Sorry for double posting but look. The room was about FIFTY times prettier before than after. Painting the fireplace white would help it tie in a bit better ??

Looks awful in that colour
Oh that room ?. Hopefully it will look better in the morning. I thought it looked fine before, bit old fashioned but she’d only just moved in. I’m not sure how Lily Pebbles turned into a F&B guru but she’d have been wise to follow some of her tips. Hopefully it looks better than the Frugality’s paint jobs which when you zoom in - yikes, patchy as hell.
Yes, Desenio - surely at some point we get to share the MELDRUM10 spon code to get 10% off which must surely be in the offing?

the Room is far too dark, on this occasion Mrs M has gone too edgy.
I agree, it’s going to be tricky. I don’t think she’s thought this one through, although I’m sure we’ll be told she’s ‘embracing’ the dark Scottish winter and it ‘makes the art work pop’. I’ve seen a few interior bloggers who went down the dark route say they hated it, the rooms depressed them and they have repainted it light. But hey, it’s all content.
She’d have beeen better with a warmer dark green/or red, at least it would feel more traditional and cosy, or just one wall and paint the fireplace white. I agree it would be a shame and a massive job to paint all the woodwork white, im sure in real life it’s probably not as ???? is she wants traditional then she needs nice tartan throws, a bigger coffee table ( again they were greedy, instead of just having say bedroom furniture from Oak furniture, they’ve kitted the entire house out and it looks awful) I’d say leather sofas and not the grey ones. They might be planning on doing that to be fair and they have only just moved, but I do agree...Edgy has gone over the Edge....and not in a good way!!! ?
The gifted oak furniture land stuff doesn’t go at all. It would look better if the furniture was all wood rather than half painted.
I think that here in Scotland we are better looking to Nordic colours as our light is similar.
I wonder if she will like it so much in spring and summer when “cosy” is not what she wants?

Don’t worry Lee’s Mum will be on hand to paint it back if Lady M doesn’t like it
Where can I watch this room reveal?!?thanks
Hague blue looks amazing in rooms with bay windows and high ceilings. The ceilings look lower already in the picture she put up I think going down a Scandi route would have been a better look too but wouldn’t have gone with the furniture. The windows are lovely. Maybe it looks better from a different angle. It’s hard when you move into a new house and want to experiment with different looks but can’t help feeling they rushed into this.
I’m not sure it’s on YouTube I just went by the picture some one posted here. I think she may have posted it on instaWhere can I watch this room reveal?!?thanks
Thank you ?
Yep she's out edged herself paining the lounge a really common and popular colour.
She'll be doing spons really bright light bulbs soon, will need lights on all the time
I think a plum or burnt red with maybe light kaiki or greens would have gone lovely.
Seen it in a few local gastro pubs and small coffee chain called coffee 1.
Re wood work well we all know she likes orange.
Agreed the furniture is such an awful mismatch.
What she doesnt understand is the 2 looks she and in the snug and living room in old house doesnt work in the new house at all.
The lighting/ proportions/ shape and layout are different.
Her family room appears be very large l shape.
The dream lounge now looks too dark.
Its an expensive mistake if she regrets it 1 ir 2 walls would have been enough
The sofa and that coffee table dont quite work.
She has obligatory tray with candle and fake flowers in vase.
Reb still loves her stags
If she puts up free prints in the lounge then they have no taste.
They only seem fit for a kids room or a study.
God the office makeover will be painful.
Issue with reb is shes always way behind the times.
She sees a number of trends on insta and is trying to embrace them all.
Example the mirrors either side of her bed.
Surprised shes not having a dressing room with ensuite for her to do her inspiring beauty and fashion content.
She acts like the girls rooms are best thing slices bread.
The malm doesnt go well with safayas bed.
Poppys room seems untouched
Too much oak furniture spaced out around the house yes fills a gap reb but doesnt quite work.
Least Katie ellision and kate murnane carefully plan every unique peice.
What impressed me is kate murnane dad made her sons bed.
Reb keeps saying she traditional but she really likes modern.
She even admitted those sofas were not very comfy and dident they spend most of their time in snug at old house.
She never thinks if practical things.
She wanted a real fire now she hates it.
That kitchens cost a fortune to replace
That garden will drive lee mad trying to maintain it. Its only purpose is posy bbqs and get the kids out of her way.
Anyone reckon utility not shown not because respect or what happened but because it's truly ugly.

She needed to add gold coloured furniture (coffee table etc) something more delicate, to the room and take away the blush pink and add mustard or gold accessories and take away all the clutter beside the fire and change ceiling light for something more statement. Just noticed 2 pics above sofa. Should be 3. 2 looks odd. And that grey sofa looks pale for the room. For my lounge etc I had mood boards with different fabrics etc colours and textures and took me months to plan out.
What are those awful things behind sofa mirrors or modern art.
The table and tv table look daft with dark wood.
Yes shes not the most tidy.
Shes always so desperate to show off and posts too soon.
She’s not that edgy??that will never happen!! Unless of course she pops along here and read all this, the same woman that said we a bunch of cowards behind a computer but she doesn’t have the balls hersef to say it’s her commenting!!! I have seen and actually have liked so many youtubers that have moved because they do have beautiful houses, was expecting the same with this two but was utterly disappointed!!!!! Their old house looked and worked so much better!! This one for a young family as a funny layout that doesn’t work, don’t like where the kitchen is, it’s just odd!!
Those seem to be the spon-not-spon Desenio prints from what one eagle eyed follower has identified.
