It’s soooo bland. I know the maximalist trend is overdone but it suits a period property much better more than what’s she done. Everything she’s done so far looks too big or too small (plus she’s ripped a fireplace out of the kitchen too, I see). She obviously has no idea about interior design because you can’t just transplant your signature style from one property to the next unless you know what you’re doing. Painting everything beige and putting modern features in a period property is what a house flipper does. I’m not saying absolutely everything should be period appropriate but imo, she should have worked with the features of the house, rather than trying to erase them entirely. That’s what a lot of people did in the 60’s/70’s with houses built pre war and we’re now everyone spending money trying to restore the original features. If she wanted to live in a soulless box, buy a new build or build it yourself.

I might be in the minority but I liked what she did with her last house, but this one is just blah. I can see the look she’s going for, but she’s just missing the mark. The mirror on the wall above the fire in the dining room (?) is foul too.
And the conference room dining table. 🫣
 
I liked how she said she couldn’t be bothered to tidy up and the only thing that’s out of place is the kids play gym. When my kids were that age, the living room always looked like a bomb had exploded in Santa’s grotto.

on the plus side, at least the toy was colourful and not colour coded in tasteful shades of beige but the room looks like the waiting area at the Doctors.
 
Nothing pisses me off more than seeing people who could easily afford these trips being gifted them yet poor underprivileged children who have nothing get nothing . This doesn’t inspire me to visit as lovely as it is it makes me very very angry as the people who don’t need it get these trips .. it’s ethically so wrong
And with a 1 year old that can’t even appreciate it.
 
What an ugly living room. I've seen more attractive GP waiting rooms then this.

Says a poll is too overwhelming, does a poll a few stories after 🤦‍♀️

This is like when she got the crib built all over again, style over everything else

Wonder if she still uses that? Think she got it before she realised that some of the functional features on cots are important.

I don’t understand the great shelf debate. I didn’t take her for one of those beige/grey robots who ‘style’ their shelves with an odd number of colour zoned items, sorry ‘object.’ It looks wank Chels.
