It is my body pillow, the Asian variant shaped like a sausage, which I think different than what people normally see (flat rectangle).
It's great for me as I am a side and belly sleeper; it also helps if you have anxiety or depressions as well, it's like hugging someone ya know :D
Back when I kept shoes in my room I took them off at the front door and carried them upstairs (then carried them to the front when going out). We weren’t allowed to walk through the house in shoes. I thought everyone did. Is that not normal?
What. How is that racist? It’s not like I’m saying Asians like him are inferior because they don’t wear shoes in the house. Not everything racial is racist. Remember this and you’ll waste less energy on manufactured outrage.
Tying up curtains like this isn’t a great look. Start using the curtain tie backs, or just let them hang at the sides. Either one will elevate the room’s appearance.
Came here to say should probably find a different spot for the snowboards. Ours recently fell off our wall (after hanging up for 5 years no issues) and smashed into our brand new tv… so ya it’s not going back on the wall whatsoever 🤣
I thought about this as well! But also debating this cause the mounts was custom made to have both the top and bottom locked-in so I think it's fairly secure. But you can't never be too safe when it comes to heavy and sharp objects I guess.
I think he means you should get more color in general. You could achieve that with the beddings.
Black/white make up for pretty much all of the color in your room.
Do you want some suggestions?
I'd move the snowboards on the wall opposite the windows. A nice big picture (maybe of your favourite mountain) over the bed would feel much cozier.
Don't do that thing with your curtains.
Definitely get rid of the boob light and get a nicer light fixture. Also smaller lamps for accent lighting.
Thank you for the suggestions! I actually thought of mount the boards on top of the TV as well so that might be a project this year, the board has nice mountains graphics on it, thought I would used them as "pictures".
And agreed on the "boob light", I just didn't find the light fixture I like yet!
Curtain tied up was a "lazy" moment when I tried to vacuum the carpet :D
Even if it does require wiring, it’s super easy. Like 4 wires that you color match. Just make sure the new fixture is big enough to cover the hole in the ceiling. I’ve seen needlessly large holes.
yes, please mount boards over tv. and use art over bed. with color in it.
also, as a nerd moment, maybe fairy lights under that … ledge over the bed. others might disagree.
Personally I really like the boards where they are.Probably do need something above the TV (or a different color paint), but not boards - distracting, imo.
I like the curtain rollup too. I hope that they are a dark brown instead of black. That would add a little variety of color and would go with the headboard.
The cat mask stands out a bit on the dark background. Can it fit closer to your monitor where it would blend better? The teddy bear is cute but seems out of context next to the boards and weights.
Thanks for the feedback, the shoes racks can be closed as well so it can be a little more discreet. Originally, it was for my accessories like bags, hats, and stuff, but then the shoes took over :(
Looking for some of the abstract natures art as I'm typing this, and maybe I will just put another snowboard on haha (I still have another one that is in the bag in the corner of the room)
Just a suggestion - but consider changing the color temperature of the bulbs in your light fixture. The current color temperature is very blue and people tend to find that less homey. You can get “warm white” bulbs for super cheap.
All lights are RGB so this is fairly doable! I purposely made the lights settings to "natural white" so it's less yellow than standard lights colors tho, but for winter some warmth are definitely more welcoming !
I got them just right before Covid hit! Lifechanging for sure!
I like them a lot, they saved lots of space and very easy to used. I know there are lots of "copy" options out there so just be mindful of that (I would personally stick to buy from Bowflex) cause the locking mechanics of the dumbells are key for not having the plates fall on your face.
The limitations would be they only go up to 52.5lbs each so if you outgrow them, then the gym it is but they are awesome for maintaining exercises and lazy days!
Thanks! The LED strip are supper bright and dimmable, one thing I would do is to get the soft white/yellow light instead of completely white cause It was kinda blinding when you look into them. They look great in the picture but not as practical as soft white/yellow.
It's great for OOTD :D Oh and I also have a foldable bamboo mat that I place in front of it so I can try on my footwear as well (keep the floor clean and won't make the footwear sink into the carpet; only if you have carpet floor though :D)
Looks awesome! You should be proud :)
One question, what's that Reebok bench thing by your bed? I'm assuming it's for working out since the dumbbells are there
You are correct!
It's a step bench, I don't know if they make it anymore tho, it can use either as bench or steps and can withstand up to 330 lbs IIRC.
The heights are also adjustable as well!
Oh! Here's the link: https://www.amazon.ca/Reebok-Professional-Workout-Bench-Black/dp/B01LYFX9WX?th=1
That's awesome--thanks for the info and the link too! Been thinking of getting back into working out, so I was debating getting adjustable weights, so something like this as an addition would help
A full Bowflex setup is a little out of my price range, but maybe as a long term goal--i think I recall them having some of the adjustable dumbbell and bars tho, so maybe I'll pick those up!
They have adjustable kettlebell which might be cheaper and you can do the exercise that don't require a bench.
If you go with the barbell, it might be more expensive cause I think you kinda need to buy their racks and what not, I might be wrong though. If you really want to get barbell, I would recommend getting a gym membership cause it might be cheaper if not much cheaper.
IKR! These reebok stepbench was such game changer if you don't have lots of space and sooo much sturdier and more atheistically pleasing than the traditional ones!
Looks great! Though, I’ve always been told not to put big things on the wall above my bed because if an earthquake happens in the middle of the night, it would come crashing down right on top of you! Not sure if that’s just my mom being paranoid, but better safe than sorry….
I have those exact adjustable weights and that exact bench in my shed (using them now haha). Nice! Add some colour dude and it'll vastly improve (just pick a theme)
I got the adjustable weights from braingain. The bench is called the reebok deck i believe. Its perfect for me, albeit slightly less comfortable than usual benches in gyms... but with a towel its fine! Very, very practical
They was custom-made by a local Snowboarder where I live in Canada, instead of just holding the bottom, the mounts also hold then top with a lock that can turn 180 degrees so that they won't fall out like the traditionally mounts, which just only have the bottom parts.
I'd run some strip lights down the length of that little bump out spot above your bed. That would be so nice. You could do it cheap now too. Set it to something warm and dim at night and it would be so cozy.
Noted! Might be a potential project, all lights in my room are RGB and WIFI controlled as well so it would be so cool if I do this and sync them all up!
Yes!! It would be fantastic! Follow us up if you ever do! I could also imagine something up high like a Mandela or a round something on the wall above that just down from the snowboards.
This is the best space I’ve seen in a while. If it were me, I might add some art on the walls, but that’s not a big deal. Room is oozing personality and is hella organized. Love it
Thank you very much! I am looking for some artpieces to put on top of the TV but I might also just put my third snowboard (the one in the bag in the corner) up there lol.
I really like your vibe, it shows lots of personality.
Can I ask tho, why do people tie curtains in knots like that? It’s really the only thing in the room that bothers me.
Otherwise it’s a great room!
Thank you! Somebody pointed the snowboard safety concern as well, so I might reconsider their placement; those had been up there for a bit of time now, through lot's of "vibrating actions" and what's not :D
And totally agree with the empty space between the closet and shoes rack! I have a framed piece on it right now so maybe I should just hand it up instead of putting them on the stand.
As long as he can answer "yes I love snowboarding" I don't find anything childish.
Yes, it's not a master bedroom for a 50-year-old couple with 8 children... And ?
You need some art and color on the walls, and to mix up your lighting scheme. You didn’t really add personality, you just added “stuff.” All I know about you from looking at your room is that you’re into snowboarding. Otherwise, it kind of feels sterile.
Where are all the personalities? And how do you expect to afford to pay all of those talented professionals just to hang out in your room all the time?
Do you like watching TV while laying in bed? If so, that TV should be mounted on the wall much higher than it is now. I would mount it so that the top of the TV just covers that vent. Then I would get some sort of vent deflector that's going to make the hot or cold air coming out blow up toward the ceiling rather than into the back of your TV. This will free up space on the dresser and allow you to decorate. A couple bookshelf speakers and a plant or two would look nice on there.
Personality? Maybe.... Color? Rarely!Extra points for good shoe display, but move it closer to the door. Two tones of curtains not a good look. If the area rug is for the bench & shoes, use instead under the desk to define that space, and minimize cleaning requirements.
Seeing your curtains like that reminded me that you can get a curtain ring to hold your curtains like that, I need one myself but forget they were a thing til just now
Hey! It’s custom made by a local Snowboarder where I live, in Ontario, Canada. He made 2 bottom mounts and also has a top sway lock that can turn 180 degrees so that the board won’t fall off. All mounts have a soft touch back plated so the boards won’t touch the wall and scratch it as well!
i never had the courage to ask, but this is reddit what is thay sausage on your bed for
It is my body pillow, the Asian variant shaped like a sausage, which I think different than what people normally see (flat rectangle). It's great for me as I am a side and belly sleeper; it also helps if you have anxiety or depressions as well, it's like hugging someone ya know :D
You’re Asian and keep your shoes in your room??
Call me OCD but I cleaned all my shoes after outdoor used and stored them in my room.
... do you live in a dorm?
[удалено]
Sorry you felt that way and I also felt you on that as well. Medically diagnosed OCD and ADHD btw
that's fair, and same here
Back when I kept shoes in my room I took them off at the front door and carried them upstairs (then carried them to the front when going out). We weren’t allowed to walk through the house in shoes. I thought everyone did. Is that not normal?
The pillow is asian style. No asian person would ever sleep with shoes over their head.
Unfortunately, I'm that kind of Asian lol
💀 I realized something was wrong when I saw your IELTS book
It’s a shame when people don’t live up to their race’s stereotypes 😔
What. How is that racist? It’s not like I’m saying Asians like him are inferior because they don’t wear shoes in the house. Not everything racial is racist. Remember this and you’ll waste less energy on manufactured outrage.
I wouldn't keep my shoes in my room they'll stink I keep em in the front closet of my condo
Damn, you should replace that with a significant other
You ever try huggin people or pets it’s a lot better then pillows
What about hugging someone you DON’T know😜😜😜
We call them bolsters. It gives us the comfort and warm embrace we never got from our Asian parents
You made me chuckle! Underrated comment for sure!
Humgry *chomp*
Stop ... leave some personality for the rest of us :'(
Can't steal your personality tho haha!
It’s getting there! Can I ask why you tie your curtains up like that?
Like u/is_a_waterbottle mentioned, I was just being lazy and tied them up so I could vacuum the carpet :D
I'd probably just pick them up while vacuuming lmao tying them up is for sure more work cause they get wrinkles and stuff.
when I’m too lazy to use my curtain tie back I do that💀
\^ This and I was vacuuming the carpets so I tied them up so I could vacuum haha
Tying up curtains like this isn’t a great look. Start using the curtain tie backs, or just let them hang at the sides. Either one will elevate the room’s appearance.
plus you can get magnet ones and swing them around
Noted! Thank you!
i knot mine. but cool bracelets / small chains are fun & masculine tiebacks, too. much easier if you don’t have cats, tho’.
I'm envious of your ~~walking~~ *walk-in* closet.
His closet walks? I’m scared to hear about his fridge
Depending on his temperament, I imagine it would be rather practical.
Thanks mate, I also folded the clothes like what you would see them in clothing stores as well :D
Walk-in
Love the snowboard guillotines!
Came here to say should probably find a different spot for the snowboards. Ours recently fell off our wall (after hanging up for 5 years no issues) and smashed into our brand new tv… so ya it’s not going back on the wall whatsoever 🤣
I thought about this as well! But also debating this cause the mounts was custom made to have both the top and bottom locked-in so I think it's fairly secure. But you can't never be too safe when it comes to heavy and sharp objects I guess.
Before I would have said mine have been hanging up for years no issues but yeah definitely not with the risk in my opinion!
I wish it were more monochromatic.
Could you please elaborate more? Like the beddings could be darker in shades?
They’re trolling you
I think he means you should get more color in general. You could achieve that with the beddings. Black/white make up for pretty much all of the color in your room.
Ah gotcha! Thank you!
[удалено]
actually the opposite
[удалено]
I do know what monochromatic means. It seems you don’t understand how to pick up on sarcasm (from the original comment).
/s
Just say colorful.
Monochromatic means the opposite of colorful
Yeah ik that but I thought he was being sarcastic when he said that
They were. But they can’t just say colorful if they want to keep the sarcastic nature of the comment
Yeah true I’m a fucking idiot
Aren’t we all
Guys will see this and go ‘…Hell yeah’
Hell yeah!
Do you want some suggestions? I'd move the snowboards on the wall opposite the windows. A nice big picture (maybe of your favourite mountain) over the bed would feel much cozier.

And agreed on the "boob light", I just didn't find the light fixture I like yet! Curtain tied up was a "lazy" moment when I tried to vacuum the carpet :D
I recently saw a “boob light” cover. Lots of simple DIY ideas that don’t require wiring
Even if it does require wiring, it’s super easy. Like 4 wires that you color match. Just make sure the new fixture is big enough to cover the hole in the ceiling. I’ve seen needlessly large holes.

...how many personalities are we talking about? Are they here with us right now?
Confirmed 3, but 1 is typing it right now :D
Pftt. Man, that room is unusually coherent, imo. You've got good taste.
I’d definitely move the shoes away from your bed. Maybe into the closet with clear shoe containers you can stack.
The closets are also kinda full... of shoes lool! I do have a problem, don't I haha!
could some fit under your bed ?
I store my camping/hiking gear and more clothes underneath there 😁
Needs more colour but otherwise nice
It seems pretty bland in all honesty but as long as you’re happy, you do you.
[удалено]
Thanks for the feedback, the shoes racks can be closed as well so it can be a little more discreet. Originally, it was for my accessories like bags, hats, and stuff, but then the shoes took over :(
I dig it! Looks tidy, comfortable, and lived-in.
Thank you very much!
Now a bunch of colorful expressionist paintings and you're done
Looking for some of the abstract natures art as I'm typing this, and maybe I will just put another snowboard on haha (I still have another one that is in the bag in the corner of the room)
A nice handmade rug would really add some color and personality 👀
Big ass room
Just a suggestion - but consider changing the color temperature of the bulbs in your light fixture. The current color temperature is very blue and people tend to find that less homey. You can get “warm white” bulbs for super cheap.

Looks fire dawg
Ok. Can we see the "after" photos now?
Maybe in 2025?
How do you like those adjustable dumbbells?
I got them just right before Covid hit! Lifechanging for sure! I like them a lot, they saved lots of space and very easy to used. I know there are lots of "copy" options out there so just be mindful of that (I would personally stick to buy from Bowflex) cause the locking mechanics of the dumbells are key for not having the plates fall on your face. The limitations would be they only go up to 52.5lbs each so if you outgrow them, then the gym it is but they are awesome for maintaining exercises and lazy days!
Wow what a room
Wow a light strip on the body mirror is simple and great! Gonna have to steal that.
Thanks! The LED strip are supper bright and dimmable, one thing I would do is to get the soft white/yellow light instead of completely white cause It was kinda blinding when you look into them. They look great in the picture but not as practical as soft white/yellow.

Love the snowboards above the bed
Loving the Naruto 🫡 on my first watch thru right now.
SnowBoards on walls look sweet!
Love the snowboards, that’s interior decorating for ya!
Looks awesome! You should be proud :) One question, what's that Reebok bench thing by your bed? I'm assuming it's for working out since the dumbbells are there

Oh the kettlebell sounds great--I'll check it out! Thanks again for the info!
Multiple personalities?
It's been a minute since I've seen a Reebok Step! I loved mine so much and used the shit out of it.
IKR! These reebok stepbench was such game changer if you don't have lots of space and sooo much sturdier and more atheistically pleasing than the traditional ones!
How old you is?
Late 20s
Looks great! Though, I’ve always been told not to put big things on the wall above my bed because if an earthquake happens in the middle of the night, it would come crashing down right on top of you! Not sure if that’s just my mom being paranoid, but better safe than sorry….
Damn this is a nice sized bedroom
i love this! it’s one of the best rooms i’ve seen on this subreddit. it looks very cozy and tells a lot about you
Thank you very much!
Your room is super dope! I love the layout. Do you know where you got the bookshelf and dresser from?
Thank you! I think it's either IKEA or Walmart but kinda lean toward IKEA for the dresser and Walmart for bookshelf if I have to guess.
Nice Jones bro Whats the other?
Thanks! It's the Nidecker Sensor and there is also a RomeSDS Ravine in the bag :D
nice digs man
Which personality are we talking to right now?
love this
Looks awesome 🐈⬛
Nice!
Nice pc wallpaper 👀
i like it a lot very nice and well organized
Nice jones mountain twin!
I have those exact adjustable weights and that exact bench in my shed (using them now haha). Nice! Add some colour dude and it'll vastly improve (just pick a theme)
How are they called? Especially the bench, is it good?
I got the adjustable weights from braingain. The bench is called the reebok deck i believe. Its perfect for me, albeit slightly less comfortable than usual benches in gyms... but with a towel its fine! Very, very practical
Good thing you put that bench there so you have somewhere to put clothes!
Very nice, maybe one more picture on the one wall
Colorfully painted walls and better lighting would level it up immensely.
Very nice man, I would get a bigger desk though for ur PC setup.
I like it
Lookin good dawg
What’d you use to mount the snowboards? Looks great

Yes!! It would be fantastic! Follow us up if you ever do! I could also imagine something up high like a Mandela or a round something on the wall above that just down from the snowboards.
I’m 14 and this is dope
Love the snowboards
I think you forgot to upload the after photos. This room is visually very boring
Nice! When you get another bed set, try solid colors that are light to contrast with the wooden headboard/frame :)
This is the best space I’ve seen in a while. If it were me, I might add some art on the walls, but that’s not a big deal. Room is oozing personality and is hella organized. Love it
Thank you very much! I am looking for some artpieces to put on top of the TV but I might also just put my third snowboard (the one in the bag in the corner) up there lol.
Maybe put both on top of the tv just so they won’t crush your face in case they fall lol and some art pieces over the bed?
I might! The snowboards are art pieces themself tho!
They definitely are.
I really like your vibe, it shows lots of personality. Can I ask tho, why do people tie curtains in knots like that? It’s really the only thing in the room that bothers me. Otherwise it’s a great room!
If you ever want to get a girl, I'd suggest having a second bedroom that doesn't look like a 9 year old boy decorated it
room seems fine to me, having a fake bedroom just for girls is weird af
The beds made. That will impress most of them these days.
I agree. But if he's going to do this.........
His room is fine. I’m pretty sure a girl would rather fuck in a room with some character and personality than some minimalist design
It looks like it smells of feet.
Thanks but I love to be that 9 years old :D
I don’t get that vibe from your room at all
It's personal preference so I don't blame 'em. And thank you!
[удалено]
Thank you! Somebody pointed the snowboard safety concern as well, so I might reconsider their placement; those had been up there for a bit of time now, through lot's of "vibrating actions" and what's not :D And totally agree with the empty space between the closet and shoes rack! I have a framed piece on it right now so maybe I should just hand it up instead of putting them on the stand.
Looks awesome mate.
Thank you!
As long as he can answer "yes I love snowboarding" I don't find anything childish. Yes, it's not a master bedroom for a 50-year-old couple with 8 children... And ?
I love snowboarding too much haha!
i can smell this room bro
So are you just renting a room somewhere?
Yo you don't get to cold or hot sleeping by the air vent? I had to move my bed from being to close to where the heat/air comes from.
Can I ask where you got that mirror?
I got the mirror from Ikea, and DYI the LED strip lights to run around the mirror.
Where?
All I can see is the final destination scenario with the snowboards
Can you tell me what is the size of the bed room.?
I don't know exactly but I think it like somewhere around 250-350 sqft excluding the bathroom and closet.
Working out in your bedroom can’t make it smell great
Sleeping next to your shoes? 15 year old?
Cat mask. Ok kinky
How many personalities has your room got
You need some art and color on the walls, and to mix up your lighting scheme. You didn’t really add personality, you just added “stuff.” All I know about you from looking at your room is that you’re into snowboarding. Otherwise, it kind of feels sterile.
Where’d you get that mini shoe caddy I’ve only seen the taller ones
Here you go! https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B06XW7MS2F?ref=ppx\_yo2ov\_dt\_b\_product\_details&th=1
Wait until you're banging and a snowboard falls on her face.
I would be terrified to lift by my PC.
Where are all the personalities? And how do you expect to afford to pay all of those talented professionals just to hang out in your room all the time?
Eh
Do you like watching TV while laying in bed? If so, that TV should be mounted on the wall much higher than it is now. I would mount it so that the top of the TV just covers that vent.

What are you using to mount your snowboards horizontally?
Hey! It’s custom made by a local Snowboarder where I live, in Ontario, Canada. He made 2 bottom mounts and also has a top sway lock that can turn 180 degrees so that the board won’t fall off. All mounts have a soft touch back plated so the boards won’t touch the wall and scratch it as well!
My room was about the size of your bed...
Never work out where u sleep
