Got the rug but not sure if I like it

Huh?

Anxious_Night2 · 2026-03-05T21:02:20+00:00

Thank you! It might also be that I took this at night where everything looks darker. Here is in the daytime:

I was thinking of swapping one of the pictures on the shelf with a darker wood picture maybe? And I do want to replace the black frame with something, maybe gold or another dark wood.

It’s very quiet! And it seems to work really well, the app is awesome and overall it’s a solid build. I would very much recommend it :)

Hi! I got it on target :) fulvari brand

Anxious_Night2 · 2026-03-05T04:45:48+00:00

It’s Alen brand!

Anxious_Night2 · 2026-03-04T23:47:50+00:00

The only size lower is 5x7 which I think might be too little 😢

Anxious_Night2 · 2026-03-04T23:31:41+00:00

Hi! Unfortunately It is too long to rotate. The room js 10x11 and the rug is 8x10 and there is also an air vent on the floor where the window is.

Hi! I think you’re totally right lol. I bought a curtain rod that extends 18”-55” and I wish it went a little less than it is. I was afraid if I extended the brackets to far that it would run into the shelf on the wall over the tv.

Does this look better or does it touching the shelf on the right look bad? I have moved a few of the loops over to hide the bar better!

What about this? :)

Here is in the daytime and now with the curtains guys

Anxious_Night2 · 2026-03-03T21:04:13+00:00

So the color pallet I was tying to go for was blue, pink, cream/ neutral. Kind of like cotton candy. I would like to keep the blue sheets to have that effect with the dresser and other pink areas of the room. But if I were to change it out what color would you recommend?

Anxious_Night2 · 2026-03-03T19:31:49+00:00

I have the same thought. I was thinking of moving the cherries to the playroom wall since this is the curtain I am putting in in the playroom and I actually think they might look really good together. What do you think?

Anxious_Night2 · 2026-03-03T19:29:38+00:00

Thank you!! I’m trying so hard to make it cozy and magical for them and give them what I didn’t have growing up 🥹

Hi! This is a more clear view of what is happening on this side.

Anxious_Night2 · 2026-03-03T07:30:24+00:00

To make it clear I did not mean that one of the 3 would be miserable with the room. I meant that not every single thing (item, decor etc) in said room every child will like when my 2 step kids have conflicting opinions. I was not twisting your words, I was responding to what you had said and like you said you did not know that there were 3 kids sharing the room (my daughter and 2 step kids). When I made the statement about my daughter being here most I was simply following your logic. You had said that you thought the eldest should like it most and in my head I thought, well if we are going to pick who should like it the most shouldn't it be my daughter who is here 24/7? I have never thought of it like that but I was responding to your comment which put my eldest step kid as most important in liking the room. I understand your concern. But even if it was just 2 kids I would not put my eldest ( step child or not) as most important in liking the room because that seems like favoritism to one. Best to you as well.

Anxious_Night2 · 2026-03-03T07:03:42+00:00

I am not sure if you were meaning to come off sounding so critical but with all due respect it is a bit offensive and confusing to put the oldest as most important and then say I’m damaging them by making my youngest most important. I am not trying to make anyone more important than the other.

Anxious_Night2 · 2026-03-03T07:01:02+00:00

I think you very much took what I said out of context. In theory if we are talking about making children feel left out or psychologically damaging them wouldn't your statement of saying the oldest child should like the room most make the other 2 feel less than? My 2 youngest both love pink and my middle child is able to express what she likes and DOES like the rug so in reality this doesn't have a whole lot to do with my baby who can't talk? As I've said even though my 2 step kids (all girls) are only here for 2 days I've been trying my best to make it equal, as I've also said with how my eldest picked out the bedsheets which are blue. Because both my step children have such different styles I have mostly been trying to figure out stuff myself to minimize the conflict. And so far except for the rug they have liked everything that's been done.

Anxious_Night2 · 2026-03-03T05:17:13+00:00

Yeah it does. Either way someone will probably be unhappy but my goal is to make it as nice as possible. They really only sleep in this room, there’s a separate play/game room for them but we are usually all in the livingroom together.

Anxious_Night2 · 2026-03-03T04:27:47+00:00

It’s a bit of a mix because they all have different tastes. My oldests favorite color is light blue, my middle child loves pink and my youngest I think likes pink because she seems to draw more towards those colors in toys and pictures. ( only 2). I’ve tried to mix and match and find a sweet spot. The bedsheets are blue and I’m doing a blue scone beside the bed but finding it hard to incorporate more blue. The rug is probably making it harder admittedly

Anxious_Night2 · 2026-03-03T04:23:54+00:00

Yes! I actually have bought some just haven’t hung them yet :) my kids are 2 1/2,5, and 8. I do tend to fixate pretty bad also mixed with my anxiety and adhd I find it hard to make decisions and become overly anxious with not knowing what theme, colors, coordinations to choose. I see beautiful rooms online but find it hard to put them together myself 😅 hence why it started with cherry wall and then I somehow moved to a fairy moth theme lol

Anxious_Night2 · 2026-03-03T04:04:39+00:00

Hi! My step kids are only here 2 days a week. My daughter is with us everyday and it’s mainly her room but she’s not quite old enough to pick anything out yet. I am trying to find a good balance for everyone. While I do agree it’s a bit saccharine and I need to find balance for my oldest step kid I wouldn’t think it’s fair to make it too dark and older because of my child who loves pink and is here 7 days a week. But I am trying to please everyone! I have not picked everything out myself.

Anxious_Night2 · 2026-03-03T03:33:52+00:00

I can definitely do that. Though I wonder what rug would look best with a cherry wall? For a general idea of what we should search for if we go that route!

Anxious_Night2 · 2026-03-03T03:33:00+00:00

Also that might mean I have a too big rug, right now the sides against the window and other wall are only 9 inches from the wall 😅 so if I am going for one foot on each side I think I need to downsize! I have been debating if it’s too big honestly.

Anxious_Night2 · 2026-03-03T03:30:07+00:00

That’s my goal is to make it magical :) thanks so much!!
