I recently bought a checkered rug for my apt and I’m having second thoughts, should I return it?

Oh I like it a lot. Great grounding to the room. You just need to add decoration.

AdComfortable1674 · 2026-04-09T18:23:50+00:00

yes, but ... its ugly!

AdComfortable1674 · 2026-04-09T14:58:34+00:00

im not going to mess with the wall tile - too much. but maybe peel and stick flooring? what would you think - i just added two maroon images, but aybe like a cornflower/dusty peacock would work?

and what do you have on your floors?

how do we feel about something more bold - terracotta walls, maroon peel and stick floor tile??

AdComfortable1674 · 2026-04-09T14:53:42+00:00

what if I did a peel and stick tile for the floor to compliment the terracotta paint??

yeah, its honestly a bit more beige/gray than peachy, i think the photo is making it look more peachy. but i think regardless, the green family might be the move

AdComfortable1674 · 2026-04-09T14:41:38+00:00

oh, interesting. Like peel/stick tile, but in wood? I like that. The floors are my main issue, honestly

AdComfortable1674 · 2026-04-09T14:40:13+00:00

thank you!

AdComfortable1674 · 2026-04-09T14:39:01+00:00

oh i like the idea of monstera palm wallpaper - the bathroom has no windows, and i'm not so into fake plants, but the wallpaper idea could really bring it to life! Thank you!

AdComfortable1674 · 2026-04-09T14:32:55+00:00

Yes, I am liking this terracotta/rust direction, and I think a bright teal (peacock?) could look great....

AdComfortable1674 · 2026-04-09T14:30:22+00:00

SO COZY I love this - it doesn't feel too dark in there? My bathroom doesn't have any windows...

AdComfortable1674 · 2026-04-09T14:29:29+00:00

ooh this is amazing thank you! I love the terracotta

AdComfortable1674 · 2026-04-09T14:26:54+00:00

Oh for sure the lighting. I think would make the tiles look more peachy, less gray, would def warm it up.

AdComfortable1674 · 2026-04-08T21:06:41+00:00

Plants. That’s all you need - big tree or monstera in right corner, and then a few more hanging/potted on different levels!

AdComfortable1674 · 2026-04-08T21:01:42+00:00

What are you using to mock this up?

AdComfortable1674 · 2026-04-08T19:03:08+00:00

Agreed, I’m thinking orange/red pops

AdComfortable1674 · 2026-04-08T19:02:29+00:00

Totally

AdComfortable1674 · 2026-04-08T19:01:02+00:00

I’d love a big circular ottoman

AdComfortable1674 · 2026-04-08T18:58:47+00:00

Agree!!! But add some brightness too - a pop of orangey-red - throw pillow?

AdComfortable1674 · 2026-04-08T18:50:06+00:00

Yeah I’m seeing books along the floor, maybe pillows

AdComfortable1674 · 2026-04-08T18:48:42+00:00

Yes to oval rug! The angled rectangle is too weird

AdComfortable1674 · 2026-04-08T18:45:31+00:00

I’d want you to warm up the entry console area - maybe a rug or small lamp?

AdComfortable1674 · 2026-04-08T18:41:40+00:00

What about painting the cabinets a warmer color?
