Ha! Best described as “Off the curb, third year college student, with dog embellishments.”

Mine would be 50 shades of grey. Grey kitchen, grey living room, grey bedroom, grey carpet, grey curtains.

That is Mrs Squeeky’s department but I will say bright yet cozy.

Comfortable.

Too cluttered right now. I need more space.

I just moved. My decor is “boxes and other items clogging the place”. Except for four functional places – kitchen, desk, bed, bathroom.

So I am thinking about how to proceed. It’s a 1970s apartment with lotsa recent beige carpet. The kitchen and bathroom have green tile and green countertops. I already had a green rug runner for the hall and matching green rugs for the bathroom and kitchen.

So I’m thinking green. Go green crazy.

Decor is Art Museum Gift Shop, several pieces of blown glass, paintings, antiques, ceramics (some I did in 1965), stain glass and musical instruments. Some of the furniture includes side chairs from 1890s.

I hope they were warm and welcoming and comfortable. I had a lot of vintage furniture. My last acquisition was a pair of roosters that belonged to Rick’s mom. They’re made out of dried corn and beans. Just guessing they were made in the 30s or 40s. They hung in my kitchen.

A craftsman style table, a mid mod chair, and a twenties era tea cart walk into a bar…

Bland, with a few individual touches.

Comfortable, practical, too many things useful things. Kitchen is light blue with one wall completely covered with maps. The rest of the house is Dover white.
Right now there is an electrical experiment running in the kitchen because I needed a place with power, ethernet and an unobstructed view of the geostationary satellite belt.
It is messy but clean.

I would love to see your house @LuckyGuy!

I’d say the decor is farmhouse with a few pieces that are antique. I wish my house was larger because I have a lot of stuff and not a lot of space.

I just had the bathroom redone a little more than a year ago and so the bathroom is like a spa, with beautiful porcelain tile and a huge vanity. The bathroom is the most luxurious room in the house.

And I have 2 of these. They make a bathroom really classy. :-)
@jca2 You have to get one to go along with the new bathroom!
