Love her home ❤️❤️❤️💯 so original
She obviously has no idea what MCM is
I see the art work on your green wall is a photograph of the beautiful Gene Tierney. My daughter has that exact bar with the three stools in the shape of camels. It’s very cool!!!
Fantastic work Megan!!! It’s wonderful, I love it, so creative!
I love her dress! can also appreciate the effort taken to create her home, which is very on trend at the moment.
What A Wonder. We are on the Same Vibe. Mine’s is Eclectic. Her’s is 70’ True Chic.
I Love It!!! Keep The Unique Coming!!!
in lov with her voice
Her voice is painful
I love everything about your lovely home. It’s especially nice to see that you made decisions to bring things that you truly love into your home. Beautiful!
Megan ..beautifully done!! So nice to see someone who decorates their home with a personal style. With all the cookie cutter homes you see everywhere….your home is warm and inviting!! Enjoy your journey finding treasures for your home.
Yikes. Makes me anxious.
That vocal fry killed this video dead.
Where are the shag carpets??
Made nice. Love your home
I lived through the 70s. Orange shag carpet and teak.
Ok can we please stop the gutteral speaking voice.
So campy in the best way ever! I love this whole space!
I cannot get past how gravely her voice is, yikes.
Love these ‘home’ videos! Thank you!
Paint the pool the color of an avocado seed
couldn’t watch, her voice is so annoying
Groovy baby!
Being that I didn’t like the 70s the first time around… I have to say that this isn’t a style that I would embrace. HOWEVER, I LOVE LOVE LOVE the fact Megan DOES love it, and it warms my heart to see all of these lost pieces finding a new home, being loved and curated so admirably, so creatively. Her love of (and interest in) these objects, lends them new value. I think this is just fabulous. Brava!!
Love ❣️ your dress Paisley Pattern and color Story .. interesting how you Wanta redo the 70′ Ever think you might have died in that era while young so long to return to that time deminsion… Nice but Love mid century but am Happy to Love in 2022 but bring the best designs forward throughout Time… like the Eurokes Chairs
Vocal fry. Bye.
It was really hard to get through this video with her croaking voice😵💫Hopefully she doesn’t always sound like that
I want to watch this, but the vocal fry is too much. But I bet she did a great job on the space!
Yikes. It feels like she doesn’t quite know how to style things. This gives me more antique mall vibes than a home you’d want to live in. The rooms feel ‘stuffed’, dark and dated, but not in the fun 70’s way she thinks it does. If she toned it back a bit and didn’t thrift absolutely everything that looked from the era, I think it would feel a lot nicer.
Your home is beyond fabulous!!!!
WOW! Megan, you are so talented!!! LOVE your home and your design choices!!!
She has the most pronounced vocal fry I have ever heard in a human voice.
Clear your throat girl!
I can’t with her suppressed voice. The house is lovely tho!
her voice is croaky !
I love the 1970s style.
This is stunning, how do I hire her to do my apartment
Loved it and especially the brass shell wall plant hanger
Maybe title it “Late Mid-Century?” I lived through all the eras you have included. People did keep things from previous eras but they didn’t wear 60s clothes during the 70s! They would have been laughed at. The 70s also had an emphasis on wood, plants, handmade ceramics. The upholstery was jewel tones. American oak was big. Your patio works but rattan was big in the 50s not the 70s. Yes, people kept it but reupholstered it or put it someplace non-prominent.
The frame wall…check out the film “The Owl and the Pussycat” where Barbara Streisand’s character introduces the concept of a hall of frames! I went home and did it immediately after seeing the movie!
Oh my God, her voice 😫. I’m sorry for her husband
I like the vibe and look of this home, but it’s maybe 20% 1962 Mid Century and 80% 1972.
Her voice is irritating
My living room chair is new 10 piece vase new every thing else is second hand I don’t like new thing they don’t feel right like the old stuff
The vocal fry sweet jesus
Her voice my gosh it’s annoying. I didn’t even finish watching
It irks me so much that the painting isn’t centered in the frame… WHY?! (1:59)
I wanted to enjoy…. But her voice …. I just unconsciously coughed to clear my throat…
Very nice! I’m of THAT generation and find a sense of peace in returning to the decor of that era. I’m always surprised when people so much younger also appreciate that era’s decor.
I, too, have a place built in the 70’s and am furnishing it accordingly. In fact, my couch is the same color as the couch in the video! I have a much smaller flat-screen TV than the one I saw in the video, though, and am building a TV console to house the TV. It won’t be nearly a deep as the old TVs used to be – but it will be long, low, and on five-inch legs. The idea is to create a nice, clean, piece of furniture that is consistent with the mid-century decor without being a boxy duplicate of a real mid-century TV. Just going for the FEELING of stepping back and a sense of harmony. I’m surprised that people don’t seem to be doing this already. I guess everyone prefers much larger TV screens that would be too big to incorporate in a 70’s-format console.
Her vocal fry is killing me
her voice is very interesting
