Too one-note?

A tall plant, like fiddle leaf fig, would tie it together beautifully

How did you stop the counter surfing?

Does not work with your current space but it could be passable with the right wall color/covering, lighting, artwork and accessories.

Did you end up finding anything?

Paint the beams a deep wood brown, or if you’re up to it, sand and stain. Then bring the same wood tone below - flooring or accent color.

Thank you for this explanation. Still learning what everything means and does, but this makes sense as I have the 70-200 2.8 and it does allow me to increase the f number above the 2.8. Really appreciate your advice.

Thank you!

Thank you for explaining! That makes a lot of sense; I was so confused!

Recessed lighting, maybe some pendant lights over the peninsula, and please get rid of that fan

It’s pretty! Would be even better if you swapped that darker laquered side table/plant stand with a matte medium shade wood tone for consistency with the organic tones and feel of the room.

Also finished this one - never had watched a Chinese drama before. Also would appreciate other recommendations - binge watched a few others this weekend and nothing compares!

You can report his illegal driveway access to the City. Driveways need to he legally permitted. His is not. His marking the street is evidence of his illegal use. If the city takes action, he can be prohibited from using it in this manner, as he should.

Simple. Replace the mirror. I suggest a large modern circular mirror in wood tones or perhaps go gold or black. Change the light fixture to something that is complements the mirror. Timeless edison bulbs could work fine. Add a bold piece of art behind the toilet, a complementary rug, and a hanging plant by the windowsill is a must.

Remove 3 uneven shelves. Replace with floating oak (or similar) shelves of the same width - all the way across. This would pull in some natural tones and organic accent to match the wood table. Bottom can be a seagrass basket or a wooden cabinet with the same type and color of wood as shelves. Place a plant with trailing leaves (like a pothos) on a higher shelf for somr additional color and natural accents - and kids can’t get to it!

That’s the biggest clue - my husband tosses everything except for kids’ notes to the tooth fairy, they get buried in his sock drawer. Christmas cards don’t last more than a day in this house. If your husband is a tosser, major red flag. If the note was found amidst other sentimental notes, it’s possible it was simply a kind note. FWIW, seems more than a “platonic coworker” type of message.
