One of the most informative, enjoyable Q&A on UA-cam I've seen. Your answers are thorough and your personality shines through keeping it fun. Thanks for the consistent video quality!
Watching your videos always gets me in such a mood to redecorate and start diy-ing. And i can't decide whether thats good or not because while decorating is so fun I dont have that many options in my dorm and also I should really study instead of thinking about how to better my room
Mary Elizabeth I'm literally in love with you. Its amazing how detailed and insightful you answers are, they can really help anyone watching not just the people asking the questions!
You answer each person's question so thoroughly! l love all of those visual aids/ pictures that you include. Awesome video, as usual. Can't get enough of your channel. Xoxo
i know a lot of people have been making apps and what not lately, and im not sure if anyone has one for interiors yet... but mary, you should so look into making an app where you and your followers can post pics and ask questions and share ideas about decor! that would be so cool!
Hi Mary! I love the idea of taking only few questions and answering them fully instead of giving shorter answers. Quality over quantity 💋 needless to say you're fabulous and one of my very few favourite youtubers. Keep up the good work xo
Hi Mary! I love the idea of taking only few questions and answering them fully instead of giving shorter answers. Quality over quantity. 😄 needless to say you're fabulous and one of my very few favourite youtubers. Keep up the good work xo
Miss Mary E!!! It's sooo good to see you, I really miss your weekly videos. Idk what it is but I cant get enugh of your videos. Hands down, you're by far one of my favorite youtubers. You make want to live in LA! Much love from Brooklyn, NY! GBY
I adore you! This is perfect. Your content is just fantastic and relatable, useful and professional. I am so impressed with how "you" this channel has become and how relatable and appealing your personality and aesthetics are.
Your expertise and plain old talent come through so well in these videos. Love hearing your advice for spaces, and love the consistent quality of your videos. Wish you the best
You really inspire me with new Ideas for my interior! I have decided to become an Interior Architect! Love your style too, and your ideas for others' rooms inspire me loads!
Incredibly helpful. I love your style. Very interesting and classy. Your designs look really complicated and involved, yet you describe it in a way that makes me feel like I can do it myself. Love your videos.
This is such a great video. I really like how you included the pictures with your explanations! Please keep making more of these Q&A videos. Super cool idea.
I would like to see your closet, or a closet organization video. I was inspired by ikea's video on creating a walk in closet inside a normal bedroom room, so I fulfilled a similar look in my own bedroom. But can't wait to see your house tour, really looking forward to it.
This was wonderful! I especially loved the feedback about antique + modern styling. I also have a shared space as for the last commenter and have now got some great ideas to try in my own living space. I can hardly wait to see more of these videos! And basically anything and everything from your channel, let's be real ;)
For separating a bed from the rest of a room, I always love a canopy. It doesn't have to be big or even an actual canopy, just something to hang over the bed. Personally I really love a sheet or long curtain draped over two curtain rods so that it hangs above the bed.
I love your channel! You have a wonderful way about you and so much expertise and passion in what you do! I have the lucite console from CB2 and it is perfect! It gives you so many options as a desk, vanity, or entry table and it works with everything.
Just came here and subscribed directly, you are fabulous girl! You have a gorgeous voice and great style tips, looking forward too following you for many years to come!
Mary! Could you do an inexpensive but chic college dorm/apartment decor video? I would love a stylish take on a dorm room. I'm gagging with the abundance of matchy-matchy monograms and whatever trend clogs up Pinterest that week.
Another note about bohemian, I absolutely love when people incorporate lots of plants. Hanging plants, potted plants, whichever you prefer as long as you use a wicker baskets or knotted fabrics in the hanging plants with loose scruffed ties hanging below.
For scandinavian design you don't have to use just white, black or grey. This may be the foundation of the room but bont be affraid to put in really brightly coloured textiles, red (like nose blood) and royal blue blankets are one example of how you can make the room less dull.
I love you so much Mary! Please keep making videos! I feel like if we lived in the same city we could totally drink wine and go to thrift stores together (not at the same time of course). :D!
Hey, I hope you see this comment, I'm Sacha who asked you the first question on twitter. Thank you soooo much for answering in such a thorough manner, I definately feel more certain about the couch style I'll be getting. I think I'll go grey as you said and add some cool pillows and a warm blanket ! I'll also add the warm woods with a table I found at Ikea for 99€ I'm really grateful you took the time to answer, you're the best !
Hey Mary, What colour scheme can I do put with Red Mahogony cherry red hardwood flooring, but I want to make things modern and contemporary. Like, the black white and gold scheme. Kind of like *elements of style* book. I'm inheriting these floors from previous owners.
Hi Mary, I'm new to your channel and I love it so far. I was wondering if having different tones of wood in one space is ok and how to make that work? Thanks! xxo
eeeek! I was going through withdrawls when you didn't post videos for like a month!! I am complete again!!! Love all the ideas! Quick question! My couch cushions are pretty flat and not comfy anymore, do you know of an affordable way to make it nice and comfy again for myself and guests?
Mary, you are so welcoming! I am lucky to be building a house from scratch and I am overwhelmed with choice. We have an open concept long kitchen, dining living space and I would like a clean cottage chic feel. I love grey, I want to go with a light coloured wood floor but I am struggling with what tone of grey to use - I don't want it to look stark so I was considering a warm grey wall colour with white cabinets. Do you have any guidance for how to choose a wall colour that wont clash with a natural wood floor?
Hey Mary! Any tips for decorating my dorm, classes start in a couple weeks and I am living in a apt style dorm. Looking for great ways to personalize my space but on a college student's budget
As usual: I loved your video! What would your suggestion be for people who live in super-super-super small bedrooms. Currently my room is so full, I don't know where to put all my precious books!!! Enjoy your day! - Milan
Hey Mary! I have been watching your videos for 3 hours straight and I'm in LOVE! You are absolutely amazing and I love how thorough you are. I also have a question. My bedroom is currently being renovated meaning I get to start fresh! (Although I'm keeping most of the same furniture). My room is unique in the way that it is one of those "finished attics". This can be difficult because I have slanted ceilings that can really close up the room. Because the ceiling starts slanting at about 3 feet, I have no room for a headboard and it would look strange to paint the whole wall. So I was wondering if you had any tips to open up the room and also another way to draw attention behind my bed without painting the wall or using a headboard. Also any tips that will help with my slanted ceiling.
hi mary we've just moved to a new house and now have a downstairs bathroom with only a toilet and a sink both on the side wall. The only problem is that there is a lot of negative space in the rest of the room the makes it feel empty and cold every time you go in. Any tips on what to do with the space, also color schemes that will be bright but make the room still feel warm? xxx
What is your reccomendation for decorating a brown couch? I love the clean, simple and white look. But I have a brown couch and don't know what to do. #askmary
Mary!! I need your help!!!! We just bought our first house😆 but we need ideas for our living room, so our one wall is reddish orange and the others are light cream, very pretty in my opinion so keeping that just need ideas for furniture white is the only color that won't work because we have dogs, I trust ur opinion more then anyone so PLEASE HELP!!! I love you Mary!!!❤️❤️
When one lives as far north as the Scandinavians do, it's ALL about capturing LIGHT--hence, white walls, furniture. etc. Pretty look, but I wonder how practical.
Mary, I don't know if you answer questions in the comment section, but I want to ask you something. Can you make an actual living out of designing homes and stuff like that? If so, how? And are there even schools that teach that? And I'd also love to know how did you get into this kind of stuff. Love you and keep doing what you are doing currently.
+Riad Baghdadi i know this reply is super super late, but if you're interested in interior design and architecture, do an interior architecture degree! its a mix of the two, and its usually a university degree, so you have solid qualifications at the end of the degree, rather than just a diploma! hope this helped :)

My dresser, vanity, and 4 poster bed are all antiques from. My great great grandmother I think!
Mary! Could you do an inexpensive but chic college dorm/apartment decor video? I would love a stylish take on a dorm room. I'm gagging with the abundance of matchy-matchy monograms and whatever trend clogs up Pinterest that week.
Instead of focusing on decorating, focus on studying. Its just a dorm. You can decorate after you graduate and land a job.
SUCH AN AWESOME VIDEO. I need more. Love it.
Loved the video, awesome ideas and advice! 😍
your'e the best,i was sad before and then i felt happy watching this video :)
I like when you have dark roots and blond strands of hair it looks pretty
