As a former interior designer, I will say, the rug is PERFECT! Don't worry about the dark couch against a light rug. That adds interest. Your home is lovely.
I love the rug, over the years I have learned that it takes awhile to get used to new items in my home btw I really am happy to see Gods Word involved in your everyday lessons for the children ❤
I’m an Interior Decorator and want you to know that rug is perfect and so warm and inviting! I loved seeing a day in your life with your sweet family. You and Mike are definitely doing an amazing job raising your boys. Have a blessed weekend ❤
I am always surprised that most people will not eat leftovers. My husband and I have always use leftovers for lunch the next day or we will do a fridge clean out(which we call Must Go Day). It is sad to see the reports of food waste. Thank you for showing your viewers that your family also have the mindset of zero waste of food. It is definitely a money saver. Thank you so much for your UA-cam videos. They are so informative and helpful ❤️
I think leftover taste better the next day 😂 my husband loves, it and I think the rug is beautiful but if you are having doubts about it, you should change it and I love when you get scriptures in your channel. Thank you for doing that.have a Blessed Day 😊
I think some people have an irrational fear of food poisoning. I think it’s fine not to want to eat leftovers, but if so you have to make sure you don’t have any. My grocery store has open produce, so you can buy one carrot, etc. Personally my whole strategy is to have leftovers.
There is such a sweet, sweet spirit about you, Andrea. I'm retired in SC, but I just love watching you do anything! Your boys are blessed to have Godly parents. Thanks for sharing your life and being such a good example for young parents looking to you for guidance! Be blessed!
I think the rug is beautiful. It adds a nice textual layer and proper scale of pattern to your solid colored furniture pieces. It makes your living room look very cozy and inviting.
I also want to put my two cents in about the rug. I think you should keep it. You are the most relaxed and organized person that I know of. I totally believe in homeschooling. Thank you for bringing us into your home. Blessings to all of you.❤❤❤
I love the new rug. You have a busy life with 4 boys and being a planner helps to function in a sane manner. I have always been a planner and at 72 I live with very little stress because of that trait. Thinking ahead is never a bad thing. You go girl!! Do what works for you and that beautiful family of yours.😊
Hello Mike and Andrea, The rug is great with your decor and in fact brightens your living room. God has blessed you with much. Don't allow color or pattern to distract you or diminish contentment. What I enjoy most is seeing how your family is succeeding in living holy and fruitful lives, achieving hard work within a family, and sharing it with subscribers. May God continue to bless the Francavelli family richly.
Andrea, you are such a good mother, wife and homemaker…always sending you best wishes and appreciation for all you do! Sharing your life on your UA-cam channel is so lovely! Thank you! ❤
What a beautiful rug Andrea! It’s perfect. A great video today. Love the soup you made and the hot chocolate you poured into those sweet cups! Be blessed and looking forward to your next video ❤
I think that the pattern on the rug grounds the space. I think from following you that the problem is the contrast between the pattern on the rug. You prefer calmness. The couch stands out more now with the new rug. The pattern on the rug is very nice.
I love the rug, and as a quilter, it definitely has that look and feel. Watching your family makes everyone wish they grew up in a home like this. Your boys will have a very high bar for anyone in their future. I want some soup!
I love seeing this glimpse of your daily life with cooking, homeschool, and decor. You are highly organized and manage this well! The new rug looks fantastic on camera and seems to coordinate well with the dining room rug. Your children know the Lord and you and your husband have been excellent role models. I love how you clean as you go. I do this as well and it makes a huge difference. I look forward to each video!
I like the rug. I think the couch is just fine. lol you make it look easy and you know I love your decor. Still can’t convince hubby to agree to painting trim.lol Andrea,I always love your videos.
You speak my language. Leftovers are always eaten in our home. Sometimes I freeze them for a later date. Bottom line is very little goes to waste. Love the rug!
Now that we are almost empty nesters (17 year old daughter still at home out of our 6 kids) I sure enjoy seeing your family. I am enjoying my independence and more quiet home but can remember those days with joy. I think the rug looks so good!
It really looks beautiful! I loved watching your son play the piano. He's very good! Im glad to see you all using leftovers. We always have and even growing up at home we did. We all waste to much! Thank you for sharing! God Bless you and your family!
Your rug is beautiful! I love the scripture reading and that you do it as a family. I play piano too. Your son does a great job! I loved practicing and have played in school, church, etc. I need to get back on it.
That rug just brought your room to life.love it. I grew up eating leftovers.we did not waste food or take it for granted. Now I raised my f a milk the same way.
What a beautiful family!!! I’ve absolutely been drawn to you for a long time. You’re beautiful home and kindness stand out from other videos. I’m so happy to see that you guys are instructing your boys in the word of God. Absolutely amazing!!! I pray for blessings over your home and your children. May the Lord continue to guide and keep shining your light. God bless you! ❤😊
Love the rug! Sometimes it has to grow on you but the colors are beautiful. Leftovers are great we don't like to waste food especially with how the prices are and if we can get another meal its a win!
I love your home. You can tell it is full of love, coziness, and most importantly, God! Seeing your boys sitting quietly and reading is a beautiful sight. You and your husband appear to be a great team and a great representation of Christ. ❤ Thank you for sharing your life with us. BTW- I love the new rug, and I think it will look beautiful in the summer as well!!
I really love your rug. I like it better than the other one. I also like watching your day in a life videos. I love your kitchen so Homie cozy I hope you and your family have a very wonderful weekend. Can’t wait for the next video. God bless you and your family.❤❤❤❤❤
2:23 I make Protein smoothies. In winter I use this recipe: Protein powder, collagen powder, creatine powder, water, chia seed, skyr, cauliflower rice(instead of banana which is high glycemic), frozen cherries, pinch of cinnamon and salt. I love it
Love the rug. Looks really nice. The chicken soup looked so delicious. I throughly enjoyed watching this video. God bless you and your beautiful family.
A newer subscriber, and I love your channel. It is fantastic to show viewers how to praise the Lord and how to raise children knowing God. Great content on cooking, too.
Is it hard not to have any alone time? I always wonder about that, with home schoolers, I absolutely love having time alone, and can get so much more done when I'm alone. Your home is so cozy, andb the rug looks amazing.
When decorating a room, always start with the core pieces. If you're going to replace the sofa do that first. Buy a timeless sofa that works for your family. Then decide if you need a new rug. Both rugs are pretty.
Love the unity and team work of a family ❤🙏 Also the plant in your kitchen looks bigger and healthy. 🤗🤗🤗 I do like the rug. Sometimes alittle busy fits in to the decor. I see it as an all season rug. Just need to give it time. 😊
I love the rug so much. I know it always looks a little different in person but it is beautiful & a really nice contrast. I love the plaid too. I don't understand not eating leftovers. Cook once eat twice! 😊
I love the rug. I loved your plaid one but I think this one gives a softer cottage feel and more contrast with the chairs. It would be a nice spring change. Maybe keep the other one and use in the fall and winter and switch them out. Loved this style of video. I would love to see more DITL.
Good Morning Andrea and thank you for another great video. Honestly, take your time with the new rug - change is always good, but takes a bit of time to get used to. Personally, I think the new living room rug invokes a warm, cozy cottagey vide - the rug does not compete, but rather, really compliments the furniture and wall color. It looks amazing and brings a sense of "freshness" to the room. Honestly, you could not have picked a better area rug. You have a real talent and excellent design sense - thank you for sharing this talent with everyone here on UA-cam. Very nice job on your living room. Thank you for welcoming us into your beautiful home. 🙂
I try to always use left overs to make something else so I view them as "extras". I think we thrifty people find ways of using everything, even "extras". I love the new rug as it adds more character to the room.
I love the new rug! It adds character.

I love the rug, over the years I have learned that it takes awhile to get used to new items in my home btw I really am happy to see Gods Word involved in your everyday lessons for the children ❤
Thank you so much! And yes, we also include Bible reading and verse memorization into our daily lesson plans ❤
I’m an Interior Decorator and want you to know that rug is perfect and so warm and inviting! I loved seeing a day in your life with your sweet family. You and Mike are definitely doing an amazing job raising your boys. Have a blessed weekend ❤
Oh my goodness, thank you for your opinion!! And for your kind words ❤
I am always surprised that most people will not eat leftovers. My husband and I have always use leftovers for lunch the next day or we will do a fridge clean out(which we call Must Go Day).

We do "Must Go" in our family too. I hate to throw away good food.

Love the video. Isaiah was perfect when you asked if he’s eating his oatmeal and he says ‘ no, I’m playing’. ❤
Love him! ❤
