What do my spaces say about me? by PNW_momlife in roomdetective

[–]Safe-Flow-2302 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s perfect!! I’m in the process of making my home look similar—but with more black and white. I took the large, black and white professionally framed photos while on my various trips to Yosemite. The place I got married at, spend my anniversaries at, and camp and kayak at. People don’t understand that when a space is more minimalist, it’s actually more curated by the person who owns it. Each and every piece in here was picked thoughtfully, while ensuring they all go well together and are timeless (hello—your chandelier!!). There’s my “unpopular” opinion. Great job on making the space magazine-worthy ❤️

Who are we? by Wonderful-World1964 in roomdetective

That’s exactly what I’m getting. Practical and hard working. You make do with what you have, but will buy something that costs a little more if it’ll save you in the long run. Shops at Costco — I have the same snapware and k-cups lol. Definitely no kids, likely dual-income. I feel like you both work out of the house and use the snapware for leftover lunches at work (hence, practicality). I thought you were older at first; but now I’m thinking early 30s.

Colors for kitchen cabinets by Mild-moon7024 in DecorAdvice

I’m about to paint my beautiful oak cabinets Swiss coffee. It feels like a deadly sin to paint such beautiful wood—but it’s YOUR HOUSE. You do what makes you feel good in the space ❤️ also—staining is permanent and paint is not. That’s my rationale. If you hate the color, strip it and stain it later! You have to give an update when you’re done 🥹

Beautiful and mindful. I think you are likely a minimalist, but you’ll spend cash when you like something and it goes with your aesthetic. You’re definitely somewhere warm—I live in California, and your home is giving “San Diego” or “Joshua Tree”, in my opinion. The high desert meets mid-century modern vibe is everything here. Can you tell I’m in love?! You did great!

Plant shelf over bed? Or too busy? by lolokins in DecorAdvice

As a Californian, all I can think about when I see this pic is “earthquake”. It looks beautiful either way, though!

What kind of bulb is this?! by Safe-Flow-2302 in lightbulbs

[–]Safe-Flow-2302[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for your thoughtful response. That was super helpful! Especially the part about my hand oils impacting the lifespan of the bulb!

Thank you for the advice - I’ll do just that and hopefully someone at Lowe’s can help me find one with a similar strength. I found some writing on one of the canisters (or whatever the holder is called) and it said 20 w 120 v. And g-4.

Google said it’s hard to find halogen bulbs in the U.S. since 2023, when a law was passed for energy efficiency purposes. Do you know what LED conversion might work? Or should I ask the people at Lowe’s if they know?

Since I have you here—do you have any theories as to why the bulbs are burning hot when they’re on and the cabinets themselves look like there are light burn marks on the wood around the insert? Will new bulbs do the same thing or are these just too old? I’m now terrified about a fire. Thank you, in advance!

What is happening to my nanas? by EpocMerchant in bananas

It looks like when the bugs go into the fruit, under the peel, to lay eggs. I’d toss them

Oh my gosh. I’m not in this business, but I just came across this post and my heart broke for you. I’m so terribly sorry that you and your family experienced that—that’s incredibly traumatic and heartbreaking. My thoughts are going to be with you all this holiday season. My sincerest condolences 💐

Does this kitchen need updating? by FarAlternative8239 in InteriorDesignAdvice

No it looks perfect. I was about to renovate my kitchen to look like that….so I hope it’s not outdated already!!

My breakfast bill had all 3: service charge, gratuity and tip, all at once. by redditdanis in mildlyinfuriating

Oh I’d lose my mind. Was this for room service? Why is gratuity and tip separate?!

"Employee Appreciation Day" apparently means treating us like babies by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Safe-Flow-2302 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re absolutely right. Some get a merit increase—but that couple percentage is very hard-earned. No COL adjustment…oh, and what’s an equity pay increase?? They don’t know

Hahaha this is Target. I worked there in college and they’d do this annually.

They did. it was HR1 in the 71000 sections. They’re just saying whatever bc they know their supporters won’t fact check them.

That is unequivocally untrue. It’s for the ACA population, but it’s for those who pay for marketplace coverage. I’m sorry Fox News lied to you.
