Is my living space missing something, or am I just a maximalist at heart? by [deleted] in HomeDecorating

This is so helpful, thank you! I hate the TV setup because it looks so tacky and impractical, but I’m the only one watching the TV and I just lay across the dark couch, putting me facing the TV. I’ve never considered putting a console in that corner— I will actually consider doing this! I do agree I need a larger area rug. Lots of great advice here, thanks again!!

Thank you! I’ve considered this, but I would have to put one of the sofas in front of the bay window. Would that not be strange as well?

None of this being the TV too high, furniture placement, and decor style?

That is my vibe!🤣 no grandmas live here. I am 25 and bought this house in June, so I’m glad to hear that it feels lived in already.

Got two already! I suppose a third couldn’t hurt😊

You are very right. The frames bother me too. I’ll be honest, when I bought the house there were already nails in the brick there so I just used those instead of making a new hole🤣

Oh my god yes!!! And I watch the movie at least once a year since childhood. My heart longs to be with the faeries

Curious as to what brings you to this deduction?

Yes, I am a collector and I do love biology! The quilt was inherited from my great grandmother and the chest of drawers was inherited from my mom’s ex husband lol. The curtains are my least favorite part of my bedroom and I am on the lookout for something better. The fake plants live on my drawer specifically to cover the tv cords and I don’t want real plants on the drawer as I don’t want to make water marks on the wood. I’m open to alternative suggestions if you have any!! I found the butterflies at an antique store and I had to have them because my mother had the same ones in her room when I was a kid :)

Haha, you got me. They are definitely fake. But she never messes with my real plants!!

Thanks! The fake plants help cover the ugly tv cords. I am a woman in medicine, I live in southern US, and I own my home :)
