I had the pleasure of meeting Jennifer at her store-JD’s. I happened to be in the area for a conference a few weeks ago. The store is so precious and Jennifer is so sweet and personable. She helped me pick out some lovely decor for my coffee table. I am so glad I took the time to go to the store. I didn’t expect to see Jennifer let alone meet her and have her help me. Thank you so Jennifer! I love the stuff we picked out at the store. It’s just out the space needed!!
@@JenniferDecorates Hello Jennifer. I had such a wonderful visit to your store and wanted to share with the community. I appreciated you took the time to help me and learn about me (and my dogs). Thank you again. I will certainly return to the store in the future.
I think one of the most important elements of design is to have a focal point in every room. A room without a focal point feels aimless and random. I would put that as number 1 of all rules.
Thank you for the video!! You provide such great information and inspiration. I can't imagine how much time videos must take but please know, we all love them and miss them when you don't post.
Iwas in Tennessee to visit my Grandaughter in springhill! Not to far from Jennifers store! I did get the chance to visit with her at her store.she is so sweet! The store is beautiful..Thankyou Jennifer for making my day.
As a fellow designer, i would completely disagree. The biggest and first advice is to actually plan. That's what any designer does. Measure the area. Always look at dimensions of items. Influencers never mention this because they don't have actual training in design. So they won't think of traffic patterns, clearance, etc. Planning is the main help most non industry decorators need. The color palette is part of your mood board and would come in the first step or two for a designer. Not sure why it's last here. 🤷♀️
Love your channel. I was raised with very traditional upper scale furnishings. I struggle with the modern farmhouse and traditional. Your advice is much appreciated.
Thank you for your video! I have been struggling to find something that would help me with the master bedroom. I have had so much stress and anxiety over making huge mistakes. I’ve waited 24 years to be able to finally do something with this space. I’m stressed over the wrong paint color and what to do with the floor. I even bought a rug a year ago and now I don’t know if I can use it. We have decided to do carpet and in stuck with a beautiful Huge rug. 😢😬😵💫😵💫😵💫
Great tip abbot scale, as I think that’s one of the hardest for us non pros to tackle. Would love to see more on this with real life examples in various spaces. Thanks!
I love lamps, I use over head lights in my kitchen and bathrooms. I have 2-3 lamps in most rooms, even the kitchen. They just give a soft warm feel. Thank you I enjoyed this video.
Great tips, well explained and well illustrated. Thank you, Jennifer. I see faults in some of my rooms, but you have shown how to deal with those mistakes.
Great video. I especially like the look of elegant warmth! I’m not a black and grey decor girl and am so happy to see browns, creams and blues returning.
Jennifer, do you feel that woods should match? Like black coffee table and black end tables? Also, what about metals? Polished silver faucet and brass doorknobs… should they natch or is different ok?
You are so good at giving us tips we can do ourselves! Would love to go to JDs one day and see the decor items! Love all of your videos and you make it easier to decorate! Thank you so much!🥰😍🥰
Love your videos! Would you please do a video on picking the right area rug! Size, color, etc. moved into a new home and I’m having a very difficult time. Thank you! Need ASAP😀
Hi Jennifer, I love your videos always helpful ❤. We just moved to a new home, can you please give me an idea on how to arrange our furniture in the livingroom? We have 3 seater sofa and 2 arm chairs, 1 coffee table, 3 side tables, 1 big tv unit. ..All white walls. One big window on the front wall and the door is on the left wall. I find it quite difficult. Hope you will notice me. Thanks very much.
hi i like your videos ,u r best pls advice me i bought mirror media table my living room is too dark because i have brown leather sofas previous table was also dark mirror table is good .to break the dark colour.
Hi. I am wanting to paint the bead board ceiling in my beach cottage. House is 100 years old. And everything is decorator white and classic gray. Woujd you recommend a color thst woujd look good for my ceiling. Other than white. ? Thank you.
Jennifer I have a real dilemma: I have matte black linear light in dining room and matte black pendants in the entryway next to it. However I love French country white fixtures as well. I want to incorporate antique white and gold in my kitchen lights and over kitchen table (kitchen faucet is black and gold). Is there a way to do it or no? Matte black fixtures are new and can be returned as an option. Oh also plenty of vids on mixing metals but can you do a video on mixing metals and light fixtures that have faux finishes (ie painted type finishes that aren't really a metal?)
You absolutely can mix metals in light fixtures! My rule is to not mix more than two! In my kitchen, I have a brass faucet, and black sconces. My dining room, which you can see from the kitchen has a beaded French chandelier! Hope this helps.
Jennifer, I love your talents. You make a room perfect. However, all of the rooms that you have shown are upscale, clean and uncluttered. Have you or will you ever style a room with loved, inherited clutter?? I know those decorated rooms look so beautiful but there is no ...character, personality, not right words, clutter, know what I mean?? I have so much stuff from a list of older relatives that I just can't part with. Too much stuff but most with a story or they are antiques by now. Can, will you please help us sentimental cluttered people that need more than the 3 item rules?? I bet you'd be helping a lot of people besides me!! Thank you for all the information that we can use. 😊
Some more visual options would be helpful. Talking about things a non professional doesn't understand doesnt help. A video on putting items together would help.
great content thanks. IMO though, you may want to consider and listen to the way you vocalize. In particular your hard emphasis and endings of sentences, and the way you project your voice - to avoid appearing that you are speaking loudly at the viewer. Also you'd benefit from looking straight at the screen, instead of tilting your chin upwards...
Talk about an unnecessary critique {@joannewilson2044}. Jennifer Decorates is AWSOME & I believe is simply trying to make her presentation relatable and interesting. You know what they say~if you can’t say….you know the rest. I love her as well as thank her!
@@joanneprince638 So, what you decided to do was try and shame someone for giving positive constructive criticism? What you should remember is that if you have good manners, then you ignore any comment that is different than your own personal opinion. Please just don’t be that cyber bully who thinks that you have a right to speak to anyone who disagrees with your own personal opinion. Just don’t reply with the angry tone you used in your own comment. Just learn when it’s time to not respond at all.
@@fishercourt positive??? I’m all about positivity! So sorry for your comments to me as you definitely made me feel bad by someone who doesn’t know me and never will. Because you did the same thing to me that she did to someone. What has happened to treating people with respect, as we are all ?? Trying to do that, aren’t we? I’ll never write on this forum again as you never know who will misconstrue what is said. Out

If I have a sofa with just two seating pillows (snowbird rental) on my sofa, should I use three pictures or two?
1. Lighting Layering
2. Rule of 3 balancing
3. Scaled decor....go large
4. Cohesive colourpalette
5. Details
I think one of the most important elements of design is to have a focal point in every room. A room without a focal point feels aimless and random. I would put that as number 1 of all rules.
Thank you for the decorating tips. I appreciate your help. Have a wonderful week.
You as well!

Great tips! Thank you!!💯👍👌
I’d love to see you talk on rugs, and how to place them. Size and colour is so important, as they can be very expensive. Thank you 😊
Jennifer, do you feel that woods should match? Like black coffee table and black end tables?
Also, what about metals? Polished silver faucet and brass doorknobs… should they natch or is different ok?
You can mix metals and woods. My rule of thumb is not to mis more than two at a time!
Great advice, Jennifer. Thank you!

Good afternoon from Hendersonville! 🤗
Well, hello friend!
Thanks for sharing ❤
Thanks for sharing this video.
Thanks for watching!
THANK YOU ❤️
Jennifer, could you do a video on decor ideas for a long dining room sideboard? 100" or so. TY.
Well, that is a great idea!
Thank you,loved the video
Glad you enjoyed it!
What color is on the wall behind you in this video. I always wonder when watching your videos.
great video thank you.
Glad you liked it!
Thank you❤
What’s a good website to find good art work?
I love Etsy! Go check our Heirloom Print Shop. LOVE THEM!
Thanks 🤍
Thank you for your tips!
You are so welcome!
More pictures/examples please!
Do you use the rule of three for a bedroom dresser?
I do!

Where is your store?
It is located at 1824 Old Fort Parkway Murfreesboro, TN. 37128
Your blog has broken link. 😢
Oh , goodness. Thank you for letting me know! We will get that fixed!
You don't have 2 lamps on either side of the sideboard or 2 sconces on either side of the artwork. It's 2 lamps/sconces...one on either side.
🙏🙏🙏🙏
Annoying music but good tips
I have failed everytime. I have a fire place at end of my living room and can't figure out how to decorate it . More space on one size. Than other.
Maybe try a cabinet and mirror on one side, and a tall plant on the other? Or a large basket?
@@JenniferDecorates thank you

She thinks we are stupid. Tell us something we don't know.
Мanger of speech and intonations are strangely funny. As though she is using teleprompter.
