Sure i'm grateful for what she gives and i will accept it, but it kinda reminds me of when a grandmother is trying to by clothes for her Granddaughter, it just doesn't work.

I'm in my early 20s, so here's my opinion:
While your idea for decorating is not anything I'd do myself, I would think its pretty normal for a college-aged guy. As long as a place is neat and CLEAN (boyfriend's apartment was always filthy) most girls don't have a problem. And, I'm the kind of girl that's much more impressed by a PS2 and a big screen than velvet couches and columns.
As for your mom's idea, frankly, I think it sounds tacky and garish. It sounds more like a funeral home or brothel than a man's apartment. Maybe she's trying to get you a much much much older woman - with a healthy bank account?
While its nice to have people give you things, I know I'd much rather someplace done in "early everybody" that reflected me and my style than to have somebody give me something I absolutely hated.
