We will start at the front door. I’ll add a map later, we’ll assume the house is oriented so the house faces west and start moving through it counterclockwise.

I’ll try to use a reasonable number of pictures to describe an area.

Entryway into the house

This is the primary entry into the house. There are a number of commonly-found features here:

Door with circular stained glass

Red comfy chair by narrow window

L-configuration stairs to upstairs

War medal in framed display

Hat stand/coat rack

Big picture of Grandad in uniform

Kid’s backpack storage cubby by stairs

Sometimes there is variation in various features like the rugs, plants, etc.

Okay, so I actually have two designs for this room, and the other one will post at the same time as this one. I want y’all to let me know which one you like better!!! I had done this design for a room for two teenaged girls, and then added in the futon for sleepover vibes—but that made me want to challenge myself to make a room for three teens instead, sooo I redid the room 😅 I can’t wait to hear what you guys think!!!

I love the neutrals of this room. It’s not overwhelmingly “girly”, but still has some traditionally feminine elements, namely the flower-shaped tables and pink accents. The Cinnamoroll sofa is SO cute, as is the stool—I’m obsessed with all the Sanrio furniture, tbh. I also really love how well the Turkey Day rug coordinates with the rest of the neutrals in the room. It’s a super cute rug, and I love the way it’s designed to look so 3D and plushy!!! I was really glad to be able to work it into this design.

Q: Where’s Kitt’s home?

Here’s a second set of photos of the main floor of our lil’ cottage. Everything in the house reflects Hunter’s and my interests; books, music (piano for Hunter, cello for me!), cooking, gardening...

The back room of my main floor (aka my bathroom) was honestly the hardest to renovate. I really loved how my original bathroom had turned out, and, while I don’t think I’ve necessarily topped it, design-wise, I do think that this design really fits with the rest of my house and my goals for the design as a whole.

This bathroom does double duty as a laundry room (and also probably extra storage for coats, blankets, pillows, and the like). It’s a full bathroom, as it is the only bathroom in the house outside of the master suite! It may be the tiniest bit cluttered—especially with all of the plants—but it’s clean, bright, and airy—and, really, what else matters in a bathroom?

Ever since I saw this sunflower wallpaper, I KNEW I needed it for a kitchen design. There’s kind of a lot going on in here, but that seems appropriate—I feel like any good kitchen should be busy. In the future, I may make the sunflower wallpaper an accent wall, but for now, I’m keeping it in the entire kitchen (largely because I don’t know what I want to use for the other walls lol.

The addition of cooking in the recent update has been, quite literally, a game-changer for me. I’ve always loved the DIY aspect of Animal Crossing, but now that I have a much wider range of food-items to decorate my kitchen with, I’m loving it SO much more. I think I change up the food and kitchen items on the counter and table pretty much every day at this point. (In fact, after I took these photos, I swapped out the soup kettle for the vegetable basket, and I absolutely love how that looks on the counter. So much fun!!!)

I have a lot of plans for what I want my house to be eventually. I want to turn it into a place that looks like an actual family home. This is the bathroom, and it’s probably my favorite room in the house currently (although the upstairs is a contender too!). I love all of the plants, and the little goldfish friend in its bowl. My furniture catalogue isn’t the most expansive, and I’m not really the biggest fan of any of the “indoor” bathtubs I have right now, so I decided to use a hot spring as my bath instead!

Wishlist for this room: I’d love to get my hands on the cloud floor, because I’ve seen a lot of people use it in bathrooms to look like steam, but we’ll see! Otherwise, I’m pretty happy with this room!
