    I agree with everything you said except for the rocking chair. Outside on your porch or patio a rocking chair can be SO NICE and serene to sit in while having your coffee or lemonade and just rock away...i love them. I also live in the north east so maybe it's a north eastern type of thing...but i think rocking chairs are cool lol.

    The definition of a stylish home is not exclusively reserved for the contemporary style. The floral and checkered pattern is timeless. English cottage style interiors are a perfect example of wonderful interiors using these patterns. The most important question is whether you like such interiors - it is a subjective matter.

    Agree 99%, Valentina. The porch rocking chairs are where we differ. As a coastal New England native, whose style is somewhat similar to your own, Adirondack chairs on the lawn and white porch rockers are never viewed as dated in this region. Many of the most upscale hotels on Nantucket, Martha’s Vineyard and my hometown of Newport, RI grace their porches with rockers that are the most coveted seats for locals and tourists to enjoy a cocktail and gentle ocean breezes. As for those mid century brown or black rockers you pictured, I definitely agree that they are and have always been unfortunate additions to a room.

We let it go with the house when we sold the trailer. Now I'm looking at paneling in a brick house. I am determined to have a Mediterranean style home some day but for now I just paint them.

      I definitely don’t decide what is stylish. I just share with people the trends and styles. The truth is that styles and trends have existed all throughout history. As we create new things we want new things and it’s incredibly human to desire something fresh and new. Of course the ultimate question is, do you love it? But there’s also nothing wrong with wanting some different and new at the same time.

You can’t find this quality on Amazon… plus I own a 1920 craftsmen four square. Yes we have Redon kitchens bathroom and updated all the real lime plaster… oh the sconces on each side of my old brick fireplace are also period to the home. And I’m very stylish, the most stylish folks know how to blend eras…build a home that doesn’t look like we ordered it all from RH mad pottery barn and Amazon or wheresver. Yes I own all of these a west elm sofa an RH english arm chair…pottery barn vessels but I know how to blend in my vintage and antiques. And I love that color is finding its way into the best designed homes from AD to house and gardens. We don’t all need to live in beige homes. My wood paneling is wainscoting around the dining room beadboard in the mudroom and all seasons room upstairs. I painted the beadboard. But I love the warm wood tones. Anyway the most stylish people know how to juxtapose eras and items…we know how to layer…find quality items and make home feel like home.

    Wood paneling was way out by the end of the 70’s .. also it it’s installed horizontally it totally changes the look , it can be country rustic ..

    Not sure I understand the rocking chair. Yes, it doesn't look especially stylish but it's function is so great! It's calming yet also helps expend a little pent up energy at the same time. Everything else on the list: yes, yes, and yes.

    I’m pretty sure you can use drywall mud to fill in the lines in the wall paneling before painting and it helps. My mom’s house has had every one of the items on your list. I’m slowly undoing her decor after inheriting our family home. Love your channel.

    There is an old superstition about rocking chairs. It’s said that an empty rocking chair will attract wandering spirits of the dead to come and reside at your home.
    Great show! This was a walk down memory lane…my parents home had all of these. 😂

    Don’t even get me started on those urine catcher rugs! Any man who pees on the floor is not datable for me. I have three sons. I taught them how to pee IN the toilet, not AROUND it and showed them how to clean it up with a paper towel and Lysol if they missed. To this day, none of them pee anywhere but in the toilet. Just because almost all,guys pee in the floor, doesn’t mean you have to be one of them. Moms and dads, teach your sons!

    When we got married in 1985 we had that very same sofa set. We finally got it upholstered by a professional. He wants that set if we ever get rid of it. We upholstered it in denim. My son has it and loves the wood. It is well made but dated for sure but that doesn’t matter to him.

    I fought the ugly lazy boy recliner fight and finally won when I introduced my husband to wing back chairs. He LOVES them, and now we have 2 cute, classy, wing back chairs in our house instead of those bulky, marshmallow eye sores. 😂

    I love when you two make videos together, you make me smile! Agree about recliners being ugly, but.... We just solved that problem! Backstory, after a marriage and a move (for me) we are now purging some of my husband's furniture and integrating some of mine into our home. He had a set of two very comfortable chairs; one of them had a huge "ottoman" in front of it, and he would sit there to read the paper. This ottoman (not really an ottoman, more of a small upholstered coffee table which was too tall, hard, and not comfortable to place your feet on) disrupted the flow of traffic. The room was unbalanced which really bothered me, but I seemed to be the only one who noticed. We ended up buying a set of beautiful chairs that actually recline, but look nothing like a recliner! Huge win! They look great and the flow of traffic is seamless...no dodging around that ugly ottoman! Now my husband loves the arrangement and the ease of movement through the space.
    Scale is another thing we are working on! My husband has some lovely pieces that don't fit the scale of the room, they dominate it. We are working to balance the den and guest room now. We will be moving out to do a full renovation this coming fall, but a few tweaks help for now. It is really a process to integrate two households with different tastes and styles. Sometimes it's hard to let go of "this is the way it has always been", but if we respectfully work together we can open our minds to endless possibilities that make both of us happy!

    Hey! I have new Tupperware ...😂 watch it now ..🤪 As we become veteran parents , we realize what works for sure. Men love recliner chairs . Aka , " Dad chairs ." My dad had one and you knew to get out of it when he arrived . He wouldn't say anything, if someone was in it, but he had that look , he wished he was sitting in it. Lighting is very important. I do not like dim lights either . Brighten up the place .
