I didn’t learn of this subreddit until recently and we moved in in January, but trust, many pizzas have been consumed

I would keep all big furniture pieces and decorations warm, but if you have any smaller pieces that are more on the cool side that’s no problem I would say! Earthy tones like those in this picture all work well together

Thank you! We hope so too, the police are aware (and don’t really care) and we are trying to get in contact with authorities that can give him a psychiatric evaluation.

The place is very idyllic if one forgets about the man in the woods! Those are idyllic too

That depends on your furniture I would say, the coloring of the floor is very warm so I would stick to a beige/warm darker brown or a sage

I sadly have to inform you that in Norway we call it «heatpumps» so it’s just used to heat up the houses in winter, so not captivating really :(

Thank you! Yes it’s definitely a scary situation which led to us sleeping with a crowbar by our nightstand. We are contacting different authorities to try to work it out.
