    Amazing! I love this ❤

  2. Mary Johnson on March 30, 2023 at 9:00 am

    Nice video, really appreciate your clear and simple breakdown on financial pitfalls! lost so much on Crypto’s, but now making around $9000-$12000 every week trading different on stocks and Cryptocurrencies…

  3. Julie Wendt on March 30, 2023 at 9:00 am

    Again you’re teaching me something new! I have to go out and get that carpet tape!!

  4. Cindy Reichard on March 30, 2023 at 9:01 am

    I’m curious about the carpet tape, can you use it with a runner on a hardwood floor?

  5. Rayme B on March 30, 2023 at 9:02 am

    Do you still do consultations?

  6. Jess Gale on March 30, 2023 at 9:03 am

    Hi Rob, great recommendations! Thank you! ❤️ Would love a video on your top 5 body skincare products please! Lots of love xxx

  7. valarya on March 30, 2023 at 9:06 am

    I’ve never been able to find faux greenery that doesn’t look horrible. Please please share a few places where I can get large green branches for my entryway if you know any 🙏

  8. Lisa Saliture on March 30, 2023 at 9:07 am

    Love the iron candle holder which is black and has the round circle on your console side table. Where did you get that??? Thank you ❤

  9. Hercules Rockefeller on March 30, 2023 at 9:08 am

    Thank you so much for the advice, Kristen.

  15. Edelweiss Apostol on March 30, 2023 at 9:18 am

    I will try the long rug in my tiny long kitchen. Thanks.

  16. Sally Cowan on March 30, 2023 at 9:21 am

    Love the slated wood sideboard in your video!!! Do you know where it came from???

  17. vinai kalyan on March 30, 2023 at 9:21 am

    Yeah very well explained ❤

  18. Wendy P on March 30, 2023 at 9:22 am

    Hi Kristen, once you gave a link to a site where you could download art posters. Could you put it up again? I’d be very grateful. I think you used it to decorate your mother’s office? Many thanks.

  19. Caroline McGarry-Ross on March 30, 2023 at 9:22 am

    I love the fact that you use Walmart, Ikea, and also do a lot of thrifting. That is real life. Sometimes designers on TV use all high end , good grief who has that kind of money these days?! I have used many of your ideas and love them, I find they make a house a HOME.

  20. gimmeproof on March 30, 2023 at 9:23 am

    good stuff! love the ideas.

  21. PonySoldier on March 30, 2023 at 9:23 am

    I dont know why you blur book names but I’m all for it so that the Tom Ford situation doesnt happen again!! 😂

  22. D.ganesh vijay kumar on March 30, 2023 at 9:23 am

    Nice explanation & thank you so much for this information

  23. Betty Paulino on March 30, 2023 at 9:24 am

    Hello! Nice video thank you. 🙌 I would like to ask you that could you give us ideas on how to keep those sofas so clean?

  24. Jerri Dorr on March 30, 2023 at 9:24 am

    Is carpet tape safe for rental unit floors (wood)

  25. Nabila A on March 30, 2023 at 9:26 am

    So this is just one big, massive advert for Walmart.

  26. Komal on March 30, 2023 at 9:26 am

    Wonderful ! Your idea of floor decoration is fabulous. Kristen.

  27. Mahalia on March 30, 2023 at 9:26 am

    I have been looking for a rug to go with my Carmel colored sofa, thanks to you suggesting Loloi rugs, I think I may have found the right rug

  28. Angela Marie on March 30, 2023 at 9:26 am

    These are some good tips that are easy to implement. (especially for those of us who are not the best with design) My current project is new curtains for our sliding door. Going to take down the black rod / black curtains. Chose a double curtain rod to layer white sheer curtains under thick, white privacy curtains. Have already done the same in our family room. You are right — it makes a big difference!

  29. Atelier Stitching on March 30, 2023 at 9:29 am

    I painted my living room walls in Chantilly Lace because I get no natural sunlight in there-only at 7pm for about 30 mins. How can I soften up the space to make a warm minimalistic feel to it? I’m stumped. Thanks.

  30. Erin E on March 30, 2023 at 9:31 am

    Beautiful ideas, but any Walmart I’ve been to doesn’t carry curtains or runners long enough.

  31. Shakurah H on March 30, 2023 at 9:32 am

    Hi, I love all the ideas, ai actually used some already and didn’t even realize what I was doing. Lol but I added the rug in the kitchen when we renovated it. I have leather furniture and added really pretty velvet and faux fur pillows. My kitchen light over the island space is rectangle like the island. The curtain technique I learned a while ago so I raised all of them to the ceiling and added an under layer. And my mom always had beautiful plants and flowers in our home growing up and she taught me how to take care of them so I just followed her footsteps on that. Thx I’ll keep watching. I told my friend I remember when she first started just re decorating her parents house and her sister’s house..keep up the good work!

  32. Bev Fast on March 30, 2023 at 9:32 am

    great video

  33. Sandy Makin on March 30, 2023 at 9:34 am

    Very helpful advice. Enjoyed being reminded of these things.

  34. Kimberly Katherina on March 30, 2023 at 9:34 am

    Thanks, Kristen! I always enjoy your videos! Quick question: Is there an online store you like to use to buy picture matting? I’ve been searching on Amazon and find the cost more than what I want to pay and the selection uninspiring! Any suggestions?

  35. shirley & sammy perez on March 30, 2023 at 9:34 am

    Great tips! Thanks so much!

  36. Sheila Ternovacz on March 30, 2023 at 9:38 am

    I always love your videos. I love your floors! Are they hardwood? Vinyl? We’re looking to get new flooring

  37. Jennifer Dijamco on March 30, 2023 at 9:39 am

    What type of scissors do you use for your carpet tape?

  38. Nina Otan on March 30, 2023 at 9:40 am

    IMHO people who want themselves or their homes to look expensive are pitiful pretenders. They want to look what they are not because they can’t be what they would like to be.

  39. Laura Wolf on March 30, 2023 at 9:46 am

    🥰

  40. Diane Baker on March 30, 2023 at 9:46 am

    Beautiful ideas for the home 🏡

  41. Cybil Brandt on March 30, 2023 at 9:48 am

    I’ve been watching your design for years. Love the apartment makeover. Recently bought a new house with plantation shutters and struggling to determine curtains or no curtains because I love when they’re completely open, but the design of where thr windows are doesnt allow for all of them to be open at the same time. maybe some how to pick curtains tips and tricks besides high and wide would be something you make a video about.

  42. Trey Wall on March 30, 2023 at 9:48 am

    Amazing!!! I needed this… super helpful!

  43. Carolyn Grotaers on March 30, 2023 at 9:49 am

    Thank you, Kristen.
    I will be using your floor runner tip for sure.😀
    I, too, love mat frames, around artwork or photos. 😀

  44. Debbie Arellano on March 30, 2023 at 9:49 am

    Thank you Kristen, great video, I wait for your videos because they are the best

  45. Vita Vivendi on March 30, 2023 at 9:50 am
