I have the largest, multicolor real Persian rug in my living room. I love it! It is hand made and anchors the room with its size. I never would have thought I could afford one but found it on FB marketplace. A couple had purchased a home and it came with it. I drove as fast as I could to the next town to grab it for $200.00. They had no idea how expensive this rug is!

I have to take exception with the tiny lamp comments. I think you missed the point of where they are used. Certainly NOT the end tables,etc as your examples showed, but definitely on the kitchen counter, a bookshelf, a bathroom counter, etc. They are perfect for those applications.

I have to add my "two cents" supporting "tiny" lamps. I have one that I've had for years in one of my open shelves in my kitchen, and another in one of my built-in shelves in my den. I think those are the type of spaces "tiny" lamps were created for.

I really love lamps! I am a "lamp-a-holic" and I want every cool lamp I see. Lighting is very important in the home but I have come to understand that you must choose quality over quantity. Purchasing the most beautiful lamp you can afford that goes with the vibe you are trying to achieve is better than buying too many tiny lamps.

For those of us who don't have built in sconces on either side of our fireplace mantel and don't want to install the ones that you need to run a cords down the wall (and then try to hide the ugly cords, ugh), the tiny lamps you're making fun of from Target at $12 a piece are perfect for using as pairs on your mantel. The scale is perfect.

OK, here’s the best peeps story ever! A dear friend of ours was a chaplain in the army and was stationed in Baumholder Germany. This was the late 90s, he was being sent back-and-forth to Bosnia, and he was extremely overtired. The Red Cross or someone gave him several cases of peeps, and very few guys at the base wanted any. So in his wisdom, he thought he would just box them all up -I’m talking maybe 10 cases of peeps with probably 200 peeps packages in each case, anyway he sent them to my house-Thinking my eight children would love them… When we moved, about 12 years later, we finally tossed all those boxes in the dumpster. we could not give them all away… Nobody wanted them. Not even the food bank. 😂

I can’t fit the large lamp base for a small bedroom side table for guest space. These new homes have micro sized rooms. So I think it makes more sense to get a smaller lamp so they can still charge their phone & not knock over a massive lamp. Maybe small-medium. But anyway

❤ these suggestions. One thing I’ve stopped buying at Target are those metal soap pumps. I had some which were $12.99-14.99 but the pump would rust at the top and bottom and the pump was poor quality. It’s not a savings if it lasts only a few months. Another thing is disposables: paper towels, napkins, etc. I buy the real thing.

Great video - I agree with all and best reasoning is to put your money towards something that has more longevity especially when you’re starting out but I think really at any age. Get your fix on seasonal stuff with fresh flowers or food (eek peeps?!) instead of items that you then need to store away and bring out each year. This point really resonates with me as I have a very small cottage with zero storage. Thanks for the chuckle over morning ☕️

I found myself agreeing with your take on all of it. I especially hate things with words or sayings on them, although the "I'm sorry" doormat is intriguing. 😁 I do have words on one of my guest towels. I found this vintage white linen hand towel with white embroidery on it saying "there ain't nothing like a dame". Since its white on white it doesn't scream words at you. I had to have it because it reminds me of when my parents took me to see South Pacific. A golden memory. Thanks for the fun video. Btw, the way Jack looks at you melts my heart. Loving adoration. ❤

Instead of a tiny lamp I really want a candle warmer lamp! They’re small and serve a dual purpose, little bit of ambient lighting and make the house smell better! Haven’t found one that I love or they’re out of stock :/ but that’s on my wishlist 💫 Scale is everything, took a few try’s to find the right nightstand lamps, they were not large enough, finally at Marshall’s found the perfect ones and elevated the bedroom so much.
