    Thrifting has provided me with much better furniture and decor than I could ever have purchased new. Makes me so happy.

      Seriously. I'm so glad I learned to thrift furniture. Could never afford what it goes for new.

      Completely agree, I have also bought from Auctions and sold for much more enabling to buy something else I’ve wanted for our home.

    I’m really intrigued by the flooring idea of adding more color to that reddish flooring. It looked AMAZING!!! I NEVER would have thought of adding MORE of that same color would have actually worked!!! LOVED IT!!!!! 💕💕💕💕💕.

    I LOVE the idea of enhancing something you don’t like to make it seem intentional, genius! 99%of the things in my home are thrifted, I absolutely love to thrift for everything. I have a zero threshold shower, I love it. I feel like a professional 😊

    I love thrifting antique artwork - sometimes it's just the frame and sometimes is the whole thing. Antique paintings are the best find. 🙂

    The pillow case idea is awesome, I was just trying to deal with that same issue in our guest room, this trick will make it look so much better. I really love your idea for adding more of the thing you don’t like…..I just love,love, your ideas and videos. Thank you so much!

    • @britneymarsh6320

    • @johnsscarlette
      @johnsscarlette Год назад

      Yes, that was a great idea for the pillow covers, wish I had known about this before I sewed mine smaller. My husband was always comparing about the overhang, so I cut them down and sewed them. He is much happier, but now I know to just fold them in!

    Boy I could use your help in getting my place whipped together . I have watched many of your videos and gleaning from them. Still harder than it sounds . I am

  • @merrywalsh2809
    @merrywalsh2809 Год назад +2

    I liked the idea of leaning in to an element you may not like on its own, but once you tie it in, it looks intentional and high end. Your example was brilliant! ❤

  • @lorifisher5568
    @lorifisher5568 Год назад +4

    I love your videos… So helpful! I thrift a lot, always picking up large canvas and pottery to redesign. Painting pottery with a simple mixture of baking soda and flat paint adds texture, and painting over a canvas is relatively easy and very inexpensive!!!

    @AMcDub0708 Год назад

    I was gonna say “just alter/sew the pillow case smaller, but wow!! That hack was SO quick and looks SO GOOD, why waste the time and effort lugging out the sewing machine?!? I love that hack!!

    I love the leaning into a feature idea. I've done it when replacing my carpet. I have many walnut furniture pieces so using an LVP flooring with several hues allowed me to keep the furniture and modernize the space simultaneously. Love your channel and your ideas. I also took your advice about several kinds of lighting.

    As always, well done, Kristen. Really like the idea of mural wallpaper trimmed out and sight lines from one room to another created with lamp placement. Your ideas are so fresh compared to the repetitive stuff on some other channels. Many thanks! ❤

  • @carpiediem2
    @carpiediem2 Год назад

    The "using what you already have if unable to spend to change it" is spot on! When I moved into my current house, the living room was green. At the time, I had minimal money to make changes to the decor and decided it was "liveable" whilst other rooms needed immediate updates. Green has never been my interior colour of choice, but low and behold, green became the trending colour so I was able to accessorise it really well to the point I've added accents to my bedroom and will do to my daughter's room to tie them altogether.

  • @nina_6789
    @nina_6789 Год назад +3

    Love your pillowcase hack! Also love your hack #2, I always tried to hide something I dislike instead of adding more of it to make it look intentional. That’s thinking outside of the box!

    I love all these design tips. I love that you mentioned about “using or work with what you have”. We just bought a house and the entire downstairs has a good quality hardwood floors which is good. The problem is the color. We plan to maybe refinish it someday, but for now I just have to learn to work with it. And thanks for that particular design tip to use similar finish with decors to make it look intentional. I love that ! And I just subscribed to your channel for more!❤

    I think the continuous flooring would make my master bathroom looks so much bigger. When we get around to removing the garden tub and replacing it with a walk-in shower, I would like to do the flooring truck you suggested.

    @arule2share888 Год назад +2

    I love the mural wallpaper idea. I have very textured walls, so while adhering wallpaper directly to the wall may not work, using a panel to create the same look might do the trick. Thank you for the tip!

    I have throw blankts everywhere! That + overstuffing pillows are my 2 ways to make every room look luxurious. That was interesting advice about leaning into a design feature you don't like (e.g., red floors). I would not have considered that but it makes sense.

    @firestick4991 Год назад +2

    Start with the most bold or obvious elements in the room you have to use, and build around it. It sounds obvious, but people tend to decorate in isolation, because they like a piece or think something matches arbitrarily.
