Decorating Ideas That Won’t Send Your Guy Running
What guy would want to step foot in a home that’s oozing with a big aura of estrogen? Exactly. While decorating should definitely be in line with your personal taste, when you move in with your man, there are a few pointers you should always keep in mind. Follow these ideas to keep both you and your s.o. satisfied in your space!
The trick here is to choose unisex colors that can appeal to both you and your dude. For the bedroom, for instance, try pairing black-and-white sheets with a red comforter like this Solid Red Comforter ($19.99-$34.99) from Target .

Post a CommentI resisted the urge to add fushia feather boa to my zebra print lamp shades in my bedroom (my place, we don’t live together!!)…that’s progress……until I change my mind! lol some good points to ponder however….
Always better to decide together. My boyfriend and I moved into a new house (both coming from our own places) We decided to take only a few things from our places and start over with the rest. It worked out perfectly. We both love it
Oh, that serving cart is stylish! Reminds me a little of my grandmother’s old tea service cart, but with just a little bit of a hipper edge. Still got some old-fashioned charm, but the kind that would be perfect for a Nick&Nora Charles bash as well as a refined ladies’ luncheon.
a bit more design on the comforter would be better.
We make decorating decisions together. It’s easy because I like clean lines and steer clear of floral decorations.
As long as whatever I brink in the house is not BRIGHT PINK, My beau doesn’t care. I try my best to get colors that aren’t sex bias, but I can be bias. Therefore I might get “bright blue” or “lavender” or “orange”! hehehaha!
I like the comforter.
Good compromise.
My guy use to kick off the pink comforter I had. Not sure if he did it consciously or unconsciously. I always thought it was cute when I woke up and it was either on the floor or just pushed over to my side of the bed.
eh ok
reasonable
