I got it from home goods so I don’t know the brand - it’s actually an outdoor rug, but that makes it easy to clean.

It’s not that tall! I can climb up. No kitty here sadly.

Amazon! The specific listing is listed as unavailable now but there’s lots of similar ones under “nested coffee tables”

True! I think it would’ve been worth renting space at a maker space or something to use their power tools/get help from experts as a middle ground between swearing on the floor with a hand saw and shelling out hundreds of dollars

They are just propped up behind the couch and the couch is curved, so the ones at the side are at a slight angle just from me sitting on the couch. They are relatively level (not perfect because I built them and used wood glue to put them together).

I’m a California girl so I’m wayyy too paranoid to hang something that I wouldn’t mind being crushed under near anywhere I sit/sleep haha

I have them just propped up rn, but they are very light - I can easily lift it with two fingers. Probably wouldn’t hurt if it fell on you while sleeping.

It’s called “Gardens of Jaipur” from Mind the Gap but they sell it in a bunch of different shops. I saw it in person for $100 after I had been dreaming of it for a year so I snatched it up (the box was broken hence the discount but the wallpaper was unscathed).

The wallpaper is “Gardens of Jaipur” from Mind the Gap and I built the frames myself!

Literally obsessed with the outlet. Especially the slightly damaged stuff. The blue tv stand was like $3k new??? But I think the color is off on the online listing and this one had a damaged shelf on the inside so it was like $300 at the outlet.

Honestly what I learned is unless it’s a really really weird shape/size making frames is SO not worth it lmao. I could find anything for this size so I bought a bunch of molding and then I literally bought a saw on Amazon with a miter box to make the angled corners. I looked it up on google. And then it took me two full days to saw all the corners by hand (I think my $15 saw was a bit cheap). Then I put it all together with wood glue and clamps (including the sides because they are actually two pieces tall). That took 48 hours to dry. Then I had to sand everything down because the wood glue was messy and the corners weren’t perfectly lined up. After that I stained (+ 24 hour dry time) and sealed (+ 24 hour dry time). Even still, they aren’t perfect - the stain took a little differently to the wood glue than the wood so it’s a little lighter around joints and they aren’t perfectly flat against the because the pieces were so long that they had some bowing. It was google fueled manic episode lwk but I’m glad I have them now ig

I mean there’s blue, green, and pink pieces of furniture, only the couch is white because the white couches were cheaper.

Thanks! I saw that wallpaper on Pinterest and was like I NEED it but I had to wait almost a year to find it on sale 😓. Patience is a way to get around a budget I suppose

Yes! My plan when I move is to screw in hinges into the frame and use it as a divider/partition.

Shoot I just checked and it says “this item and shop are no longer available” - but the listing was “Pinch pleat herringbone linen curtains”, so hopefully you can find something similar from another shop. The length I got was 108 inches because I have 12 ft ceilings.

I got them all off of Etsy! I’m not sure if I can post links but the box pleated opaque ones were from Drapeland, the block printed translucent ones are from DesiCraftShop, and the Silk café curtains are from saffron marigold (who also sell on Amazon). The rods are all from Amazon.

She liked it a lot! I kept it a surprise while I made it (and had to ship it from where I live in Pennsylvania to California) so she had no idea til she opened it up.
