    Paige, your PERSONALITY is the main reason I watch. Definitely be yourself because you are delightful.

    When we first got married, my husband thought he was the kind of person who just didn't care about interior design. But over the last 8 years, he's come to understand what he likes more and played a huge part in picking paint colors, furniture, and layout! People see the light blue cove ceiling in our home and think it must have been me, but he really championed the bolder and more saturated colors in our home. Even though they wouldn't have been my first choice, it's so special to have a home that's shaped by both of us :) Also, I avoided displaying photos of family or our wedding for YEARS because it always felt weirdly inauthentic and "shrine-y" when I saw a wedding or engagement gallery wall in someone's home, but you've opened my eyes to how displaying family photos can be so authentic and beautiful!

    My best advice is remember these two rules:
    1.) scientifically there are NO ugly or wrong colors, only ugly color combinations
    2.) there are no ugly color combinations until a work is completely finished. What this means is that colors that aren’t working well together aren’t necessarily wrong choices, but rather haven’t been unified/bridged or balanced together.
    Knowing these two rules, adding color and personality into your space just takes some reckless abandon and knowing that your space likely won’t look good or put together until you move towards a finished look where you pull everything together. Being safe with color choices allows for a space to look ok or good through most the process, but in the end will feel safe and perhaps even boring. Adding personality through color involves often looking awkward or even bad, potentially even up to near the end, but you give yourself the space for it to look great in the end
    The lesson is take some time but not too much time to consider adding new colors, and go with what speaks to you, and then as you begin to play around, you can begin to think more critically about how to pull what you have together. Trust the process, essentially. Remember that a “wrong” choice you dislike may actually be one step away from greatness

      Recently discovered this with adding a checked print curtain to my room that is green. I thought at first it stuck out like a sore thumb. Then, I added more things that are in the same colour in different tones and viola. It didn’t look so off anymore.

      @ Tita, have to disagree here, when people are told, grey is on trend, and then they paint their house grey, and if that wasn’t depressing enough, they add grey furniture, accessories, etc …..smh

    No love you's! One of the reasons I watch you is you don't fall into the hackneyed RUclips speak or themes. I think you ARE authentically you (as much as one can tell without knowing you personally and deeply) and even when I am not particularly drawn to the content or format of a particular video, I watch and enjoy because you stay true to yourself.

    After years of making do in beige apartments, I was so happy to choose colors when I bought a house. The previous owners had painted most of the rooms one color, and it wasn't bad, but it's gone now. We have a limestone fireplace in the living room, and the pale minty color of the room did nothing for it. After I painted it olive green it was like POW--it looks so good and so cozy. At Christmas it's especially fabulous. I'm leaving these decorations up for a little while longer!

    Confidence is also my biggest struggle and interestingly has gotten worse as I've started my 30's. I found this channel not too long ago and loved how authentic and confident Paige seemed. Isn't it funny how we look at people, like Paige, and assume they possess these things we so desperately want. I'm working on it by reminding myself that I don't have to be good at/interested in the things other people are. I am good, with qualities that attract others and bring them joy. Who I am, as I am, is enough. Cheers to the best year yet 🎉💕

    Love your taste and videos. I feel like I know all the design things, but it’s fun to geek out with others who have good taste. My biggest pet peeve is going into a space and I can tell where everything came from, like Home Goods, TJ Maxx, and Target. Also omg let’s talk personality. Seems like a lot of people don’t have it lol 😂 or they’ve succumbed to worrying about home resell value and the opinions of others. When I go into a space I want it to tell a story about who the occupant’s soul is! That’s what’s fun and interesting.

    *Authenticity* . Yes Ma'am! It's the most liberating and mentally healthy way to live, it has been for me. If you discover and embrace that mantra prior to age 50 in 2025, you go Girl! If someone had to write my obituary, I hope they would say; "She lived a humble life of service and adventure, embracing nature and creating a cozy home filled with things rustic, vintage and luxe sprinkled with Black Labrador glitter". Happy New Year Paige!

    Colour is very personal. There are colours one person loves, which another would never use. My personal preference, is to always use colour in accents. I firmly believe that people get quite "bored" of colour very quickly. So leaving colour to accept peaces, allows you to "zhuzh" the space up, if you feel like you crave to update your space very easy. All of my big ticket items, like sofas, bookcases, flooring are always neutral. Colour is introduced by lampshades, art and textiles. Another fun way to add colour for people who are nervous introducing it to their homes, is painting the inside of your cupboards, bookcases and any unit with doors. There is something very fun about opening doors of your kitchen cupboard and being faced with a nice bright colour. No one but you might ever see it, but what matters is that every time when you open the doors, it sparks a little bit of joy in you! Colour can be fun, and does not have to be feared. A little bit of colour, can go a long way too, so don't feel like you suddenly have to change everything, or paint every wall in your house.

    Fantastic Video and uplifting. I sometimes think I'm goofy with my many interests and agree with you that this will be a fun year! I'm excited for you and love your videos. It's incredible the photos you use as reference in explaining things about design. We share a lot of common interests, and I like the mix of vintage and new and I'm that 70% vintage and 30% new which I never heard said until you said it. It brings me joy to know I'm not alone. I agree with your partner analysis as well. I'm more of the art and design one than my wife and I'm very mindful to always make sure she is part of decision making. It works out good because I would just run wild in my home. She is Eastern European and grew up in Poland and then taught fashion design, seamstress and tailoring at a women's junior college there. We have been married thirty-nine years now. We are both very young at heart. She is not a collector like me but is understanding of that part of me. I grew up around design my entire life. I have always had an odd situation in life where I designed for high end companies in interiors, clothing and publishing but I'm not a consumer type of person of new things. I'm a vintage picker type. I would feel guilty often about designing to sell to the public something. It was always funny that other designers I would work with thought I was crazy for having those feelings. I found it all surreal when I would see my work in the marketplace. I can't explain that awkwardness about it, but I was good at making companies money. Art and design has been a journey for me and a winding one. It's kind of like being a good singer but don't like to perform. James Taylor the singer songwriter said this about himself in that he was always hesitant about that but it's what he does. A reluctant performer. Anyway...I'm a rambler too. I'm not happy about being that but my brain just works that way. I attached a couple videos of my former work as a designer. I'm an abstract painter now and oddly find success in that for some reason doors are opening with this new pursuit at age sixty - four. I guess we are never done learning and just when we think we know something we don't. Design is humbling. here's those videos- ruclips.net/video/KzgJ57BZacE/видео.htmlsi=M3OOM1uFCOqdniUt ruclips.net/video/Qp35BTvTfVw/видео.htmlsi=ZiGd3KumL6A4drbk

    I like when you talked about incorporating your partners style. The home should feel like both peoples personality. Like you said, being open minded is key. Growing up my mom always chose the items in our house and I saw my dad put his taste to the side. I never felt like the house was balanced with their personal styles. Now that I’m married, I make efforts to listen to my partners opinion on design choices. He ends up pushing me out of my comfort zone and making the space more interesting! Plus men are so practical. It’s always helpful to have someone keeping the purpose in mind.

Don't listen or pay attention to the ones that want you to do only what they want to do, and put you down for that.

    Yes, you have a personality. "You be you."... a phrase that never would have caught on in my generation (GenX) which was obsessed with appearing so cool that we didn't care or looking rich and successful. There is a manifesto going on in the neurodiversity world about Unmasking (not to diagnose you in any category); I see a general move toward Authenticity after years of being Influenced. Your Authenticity - not your style (although that is great too) is what draws in your viewers. It is your carrying card that will fascinate your future other. Even for women who are not disabled by ADHD/autism, we often mask, particularly around men, and wear the heck out. Come to my town near Evanston and we chat about this at our lovely brasserie.

    For me, part of being authentic is to stop exchanging gifts. One cannot be authentic when dedicating space to hide things you don't like, want or need, then pulling them out to display in an attempt to please the person who gave it to you. I cannot think of anything more inauthentic.

    “I like things to be natural and vegan if I’m taking them everyday” sounds like 2025 is the year you’re gonna watch Dominion on RUclips and become vegan ❤🐮🐷🐠🐔

    I’d like to add someone else’s personality to my decor. My own isn’t that awesome. Someone funny, fascinating, interesting. Any tips Paige? Can I borrow yours? It would be very generous of you.

      Hey Sharon! Nah-uh! Don't you talk about yourself that way. ☝️ Be kind to yourself, I bet you deserve it. 🏵

      Well you’re obviously funny, & there are definitely ways to decorate with a sense of humor. 😊

    REQUEST: Hi Paige, if I could make a request; the censor bleep in your previous video is genuinely very unpleasant almost painful to me and some others. Would you consider using something softer please? thanks in advance :)
