What do you lovely mumsnetters think?

BengalBangle · 30/10/2025 02:26

The dog matches the décor!
You've created a lovely space.

This thread has made me smile. For reasons I won’t go into I will never have my own place nor able to decorate how I would like or have a say in it. Seeing people enjoy their spaces and their creativity makes me feel really happy. So thank you.

That has made me really feel for you @Curledupball I really hope someday that you find your own sanctuary 💐

Aww it looks lovely and warm and cosy. Hopefully you’ve now found peace x

Dweetfidilove · 29/10/2025 23:08

This looks like a peaceful home.
I'll just curl up in a corner of the sofa with a cup of horlicks and doze off.

This is what I love about interiors. We get to do what WE love and create what makes US happy. I love that you love it so much that you wanted to share. Enjoy it.

Also, I over used the word love but hey! You can never have too much love in this world!

Overwhelmed with your good wishes. Love from me and my lovely rescue dog. She was abandoned from a puppy farm, when she was too worn out to breed any more. not financially ” viable” 😢 x

You are a good person with a good heart . I also took on a chucked out breeding bitch that found her way to rescue . She was my dog if a lifetime.

hattie43 · 29/10/2025 23:00

Really cosy and lovely OP a little sanctuary . I particularly like the dog snuggled . A home isn’t a home without a dog .

So cruel. But she's landed on her paws now.

The only problem is OP, it’s not going to be big enough for all of us mumsnetters who want to come and relax in your living room (and stroke your lovely dog!).

WingBingo · 29/10/2025 21:50

What a lovely thread and a lovely lounge.

babyproblems · 29/10/2025 21:44

Lovely @Catarinabella
Gorgeous pup- he/she obviously approves!
Our living room is bare plaster walls, wires and hotchpotch flooring… I really cannot wait until the DIY is done and I can finally relax!! It’s so nice to have a space you can really relax and unwind in. Enjoy! Xx

catlovingdoctor · 29/10/2025 21:40

I solo travel lots too! Im going to Oman soon for some winter sun, can't wait Xx

catlovingdoctor · 29/10/2025 21:36

Absolutely lovely! Looks beautiful and comfortable. Could we have a close up pic of your lovely doggie? 😍

ladygindiva · 29/10/2025 21:19

Love it. Especially like the autumnal shades in your cushions and throws. Very warm and inviting. You've inspired me to buy more cushions x

SeaAndStars · 29/10/2025 21:14

Ohhh cosy. I love the rug and your dear pupper of course. You have a real eye for making a place homely OP.

HaggisMcHaggisface · 29/10/2025 20:43

It looks beautiful. What a cosy, inviting haven of calm.

Nelly91 · 29/10/2025 20:38

Where have you been solo travelling, it sounds wonderful x

I can’t say how much your lovely women’s comments mean to me. Was never ever digging for compliments, that’s absolutely not me x Onwards and upwards strong women x Enjoy your space, whatever suits you and what you can make of it x Just one candle can be so good for the soul on these dark evenings xx 🕯️ xx

Yours is my dream lounge but I'm waaayyy too messy to have that shade of cream (adore your wallpaper and mirror)

It would be grubby within weeks at my house!

Looks gorgeous and I'm jealous lol

Lovely doggo-give him a squish from me

WinterFrogs · 29/10/2025 20:27
