    Western goth is super interesting to me. I have an alternative style that’s inspired by Spanish gothic architecture and modern gothic. I’m also Mexican so I’m always adding elements of my culture in my decor like (black) terracotta items. I would love to see you talk more about this style as you have a very contemporary gothic style that I aspire to have.

    We bought a home 13 years ago that had a beautiful water fountain out front. The owners had tossed two gold fish in the water. Lovely until we ended up the buyers. We knew nothing about caring for them. We fed them but struggled with how to keep it clean. Then, the first freeze was warned. Hubby was working out of town so I grabbed a Home Depot bucket and brought them inside. This led to a small aquarium that was easy to manage. However, Goldfish grow to fill up the size of their tank. Bigger tanks followed and sorrow followed as individuals passed away. Last year we finally lost the last of the original two and after 12 years, it broke our hearts. We are turning 65 this year and keeping up that tank has lost its appeal. We are fighting the desire to find a “friend” for the “friend” of the last original goldfish ( named Goldie by the way) but do not want to keep lengthening the years of aquarium care. We took this life into our care and it deserves the best quality we can provide. This time, it will need to live a life as single because we have no desire to be cleaning that tank out in our 80’s!

      Not to scare you but goldfish can live into their 70s with good care. Maybe find a person or a local pond shop that can find it a good home or a large pond to have a community to live with

      I had a seawater aquarium way before and I named my different fishes, Celebrity names, like Jennifer Lopez , Britney Spears, Sandra Bullock, Julia Roberts, Jennifer Aniston, Angelina Jolie, and Drew Barrymore. One day, my husband who was deployed at that time, called from overseas and I told him that Brittney Spears died and he replied, "That is sad. She is very young to die. What is the cause of her death?" Realizing that he was referring to the real Brittney Spears, I answered him, "Oh, it was our fish..." 😅😂😂😂😂

    I had a nice compliment today. A well known cartoon artist (won’t drop his name) stopped in the other day and later told my husband how beautiful our house is & it looks like a model home. To me it’s a simple (new) ranch, but I have styled it well. The dining room is empty as we wait for it to be painted & new furniture. Sometimes I think we’re hard on ourselves and someone else sees it with fresh eyes & gives a different perspective.

    Love your enthusiasm and appreciate how well you showcase the products you enjoy. Several years ago, we tried an experiment - instead of buying house stuff, we gave the same amount of money to a scholarship fund at a local college. The experiment was designed to last one year, and it was the beginning of our journey to own fewer things. Your thoughts about buying quality pieces resonate with me.

    I love that Ralph Lauren went directly to the Dineh for inspiration. They are expert weavers and sewers and have great graphic fabric designs and rich natural dyed pieces. I’ve been toying with piecing together a quilted jacket using crosses and hadn’t made the connection till this video that the cross quilt designs most likely originated in Dineh weaving designs.

    The kitsch trend should have come with more of a major warning, I was eating breakfast! I have V’s voice, discipline and passion in my head to stick to the mood board and plan for each room and compare that to each trend video. Love the raw wood trend for a piece or two. Bleaching my buffet has totally refreshed it, made it look bigger and is giving me a sense of calm and style (added modern matte black handles). It was stained orange and always made me feel stressed.

    Aquariums are a way of life. You have to really be on top of it, or hire someone to maintain it, like you would with a pool or your landscaping. There are people who do that as a service, for a somewhat reasonable price. If you love the look, but worry about keeping things alive, search locally for an “aquarium maintenance service,” or ask your local aquarium/fish store if they can recommend someone in your area.

    *Quality and a Go-to Palette* . At 56, I've gone through many styles in different homes on different budgets. The pieces that have stayed with me over the years reflect a shape/color/ function that are invaluable to me and some of them were flat-pack-put-together pieces but they have stood the test of time. I will keep to my warm earthy palette as that is what brings me joy, peace and calm. One thing I've learned over the years is having a cohesive identity to the home and that takes time.

    I grew up in NM and my parents home and many others had lots of Native American art. Now living in CO I see a lot of western decor. Gothic western may be a trend but western style doesn't seem like a trend in the west. It has been around for a long time. It can be beautiful but it is hard to mix with other styles so it feels limiting.
    Look at 2 Grey Hills Navajo rugs though. They can be very expensive but very beautiful and generally the colors are black, white and grey, and sometimes a touch of red

    Speaking on disposable furniture: I have bought my fair share of it and I’ve made many mistakes. About ten years ago I started looking at furniture in a different way. I only wanted to buy things that could be heirloom pieces. I really appreciate Amish made furniture. If you can’t find the right vintage piece I would encourage looking at buying directly from the Amish if you can. They don’t just make country looking pieces. They have modern and classic pieces that you can customize the wood and the stain. It lasts forever and it will be something you can pass down. Also, look into if family members have things they don’t want that are good quality. I have a birdseye maple writing desk that was the first piece my mom ever bought at a flea market. I needed a vanity for my bedroom and my mom didn’t want it anymore. It fits perfectly in the small spot in my bedroom that I was going to put a vanity. It’s more beautiful than anything I would have bought and it’s special to me.

So, much $ spent and put the goldfish in and then notice it is missing an eye! Now, the lesson is just because it’s missing an eye does not mean it isn’t a fish! We named it Rooster Cogburn (after John Wayne character ) and he lived longer than the other free fish! Lol! Which by the way was maybe a couple of months!

    I have mixed feelings about the 'disposable furniture'. At present, I have a couple of sofas that I got from Amazon for just under $500 ea a couple years ago when moving into the new house. The style was perfect for the transitional contemporary home: royal blue, tufted, low profile, straight lines, but they were obviously cheap. I still have them and so far they are holding-up, so I believe they were an "ok" investment. However, I have no misconception that they will last like the Ethan Allen bedroom set we just got for the primary bedroom. Of course, the bedroom set (bed, two nightstands, and a bench) totaled $8,000 (and that doesn't include a mattress, bedding, dresser, etc.). Sometimes you just have to go with the disposable furniture.
    BTW - We have a primary retreat room off of our primary bedroom and, as inspired by the House of Valentina, we did the room in the Dark Academia style. It looks beautiful.

    I LOVE the idea of western goth. I grew up in Tucson and it sounds like the “Territorial” style common there, or Spanish Colonial (frontier Baroque). The west was settled during the Victorian era so combine rugged western materials with Spanish vaquero, First Nation and Victorian style and you have southern Arizona. Add in a lot of avant- guard artists and you’ll see Western Goth. I think they are putting a name to a style that already exists in the artsy west but is escaping its original area. Retablos, Nichos, Cristos Negros, carvings of Saints and other Spanish Colonial religious art, deep velvet with silver embellishments, baroque shapes in wrought iron… this is just normal stuff in Arizona, New Mexico, west Texas…

The Western style isn't for me personally, but I do like it a lot. I think you have to have a certain style house for it to really work well. My 1980 ranch style home wouldn't work with that style!

    Also...
    1. I think the whole Gothic Western vibe is interesting, but probably not going to be a widespread thing, since good design reflects where you are and who you are, and honestly most "places" aren't "out west."
    2. Well-maintained aquariums are far from depressing, at least for those of us who have fish that have been around for 3, 7, 9yrs... They're also fantastic for families with younger kids, as watching the fish swim can be very emotionally regulating. They're a lot of work, for sure, but done WELL I think it's worth it. Speaking entirely from my own experience 😂 take my experience with a grain of salt though, as we have twin 8yr olds, 2 golden retrievers, 2 cats, and 21 fish, and it takes a LOT of work to keep things "well-maintained" and looking nice.
    3. As a millennial, I also don't welcome "kitsch" in my house. It feels very plastic and artificial and almost contrary to the whole point of trying to build a lasting/sustainable/high quality cohesive home.

    Happy New Year, Valentina. Being more traditional/classic these would not be for me. I can appreciate the Western style, actually like it if I had a cabin somewhere. Aqua texture, a bit mental….😂 Sorry. Go to the aquarium if you need to chill out with fish and water. Trends are usually silly. Furniture should be high quality, long lasting and able to be passed down to the next generation. I think your home has turned out beautifully. The exterior looks great. Looking forward to your interior plans for the new year. The paint color video was good.

    I agree with you about the aquatics, you really have to be dedicated and committed to it in the long-term, if not, then don't go there!

    I love color but in the traditional sense not the boho but whatever, I am so not a kitchen gadget person. I still make toast in my skillet just like my mom taught me.

    I also say “no” to any theme rooms. Just a dab will do it. I don’t want to look like a scene from Yellowstone. A few pieces? Ok.. a mean a FEW. I still love my cowhide rug for example. I say this as an equestrian. 🤷🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

    Fun video, I like the western goth idea, it will be an interesting one to keep an eye on. Love Yellowstone, Ralph Lauren, horses and the romance of a simpler time (Ha!). I'm with you Valentina, when our last goldfish died I felt sad and guilty about his being alone in a bowl for so long . . .did he die of loneliness or was the bowl too small?

    We buy beautiful quality furniture, but we bought a little table for our garden from Home Goods. It broke within a few weeks. No more cheap furniture!

    I would be afraid to buy furniture that one would sit on from Amazon. I did buy a glass unit for the pantry & it’s fine. We just purchased, from a furniture store, new dining set and office furniture. I had to sell my beautiful 20 year old dining set. It was too orange tone for this open floor plan. It made me sad.

    I agree with you on the fish tanks. I mean no harm to anyone who has them, but seeing a fish in a glass tank breaks my heart. Don't get me started on fishbowls.

    We live in New Mexico, and our decor is Western (without the Gothic). Leather furniture, fine-crafted wood tables, Navajo rugs hanging on the walls, and local artists' paintings and sketches. When you live in an adobe-built house, windows are few, spread out, and small; therefore, there is NO Gothic Black! The walls are plaster white. It is very comfortable to live in and hang out with friends. Oh, the floors are brick (not the color, the real thing. Pick up a brick, and it is dirt all the way to China). My Koi live outside in a huge pond.
