Julie, My heart breaks for you losing your dog. Just a few years ago, we lost both of our girls with two weeks from cancer. I was completely heartbreaking because they really become your children.

@JulieKhuu Год назад

She was my last rescue before having kids, I know she’s in a better place 🖤

@youbetcha108 Год назад

Hi Julie I am sorry you lost your pet doggie. I know what that is like. 😞🐈Glad you guys are all over Covid. Lots of it going around! The grey look is not as popular but still a practical color. I could see that grey couch going against a reddish brick wall with black accents modern lighting and plants! What a great store to have near you! Some nice finds! ❤️🥰👏🏻

@JulieKhuu Год назад

I do love gray as a solution, not as an all-encompassing neutral 🖤 thank you Margaret 🙏

@lizhoward9754 Год назад

Thank you so much 🙏💗

@grumpyschnauzer Год назад

Gray couches are still in! And not just because I still have one. In the video you showed a blonde colored weaved tray/bowl after showing the gray couch… Pairing warm woods or blonde warm accents soften gray couches and give it an organic feel. (Think stone with straw)

@JulieKhuu Год назад

Gray definitely needs some natural tones to warm it up! But set against another set of gray accent chairs? That little vignette needed a bit more life 👍

@grumpyschnauzer Год назад

@@JulieKhuuAgree! Gray couch and chairs are too boring. But gray couch with rattan chairs FAB!

@jeanne-marie8196 Год назад

Yay! I aced the “real or faux” stone test. I think it’s the finish on them that registers for me. Unfortunately, I’m the same way with jewelry. Show me a comparison, and I will pick out the most expensive one! I’m so sorry for your emotional week. It’s one of the hardest things to do. I hope the girls are ok. As adults, we can know that it was for the best, but children don’t see that. Your girls may be too young to understand what loss even truly means. I think they just know that their mom is upset, even when we try to keep it from them. I hope the shopping “therapy” has helped

@JulieKhuu Год назад

The girls are doing great Jeanne-Marie, thank you for thinking of them. Azuki was really “my” dog, so the loss for me was tremendous. My last rescue before having kids, so much sentiment there 🥹

I think I'm addicted to the chartreuse sectional!! I'm not going to be able to get it out of my head for a while! 😂🤣 I also really like the big water picture, and am actually thinking about something like that for my own living room. In any case, great video and I hope you do more like it ... I'm a big fan of your channel. And my heart goes out to you and your family for the recent heartbreak and yucky bug. I'm glad that you guys are getting through it.

@nacmegfeegle2310 7 месяцев назад

What fun stores! I love shopping with you.The only things I disagree with are the pieces that are dust collector/ hard to clean, lots of ridges and intricate textures. Great video!

@LisaApril 11 месяцев назад

I like old brass and carved wood. I think I saw a carved wooden screen in the background and it was beautiful. I just hope it was a real wood. My favorite color is green and my kua color is dark green. Yes, I love reupholstering pieces that the fabric just annoys me but I love the item. I have my grandmother's old velvet ironing plate. You put what look like little pins on the velvet side to not crash the fabric and iron the opposite side. I still have the beautiful gown she made me for an event. I'm a real antique lover and old things lover. I really enjoy your videos. I love studying feng shui and how it benefits people living in a space.

Sorry for your loss😢 How can we differentiate fake vs real marble/stone?

@JulieKhuu Год назад

Thank you 🙏 If you can’t discern it from visually looking at it, there is typically always a label attached or you can ask the vendor. You also see me tapping on the surface with my nails/ fingertips. Fake stone is usually a veneer, feels and sounds like hard plastic when you tap on it. Real stone is heavy and echoes loudly with each tap.

@mariannerichard1321 Год назад

About greys, it's still a neutral and can be integrated into contrasted cold and warm palette to make it more actual. The all grey decor is dated though, I would spice it up with more color, or at least balance it with some warmer neutrals. Well, you could do a whole video about it, I'm sure, something like "freshen up you grey living room on a budget". ^__^

@leighmetzler7565 Год назад

My dog is my world. My condolences to you. ♥️ I have a mid century modern in Palm Desert. Lots of white. I used touches of gray, for example, I was given an appropriate gray sofa with wood trim. The previous owner did driftwood type faux wood floors. The ceilings are a very pale gray. But the doors are bright yellow, the golf course is vivid green and the sky is brilliant blue most days. So I understand if you’re in foggy London, gray sucks. Yellow and gray in a mid century in the desert is lovely. The door knobs are black, the faucets vary from stainless to gold on natural marble, black on white. My house in Sausalito was beige. I hated beige. So prefer white with some gray. My next house will be on the central coast. It will have some caramel. I think it’s all about a little of this with a lovely coordinated or curated color. A pop of yellow and turquoise works in the desert. I love the designers AND they stress me out. I can’t redesign every house without respect for the place, what is there and how the vide feels. I have redecorated with a bulldozer and started from scratch. This lovely mid century with province, deserve another life.

@JulieKhuu Год назад

Sense of place is everything in design, I agree. What may work in one location would look out of place in another. I’ve stayed at many luxury rentals in the desert, filled with vibrant color and life! Keep your theme, just tone it down so it doesn’t borderline on garish 🙌👍
