One common mistake in RUclips videos. Never ending background music that make it so much more difficult to hear and focus on what you are saying. Please, please, please use music and sound effects for emphasis, but turn off the non-stop background music. It can be an accessibility issue. Thanks for considering this! I really enjoyed the video. 😊
No background music!
Totally agree, get rid music
Yes!!
Yeah refer to the topic… this video will be better without bg music throughout. Intro music is fine and ending..
Love the cheerful background music!
I was laughing hysterically with the Live Laugh Love sign, then I got a hit with the 3-piece bathroom shaggy rugs, now I’m not laughing anymore 😔
And she didn't give an alternative did she?
@@cheryladams7288 lol, it doesn’t need much explanation, really. All you need is a mat. I always thought the rug on the toilet corner was a bit unhygienic. 🙈
😂🤣
Those rugs are vile.
@@Renee-rw7un the fluffiness under your feet while you’re in the toilet is worth it 😌
I have daylight bulbs throughout my house. My Interior Designer friend did not approve. I told him, “I’m effin old & can’t see!” I like lights that allow me to see.
Lol
Hilarious 😂
I've watched a few of these types of videos now and they all mention bulbs, but I love my daylight bulbs and will continue to use them
I get those smart bulbs because the daylight ones are GREAT in winter. Variety of lighting has been the best interior design solution I have ever implemented.
Hahaha love it!
I’ve learned over the years this quote to be quite true, “Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful.”
I tend to agree. However the beautiful part its mmm..... a double edged sword. I seen some ugly ass de decorations that ruin a beautiful home.
@@NuclearAbyss // and I'll admit I made some bad purchases and wasted lots of money by just being in that moment.
Good quote! (About usefulness and beauty).
Now print it on a canvas and send to Posh Pennies. :P
Music is distracting not in a good way. I would prefer to see your wonderful self
Educate us. Thank you beautiful lady!
yes, this! the music!
I'm getting a big farmhouse sign for my bathroom that says POOP. Just kidding. "Live, laugh, poop?"
HAHAHA 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 thanks this made me lol
Literally laughing out loud (but not pooping, I promise)
🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
I had "get naked" in my bathroom 😅 everyone laughed when they entered. I was thinking of "shit happens" over the toilet 😁
I have a “Nice Butt” sign on my toilet 🤷🏼♀️ what can I say, I have a sense of humor.
Well, some of us like the shabby chic, the farmhouse look and cottage.
I am in my 60’s and I have always had the farmhouse, French country, cottage look going on in my home. BTW mostly decorated with thrift store or diy items.
"I think it looks cheap, but if you're ok with that, then go for it!" 😂
I think the music is very cheap and annoying, but if you're ok with it, then go for it! I can always turn the sound off.
Agree 100% ! 😊👍 This all makes so much sense.
Just one thing: The background music ist really distracting. For a high sensitive person it's really hard to concentrate on your voice.
Becci Blue So is the choppy editing.
Hahaha 😁
Really? So anal
Viv I love you, but “1 common thing that makes your video look cheap”: crazy wild reflections dancing around in your glasses 🙈 They’re so insane in this video I feel like they have their own eccentric personality! I wear glasses myself so I know how difficult that is, but maybe try to position the lights in such a way that they won’t be reflected into the camera, or use softboxes or diffusers. I think a polarization filter in front of your lens should also help to a degree and is a cheap and easy solution 🙌
I like them instead '\/( )\/`
Agree on most of this except kitchenware (kinda). I haaaaaaate plain identikit Ikea (etc) sets. I love handpainted plates, or things with a history. When I go on holiday somewhere with good local crafts, I bring back a plate or a bowl. I have plates gifted to me by friends/family. (The caveat is they know my taste so I don’t have anything I use reluctantly). I have a stack of gorgeous, individual plates and every time I choose one, I’m reminded of the place it came from.
Mismatched cutlery is awful though. I bought a beautiful set when I got the keys to my home, and never looked back. I have a few odd plain steel forks & knives and just use these when I’m cooking, not for serving/eating.
I think it may make a difference whether its crafted or mass produced when it comes to mismatched kitchenware. I imagine if most is crafted it may look pretty good and intentional
Matching tableware is great for hosting formal gatherings, but it should be higher quality then. Otherwise I'd much rather have nice mismatched plates than cheap matchy ones!
Onboard with most of what you say but I don't mind canvas-wrapped fine art photo prints. I guess it depends on the image, size and where you hang it. Also, unmatched tableware with unique original pieces makes eating and drinking more fun. I have antique ceramic plates and they don't match. My visitors love learning about each piece. Genric matching kitchenware can be quite boring. Very conservative North American of you.
Everyone is different with different tastes. I have no prints hanging in my home period.
I'm so with you on the plates. I *love* browsing antique stores for their stacks of 1€ plates and collecting a wonderful mish-mash of amazing pieces. Every meal different. Every snack with its own character. Those boring sets from Ikea would make my brain and my taste buds switch off. Give me something that has been designed with love, treasured for decades, and finally passed to a vintage trader or charity shop to find a new life to bring happiness to.
@@estherallerton1567 Having sold antiques for decades I'm with you. I use antique kitchenware daily that I put in the dishwasher regularly. Still in good working condition after 100 years. The new stuff I've bought gets knife marks, breaks etc after 5 years or so. I'll continue to not go with the planned obsolescence that the powers that be promote.
Unmatched tableware can look really cool!
Having matching dishes is like having matching furniture sets. Looks like a retail showroom.
Love these apart from miss matched plates. That CAN be a good look, not always. Like miss matched chairs round a table, can, not always, look good. Has to be done right.
I feel the same way and I have different plates for different moods.
Also agree, I have mismatched blue and white china and it looks v. chic, esp when it's used during holidays and get togethers.
If they are well crafted pieces it looks ok, just the mass produced crap looks bad.
I love my white sheer thin curtains. It's perfect for my indoor plants and my sliding doors leading to my garden. It makes my living room look larger.
Yes refers to bulk as in adding more panels for fullness, and not about the density of fabric
I never floss my hair unless there’s a sign telling me to do so!
That was funny.. 😂
😂
Sorry not getting rid of my mona lisa paint by numbers
@@kathybishop6623 😂
I just binged on your shows this weekend. Love them! Please note I would want more then 2 minutes of content on your channel. Don't ever change.
omg i laughed so hard when u said "a piece of toilet paper on the side of you windows." I need to change this in my home...thanks
I loved the oddly specific "a sketchy car rental office in Baltimore"...LOLOLOLOL
I've never ever permitted 'signage' in my home. It's an outrageously hideous trend that needs to disappear down a drain along with each and every 'keep calm and carry on' product ever produced. Love this video!
Except for the original WWII poster
Absolutely. Signage mounted upon the ‘Accent wall’. (The usual black and silver/gold Filigree printed geometric wallpaper).
Eek!
Jeepers.
If it’s in someone else’s home what’s it to you? And who the hell cares what this snob thinks makes your house look cheap. If she’s that caught up in material things & let’s someone else’s decorating style bother her, she needs therapy! I watch a lot of home interior shows and design shows. None have been as insulting as this very young girl. If people didn’t think the signs were nice and looked good in the home they wouldn’t make them or buy them. But since they can’t keep them on the self and they’re in everyone’s house I’d say YOU ARE THE STUCK UP ONE THAT NEEDS THROWN OUT!
Do we really need videos to confirm what people know?
Haha, I never permitted signage on my children, either!
yes!!! I knew it, I'm not crazy. Those Farmhouse signs looks horrible... and dumb
LOL - I love my crap - but only because I've made most of it - which probably makes it worse!! But, I agree - it's getting so overused!
@@CLMaxey67 I think if it’s meaningful to someone, then it’s fine. I don’t know. I don’t like this judgey shit. I don’t have writing, but I’ve never had a moment in my life to be so celebratory. Now I do. I get why someone would have positive words all around. It feels good to have loving family around.
Right, but fo people really need a script written sign that says *_"Family"_* just because they value their family...? 🤔😆
My cousin would have every single Van Gogh print if he could beacuse he genuinely loves the guy's art and I find it amazing on his bedroom. I think the print thing depends on how passionate the person is about that it.
Yea I think it's fine if you REALLY love the painting and you obviously can't have the original.
Yes! Passion really influences how you display it, style it, honor it in your home. I feel the same way about the “words” throughout my home. I do graphic design. I love honoring the field of graphic design, so yeah, I ignore that piece of advice.
@@thisuniquechica I love graphic design also & love the different styles of WORDS they come up with. I especially like LIVE LAUGH LOVE INSTEAD JUDGE MOCK HATE.
@@thisuniquechica Typographical design can be absolutely beautiful. I am a linguist and I love words - and I design my own typographical posters.
Yikes
I've always HATED those multi canvas things lol A great cheap tip for large artwork, Get a canvas drop cloth,stretch on some 2x4s , prime it, give it a light sanding, paint in a neutral house paint that matches your decor and put coordinating colors in some cups and let your kids paint on it. #2 support local artists. Look for art students locally.
Awesome idea. I love going to the art walk every second Thursday. I am queen of thrifty and seeing things out of the corner of my eye people have thrown out and some of the hardest things for me to get rid of our things I’ve found or gotten for free.
I'm renting. I agree that contact paper on the countertop is a big no-no. BUT! Contact paper on cabinet doors is amazing. Blow-dry the edges to smooth it out. Don't buy the marble effect ones. I bought natural white with a wooden effect on it. I also changed the handles. People have no idea that is fake. They always compliment it. I had it for 3 years now and they still look the same.
Yes, some of the new products are high quality now.
Ive not seen this kind of contact paper you are talking about. Can you tell me where you got it?
@@kathleenwalton3311 The one I bought is called "D-C-Fix Whitewood Matt Self Adhesive Film 67.5cm x 15m"
@@kathleenwalton3311 in every store! Walmart target Amazon Home Depot Lowe’s you name it. Lots of ways to fix up a rental and not damage anything for when you move out. I’ve seen women make some amazing things. And who the heck would put contact paper on their counter? You mean don’t put contact paper in your cub boards and drawers bc it gets greasy & rips the wood from the drawer? I just redid my kitchen. I painted it white and stained my wood drawers black. Took the gross contact paper out.
@@Leokat334 i was forced by an aunt to do this when i moved into my apt! It's been a while and I'm so scared it going to damage the cupboards. If anyone has tips, I'd appreciate it
So agree with the writing decor things.
Live laugh love
I fully agree on that. "Family" "Love"... just like a woman getting a gold necklace with her name on it.
Gather is the worst
Lol
@@srkh8966 I still think "suck balls" is the worst
I actually have a Starry, Starry Night canvas wrapped print in my living room! Ha, maybe if I was selling my house and was trying to stage it to sell, I would replace it. But until then....on my wall it will stay because I love it!
THAT'S MY FAVORITE TOO!! I HAVE IT IN ONE OF MY BEDROOMS AND HAVE USED TURQUOISE AND LILAC TO DECORATE!! I LOVE THE WORD ART TOO!! LOL 😂
Growing up in the 70s and 80s my family had red shag carpeting in the family room. Wood paneling on the walls. The appliances were harvest yellow.
My home is my safe haven. I have what I like, and like what I have. I prefer the lived-in design.
My cabinets are that '80's style. Quaker Made, very well constructed and very expensive. They were here when I bought the place 25 years ago. I was anxious to replace them but have learned to love them and so glad I didn't rip them out. The house is an 1980 build, designed and built by a contemporary architect for his own family. He knows better than I, so his design can stay.
I understand what you are saying---but these are ONLY applicable in a vacuum. For instance your mismatched kitchen ware closet----Just needs organizing. I'd rather have vintage one of a kind pieces than all matchy matchy melamine from Ikea. Artwork-----again-----context matters. I have a Guernica print that I brought over from Paris----its enormous and fits my cubist living room. This was from the 90s, I have changed it. But not ashamed to go back to it some day.
I intentionally bought mismatched kitchenware that looks unique and interesting.
@@deRose03 well not everyone likes it, it make your house look cheap and you unorganized. Better throw that stuff out before someone sees it. I’d never have mismatched anything in my kitchen. I buy and decorate what I LIKE not what others like. And I like those little signs they’re cute snob. Far better interior designers disagree with you and they don’t put people down. If people didn’t like bathroom mats as a set they wouldn’t sell them and be bought. Get over yourself. 🤬🤮🤮🤑🤑
@@Leokat334 I don't agree with you, do as you please at your own home and follow your own taste, just don't impose it on others. My kitchenware is pretty and each piece differs from everything else which is how I prefer. I am sure that lots of people could find your physical appearance disagreeable in many ways while others will like it. To each their own.
@@Leokat334 "interior designer" is a fancy synonym to "aesthetically blind people trying to fool someone else".
Why matchy-matchy uninteresting each to their own no offense
There are so many places online that represent artists, where you can buy originals or prints - that it's a shame to be selecting art based on the color of your sofa, or a cheap mass produced print from a department store.
I make my own stuff. I love crafting, painting,floral design and painting furniture.this is really just nonsense and more cancel culture bs. Pretty subtle but that’s what she’s doing. Maybe what she likes has been canceled. 🤷🏻♀️
Well... I guess I'm going to cheap looking home 🤷♀️. We just bought our first home and already made several offenders. But oh well, they make me happy.
That’s all that matters! Truly:)💕
Same here. But she haven't offended me lol
@@holyravenification I'm not offended either, I just think it's funny
@@holyravenification lol, no problem. Tone can easily go either way
Everyone has different taste. You decorate However your happy. And just dont invite this girl over 🤣
Ok, my favorite is the bathroom rug sets. Just that look with no words. Lol
The cheap black pole floor lamp from Ikea behind her is the ultimate cheap decor item
🙈🤭😂🤣
I think that is a different lamp in the back.
Funny!
Aww. I like those uplughts
The shade! 😆
Painted countertops. My friend did this on ugly tile. By the time she was through it was fabulous. It looked like stone. Take your time to prep. Don't rush and the final result is great!
I personally love some of the farmhouse and cottage looks when it's done in a flattering way. But leaving out the signs and adding more warmth instead of the cold gray look.
Just today I received an Amazon package that contained a forest green, 3 piece shag rug set for my master bathroom 🥺🤣. I LOVE it so much 🤷🏽♀️😂
If you love it, that's what's important! Congrats. :- )
You go girl! Rug lovers unite 💖
That color sounds nice. I've seen those sets in some really unattractive colors.
Beth Wade , yessss. It’s a beautiful color and it gives my little bathroom a vintage feel.
I like how these seat covers dampen the sound of the toilet seat slamming down.
another one I would add similar to mismatched kitchenware, is mismatched clothe hangers!
Even if your guests won't really see them, matching hangers makes a difference!
Yes, girl. On the artwork thing...if the piece of art is played out, look for another piece that artist did. If someone likes their work so much, I bet there is another piece they'll love. And you can flex on finding something not the whole world has on their wall. LOVE Monet but......he did more than water lilies.
My problem with prints of famous works is they scream college dorm room.
I am a little guilty of this.
I think if you really appreciate art the setting doesn’t really matter but for all intents and purposes a beautiful book on the masters on a console table would look much better.
LOL
I just hang out originals from talented local artists, but I've got a framed poster from the Van Gogh's "Café Terrace at Night" which I bought at the MET, and I just love it. It makes me happy; those blues and yellows, all the sufferings of both Van Gogh brothers, the struggles, the poverty, and yet such an inspiring work of art. I look at it and I think I'll go to that place once this pandemic is all over.... Maybe, if a piece tells a story and speaks about your artistic preferences, it can have a chance -you may remove it momentarily when in-laws are visiting. But you are right about the Mona Lisa. My rule is: if it makes you happy, you can frame your son's school art and proudly show it to anyone who wants to look at it.
@@SuperWoolfolk I loved that piece but now my fave to The Church at Auvers. I've been to Arles where the cafe is ( early in the month of January when it was closed) and to Les Alycamps that he painted. The good thing about being there in January is no crowds. Because it's south/southwest France, I'm sure it's very popular at other times. You definitely need to go. It was kind of a spiritual experience for me where I just connected with the place. In (at?) Les Alycamps, there is a deconsecrated chapel that is hexagonal in shape. Make sure you go that far down and go inside if it's open.
If you shop at thrift stores, you can find original paintings, some of them are really well done and old. They can look really amazing in the right frame or even a frame that has been repainted or gilded for very little money.
So agree about words on walls. Yuck. I've always hated clothing with words, brands or pictures also.
Love this video! I couldn't agree with you more about decor with words. Not just the signs, but the Minted Xmas post cards with a family photo and the word "Blessed" in script. 🤮 Then there's the Rae Dunn OBSESSION to get every mug and cookie jar for every holiday. 😂
Watching this as my counter contact paper is out for delivery from Amazon. But it's okay. You may have a problem with it but I know black contact paper will look a lot better than 20 year old laminate countertops that were used as cutting boards in the apartment I'm renting where I obviously can't paint on them. 🙄😒
well I think to each their own.............we all have different tastes and styles, so rather than try to look "updated"...........if it pleases you, and makes you feel good...........decorate as you please and don't think about what other people might think or say........hey, it's you who lives there, not them!
I just started the video but I actually love those old white apartment cabinets lol. I think if they're well maintained they're kinda 90s retro and cute
Personally I think they look worse painted, in a "lipstick on a pig" kind of way.
The only personality they have is the wooden grooves and handleless look so I'd rather embrace it than obliterate it.
@@ChiaraFrancioli yeah i can see that. I'd rather embrace them too but maybe colorblocking the top & bottom cabinets in color could be cool. Without handles still ofc! Lol
@@oatmealhoney7446 agreed about the colorblocking! I did it when I was a young student renting and loved every day of it!
Yes, clean them up really good with the degrees here and change the cabinet handles if you can and Collett a day. I think people have too much time on their hands sometimes lol. Be thankful you have a kitchen lol
@@aishaoduntan4152 And a complimentary color on the walls can make them look even better.
please tell me this was intentional: 6:19 and you're telling us to avoid purchasing famous artwork such as Van Gogh's Starry Night. AND HERE WE ARE AT 12:29 WITH VAN GOGH'S STARRY NIGHT HANGIN OUT ON THAT WALL
I will never get rid of my black velvet painting with the lights.
Elvis? Anyone?
There's a pot with grass in it and a freestanding torch lamp in the background so interior decorating isn't her thing for real 👩🔧🇺🇲🇷🇺
@@craftpaint1644 Beware there are many pseudo decorators that call themselves interior designers on YT. Just saying.
I agree with all of these! Thank you for spreading your knowledge and good sense of style.
I love canvas prints because they’re so matte and look very “deep” and rich, even compared to photo prints without glass! The only other option I also like are acrylic prints which have a high contrast and great popping colors but aren’t as deep due to their reflections. Normal photo prints behind glass are perfectly okay but fall pretty flat for me overall. BUT I don’t think there’s a format that works well for every photo! I’d choose canvas for black & white photos and photos with lots of dark areas, acrylic for photos with bright colors, and photo prints for “normal” photos.
You could add a wood frame around the canvas to elevate the look of it. Kelsey from 'the sorry girls' here on RUclips made one recently at the end of her last home-reno episode. It's fairly easy and looks just soooooo much better all you need is a miter box, hand saw, wood glue and some small nails
@@Kath-Erina yes, some prints benefit from a frame! But some also don’t, it always depends on the individual artwork.
@@Halbmond you are absolutely correct, but I though more about family Fotos and such, those look so much better with a frame when on canvas
@@Kath-Erina totally agree with you! I thought about artworks and other subjects. For example, I have a gallery wall of concert photography, and those work much better without frames imo. But family photos and portrait photography in general tend to look better framed. I think it’s because the focus is on a person, so the frame acts as a visual border that keeps the eyes locked in on what’s important. On the other hand, if it’s something like an open landscape, not having a frame allows the viewer to imagine the scene going beyond the canvas.
Harsh truths. But, like a stranger telling you you’ve got a booger, you’d rather know than not.
Or rather know than snot...amiright?? *highfive*
😂😂
Re famous paintings: I fell in love with a John Singer Sargent painting, “Lady Agnew of Lochnaw”. I bought a print (18x24”), brought it to a local independent framing shop, chose a frame and matting that compliments the style and colors of the painting, and, instead of glass, had the shop apply a finish to make the print look like canvas. It definitely does not look like a print now.
And it’s one of the best portraits of all time. Well done!
What an awsome idea
@@terrapinalive6192 thank you.
I just looked it up, that is a lovely painting, and I like the sound of what you had done with the print. Tempted to buy a copy myself. Well done 😊
@@owenwilson6737 thank you. I’m tempted to take my other framed prints (Tiffany’s “Magnolia and Iris”; Klimt’s “The Kiss”) and having the same treatment done.
LOVE your plain and simple honestly. Bold n Beautiful advice! Saying what needs to be said. Wonderful.
Thank you for saying it!! All of the things I have been thinking. You hit every single topic and item on my list that I have been sick and tired of seeing and hearing from others.
This is the first video I’ve seen of yours and I absolutely loved it!! Honest but not bitchy, loads of great advice, well edited. Subscribed and looking forward to more content 🥰
IT NEEDED TO BE SAID 👏👏You got yourself a suscriber with the "no sings or decor with words on it" policy.
Another cabinet option is to just get new cabinet doors, if you want to go for a mid-priced upgrade. You can even install them yourself with a little help from a family member or friend.
We have done this and it is an attractive, effective and more affordable option!
My friend got new cabinet doors on facebook marketplace. They look great!
Great idea! Mine are cheap, very old white(ish) laminate over pressboard, and chipped around the edges...no way will the LL replace them, but has offered to remove the doors so I will have open shelving...sorta 🙄 (even THAT would be an improvement)
My father refuses to get rid of that lighting. The first time he put them in, I told him the house seemed like a hospital. But, he changed all the soft lighting in the entire house to the stupid office lighting; his reason, "these bulbs last 10 years." 🙄
Also, impressionism is my favorite art style, I paint and have those in the house instead of buying mass produced art.
How many years has it been? Are you doing a count-down? 😂
Does he know you can buy soft white LEDs that last that long?
Making your own art is so Alpha, everyone should at least try it. Anything you want, any colours you want, any size you want, and it's not mass-produced 👩🔧🇺🇲🇷🇺
Boomer dads are the worst when it comes to home decor usually. My dad got cool lights for the Christmas tree a while ago. Imagine a Christmas tree with cold almost blueish lightning, wtf! And my boyfriend's dad got that generic Amazon type multiple piece 'artwork' showcased in this video for a focal point in the family living room.
Awww That is such a dad thing I love it.
Your three piece bathroom interior mistake is hilarious, and your look and music supporting this statement! haha, lol.
I agree with every advice you gave. Especially the marble paper
Thank you so much for your interior design videos! Your tips, knowledge and clearly straight forward explanations are brilliant. You do a wonderful job on keeping information precise, non judgemental and timeless. I look forward to implementing your recommendations in my home and look forward to your upcoming videos.
Nonjudgmental?
Subscribed because I thoroughly enjoyed your sass in this video!! And also you made very helpful points, thank you so much!
LOVE your sense of humor, and amazing pacing. Thanks for being so generous with your expertise.
People do what makes you happy we’re only here for one run 🏃 in life
Agree with nearly everything except the light temperature comment. Personally I prefer daylight temperature lightbulbs in areas I spend most of my time during the day. It keeps me happy and my Seasonal Affective Disorder at bay. Yellow/"warm" lighting bums me out and I deliberately switch out the bulbs in new fixtures for sunlight bulbs.
Excellent video. Thank you I’m really enjoying your teaching s and I’m sharing it with my friends 🙋♀️
I do not know why RUclips recommended me this video but it was really fun and instructive.
So I had those cupboards you showed, and I used the doors and rebuilt them into a shaker style. It took quite a while to finish the whole kitchen, but was a fraction of the cost of any professional solution, and looks so much better.
I love that you have a Schiele in your room! I have two in my bedroom, with other pieces mostly from unknown artists, but aside from a very few number of people, nobody knew who he was. He deserves to be known by a larger number of people, but I don't think it would make sense to see a Schiele in every home.
Yes! I was in the comment section to say the same thing!
I love Schiele but I have to disagree, I think he is very well known
I don't know his art but in the 90's we used to listen to The Rachel's Music for Egon Schiele. I just looked him up and was surprised to find out he passed away in 2018.
@@L.Spencer oh I think something's got mixed up, actually He died in 1918 :)
So glad you said this! I have felt this way for years on all of these options!
This is the most accurate, humorous, and informative interior design video I’ve ever seen. The people thank you. 😂
I really had to burst out laughing at the toilet rugs and when you wrote "no, thanks" to the photo canvas frame options :D
I think that everyone should just what makes them happy. Everyone’s style is different, so do what makes you happy, do what makes you feel good in your home. And if anyone doesn’t like it, fuck em.
Hello! I so love your style, not only in design but also the way you put things across. AND I totally agree with you! I've just subscribed after watching 4 of your videos. Thanks 😊
You’re spot on on everything!
My best tip...do what makes you happy...experts are a dime a dozen, and no one will know who they are in 5 years.
Exactly! I don’t even know who this person is
Yep I agree
It sounds like her opinions on what's tacky are her own pet peeves, Who does she think she is telling people what's tacky and what's not, I must say The way she wears her make up is tacky Should he blending that face gunck all the way down her neck Blend ...blend .
And in my opinion... pick a hair color!
Well we aren't watching your video.
@@Renee-rw7un anyone with a phone can make a video...duhhh. Btw great handle for a leftist nut, lol
I always wondered why I couldn’t tolerate cursive writing signage(s) in the home. It doesn’t feel original.
I love your channel.
Wow. Thank you for this!!! Insightful!
Beautiful tips! Thank you!!! ♥♥♥
I agree on mass-produced canvas prints and even canvas print portraits. But we have canvas prints of nature photography we've taken on various hikes and trips to historical locations. I love them because we have one for every place we've lived, and each one takes me to a special place/memory. And since they're landscapes, they wouldn't work as regular photo prints. If they look tacky, oh well, I'd rather be tacky and be reminded of those places every day. We have more traditional art too, of course.
This tip contradicts her other video where she told me to get a $20 Walmart print for my mental health tho.
Lol my parents vacation home had the 80s cabinets! They painted them and added modern hardware, the difference was night and day! Really no need to fully replace cabinets, upcyling is the green route! Plus it saves time money and headaches
you're expressions are so adorable. all the info is so appreciated and educational. thank you
Always enjoy your content and appreciated the sassy entertainment.
home depots daylight bulbs are beautiful. my plants even like them.
Yesss love I love your realness you just gained a new subscriber 😁
First time here and I’ve subbed. Agree with everything you’ve said and your delivery was perfect.
Amazing tipps! Thank you so much!
Omg, I agree with all of this. Especially the art!! I only hang original, no print! You're right, too many talented artists in this world. I bought a beautiful 32×20 gorgeous original from Russia on an Etsy type app. 😍
Totally right on everything.
New sub, so excited to get through all your videos. Love your humour and non fluff approach 😊
This is my first video and I loved it! The curtains. Genius! Thank you for all your tips. I need all the help I can get! ❤️
I’ll take my mountain stream scene by Roth Woods over that scary ‘art’ you have behind you any day.
I agree with the cursive writing on things, lol... By the way I immediately saw your print was Egon Shiele's... And what about those influencer gallery walls with just a bunch of the same kind of Desenio prints???
ITS CALLED SCRIPT and many people love it SNOB!
Love Egon Schiele - have 2 in my den. Thank you for mentioning the tackiness of the Live, Love, Laugh artwork.
New subscriber here... thanks for the tips. The music and the talk....incredibly match, love it!
😂 Spot on commentary. Thank you for highlighting “bad wall art” mistakes. I still can’t believe when doing an on-site visit, how many multi-million $ homes have Home Sense wrapped canvas art prints. Talk about instant luxury-home vibe kill. 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
Brutal but honest. DIY may fake the look, but never the quality. And it’s the lack or absence of quality that makes a space look cheap. I’ve committed one of the listed sins and thank you for bringing it to my attention.
My home is comfortable, all my own and I love it. I don't care if it "looks' cheap!
Hi,
Yes yes yes!!! I agree with you now. Maybe 15 yrs ago I wouldn’t have totally. My taste has changed by reading and learning fashion and style. I learn from U tubers like you so good info. I’m a new subscriber. , I think you’re, to the point, good voice pitch, not whiney or a fast talker or slow talker, just right. Good sense of humor!! So glad I stumbled across you!! Thanks!!!
I’ve got a Tom Loepp painting in my apartment and it makes the whole space so elegant.
Now, I want a sign that says, "Floss your hair" 😂😂😂
Thank God you jotted down all the points and had the guts to make this brutul yet honest videos 👍🙏
