6 years agoHey Rachel! You have a myriad of options - a photo wall, a more elaborate dresser, a bigger mirror or even a mask formation to join that mask (just kidding).
You may wish to consider a chic painted decorative wall to greet you when you get home:

Curtain help, what sort of material and colour should I choose ?
Comments (7)What a great room! If you enjoy the general Monochromatic feel of your room I'd go with white or silver (see 'option2' photo) and let your accent pillows do the accenting! The blue hue on the wall actually simplifies your color options. Either pull that color in through a patterned application as mentioned above (see 'option1' photo) or just stick to silver/white.

Comments (2)Photos didn't attach. Mint is a horrible colour (IMHO) and I have it in spades in my rental. I've ignored it and accented the way I want. It seems to have calmed down since I started using bold colours like red (rugs) and orange (painted cafe street scene). The light in my place is quite warm...so I've been having fun by ignoring the mint. Colours like burnt sienna and many forms of orange seem to work well with mint. Photos would help....See MoreNeed door ideas for kitchen entrance!
Comments (2)Depend on what you prefer. Do you want to "hide" the kitchen when you have guest or dun want to aircon the kitchen area when you switch on your airconditioning in the living room? Because you have a L-shape ledge near the door, I think the best option would be sliding door, either glass or wood type. If you are into country, then a barn door design may be good too....See MoreHow can I spice up my boring balcony?
Comments (8)Artificial turf! The green (they come in different colours, too, if you'd like to be psychedelic) adds a lively pop of colour to a blah space, and they're designed in easy-to-install tile-style units that have some built-in drainage for minimal maintenance. Absolut Outdoors and Green Turf can tell you more :) And I'd hang an outdoor art piece or a screen for air plants on that blank wall, too, to enliven your balcony....See More

6 years agoHi Rachel,
This is quite easy to fix. Firstly I would brighten the space up with a white paint such as Nippon Violet Whispers (warm white), this will give you a good base to work from. Then I would replace your table with one that is larger. This table is too small to be useful and is making your entrance feel small. I recommend using teak and keeping this console table simple in design. On the wall I would place artwork - the bigger the better as this will make a dramatic statement. Then add some lighting (table lamp on console table) and decorative items and voila your entrance will be instantly chic!
I have mocked up two options for you - one is based on blues, the other pinks, so depending on your preference you can go either way.
This is the blue version with hints of tropical
This is the pink version.
I would love to work with you, so if you are interested in my ideas, please contact me via my website www.atelierlane.com

6 years agoHow about considering putting a Waffle Console Table with Handcrafted SARI Square Mirror. On the table top, you could put any kind of decorative pieces.
Or, this handcrafted Hanako Console Table with an art work. This picture show "Against The Wind" by Davide dall'Osso.
