    One of the things I love about your content, and which differs from other CZcamsrs, is that you don’t solely rely on the base content to build up your video. What I mean is that, you are so entertaining and charming when you talk about whatever the content is, that I don’t want to skip anything because I might miss something hilariously relatable while you’re showing us a vase or a piece of art. So, while I’m interested in learning about the decor, I’m also invested in your personality and unique point of view. Thank you❤

    Comments on Caroline's videos sit at a different level, don't they? Have you ever read so many thoughtful, engaging notes that just say "This is good. Really good. This makes me happier than I was before. Don't stop doing this. PS Can I be your friend?" The sincerity and genuine connection is just here in a different way. Can we all be friends?

      Oh dear, do whatever you believe is necessary to take care of yourself. I will be there as soon as you are ready to share something of your life and thoughts again. The most important thing is that you are fine. Any social media is absolutely secondary. As soon as instagram and so on, no longer contribute to your well-being they are definitely the first things to de reduced.

    I could listen for hours to you explaining the ways in which you approach home improvement, all the while fumbling with your camera and babbling on about life, decor, and making weird eye contact with our neighbours. You've just got a way of editing that makes your video's so engaging. I don't know how to explain this, but your vlogs feel like you are talking to a friend, like other vloggers who talk with the person filming. But you are able to engage with viewers in that same real way. Quite the skill!

    Don’t replace the beautiful sofa, find a beautiful fabric foot stool at the same height, that’s what I did and I am so happy with it! Also gives the option for another visual layer of fabric texture or print, and can be used in another room if ever you moved, or as a coffee table with a tray, or extra seating for guests if needed!

      We definitely had these backpack phases when I went to school in the late 90s/2000s. You started with a Scout, then as an older primary school/Gymnasium kid you updated to a 4You and after that it was Eastpacks or large cross-body bags. I miss my 4You the most, those really were good quality.

    As someone with minimal storage space, I love to decorate with store-bought pumpkins. They're inexpensive, biodegradable, brightly colored, and last for-freaking-ever if you don't cut them open. Then, when they're ready to go, I can compost them.

      It's super difficult to Not decorate based on bargains/ budget, though.
      Ideally, our homes are filled with beautiful pieces which we pick and choose based on our style.
      Realistically, it's often more like : a friend gave you something for free and so you build a vibe around that thing that you enjoy.
      Interestingly enough, setting immovable parameters are one of the best ways to keep focus and draw inspiration

It's beautiful but so delicate, never gets used and takes up a lot of space. We want to figure out how to I'd qhay we really do love and figure out ways to repurpose them in fresh ways...

It's a performance velvet fabric, which is very forgiving since I spill a lot. After 4 years of owning it, I found out it's a deep seat couch which adds to my upper back pain.

Fall is my favorite season and I SO wish I wasn't allergic to flowers because the way you used them is so lovely. But alas, I cannot copy that or my eyes will start watering and the sneezing will commence within minutes. But I love the way you have the essence of Fall without a theme loudly announcing its arrival. Nicely done!

    Love all your treasures. The book your dad made is incredible even better you can browse whenever you want, what memories. Find a pedestal stand to put it on. Also, I love your house it's so comfortable, not perfect, even better. Your the best oh and because we just went through a hurricane so I'm not at work, drinking coffee watching Caroline I'm at home drinking tea at my desk in the sunroom, yeah. You're the best girl and thank you for another video to help lift the spirits and educate as well. Have a great day, see you next week. Oh, and by the way, really like this video.

    I never know what to expect from one of your videos and I love that. I was expecting something completely different from this video, but it was perfect in every way. Your design advice has been so helpful to me. I recently starting mixing a few modern pieces in with some sentimental items that belonged to my grandmother, mother, aunts, etc., and it has made such a big difference in the way my house looks. Everything was feeling way too old and dated and I wasn't enjoying any of these things at all and was considering just getting rid of them. Now it seems fresher and more updated around here and I'm starting to see how I can make some of them work. I still have a long way to go, but I just wanted to say thank you for this and all the other advice you offer.

As someone who is paring down for retirement, your comment about getting only fall things that die made me laugh out loud! Yes, good advise. I cannot count how many glass and felt pumpkins I have…seriously?? Was this necessary? No. No it wasn’t, but when I had kiddos around I felt like really doing up the seasons. In retrospect, it would have been better to just by the dying shit only. lol Keep up the fab work!

    Caroline, your fall decor is beautiful! And a wall lamp with a wooden shade is rather gorgeous. The whole room is very warm I full of personality. You are so right that ''seasonal decor'' should consist of something that eventually dies. I have also something that comes from something actually dead - like pheasant feathers on a small marble tray.

You really know how to get it done - but of course that's something to be expected from a strong self sufficient woman such as yourself. Thanks for sharing a tour of your lovely cozy D.C apartment.

    Just got my “Caroline Fix” So glad to see you love the old with the new…traditional and contemporary/modern. I alway liked this combination and this way of decorating. Lately, I’ve been having the uneasy feeling that I was just “old fashion” and was not with it anymore cause of how I decorate….then you came along and wow’d this style…lots of character. I feel like I can continue to decorate with what makes me happy! Yes, a vase from Anthro with potted Flowers makes my world happy….thrifted candlesticks which I’m currently looking for, although have my eye on Anthropology ones I’ve seen!! I’m not the only one who loves a good looking sample of gorgeous wallpaper to frame! So what I’m trying to say is that how I decorate and put my spin on things is validated by you!!! Now I can stop asking people what they think. Always look forward to what your doing next. Question: I know white wall are in & gorgeous, but I did a pretty taupe/beige thruout my home with white. Sounds gross but very warm and cozy feel…it’s a Georgian colonial so keeping with its style…more fireplaces the better. Hopefully it’s not dating me? (here I go again)

I'm so glad that you showed close ups of the art in the 4 matching frames on the left side of the bay window (I was SO curious!) and I LOVE the art in them as well, very cool. Like your Autumn vibe, it's nice. Also, what is a "removed cousin"? 🧡🍂🧡 p.s. LOVE the family photo album and especially love that you have it on display!! 🤗

    Really dig your style. It’s like a mix of traditional, minimal, and cozy. If I were you though, I’d add a tall plant to the corner of the credenza, between the TV and that bay window. Maybe a tall Snake plant because they’re so easy going and sculptural. I love the organic textures and shapes of plants. Especially when they start to arch for window light nearby. It also helps break up all the right angles in a room.

I was also thinking, I'll bet DC has a greater variety of fresh flowers available. Where I live it's either really expensive or just not all that in terms of flowers. I don't like fake flowers at all, but if it's just a single vase, I'll do it. At least I can use them year after year.

    A potted plant used for decor is genius, because near the end of the season, when you’re beginning to redecorate, you can take the plant as a hostess gift to a friend’s house. No storage problem, and it doesn’t need to die! This works best if it’s a friend with a patio or yard, so it can go right into the ground after they enjoy it for a couple of weeks inside.
    The way you put your long table in that tripartite window area is also genius. I learn a few things every time I watch your videos. Thanks- again!
