Actually, hot pink compliments lime green. You can add some accents.

Afraid we ladies took over poor MG’s thread, steered it into decorating, and scared the guys away AGAIN!
That's true! I love that color combo.

And LMAO!

Oh my goodness y'all! I'll step up, I'm a girly girl & I love it

I despise clutter & trinkets & collections. But I'm not afraid of pattern or feminine flair.

there is nothing frilly or pink in your living room---i mean we are not talking about painting the walls with the colors of our favorite sports teams, when we mean a more masculine taste. your room looks totally fine!

Your photo looks very nice. There's nothing about that room that would turn off a guy. By the way, I probably live only a mile or two from you. The problem I have myself in decorating is picking out paint colors. It seems like every time I paint a room I can't really picture what those little paint sample cards are going to look like on the wall and I have to go back to the store and get something else because it ends up looking horrible. I just buy a quart of paint anymore to see how it looks and then buy more if it works.

Premise fail. I don't think it's normal or attractive for a woman to have a giant pig collection. Just like I don't need to see the grown man's Transformers collection room. And don't get me wrong - I LOVED the Transformers as kids. And I still read comic books. I just don't have shrines to anything in our house.

I think that's the ticket. I don't want to see shrines to anything. Accents are one thing. But it should feel like a grown up home, not a 13 year-old's.

Oh, and I really can't stand dust catchers/knickknacks/etc. Makes a place look too darn cluttered.
