Do you think I should incorporate elements of beef and tobacco in my room , I'm going for a smokey adult kind of vibe but very luxurious

Another great video ! Would you please make one on mixing different wood colors throughout the house? Thank you Kristen 😊

Yes! I really struggle with this!

@TRoxanne55 День назад

Yes! I’m curious about this too since I have sone different tones going.

@maranatha4133 День назад

Yes please, it's a struggle to decide, "should wood dressers and consoles, coffee tables, etc. be the same tones in a room?". "When to mix wood tones in a room?". It's hard to pick wood tones for furniture because trends change so quickly. I actually like mixed furniture tones. But the hardest part is picking what pieces should be what tone....the struggle is real lol

@LHarrolle День назад

Great suggestion. I struggle with mixing wood tones too.

@milaniaa.932 2 дня назад

You are simply the best!

@Sunshine-fy4fz 2 дня назад

I so agree with you on getting the height of certain elements correct, or it sets off the whole design of a room. For instance, drapes that don't touch the floors is like wearing a pair of jeans/pants that are awkwardly too short. And having a chandelier or hanging lights too close to the ceiling rather than lowered over the dining table or kitchen island (so it casts light on the items on the counter or table, which is why you have a light fixture there in the first place) makes it look like you installed it incorrectly (you didn't leave enough wire to hang it low enough). A good rule of thumb is that the bottom of the light fixture should be about 10" higher than the top of the head of a person seated at the table/counter. It's low enough to cast light on what's below without interfering with seeing the person seated across from you. Thanks for all your tips!

@prayonkreutz2398 2 дня назад

I put 5000k cool bulbs in my ceiling recessed lights & 2500k warm bulbs in my lamps. That way when I need it bright to clean or paint, i have the best of both worlds.

@lori900 2 дня назад

Thank you so so much. I have come to a standstill decorating because it is not "perfect". It doesn't HAVE to be. I just needed to hear how to make it LOOK perfect. I can't wait to tackle these projects with the items I already have that exist and I haven't used them yet. 💚

@juliakayduerler День назад

Yes! 1000% about lighting! Warm light bulbs are the only kind I buy and I wish there were no other options! I cringe when I go into an environment where the light is stark and cold feeling.

@Milorios0321 День назад

Thank you so much for educating me about lighting , I’m always grateful when people like you share Is difficult for me to found nice light for my home please share if the 2700 light bulbs you use are soft or just white warm??

Such a useful video Kristen! Does the same rule apply for pendant lights over a kitchen island bench? Many thanks, Tiina

@andrescastillo07 2 дня назад

Amazing tips as always! I hope you can make a video like this for a bathroom! I'm going to renovate mine maybe this year and I'd appreciate tips like these, especially for lighting! :D Is it okay to have warm lighting in the kitchen? My kitchen and living room are connected in an open floor plan, and the kitchen lighting is 6500K while the living room is 3000K. The color temperatures seem to clash!

Hi Kristen me name is Hibba I love watching your videos the really inspire me. I just want to tell you that I cam to Smokey mountains Tennessee and I just remembered you lived in Tennessee. And I think Mabey I could ring you. Bye

@debrahayes3778 День назад

Drapes that brush the floor or pool at the bottom can become dust traps if you don't have someone constantly taking care of it even if you don't have pets. Also drapes that go to the floor in small rooms can look overdone, in my opinion, depending on the function of the room.

@SHWF-411 День назад

I agree. I have a very small bedroom with large windows. Following the conventional advice for floor to ceiling drapes would be overwhelming.

@kerryclare3456 2 дня назад

If you have cats, it helps to have a space between the bottom of the drapes, and the floor. Otherwise, it might become a cathair fringe drape, as they like to lay there. Just saying, there are adjustments for lifestyles.

Also a vacuum cleaning robot likes to "chew" on the longer fancy part of the curtain 😂

@Sooz1234 День назад

Having too much "stuff" is a big obstacle to a decent-looking interior. "Stuff" makes it hard to store things away, to keep everything clean, to update interiors, or to "curate" display items, especially as one gets a bit older and can more easily look past it all. Ask me how I know... Great tips as always!

Was thinking in putting a light track over the kitchen island, spotting the lights towards the dark kitchen cabinets what are your thoughts on it? Thanks

@tashagervais8733 16 часов назад

I disagree about any light over 3000k not being welcoming and looking blue. 3500 light doesn't look blue, it's very neutral white and IMO it's the perfect clean light with no undertones and not so yellow it makes you sleepy👌🏼4000k+, yes, then you're into daylight territory which isn't great.

@ahnaf_ameer_ashraf День назад

@katherinefisher509 2 дня назад

Do you have a link for curtain rods and curtains you recommend? I have a couch next to a window so not sure how to go about that.

Wish we had walmart in Australia. Or that they shipped overseas.

@Milorios0321 День назад

Do you buy your light bulbs in Amazon ?

@monmur7952 2 дня назад

good tips, but every example is still..beige, greige or gray. Where is the actual color? Why is beige-topia a thing? It's so bland.

@Carmelitajalifestyle 21 час назад

If you are tired of just seeing beige check out my space 😂 lots of color😊

@shannonevans6344 2 дня назад

I’ve recently had a hard time finding the 2700 k light bulbs. It seems like they have been replaced by 2850 k bulbs!!

@situzen185 2 дня назад

Your video was enjoyable and informative. I have a couple of questions concerning things that just do not work for us. One: We do not like an abundance of pillows on beds, chairs, couches...which may look good but end up being clutter in our small home. Two: Neither of us likes curtains that touch/drag the floor...it seems dirty and is more difficult when cleaning floors. Maybe we're just more into convenience than style. With that in mind, do you have any solutions to our preferences. Thanks!
