Peppermint Room

What do you think?

I don’t like this room. Way too many striped & peppermint themed items. It’s too much. I don’t really care for the furniture, accessories, or decorations. I’m not liking the gold trim on the moldings either.

The only item I really love is the piano.

Not for me but what a lovely family picture over the fireplace! I bet there is a fun family story behind the room and I'd love to hear it!

While the room empty would probably be spacious and appealing,, the decor in it is unsightly and distasteful, even the piano can't save it!

@wilma There's a Santa Claus in the middle of the Chrismas tree. It's very festive and fun! I especially like the "Fa La La La La" on the piano. The purpose of the room is to celebrate Christmas. It doesn't look this way year round. I can't analyze the room beyond the current purpose, but it might be interesting to see it without the holiday decorations and with its regular decor.

I do not care for it in the least. It is something what people spend their money on. I like peppermint but only to eat.

The family portrait is the only positive I can find in this room.

Guess, someone was imaginative to celebrate the Holidays with a candy cane theme. I see they have their Christmas stockings at the fireplace . Bet the children or Grandchildren love it !

Absolutely adorable, as a novelty and, as a novelty, so pretty. Would I want it? No freaking way.

Isn't this the Schitt's Creek mansion at Christmas?

It's why you don't let the kids decide how to decorate the house.

OMG, how to ruin what could be a beautiful space. I don't even like the gold edging all the panels along the walls and windows. Talk about overkill. (The fireplace looks like it could be nice, if you could see it.)

@wilma

The reindeer on the right of the fireplace gave me a giggle, but S/He would not fit in my home. I didn’t notice him until I enlarged the picture.

Thanks.

@NicksmomESQ Me too!

Also, I cannot go into homes w/a real X-mas tree either. The smell of all that pine "indoors" causes a "Migraine Party."
