Today I am continuing on from my last video. My new couch and rug arrived. I hate the rug. It photographs well but in real life its so bright. I also did an amazon home order of some new things to help set up my apartment. Also finishing off the wardrobe organization. #apartmentdecoratingideas #amazonfinds #amazonhome #homedecor #organizedhome Setting up my apartment! Amazon Home Unboxing! NEW couch & Rug!

Carpet…the 9 ft. edge was in the right direction. Your whole sofa width fit on it well. You want at least the front feet of all seating to be sitting on the carpet. Even front feet of end tables on it too if you add those on one or both sides of the sofa, so pretty wide. 8 x 10 is usually a MINIMUM size carpet for ANY living room conversation zone and can move with you to pretty much any space. But 9 x 12 ft. is even nicer if your room is big enough. The rule is…the bigger the carpet the bigger your ROOM feels. It can go right up to the walls parallel to your sofa, no problem. Designer for 25 years here. And…hang your curtains as high as you can (get longer curtains so you can) and the rod wider than the window. High and wide so windows look as big as possible and curtains can stack back sitting on the wall and not covering the window. 😊

Love the couch. Its a pretty rug, but I think your style is a bit more muted. That's not a super colourful rug, IMO, but it is a very busy print. Don't forget that you have dark grey cabinets, which do make things look darker, so some colour may not be so bad. However, less pattern, maybe calmer. None of my business, but I'm so excited to see all the new changes! So happy for you. 🙂

Do not go smaller on the rug, if anything, go bigger! A small rug in a large area will only make the space look smaller. You could either do an 8x10 and have it the way you were showing us, or a rug the same size as the one you got with the same original placement and then you can add a thin smaller rug on the end to do a layering look. Also, once you get the furniture for the tv, it’ll fill the space more and you’ll have a better sense of what it’ll look like.

Just a thought. I think the couch looks great but part of the awkwardness comes from squeezing it into a corner and away from the wall, making the room look both cramped and ungrounded. It also creates a too-big travel path. I get wanting to use the quirky corner space next to the pillar, but I think the current sofa placement just draws attention to it. I know you wanted a shelf at the back of the sofa, etc. but I really think that moving the sofa away from the windows and up against the wall will allow you to have a more coherent, cosy space that will also feel way bigger (and will also mean the larger rugs fit perfectly.) The freed-up corner would be great for a big plant or a tall reading lamp.

@@rachelleeaUrgh. That's a pain. I now get why you want to push the sofa into a corner and keep a rectangular living room so everything stays symmetrical. If you do find that doesn't work, or makes everything too small, though, another option would be to opt for a corner media unit and then place an ottoman or seat or tall plant next to it, to create a separation from the doors. That might mean keeping the smaller sized of rug, though. Having just finished furnishing a home with a very awkward layout, I suggest stacking any empty cardboard boxes and using them as stand-ins for furniture to see what works. Looks ridiculous as a process but really helped me work out what felt right before I bought new pieces. It really is a beautiful flat. Congratulations on the move.

I don’t feel it goes with a white couch-it has tan/cream in it vs true white which the couch is showing up as on screen. Also, I believe in water filtration. Here in Colorado we had instances of cancer from PFC’s in water (from Air Force fire fighting foam on base that reached far from the original location) , better safe than sorry. On the East Coast illegal dumping of chemicals happens into the Atlantic.

Your apartment is so cute. The only thing I would do different is put the couch in the indented wall or move the couch where you would put your tv and then get a wall unit for the indented wall where you have the couch now. But you have such a creative eye that you will see what is right for you. Enjoy decorating.

Definitely a bigger rug !

Slightly bigger rug is better but place it the first way you had it. I prefer to stay away from the patterns as your taste can change. I have the Vindum rug (white/grey) rug from IKEA. Had it for years and it goes with everything. I’ve changed up my spaces so many times and this rug always fits into the new style 🌸💖 I’m enjoying seeing the apartment come together

Either keep the size you have now - once you have some kind of console/media cabinet on the other side it will look fine - or 8x10 rug and keep the original orientation. You can shift the couch over a foot or so to keep it centred with the rug and maybe put a side table between the couch and window? You definitely don't want to go any smaller than the size you have now.

Also (it’s a waste of a filter) I wondered if the filters did anything so I tested it with vodka, you can use your britta to filter vodka and it’s so smooth to drink, but you can’t use the same filter for water and alcohol

Don’t go smaller for the rug! You definitely want at least the front feet of your sofa on the rug - but agree to change for something more muted! Is it possible to put the sofa in that little alcove? It would possibly make the rug situation easier to work with if the sofa was tucked in there, and allow room on the window side for a small occasional chair

Product colors are so influenced by lighting that you don't get the true color until you can see it in person. I think the size is good but I would slide more of it under the sofa and have the sofa centered on the rug from left to right. For me, the sofa would look better moved into the existing niche rather than near the window. I do think a patterned rug with some color is the way to go but definitely more muted than the first pick. You are making great progress.

Currently, I have a water filter in my refrigerator, but in the past, I have rented a water dispenser from Costco and then they deliver 5 gallon water jugs on a biweekly basis. I just got sick of filling the Brita several times a day. I am currently thinking of getting an under sink water filter by radiant life. It’s pretty inexpensive and then you could just drink the water out of the sink faucet. BTW, I live about 5 miles north of DC and if your water is anything like mine you will want a shower filter I just have one from Amazon that attaches but looking at the full showerhead filter from Canopy.

I think your rug size is fine, and the way you had it oriented the first time is good, but that particular rug is a no (IMO, it doesn't look that muted on-screen, though it does look more so than the same pattern on Anthropologie by comparison). I think one in a more subtle pattern in a neutral will work better for you, and then you can introduce shots of colour with throw pillows/cushions or a blanket.

Go bigger with the rug, 8x10 and have pattern running toward the front of the couch. If it’s too small it will look off. General rule of thumb is all front legs of sofa should be on rug at a bare minimum.The way you originally placed it the pattern was running sideways, looked off, you didn’t get full effect of pattern.

Rug size and placement is fine. Your TV stand should just be on the floor, not on the rug at all. Don't get a bigger one, it'll overwhelm the room.

On looking at the rug under your lounge suite I do agree it is very colourful and you do need t go one size up. If you put a table next to the couch it will wobble as there is not enough room on the side for one. Just a suggestion don’t move the couch right against the window wall . Your couch will get dirty if there is any condensation in winter or if you leave your window open in summer and it rains in

Thanks for the tips 💛 I was thinking against the window was not the move, so thanks 💛🩵

@@rachelleea it is only a pleasure. Is your space between the cupboard and the kitchen cupboard big enough for a side table on each side of the couch? It will be less expensive till you get a coffee table.

If you haven’t already gotten that dresser, I’m not sure if it was the way we put it together, but we DO NOT like that dresser from amazon. The dresser drawers fall allllll the time it’s so annoying.

Personally I think the rug is lovely! But yes, I think a bigger one would look better. Place it halvway under your coach. Like the front legs are on the rug and a bit more of the coach.

I think the rug size is okay, it just needs to go under the couch more!

Would you consider getting some shelving unit(s) from Ikea to you can place your folded clothing?

You need a bigger rug, it should go under the majority of the sofa and anchor the space. I’d go with a more muted rug as the bright colors will make it more difficult to add other items.

That’s what I was thinking, sadly the 6ft of this rug doesn’t go too far under the couch.
