We were just committing war crimes in home decor back then, weren’t we?
You mean you don't want your walls to look like they're made of lizard skin?
Only after watching Fear and Loathing...
The house I spent most of my life in had teal green carpet and salmon colored walls. My mom had purposely chosen this combo. 🤢
My inlaws still have the fake wood paneling in their house. It's by choice.
My own grandparents removed it from their house in the 80s.
Our house has that fake wood paneling in the spare room. We hate it, but renovations cost money.
It looks significantly better/more modern if you just paint it white: https://i.pinimg.com/736x/b5/d0/24/b5d0249b79001b96b184ad6a86a014db.jpg
I kinda like that. I bet other colors like a lavendery-gray could work too
Thanks for the tip!
That stuff was everywhere in the 70s, wasn't it?
I like it. My living room walls are pretty much salmon, but the shitty carpet is light brown. If we ever get to buy a place I'll see how much my wife will put up with. But we both love art Deco and 70s shit so it'll probably be a beautiful disaster.
