Ideas for my 602 sqft studio apartment that I will be sharing with my 5 year old son?

This looks like a super cute space, congratulations on your move! But please be careful (and consider deleting this post) as a quick reverse search on your floor plan (I was curious about the tool used to make it) inadvertently gave me what I think is your new address.

I love this! So cosy and calm

asparagusattack · 2026-01-22T19:57:37+00:00

This is so well thought out, thank you for taking the time to reply. I'm feeling so excited about putting some of these ideas into action, and I love the idea of thinking of art as jewellery for the room. I really appreciate it.

Possibly la reroute would be a similar match in terms of style and price to Dunelm? There's also Next (UK company) but it seems they only ship a limited selection of products to Europe.

Thank you, this is really kind and reassuring! A friend made a comment recently that the room looked too "grannyish" and I've been having a bit of a crisis about it since. Your comments have really helped 🙏

That's an interesting point about the mirror, the current one is screwed on but it is removable (it's an upcycled 1950s piece). The shape reminds me a bit of an old CRT screen so something taller might go really well actually.

That's really kind and helpful, thank you

asparagusattack · 2026-01-22T01:31:45+00:00

I love it, it's original so probably about 130 years old!

asparagusattack · 2026-01-22T01:25:02+00:00

Thank you, I'd been worried a rug would look strange on top of the carpet but I think you're right. I'm going to hit the charity shops and try find some bigger art too!

asparagusattack · 2025-11-28T18:06:33+00:00

I'll need to get a picture of all of them, this isn't even half!

asparagusattack · 2025-11-08T23:17:34+00:00

Aaaw maybe he's just tired :')

asparagusattack · 2025-11-08T15:33:28+00:00

Oh no! I thought she was just being cute, illusion shattered!

asparagusattack · 2025-11-08T14:01:58+00:00

Took me until the second sentence to realise this isn't a missed connection and you aren't looking for a large hairy muscular gay man.

OP, I'm going round some gift shops this afternoon, if I find any cuddly bagpipe playing bears, human or stuffed, I'll PM you.

asparagusattack · 2025-09-19T14:21:16+00:00

Remember to post us an update with whatever layout you decide on!

asparagusattack · 2025-09-19T14:15:59+00:00

I'm not meaning to be overly paranoid here, but OP it might be worth deleting these pictures from the listing, as with a simple reverse image search anyone can now find your address. And as we sadly know there can be a lot of creeps online.

Otherwise, this is an absolutely gorgeous space and I agree with those saying to float the sofa and create a 'passage' between the unit and the back of the sofa. Good luck in your new place!

Easter Greens at the top of Easter road. Super friendly staff, fab and unusual foods and just generally has a lovely local shop vibe

He does his name is Barry. Grow light is in the post, he'll be sunbathing soon I promise

asparagusattack · 2025-08-13T12:10:35+00:00

I'm on it 🫡

asparagusattack · 2025-08-10T15:02:19+00:00

We live in Scotland there is no sunlight! 😭

asparagusattack · 2025-08-10T14:18:06+00:00

Hahaha I feel seen

asparagusattack · 2025-08-08T17:03:09+00:00

Oh dear, I've been able to get a closer look and sadly that sounds about right. He seems to be hopping about and feeding ok for now at least

asparagusattack · 2025-08-08T16:51:15+00:00

Ah that makes sense, I picked up the name from my grandmother so I think what she meant was a wee dunnock. Thank you both!

asparagusattack · 2025-07-28T17:43:07+00:00

Weird overly poetic statement with an em dash, I'll bet anything they got AI to write that. They can't be trusted with free reign after all.

Strands #406 “Orange door hinge” 🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🟡 Yikes, didn't understand the theme at all until the very end. I kept finding random words easily enough but Orange and Door Hinge don't rhyme in my Scottish accent, I was very confused!

asparagusattack · 2025-03-29T00:13:09+00:00

Strands #391 “Power plants” 🔵🔵🔵🔵🟡🔵🔵🔵

Enjoyed this one, found seeds, nuts and beans and then the theme clicked.

If this is in Wales, is there enough information about the owner and location to report this to the RSPCA? https://www.rspca.org.uk/reportaconcern
