home decor i think you should get rid of 

Day two of requesting Paige to do a video about bathrooms 🛁 We need this!

I think plants are so personal, keep your plants as many as you like

Counterpoint on velvet: for those of us with cats, it can be the best fabric bc cats are less likely to claw it and destroy your furniture!

I don’t always agree with your hot takes but it’s very refreshing to have someone with a real point of view vs the copy paste stuff you see elsewhere on RU-vid 🙃

Make sure to test your popcorn ceiling before removing because they can contain asbestos!

I vibe with everything you said except when it comes to plants, which makes sense cause not everyone has a green thumb. Plants are enriching af, hard to see them spoken of like they’re statues and not living members of your environment

Not only has your decor advice helped me to have the quirky, cozy, nonconformist home that's me and enriches my life, but your humorous delivery has made it so much fun to watch your channel. I know I will be chuckling and sometimes guffawing my way through--often the high point of my day. No busts, fake terrazzo or plants here Paige! You are a goddamn delight.

There is a wide variety of pillow covers you can buy on line. Instead of throwing out the pillows that came with your sofa, measure them and cover them. SAVES MONEY.

My house was built in 1918 and has a chair rail in the dining room. I love it and think it fits well because of the age of the house. You'd have to pry that chair rail from my cold, dead hands. 🤣 Congrats on 100k! 🎉

Daaaaang. I was riding with you until you got to the velvet. 😂 I absolutely ADORE it, always have. Cheap velvet is one thing. But there’s nothing like a good, thick, heavy, high-quality velvet. It’s cozy, it’s elegant, it’s pet friendly, it lasts forever, it looks good, it feels good . . . 🤷🏾‍♀️

People, please don’t get rid of things just because … Paige. If you like it, it serves a purpose, and/or it’s what you can afford or have room for right now, remember that this is one’s person opinion.

If you have an elderly dog and a long hallway you really need a hallway rug or two;-)) And I really like getting orchids as gifts. They last a lot longer than a bouquet of flowers. Congratulations on your big milestone!

You’ve taught me a lot about interior design, not just tips/tricks but even how to approach it in general. Thanks for adding your personality to your videos and posting so often. They make my day!

Nahhhh. Hanging plants are great

I loved the video!! I so wish I could get my popcorn ceilings removed! Also, counter point: plants can’t go out of style because they were here before us and will be here after us. 😂

I usually agree with you 75% of the time, but I think busts and velvet fabric are classics. We're in a time when those particular classics are copied by mass consumer brands, hence it seems "cheap" and "trendy" to you. If they are not well done, then sure, get rid of them, but if they are quality, they will always be classic. You are still free to not like some classic things of course - there are some classic things I don't like. BTW, quality velvet wears like iron and is one of the best fabrics if you have cats!

U saved me from making so many bad interior decisions. Congratulations on 100k

“Get rid of your orchids” hahaha Your distaste for plants cracks me up so much for some reason haha I usually agree with most of your opinions, but the plants/orchids just makes be giggle haha But I come from a family of maximalist hippies who love plants haha Also, congrats on the 100k trophy!

All plants are beautiful!

I love chair rails and wainscoting. Especially in a vintage (like Victorian era) home.

Was with you up until the orchids. I looooove orchids. Every shape and colour. Each one is a delicate little treasure that rewards your hard work with multiple blooms a year for many years. The orchid section in every botanical garden is magical.

100K congrats to you. Your outlook on life, decor and basketball are all genius. Truly. Candid, refreshing and spot on. xxxox

I can't agree with the "no hanging stuff" ... especially plants😅... If someone loves plants (me. lol) and they like the way it looks 🤷‍♀ I don't think it is outdated, just a personal taste thing. I know most people wouldn't want a load of plants in their space, but some people (me 😅) really love it... I do agree that people should stop gifting orchids. If you are going to gift a plant there are much better ones to give, but I also don't really think we should give plants to people unless we know they like plants. That is coming from someone who has an over abundance of plants. LOL

My house was built in 1895 and although it didn't have chair rail in it when we bought it, we've since put it in (along with picture rail). I think it definitely helps add to the historic/old feeling of the house, which in my opinion is a good thing. I think it's probably not the way to go if you want your house to feel modern but I'm going for a more historic look.

Ohhhh I think chairrails are fun but only if you also use them to implement colour and print into your space, I’m probably biased here my parents have them in their dining room only as a way to separate the two wallpapers they have and I love it

I think with the chair rails the trick is to lean FULLY IN and add trim moulding above and below of the rail 🙈 it makes the room feel SO SPECIAL.

So interesting how people can view the same things so differently! Whenever I see velvet, I feel like it looks expensive and elevated. And it's also comfy, so it's a win all around for me lol.

Can you do a video on good light fixtures? I’ve been putting off exchanging the ceiling light fixtures my place came with, but I’m a bit underwhelmed by my options. Also, a video on office spaces done right and how to guide for people working from home (a desk in their bedroom or in a multiple purpose room).

I agree with you 100% except for the orchids! I love the long lasting flowers they provide. P.S. You have a great smile!

Congrats on 100k Paige!! I love your channel, your takes, and I love when I don’t necessarily agree with you too! That’s the beauty of style, opinions, homes etc. your pov is always so well thought out I have to appreciate it. I think while not everyone is set out to have a /beautiful/ home like you have in mind, your suggestions totally do make spaces a bit less cheap for lack of a better word, its usually great advice. But like rules in any creative field, you’ve gotta know them to break them tastefully

As far as florals go I really like getting arrangements that are in line with the seasons where I live! It’s been a nice way to lean in and decorate according to the time of the year

I ordered performance velvet fabric from Interior Define and I honestly thought ‘Paige would judge me for this’ - BUT it’s like one of the only fabrics I’ve read positive things about regarding to standing up to pet abuse/ claw marks. Hoping they don’t look cheap when they finally arrive.

Congrats Paige! Ur vid and advice is such a refreshing cut to the chase style that I love! U def deserve your success on YT with the great content u produce! Loved seeing u on Nick!’s channel!

Awe….I love giant plants. We have a cactus that’s about 10 feet tall. ❤️🌵❤️🌵❤️🌵

Paige I would sooo love a vid on how to style a bookshelf/objects to use and ways to make it look more interesting! Love from London x

Congrats on 100k 🎉❤ I love your decor advice! It’s helped me make my space feel more unique and me

Track curtains in the vertical blinds track are a great idea. Didn't know you can fit them in! I've just removed the blinds and installed curtain rods, but it'd be more convenient to push open and close this way. Orchids have very 1990-2000s luxury spa vibes. They're not that easy to care for, and there are plenty of other more interesting plants to have in your space. In general, it's better to grow plants you actually like that will work with your lighting instead of what is trendy. Fiddles and cactus need a lot of sun. It's a problem waiting to happen.

It feels weird to dislike different plants for being “trendy” lol. I live in Miami and am obsessed with my giant porch cactus. I also love my hanging pothos ivy and obsessed with linewash. For me, anything natural or organic materials is not a trend. I think you can get away with lime wash and plants. I just don’t see those ever being “popcorn ceilings” lol

congrats on 100K whoo! chair rails: agree, unless it's old original wood. lime wash: i think doesn't feel right when it's not actually old. when you're trying too hard is when it just looks bad with most of these things, it needs to fit! i feel like the thing that's hard to express about interiors is the lived-in vibe. that's where the weird rugs and busts come into play they just don't feel natural to the space.

I love that I started following you when you had like 20-30k followers. Glad to see relatable content grow

As an owner of a large desk who converted to a tiny desk, I adore my tiny desk. It actually keeps me wayyyy more organized as my old desk was just a big counter for me to drop and hide my junk. Also, due to my living arrangement-not super practical. Which Paige touched on. It depends on the person but I gotta disagree on a bigger workspace making you more organized.

Congratulations! You would hate my velvet chairs, but I think you’d love my vintage desk lol 😘

Wow congrats!!!! Been following since waaay back its awesome to see your growth. I have always looked forward to your videos and you’ve helped shape my design taste immensely. Thank you! Very excited to follow along once you find the perfect apartment in LA

Congrats on over 100k! Love your channel and style :)

You deserve more subscribers Paige !!!. Your videos are not only educational, they are also so fun to watch. ❤️🎉

Well done Paige - you deserve all your success. Love your authentic voice, dry sense of humour and great taste!

Super grateful for the comment on symmetry as I couldn’t figure out why I felt dissatisfied with my symmetrical setup around my media console but now will play around with it. U save my interior. I thank u.

I love your unique opinions. Very clever. And Congrats you are loved on RU-vid 👍❤

Hi Page congrats! I have a bust for over 15 years in black, its huge..it was passed on from my aunt.. its a keeper for me..

Do not touch your popcorn ceiling until you test for asbestos.

Pro-tip: chair rails can be used as the "poor man's" wainscoting. It's an effective way to keep costs down. Paint both the chair rail and everything below it the same colour. It creates a faux wainscoting look, love from Australia xox 🌻❤🤠

Congratulations! I absolutely love your channel and your style🖤 your advice helped me to upgrade my space and develope my own taste.

Congrats! Well deserved! ❤ I love the vintage bust sculpture we have in our home! 😅

Congrats Paige!! Been with ya since you were at 4K followers. I’m not leaving either 👏

Paige: Love your candid design feedback!

I really enjoy your content. Congratulations on the plaque! I do have a couple thought on this video. It seems to be a really common misconception that busy colorful designs work well for actual child’s room. And I often see RU-vidrs repeating this by saying, maybe you should move this to your child’s room. But children tend to be extra sensitive to over stimulation and it can result in more stress for your child and more behavioral issues by having them in an overstimulating space. So I would not recommend super colorful Terrazzo for a child’s room. Also as a cat owner, performance velvet is probably the best material for holding up to cat claws. So I probably will not be getting rid of my performance velvet furniture ever. As a fellow Theater kid I could already tell that you were a theater kid without you saying so lol. Thank you for the content that you create!

theater kids everywhere are rejoicing to know that someone as cool and chill as paige was once one of us 🤩

I nervously side-eyed my orchid sitting to my left as I watched this vid. LOL. I love your channel!

Before you remove your popcorn ceilings check for asbestos!!!!!!!

Hey Paige, congratulations on your RU-vid award. I suspect you put a lot of work into your channel, and I appreciate your videos.

Yeah… I just got new throw pillow covers bc the ones that came with my sofa were really good quality!

I get to keep my bust because I bought him ten years ago from the Library of Congress gift shop. Ben Franklin will stay forever. 😄

love your channel and so happy to see a video! just a little psa that always get your popcorn ceilings tested for asbetos before removing them ourself xx

Congratulations Paige! You totally deserve it! I look forward to your videos every week!

Congrats on 100k Paige! I've been following your videos since the beginning of the year and it's been so cool watching your channel grow. On the subject of small desks for small spaces, would you ever do a video on Tiny Houses? I'm currently in the process of building one and the interior design in the tiny house community seems to suffer from a very bad case of farmhouse and boho chic. It would be so cool to hear your thoughts on how you would approach a tiny space.

Congrats on the plate🎉 love your contents as always

You're entertaining as hell. I love your snarky/kind combo.

Congrats on 100k Paige!🥳🌻

Congratulations on 100K! Well deserved! I never got into busts or terrazzo, either.

Agree with everything you commented on. I’d love your opinion on rugs under dining room tables.

PAige, just love your video's always!!! I have bought a house and I'm almost 'done' furnishing it (your never really done though...), and you've been such a big influence in my style decisions. Honestly it look sooo good now, cosy, cool, homey but also designy.. :D One note about the youtube plaque above the toilet (congrats btw!!! siiii well deserved!): it is really bad Feng Shui to do that. Eveything you hang above or near the toilet is what you don't want to attract in the future. You 'flush' away the energy of the item. It is a great place to do thing you don't really want in you life (darker colors, dried plants, ...) . I don't know if I 'believe' in feng shui, but better safe than sorry and not put your family pictures or awards above the toilet :p

Congrats on 100k Paige !!

Rugs are part of soft furnishings and seem to help for a cozier acoustics along with color infusion.

Love this honesty, need more please

New viewer but loving your videos as I prepare to move into a new space. Would love to hear more tales from your prop styling gigs!

Congrats! Love your straight no chaser opinions and recommendations.❤️

Books are not decor, and neither are plants. I’m lucky to have and indoor garden room where my 60+ orchids live in winter, along with my giant (and small) cacti. And a handful of tropical trees. It’s a joy room. Only cut flowers venture into the rest of the house because it’s darn near impossible to live with the kind of light needed to keep growing plants healthy. I enjoy your (sometimes) draconian opinions even though I value rule breaking as a rule. My house and gardens are a respite from rules-my “church." So far, my house of worship does not include cheap blue velvet or vertical blinds, but if it did-I’d be cool with that.

OMG THANK YOU with the busts!! I never understood them!

My take on chair rails: they can definitely read traditional, but may have their place, eg in a 3rd fl room with weird ceiling lines, or in. a dining room which otherwise looks and sounds like an echoey box. I'd use care not to go full traditional cove moldings. And I would consider them in a very large living room. In main, I think if you have a room that would benefit from two different wall treatments-paint and wallpaper, two-tone, etc in order to unify celling lines, add interest, or break up a vast volume, then yes. And definitely, if you have an historic house with old growth hardwood deep cove and crown molding, preserve them. Or at the very least, salvage for someone. Maybe the ticket, if you have them, is to do some really unexpected funky wallpaper over or under.

I agree with you so much on everything. Keeping my hanging plant though, but there is no macrame if that helps!

Congrats 🎉 Would love videos of you going to peoples house and helping them with their existing stuff. Not really buying anything new but styling their existing furniture, art, knickknacks plants etc.

You are fresh air. There should be an award for that and you'd win. Congrats on the 100k Well deserved. And this is just the beginning. Greetings from Argentina.

I have a lot to say today! Re chair rails--I toured a historic home years ago and that early 1800s home had chair rails. The guide explained it was because in those days, after dinner, everyone literally pushed the furniture up against the walls. Chairs and tables were rarely in one fixed spot, but pulled out and placed wherever you wanted to use them. That's why early American furniture is so delicate and light. And rooms weren't crammed full of furniture either. For some reason I like to imagine George Washington pulling his chair up to the fireplace.... I guess when big, heavy Victorian furniture came into fashion the custom of pushing furniture against the wall went away. But anyway, chair rails were to literally protect the walls from the furniture that was pushed up against it. Therefore, they really serve no purpose in this day and age.

Congratulations 🎊 you are super interesting and educational to watch, and a pleasure fo see and listen. Thanks for sharing 👍

Disagree with getting rid of orchids! I adore mine, especially my mini moth orchids, that rebloom for me every year.

Congratulations on reaching over 100,000 subscribers!! You deserve it! Continued success to you!! 🎉👍🏾👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿🔥🥂🍾

oh wow! i never thought of getting rid of my vertical blinds for track curtains!

Chair rails are fine, just paint them and the entire wall (not just half) the same color. The chair rail will then become a minor detail.

yessss love the flex paige, congrats on the award!!

Congratulations on your plaque. I was wondering if you could do a show on light fixtures. We built our home 20+ years ago and have way too many boob lights. I'm looking for suggestions for flush mount lights that suit different styles of homes and don't break the bank. We also have standard height so I need things that aren't too bulky or hanging too low, especially for areas like my front entrance. Thanks

I had never heard of chair rails, or just never heard it called that. Thoughts on other forms of board and batten? Not personally into one board around the whole room, but love traditional wainscoting.

Congrats on 100k it’s a big achievement!

Omg that popcorn ceiling video was so satisfying

Congrats on your plaque! I think putting it in your bathroom is perfect, it shows humility. You deserve it! 🍾

loveeee your tips and style everything that you say you don't like I take it very seriously lol and take mental notes about it , congrats on the plaque !

Congrats on the plate. You’ve come so far in this past year or so

I love the conviction of your opinions!! And you’re so funny

Congrats on your plaque! Love your vids!

Love this list! Would love to have a solution for a rental w popcorn ceiling. Also no mention of mirrored closet doors. Despise!! Opinion?

Congratulations on 100k! 🎉
