Valentina would you consider doing a segment on ceiling fans or fans with lights and what type would look ok with different room styles. We live in the desert where air conditioning with fans are so important but soooo ugly.
Thanks for another great video.
I've worked on my home for 40 years. It is PERFECT. Almost.
I know how you feel, "Almost" is the word that I love to fix!
So true! Almost!
So there’s hope for the rest of us? Cool! ❤
❤😂😂 love it. I feel kinda similar 😎 Are you born under a Virgo Sign? 😉😉
I’ve been making small changes since this year started! New knobs on our dresser, new couch pillows, new throws, candles, vases (thank you H&M!), cleaning my windows, washing down my kitchen cabinets, tidying up my master bedroom, etc. Lot’s more to do (mostly outside, but it will get done!!!!) Loved these tips Valentina!
I would love to see content around kitchen styling...especially around kitchen mats. I want comfort (cushioned mats) but style is important
Living minimalist is so peaceful for me. But I do enjoy what others choose for their personal decor. Everyone should feel secure their space (home)
I think you're on to something about how we are an "instant gratification" generation. And we are paying for it. It's a very good reminder that creating a home is a process, and I believe rooms should look collected, heirlooms, antiques, vintage fabrics and furniture and personal objects included. I also agree that small, simple "glow-ups" like updating some aspects of the home can have a huge impact. I have to disagree with you over the faux florals and greens. IMO, which of course is not anything but my opinion, they cheapen the space and are absolutely not more sustainable- full of "forever" chemicals which will eventually fill up the landfills. So much more elevating to clip some things from your yard or grow perennials that you can use in your home over all the seasons! Just my thoughts.
Really good reminder - I love HGTV but it definitely “plays” with your mind and gives me a different set of expectations! Way to bring us back to reality Valentina! Thanks!
I’ve made my own honey do list for around the house. Since starting my DIY reno in June last year, I do as much as I can with things I have around the house (which has been a lot) and choose to spend a little money on paint and tools. It’s been worth every cent. Decluttering is so powerful and has restored my soul. It may not be perfect but I’m doing what I can when I can and being kind to myself.
In ikea my mom said “ugh! I hate faux plants!” They were actually the real plant section under artificial lighting and she was flabbergasted.
I think it’s silly we are so high brow about faux greenery when they are becoming so good and of course so practical and we can’t always even easily tell real vs fake
Have fun with faux!
Im allergic and HAD to lower my eyebrows 😂 and go for faux plants. And Im soo happy with them! And they are becoming better every season....😊
Thank you for the reminders of not doing the entire house. The basics such as paint really helps.
I love Valentina, but these type of videos are all over CZcams! I’d love to see more client and completed projects- That is what actually inspire me, personally!
I 100% agree with you !
Fun to look back and see how your decor has evolved over the years. ❤
Clean8ng the windows makes a huge impact.
Thank you for addressing the timelines and realities that delay making the home of our dreams. Always takes longer than expected and to pay for it.
Hei igjen Valentina! In Norway and The Nederlands the trend now is to paint everything ...ceiling walls trim doors...everything in the same colour 😮. I must say I almost become sick to my stomach. I feel like I get choked in a powder box. I go with the classic rule; ceiling, trims and doors in white(ish) and tones on walls. I believe that "lifts" my eyes and the room feels spacious. But I have done the same "crazy" as yu...I painted the fireplace in stoneBrown and its stunning 😊
Thank you for always inspiring tips. Regards to Jack! ❤
You read my mind. I want to do one whole entire room at a time. I am so impatient. Thank you for stating we don't. Cause my bank account cannot afford it!
Hi! I just painted my office Cracked Pepper and turned it into a den instead that’s moody and plush. I love it, my partner loves it, everyone loves it. I bought new furniture, but really hunted for good sales and it took me several months It’s my favorite room.
We are on a fixed budget so we are saving for new carpet for the downstairs.
In an earlier video, you said it took 7 years to really get your house the way you wanted it….i thought okay she’s a designer, I’m not. It will take longer! 😊 that helped me chill a bit
I just want to thank you Thank you for just being you Seriously your personality your honesty Your truly just a one of a kind Greatly appreciate you ❤
Always lovely to watch your videos Valentina.❤
Omg, I literally just had my windows washed today, repainted our bedroom last weekend, and installed the identical light fixture there a few weeks ago!!! I was inspired by your xmas bedroom video.
I love Navy on the walls in the sitting room.
Hi there, I love all of your videos you are so upbeat and inspiring❤. I love your updated door handles where can I get them? Thank you for setting the tone for all of us to have our best lives😊
Free- but look at all these awesome huge vases that aren't free.😊
I'll and other flea market and antique shops
I’ve been painting one room, one wall at a time. Then I do the ceiling last, when all is out of the way. You shouldn’t try and do it all at once, especially when you have stuff in there. You have to put it somewhere when you are painting. If you clear out the whole room, it gets… complicated and intimidating. If you just start small, you build momentum as you go. Before you know it, it’s all done!
Also, don’t get caught up in _OVER_ prepping. It’s a great way to stall when you’re simply too chicken to _actually_ get it done!
I think for a lot of us these days that may be on a fixed income can save a little at a time if we have our eye on something like a light fixture that may be a little more expensive. Estate sales can have some great finds. Like you said don't think about doing everything at once, Rome wasn't built in a day. It's fun to make plans and have dreams, keep inspiring us with your decor knowledge. thanks Valentina your a jewel!
💫I soooo love watching Your Channel, enjoy Your Taste and Stories…. *would You show us how You organize and store Your pillow cases and your decor stuff?* sending lots of Love from Switzerland 🌹🙏🏻💫
Thank you so much, so encouraging. You and Jack are just fabulous
I’d love to have a power washing window cleaning business. I’m a retired cleaning lady now nanny but I love to make homes sparkle! I’m constantly decluttering. But then I go to goodwill and buy more crystal and cut grass. Hubby had to move out, “It’s all for the cause Dear!” Good stuff!!!!
I so enjoy your channels! Thanks for the great ideas, I've been using your inspo to "shop" my house and shift things around to keep it fresh.
Thanks for the idea of olive branches. I’ve been looking for authentic looking ones and the ones you showed look perfect!
Great reminder! I get deflated if it’s not a BIG project item change.. and then I put it off until I can do something big while being frustrated that it’s still looks the same! Insanity! Appreciate the nudge of eating the elephant one bite at a time!
The plants (blooms) in the round vase are Viburnum Snowball bush.
Thanks for the great advice
Loved this video! Thank you! 😍😁🥰
It is so much fun to slowly upgrade your home, waiting for the perfect pieces is so exciting when you find it!
Love you Valentina 🌷
Excellent V!!!
I just did my windows cleaned today and noticed I have a pool?! 😂😂
Great video ❤
Great video, I enjoyed it.
Could you do a video all about bed sheet/duvet/blanket color combinations? Struggling to figure out if I want to do black and white or something with more beige in it. It seems like everything on Pinterest is very white and beige but I am tired of my boring white sheets.
It’s all fun !
I bought some exact flowers from Home Goods. They were $25! I love afloral too but I can't afford them.
I love you…but you need to come back down to earth with these prices. $18 for ONE hydrangea stem! $90 for a tiny vase? Most people don’t have that kind of cash.
I went to Home Goods and bought them for $25
Even if you have the $ what a waste of money. I’d rather donate money to organizations or worthy causes. Nothing in life is permanent!
This channel seems to be becoming much more down to earth. I will now start watching it again!
I love this video! 🙏
Glad you enjoyed it!
I admired by your energy.good Luck.selam from İstanbul..
Love the light suggestion.... please use caution and buy UL or EL approved only🔥
Would you share the ceiling height in your bedroom?
PS. And I bought the black quilt set for the guest bedroom. Hoping it works in the room 🤞
I love watching. You are really talented and I love your ideas! Do you have a master bedroom light idea that will not break the bank and if the ceiling is not high? Much appreciated.
Ceiling medallions!
It’s a great place to start.
Great video V, little by little is how I’ve been able to transform my home into the way I want it after our renovations and I THOUGHT that I wanted the HAMPTONS STYLE, But, after watching your videos I realised That I Didn’t Want That At All, so I’ve been going from room to room just changing out the decor in each room, I already had the canvas of the paint on the walls, it was just How I Was Styling Our Home and it Feels So Liberating to do it this way, I have two beautiful Boucle chairs in my tv room with two beautiful black cushions sitting on them and I have Boucle cushions on our bed, makes all the difference just the little things. Thanks To You for sharing your creativity and inspiration and experience here on your channel. 🖤🖤🤍🤍
V. I need guidance on “closed storage.” You use RH but I live in an apartment so need more flexibility in sizes. When does it sit on the floor to anchor a space? When should it be on legs? Does it have to match other furniture legs? Huge investment pieces if I buy RH. I LOVE your aesthetics and design. TY.
Legs are good for lightness, but too many legs, especially long ones all over the place, can start to look busy. It’s good to have an even mix. Short legs are a good go-to if you’re just not sure.
Kristen McGowen has tips on legs in, 10 COMMON INTERIOR DESIGN MISTAKES + HOW TO FIX THEM from about a month ago.
I still would like the cake recipe from last week's living channel segment
could you give me the name of the colour on your bedroom walls. You are my inspiration Tks
What temperature lighting should we use?!
I like to mix warm and cool tones in my home but lean to warm warm woods
2700 vs 3000?
Unfortunately, Alfloral doesn't ship to Europe 😥
Where did you purchase the door hardware from?
nibbling is my way hahaha
I also want to say
People would clean more IF they loved their space. You need to design your space around what YOU genuinely love, instead of what others love.
The bedroom paint colors in the ikea ceiling lamp example I need to know the names please anyone know them ?
❤
11:16 looks like you changed the chairs in your Moms dining room? Did she keep those because that’s what made the difference.
Where did you get those balls in front of your fireplace from
❤❤❤
Hello Valentina,
I love your couch. Could you share the Brand or Store name pls?
It’s from article. ❤
@@myeyes9574 Thank you
Love your videos but not enjoying the cartoons! Makes your videos cheap.... Which there not they are always amazing ❤
When a content provider uses cartoons it makes it hard to concentrate on what she’s saying because I have to read the cartoon. Wish they wouldn’t use these.
😂Yessss! 😊😊😊😊😊❤❤❤
Thank you!
I do feel rushed. Probably because we’re in our 5th new build home (plus multi homes we remodeled) and now I’m aged & tired. How much time is left? AND this last so called custom builder left us with a lot of re-work.🤦🏼♀️
Well, I just bought 2 Baldwin Brass lever door knobs and locks on Amazon. Cost me $600.00 dollars. I wanted to change all of my handles, but it was going to be too costly, and I already had all them everywhere else. They are the shiny brass, but what are you gonna do? Too much money to change.😮
At 4:47 in your video the 2 glass jar on the left holding the nuts and pretzel are those the Ikea 365+ 3.3L jars, if not where did you get those? Thanks
Beware of Craigslist or fb marketplace...please people be careful. Bed bugs are almost to impossible to detect on sofa or upholstered chairs. My poor daughter lived in in apartment and they went thru the ductwork. They had so much thrown out because they went thru every room. It's so hard and so expensive to get rid of. I would rather save for 10 years or use couch slip covers. Please think twice. Especially if the sofa is sitting in their garage.
What do you do when your Mom passes and you inherit her phone with 20000 photos. I can't get myself to give it away after 2 years. It is clutter in my kitchen drawer. Love you show.
I am guessing you are not selling real estate 🏡
the key to making pillows on the sofa look lux you buy an insert that is bigger than the pillow cover OR you use 2 inserts in one pillow cover. gives them a super plump pillow! it was what you do in showrooms (i used to work in one) the showrooms also do that with duvet inserts , using 2 in a duvet cover to make it all look like a fluffy cloud. Tricks of the trade 🙂
Busts me up when HGTV mentions how much flooring is for the show, not even in the same ballpark of reality.
Valentina: what if your husband refuse to let go of an ugly sofa and other antiquated horrible items that you dislike?? that's my case
I understand. The ugly sofa is the worst!
Hi, I love your channel, but didn’t you tell us faux flowers was a NO!!
I realize the company you are promoting is probably one of the best out there but all of a sudden it seems like you’ve fallen in love with Faux flowers. If I am correct, you would please recommend a 8ft or taller faux tree that you absolutely love, I would appreciate it.
I’ve been following Valentina since 2020 and she used to advice against faux flowers and express how it was worth it to put effort in live plants but now she gets paid to promote plastic plants that harm the environment lol her style went from fresh Parisian inspired to showy American. Still enjoy her videos though and her style is inspirational! She’s just a business person.
She said they should look real and not plastic-y
