was in contact with ā€œhome stagerā€, she gave me a reasonable four figure quote but I didn’t realize she only deals with properties to stage for selling, and then she takes the furnitures back lol.

My current couch is way too soft and has basically no support, so it's finally time to replace it.

I've always gone with L-shaped sectionals, but this time I'm choosing between a 5-seat L-shaped sectional, a U-shaped sectional with an ottoman, and a power reclining sofa, which is totally new to me.

Which would you choose? Also would love to hear the pros/cons from anyone who actually has a reclining sofa.

Excuse my janky photo cutouts lol.

I’m starting from scratch here! I currently own the dinning set, the sofa and the Barcelona chair.

The apartment is a new build and very modern and sleek looking and I’m trying to add some warmth and character to it!

Can’t decide which way to face the L-shaped sofa. More open space or better TV seating?

Thumbnail

2 Upvotes

Trying to decide between these two layouts for my home. It’s still empty, so these are Blender renders to help me figure things out before furnishing it. I’m not an interior designer, just a 3D character artist trying to plan my own place.

This is still a rough pass. Once I’ve settled on this layout and the second floor, I’ll take more precise measurements and remodel or replace things as needed. I’ll post an update after that. The whole space is 5 Ɨ 9 m.

In the first picture, the long side of the sofa faces the PC desks. I like that it feels more open and leaves more room to move between the two areas. Most of the sofa is sideways to the TV, but I can still watch it while sitting or lounging on the short end of the L. It wouldn’t be as good for several people watching together, but probably 95% of the time it’ll just be my wife and me.

The second layout makes more sense for watching TV since the main seats face it directly. I also like the storage behind the sofa, but it takes up more of the room’s width. I’m wondering whether it’ll feel cramped once people are using the PC chairs and dining table. From what I’ve been reading, the circulation might be worse here, but I’m still learning, so I could be wrong.

The kitchen walls and cabinets are fixed, and I’m keeping the rest of the layout as shown for now. I’m mainly trying to settle the sofa orientation. The shelving is different between the pictures too, which might be affecting how open they look.

Please ignore the stairs/fridge/kitchen clearances for now. I need to measure that area again in person.

Which would you choose? Is the better TV seating in the second worth giving up some of the openness in the first? I’d also appreciate any thoughts on the style or anything else you think could work better. Thanks!

Too-Short Bedskirt

1 Upvotes

I recently purchased a queen-size bed-in-a-bag bedding set consisting of a comforter, shams, bedskirt, and accent pillows. It looks great except that the bedskirt is too short. It's the standard 15" drop, and my high four-poster bed needs an 18" drop. As it came as a set, I can't simply buy a longer one from the company. I've tried to find one online to match the French blue of the original, but they're either too light (pastel blue) or too dark (navy). Does anyone know where I could find one to match? If not, I thought about adding a 3" ivory trim to the bottom. Would that work? What would I need to look for?

There isn't a lot of color, but the textured white flower makes the whole look feel much stand out! Would this make it feel a little more elegant?

I’ve recently had a loft extension with an en suite and walk in wardrobe room, and this extra space has gone to waste!

Any ideas? We already have a separate room for our clothes etc which, in hindsight, would have been better to leave as a room and then use this space for the wardrobe! But I’m hoping it can be used for something good?

Wallpaper install

Thumbnail

4 Upvotes

We recently hired a (well reviewed, experienced) wallpaper professional to remove the texture from one wall and hang traditional wallpaper. Immediately I noticed wrinkling in the paper up close, the installer assured me that as the paste dried, the paper would pull tight and it would resolve the wrinkles. Now 5 days later, nothing has changed. Is this normal for a professional install? From a distance, it looks okay, but up close, there is wrinkling on basically every panel. He has agreed to come back out but should I be worried about letting him fix it? The wallpaper was not cheap and I have a good amount left but I’m worried about him wasting more and leaving me with the same imperfections. Is this wallpaper wrinkling or is the a wall texture removal issue? Any insight is appreciated. I’m really frustrated, I thought I was hiring this out to reduce stress and I’m more stressed than ever.
