I change things around about 5 times per year…the four seasons and Christmas. When my husband was alive he would say, “The great migration has begun! Change the rugs, change the pillows, just keep the husband!” At first it made him a little uneasy, but after the second year he started looking forward to the surprises. He said if it was up to him he’d throw a pizza on the wall, call it a picture be done with it! Such a good sport in so many ways.
I always liked you makeup. What kind of blush do you use.?
The sofa is so much better in that direction. It's no longer blocking the Chi. The energy is flowing!
Totally agree 😊 Rosie O 🏴
I could listen to you all day. You’re always fun, informative, and inspirational. Thank you.
One of your very best videos! I took notes all the way through! Thanks for great information.
I hope you will be spared the negativity that has been cropping up here and everywhere. The sense of entitlement that so many are displaying when expressing opinions is disheartening to this 71 year old. If I don’t like someone else’s choices, I move on. Thank you for being you.
Oh Linda you are so enjoyable ! Love everything you do ! Hugs
It's the El Nino weathet pattern. I recall weather like this in 1972
Love the new location for the settee. Don’t we all imagine how we would arrange furniture if we lived in the house we are admiring? I would move the other Dad chair from the kitchen to the parlor. Take out the banquet table and Mom chair. Use the banquet just as a side seat. Put a long and narrow dining table in the middle centered on your beautiful rug with six country style dining chairs (or incorporate your 2 original dining chairs from the parlor into the six). This will give you a dinning room and it will be useful often and not relegated to its own room. The banquet would be a nice seating nook. I would not have a tv in the cabinet. Maybe open the cabinet and use it for storage and display. Your mom and dad seating is now on each side of the fireplace in the parlor. I might even go so far as putting a tall narrow bar table behind the couch in the family room as sofa table and moving the kitchen stools into the family room to use with the bar table. Just my arrangements for living in your home and not in anyway critical or offensive.
Front parlor looks fantastic! As someone else suggested, I would move the dining table to center on the rug, and have chairs all around for traditional seating. Personally, I would remove the banquet completely and replace with a great storage buffet cabinet. You have to make your space for you, but the table situated the way it is currently doesn’t look right. Very off balance.
Not only raise your mood, but raise your shirt collar! Looks great!
I change pillows, throws, rugs and curtains with the seasons. The bedroom also gets a seasonal makeover. Its nice to have the seasonal changes indoors and out
as I spring clean I rearrange some furniture, get rid of tired decor, and buy something new. So refreshing!
I love the new furniture arrangement! Brava!
I fix myself a pot of tea each day. December thru February, I use a burgundy and gold ceramic pot. March thru August, I use a couple of flowered ones. September thru November, I use a Hall teapot in cream and warm fall colors. I also change out the decor on my living room, dining room, and foyer tables - mainly antique glassware. Of course, the flowers in my vases reflect what I have growing in the garden- hellebores, daffodils, hydrangeas, etc. It's fun and a refreshing change!
Linda love all the changes, opens everything up. 😊❤ 🏴
Absolutely LOVE the new arrangement. I enjoy changing things, too as needs, moods, and seasons change
In a small house, my furniture really fits only one way. So, furniture stays the same; only the decor changes with the seasons and holidays.
Same with me. Just seasonal changes or if I get tired of seeing something I replace it for the time being.
I love your dining room table, really do love it. However, I just keep "seeing" a round table in this location with another "Mom" chair. I know you probably don't want to hear that but from the first day you revealed this, I just keep thinking about a round table in there. I absolutely love a banquette in any area of a home and really would like to incorporate one in mine but have no place for one. I just think a round table would be charming. Your thoughts?
I love BOTH styles of furniture placement; last year and now....can't go wrong with neither, its nice to rotate. I can see why the change...beautiful windows to view the sunshine or rain in your lovely garden...got to to have comfy seating in the winter to stare and dream into the gardens or while working on the computer on the banquet table! Also noticed your blue plates in kitchen rack and stunning bowl at the mixer. Love the blue books on the mantel....we are kindred spirits in so many ways!
Linda the room makes much more sense now and flows beautifully. Way to go
Boy have you embraced the blue aesthetic in your home. I love blue and white , and have blue as an anchor is most rooms of my home. Only my bedroom has creams with touches of oxblood red. I am turning 74 this year and have eaten 2 eggs every morning for 50 years. I do love eggs with a sprinkle of fresh parmesan or slices of avocado. And toasted sourdough with avocado is one of my favorite lunches. Or sourdough toast with egg salad and dill. I wanted to try the Marukuna honey , but it was not in my budget when I found it in my grocery store. But it sure looks yummy. BTW... how do you keep your collars popped... mine always fall down.
In case Linda doesn’t get back to you I have used a bit of spray starch. I eat the same things yummy.
I love the blue and have slowly been changing to blue myself. I also will be turning 74!
@@lindamontesdeoca4263 how sweet of you to reply! Thanks for the tip!
Thank You, Thank You for sharing your skin care routine!! Your complexion always has a beautiful glow. I love the changes. If I had your view I would want to look out also. You are just a JOY to watch🥰I am glad to see outfit of the day is back.
You asked about seasonal interior decorating. I have 4 Rubbermaid tubs for each season for a total of 16 in my basement. My home is just under 900 square feet and the tubs’ contents are distributed throughout entire house. Winter theme is snowmen and silver branches, spring is rabbits and blooms, summer is beach and vintage sand pails, fall is pumpkins and leaves and Christmas is reindeer and holly. I have lived in same tiny cottage since 1975 and always with big dogs.
What fun to change things around. Once I put something in a place I never move it. I need to change things up.
I just want you to know how much I love watching your channel. I’m a woman in my 30s and newer to gardening. I live in Boise, Idaho. Your aesthetic is to die for! I was not around much when you were at your old house and I love watching you create at this new house. It feels like you are one of us just starting out and you are showing us how to do it the right way. I so appreciate you.
Wow……what a Beautiful compliment, and so well deserved!
Really like the changes you made. No, I don’t change things around. Wish I would. Once I FINALLY get things the way I like, it stays!!!
Yay Saturday with Linda
Oh yea. I love love to change anything in our home. Either to seasonally change, or to improve visually an area. Change of sunrise, and sunset dictates change. Weather dictates change. My husband always says, " thank heavens I'm not blind, I would be in big trouble". Change is good. 😁
Love all of your blue and white pieces. They add such classic style to your lovely cottage. 🏡
I like the couch placement! I don’t change very often. My coffee table and an end table are so heavy and we can’t move them.
So excited with spring! Thanks Linda
Yes, Linda I love the changes in your parlor and I change things with the seasons. It is so uplifting to see new throw pillows and faux flower arrangements. Loved this video!
Love, love, love your videos! I could watch your videos all day!
Hi, Linda. Thank you for your video. ❤🎉.
My favorite look for your home…seeing your home with new appreciation, the collage of pictures are just amazing. ❤ Enjoyed the show! 💯
Have you considered a round dining table? I wonder if it might give you all of the options you desire…
I love serums, too, and fortunately have been able to get some at Dollar Tree here in Southern California. Lately they've carried some good "clean products" including some "dupes" of name-brand things.
Thank you for sharing your skin care routine & products. I didn’t realize that exfoliation was needed so often. I usually only do it once a week. I’m aging though, so will do it more often now. ❤❤❤
Love the direction of the sofa! You’ve introduced more blue and white items that really bring the room together. I’m a blue and white lover and have plates, urns, and bowls throughout my home. Plates on walls, urns and bowls filled with flowers, plants and candles. Your home is lovely.
Love the changes..
Iam known for moving my furniture..I help people do theirs.
I move my room, every 2 weeks..my furniture and accessories are so good, I love to see them displayed
In many ways. Worked 4 hrs today moving and changing around..had so much fun..did three rooms, will finish tomorrow...❤
I love the “tapestry” on the ottoman…
One my favorite breakfasts is whole grain toast with a fried egg, avocado and salsa. Occasionally, I add some smoked salmon. Moving the sofa really opened up the space.
I change display plates. And wreaths.
82! Here in RI the morning low, according to my weather app, will be 17 degrees with a high of 37 in the afternoon.
Yes, but living in Rhode Island!! I loved every minute of living in RI. It is such a beautiful state.
@@SeashellSeashell-du1sl I agree. Not moving to Florida anytime soon.
I can’t move the furniture but I like to change out pillows, throws, and accessories to match the season. I like blues and blue greens throughout my house. Received my garden journal today! Love your channel Linda. I’ve been watching for years.
I like to put my geraniums that I overwinter in the garage back in the kitchen on the windowsill. It makes me happy, and I can watch them flower, and bloom. Plus, they smell good too!
Yes I do change out my decorative pillows, my wall decor and bedding and bathroom colors. I'm wondering if the kitchen table will drive you nuts after a while jutting out like that. I'd probably bump into it often enough. Lol.
....BINGO! WOW, I have the VERY same breakfast most mornings at the same time... late morning. I also at times in the past had the low sugar. Now its fatigue several days a month when I don't take B12. The only, thing I don't do is your brand of Honey....will have to add that to my breakfast. I had forgotten it does up the immune sysem! Thanks for sharing!
Hi Linda!! Hi Stewart!! Still here watching every video sometimes multiple times💚💚…love how you live YOUR Garden life💚
I rearrange about every six months. Pieces move from different rooms. Breathes new life into my home.
I use only,Beekmans ( Goat-milk wipes) on my face . Goat milk has the same Ph as our skin,thus, never drying,or stripping your natural moisture.Well everything you are doing,is making your skin just glow,and youthful🥰
Love the minor changes to change a room's mood. I did notice the table was turned last week !
I wouldn't say I rearrange furniture seasonally, however I do like to change it up every six months to a year. Moves the flow of energy around providing interest. :)
Every time we have an early Easter (March) in Texas and certainly in OK as well inevitably the beautiful flowers and flowering trees bloom out and are hit with a cold snap!! Every time. I will be keeping all my bulbs in pots under the patio and all
other plants nestled under a thick
layer of mulch blanket .
I really like how the parlor and your dining table are now,it just looks right thanks for sharing
I appreciate all the skin care tips. I have ordered several of your recommendations.
Like the new furniture placement. Always nice to change things up.
Your new furniture arrangement is beautiful and flows so well. Great job!❤ I looked up the cost of your honey and OUCH $64 to $80 a jar! Too rich for me. Your outfit was beautiful and so cheerful. Happy spring! 🐣🐥
Oh my I didn't know that honey was so expensive!!!! It is out of my budget also! I thought the honey in the supermarket was high at $15 to $18. LOl
I switch up all of my faux flower vases.
Yes? Really like. To add Pastels in the Spring. Pillows comforters accents flowers that's what I do for my spring
I’m envious of your warm weather! Nothin’ but rain here in sunny California 😊
Rain here too on the south coast of Devon 😊 🏴
Love your changes. I am switching things up and bringing in spring!
I really like the changes to your Parlour. It does seem very open, and bigger. I can just imagine the sun streaming into that room!
On the subject of unseasonably warmer weather, I live in northern Canada beside Alaska, which is famous for the Klondike Gold Rush. February is typically our coldest month. It’s common for our temps to be around -46 Celsius which would be somewhere around -50 Fahrenheit. This entire month we’ve been steadily around -6 which for you would be around 21 Fahrenheit. I’ve lived here for ten years and never seen the weather like this. It’s glorious but I do wonder what the summer will be like up here in the land of the midnight sun.
Love all the subjects covered! Very helpful video! Thank you for the laughs too!❤
The table was the first thing I noticed. Where does hubs sit at mealtime? I like the setee this way too. I do like to change things around occassionally, but our dog recently went blind and I don't dare move furniture around. Everything looks beautiful.
Linda, I love your videos! They are always a breath of fresh air to me ❤
Always inspirational Miss Linda ! Thankyou so much for turning household drudgery into a fun art form .. and something I actually look forward to doing !
WOW! That's amazing what you did with kitchen table. Ingenious!
Fun and informative video! Thanks.
Spring is slow here in mid-Atlantic, its been wet, which I am very grateful for, especially after drought last summer/fall. Our rain last evening was mixed with snow, my husband said it was snowing snowballs. Big ole flakes! But daffodils are up, not blooming, and I see buds on tree, but no flowering shrubs, other than camellias. But I would not call it a mild winter, we had very low temperatures for a week or two, but mostly normal for the rest, which is totally fine with me, I have gotten a lot of work done in the yard this winter, building rock walls and such. But your temperatures are CRAZY. I pray that isn't a precursor of what is to come for you. FILL THOSE RAIN BARRELS! All have a great week.
What a great breath of fresh air today, I enjoyed watching this video after a long day in my CA Zone 9 garden. Cheers to Spring
Thankyou for such a great & packed video & was glad for all the skin tips.
Fresh flowers,brighter pillows on sofa and chairs,bringing out more of my moss balls,in bowls,on top of my Loving cups,bright cream Magnolia wreath on my front door ,hanging door basket,filled with tulips,hyacinths,daffodils,just a few of the Spring fresh look.
I love 💕 how you decorated your home , so beautiful
Hello Linda and team
Love your spring changes. Your skin products sure do work and thanks for the tips❤
Like the flow the new furniture layout provides.
Enjoy these segments with multiple subjects.
Love the new arrangement! Change is good! Thank you so much for sharing your beauty secrets and readings also. You have suc( great, useful advice. Love watching your channel.
I really enjoyed this segment. A perfect mix of topics of interest. You are so enjoyable.
Love the new furniture arrangement. Works really well.
I actually have that book The Laws of Power. I bought it when I was working and that was probably back in the mid-90s when I believe it was first published. It really does come in handy when you want to use it as a reference
Love your spring updates!
Love this furniture arrangement!
Like the parlor so much better.
I liked the room before BUT i like how you have it arranged now alot too. Really anything you do in your home & yard always looks beautiful. I love the idea of the smell of the hyacinth greeting your guest. I love how they smell & was shocked recently when talking to a friend of mine about spring bulbs, tulips etc & she said hyacinth were stinky (I WAS SHOCKED that anyone would think that). I love love them.
I love that towel rack in the bathroom..Please share a picture in full length 😊🙏
I LOVE, LOVE the new jacket - great choice, Leah.
That new jacket is beautiful. Reminds me a lot of the Appleseed quilted jackets. Enjoy.
I love the butterfly collection
Oh Linda so fun learning about your skin care routine. I have been looking into products and found them so cost prohibitive i just sighed and went to do something else...lol. I just ordered all of those products and am looking forward to beginning a routine I can feel good about. (The niacin zinc was not showing up so i typed in an alternative and chose another option). I am looking forward to Spring, but this is waaay too early. Here in Minnesota we have had so little snow all winter so far... a brown winter.
I understand your concern Linda for sure you will get another freeze
I’ve been missing you!!!!
Linda you are such a sweetheart. I’m going to find some soft fragrant green leaves to place in my collar as a way of channeling your absolute awesomeness.xox
Embrace change and enjoy!
This was a packed and fun video. What was that beautiful container below your lovely hydrangeas? I like all the changes you made. I also enjoyed the bloopers!!! The jacket is lovely.
Ha ha...I literally switched things up around here just today! I replaced all my dried hydrangeas with some faux green ivy stems in most of my vessels. I have lots of real plants too, but these were free and very realistic looking! I added in a lot of soft greens and blues around the house. 🙂
🌿🌷 ~House looks beautiful Linda! 😊
My skincare is similar to yours. I also use retin a at night. Also once a month have A skin tight laser treatment. I've started using castor oil on my hands and feet. I do change things up in my home. I have a love of blue and white.
I agree with you that protein is important as we age and aids in the protection of bones strength.
Love the new layout from the front door 😊Maria from New Zealand
Thanks for the great tips on serums. I’ve been using a vitamin C serum and have liked the results. I really like the great prices on the ones you shared.
I definitely like to switch things! Darker colors and cozy throws, for example, are good for chilly weather, but not so much Spring/Summer. And I'm very "picky" about flowers. I do use some faux ones, and make sure they're "correctly seasonal". Also I get full sun in front of my house where there are huge, tall windows in the living room I may want to avoid later in the day if we have extra-warm weather.
Hello from Puerto Rico
I am 78 and have very good skin, especially for my age. My dermatologist told me I did not need to exfoliate because the way I'm cleansing my face is enough. Your skin does get a lot thinner as you age. So, even if you do it gently, it may not be necessary at all. Linda is younger than me, so she can probably do more. Love those facial razors, though!💕
