Jess and I work on decorating our basement after the remodel. I organize and catalogue all of my books, and then Jess and I go shopping for decor at T.J. Maxx & Target for our shelves.
NOTE - this vlog was originally uploaded a few hours ago and it was having issues with the sound not syncing up with with the video. It should be corrected now and good to go!

Decor idea that worked for me: Instead of buying generic decor at Home Goods or Hobby Lobby, buy one nice piece of decor when you visit a new place on vacation. You tend to stay in love with your decor pieces when there’s a memory behind it. Buying a pretty frame or a small lamp or a painting will be more appealing than throw-away decor from Target.

I just decorate with the things I genuinely love. And then I’m always happy with how it looks. I hate stuff just for the sake of stuff. It’s gotta be functional, or something I love, or I don’t want it. Leave it empty for now - and as you collect stuff you actually love, use those things to decorate. Kids drawings, little knick knacks, all that stuff. ♥️

The basement is absolutely gorgeous!! Brady is a creative genius & an insanely talented carpenter! I don't know how he had the foresight to design it the way he did [I know it's based off his own basement], but I can not get over how incredibly beautiful it is. Also, your personal selections like the carpet, the couch, etc. are all perfection. I love everything you all have done. I know a lot of time, money, energy, blood, sweat & tears has gone into that project, but it was well worth the investment in every sense. The result is absolutely stunning!! I'm so happy for y'all.🎉

@maritzag694 Жыл бұрын

The hard part about the internet is that it’s taught us that decor for decor’s sake is the way to go. The decor doesn’t mean anything, right? I love that at the top you said that you guys were trying to start to be more intentional about what you have and what you display, so I’ll drop this nugget here: although this looks very nice, y’all are TRAVELERS! Start looking at your “souvenirs” as decor items. Buy art, vases, old books in interesting places and incorporate your memories in these same kind of items. ❤

@sherrys8321 Жыл бұрын

Jessica did a great job. The globe thing that Tyler showed in beginning should be placed on a higher shelf. I feel like it should be a stand alone decor. It’s really cool!

I am LOVING this Braun book content!! I have been watching Jessica's channel since before y'all were engaged and I feel like we are quietly (well, mostly me) growing up together. I have slowly fallen more in love with reading over the years and I always love the book portion each year in vlogmas so I love seeing it here in the vlogs too! Also, I love organization so the whole bookshelf organization, perfection. I would watch a video of just the books. AND that you're watching Bob's Burgers while cataloging lol I feel like we would be friends in real life. Excited to see the final basement video, congrats! Brady is so talented!

@darlamaher4879 Жыл бұрын

I can't believe a kid needs to always be entertained just riding from home to a department store. That and this constant giving their kids snacks. Every new mom youtuber seems to do this. My daughter was born before there were "hot spots" and just sat in her car seat without food and entertainment and I never had an issue. And yes, she would have tantrums at times, but i never gave in....Kids have to be taught that sometimes life sucks and you don't always get your way.

One decorating tip I learned-put the taller item on the left as the eye naturally moves left to right and it flows better-the globe on bottom right shelf I think would look best reversed with the other smaller object. But I LOVE your family room and your style! And of course-LOVE all your videos!😊😊😊
