      Omgosh! I actually just looked up your videos because I'm trying to figure out how high to put my curtain rods..I thought you'd said 6inches in previous videos but can't remember..if you see this comment please let me know *=)*

    I'm a landscape artist. Putting a mat around art is like adding lipstick after you finish your makeup. It pulls everything together.

    • @KristenMcGowan

      👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

    • @fionaschiffl8065
      @fionaschiffl8065 Před rokem +10

      Totally. I’m putting up framed art for the first time and loving it. The mat says this art is important to me and I want you to enjoy it in the best way possible. My ex didn’t want anything on the walls. I can’t get enough of it, it makes me so happy and I’ve Photoshopped a lot of old architecture and landscape pics from the family’s travels. I love how the mat protects the art from sticking to the glass.

    • @sdeaglefeather
      @sdeaglefeather Před rokem +5

      @Anna North that sounds nice..lipstick pulling everything together.

    • @barbaraeaton9266
      @barbaraeaton9266 Před rokem +1

      How would you put a frame and mat on a canvas. They are so deep (1"-1 1/2") and I can't figure out how to do this affordable. Thanks for any advice you can give me.

    • @annanorth7997
      @annanorth7997 Před rokem

      @Barbara Eaton I paint on thin canvas boards, so mats fit fine in regular photo frames. I believe you can Google "frames for canvas paintings" to find thicker frames and mats.

  • @2cmrinhfx
    @2cmrinhfx Před rokem +16

    I love the fact that you use Walmart, Ikea, and also do a lot of thrifting. That is real life. Sometimes designers on TV use all high end , good grief who has that kind of money these days?! I have used many of your ideas and love them, I find they make a house a HOME.

  • @juberoma2429

    My favorite tip was using runners in the kitchen. It really expands my area rug options. Yay!

    It takes talent to do what you do! I’ve been binging your videos for some inspiration (you have wonderful ideas!). My husband and I just bought a new home and I’m so overwhelmed with where to even start! So far, painting is completed, wish me luck with the rest!

  • @SoIconicLondon
    @SoIconicLondon Před 7 měsíci +4

    Thank you for these great tips. One more really important idea is to layer lighting and use appropriate bulbs. Way too often people are using harsh blue light LEDs in living rooms when you need to feel cosy. Warm white bulbs are your friend people!

    Hi, I love all the ideas, ai actually used some already and didn't even realize what I was doing. Lol but I added the rug in the kitchen when we renovated it. I have leather furniture and added really pretty velvet and faux fur pillows. My kitchen light over the island space is rectangle like the island. The curtain technique I learned a while ago so I raised all of them to the ceiling and added an under layer. And my mom always had beautiful plants and flowers in our home growing up and she taught me how to take care of them so I just followed her footsteps on that. Thx I'll keep watching. I told my friend I remember when she first started just re decorating her parents house and her sister's house..keep up the good work!

    Hey Kristen! Love the tips especially the one on having two window treatments together. I have curtains in the living room but most of the time my husband likes to keep them shut because of privacy reason lol. Where as I loved to keep them open so I need either shutter blinds or Roman shades. My heart keeps going back to the plantation shutter blinds and was wondering what’s your take on them with curtains? Should I get Roman shades instead? Do shutter blinds look dated? Would love to hear your feedback 🫶🏼

    I've been watching your design for years. Love the apartment makeover. Recently bought a new house with plantation shutters and struggling to determine curtains or no curtains because I love when they're completely open, but the design of where thr windows are doesnt allow for all of them to be open at the same time. maybe some how to pick curtains tips and tricks besides high and wide would be something you make a video about.

  • @CathyS_Bx
