Little macrame tip: if you are someone that loves to travel, consider buying macrame on your travels because it's the one kind of local art you really can pack in a suitcase. Often, when you go to markets in Marocco, India, Vietnam, etc,... you see all this amazing local craftmanship but you can't take any of it home. Macrame is a piece of local craftsmanship that you CAN take home because you can roll it up. A rattan chandelier from Bali is kinda difficult to get home but a beautiful macrame piece is totally packable.

My Daughter-in-Law does this and slowly their home is getting the bits and bobs that make a house a home. The results are stunning. She has a great eye and knows what she likes. Also, as a result, her home is not super trendy in any way, it just has an old world glamor about it. Needless to say, when we retire and move closer, she will be given a budget and the keys! :) Edited: spelling error

Not someone who is a weekend shopper with no sense of decorating style criticizing because they "LIKE" their stuff. Great, to the ones that "LIKE" your stuff, this is geared more towards people that want and like professional and intelligent decorating advice to apply to their life and home.

Great video! Regarding the fireplace, I've owned a ventless bio-ethanol (BE) and electric. I must say while BE provides better ambiance, it's extremely costly to maintain, doesn't generate enough heat to adequately warm a normal sized room and the flames die down quickly. I immediately regretted my purchase once I realized a $100+ case of e-nrg fuel lasted less than a week when burned only two hours every night. That's costlier than my electricity bill. BE only wins if money's no object.

What I'm hearing is "instead of color, try no color" and like, you do you obviously, but like... I'm over here in my boho-inspired room with my patterned rug and jewel tones and painted furniture... And because I know it's all stuff that I love, I'm happy with it. and I have no plans on changing unless it's to hang a tapestry (or into move into a better space). And remember all those light, clean colors will also show dirt.

that's not what Julie is saying. you are defensive about your likes and style which isn't what this is about. if you like all the color, boho jewelie stuff than that's your style and have adapted to it. it wouldn't work in my home because its a cluttered, busy, dizzy decor but if thats your like than so be it. Julie is giving great advise, ideas and education and its excellent. use common sense, if that kind of style is yours than ignore the great advice and do your own thing.

In her honor I used leftover tiles to make a large mosaic mural at the end of our drive 18 ft high of a rising full moon , water reeds, dragonflies with black slate sky and a dock which is a shelf upon which sits a buddha and bonsai tree....below is my hand painted fired tile memorial haiku to her...in front is a small garden of tropical plants.

So GLAD to hear you say you dont push trends! Most KZfaqrs are pushing sales of trend based items and that is a wasteful way to spend your money. I always have used colors in accessories...pillows etc. If nature is in then nature prints....if jewel tones then those...I decorate like I dress....the most money on things I will love for years in neutral colors....then the things less important and more changabble. Being an artist I make my own wall art and change it as time passes. For non painters framed fabric can be an inexpensive option. When I was a student I went to large museums and bought posters which I inexpensively framed of my favorite art in their collections.

The red flowers on the bedside tables looked superb to me and you probably can't get real ones like that that stay nice. Real plants, especially cut flowers inside end up looking sad and messy real quick.

I think our tastes change throughout the years - ebb and flow type of thing, and that's ok. For about 20 years, I was totally into neutrals. I got so bored with it. Now I have a deep plum velvet sofa and navy chairs, along with a 1960s glass and marble coffee table and faux bamboo side tables. I have 70s glass table lamps in blue and green. I love this look - for now - but it won't hurt my feelings if I change my mind again somewhere down the road. My favorite piece of personal artwork is a large, semi-abstract painting of my Bichon Frise that ran ahead to Rainbow Bridge a year ago.

I found it interesting to see your view, as a designer, of wall hanging art pieces. I'm a classical musician and as it happens, musicians and artists flock together and i have friends who'd give me a painting as a gift. I never bought a wall hanging because i needed to fill the space, on the absolute contrary, I needed to make space to hang these paintings that I would never, ever throw out. And when I do buy a wall hanging, I don't see them as decor, it either speaks to me or more oftenly I wanted to support the artist. By the way, i love the channel because of your wealth of knowledge and also because you seem to have a strong taste. I respect that a lot!

I just discovered your channel and I can’t say enough about how much I appreciate your aesthetic, your approach, and your generosity with your knowledge. I’m a former graphic designer, self taught with interior design, and I’ve already learned a lot and had many instincts confirmed-such as sourcing everywhere from thrift shops to the high end. A lot of people are just afraid of doing that. They don’t trust themselves at either extreme, and I think that’s part of how so many homes end up filled with a lot of safe, cookie cutter decor. Hopefully you’ll encourage them to open up their horizons. Thanks so much for your channel.

I'm not sold on marble. I grew up with a massive marble dining table and marble flooring. It's always cold and uncomfortable, and ALWAYS sticky no matter how often we wiped it and cleaned it. It's also very telling that after 10+ years of marble, my parents never bought marble anything ever again when we moved and decorated.

I had a real fireplace in my previous home. I would place staggered sizes of pillar candles either the battery ones or the ones that you lite. It made for a delightful ambiance . My biggest mistake was buying too small area rugs, I did buy solids. When buying drapes they must have a lining to have a uniform look from the street. I'm grateful for Goodwill when I need to drop of items that no longer serve a purpose. You always exceed my expectations. Peace health and blessings from Atlanta.

From my perspective, houses have always been female territory, so they used to arrange homes with certain emotions and sensibilities that have been lost in XX century and beyond. Having female designers and being able to see their work by a bigger audience makes evident how an analitical or aesthetic vision of the house is way different than female perspectives. Having aesthetics presents, females tend to have other things in mind as well, like usage and habitability. I love Julie's work precisely because her vision is very feminine and has this practical approach to her desgins that give me the feel of real spaces that have real people living (breathing, getting tired, cleaning, reunited, etc..) in them. Female visibility 'just because' in general is frozen and empty.

I paid for expensive custom made curtains, I have my art custom made by a young up and coming artist and I bought some from homegoods, etsy and other places, I have that beautiful brass/marble coffee table from CB2 and I've always leaned towards neutral furniture and rugs especially, most of my decor pieces are made from natural elements and I absolutely adore my space. But I think it will be rude of me to go into anyone else's place and dictate what they choose especially if it's what brings them joy. My point is, please don't join the band wagon of fake influencers on Social media that are snobbishly bullying their followers into doing things their way. Thats trendy in my opinion and all it does is diminish people's sense of self. I think the most lasting trend in home decor should be everyone doing what they want in their own spaces. With that being said I absolutely love you and will continue to support your channel as I think your up there on my list of top 10 designers on social media. Note I said "designer" not "influencer".

Thank you for watching Donna and leaving your kind, lovely message 🙏🏻☺️ If you’ve been a long time follower of the channel, you will know that I rarely post a “trend” video. I usually lean more towards design tips, but those are very subjective as well, and ALL videos are based on my experience 1000%. I have purchased everything on this list, for myself and my clients, and the one thing I know for sure: There are better options out there than what I’ve done in the past and I’m happy to share my findings with you 💕
