Hello everyone! This style was highly requested and I imagine it is due to the richly layered, cosy, colourful, and pattern-rich nature of these interiors. One of the things I enjoyed about this style was the honouring of the past through the inclusion of family heirlooms, antiques, and richly stained brown furniture pieces. I believe there are so many ways to make this style your own, whether you wish to go all out or simply include a few inherited or second-hand finds in a fresh and contemporary way. Did you enjoy this style? Let me know below :) xx The first 1,000 people to use the link will get a 1 month free trial of Skillshare skl.sh/suzieandersonhome10221
There's a reason these styles survive. They're so warm and inviting! It's also easy to incorporate personal collections or accessories that speak to owner's lives. You can learn a lot about what's important to friends and family by studying their homes.
Hello Cindy, I agree. Mixing the vintage with contemporary is a welcoming mix that adds a soul and personality to a home. Thanks for your comments and support. Suzie x
Hello Doctor Crusher! What lovely memories you have being in your Grandparent's home. Those traditions can last a lifetime and ones that are lovely to try to continue. Thanks for your support and watching our Channel. Suzie x
@@suzieandersonhome Thank you, Susie. It’s not everyone’s cup of tea, but I love it. I’ve just recently found your channel and find the style of your videos so engaging and beautifully done, regardless of which type of decor is showcased. Thanks fir making them available here. 💕
@@pman2916 yes. I selected some fabrics through an interior decorator’s books and had window treatments made through her workshop, but the color scheme, furnishings and art choices were all mine.
Aaahhhh... finally...! You did MY style.. I LOVE Grandmillennial..! Always have.. Was lovely to sit and see aspects of my decor pop up on screen..! Thank you... It was a lovely video. (and I adore all your others ones as well...) jo
I really love this style, and I’m definitely not a millennial! I’m sort of a mid-century model being born in 1959. But I adore all the beautiful fabrics, tassels, trims, pleats, etc. that make up this style. I love all the details, and I find the style very warm, like a big hug by someone you love dearly.
What a wonderful way to describe it! Yes you definitely don’t need to be a millennial to love or adopt this style. Glad you appreciate all the smaller details 😃 xx
Thank you P Man! This style is definitely different than what I am used to covering and will be curious to hear what you think since you were one of the people that requested this style :D Enjoy! xx
@@suzieandersonhome Wow, what an honour to know you considered my request amongst other's. Your other designs had me questioning what aesthetic I loved because you did such a fantastic job on those..Hampton style was one I dislike but after seeing what you did there, I haven't stopped thinking about it. I see you going places because your creativity is vast!! I have no doubt you will place grand millennial back on top😁
I think you did a great job illustrating elements of this style. Thank you so much for responding to requests! I find this style intriguing because it requires a good eye that can put traditional and contemporary style together in unique ways. It demonstrates how someone can make very traditional furniture look fresh and light. I saw that you included some stills from my favorite IG granmillenial, Alisa Bovino's home too! 👏👏👏
I'm truly drawn to the bold floral prints on Roman Shades! Gorgeous wallpapers. Some beautiful inspiration within, Suzie! It's always wonderful what you put together to share with us. Your all about Class, my dear 🌹❤️ Thank you.
This is a very wealthy, high end representation of grand millennial. I would have liked to have seen a more achievable version featured at least in some of the pictures. This is true of all you videos. They are so well done. Thank you.
Hello Karen, thanks for your comments, it's great to hear what you are looking for inspiration. I like to share images from our stores and designers who are create beautiful rooms with style elements that I enjoy. I think that we can take alot of inspiration from these examples no matter the space we live in. There are definitely many channels on You Tube that focus on more 'how to' styles, so I'm sure you will find one that resonates. Nevertheless, I'm glad you took time to watch ours. Suzie x
Hello Kat! You are right it is definitely a fun and eclectic style, a definitely contrast to my own interior style which is built upon neutrals! Refreshing for the eyes xx
Maturity needed for this style...I have incorporated many of these elements in my home..a crystal chandelier in my bathroom, I'm all about it.. Lovely video ❤
.....it's so interesting, that I have had this type of Decor for basically about 20 years, prior to now,.... with updates here and there ( furniture pieces, draperies, etc ). ... it did not have a certain " Style name " , it was just sort of Classic pieces ( to me ) mixed with French Country. I love the use of Neutral large pieces, drapes and adding colour with rugs, accessories, pillows, etc. Thank you, very enjoyable.
Hello TexasStardust! That is wonderful to hear, from what I believe the style was coined by observing the beauty is exactly what you described! I feel more people are craving that cosy, collected and layered interior that you have xx
@@suzieandersonhome .... how kind of you to reply, thank you so much! It is basically still my style to this day because it IS " cozy, comfortable and collected "... great description, that truly says it. Thank you ! I look forward to seeing more maybe you could do a series on all these certain Styles . May you enjoy a wonderful weekend.
I’m somewhere in between Granny Chic & Traditional with just a smidgen of cottage tucked in here & there. I enjoyed the mixed table settings example and the furniture by design examples too. Love all your videos, they are well thought out and put together! Thank you.
Hello, yes, this style certainly embraces colour and pattern. It is uplifting and energising isn't it! I'm doing the same in my home, but alot of the colour is coming through art and foliage as I've always been more neutral in my personal interior styling. I can see colour can really affect your mood and energy so am enjoying adding it (slowly!) Have a gorgeous week. Suzie x
I think it is lovely, and definitely can appreciate the celebration of color, pattern, old and new! Thanks Suzie!! Love learning new things from these videos you share. ☺️💜
Hello Camilla! Thank you for joining the live towards the end. I hope you have been well and I am so glad you appreciated the use of colours, pattern & old/new decor xx
That's a lovely compliment Miriam. So glad our videos resonate with you and my voice is easy for your to listen to!! I appreciate your support. Suzie xx
I love so much about this style! It's basically what I strive for in our home... a mixture of vintage and inherited pieces and French and English touches that I love with a bit of Coastal color that I include here in San Diego County! And chinoiserie blues with hydrangeas! I am not industrial or minimalist at all. Thank you for all the other beautiful videos!
Hello Debra, I'm glad that this video resonated with you and you enjoy mixing the vintage with the coastal colour. What a lovely combination! Thanks for supporting our channel. Suzie xx
My house organically turned out to be just like that, due to economics. I am an artist and have been given heirloom pieces by friends and family yet have happily married newer pieces that’ve showed in harmonious ways.
Hello Claudia, it sounds like a lovely combination of special gifted pieces and some more of your own contemporary finds. The result being a space you enjoy! That's the main aim! Have a great week. Suzie xx
@@suzieandersonhome Absolutely! No thanks required. You put in the effort, your supporters turn up. I got so much out of it, your talent is inspirational! Have a blessed weekend as well🙏
Hello Pamela, yes, I agree. The vintage elements, colours and patterns can fit beautifully in to this style home. Appreciate your support of our channel. Suzie x
I enjoyed this video immensely & I've learned so much! I hadn't realized it but I've been mixing this style of gran millennial with farmhouse style in my home as I've continued settling in here. I was raised in a minimalist home so I am drawn to that style organically. But I absolutely love color, patterns, botanicals & eclectic items splashed in with the calm neutrals & strong lines of farmhouse decor. It probably sounds ugly LOL. I think it's working well though? I live in a beautifully & sturdily built 135 year old farmhouse out on the literal American prairie. I'm starting to entertain again after the pandemic has eased & I have been getting compliments on my home. It seems like a balance of masculine vs. feminine, vintage vs. timeless, my Scandinavian heritage vs. my spouse's Central European heritage, items collected from travels vs. locally sourced.
Hello Mel Mel, your home sounds like such an eclectic, layered and unique space that reflects everything you love! That is definitely what interior styling is all about. Also how amazing you are located in such natural surroundings. I can imagine it is such a treat for your guests when they come visit and I am happy to hear you are able to entertain more now. I read somewhere the other day that entertaining and having our loved ones over actually increases our sense of being house-proud as it helps build the emotional connection to our home xx
The pendulum swings - from Victorian to Craftsman, from MCM to Early American, from Mom's '60's Maple to '80's Cabbage Roses and cherry stained furniture. We tire of being told what we "must" do and have (farmhouse B&W) and swing a new direction. While the Grand Millennial does have specific elements, it's really just the extravagant release of doing what we damned well please Dorothy Draper style!
Hello Country Sister, thanks for your comments. Yes, alot of the comments about this style agree with you. Through design or choice the Grandmillenial style is one that can evolve simply through inheriting heirloom pieces and combining with those more contemporary pieces you have selected through your own desire. I think the end result is a warm and inviting style...and personal to you! Have a great week. Suzie xx
You have found my decorating style in this video!!! An actual name to call it. This presentation is so beautiful!! I really like my decorations but I see room for improvement and additional ideas and features. Thank you so much for your inspiration. Yes, I look at many of your other projects. Diane Sanford
Gorgeous job Suzie! You really captured the elements well. This style intrigues me because of the creative ways it marries traditional with contemporary. It can make older furniture really come alive set against more modern lines. All the colors, patterns and textures you showed were spot on. Those wallpapers were stunning too. And you even included some stills from Alisa Bovino's home, my favorite IG granmillenial. Thanks so much for this. I will be watching again. ❤
Hello Karen, I'm so glad you were pleased with this video. The colours, patterns and textures really epitomise this style. I can see why Alisa Bovino is your favourite Grandmillenial stylist. Her home is gorgeous and her use of colour is so warm and welcoming. Have a great week and thanks for your support. Suzie xx
Wow - that is the most in-depth video about a design style that I've ever seen - incredibly well done. Thank you for this detailed presentation. I'm a designer and respond best to visual instruction - so gratifying to come across something so well put together.
This style really hit the mark with those Cottages, Victorian, Federations and terrace architecture that are dotted in Australia. A bit nostalgic but keeping it update and not so heavy.
Hello Brendan, thanks for your support and sharing your thoughts on this style. I like the nostalgia...it adds a certain soul to a home, don't you think!? Have a great week. Suzie x
Always love your videos! What a beautiful style even though it’s too busy for me. I’ve been there, done that and now I’m loving a more calm and modern style. I believe I have been able to successfully incorporate my family heirlooms into it though.
Hello Cindi, it is fantastic to hear you found what works for you in your styling journey! Curious what you thought / think of the warm minimalism design style from a few videos back? Xx
In checking out the wallpapers. Zuber fits into large spaces for its beautiful scenic grandeur. De Gournay suitable for large yet a smaller scale of. I gravitate toward De Gournay. Nature. Whimsical. Both are lovely choices! I have a 1/2 bath that I will start at to see if I'm capable of, first!
Ooo that sounds like the perfect space to start! I have seen some really special and unique bathroom designs especially in the smaller bathrooms as it allows you to explore a new look without having to fully commit! Xx
Thank you for watching and supporting our Channel. Your home must be so welcoming. Have you used a mix of painted finishes and wallpapers to achieve the Grandmillenial look? Have a beautiful week. Suzie xx
Around these parts, this particular style is known as either “Long Island Gold Coast” or “ Old Money” style. I’ve been to homes were the furniture have around generations. Many were past down, or bought at antique stores, or at old stores like B. Altman’s, John Wanamaker’s, and W&J Sloan’s.
This is every home I ever saw growing up in south and still are. This is every home I grew up in a mix of antiques and these colors and what I have in my home. We have so many dinnerware sets for every holiday and occasion and and this style has been ripped out for farmhouse styles or new trends in past several years all the wallpaper that's been stripped or furniture painted.
Hi Suzie, totally love your work! May I know, please, the color on the kitchen cabinets - it's a blue, with paneled backsplash, and black round knobs. Sincere thanks.
Hello ADW, is that the photo at 1:49? Unfortunately that is not a design of ours, it is sourced from Pinterest. You could potentially achieve this vibrancy by mixing a few of the Annie Sloan chalk paints listed here: www.anniesloan.com/products/chalk-paint/blue/ Or one of these teal shades by Benjamin Moore: www.benjaminmoore.com/en-us/paint-colors/color/hc-148/jamestown-blue www.benjaminmoore.com/en-us/paint-colors/color/1657/niagara-falls I hope this helps! Otherwise I recommend taking a screenshot of the photo the sending it to your local paint stockist for advice 😃 xx
It is still on our list of video requests. If we do cover it is will be earlier next year as well our video schedule is complete for the remainder of 2022 xx
Hello Nickelini, this style certainly isn't for everyone as it is definitely more layered and colourful than others. I am glad your enjoyed the video nonetheless! Have a great week. Suzie xx
I’m not sure if it is to do with age Margaret 😃 From what I gather it is more so younger generations taking elements from their ‘grandmothers’ homes and adding a contemporary and maximalist twist to it xx
Honestly, for me this is one unattractive style. I have a beautiful mahogany bedroom set that I would love to replace. The problem is that it would cost a fortune get all new quality furniture. I do my best to lighten it up w a some modern lamps, art, bamboo shades and solid linen drapes et al. With this being said, I love all your many style videos and learned so much....probably from one of yours how to lighten up my bedroom.
Thanks for sharing! It's wonderful that there are so many ways people can choose to decorate. Choice is a wonderful thing! It's great that you have found ways to lighten up your space with art, lamps and other touches. I appreciate your feedback on this video and for your support of our channel. Suzie x
Had no idea this was a thing. I've been curating we loved items for thirty years. People always tell me how cozy, inviting and comfortable my house is. I'm not in love with feeling like you might hurt something by sitting down and like a lived in look. Pinterest perfect is not for me.
Great ideas but the music and pace was putting me to sleep. Very talented but the video of slow fades etc isn’t serving you. It was hard to stick with this to the end.
