    Yes to big statement pieces in small rooms. I bought a 120x160 cm vintage art exposition advertising poster for me and my boyfriend's living room/office/gaming room. It actually makes the room look more spacious and calm.

      Heyo! I can totally see that. What a dream to have a big art piece like that!

      YES! Completely agree.

    I also agree with the tip about bigger items making a room seem smaller. I think it depends on the item and your home layout.

    Part of a beautiful apartment is keeping it tidy and clean and I would be interested to know what motivates you. So everything - what kind of music you listen to, or what candles you light, whether you talk to friends on the phone at the same time, and what products you find useful (be it the most ingenious sponges or a vacuum cleaner or a mob, or really cleaning products. ) And how often you do these household chores. And I really liked your styles videos. and those where you take us with you in everyday life.

    A New video about home décor : I’m thrilled. I personally have a accent color in every room : English green in the kitchen, candy rose in the bathroom, dark blue in the entrance, a ocre wall in the bedroom, a ashy blue in the bottom parts of the walls in the toilets, and it does not feel to much, I’m always surprised by it, it just make me happy everyday :)
    And since your video about lamps I want to put a pendant light above my dinner table :)
    Thank you for being inspiring and relatable !

    I love all your videos, but I especially love a vlog style. Glimpses of lives in different places, from a different perspective. I always enjoy seeing out and about in Copenhagen or wherever you happen to be when filming. Not exactly an innovative idea, but just my favourite

    • @AlejandraCerda
      @AlejandraCerda  Před 3 měsíci +1

      I'm so happy you say that! Usually vlogs get less views, but if I know that people enjoy them, I'm happy to make them (it's not all about the views). I really enjoy making them, and I enjoy watching those videos myself, just peeking into someone else's life for a bit. Thank you for sharing this!

    Darker colours do not make a room smaller. I found the eye hits a white wall quicker, and dark colour gives a sense of depth, making the room feel bigger.
    The perceived depth is deeper with a darker colour, almost like looking into a tunnel where you can't see the end (very drastic example...)

    • @AlejandraCerda

      Yes 🙌 I hope more people dare to try colours!

    These are excellent suggestions and could actually be helpful for homes of any size! 😊👍👍 You have such great taste in interior design and decorating, and in anything related to style! I’m so happy to see your channel continue to grow! 👏🥳 Also, I have seen photos of you in other people’s sewing videos recently; I was like, hey that’s Alejandra!! 😍😄 Congrats on having your sewing skills recognized in this way! And you’re super gorgeous, so you obviously make a wonderful model!! 😍

      Oh thank you so much for your very kind words! Makes me so happy to hear that you appreciate what I do! Oh, really? Fun! I did model for Wardrobe By Me Patterns, is it perhaps those photos you've seen? 😍😊

      @@AlejandraCerda Yes! Thank you; I could not remember which pattern company it was! One video was from Leena Norms and another from The Fold Line! 😊 I definitely watched at least one other video that showed photos of you modeling, but I just can’t remember what it was. Are you participating in Sew Frugal 2024?? 😊 If it interests you, it would be cool to see a video where you talk about what it was like for you to be a pattern tester and model for an indie sewing pattern company! 😊❤️

    If you show us in a video what you prepare for a dinner with friends, etc. I would also be interested to know what you think are the most important/most beautiful utensils in the kitchen and also for the table. Or which ones you might still dream about or wish for.

    • @AlejandraCerda
      @AlejandraCerda  Před 3 měsíci

      So funny you’re mentioning this! My husband who’s a former chef told me the other day I should do a video of kitchen utensils and kitchen stuff in general! Writing that down! 🫶 Thanks!

    I'm never convinced by anyone on YT who gives design "advice" with a backdrop of white walls and clutter stacked behind them. If you want to give advice, back it up with photos of YOUR space to show how you've applied your advice. Random images of other people's designs you found on the internet does not give you credibility. I just clicked on the "Do not recommend this channel" button.
