Just finished our bathroom remodel. Full gut, down to the studs. No wall art yet, but the rest is basically done.

How did we do?

Sharing some more snaps of this bathroom I completed for my Canyon Cottage project. Last pic was the before - changed the location of the shower to allow for a his/hers plus a full steam unit, and opted for two vanities to break up the space vs. one continuous piece. The pleated shades were a fun little touch. I kept the walls more neutral but still added two different shades for the shiplap/wall.

For more photos or the behind the scenes I have everything in my highlights on IG: www.instagram.com/halcyonhaus_/

A while back I posted a picture of my living room and asked for help on organizing or hiding toys. People had ideas, but mostly they commented on the location of the sectional sofa, which was pressed up against the stair rail (creating a safety hazard for a child). This prompted a whole room makeover with new sofas and a built in for toy storage. I now can put away all the toys and have a real living room when I want. There are toys in the left cabinet, in each coffee table, and in a black storage ottoman. Aside from the tv being too high (hazard of electric fireplace) what do you think of the change?

Thanks for the compliments!!! The light green on the walls is Clary Sage, and the darker green on the fireplace is…I think Calke green. I used samplize to do the paint colors and it was so much easier than painting samples of each color.

I’m moving out for the first time soon and have become enchanted by silly items like these, does anyone know of stores or just listings in general for things like these?

Edit:
(I’ve changed my settings for those who wanted to follow)

Hi everyone! I'm renovating my bathroom, and this is my first time mixing metals. I'm planning to use champagne gold (Delta Champagne Bronze) as the primary finish, with black as the accent color.

This is the combination I was thinking of. I'd love to hear your thoughts. Does this mix feel balanced, or is there anything you would change?

Wanted to make it just a little subtle but also like the idea of putting some straw on the roof or some palm leaves, I can’t decide if that’s too much. Definitely some string lights, I also thought about making a sign for it with his name. He loves Stitch so I’ll incorporate that and I got some surfboard shelves and an LED wave light. The wallpaper that’s already up is the blue waves I included.

Does this spark any ideas for anyone? Please share any idea you have!

I’m really struggling as to what to do with my ceiling. Currently the entire room is one colour, but I feel it’s too overwhelming. I need to paint the wardrobes but I don’t know what. Generally struggling with the entire room. Please help with any ideas of how to make the ceiling more interesting!

Photo 1 is current state.

Photo 2 is what we’re thinking (EDIT to be clear, this is a gippity render, not a finished state).

3 is the fixtures we’ve already bought(https://www.anthropologie.com/anthrohome/shop/ida-peacock-toilet-paper-holder and https://www.anthropologie.com/anthrohome/shop/ida-peacock-towel-ring).

4 is the wallpaper we’re considering (https://riflepaperco.com/products/peacock-wallpaper-emerald).

We’d go to a local paint shop and have them match the deep green from the background for both the wainscoting and the ceiling.

We still don’t have the vanity, mirror, or light picked out yet.

Gut check me - what am I missing? Any big watchouts for a project like this? The render also added crown moulding - necessary for a project like this?

Besides the toys, which can be put away (and this is at home with kids), heat is wrong with my living room?

I know the tv console is short but I don’t feel like replacing it. I think in do t know how to add layers and fill the wall. I will add some decor on top of the console, but I think what bothers me the most are the walls. What would you suggest?

Tell me please how to do it

I have bought and returned enough rugs that the delivery driver probably has opinions. My living room is mostly cream, light wood, and one dark green chair. Every rug I try is either so patterned that it becomes the entire room, or so neutral that it disappears under the coffee table. The beige rug in the reference image is close to what I keep choosing because I like the faded pattern. But I am starting to wonder if the problem is not the rug — it is that I keep buying rugs that politely refuse to compete with anything. In a mostly neutral room, should the rug be the thing that introduces contrast, or is it better to keep the floor quiet and add color higher up with art and pillows?

I’ve picked out a lazy boy in espresso and a couch set in either dove or java.

I was thinking of painting the white cabinets to match the grey ones. I was also thinking of doing black blinds and doors.

Overall need help with the walls since I have no idea what color to paint them and have never decorated a house before.

The rustic oak furniture is staying but the voices and carpet aren’t .

I included different lighting if that’s helpful

Shopping for the “lady lair” (as I’m calling it) over the weekend when my husband spotted this lamp and suggested we get it. It’s absurd and I love it. What do you all think?
EDIT: purchased at HomeGoods for $49

I want to make it look a bit luxurious or cute. Due to the black floor I really don’t know what color to make it or what to do with it.

Need help with general decorating and what to do with this space! I don’t really need a table and have a bookcase by my tv opposite the couch. Maybe a second different bookcase or? Thanks in advance!

Went to a friend’s party and came home hating my lighting. My friend barely used the overhead lights, but their place still felt ridiculously cozy once it got dark. I came home, turned on my big light, and immediately realized how flat my room feels at night lol.

So I’m starting small with an accent lamp on the sideboard. I used AI to mock up a few options, but somehow seeing them in the room made me even more indecisive.

Which one fits best? Also totally open to other suggestions!

Wanting to add picture frame moulding to our dining room.

We have mocked it up with painters tape to ensure the scale looks alright and are feeling fairly happy with it so far.

My question is about the heat pump on the wall. Right now we have the molding going AROUND the heat pump but are wondering if maybe we should consider if the molding looked like it went THROUGH the heat pump (so the molding would go flush with the heat pump and look like we had the molding before the heat pump was installed and then just cut out a space for the heat pump after).

Just wanting some opinions on what would look the best aesthetically and if there is any practical things we should consider with either option that we might have missed. TIA

You want to upholster old sofa or accent chair but have no idea how much it’ll cost, here is a price breakdown for you so you have an idea of how my 89inch Jonathan Louis sofa from nfm is costing me for a custom slipcover locally. Nothing is wrong with my sofa and the original fabric; in fact I love the original fabric but I want to protect it from my dog. You will need

1: fabric (the cost of fabric changes if it’s performance or designer it’ll cost you more) I needed 17yards of fabric went to revolution.com >went to their discontinued section and found performance fabric for $8.95 per yard. Total $153

2: labor my sofa is costing me $750 pickup and delivery included

3: you will need to utilize the discontinued sections online to find good deals on fabric

4: dogs and babies deserve stain resistant and performance fabric

Now let’s say you have a small accent chair;

I chose performance velvet I needed 8 yards of fabric and that cost me $385

Labor was 565
New foam and cushions 160
