Nothing complements nice furniture like a sleeping cat 😂

I totally agree with you, all of these reasons are why I never buy new furniture. My home is 90% free or thrifted, my style is whatever makes me happy. I don’t go for a generic ikea and hobby lobby house, and for god sakes no neutral everything, I need color in my life.

my dad told me pretty much the same things as you did! he is of the old school, and was an upholsterer back when i was a child. I'm looking for an older couch because the new stuff they are making is JUNK.

The furniture in general is amazing. My favorite is the little $25 chair in the bedroom. That’s unbelievable but that’s the price you paid for that. The plates on that chair and the fabric being wind is incredible workmanship I just love it. I also love that little settee with the horse hair. It’s a shame that you had to cover up the white sofa. Those crazy cats will do whatever they need to do to sharpen claws.

So glad I found you

Happy to see a video today really love your channel

Great video , you have good upholsering skills !!! 😊👍👍

You are simply the best on KZfaq--------------yes. Great content, down to earth approach and such clear delivery. You would be a first- class teacher. Love your channel

we are of like minds,and probably like experience in decorating, etc. I wish more people would hear this message..I get rave reviews of my house decor and have to say nothing here is 'new'...all from consigment, thrift, antiques stores....cultivating good taste takes time and good guidance (which I got from my mother who started her own antiques business when I was in Jr High)

I was so interested by your evaluation of quality. Imagine my surprise when you introduced the floral chair as I have a pair! The fabric is different, one swivels, the other swivels and rocks. I love them. They were a custom order from Ethan Allen. I have subscribed to your channel and look forward to learning more. Thank you.

I love my comfy old sofa -- it's a hand-me-down down sofa from past roommates who refused to take it with them when moving out. However, I want a sofa bed for my next home. Hopefully I can find a vintage one for the construction, but if not, I'd go with a custom one.

My husband wanted me to look at Rooms to Go for a sofa. The sales rep said the furniture life expectancy was five years. Could you tell us the name of the style of your brass lamp behind you? I love it!! Thank you for sharing your expertise, wisdom, and your beautiful home. Your floral chair - wow! I love floral and it is so rare to find today. Your grandmothers sofa is stunning. The wood carving is amazing. Love the kitty too.

Thought that you had a background in design, thanks again for sharing your knowledge in such a personal way....shows a lot of strength, and is very inspiring too, in my opinion.

Please do a video when you update the chair please.

😂😂😂So true IKEA furniture can survive ONE move across a room….two? You’re pushing..,three? 😢

If the rest of the fabric on the french chair is in good shape, and you like it, you could use the pillow fabric to redo the arms and have a complimentary fabric pillow made.
