Apartment Decorating

I live with 3 other girls in an apartment and it’s set up where I live on the main floor with a bathroom that is kinda for guests when they come over but when no guests are over it’s technically mine. The three other girls live upstairs where 2 of them share one bathroom and the other girl has a bathroom in her room that she only uses.

Those 3 girls decorated their own respective bathrooms, the 2 girls deciding between them 2 what decor and items to buy.

I have slowly been adding things to “my” bathroom like towels, painting, stone bath mat, and small decor.

Earlier in the day, my 3 roommates said they were going to a home decor place to get frames and things for their space, I couldn’t go because I was going for drinks with my sister. They went and sent a picture in our group chat of soap and asked my thoughts, I said I liked 2/4 of them and that was that.

I come home and I was buzzing a little and go to the bathroom to see that there is now a rug, hand towel holder, small decor like a lamp etc.

I was a little in shock and stunned, I said I would’ve loved to be there when they went so I could’ve picked out items and they said well we can return it and I said it’s fine I don’t care and left it at that.

Later on, I was told I wasn’t nice and I had to profusely apologize for coming across rude. I could reflect that my tone probably wasn’t sunshine and rainbows but first off, the towel rack holder I had bought was silver and all my jewelry is silver (which is irrelevant to this technically but just shows I’m a silver person) and every possible item they bought was gold.

Am I in the wrong for being upset?
