My dad installed a heated floor and towel rack in his bathroom (this was in England so it gets cooooold) and I remember it being heavenly. I'd do it here if I had some F U money lying around
When I had some light fixtures replaced in my house, I had the electrician replace the bathroom fan switches with switches that have timers. The switches were about $15 each at lowes. And I also had the electrician replace some outlets with ones that have USB ports. They are so handy for charging things!!
Oh I'm so envious of you! My bathroom fan is remotely controlled by the building management so I have zero control over when it turns on or off. Such a paint to have to schedule my life around it
living with my parents is hard since I cant design the way I want, except my room. I put together a whole folder of everything I want in my future home, from the colors and floors to the furniture and layouts. These videos opens up a new world of design for me and it helps a lot
I changed out all of our ceiling lights this fall. SO happy with updated lighting. I have a home that's nothing like your style but I get so much from you that I can adapt to my taste and I appreciate you. Happy Holidays to you and your family.
my best home investment upgrade would be towel heater🥰 as a person who gets easily cold i love that i can take a bath and not dread going out of the shower especially during fall/winter/spring seasons
You are always here when I need your opinion. First time with area rugs. 2nd time, decluttering. Now, shower heads. The one I have feels like someone spitting me!
I love how passionate you are about interior design. Love your energy! Not feeling great today, your positive vibes kind of helped to feel a little better! Thank you 🤍
I designed my kitchen and baths. I handpicked all material used inside my home, down to the tiniest detail. I was consumed with my interior remodel for months. The result was worth all the sleepless nights because almost nothing was overlooked. The only item I let my contractor decide was closet shelving. After I moved in, as soon as weight was added, they collapsed. My contractor blamed me for having too much clothing even though I repeatedly told him that I have a lot of clothing items. Hindsight I should have paid attention to closet installation myself. Now I use metal clothing racks; some with casters, some not. So far they hold up well and much cheaper to diy, don’t need a handyman or risk having the replacement rod shelves ripped out of the walls later.
My boyfriend broke up with me after helping him for over a year and a half out of depression and economical issues. I have been binge watching all your videos and it has made it way easier, I love the fact that I just discovered you.
I love Arvin he is sweet and so funny! He gives a lot of visual as he is talking. Which i need to keep me watching. Lol. Anyway he has great humor and intellect that keeps me interested.
I 100% agree regarding the floors. Now it's going to be such a hassle because I have to have all my furniture moved out of the house for them to be done. I have RH furniture and it will take actual movers to move it!
Oh my gosh. I did all of theses to my home! I love your ideas. I even changed out doorknobs and hinges. I had new flooring put in too. Love you!!! Oh almost forgot had my master bath updated and the flooring guy remarked and said it reminded him of a luxury hotel bathroom. It’s gorgeous!
I bought the showerhead you recommended and it's a game changer! The showerhead was actually the first things my husband and I replaced when we moved in!
Hi Arvin, again, I agree with your take on lighting. I just told my husband a few days ago that I can’t take all of these bright retina-burning lights in my eyes and that I wish we had some type of dimmers. Definitely going to check out the system you talked about in this video, thank u so much, I’m having to go back and look at all of your videos since I’m a new sub. Take care, 🙏❤️
White oak is beautiful hands down that’s what we’re in of verge of doing I’m glad u mention this video ur the best as always ur right linen is the best we’re switching all out curtains and bed stuff to it so this make me feel better knowing this is ur recommendation
Well, if I ever have a RUclips channel I’m going to “borrow” from you and start my video with “No one asked but…” and that makes me smile and you’ve got the best giggle and laugh, which is infectious. Hugs from Henderson neighbor ♥️
Arvin, I started following you after the collaboration you did with Karen Brit Chic, and I have literately been binge watching every since. You are just too cute and knowledgeable about all things home. Love your channel.
Floors & lighting are the most impactful to me, if done right, a rich, high quality paint like BM will tie it altogether. That’s where I put my coins. The rest can be slowly found and bought without breaking the bank. Great video Arvin!
❤For wallpaper, I would suggest stick and peel before you commit. Ots a fun way to change up a room, or wall. You may not want wallpaper and can change up stick and peel often as you want. Even renters can do it without damage to wall. Check out Amazon, lowes, home depot😁
I love linen sheets too. They are hard to find here in Canada. I can order them online, but I would never do that without having touched the fabric first.
I stopped seeing your content recommended! So I had to try to find you. I adore your personality, visions, and advice! You've inspired my take for home decor on a spiritual lvl. Bc of the energy you bring, I am obsessed with feng shuing my new home🖤 ty for sharing!
Please do a video on home hardwired lighting as in sconces, chandeliers, Island pendants … how to transition your light fixtures especially in open floor plan homes. I hope that makes sense.❤️
I have SparkPod shower head in both of my shower stalls. They can be shipped to California when many products can’t due to water outflow limit in CA. They both work well and price is good.
I make my own linen bedding. Quality linen is not cheap bit so worth it! Linen breathes bit it will wear and deteriorate quicker than quality cotton as it’s 100% flax.
great advice all around! And the cabinet hardware! Our 69 MCM had white porcelain pulls and replaced with brass pulls. Completely changed! Now I can live with slightly funky till a bigger remodel!
The moment we moved into our new place, we installed smoked glass fluted glass art deco looking ceiling lights from Ikea that were only 20 bucks each and they look so high end!
Now, this was a good video. After watching your video, I went right to Amazon and ordered a set of Linen Sheets, By the way, they were $129,00 with free shipping. I went with the off-white as it goes nicely with our antique furniture.
Question … how much better does the pottery barn feel … because I HATE BUTTONS. Visually the Amazon duvet visually looks higher quality … as in if you held up both duvets and didn’t tell us which brand is which, I would have chosen the Amazon duvet as the more expensive one 🤷🏻♀️… that zipper though, I think I’m in love 😍
Haha normal people do come home to an empty home and usually it is dark before we touch the light switch. It’s called laziness if one can’t be bothered to get up and turn something on and off and when it comes to showering usually people shower twice a day 😁
Thank you, good advice! And yes! If you can project, do your floors before you move in! I think it’s called Berber carpet. Was a huge selling point when I bought 19 years ago. I didn’t really care either way then but now after pets and life, the idea and cost and logistics of replacing these condo floors (soundproofing required) is daunting! But long term underemployed owners like me may just have to live with what they’ve bought. I don’t have a solution. Pleh. But yes, good advice on floors 👍
Totally agree! I've done most of these upgrades myself in this home or previous ones and they do make a world of a difference (except I don't like apps so I just use a simple plus-minus remote control for my lights - it's so nice to control them all at the same time!). What I really need to do though is upgrade my bedlinen to well, linen. I just can't make up my mind about what colour to pick so I've been putting it off, but this is the push that I needed!
@@jimmaisamaila My first investment with Mrs Jane gave me profit of over $24,000 us dollars and ever since then she has never failed to deliver and I can even say she's the most sincere broker I have known
I love the flooring in your home. Ours is just a little bit darker than yours. Wood flooring is just beautiful to me. I still love the color you painted your office. It Really does make a statement in your home. A friend of mine was talking about those light switches. He has been looking for some, after he had heard about them. I'm fixing to tell him to go check them out.
I loved all these tips! Changing the cabinet hardware is such an underrated upgrade that makes such a huge difference! I’ve purchased a few cabinets from IKEA and immediately swapped out the hardware and they are 💯 better! 😍👏🏼
I wish you would do a lighting video. I need a chandelier for a tall ceiling in the living area. I have the dreaded boob fixture and am desperate to get rid of it. You have helped me so much. I am industrial/a little modern. Please help.
Greetings from East Texas! I have MISSED your videos! For some reason I wasn’t getting notifications. Great upgrade information. Love the products. ALSO love your glasses frames! 🤓. Hugs and Blessings to yall
I have grey/taupe flooring and love it, mixing cool and warm is a challenge, but I’ve done it and always get compliments on it. Grey floors get such a bad rap!
we need a dance video of you dancing to your music and then a compilation of all of us doing your moves, then do an Olde Fashioned Vegas Flash Mob. Your sit down dance moves are Superb !! in the immortal words of Rickie Lake, ''LET'S DANCE!!!''
Hello arvin ... i miss you .. how are you... your content is always life-changing and you are still and always my inspiration in terms of cozy home... love3x... pls respond😊
I’m going to go one step further and say HEATED flooring. It’s an absolute game changer; especially in your bedroom and bathroom.
Oh SNAP OKKK. When we move somehwere cold I"ll def do this great idea
Agree! LOVE my heated floors - every bath and also mud room.
My realtors home just caught fire bc of her heated floors!
I can’t do heated, too much EMF radiation. Not healthy
My dad installed a heated floor and towel rack in his bathroom (this was in England so it gets cooooold) and I remember it being heavenly. I'd do it here if I had some F U money lying around

Great idea! 2 color coded wires. So easy to do, even for me!

The red accent sofa is gorgeous😍… it compliments so well with everything
Although my condo was totally remodeled prior to my purchase I replaced every light fixture. What a huge difference, made the condo mine.
my best home investment upgrade would be towel heater🥰 as a person who gets easily cold i love that i can take a bath and not dread going out of the shower especially during fall/winter/spring seasons

I’m with you on coming home to a house that is not dark! I keep my lights on timer was just for that reason.
I love how passionate you are about interior design. Love your energy! Not feeling great today, your positive vibes kind of helped to feel a little better! Thank you 🤍
I love the fact that you guys shower ALMOST every day 😂😂😂

I watched 15 of your videos today... just found your channel this morning and i can't stop watching... you are classy and elegant

YES. Our main living room is still blah lol I wanna change it so bad.
Oh my gosh. I did all of theses to my home! I love your ideas. I even changed out doorknobs and hinges. I had new flooring put in too. Love you!!! Oh almost forgot had my master bath updated and the flooring guy remarked and said it reminded him of a luxury hotel bathroom. It’s gorgeous!

I have some linen bedding but I’m a crispy sheets girl. Highly recommend Red Land Cotton for those old fashioned off-the-clothesline fresh sheets!

My favourites are painting the front door and changing the window treatments.
I swear on that Amazon linen set! I have the natural flax, and it’s absolutely gorgeous.
Where did you purchase that bueatiful sweater! Gorgeous!
Your unique laugh Arvin. You always give us a lift.🥰
I have the Lutron switches and they are AMAZING
Always, love and look forward to seeing what you do next. Keep growing and sharing.
Love to you and yours.

I got my linen bedding from bed threads it was pretty expensive but seriously such nice bedding and so worth it

Thank you for a specific flooring recommendation! I am the same and SO over the gray flooring. The color you chose is perfect!
It’s the vest for me! My husband and I are building our home and I can’t stop watching your videos 😩
You just activated MY studio lights with this video!!! Lol 😂 🙄😂

Can you tell us where to buy your red sofa?
What would you do to the flooring if it is real wood, honey oak color. Would you replace it with engineered wood or work around the real wood?
Where do you buy your big fluffy comforter?
I love your laugh and your energy 🙌🏽🙌🏽
Does anyone know where to find that gorgeous rattan floor lamp (1 minute mark?)?
I like your sweater Arvin. Where did you get it? The linen toss was so funny😮

The sheets throw moment.....ICONIC....HA HA HA!
I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL !!
For the floors, are you talking about rented places or ehen you bought the house.
Also how do you know which flooring is best and which one to get?
Arvin, can you recommend a reasonably priced smooth sheet. Sending hugs from Canada.
Hey Arvin, what's your thoughts on the Pillows where you do the Chop in the Middle of the Pillows?
You have such great ideas love your content so much ❤️
8:30 that's almost exactly what our floors look like 😳
Need a little or big sister? Bc I am obsessed!!! With your fashion! I will absolutely take hand me downs style icon 😍
Oh gosh. Every time you said, Alexa, mine would tell me she couldn’t find what you were talking about.
Lol
Arvin, do you like bedlinens from Georg Jensen?
Love your blouse!😍
Love the video!♥️
For us our shower head upgrades were the number one priority. Nothing worse than getting whiplash trying to catch the water.
Luv the Sawyer pendant light by Anthropology! It's sold out (: Do you have any dupes you can recommend?
Liking this video immediately apon seeing your knitted tank sweetie- so chic I adore 💕
