From the photos, it looks like there might be a conflict going on between the pattern of the shower curtain and the marbling of the countertop surface and floors. Maybe a shower curtain with more of a woven or textile look while be more complementary.

I like that plum color, but it doesn't seem to work with the shower curtain and pulls my eyes straight to the floor. Even going "matchy-matchy" with a different shower curtain with a creme background and a giant block of plum can help (kind of a specific design, so that's something i would sew, if it were my apartment). that green and plum can be pleasant together, but without the curtain...hmmm.

I feel like we're being dissed a bit for thrift store shopping...the thing is that we put this apartment together on a shoe string budget....not out of a Sally Ann/Salvation Army aesthetic, but out of a desire to build an apartment we love that is also within our means. and if we had the money to buy high-end furniture, we would still heavily re-use/recycle because it reduces waste and is ecologically sensible.

I understand that some of our design choices ain't everyone's thang, but come on...give me a break on the thrift store thing. we make do with the resources we have, and are thrilled with the quirkiness and hominess of our crib.

but really, i do appreciate all the advice and encouragement. especially the "monster eyes" comment. our monster doesn't help with the rent, but he's furry, loves carrots, and thinks you should vote insta-finalist!
