Happy Sunday Everyone!☀ This is one of the top questions I get asked about decorating, so I thought I'd break this down and give you my top designer tips to create a cohesive home design!
Watching it 🤍
happy Sunday to you also☀ these type of videos are so incredibly easy to do DIY💜
By the time I got a majority of my house done, I was tired of my accent color. How do I go about cheaply/easily changing it without doing an entire overhaul of my house?
Also how do I go about picking an accent color that I won’t get sick of in the future?
This was great!
Mrs Sofia is the best, recommending her to all beginners who wants to recover from their losses and gain more like I did through her strategies.
Yes I'm also a living testimony of expert Mrs sofia
Thanks for the recommendation
I just contacted her and she attends to me nicely
Wow I just make my second withdraw again today trading with expert Mrs sofia
I remember friends calling me crazy when I started but now I shut up them with my four figure weekly returned
Yessss love the cohesive palette idea. This will help me so much! Best takeaway from the video was the lamp shades. I definitely have some work to do there. 😉
Thank you your advices. I learn a lot! I love the table lamp and I can’t find it! Please!
Sage green is my favorite, also. Can you suggest some paints that you’ve found in this gorgeous color? And also a good cream/off white that goes with it? Thanks!
Got some great ideas. Thankyou
👍
Nice sharing
How would the design style in Kristen's lake house home be described?
When I discovered your channel, it changed my life. You’re truly the most kindest, caring, honest & sweetest person in the whole world 🥹 I am so thankful you have a RUclips channel that inspires so many people including myself 👏❤️
I second this!
I especially loved that you mentioned using the same style and color palette throughout. If you keep this uppermost in your mind, any home can look lovely. It doesn’t get boring as some might think, either, because there are so many choices you can make within your desired style. Your style might be eclectic, with a blend of traditional and modern, but if you do that across all rooms, you are winning. You can play with it, selling some things so you can buy others, slowly working toward that balance throughout.
Have you ever thought about doing virtual consultations and designing remotely? Just because I'd be very interested to see the different designs and processes.
I totally agree about staying within a color palette in your home, otherwise it certainly would be choppy, confusing, and with a whole lot of lotta going on. As for lighting, they say that softer lighting can also take years off you - fading wrinkles. Thank you for your great videos! It's always such a pleasure hearing from you!💐
I probably have too many color themes and the kids just coordinate with the characters they want in their bedroom but I’m fine with that. I find it a little refreshing to have a neutral entry and turquoise and brown and red orange in my living room and purple in my kitchen and red and black in my bedroom. Each room is used differently so why not have a different feel? I guess this is a level of design I’m not quite gonna hit😂
The most important thing about your home is that YOU love it 🙂
Then don’t try. No need to be snarky,
It's yours. If c you love it go for it. This is what I love about having something my own. I can do what i want. Grin.
@@brendathorson9409 I did not think she was being snarky.
I agree completely. I don't think there has to be the same theme throughout the house. Like you, I have orange in my sitting room, with forest green, purple theme in my kitchen, fuschia with silver in my hall, and blush pink with whites in my bedroom. Each room can be individual and still look really nice.
*Color Palette* . I have a semi-open concept living room, dining room and kitchen. Sticking with a cohesive color scheme has been game changing. I like to mix the concentration between spaces using a ratio like 80:50:20 or a similar combination. Repetition is also crucial. I used copper as a metallic accent in my fall styling. I find it very pleasing to the eye to see a bit sprinkled around in the vignettes I created.
Im Thinking of doing my rooms white is that a good idea
So many good tips here! I'm getting overwhelmed, because I have an entire townhouse to decorate. I love so many styles and really need to narrow it down.
You'll do fine!
Yes sounds like you're using the decorating style of the 70's... we did each room with a different theme and different floor treatment, YIKES! Being cohesive is so much better and calming.
I’m honestly learning so much from you. Thank you!!!!
Re: cohesive practices in decorating your home; what are your thoughts on window treatments? Should all windows have the same treatments, like shutters, Roller shades, Drapes etc?
I'm liking the color palate idea/notion. Excellent information. It can get overwhelming in stores but sticking to your color palate eliminates a-lot of unusable items and makes much easier purchasing decisions.
Hey Kristen! I was wondering if you could make a video covering the Japandi design style. If you could that would be awesome!!! Your videos are just so helpful.
Hi Kristen great video, I have a playlist of so many of your videos. I am currently 8n the process of building a home which will be finished soon.
❓❓❓I bought the IKEA Hilja curtains to use in every single room of my house with black curtain rods. Do you think that will look nice and elegant?
Thank you for explaining this so clearly. I just found your channel through your "10 Interior Design Styles Explained" video and I immediately subscribed. My home needs so much help!! I've collected so many things through the years and my husband and I have family pieces that are sentimental but nothing really goes together. I pretty much need all these tips, but I think I'll start with a color palette and working in one room and go from there. This video is so helpful!!
That video was how I found her channel too! LoL
Fantastic information. You are spot on in your advice.
This is my first time watching your videos and I’m completely obsessed 😍
I plan to use the same color theme through out as well as the same color curtain rods and curtains, I want to change out the hardwares such as door knobs, faucets etc but it all adds up so I will see.
I love this in theory, but I study history, the things I collect are from different eras and regions, so I’ve decided to create areas within my home that reflect my favourite periods: Baroque, Edwardian, post war French farmhouse, a little bit of vintage cutesy (think mint and chrome toaster), and there is an element of a rustic, weary traveller in there. It’s very eclectic and I’m struggling to keep every room of my home the same colour because it’s very much like a museum now full of interesting things and furnishings I’ve acquired over the years from some equally interesting people. Because the items are significantly older than most peoples homes they have even more interesting stories which I thoroughly enjoy researching. I’ve joked that when I go for a job as a museum curator:guide I will use my home as part of my resume 😅 As a result my home feels like it’s never finished, but I’m sort of okay with that. Now the problem is trying to incorporate my husbands darker MCM decor, and my mum’s insistance on her guest bedroom in the house being Japanese minimalist. I swear I need another house 😂
The problem with making sure all your wood type flooring matches, is that if you don’t buy it all at once, they discontinue it all the time. Its really difficult to match later on when you have the money to do another connecting room.
A fabulous video, Kristen. As a fellow interior & building designer l totally agree with you. 😀
Hi Kristen. Love your vids. Fantastic information. Has helped me so much in understanding so much in interior design etc. Thank you for sharing your expertise. Best on RUclips. Beautiful lady to. Take care. 💜
U r really really creative... Now whenever i decorate my house .. U r ides are always on my minds... Thanks u.. Lots of love from india...
I need to change a couple of my lightbulbs to a soft white. Thanks for the tip.
I commented earlier that softer light takes years off you, reducing wrinkles. 😊
You are amazing 💗
Love it. Thank you for tips.
Sage green is my pop also. Just feels vintage to me and y I like it.
I love the sage greens. I never get tired of the greens. I love them with white, creams and taupes.
Thanks for the great tips! Color palette
Thanks for all your great tips!
Your amazing Kristen. Love , love, love, listening to you share your talents...
Great tips! We are getting ready to do some painting inside our home and I found this video very helpful.
Aah thanks for the great tips Kristen 😌❤️
Todo hermoso un video luctativo inspirado para tus seguidoras felicidades 🤗❤️
Great ideas. Thank you!
Thanks for all of the great information! 😊❤😊
Kristen, as always thank you for the helpful tips especially when it comes to lighting. It makes a big difference and warm lighting will make an impact.
Hi Happy Sunday! I love this great ideas and so helpful!! Thank you so much!! 😊🤗😚💕💖💗💖💕💗💖💕
Can u help me how to organise my Double wardrobe with 4 square departments down the side
Interesting 👍😎🐕🦺❤️
I thanks for sharing 👍 😊 😀 🙂
White shades and soft warm light bulbs, to start. I have one beige shade, now I know why it bugs me.
Thanks ♥️♥️
Hi Kristen,
Could you share your choice of white paint that you you use in your home. And thank you so much for all of your interior design advice. I have learned so much from your videos.!
Than You, Sara from NH
A paint color expert pointed out that the importance of maintaining consistent tonality throughout the home to achieve “flow” - even if you enjoy using different colors throughout the house. So if you’re using a clear yellow in the entry, using mauve or grey in the adjacent room would look odd. In that case an apple green would work better. Dusty/muted colors should stay with one another, jewel tones, too.
As for me, I think unifying a home with one color palette is boring. However, I do believe in the importance of carrying one or two colors from one room to the next. So if the living room is pink/green/lavender, the dining room can be green/pink/gold - and the kitchen gold/green. Green unifies the rooms on the main floor - but a different color takes the lead in each.
Great tips! Any link to your cute top??
What to do about other colors ( like red on the spine on books and colors on artwork i do not want to get rid of?
Incorporate it with your color palette.
@@yourconnection9303 but i do not have that many colors in my color palate
@@annlavine3576 Sherwin Williams paint has just come out with a great color palette. Check it out. It's very helpful. You'll make it work. Have fun with it. 😊
@@yourconnection9303 how does it work? I looked at it
@@annlavine3576 You take the colors on your chosen color palettes and blend in those colors together. What color is your sofa?
Thank you so much for the photo wall advice. Also for the lighting. I love the soft light but I find it too dark for my kitchen. I tried something new today. I just installed a new light fixture yesterday with 4 bulbs. I kept going back and forth on the lighting and decided to put 2 day and 2 soft. Omg... PERFECT. The room looks bright enough but still feels cozy.
What if you bought a place with non-cohesive flooring, how would you suggest making it flow? Thanks
The abaft shark unfortunatly pop because territory regretfully compare at a perpetual swimming. quarrelsome, flat cocktail
Oh dear I give up. I'll stick to numbers and probabilities and percentages and calculus n math.
I am in. I have a small home, painted 3 bedrooms, a bathroom and kitchen. Waiting to paint living and dining room for crown molding removal, but I am driven to get shit done because I am not getting any younger lol but, the lighting deal is confusing lol when I was younger, light bulbs were incandescent and wattage was the selection. What the hell, need to find the soft closest to incandescent.. need some feedback here. Thanks for all the ideas
Kristin, I see that you use Etsy to download prints and I love that idea. Every time I have used Etsy, it seems that my credit card gets hacked and I need to cancel the CC and send for a new one. Have you had this issue, and if not, how do you pay for your Etsy items? I would love for all to weigh in because I really want to use this design hack!
Can you link those warm bright lightbulbs?

Hi how can i get my doors and windows and floor look cohesive ?
I needed this info 🙌
fab
My walls hazy blue- green color ( which I love). But with a warm light bulbs, they look nasty green. So, I prefer cold light. Any options?
I love all the beautiful photos you show! I'm semi-new to your channel (and totally addicted), so forgive me if you've already shared this, but where did you get your boucle chairs? Love you living room!
I really like your videos but this one I think is super!!!
I am trying to refresh a little bit my home, change the colour scheme to a more natural and grey tones, so I am just jump into the two other videos of yours that you are suggesting.
And a question. That design style is your home?
Thank you for your excellent advises ❤️
Great ideas - thank you. I've just found your channel today and I've loved each video. Can't wait to watch more. Thanks

Hello Kristen, I just bought a house and I am really not good at decorating I’ve been watching a lot of your videos and I love them but I still have a few questions and I am hoping you can answer me, Our house is old it has the dark wooden floors and beige walls, what color sofas will look good?
Thank you so much in advance and I really do hope that you can help me.
Jeez I’m watching The video and looking around and thinking about changes haha 🙈😅 feeling inspired as always
This was very informative for me, I like your classy style, very good ideas! Thank you!
How about furniture colors? Should they be the same tone? We have weathered Brown Grey AND my son has a bleach blonde ikea set.
I love this video . Thank you
I was going for some gold, beige, and black palette but made the mistake of buying online for easy purchase and got different tones of beige. the decor is incomplete, and I feel like I made a mistake and cannot undo it now. any advice?
Can you please not speak so fast? My heartbeat elevates when listening to you. Great content btw. Thank you.
Hi Kristen, how many color would you say a color palette should have? Do you have a video on how to select a color pallet, like select a dark and a light and a mid tone. How do I approach it? I find myself just gravitating to blue but not sure what to add to it.
Excellent advise!! My sentiments exactly!! It drives me crazy when I walk into a house and there’s 15 different colors on the walls… It makes me a nervous wreck! And it also makes me crazy when people have 15 million junk objects… somebody has to clean around all that nonsense 😂🤣😂🙄😉
Do you start redecorating in your mind? I do!
Each and every time! Shoot I ride down the road and see a house that is terrible looking and redo it in my mind and think 🤔 that would look much better if they……
@@starlasewell1882 I know! I redo entire neighborhoods in my mind!
What a wonderful video with such great info. Thank you for sharing. Could you tell me what design style you follow in your home? It is gorgeous.
I’m going to look through my home and see if it’s cohesive. Because I’m not really sure. Thanks for a great video.
My color pallet in my condo (front area) are walls painted in a honey neutral wall paint with white trim with a soft teal as accent. The guest bedroom and bathroom (back area) are painted in a sky blue with white trim and with an area rug in the blue/white/honey/tan colors. This is the public area and is contemporary in look. Our primary bedroom is also painted in the light honey colored paint with white trim-and a solid gold/tan area rug. I have a medium wood laminate throughout the entire condo except for the white tile flooring in kitchen and guest bathroom. The ensuite is in the back of the condo and guests do not see this and the colors are soft browns tans/and a muted teal/gray tiles against dark cabinet and with white double sink. All the handles and pulls throughout are a sterling silver tone and all the doors are painted white like the trim.
I adore all of your videos and cannot wait for each one that comes out next! You are so you are so knowledgeable, beautiful and bright full and bright and I love your design style! I always ove learning new tips and tricks from you..
Wonderful video… We have been in our home for 40 years.. About 8 yrs ago we started to redecorate and doing what you talked about in this video… Making things look cohesive.. It really takes time.. Determining our style has been a challenge since my husband likes a different style than me.. Trying to meet in the middle.
I love their home
Love the idea of reupholstering my headboard, if I knew how😅
I do this in my home! Every room except my sons room. He does his own decorating in his room as he loves Anime.
I love it because when you want a new look you can just swap furniture and accessories between the rooms and it looks new again
I love your videos! Thanks for making them!

Great info, now I have to go back and watch the your video about design styles to find what my true design style is🧡🤩
Thanks for another great video! What is the plant you have behind you? I love it!
I would say that this is possibly the very best video I’ve seen on home decor! thank you so much Kristen..
Can you tell me the paint colour you used on your wall in your living room? Great tips btw!
I have a lot of sage green as well in my house. I like light, calming colors for decor.
I really wish that she would have addressed tips for creating cohesion with different types of wood furniture
Never thought about the lamp shades before, but wow you’re so right!
Hey agree with the lamp shade I've noticed light color gives the best shade x
What do you recommend for kitchen flooring into carpet . We have to keep carpet in our home.
