you are so right//

I love the wall color. I think it’s very pretty.

I love the paint, it's a kind of buttery color, very warm and cosy. I think a whiter color would look cheap, cold.

Hi Margaret! I love your little apartment and I’m looking forward to your organizing and decorating videos. I’m amazed that I LOVE the yellow walls because I am not a big fan of yellow. It seems to make the room cozier. If it were me, I would definitely leave it yellow! ❤️

Ah, yes. The joys of living in Portland (former West Ender). Finding a parking space, WINTER parking bans, & costly trash bags. On the plus side, there's fall, spring, summer, & beautiful branches when winter comes. In other words, TOTALLY worth any inconvenience. And there may be one or two great places to eat (LOL).

Step by step, it just takes time! It’ll be so nice when you’re finished ❤️

Hi Margaret, For now why don't you put your toiletries into oblong baskets and place them on those shelves in your bedroom. You can grab the one you need and just take it into the bathroom. It could work for bathroom storage for the time being.

I ordered a storage rack to go above the toilet in the bathroom so I’m just waiting for that to come in!

I like the yellow. Good job on the painting.

Ohhhh that's one of things i miss about going to Portland daily-- Trader Joe's and whole foods too!! Love the paint color, it adds a nice glow!! Loving the big windows for natural light!!❤

You need Valspar Antique White for the walls. It's just slightly off white and looks lovely with white trim.

Thank you!! I’ve been looking at so many different white paints I’m driving myself crazy I’ll have to look at that one

The wall color i so pretty. It make the room look very upscale

I'll take an olive pizza any day!!🫒🫒

I liked the other wall color not that you asked. It definitely is yellow.

i wish you lots of luck in your new home/go slow/take time to smell the roses/

I liked the blue- very calming- but the yellow could be very energizing in the morning. Probably shows more yellow cause u painted over the blue without a primer. Maybe a coat of brighter white to tone down the yellow a little?

My suggestion is to center the rug between the dark wood borders. Yes, the paint looks yellow but the price was right!

Margaret/I think you have a great mom/amen for her/you have no clue/what a sweet lady/my mom is sick in bed with cancer as we speak/its so very sad/

Maybe put the bed on the opposite wall? Looking forward to your organizations journey. Mom’s are the best!

If those floors are real hardwood (they are beautiful) be careful putting water on them. Love your apt.

Love your apt do have a dollar tree provenance Rhode Island when I move into my new apartment thank God for dollar tree in general Dollar because I bought some of my utensils and a pizza pan there but I love your apartment

Wait on the paint color until you get your other decor Situated

The other wall colour was very nice …..however your new paint is fresh and you should be able to see a vision for your decor

The rug needs to inside the border on the floor

Yep! Just can’t move it on my own so I have to wait until someone can help me

I like the wall color. More apartment content but no Instagram or TicToc!

I'm surprised your landlord will let you paint. I'm a landlord and it's in the lease, tenants are not allowed to paint without written permission and agreement on the color. I think a corner unit, designed for showers/tubs, would work for the products and get them off the floor. It's such a nice apartment, love how spacious it is and the original features.

I always check in with landlords before painting!

I’m very lucky with my landlord. He says it’s my home and I can decorate it however I want. I’m a great tenant and he trusts me to take good care of his property.

Be careful drilling anything into that wall, there are probably water pipes in there.
