How do I update around this old bathtub?
Hi AT! I need some of your ideas, please. My condo's en suite bathroom is mostly original to the build - 1993. I cannot afford to do a complete reno, and will need to live with this grey-ish cream fibreglass bathtub. My budget will allow me to redo the tiles and the floor, and install a recessed light over the tub. The…

Kitchen Backsplash
We have a very rustic kitchen. Our house is an 1800's log home and we really like the old rustic style( barnwood, distressed etc). We also like the old primitive country style( ex: old coffee grinder). Can't figure out the backsplash. I cannot decide which tile would look better. I do like old primitive country farmhouse…

Carpet Beetles
I actually think these are WORSE or as bad as moths. I got married late in life and my husband insisted we live in his century old house instead of my more modern home. As my home was vacant except for all of my furniture, furnishings etc. I took a few things (clothes) and allowed my home locked but unattended, essentially…

A Fond Farewell to Our Forum
Hi everyone — we have some bittersweet news to share. We're closing the Forum at the end of the month. Two years ago, we opened this space, hoping it would become a place where people who love home could find each other. We've watched strangers help each other redesign rooms, debug IKEA hacks, and talk through decisions…

Small Seattle living room, two very different hosting needs — does a single solution even exist?
Hi everyone — finally posting because my husband and I are genuinely stuck and this community always seems to have the most creative ideas. I'm Siv, my husband Mike and I live in a tiny house. Our living room is about 15×12, which we've convinced ourselves is "cozy." In reality, it's just small, and every piece of…

Revival Rugs
I ordered 3 rugs from Revival and quickly returned 2. I thought they looked a lot better online than in person. Overall, they had a cheap feel due to low thread count and fiber content. The Tschudi rug looked good online as an entrance rug, but in reality it looked and felt like a bathroom floor mat. The Soloba rug was a…

Living room layout/rearranging
I like the 2 chairs at either side of the fireplace but the 2 couches are too long to put together. I think my only option is a new couch or just leave it as is. I will include several pictures from different places in the living room. We use all even though there’s just 2 of us. First 2 pics are older the last one is…

Need help rethinking our kitchen
Hi all, my boyfriend and I moved in together last year and we're redoing our home, one room at a time. Our kitchen, as most rentals go, needs a lot of TLC. Like, our cabinets all have 3 shelves which makes it hard to store stuff like our toaster etc. in it and that leads to clutter on the counter. I'd love some ideas on…

Challenging living room design
Hello all! I would love some advice on what to do with an odd living room space. We want seating for at least 4 people, and the only place for the TV is between the two wall openings. The aesthetic of the rest of the house is Scandinavian. Struggling with type of couch and if a sectional is best or a couch and two chairs -…

Window Covering Advise
I would appreciate some ideas for window coverings. We are in a heritage home, our dining room windows face north. The woodwork and windows are original to the home. They will not be changing, and the paint colour was recently applied. It is Benjamin Moore Wenge - I was after black, and my husband brown. Wenge was the…

Carpet/clothing moths SOS
I've been dealing with carpet moths for the last few months and have spent hours researching/trying to get rid of them. Luckily, I think I've got them under control—it seemed to be one main rug that had them—but I just came across this piece by @LizzyFrancis sharing her experience, and… 1) Lizzy, I feel for you so hard!!!…
