@rebeccarobeson1 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks April. You aspire to a challenging task. Truth is, it's not easy to pull off a timeless home. I think the key is to know your style and stray from trends... because they ALWAYS pass. I have to say, with 30 years of projects under my belt, I recognize and appreciate looking back and feeling good about my design choices when I think to myself... wow, that still looks good today! Sometimes I achieve that... and sometimes I don't. Good luck with your home. Stay true to the Design Principals I always try to convey to you. If you are not a member of The Design Sessions, might I recommend you consider joining? There should be a link in the description box below this video. THAT'S WHERE THE REALLY GOOD STUFF IS! :-) RR

@@rebeccarobeson1 I think there’s a difference between a trend and a style. In that executive’s home, I noted that there’s medium color wood (avoiding the extremes of the light & dark wood trend pendulum) - an a “nod” to what was contemporary at that time, which was wrought iron and Italianate style. I see the influence of a trend - used with restraint - but even now that the trend has passed, it still feels comfortable rather than outdated. It can be very difficult to decorate in moderation when all you see in the stores is what’s trendy!!!

I utilize the empty space under the stairs with drawers for storing Christmas Decorations. My fine-finishing carpenter disguised the fronts with panels. You'd never know it was there. I saw this idea years ago in some magazine. He will do something different with the other stairs, maybe a "panic room". ha ha. You, my dear, are an inspiration. I hope you are happy in Tulsa.

@EmorettaRobinson 2 жыл бұрын

The under the stairs dog crate plus the behind the panel luggage storage that had the objects earthquake proof stuck on it are both ingenious. Also one of the things I like about Rebecca is her clever use of lighting. My favorite was probably the fireplace panel that had become a stairway to heaven. The after pictures of that space (without the red furniture) is amazing. But I also like the very long sectional. Mostly because it looked comfortable and custom.

@Tracy Atkins - I think it’s plastic surgery. I just asked the question above about this. Something is different about the way her mouth moves, her expressions and everything seem changed. The texture of her face versus her neck and chest doesn’t match up. I’m just wondering if anyone knows if it’s true and she’s had work done or not? There’s no shame in it, a lot of people do it… I just wondered if that’s why she isn’t looking as natural as she used to. Do you know?

In the home we built over 10 years ago, the stairs, that go down to my husband's man cave, go down 6 stairs to a landing and then go down 10 more. Since our granddaughters were young, I decided to put a play area in there for them, complete with table and chairs. All the baby dolls, crafts and coloring stuff were tucked out of sight. If they brought anything out, they knew where to put it back. We now have 2 more younger grand children who love playing in there.

So needed to hear you talk/show our mistakes. Oh so needed! Knowing your style and updating for the time of your life is needed to keep your home fresh. Cleaning your home especially when there are multiple animals in the home. I refrain to visit friends because of the dander/hair and smell. That might be a topic to discuss too! If you dare. But, anyway I loved the last transformed room with the 20f panel ceiling omg! Amazing, beautiful and luxurious!!!! Also, the hidden spaces thinking outside the box was so smart ! I love your style and Im glad I found you. Can’t wait to see the next mistake video you do. Stay safe & heathy beautiful talented lady . Linda from Pensacola , Fl

We teach you the principals, of design... walk you through how to discover your own personal style and where to go from there! We have a free App you can download to your phone and although the monthly cost is $9.99 the first week is free :-) If you don't find it helpful (which I highly doubt) you can cancel your membership. Ho harm, no foul :-) shop.kinwoven.com/pages/design-sessions give it a try Elizabeth... I think you're gonna LOVE IT! :-) RR
