FRANKLIN HILLS, NEW JERSEY: Melissa Gorga is back from her European vacation! 'The Real Housewives of New Jersey' star recently unveiled some beautiful artwork she bought for her Franklin Lakes abode. Melissa also confirmed that the mansion's interior was finally complete after months of renovation.

Melissa and Joe began building their house in 2021 but didn't start moving in until November 2022. Since then, the 'RHONJ' stars have made multiple changes to the property, including a major exterior renovation. The couple expanded the porch, redid the roofline, and installed new windows.

Melissa has updated her neutral-colored living room with two pieces, '3's a Party' and 'Round & Round' by Australian photographer Dina Broadhurst which flanked a window. The reality star also glammed up her bedroom with 'Glitter Girl' by fashion photographer Jamie Nelson. The work was placed next to the fireplace. Melissa has also elevated her dining space and one of her built-in bars. The Bravo star installed a piece called 'Field Dance' in the former area and 'Golden Indulgence' in the latter. Alongside the series of photos, Melissa wrote, "Finally picked some glam/fun artwork! @thesefinewalls is a curated selection of photographs by artists from around the world! I’m in love!" Award-winning interior designer Vanessa Deleon connected Melissa with TheseFineWalls, an online art gallery that specializes in limited-edition photography prints. TheseFineWalls has also shared the behind the scene glimpses of Melissa's interior. Melissa and Joe's Franklin Lakes home reportedly sits on 1.5 acres of land and features six bedrooms, multiple bars, a full gym, a glass-wall office, and a glam room.

'It’s kinda giving hair salon Melissa'

Melissa's latest house renovations might look perfect to her but her followers have slightly different opinions. The social media users took to the comment section and wrote, "The artwork is very… odd. Doesn’t look like home, but more like a salon of some sort." Another follower commented, "She really needs to hire a professional interior decorator." Another person said, "It’s funny as I look at art for my house the one thing I said is I don’t like pictures with random women in them." "It’s kinda giving hair salon Melissa," added another user. Another Instagram user stated, "First room has no soul... Only the last pic has any grit and energy. You guys really have no taste. Money can't buy class or taste clearly." Another critic noted, "Looks better plain. Artwork looks cheap from Home Goods. You don’t need to put art in every nook and cranny. Too crowded…"
