To have such a kind mother-in-law who is so interesting, who has cultivated such a fascinating and inspiring home, who loves you and your children, is such a blessing. I feel I’ve known you for so many years, so to visit the home of your mother-in-law has been a bright spot in my day for sure. Thank you for posting this!🦋🦋🦋

    Absolute perfection. Your Mother in Law is being way too modest. I don't think most people could decorate so beautifully with all of the layers and textures without natural talent. I loved everything. The garden is so beautiful as well. Thank you to your Mother in Law for letting you video a tour.

    Hi Jennifer, Thank you for inviting us into your mother-in-laws home; what a treat to see her beautiful, inviting home and gardens plus hear her perspective on decorating. I think of her often and pray for her as no doubt she is still missing her dear husband.

    Now she is a “mother in love” more than a mother in law. What a blessing 🩷✨ I have one of them too 🥹 I especially loved her tone of voice when you asked her if this look can be replicated on a small budget, “of course! Yard sales!” She is a gem, as are you. Have a beautiful day.

    This was an absolute delight Jennifer. So appreciative of your MIL sharing her quintessential English home with us. As a Brit living in North America, this made me utterly home sick. The roses were spectacular as were the nature gardens. The maximalist style takes so much talent and your MIL has it created perfectly.

  • @dsmith9796
    @dsmith9796 11 месяцев назад +10

    This was absolutely wonderful. Your mother-in-law's home is a feast for the eyes. I showed my husband the beautiful room with the white sofa and blue throw - I said, "look at this beautiful room it has something in it that reminds me of our home". He looked and said it is a pretty room and then he started naming things, windows -no - table -no - he kept looking and all the while I knew he had not seen it. I finally said "look at the sofa" - he doubled over laughing when he saw the dog!!! We have a small dog who also likes to get on the back of one of our sofas just like your mother-in-law's dog!!! That house is a dream for this American who dreams of living in the British countryside!!! I'm sure your MIL is so happy to have her son, you and the children with her this summer! Thank you both of sharing this lovely video - now I'm going to watch it again. Hello from SC.

  • @anitas5817
    @anitas5817 11 месяцев назад +13

    Lovely tour, thank you! It’s interesting to me that she doesn’t think she has a decorating style - it’s because she doesn’t follow anyone else. She is an artist and her style is her own creation. I love the things she said about filling your home with comfort and joy for yourself and your family, and not following trends. It’s also interesting that all her books and other things are out on tables rather than tucked away on bookcases and shelves.

    What a treat! Your mother-in-law has such a beautiful home. I loved the words she used to describe her style: "comfort and welcoming, warm unchanging atmosphere ..." I feel relaxed and at peace just hearing those words. Her home certainly exemplifies that description.

    @shelleyvanhouten27 11 месяцев назад +4

    Thank you for opening your home to us. What’s not to love about your home & Garden. I think my take away was that “Layering” makes the home more inviting. When I tried a more minimalistic approach to decorating, I put my “pretties away. My home became a house. It didn’t feel like it was warm and inviting. I think some designers might label my style “Grandma Chic”. I’m not keen on labels, but, I love what I love and I’m no longer apologizing for it! Your home is lovely. I would spend time in the garden room for sure!
    I have a long haired dachshund and home wouldn’t be the same without her! 💜💜

  • @moniquelacroix1706

    Thank you, Jennifer, and please thank your gracious mother-in-law for “inviting” us into her beautiful home! I enjoyed it so much! Wherever we look, we see beauty! But we can also feel a welcoming warmth, a comfortable coziness that is so inviting! I especially loved it when she said, very humbly, that she believes she doesn’t have a particular style: it made me smile, because even if I couldn’t name it myself, I could see similarities throughout the house in the way things were styled! So, to me, she does have a style, her very own artistic style, and it’s beautiful! What was as interesting as the visit itself was hearing you and your mother-in-law talk together. I felt a deep mutual respect, humor and sincere affection between the two of you! I will watch this video again and again as I want to be able to see all the details I may have missed!

You mentioned when you first visited my home in L.A., that it reminded you of your mother-in-law's, of course in a smaller version...much smaller. I take this as a high compliment. Thank both of you for allowing us into her home....It was. treat indeed.xoxoxo

    Your mother-in-law's home is so dreamy! I am in awe of beauty. The garden room reminds me of my grandmother's home. She uses a mixture of silk and real plants. When we kids were little, we would take our toys and play in the plants, little hideouts for the fisher price little people. What a great place to make wonderful memories ❤️. Thank you for sharing!

  • @kimberlyperrotis8962
    @kimberlyperrotis8962 11 месяцев назад +1

    I’ve studied this style for forty years. Heritage and tradition are important aspects of this style. It’s an eclectic style featuring mostly traditional, high-quality, inherited items and some comfortable new items, especially for seating. For my own home, I don’t add anything newer than about the WWI era, when modern styles began. MCM-style items, for example, don’t sit comfortably with this style. This style usually features an abundance of fine fabrics, other natural textures like leather, lots of books, plants and fresh flowers and traditional ornaments, including china (chinoiserie can be a significant element of this style as well). Modern art is sometimes juxtaposed against more the more traditional elements, as in this lady’s home. I began doing this in mine about ten years ago as well; this style can look stuffy without some freshness, as more modern art can bring. I also lightened up and simplified my window coverings at that time. Comfort and livability are really important, but nothing has to be super-casual, either. Thanks to both of you for the talk and tour.

    Books make a room for me. I love her curated, collected look of her life. I too surround myself with things that mean something to me. I can put something on a wall or a table and live with it for years ,if it speaks to me. I also have been in my home for a long time. Fifty years this year!!!! I am also alone for the last 21. Her garden is a paradise. The roses and arbor into the pool, the river bank, the gorgeous mature trees. I am happy she has all those beautiful , loving dogs to fill her heart.

    Jennifer, I absolutely adore your mother-in-law. Not only are her home and gardens fabulous, but when she said that she didn’t believe that less is more, but that more is more, I wanted to hug her and, maybe, nominate her for a knighthood! I’m sick to death of all these minimalists who keep droning on and on about “de-cluttering,” which they would seemingly define as disposing of anything beyond life’s essentials. I love my possessions, and I love surrounding myself and my family with beautiful things. Like Ben’s mother, I have inherited a great deal of my furniture and furnishings and acquired many others at estate sales. I enjoy all of them and have no desire to “simplify.” My house is full, but tidy, not as grand as hers, but still filled with beautiful things in a comfortable way. Bravo to your mother-in-law! Thank you for this tour. (And I love the Smythson bag she gave you for Christmas. What a charming family you married in to!)

    Her home is so beautiful but also looks comfortable! It’s not like some large homes that make you feel like you can’t touch anything. I was actually surprised by how down to earth her style is yet put together in such a stunning manner. My house has a lot of color, I don’t get rid of my things just because I may not be using it at the moment, company feels at home but also loves to look at all my pictures and things. Her garden is to die for yet so simple that many people can plant David Austin roses and get that same feel. What a special video, thank you to her for allowing you to share with all of us. Now I understand why you love going to England!

    Oh my goodness! Appreciation to your mother-in-law. Where to begin - her lovely accent (to me), her style, the flowers, the textures and the furniture, the art, books and collectibles and her adorable dogs! I think I even sensed the aroma of all the flowers. This was so beautiful, thank you for sharing this with us Jennifer. I feel so refreshed what a palette cleaner for our world right now. So peaceful and wonderful. Spreading Gods beauty to all.

    Very few people in England live like this. A home and garden so large and beautiful is not typical. What a privilege to spend time there.

    Wow Jennifer! Thank you so much for sharing your mother-in-law and her story and her house with us! I hope she's doing allright, grieving the loss of her husband. The house is very grand and beautiful! I can imagine with a house this big she needs a housekeeper as you recently mentioned.

    Edited to add: Please do more interviews with your mother-in-law. She is a fascinating woman! 💐

    How lovely! My Mother is British and I do believe I have absorbed this style. It is so comfortable. To note: as an interior designer and florist I see that Madame has very good instincts. I think too, that people overlook the tactile....having cozy thick throws to cuddle in. Look also for pretty frames.....an important part of this look...you can always switch out the print to what you like. Well done Madame.

    Please pass on my thanks to your mother in law for the insight into her home. It’s beautiful and I love the artwork on the walls.
    As your mother in law mentioned, there is an antiques centre near to where I live. It’s a converted very old building (I don’t know how old) that’s about three floors high. Creaky floors, subtle scent of dust! It’s absolutely packed with bygone memorabilia, it’s like a museum. They have so much beautiful china in pristine condition and really delicate. They don’t charge an extortionate price for it either. I may go in again for some of it.

    I LOVE ALL OF THIS! My favorite thing is probably how the tv is not a focal point in the living room, and hardly noticeable. I would just like to know how this works logistically for a family to watch together. My wish is that we could get a tour of other rooms, like bathrooms and kitchen!

    I am speechless...almost! What a classic English country home that could be featured in Victoria magazine! Your mother-in-law was charming and so humble regarding her obvious talent for exhibiting beauty in every corner...and who wouldn't want to spend a good part of the day in those gardens!

    Thank your mother-in-law for sharing her beautiful home.

It is true that your home is a reflection of the homeowner...lovely!

    It’s funny because I am such a minimalist but I love to visit my friends who decorate this way. It’s absolutely beautiful and so warm and welcoming. I have to admit, it was funny to see a fire going in the fireplace. Most of us in the U.S. are cooking right now. You have a lovely mother-in-law, Jennifer and she has great style!

    My favorite video. Your mother-in-law’s house and garden are beautiful. She was very gracious and humble in describing her home and was down to earth explaining how she decorated with comfort in mind and people and the dogs. I loved her choice of color and placement of everything. Her home was welcoming. What a treat for me and I’m sure many others. Thank you Jenifer for sharing.🥰. …GraceHolly from Ohio

    Absolutely love home! I think it is so delightful and she has done it all so nicely. Love the idea of books for decoration as well as reading. I love books myself, and my book case overflows. What a wonderful idea! I was thinking that if I put them around it would save dusting so much and it would make it still so cozy! She seems like such a nice person, You both truly converse so well together and can tell you really have alot of respect and love for each other!
