Renting so pillar cannot be removed. Thanks!

Wanted to make this loft area into a media/game room but this giant pillar makes it awkward. Any ideas?

Tidying up 🧼 🛏️ 🧸 

Could the group help me finally pick a rug? I’ve been staring for 6 months and haven’t made a decision. Living room at the end (navy chair is normally where the Christmas tree is at the moment).

Slowly putting up all my art!

Hello, I'm moving soon and I will need a small dining table. I found out that computer desks are way cheaper than dining tables where I live. 

Here's the thing, I am 155 cm (5'1), the standard height for a dining table is 75 cm and for a work/computer desk: 80 cm. I do have a chair that I can change its height. The table is for me, I barely host, but I want to be comfortable. 5 cm isn't a lot, it's just that I am not tall. I can't thrift due to disability. 

I just don't want to pay double for a table. Do you think that it can work? Thanks.

My Cozy Apartment🥰

So I (27F) have moved around a lot every year since college and especially in the last 10ish months (3 times.) because of this I don’t really keep any decorations in my room bc it’s just more to pack. I also spend little time in my room. I petsit at others’ a lot and I generally to try maintain a minimal lifestyle. However I have a date with a girl I really like Thursday and she’s coming over to make dinner before we go out and do some Christmasy things. While I don’t want to totally transform my room, are there any things you can think of to make it look a little better? I’m currently out of town (these are the only pics I have) and will have one day to put some things on the walls. I can order ahead though. Essentially today is Monday morning. I get back into town Tuesday night and my date is Thursday evening. 

I do have blinds I will install in the window. Also all the stuff on the bed in the second pic is no longer there I just don’t have that many pics and wanted to show the different angles. 

Also the lighting is generally pretty good in the room, I just had poor lighting when taking the pics. TIA!! 

More context if you’re interested: I went through a breakup right before I moved this most recent time and decorating was the last thing on my mind. When I was the previous girl I always went to her place and eventually thought we’d move in together. So it’s not that I don’t like any decorations, I just didn’t prioritize it. But now I’m on a time crunch and budget with the holidays and I’m hoping to make it a little cuter and put together.

Advice please! Trying to make space look a little more put together

Hi lovelies! I think I’ve narrowed down my rug search to the final few, and would love an outside perspective! I love the idea of having some dark turquoise/emerald to offset the burgundy couch but after looking at hundreds of rugs all day I feel like I’m color blind. Which rug would you go with? None is also an option. (They will all be slightly bigger too, I just threw them in photoshop quickly & didn’t adjust for the dimensions.)

Thanks in advance!

Hi all! I just moved into a small studio and I was wondering what type of rug would make the living room area (the section with the TV, couch, coffee table) cozier? I’ve never shopped for a rug before so any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Also any additional ideas to make my living space cozier like lights and wall decor would also be very welcome! 🤗

I’ve been lurking on this page for awhile. I love all of your spaces :) I attached a few showing off my little 1920s cottage style home. A sanctuary for me and my sweet kitties 🥹 there are vines that grow over my window in the summer, it’s the best!

Suggestions for framing these prints? Going in my office which has a navy accent wall and light oak floors. Remaining walls are very, very pale yellow - almost white. No furnture yet, but will have a comfy chair and desk. Thanks! #framingprints, #cozyspace, 

I live in a studio and the living room/bedroom area has no overhead light. It gets dark at 4 pm in the winter where I live. I have lamps but they are not enough when its dark out. In the afternoon when I'm working from home I want a lot of light, not the mood lighting  I like at night. Any recommendations for a bright lamp?

What should I do with the empty space above my bed?

I tried posting in another sub but it auto removed my post due to account age and something else, so I’m not sure if this will post. But here goes..

I live in a 1bed 1 bath basement apartment. My toddler gets the bedroom so my husband and I can have some time together at night and some sort of privacy. I feel like it’s looking very bland, but I love the look of mid century modern decor with mostly neutrals, but a splash of color (esp green), any ideas what to do? If anything should be moved? Etc etc

My „depression dungeon“. 

Hi all, my apartment is pretty white and I was thinking to do an accent wall where the blue arrow is pointing. I’m generally going for an earthy, woody vibe so I wanted to do a green accent wall (also my favourite colour) but I worry it might be green overload with my couch and plants. 

Also don’t ask about tv wall mount lol. The owner took or lost the brackets when they moved and I haven’t gotten around to taking it down.

The hobbit hole’s halls are officially decked!

Little tip: if you’ve got pets that might knock ornaments off, use bread ties to secure them to the tree instead of hooks. 

Ps this is Eleanor’s first ever tree of any kind

Greetings gals! 

I recently moved into a new apartment, and I’m super excited to make it feel like home. The space is great, but I’m looking for some creative, affordable ways to decorate and keep things organized. Particularly bathroom and living space.

I have items from my old place that don’t seem to fit in, like the clothing rack in the corner, that i’m not sure i’ll keep.

Some key points:

- I’m on a budget, so cost-effective solutions are especially welcome. Suggestions for textures, colors and storage options would be wonderful. I’m likely to thrift for decor.

- I’m hoping to give off a vintage garden/seaside vibe? 

- My dog doesn’t go on furniture, and is non-destructive so it’s okay to suggest decor in the dog’s reach.

- there’s a big HVAC unit under the window and a balcony door in the corner that make things awkward for furniture placement. Not sure how to move things around those, but open to ideas.

Would love to hear ideas that you think might complement the space. Any suggestions for improvement would a great help, as i struggle to have a vision, lol

Dog tax included!

Hi, I’m having trouble deciding where I should put my couch. Apologies stuff is all over the place in the pictures, I’m moving things around and getting rid of stuff. I’m planning to switch out the desk for something smaller. What advice do people have for me?
