As gross as it, toilet mist is getting everywhere when we flush. If you overthink you can really get the ICK from it. But if it hasn't k!lled us yet...can't worry about it too much.

You already have several strong elements here — the black feature wall, the artwork, the wood slats and those beautiful warm-toned chairs — so I wouldn’t add many more statement pieces. I think the next step is to connect what you already have.

I’d repeat the warm caramel/rust tones from the chairs very selectively in the living area, perhaps through a couple of textiles or one smaller accent. You already have enough black in the lighting and feature wall, so I’d focus more on texture now: a substantial rug, softer fabrics, a larger plant and a few organic shapes would balance all the hard architectural surfaces beautifully.

After five years of renovating, I’d also resist decorating every empty spot. A little negative space will make the pieces you’ve chosen look much more intentional.

If you’re still deciding what overall direction you want the finished space to take, I recently created four completely different transformations of the same living room. Seeing how differently one room can look with different colors, lighting, furniture and statement pieces might give you some inspiration for the finishing touches in yours:

Love the pillows. Really looking good. Just one critique: center the mirror above the console. It could just be perspective but it looks like it’s off just a tad. Enjoy your space!

I like your new pillows! But I think you only need one set. The large on one side and the medium plus lumbar on the other end. Or maybe 2 on each side mixed.


Are the sconces for over the DR console? If so, I think a brass or other metal would look good besides the black.


I love your house and decor!

Your dog is so cute!

I really like how your dresser fills up the wall under the TV like a media console - looks really nice! If I didn't have a fireplace on the wall opposite my bed, I would add a similar looking dresser across the entire wall!

I would consider adding art on both sides of the wall where the TV is mounted. That would help make the TV less prominent + they would look nicer than a bunch of little photos sitting on top of the dresser underneath the TV.

I assume that you want a tonal room = don't want to introduce any accent color to the room? I also assume that the plastic is still on the lamp shade because you are still deciding whether to keep it or return it. If you don't want to add an accent color, I would introduce some extra textures to the room. For example, you could add a textured long lumbar pillow to set in front of your three Euro pillows.

I definitely would not paint the soffit about your bed. Your headboard covers most of the wall already - painting the soffit would bring down the height of the room even more.


I feel like you already have enough mirrors - however, I am not a designer = maybe hanging some over the nightstands is a good idea - I just am not sure.

Hey friends, now that I’ve figured out my storage problem, I would love to know your final thoughts on if I should dye this sofa green or hist leave it tan. Thanks!

The shelves look great! Nice storage but aesthetic as well. If you're trying to hide stains, dyeing it will still show them. I think I'd be more inclined to leave it as is.

I think you might live in an earthquake zone. Am I correct?


In any case, all that stuff over the sofa would not be my choice, as I mentioned up thread. If you are in an earthquake zone, obviously even more of an issue.


I posted a product for cleaning leather in my comment upthread, months ago.
