Which bathroom option?

I’m leaning towards the bold dark and moody option

Edit to add : I don’t do my hair or make up in the bathroom! I have a vanity in my office where I do that. This is for showering and brushing teeth and using the toilet.

Thoughts on this decor with the Chesterfield sofa?

Hubby and I want to splurge on a green Chesterfield sofa and love seat, but I’m not going to do a dark academia theme only because our walls have to remain white (renters), and I don’t like the academia aesthetic with white walls. Half of my family is from Kenya and this look is speaking to my soul… But does it work with the couch?

Laundry Room -

We are redoing the flooring in our laundry room finally after the washer has flooded it 3 times..
The oak is non negotiable since it’s real wood, but what would be a good choice to match?
One picture is the entrance from the formal living and the other entrance is from the first floor bathroom (2 entrances)

Personally I was thinking black and white tile with a design, but that would be wild.. or should I stick with the dark wood?

Since yall were so helpful in my carpet journey for the living, I put trust in this post!
Any help is appreciated, Thanks!!!

What’s my style / How did I do?

What’s my style? I’m in my 40s and am reclaiming my space after the kids moved out.

I have zero design experience - I am on an Amazon and thrift store budget. I’ve been collecting or inheriting furniture, can’t afford sets. does it look like a crayon box exploded in here? Boho? How did I do?

Matching ceiling to walls or paint ceiling white?

I’m painting my daughters room and I don’t know what to do with the ceilings

Colors are from Dunn Edwards:
Accent Wall - First Kiss (light pink)
Remaining walls - Whisper (off white)
Closet - Whisper
Closet doors - Warm white
Trim - Warm White
Ceilings: ?

I’m torn between matching the ceilings to the walls or just painting them plain ol’ ceiling white.

Thoughts?

Help choosing a rug pls :)

Hello!! I recently moved into a new place and would love some help picking out a rug to go with my set up. Also would love help understanding how to properly size the rug. Does it need to fully fit under the couch? I would assume it doesn't need to go under my TV stand but maybe touching it?
I'm going for a mid century modern look. I would love to change my couch eventually but am stuck with it for a bit while I focus on purchasing other furniture first. I'm thinking an olive green couch but welcome any suggestions. :)
I'm not afraid of color. I want my space to feel cozy and match well.
Thank you for any help :)

Getting rid of the grey

I want to color drench the upper part of my small bathroom but I’m stuck on a color choice. It sits adjacent to the laundry room pictured (on the same hallway) so I feel like I should pull in some version of those colors. Maybe a mauve?

The grey was here when I moved in and I don’t have the color (but need to repaint around the mirror) so I thought I would go in a more fun direction rather than color match existing paint.

Is this candle holder ugly?

I got this candle holder from a thrift store. I'm going for a dark academia vibe.

I've never decorated with candle holders/candles before so I didn't really know if I could make this work.

Is this cute or ugly? I won't be offended!

Replacement light fixture

I am having a hard time deciding what to replace this light fixture over our island with. My style is very cottage-y and vintage but I also like some modern elements. The main issue is that our ceilings are very low and having a fixture like this makes the ceilings feel even lower. Would something more flush mount look ok? Would love some ideas!!

Powder room lighting

Working on redoing our powder room. Want to have a bold overall design but still have a more warm feeling.

I know for sure I will go with a softer white going forward. But not quite sure what type of fixture would work.

Any suggestions on how to light this room better?

Thanks.

Lucia Living

Has anyone purchased from Lucia Living? I'm trying to determine if it's good quality, I really love this lamp but for $200 Aus Dollars I want to help confident it's not a rip off.

Does anyone know of any lamps similar to this one from a reputable site?

A small update!

After —> before

I posted here awhile back with our updated entryway. The light fixture had gotten overlooked in the first iteration, so we made a swap based on suggestions made here. THANK YOU!

How can I improve these sidelights?

We inherited them this way and I think the gauzy material is ugly and dated. What would some options be that still obscure the view of the inside of the house from the outside, but still let light in?

Edit: Thanks, folks! I’m aware that window films exist and for whatever reason it didn’t occur to me that they’d be an option here. Perfect solution.

To colour drench or not?

We're almost done with building our home and I am so on the fence about whether to leave the doors and trim white or match it with the walls. The second photo (it's our foyer) is what it currently is (first coat paint - trim/doors haven't been painted yet), the first and third image is what I'm contemplating doing. Sorry if the colours don't look totally right (chatgpt). The paint colour is Sherwin Williams Shiitake.

I LOVE the monochromatic look, it looks so chic and makes the space look so clean - I'm just worried about whether it'll be a PITA to repaint all the trim if we change the colours in a few years. Maybe it's even silly to worry about it.

Any feedback welcome.
