How giant does this rug need to be?

about 10.5 x 11.5 feet? Not sure actually, going to play around with the rug we have to see where's best to put it.

I think they have lots of nice looking ones. I wish the sort function worked slightly more specifically but actually it's pretty good.

Got a room with walls painted grey - need some colour in it, especially a blind (one of the ones I still don't have from November 2015 apparently). I like some yellow fabrics but is grey&yellow going to be too played out from Pinterest in the near future?

If you like it, you like it. Some colors go together.

gray goes well with a lot of colors. yellow, red, purple, and green all match w/ it well imo

Was considering doing a shari vari in the back of our bookshelves but decided to go for a single colour instead. Which should match/complement the blind.

To be more specific, different grays go with different other colors. It's more about the shading than anything. There are a million grays.

I've transcended from clutter to actually dirty around here, took day off work for mental health reasons and am going to try to get some cleaning done!

i have the desire to paint, de-clutter and clean when I'm totally slammed with work and don't have time to do these things -- also, the desire is an escape mechanism -- putting off one thing in favor of something else that isn't as immediately necessary but easier. bedroom really needs paint, as it hasn't been painted in almost 20 yrs (as in right before I moved in). But I'm going to wait until summer or at least warmish spring, so I can open the windows to air out the paint smell.

When I'm pushed to action with a really busy week at work I feel the obligation to be _on_ when I'm home, too
which is horrible because slow times at work would be the perfect time to get a lot of home stuff done but I slow down
