Great job! It's the little things that really gets on our nerves but what a big improvement!

I don't have a bedside table but I have a bedside stool. It doubles as a step-stool to get stuff from a high shelf.

It's not for everyone, but I would have left the ceiling white.

OMG...thank you for sharing http://unfuckyourhabitat.tumblr.com...I think I have a case of inattentive ADHD when it comes to housework.

I will always love "Keep Calm and Carry On" and its millions of spin-offs. I just pinned Keep Calm and Make It Work a la Tim Gunn :P

But the radio/MTV overplaying popular songs really spoils it for me. I actually liked Britney's Baby One More Time when I first heard it on MTV, but by the end of the week, I hate it. That said, I dun watch MTV or listen to mainstream radio anymore.

But I think some things just go with age. I go to my Pinterest boards and delete pins from time to time, because I dun like them anymore.

Remove the mirrors behind that corner shelf. Paint the walls a medium grey. And depending on how much light you would like in your living room, choose white + darker grey or white + red (to match EAT and shopping cart) curtains. To make it look sharper, I would paint the shelves, above and below the TV, black.

I would have just changed the patio furniture to wood, add some bright blue or red cushions and a couple of potted flowering plants lining the pillars to the left.

But this does look warmer, good job.

The lighting is a little harsh. You can consider getting eco-friendly bulbs and at a lower wattage.

And I spotted this picture with similar cabinets + countertop + flooring. Not sure if it will work though. http://www.bhg.com/bathroom/color-schemes/colors/bathroom-color-ideas/#page=18

Just looking at this picture...yeah I'm not into karate-chop cushions. But also, if I have to move more than 2 cushions to sit on a sofa, it's way too many cushions. I also do not like all-glass display cabinets. Maybe one is fine if you collect transformers figurines or something, but more than that, I fear I'll break it just being in the same room. I also can't stand fake flowers. My mum is crazy about them and I have to put with it; my living room and kitchen look like a columbarium :(

I would place the bed at an angle, on the left. The head of the bed, preferably with a high headboard, will be to the extreme left of the narrow wall, and the foot at the start of the curve. You can put a plant or shelves at the corner behind the headboard, or store suitcases. In front of the bed, at the curve, place a round table and seating. You can have your home office or a more formal dining area in the kitchen. So when you step in, it looks big and spacious. I would prob place the TV either beside the big closet or at the wall adjacent to the big closet, depending which one has less reflection. Seating can be a 2-seater and a couple of armchairs. Keep coffee tables small, so it's easy to move around as you deem fit.
