Most of the art is various convention finds with a couple mass produced pieces and a framed pressed flower.

Farewell bare white walls and uncomfy stools... Hello cosy little nook that I can watch the rain from heheh

There's still a fair bit to go but I am SO proud of what I've accomplished thus far (with partners help)

Help!!!!

Just re-signed my lease for another year and looking for renter friendly inspo on how to turn my bedroom from beachy beetlejuice vibes to more vampire boudoir. I would like to use the furniture I already have, as my vanity and my dresser are pretty new, but I am also pretty crafty so I don’t mind re-vamping (lol) them! I love deep reds, black, mustardy yellows, greens, sapphires, etc. any tips ideas or images for reference are helpful - I am having the hardest time picking curtains/a new duvet cover.

Please see pics for how it is now - I will be responding in the comments below to any questions.

Thank you!!

Should the wall be kept bare or add the painting

My daughter saw the 'La Nature' in museum and asked if we can buy it for our house :-). It was impossible to find any good reproduction so we decided to create ourselves in 1:2 scale using innovative materials and additive manufacturing techniques. It took us 5 months to produce it in bronze composite (we adapted the model published by Roberto Dominguez), hand polished and applied deep brown patina. Natural Lapis Lazuli in tiara. Which version do you like more?

my therapist recently told me i should document my apartment. it's maximalism in a minimal space, especially because i run my online vintage business out of here.

Hi everyone! This is the first protest poster I’ve ever made, so I’m not sure whether the design turned out as well as I hoped. I created it to express my opposition to the growing use of minimalism, ultraminimalism, flat design, and related aesthetics. After Instagram and other developers changed their logos and designs toward a more minimalist aesthetic about a week ago, I felt even more motivated to speak out. If these styles continue replacing more detailed, expressive, and distinctive designs, we are free to peacefully protest, voice our opinions, and advocate for alternatives—in public spaces, online, or elsewhere. We want more soul, depth, color, texture, beauty, identity, and personality in design!

💖💖💖y'all

Always happy to share more of my living room! The first part was well received.

Brown is my favourite colour!

It is time for me to reupholster my 20+ year old sofa and I am looking for specific recommendations of websites to locate for high quality upholstery fabric. Ideally, I'd like to buy yardage of a few different black and white patterned fabric that are all manufactured by the same company so the colors will match. I do not want cotton canvas. Please do not tell me "etsy" unless you have a specific shop to recommend :) Thank you very much fellow maximalists.

Ps. I have to say this is an older photo and I have much better/more art on the walls now, lol. but i felt like i needed to share a photo to grab eyes

PPS. I made those pillows :)

Need more!!! What else can help complete this kitschy kitchen?

I’m thinking the solid color duvet and maybe accenting with the checked pillow cases. I really wish they were stripes and not checks but am having a tough time finding stripes in the right color that are also in stock. Thoughts? I’m also open to other color combos. The only thing I own so far are the flowered sheets.

The first of 2022 was when me and my family just moved in and I was on my mattress. 2025 was when I was barely working as a student and i disliked my bedroom. Finally, the 2026 picture is from after my graduation as an interior designer and when I decided to do a make over of my room as my interior design style. The style I am most fond of and which you will see in the photos are eclectic/transitional and evidently very colorful.

‼️‼️The plates on top of my headboard are edited in the photo using CANVA not AI. I still wanted to upload my progress but that’s the last detail that’s missing, the plates. I edited them in to see what shape, size and color fit best for the room. Like a sort of Moodboard to help me find them quicker at the thrift.

I'm still not done. But the vibe is there.

Working on my maximalist dream home and I’m looking for fun and creative ideas for displaying my little pals! Please be kind <3

hi, lifelong collector here. vintage perfumes and antiques are my special interests and bring me so much joy. ask me anything! ❤️

Would anyone know where to find dinnerware sets in a similar style to the 1800s Avon Cape Cod Ruby dining set?? I like that glass/crystal type look and I enjoy the deep rich colors.

Update to those Curious: we are currently talking about how to get these shipped to me and other details- this sub has been incredibly kind especially when I don’t post often so thank you everyone!!

🏡 Thank you all so much for all of the kind words about my tiny home on my previous posts! 🧡🩵🩷💛

Here some more shots of my little bitty living room! 💡 (featuring my sweet baby cats 😻😻)

🌈 Most of my decor is thrifted, gifted, or found via eBay, Etsy, Facebook Marketplace, antique flea markets, and also while traveling. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask!

🌼 I can’t wait to show you all more!

😅 FYI, A lot of you really liked my vintage wicker/rattan entertainment center, and there were a lot of questions about it in the comments, so I made post in this sub-reddit, sharing some close-up details of the piece and my styling, but it was removed. Then, I edited the post, and it was removed again, because my wicker piece is “not maximalist” due to the color palette being too “beige and brown”… 🤷‍♀️ So I deeply apologize that I can’t show it as much anymore.
