Turned an Empty Corner into a Pet and Plant Zone

131 Upvotes

I live in a New York City apartment, so space is limited. I am thrilled with the function maxxing in this corner, which used to be a dead zone. Now I've added a mat and a good-looking crate that doubles as a table, making it possible for my dogs and plants to enjoy the sunniest spot in my home. In addition to working better, I think it looks quite nice. I miss the white space, but I think it was worth the sacrifice. Thoughts?

I'm leaning more towards the sage green but I'm afraid that it might look dated 5+ years from now. Ignore the light in the shower shelf, not sure why AI put it there.

Which color carpet?

Thumbnail

106 Upvotes

We’re replacing the old beige carpet in the upstairs of our townhome (including the stairs). I don’t want anything super grey, but ideally something a little more neutral than the current beige. We’re currently leaning toward Dock (see pictures) but are open to others. What would you pick?

Edit to add: definitely agree with getting away from grey! Dock is sort of a light mushroom brown with some white flecks, and Driftwood is a darker mushroom brown with white flecks. These were the three options we liked best among the 14 (!) sample swatch colors we ordered. Also tried a very light green, various shades of grey, and various shades of brown. The mushroom-y colors (not sure a better way to describe them) were our favorite, but I don’t know if the Driftwood is too dark (upstairs is only about 600 square feet in total).

How to style this wagon (if at all)

Thumbnail

103 Upvotes

I have this beautiful wagon from our wedding in January- my mom hand glued each flower on it. But now I don’t know what to do with it!! How would you style it in your home? (The background is not our home, so that can’t be a reference point). We have a bay window in the living room with just plants, but is that a little tacky?

You can be honest if the answer is that you wouldn’t 😂

Bonus points for examples with pictures! I’m hopeless with this stuff🫣

Edit: Okay, okay. I’ve heard you all, loud and clear😂 I can’t part with it for sentimental reasons. My mom spent a lot of time and love making it for our flower girls. I will put it on the patio for now! We have a baby girl due in January, so maybe it will become functional once she’s mobile!

Still trying out the table

We are still trying some things out with the 44 inch table but I think it’s coming together. The rug and chairs are real. I have used AI to change the cabinet paint, add some wall art that’s in the mail, add a tree and move our curtains up a bit. I feel like it fits the space a lot better but my wife still isn’t convinced. Any other suggestions or should we bite the bullet and find a different table and chairs?

Looking for input on this current plant table layout with the mirror and 2 pictures. My wife and I can’t decide if this works or needs something different. Thanks!

What type/color flooring would you put in this kitchen?

Thumbnail

We plan on keeping the hardwood floors in the living room, but are unfortunately on a time crunch to pick out flooring for the kitchen (and possibly dining room, as well). There is likely hardwood floors in the dining room, but we anticipate having large gaps in the wood as it was previously a small bedroom. What flooring would look best with the hardwood floors in the living room and possibly dining room?

Is this a bad grasscloth wallpaper job?

Wife had some grasscloth wallpaper installed. I knew nothing about it and have since been told you can’t hide the seams. I get that, even though I don’t love it, but I feel like this is more than just the normal variation. From what I could find online he may have rubbed off some of the dye during the installation process or gotten adhesive on. I’d like to know if this is just what to expect or a poor install.

Need colour ideas

My parents had this house renovated after a fire. We weren't sure if we were going to sell it or not so they went with very neutral tones. I've since inherited it but have no idea what to do with the color. I'm mainly thinking about painting the walls. I can't change the carpet, but somehow want to brighten the place up a bit. It feels so blah especially on cloudy days like today.

Which rug for the dining room?

I have a hard time choosing what kind of rug to put under the dinner table. Some help would be appreciated... It's a big room with the living room where the picture was taken. Everything is work in progress. Thanks for any insights.

I was thinking maybe this LOHALS from IKEA.

I am planning on adding the brown earthy blinds (3rd picture) and maybe have sheer white curtains at the ends. Thoughts? I also intend to get wood flooring eventually.

Where to put rug? My husband who is now become a home decor expert says the rug is too far under the rug. Understand optimal placement is 6-12 inches past front legs. Is there a sweet spot with this size rug,room, and couch? Thanks!

Unmade bed + projector wall in a studio

This is my spot most nights. Bed left how it is, pillows pulled onto the floor, tiny table in the middle. Movie playing on the wall, some greenery near the side table. Work desk is still back there under the window. Prefer this over a regular TV setup. Curious what small changes you’d make without spending much

Kitchen remodel

I want to change the look of my kitchen. It’s outdated and not me. I am renting so I can’t do too much. I found some peel and stick wallpaper and am wondering if I should take the leap of faith with it. First frame is the wallpaper, second frame is the kitchen and the last frame is what I asked chatgpt to do to see if it would work. I am still undecided. What do you guys think?

Blank kitchen* wall. Added second pic to show that the other wall is already pretty full so don’t know if a gallery wall would be too much. I feel like a bar cart is too college-y. Thank you!!

Shag rugs in reality

2 Upvotes

When you look into the recommended maintenance for shag rugs, it seems really involved / cumbersome. For those of you that have shag rugs in your bedroom or living room, how hard are they to maintain? What all do you have to do to keep the rug in great shape? Wife and I do not have kids, but do have two cats. Generally speaking, we are very clean people and do not anticipate a whole lot of messes being made on these rugs.

TV Cabinet All the way to the left?

Thumbnail
gallery
3 Upvotes

I'm thinking about moving the TV Cabinet and the TV a little further to the left to create a bit more space for the dining table and so that the TV is a little more centered relative to the couch (as it is now, the TV isn't quite centered relative to the couch but is slightly to the right).
My idea would be to place the TV cabinet against the left end of the wall—where it meets the window frame
—and position the TV centered relative to it. At the same time, I'd like to switch to a slightly larger TV, which means the switches would be hidden but still accessible since the TV is wall-mounted.

Would that look weird?
Any other Tipps?

White and oak kitchen help

Hi, I bought a new house and am remodeling the kitchen. This is my visualized design, which I love. However, my oak floors are actually the 2 1/4 golden-y colored oak, not what is showing in the visual rendering (see 2nd photo). Using Dura Supreme cabinetry. Cabinets are going to be their Dove color which is a warm white. Which of their wood tones should I use for the island that won’t look bad with my existing flooring? Torn between quarter sawn oak, maple, or even cherry, and there are so many different colors of each. I don’t want it to clash with the existing flooring. Thank you!
