New sofa is GREAT in that room! Swap out the coffee table for sure-right now, the three upholstered, rectangle items (couches and bench) in the sitting area leaves no negative space for the eye to rest. My suggestion: A simple, VERY LOW coffee table in walnut or burlwood wood would be so chic. I’m envisioning something that feels modernist and Japanese-low, chunky legs and a surface for styling that still allows a sight line that is lower than the sofas (again, right now all three are the same height, and it’s visually cluttered at that sight line).
I much prefer your vlog videos (I love seeing people’s homes!). Suggestions to mix it up: - “7 favorite items in my house” - how to create a vignette - FB marketplace window shopping (when you’re actually on the hunt for something)
Honestly just removing the foam on top of the table will already create that movement, and she just needs to style it with items on different heights. However, if possible, swap it out.
I think swaping the couches, and having the striped one in front of the windows might look good. As it probably has a lower back it will let in more light and it wont clash with the backround of kitchen cabinets, barstools, shelving unit etc. Great fabric choice!
I think the armless sofa where it is is good because it keeps it a bit more open in that back part of the living room where the corner of the room and bookcases and entry to hall and kitchen all are . I think the sofa with arms and higher back there would just bull it up to much in and already busy tight spot
i love your vlog style videos so i selfishly appreciate that this is the result of your burnout, but take whatever time you need in whichever way best benefits you
Paige I think you’re so awesome and endearing I don’t think you need to worry about your online presence being visible to people you’re dating. I think you cast a great impression
I'd change the location of the sofas! I'd put the brown one where the new one is and viceversa. And maybe, because the ottoman is also a rectangle I'd choose a different shape to avoid three parallel lines. I love your creativity!
I LOVE the new sofa! I would place it where you currently have your other sofa, I think it would work better with a less 'noisy' background to bring up the beautiful pattern a bit more.
I LOVE all your videos but I do really enjoy the "non sit down ones", just seeing you potter around the house with everyday life is so comforting and soothing to me
Long time sewing person here: next time you do this, do not attach a liner. Take the fabric side, fold your fabric over about 2-3 inches and sew about 1/2 inch from the top to hold the seam. Lay the liner over the fabric panel on the floor (the way it will hang on the rod). Make the top edge even and mark the holes. Learn how to sew a button hole! You can do it and it’s really fun! Make a button hole for each mark you marked being sure to make the hole going up and down, not sideways. Now you can hand the linen panel on your hooks! Voila! It’s going to look fabulous!
Agree with this 100%! The fabric loops should be separate from the curtain. Hem the top and bottom of the curtain. It makes it stronger, too. Sew a large button onto one end of the loop, and make a button hole on the other end. Put the loop through the curtain and liner, and then loop it over the rod, finishing with the button through the buttonhole. Adjust the button so it looks nice, either on the inside or outside of the curtain.
Love the room with two sofas . The chairs were great but this new arrangement is so cozy looking, and has a sort of old-fashioned vibe that goes with the architecture.
I love the new sofa. great choice of style and fabric. I feel the coffee table thing isn't quite working, it's all feeling quite rectangular, maybe some other shapes would be nice. different scale of things. little side table instead, idk
The ottoman isn't functional enough to sub as a coffee table and it's too heavy in relation to the other pieces. I agree with Paige that there is too much fabric. I do love the ottoman so maybe it belongs in another part of the home.
Love the new couch and the fabric on it! It looks super cozy. It has less detail than the chairs did, so it blends more seamlessly in the room. I personally think you need a coffee table that's "hard," like a chrome glass-topped table. It would give a little edge and sparkle (reflection) because there *is* a lot of fabric, as you said.
Anything other that the new piece of "art" she put up. It sticks out like a sore thumb. I'd put a large mirror up with some curves around the top - don't add more wood, add metal - so a metal framed mirror with some scroll on the top - the room is all angles... It needs some soft lines for balance. Paige's taste with the wood and classic 60s kind of modern/woodsy vibe has an architectural feel. I could see modern art there, a big RED Rothko kind of thing with a black line and a bit of white. Just remove the tech looking collage that doesn't fit at all anywhere in that apartment.
Paige! One of the few, the proud, the male viewer. Just finished binge-ing (binging?) from the beginning. This has become one of my favorite channels. Your informal, laid back film/production style is so refreshing to the over produced video landscape YT has become. Hope you don't think that means the video quality is low. The little vignettes, photos, and shot framing are all excellent. Your design style is awesome, and very helpful at introducing new stores, artists, and designs/layouts I haven't seen before. Your personality is so great for this format, it's funny, not so serious, or preachy. Also, never stop saying what you're about to do, even though we know you're gonna do it, definitely makes it a bit more fun. Carry on!
You can purchase hooks for your shower curtain that have two sides attached. One side is used for the decorative fabric and one side for the shower liner.
I like the barstools behind the lovely new sofa. Maybe, reupholster the barstools getting rid of the gray color in a fabric solid color but lots of texture.
Please create a Check Out This Home series coffee table book (or any coffee table book) so I can give you my money. Taking screenshots doesn’t cut it. I want to touch the pretty pictures! And read cute little asides. I appreciate you!
Love the sofa!!! As for video ideas: I would love to see more of your ideas for blank spaces if your subscribers! Would be so cool to see how you would furnish real places all over the world! ❤️
The room is really coming together and I like the new sofa. I think that the barstools could do with a reupholster in something brighter, like that pop of neon you always refer to, yet not really neon… maybe a a bright olive or chartreuse solid.
I really like the new couch. I love the fabric. I think it was a good idea to stuff the couch more---and unless you're completely opposed to it, you might want to add a twin-size foam mattress pad to the bottom side of the stuffing for a little more "form." Also, perhaps you might want to add tie-downs to the corners of the cushion. As it is right now, it reminds me of a pool float the way it V-s up when you sit on it. I don't mean to sound critical because I really do like it.
I honestly think bringing the old fireplace art would help the sofa situation. The green in that art pops and gives life to the room and I’d pull some of those green shades in throw pillows.
Obsessed with the couch and the fabric with your bookshelves! Also I would love your opinion on how to style throw pillows like fabrics, sizing, how many, where to buy and all that. Its probably the thing I struggle with the most in design and it seems like it should be the easiest.
Lynne here from Canada. Hi Paige I’d def change the coffee table to an oval as everything is so rectangular. Love the sofa. Your relaxed style of video is lovely, I really enjoy your channel. Kudos to you for videoing even when you don’t feel up to it. I know it’s hard but do it anyway. Be kind to yourself.
Please do a video about decorating with record players and records. Or making a music spot. It is so relaxing and fun! Also, consider buying a simple folding table from Costco, Walmart or other that you can pull out quickly when u need to sew or have to make a project😀. See if u can slip it under your couch, bed or closet. Love your channel! It is so authentic and inspiring!
I honestly burst out laughing and had tears rolling down my face when you were re-enacting walking along the road and also your Halloween bit. I watched it three times 😂I loved the print of the medium sized bag and I'm sure you will come up with something perfect as a liner. Absolutely love your channel!!!
The silky medium tote!! I just followed an old vogue bag pattern and the lining was detached and loose on the inside of the bag … sewn in at the top hem. It felt really nice that it wasn’t connected to the outside at the bottom - and also keeps the outer shape when you put things in it. But you def need a good thick/ stiff lining … don’t we all lol
A video where subscribers to send you links to art / objects they think you’ll love from their town could lead to some interesting discoveries from around the world. (mine would be Food for Everyone posters from Melbourne)
Paige! Where did the video about decorating basements go? Loved that one since I'm renovating my own basement later on and would like to watch it again.. Also your hair & style? Stunning!
I like the new couch, the fabric is great! Maybe swap the couches so that the old one goes where the new one currently is? It's hard to say for sure without actually being in the space, but maybe it looks a little big right there? I'm thinking about walkways and just having some air around it. I've never been the biggest fan of the bench/coffee table personally, can't put my finger on exactly why because I like the shape and concept of it! Maybe something like the Hay Kofi coffee table could look nice there?
I love the fabric of the couch! Such a great choice! I also like the green curtain much better in the bathroom because it compliments the blue tile. The tote bags are beautiful as well!
Would love more vlogs like from you! I loved your vlog you did working as a set decorator. It would be cool to see more day in the life vlogs or you working on set or even weekly vlogs! But I love your home updates videos there my favourite x
For the shower curtain, I would use sew-on snaps. You can get a bigger size than what you would use for clothes and I think they would make it easy to take the curtain on and off without using metal hoops. You could also use them to attach the plastic liner, that way you don't have to bother with buttons and making button holes. I think a lot of the charm of the original curtain was the pattern mixing between the straps and curtain so doing something similar but adding snaps would keep that look but make it easier to clean. Also, for the silky tote, I would use a stiffer fabric for the side panel so that the bottom is a little more durable and then add interfacing to the silk to give the whole thing more structure! You have a fantastic eye and I love watching your channel :) Also, the new couch is gorgeous.
Obsessed with the new couch!! But yeah I’m with the people.. coffee table fabric is no longer giving. I think the ottoman can still work, but just needs a new fabric. Also, not essential, but the fabric on the bar stools is throwing me off a bit now, but could look better in person? Also, also… LOVE the bags. I need the mini 🤩
I think the new sofa is awesome! Its the most beautiful thing in the room. you might change the Polster of the coffeetable (beige or green?) or change the carpet and put it in your bedroom?
Hi! You have such good taste! The sofa fit in so well, but I agree with you, would find another table. The new showercurtain was much better. Also love the bags!
love your vids and style so much. kind of wish you’d done a moodboard for the bathroom, or a video about how to create a colour scheme for bathrooms/kitchens with coloured tiles you can’t change. the teal is such a statement for me and i’d have no idea what colours to pair with it tbh! i like the idea of red and teal but agree that the first shower curtain just wasn’t right. again, would love to see your process in how to marry colours together :^)
Try swapping the location of the couches to check for balance? It feels like you have more breathing room closer to the door, which would better accommodate the new, more substantial sofa? On the shower curtain, it's only worth doing if you're improving on what's out there. Your choice of fabric can elevate the offering, but it's hard to improve on the essential ease of movement the steel ball hooks provide. If you could use those hooks but essentially hide them, THAT would be amazing. Make the curtain with a pinch pleat vibe, but add a hem tape with sewn-in gaps, low enough from the top edge to insert and completely hide the easy-glide hooks?
Love the long straps and I would even continue them at the bottom of the bag. Can't wait for this one to come out! Love the couch, fits perfectly with the shelves.
I love the home updates! Also kinda love this branch tree segment lol, would be fun to see more branch styling tips !! Would be also fun a video of you showing us how to style a table for dinner parties (since holidays are coming)! Lastly your old videos are great and you should be so proud of them but I also believe that it could be weird for you, love the couch, yes to shorten the straps of the large tote and great shower curtains!!!!
I love the sofas, they warm your room , as the walls are painted & the colour is quite cool in colour, looks quality as well, love the zesty shower curtain colours. 🔥🤛🏻🇬🇧👏🏻👏🏻xxx
Inflation and Recessions are part of the economic cycle, all you can do is make sure you're prepared and plan accordingly. I graduated into a recession (2009). My 1st job after college was aerial acrobat on cruise ships. Today I'm a VP at a global company, own 3 rental properties, invest in stocks and biz, built my own business, and have my net worth increase by $500k in the last 4 years.
You need a Financial Advisor my friend so you don't get ripped off in the market. They provide personalized advice to individuals based on their risk appetite, placing them among the best of the best. There are bad ones, but some with good track records can be very good.
I know I've wanted to start investing for a few months, but just haven't had the courage to start because the market has been down for most of this year. Please how can I reckon with such skills and what are his services like?
That’s awesome I had some stocks through my work & IRA accounts But I didn’t see any returns & after I left there I made the mistake of of not transferring it so I was paid out before I could-lately, I haven’t worked for a while for a company that I could invest in stocks with, so I don’t know where to start. It just seems so risky now.
I would like to see you do some home decor shopping and update home with it. I know these videos are being done a lot. But, I would like to see your take on doing it. Just had to say, I love that tote bag, the material is beautiful.
I love the sofa! It looks really great with your shelves. I might try to find/make a pillow or pillows that brings in the color of your other couch or your rug. And yes to reupholstering your stools. You could find better fabric.
I love the new sofa! I agree with the others who have said to swap the placement of the two sofas, and to exchange the coffee table for something that isn't black and is less rectangular. Also I feel like the 3rd piece of your MCM wall unit that's on the other wall is sort of making the room too busy and crowded. I wonder if you could move that piece to your office (until you maybe one day have a living space where all three of the pieces of the wall unit can fit side by side).
I think it looks great! Just needs something as a pop of color like bright red or orange or maybe even a blue! Right now the tones of everything are similar so there’s nothing to move the eye around from spot to spot
I love the home updates! I’d love to see you talk more about how best address large collections with simple thoughtful sustainable design. Examples- plant collections, rare books, crystals/minerals, family photos, cute thrifted items like different colored vases.
I agree with the comments to swap the sofas, so the background for the new one is less busy. And I love the home update an check out this f**** home the most from all your videos so don’t worry :)
Do you have any advice for styling millennial gray walls and flooring? I have a new apartment and I’m struggling to brighten it up and add color. I unfortunately can’t paint.
The new sofa is great! You do, however, have a lot of upholstery going on and wood, wood, and more wood. I would add some metal accents in some capacity, possibly change out the barstools for metal ones with comfortable seat cushions only instead of entire upholstered chair tops. Make the coffee table oval, you've got a lot of linear elements. Definitely change out the fireplace art for something else. Maybe switch out some of the mantel decor to add in some small hand forged/rustic metal pieces there as well. Mix it up!
Brilliant fabric selection for your new sofa🤩 Have you tried switching the location of the 2 sofas? Also, some patterned cushions on the solid sofa, will help the 2 mesh more. A brown men’s suiting fabric will be lovely on your bench/ottoman. Thank you for sharing your adventures🌞 Wishing you light and love precious soul🕊️
❤ golly that couch looks like the most comfortable thing ever. The first couch looks much better now, too. I was still not sold on that first couch but the second may have brought me on board. Because my opinion on that matter matters at all hahah. New curtain does look better, too. I liked the first one but you’re right, it was too heavy. This was so chaotic and I loved it. I’m so glad you’re on RUclips, Paige.
For the curtain loops I would sew one end of the loop piece to the top and then cut a button hole on the other end of the loop piece. Then sew large buttons on the interior side where you can then hang the shower liner from (they usually have pre cut holes that could could slip over each button) and then secure with the loop over it ( loop basically sandwiches the liner)
The new shower curtain is a hit, a massive improvement on the previous one. The new sofa is also a hit, and the only thing throwing the living room area off now is the ottoman. If you want to keep it, I would suggest reupholstering it in a green fabric and swapping out its legs for metal ones. And also add some green cushions on either of the sofas. If you are not adamant on keeping it, get a round glass, or metal, (preferably chrome), or stone table. It would create a beautiful tension with all the other warm materials in the space. Loved the episode! 👍
Take us to the fabric stores.
Yes!
I agree! I would love to see the process of shopping for fabric!
on it
Thanks 👏👏👏
That’s boring as h
New sofa is GREAT in that room! Swap out the coffee table for sure-right now, the three upholstered, rectangle items (couches and bench) in the sitting area leaves no negative space for the eye to rest. My suggestion: A simple, VERY LOW coffee table in walnut or burlwood wood would be so chic. I’m envisioning something that feels modernist and Japanese-low, chunky legs and a surface for styling that still allows a sight line that is lower than the sofas (again, right now all three are the same height, and it’s visually cluttered at that sight line).
I much prefer your vlog videos (I love seeing people’s homes!). Suggestions to mix it up:
- “7 favorite items in my house”
- how to create a vignette
- FB marketplace window shopping (when you’re actually on the hunt for something)
Even two smaller square tables would be better.
I second low coffee table. I have a 10” tall one. It is great for resting my feet on it and not competing with seat height.
@@coltlegsyes me too . Love seeing how people live. Anyway love the new sofa
Honestly just removing the foam on top of the table will already create that movement, and she just needs to style it with items on different heights. However, if possible, swap it out.
The home updates are my favorite videos.
Mine also.
I think swaping the couches, and having the striped one in front of the windows might look good. As it probably has a lower back it will let in more light and it wont clash with the backround of kitchen cabinets, barstools, shelving unit etc. Great fabric choice!
yesss!!!

I think the sofa with arms and higher back there would just bull it up to much in and already busy tight spot
YESS
Make a tablecloth for your outside table with the shower curtain fabric. It's a nice color combo with nature.
Yes! It would work great outdoors! I also thought about the possibility of using the fabric to cover or slip cover the counter stools.
i love your vlog style videos so i selfishly appreciate that this is the result of your burnout, but take whatever time you need in whichever way best benefits you
Also loveee the lil personal updates. Can’t relate to her stunning home but I can to her vulnerability 😅❤️
Paige I think you’re so awesome and endearing I don’t think you need to worry about your online presence being visible to people you’re dating. I think you cast a great impression
I like how Paige went from saying she’ll never buy an armless sofa to buying an armless sofa. #growth
Yes I remember that lol
lol don't tell her that Caroline said "if you have an armless sofa, just don't invite me over"
@@missknisely bahahaha I remember that too
The shower curtain you don't like is awesome for Christmas.
I think it works well bc she has the other sofa with arms, so this one can function as a sleeper sofa for guests.
I'd change the location of the sofas! I'd put the brown one where the new one is and viceversa.
And maybe, because the ottoman is also a rectangle I'd choose a different shape to avoid three parallel lines.
I love your creativity!
I LOVE the new sofa! I would place it where you currently have your other sofa, I think it would work better with a less 'noisy' background to bring up the beautiful pattern a bit more.

Long time sewing person here: next time you do this, do not attach a liner. Take the fabric side, fold your fabric over about 2-3 inches and sew about 1/2 inch from the top to hold the seam. Lay the liner over the fabric panel on the floor (the way it will hang on the rod). Make the top edge even and mark the holes. Learn how to sew a button hole! You can do it and it’s really fun! Make a button hole for each mark you marked being sure to make the hole going up and down, not sideways. Now you can hand the linen panel on your hooks! Voila! It’s going to look fabulous!
Agree with this 100%! The fabric loops should be separate from the curtain. Hem the top and bottom of the curtain. It makes it stronger, too. Sew a large button onto one end of the loop, and make a button hole on the other end. Put the loop through the curtain and liner, and then loop it over the rod, finishing with the button through the buttonhole. Adjust the button so it looks nice, either on the inside or outside of the curtain.
Love the room with two sofas . The chairs were great but this new arrangement is so cozy looking, and has a sort of old-fashioned vibe that goes with the architecture.
I agree wholeheartedly.
Don’t shorten the straps because I love that you can wear as a crossbody
I love the new sofa. great choice of style and fabric. I feel the coffee table thing isn't quite working, it's all feeling quite rectangular, maybe some other shapes would be nice. different scale of things. little side table instead, idk
Or maybe two square tables?
100% agree, I feel like the black of the table isn't totally working also
The ottoman isn't functional enough to sub as a coffee table and it's too heavy in relation to the other pieces. I agree with Paige that there is too much fabric. I do love the ottoman so maybe it belongs in another part of the home.
Love the new couch and the fabric on it! It looks super cozy. It has less detail than the chairs did, so it blends more seamlessly in the room.
I personally think you need a coffee table that's "hard," like a chrome glass-topped table. It would give a little edge and sparkle (reflection) because there *is* a lot of fabric, as you said.
Yes!👍
I like the glass idea!
Loving the new sofa. I think a mirror above the fireplace would look great x
Anything other that the new piece of "art" she put up. It sticks out like a sore thumb. I'd put a large mirror up with some curves around the top - don't add more wood, add metal - so a metal framed mirror with some scroll on the top - the room is all angles... It needs some soft lines for balance.
Paige's taste with the wood and classic 60s kind of modern/woodsy vibe has an architectural feel. I could see modern art there, a big RED Rothko kind of thing with a black line and a bit of white. Just remove the tech looking collage that doesn't fit at all anywhere in that apartment.
Paige! One of the few, the proud, the male viewer. Just finished binge-ing (binging?) from the beginning. This has become one of my favorite channels. Your informal, laid back film/production style is so refreshing to the over produced video landscape YT has become. Hope you don't think that means the video quality is low. The little vignettes, photos, and shot framing are all excellent.
Your design style is awesome, and very helpful at introducing new stores, artists, and designs/layouts I haven't seen before. Your personality is so great for this format, it's funny, not so serious, or preachy. Also, never stop saying what you're about to do, even though we know you're gonna do it, definitely makes it a bit more fun. Carry on!
P.S. you're a youtuber now, you need YT style merch. Little idea, a chartreuse shirt that simply says: y'know? or ya know?
I love your home updates, there cant be too many of those :) just a thought, would also love to see your wardrobe, love your accessories and style.
Yes! Paige pls do this 🌻
You can purchase hooks for your shower curtain that have two sides attached. One side is used for the decorative fabric and one side for the shower liner.
I have those and it is a game changer
It kind of looks like that's what she has already.
She had those in the video. She wants to not use hooks.
You kept it real with us in those videos and we understood you were going through something ❤ I enjoy listening to your real life stories. 🙂
Was worried I was going to miss the chairs but the sofa is actually so so beautiful! I also like seeing the stools behind it!
I like the barstools behind the lovely new sofa. Maybe, reupholster the barstools getting rid of the gray color in a fabric solid color but lots of texture.
I can’t wait for WAS to release shower curtains
Please create a Check Out This Home series coffee table book (or any coffee table book) so I can give you my money. Taking screenshots doesn’t cut it. I want to touch the pretty pictures! And read cute little asides.
I appreciate you!
Love this idea and second it 100%
Love the sofa!!!

Nice mirror above fireplace? Beautiful couch and shower curtain.
I love the couch but I did think the grey barstool.behind weren't quite working.

The way your face said “I’m over life” when the leaf blower guy was there made me laugh so I thank you🤣❤️🙏
i loveeee this style of video + the "check out this f***ing home" series. LOVE
The first shower curtain is fun for Christmas.
I like the sofa’s fabric very much. Maybe contrasting pillows would make it ?
PAIGE YOU ARE AWESOME! Beautiful as well, just like your home! Love your style in general - personal style, interior style and fashion style!!! X
incredible comment!
Lynne here from Canada. Hi Paige I’d def change the coffee table to an oval as everything is so rectangular. Love the sofa. Your relaxed style of video is lovely, I really enjoy your channel. Kudos to you for videoing even when you don’t feel up to it. I know it’s hard but do it anyway. Be kind to yourself.
Paige love the new shower curtain ! So light and bright! Love, love your new couch and it looks so comfy!!♥️ I love the Paige bag!
Please do a video about decorating with record players and records. Or making a music spot. It is so relaxing and fun!
Also, consider buying a simple folding table from Costco, Walmart or other that you can pull out quickly when u need to sew or have to make a project😀. See if u can slip it under your couch, bed or closet. Love your channel! It is so authentic and inspiring!
Love the sofa. The stripe is really good.
23:12 when you jumped on the couch I was so scared you were one of those Americans who wears shoes inside and ON THE COUCH. Love the couch though!
the longer straps are what make it unique and a vibe don’t change it!
I honestly burst out laughing and had tears rolling down my face when you were re-enacting walking along the road and also your Halloween bit. I watched it three times 😂I loved the print of the medium sized bag and I'm sure you will come up with something perfect as a liner. Absolutely love your channel!!!
I LOVE the color of the new shower curtain with the color of the tile trim. So fresh 🤌
The silky medium tote!! I just followed an old vogue bag pattern and the lining was detached and loose on the inside of the bag … sewn in at the top hem. It felt really nice that it wasn’t connected to the outside at the bottom - and also keeps the outer shape when you put things in it. But you def need a good thick/ stiff lining … don’t we all lol
omg the couch looks stunning
A video where subscribers to send you links to art / objects they think you’ll love from their town could lead to some interesting discoveries from around the world.
(mine would be Food for Everyone posters from Melbourne)
Paige! Where did the video about decorating basements go? Loved that one since I'm renovating my own basement later on and would like to watch it again.. Also your hair & style? Stunning!
Love the new sofa, it sings with your mcm cabinets. The tote looks amazing as is I love how it looks like it’s making fun of standard tote bags lol
You could add a couple of snaps on the straps so they can be folded and custom fitted
These are my favourite videos. So calming.
Im loving how your home is coming together. You have such a beautiful mind, Paige
The last tote you showed! I love! I want that tote and a book bag version for my husband lol
I like the new couch, the fabric is great! Maybe swap the couches so that the old one goes where the new one currently is? It's hard to say for sure without actually being in the space, but maybe it looks a little big right there? I'm thinking about walkways and just having some air around it.
I've never been the biggest fan of the bench/coffee table personally, can't put my finger on exactly why because I like the shape and concept of it! Maybe something like the Hay Kofi coffee table could look nice there?
you gave me some much needed laughs. omg, the walking by, the neighbor watching you film yourself cutting branches!!
Sofa is great! So happy it replaced the chairs that were backing to more chairs at the bar. Your place is looking so nice!
I love the fabric of the couch! Such a great choice! I also like the green curtain much better in the bathroom because it compliments the blue tile. The tote bags are beautiful as well!
The cabinet with the liquor…I would move it about 3” to the right. Love your channel
I really hope I can get my hands on the bag with the yellow straps I love it!
Would love more vlogs like from you! I loved your vlog you did working as a set decorator. It would be cool to see more day in the life vlogs or you working on set or even weekly vlogs! But I love your home updates videos there my favourite x
I can see one of those really low Mid Century slotted bench coffee tables with your new sofa.
I can really relate to the breakup / single life chats you gave us. Being happy single is great!
For the shower curtain, I would use sew-on snaps. You can get a bigger size than what you would use for clothes and I think they would make it easy to take the curtain on and off without using metal hoops. You could also use them to attach the plastic liner, that way you don't have to bother with buttons and making button holes. I think a lot of the charm of the original curtain was the pattern mixing between the straps and curtain so doing something similar but adding snaps would keep that look but make it easier to clean. Also, for the silky tote, I would use a stiffer fabric for the side panel so that the bottom is a little more durable and then add interfacing to the silk to give the whole thing more structure! You have a fantastic eye and I love watching your channel :) Also, the new couch is gorgeous.
Obsessed with the new couch!! But yeah I’m with the people.. coffee table fabric is no longer giving. I think the ottoman can still work, but just needs a new fabric.
Also, not essential, but the fabric on the bar stools is throwing me off a bit now, but could look better in person?
Also, also… LOVE the bags. I need the mini 🤩
I think the new sofa is awesome! Its the most beautiful thing in the room. you might change the Polster of the coffeetable (beige or green?) or change the carpet and put it in your bedroom?
This couch is the best thing you have ever done! It’s such good fabric!!
Hi! You have such good taste! The sofa fit in so well, but I agree with you, would find another table. The new showercurtain was much better. Also love the bags!
love your vids and style so much. kind of wish you’d done a moodboard for the bathroom, or a video about how to create a colour scheme for bathrooms/kitchens with coloured tiles you can’t change. the teal is such a statement for me and i’d have no idea what colours to pair with it tbh! i like the idea of red and teal but agree that the first shower curtain just wasn’t right. again, would love to see your process in how to marry colours together :^)
I like these types of vids paige! Feels like I'm just hanging with u in ur living room casually discussing interiors and life
Try swapping the location of the couches to check for balance? It feels like you have more breathing room closer to the door, which would better accommodate the new, more substantial sofa? On the shower curtain, it's only worth doing if you're improving on what's out there. Your choice of fabric can elevate the offering, but it's hard to improve on the essential ease of movement the steel ball hooks provide. If you could use those hooks but essentially hide them, THAT would be amazing. Make the curtain with a pinch pleat vibe, but add a hem tape with sewn-in gaps, low enough from the top edge to insert and completely hide the easy-glide hooks?
You should paint the wall trim to match the walls
That's a beautiful sofa fabric - love it. I agree something's got to change with the coffee table.
Love the vids where you give advice to subscribers homes. Those are the best.
I'm obsessed with the sofa and these are my favourite kind of videos of yours too!
Love the long straps and I would even continue them at the bottom of the bag. Can't wait for this one to come out! Love the couch, fits perfectly with the shelves.
I love the home updates! Also kinda love this branch tree segment lol, would be fun to see more branch styling tips !! Would be also fun a video of you showing us how to style a table for dinner parties (since holidays are coming)! Lastly your old videos are great and you should be so proud of them but I also believe that it could be weird for you, love the couch, yes to shorten the straps of the large tote and great shower curtains!!!!
I love the sofas, they warm your room , as the walls are painted & the colour is quite cool in colour, looks quality as well, love the zesty shower curtain colours. 🔥🤛🏻🇬🇧👏🏻👏🏻xxx
I will be eternally obsessed with your mid century wall unit. Also I love the couch!
i would love more vlogs, i love how chill your videos are and how cinematic they can be lol
Inflation and Recessions are part of the economic cycle, all you can do is make sure you're prepared and plan accordingly. I graduated into a recession (2009). My 1st job after college was aerial acrobat on cruise ships. Today I'm a VP at a global company, own 3 rental properties, invest in stocks and biz, built my own business, and have my net worth increase by $500k in the last 4 years.
You need a Financial Advisor my friend so you don't get ripped off in the market. They provide personalized advice to individuals based on their risk appetite, placing them among the best of the best. There are bad ones, but some with good track records can be very good.
I know I've wanted to start investing for a few months, but just haven't had the courage to start because the market has been down for most of this year. Please how can I reckon with such skills and what are his services like?
That’s awesome I had some stocks through my work & IRA accounts But I didn’t see any returns & after I left there I made the mistake of of not transferring it so I was paid out before I could-lately, I haven’t worked for a while for a company that I could invest in stocks with, so I don’t know where to start. It just seems so risky now.
I would like to see you do some home decor shopping and update home with it. I know these videos are being done a lot. But, I would like to see your take on doing it. Just had to say, I love that tote bag, the material is beautiful.
I love your new couch and I think it looks great in the space. So cozy.
I love the sofa! It looks really great with your shelves. I might try to find/make a pillow or pillows that brings in the color of your other couch or your rug. And yes to reupholstering your stools. You could find better fabric.
skip that. It looks fabulous in the montage.
What if you did clip curtain rings instead of traditional shower curtain rings
I love the new sofa! I agree with the others who have said to swap the placement of the two sofas, and to exchange the coffee table for something that isn't black and is less rectangular. Also I feel like the 3rd piece of your MCM wall unit that's on the other wall is sort of making the room too busy and crowded. I wonder if you could move that piece to your office (until you maybe one day have a living space where all three of the pieces of the wall unit can fit side by side).
I think it looks great! Just needs something as a pop of color like bright red or orange or maybe even a blue! Right now the tones of everything are similar so there’s nothing to move the eye around from spot to spot
I love the home updates! I’d love to see you talk more about how best address large collections with simple thoughtful sustainable design. Examples- plant collections, rare books, crystals/minerals, family photos, cute thrifted items like different colored vases.
I agree with the comments to swap the sofas, so the background for the new one is less busy. And I love the home update an check out this f**** home the most from all your videos so don’t worry :)
Also really loved your “day in the life as a prop stylist” video!
Do you have any advice for styling millennial gray walls and flooring? I have a new apartment and I’m struggling to brighten it up and add color. I unfortunately can’t paint.
She JUST did a video on this maybe a month or two ago. ❤
@@lightworks3172thank you!!
The new sofa is great! You do, however, have a lot of upholstery going on and wood, wood, and more wood. I would add some metal accents in some capacity, possibly change out the barstools for metal ones with comfortable seat cushions only instead of entire upholstered chair tops. Make the coffee table oval, you've got a lot of linear elements. Definitely change out the fireplace art for something else. Maybe switch out some of the mantel decor to add in some small hand forged/rustic metal pieces there as well. Mix it up!
Brilliant fabric selection for your new sofa🤩
Have you tried switching the location of the 2 sofas?
Also, some patterned cushions on the solid sofa, will help the 2 mesh more.
A brown men’s suiting fabric will be lovely on your bench/ottoman.
Thank you for sharing your adventures🌞
Wishing you light and love precious soul🕊️
❤ golly that couch looks like the most comfortable thing ever. The first couch looks much better now, too. I was still not sold on that first couch but the second may have brought me on board. Because my opinion on that matter matters at all hahah. New curtain does look better, too. I liked the first one but you’re right, it was too heavy. This was so chaotic and I loved it. I’m so glad you’re on RUclips, Paige.
The couch is great!!!
And the branch-cutting antics and figuring out that it didn't look good made me laugh! The second one did look good!
I love both your sofas!!
loving the bags! but not loving so much the green curtain shower combine with the green tile in the bathroom :/
For the curtain loops I would sew one end of the loop piece to the top and then cut a button hole on the other end of the loop piece. Then sew large buttons on the interior side where you can then hang the shower liner from (they usually have pre cut holes that could could slip over each button) and then secure with the loop over it ( loop basically sandwiches the liner)
The new shower curtain is a hit, a massive improvement on the previous one. The new sofa is also a hit, and the only thing throwing the living room area off now is the ottoman.
If you want to keep it, I would suggest reupholstering it in a green fabric and swapping out its legs for metal ones. And also add some green cushions on either of the sofas. If you are not adamant on keeping it, get a round glass, or metal, (preferably chrome), or stone table. It would create a beautiful tension with all the other warm materials in the space. Loved the episode! 👍
I love the sofa it looks very good in your room. Also the showercurtain is much better...and yes, more home updates and tours❤
