bad interior design trends (& what to do instead)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 сер 2024
- Hi! These are a few of my least favorite interior design trends I've seen on the internet along with some ideas of what to do instead :) I have an extremely long list of interior trends that give me major design icks, so this is just a small sample of trends i don't like.
The trends featured in today's video are:
1. painted accent walls, including geometric murals & painted arches
2. diy wood slat walls
3. faux plants (especially those vines everybody has on tiktok)
4. gallery walls surrounding a tv
What do we think? Do you we agree? Hopefully it's clear why I don't like these trends, and why the alternatives I'm offering will make your space feel better / intentional / thoughtfully designed.
If you're a fellow design nerd be sure to follow along for more interior design rants :)

Thank you so much for saying it's ok for a tv to be a tv!
Gosh I m so with you! Totally go for it, part 2 please!
Except that we didn’t actually need to hear it. We are adults. We can do whatever we want to do regardless of what anyone says.

@@jeffbiddle1956this goes for everything (so we actually didn't need to hear your comment because we're all adults)
Yess!!! Ever home ive lived in, its been place on a cabinet, not the wall, with items styled around and i 1000% prefer this to the "gallery" affect, i watch too much tv to hide it 😂
I feel like the issue with the accent wall criticism is that a lot of those happen because people can only afford to live in spaces (ie. new builds) that have no architectural features to highlight. It's a lot cheaper to paint a wall than add molding or wainscoting etc. But yeah I hate that geometric mural trend that one's a miss
Really good point! How do you elevate a new-build space that's architecturally bland?
please make this a series because your suggestions were very very clever and they would elevate the room instantly
Yeh definitely the best person ive sesn talk about "trends"
Most examples are from a very expensive type of home, where the spaces are giant and the architecture has character. Most of us don't live in homes like that, our spaces a plain and simple, we don't have architectural details to work with, that's why people gravitate to paneling and accent walls...
I kinda hate the way you chose the "good" example pictures. They indeed look great (and I have at least half of them on my pinterest), but the most striking features of those spaces are coming from the architecture itself. And most homes (both on the rent market and on the "bad" pictures) don't have that, so the advice "just add wood panels and highlight architectural features" doesn't work, bc most homes are bland white boxes with giant empty walls, not a midcentury mansion with cool woodwork allover, and you can't just add in those details without it feeling like those fake plants. The same problem with "just adding books": an average person maybe reads about 10 books a year (not counting fanfiction and young adult/romance/self-help, which usually don't look look like the reference images when placed on shelves), It's like 20-30 centimeters of books on a shelf (given that you read them on paper). You can technically buy second hand books just to fill the space, but it's like another fake plant.
I'm a little bit in an interior design crisis (which got a bit better, bc i got myself a place with some cool architecture and really happy about it), because "suburban millenial mom", "zara home postmodern rattan dried flowers" and "thin wooden panel minimalism" kind of mainstream design and the "cool vintage designer pieces good architecture non-conforming" kind of pinterest (your and mine) design feel equally fake and made up.
I hope that I'll achieve something actually genuine and cool in my new apartment, and it'll feel cool and functional for both me and my boyfriend (which is totally clueless about design, but has his own needs and opinions). Wish me luck, please.
You raised valid points. I think we all need to just trust ourselves more when it comes to design. We're often looking for direction from outside of ourselves. Trust your gut instinct and good luck with your design project.
Good luck! I'm not sure why, but I feel as if the books for design thing is transparent & sad. I guess because I've always been a reader & have jettisoned maybe 1000s of books over various moves. I mostly read on my phone or iPad now, except for certain types of books (art, cooking, beautiful reference, sentimental - like I know the writer or it was passed down). Tons of books that you know someone has no desire to read or look at just seems cringe & screams set decoration.
I think if you have a super plain white box trying to do any architectural features is just a no go so using lamps instead of turning on the sterile recessed lighting, getting genuine wood furniture (you can get lots from Facebook marketplace or secondhand) even if it's a little scratched up it usually looks fine (if not you can sand and stain it) and then add in plants and have any physical books that you own even if you think they aren't 'aesthetic' like fantasy or romance they usually look good if you have a pile and style them right and if it still feels ugly turn them so they are facing away, also getting coffee table books that are mainly images from second-hand stores is a good idea because it's less inauthentic as long as you buy ones w/ images that look cool to you and you can flick through so they don't lie there unread. for art using things you or friends made or photos you print and putting them in second-hand frames is usually not too expensive and is still quite personal. Idk if any of that helped but it is what I did in my white box rental.
I think experimentation is a good thing! And personality in a space even more so. When guidelines start to feel like stringent rules, then something is wrong. Design should ultimately improve the quality of your life and reflect your own interests (and perhaps complement the architectural features of a home if you're lucky enough to live in such a building). There is never going to be a consensus on what is tasteful or correct anyways. I'm sure you're going to put together a lovely home! :)
Highly recommend swapping out light fixtures (just put the old ones under a bed or in a closet) it's transformative and you can slowly build your collection and take them with you from place to place (I started doing it 10 years ago with their, vintage and antique chandeliers) same with art, buy things you love not just for the aesthetic. I think he's also mentioning things from high end design to point out that design should be inspired by the provenance of the building, if it's a boring high rise, go modem and minimal because it's not a Mediterranean villa or an industrial loft in NYC. You can love a look but I think the point is to always relate the design to you and also the design of the space and when they are off it's jarring
Noah thank u for the shoutout! Your vid stumbled upon my recommended page. Love what ur doing with ur channel
Ah yay thanks so much Benji! ✨
Thank you for the explanation of WHY the feature wall looks weird vs paint on architectural details. I've never understood why the accent walls look weird often. Also you have such a soothing voice, would so listen to a podcast of yours haha.
as a designer who moved from Europe to Canada, this really healed something inside of me haha some of the North American designs are wild
I know you admitted that your opinions are "controversial". I'm totally with you about everything you presented except for faux plants. Growing and propagating indoor plants has been a huge part of my life for more than 50 years.
After resisting fake plants for many many years, I moved to a home in a southern California desert community where temperatures range from 20s to 100+ degrees. Humidity sometimes hovers around 15-20%. At other times, it's close to 90%. Due to the great variations in temperature and humidity, plant care is not routine and lots of plants simply cannot adapt to the changing conditions. Despite monitoring my plants EVERY day, I've killed more plants than I'd like to admit.
Live plants have become very expensive in recent years and I now consider them an investment. As a senior on a fixed income, I have to be careful not to waste my money, so I've started mixing faux plants purchased at thrift shops with my live plants. There are "good" faux plants and the obviously fake ones. I carefully select "good" ones. I'm happy with the vibe of the combination of live and fake plants. Some people like the way plants look, but they lack the experience or willingness to in put the time and effort necessary to care for plants. I really think that for those people, fake plants can be a good option.
Folks can get free plants in local plant swap groups, FB marketplace, neighbors etc. Would hate for you to give up your love of plants because of it!
Unpopular opinion here : I do like accent walls, particularly when there is no architectural detail to highlight. I thing it brings a pop of color and a different energy to the room, without looking too crowded, and I like that it looks, well, soft. And when it has some kinds of details in it i feel it's almost art, but you did it yourself. I feel like if I owned my home, I would totally paint some details and stuff on my walls. Or invest in a giant canvas and paint it, but I kinda like the idea of having your art as your home. Though I find it rather inconvenient if you want to change the vibe of the room.
Great points! I think most of the TV/gallery walls are bad just because of people buying general/non personal art quickly just to create the gallery (like you said). I personally love a well curated gallery wall even if it shares the space with a tv. I don't think it's always about hiding the tv, more that it shifts the focus point away from it. There's nothing interesting or exciting about a large black rectangle, I'd prefer to look at art if the tv's not on! :)
i cannot believe i’ve stumbled upon your channel with it being so new, but i’m glad i did :’) i love your style from what i’ve seen and can guarantee you’re going to amass a good audience of people that feel the same
Omg such a sweet comment! Thank you so so much :)
Agreed.
I second that!
A gentle pushback on the two-tone paint: I’ve done two paint colors with the bottom color much darker and going all the way around on every wall in almost every place I’ve lived as an adult. (Some people call it “paintscoting”) I usually put the line around 60 or so inches above the floor, or 30 if I want the top color to have more weight. I get that paint meeting paint can look unpolished, but I did try covering the line with some trim, and it made it look like I was trying to make the drywall underneath look like moulding or paneling. This definitely breaks the “honest materials” rule, and I’ve seen so many bad faux-moulding DIYs where there’s just a rectangle of orange peel textured wall framed in. Two things made my paint look good, in my opinion: the line was sharp, which I got by using the tape and caulk trick. The other thing was making sure the line was interrupted by layers of other elements as much as possible, like furniture, art, curtains, doors, etc. When I did that, it was much less of a “paint effect” and more just two colors grounding the overall palette. The darker color on the bottom gives the room a lovely weight, and makes the ceiling look a little taller because of the contrast. Since I’ve found myself with real adult money, I’ve definitely switched over to installing real wainscoting panels. But when I was a broke 20 something artist, paint made the spaces better than no paint.
I really love your UA-cam content so far. I enjoy architecture and interior design more than I care about trends, so it’s great to hear your perspectives…which I agree with. I hope you keep making these videos
Amazing video!!! I love your design take and you delivered it in such a practical, down to earth manner :D
so cool that you also proposed what looks good instead and not only said what's bad! nice video
subbed! you're so well spoken and your ideas are so insightful! as an artist, i love filling walls with big pieces - makes the space less monotonous!
i already love this channel so much. keep goinggggg
thank you for saying its okay to have a tv. I've been brainwashed by other UA-camrs to look for solutions to hiding mine. Im glad i haven't...although I am guilty of the gallery wall around it (to be fair, it wasn't originally intended to hide the tv)
I am absolutely glad to have found your channel, as we embark on our new home journey. All the ideas other designers express as rules make so much sense when you narrate those with corresponding images. 🙌
I own a silk tree . It’s beautiful & sits in front of a window hiding a neighbor’s unattractive backyard . It also makes it difficult to see into the room without having to use a shade or curtain . It is gorgeous , & is wonderful . ( it is also in an appropriately sized pot filled with dirt & stones ) .
This. All of this. But the tv bit… THANK YOU. Let a tv be a damn tv.
Keep the videos coming! People need to hear what you have to say 😂
Haha yes!! So happy you agree. Don't worry there's lots more to come :)
I appreciate the nuance of your answers :) I strongly believe that anything can look good, if done properly, in the right space and you gave some great examples. I think that when something becomes a design "trend", the cheapest version of it ends up on the shelves of every store and on every DIY website. But just because it's in style and there are affordable versions, doesn't mean you should rush to retrofit them into your home.
I'm an interior designer and when clients have a hard time deciding on a selection I say "what would your home want?" lol I start with the architecture and let it guide me. I like to stay true to the original design intention where possible and focus a lot on lifestyle. The design is kind of dictated by what they wear, items they love and how they live. Nobody needs a style, they already have one :)
Ornate gold frames giving “such a weird vibe” made me subscribe immediately 😂
This is so on point! First video I’ve watched and already love you
from your "what to o instead" pics i could tell we have the same style, which is so very rare to find here on yt! immediate sub
I'm so excited for this new channel! I completely agree that UA-cam is missing considered thinking from people who've actually studied interior design. (So glad you've changed up where you're sitting - in the first two videos the background was jarring)
So psyched to have found your channel! Keep making videos!
Just discovered your channel, and agree with everything you have to say on design 😄 can’t wait to see more!
Wow, these suggestions and honest critiques are really helpful to think about, thank you!
This is so authentic, clear message, down to the point but kinda bit ironic (?) which I Love. Keep doing youtube videos. BIG support!
youtube feed suggested this and i’m glad it did because not only you make valid (and necessary) points but you also give suggestions on how things could look more polished in case somebody out there does like those trends. the fake plants mention reminded me of this one time i payed a visit to a family member and their house was FULL of plastic nature, it felt suffocating and just… weird, like???? i never came back. anyway, looking forward more videos from you
I really enjoyed watching this. Noah's perspectives on why something is bad were refreshing and new to me and completely rational. AND his alternative solutions further emphasized and explained why the design trends were bad through contrast. The video was surprisingly well done (compliment).
I'm so glad I came across your channel! Love the way you present your opinions and I just know our vibes are the same. Also, the audio is fantastic in this video. 🤗
Omg every single one of these arguments are ON POINT
I feel like people who hide their tv's or tell you you should hide yours sound so pretentious
I liked the length of this video and I love your style! New subscriber :)
Loving your videos, thanks for sharing your knowledge and perspective! I think UA-cam was missing someone who does more in-depth conversations about design, I feel like I can’t learn anything new from a lot of the more popular channels (although I still love and watch them lol)
I loved your point about how architectural features should define the borders of paint colours, it really made it click for me why I’ve never liked accent walls!
thank you for the video and yt algorithm for introducing me to it! loved that video, keep it up :)
this was such a cozy watch! and i totally agree on every point you made, but especially in accent walls. as someone who loves to color drench, these need to go 🤌🏻
all the right takes and I love the approachable ~fix~ to achieve a similar design intent. Excited to hear more hot takes from a fellow designer :)
Every time the next trend popped up my brain fired with rage 😂. It’s nice to see I’m not alone with my thoughts on these; it’s as if you took the words straight from my mouth!
You are a breath of fresh air. Thanks for speaking out, spread the word lol
agree completely with everything you said. keep these videos coming. its really refreshing interior design content :)
I love listening to the most honest opinion. So satisfying! Already subscribed 👍
The way we have the exact same design philosophy is insane...easily my new UA-cam obsession!
Great picture examples 🎉 I totally have the tv gallery wall and two accent walls 😅 i really like it. Fun to hear some other perspectives tho😊
I thought I was alone in my decorative taste but you have confirmed my opinions. I now have your explanations to justify my decisions, thank you..
I love real plants and I have tons of them OUTside. Inside, I use faux plants. Nice faux plants that look natural. To each their own. I don’t like the mess or the potential bugs that come with having plants inside.
I have lots of natural plants (and a husband to take care of them 😂). But I also have faux ones for places without enough light (because Canada) and high shelves... I place them where the eye cannot see the details
Same!
I'm a plant person (inside and outside my house), but plastic plants are like those fake books that people who don't read buy for their coffee tables. Not a good look.
Would love a Part 2 to this. Loved it
oh yes "I am so special, I need it to "look" like I don't own a tv. lol Glad I stumbled on your channel. a lot of these trends have felt off for me and I didn't know why. thank you for explaining.
You've earned yourself a subscriber! Thank you for allowing my tv to be a tv (I love paige wassel, but AV is such a huge part of my life. What else is my furniture supposed to be pointed at??) And great point about playing to architectural features. Great video.
I'm designing my room and i was going to do 3 of them. I watched your 3 or 4 videos and it's like i feel something uncomfortable in the room but i can't say it then you read my mind and said what to do about it. You saved my room thank you very much. (English is not my first language so i apologize for my grammatical errors.)
Omg the gallery wall + TV is such a hot take😂. "why would you put a TV in beautiful gallery wall" lol. Love the video and all the icks. I almost put up a slat wall when I first saw the idea a few years ago. Thank GOODNESS I never found the time because now they give me the heeby jeebies😅 (or however you spell that)
I’m nodding along in agreement with what you’re saying. All of this is pure gold and fills in the missing piece of the jigsaw puzzle that I’ve been trying to accomplish in my home. Thanks very much.
So glad you mentioned The Frame TV, I have been looking to buy one (as the main piece in the centre of a gallery wall, but we won't do that anymore). Happy it has your stamp of approval as a standalone item
I really like your channel and love hearing all of the theory. It puts some reason behind some things I have opinions about but can’t explain why. I’d love for you to include inspo/example photos that feel much more lived in! Alot of the photos you share don’t look attainable for the average person and home, even though I see what you’re trying to highlight.
I attempted to leave a comment earlier but I think it didn’t post, so sorry if this is redundant!
You weere so eloquent and specific. Thank you, the right feeling and the righ words to point out what's wrong with the painting and adding materials trends.
The only acceptable way to "hide a tv" is to actually hide it, in a beautiful wall to wall unit cabinet that does not look like it's only there to hide a TV
Oh…YOU are the authority? Where is your video so that we can all hear your rules?
Agree, actual wall cabinet is a YES. A TV so clearly NOT hidden in a “gallery” wall has always been off putting to me, as has the frame TV in a garish frame. It’s Uncanny Valley
People have TVs….in 2024….
@@GK-up6xz I mean, I don't cause I don't watch regular TV and my place is small, so I got a projector instead, but some people still do!
projectors i like @@luciflemme
I agree about the painted accent walls and I really like your suggestion to look for an architectural detail to paint instead. Makes total sense to me. I actually have a wallpaper accent wall and have hated the fact that you can see where the wallpaper was trimmed and where it meets the unaccented white walls for years. Now I found out there's flexible molding that you can frame the wallpaper with... will try that. I hope it does the trick ;-)
I love these videos so much
“I really don’t think this is a solution if you’re like horrified of someone finding out you have a tv.”🤣🤣🤣
Love this! I always see design videos where people try to hide their tv but I’ve never seen that in real life… I’d prob think someone was weird if they DIDN’T have a tv🤣 If you’re trying to hide a something as normal as a damn tv, what else are you trying to hide about you?!🤔🤣 Love this new channel, can’t wait for more!!
As an artist, the frame tv solved our desire to enjoy different art, refresh our place with new art without putting more holes in the wall. I agree it shouldn’t be included in a gallery wall. It’s beautiful on its own. I think it really depends on you, we do family movie nights about twice a month. Majority of the time it displays art. My gallery walls are in the bedroom’s where I can enjoy them. Great content! ❤
My home has 4 bedrooms and in each one a different painted accent wall. The trick is to intentionally link that colour throughout the room.
For example: wall art, throw blankets, candle holders, lamp shades etc.
Repetition in a hue's tint/shade/tone make an accent wall congruent with the surrounding elements.
Since a bedroom is a relatively private space, have fun experimenting with colour.
The rest of my home is painted a warm white so the public spaces are consistent. Although l incorporate colour through wall art, rug and accessories.
The faux token olive tree which replaced the faux fiddle fig tree is overkill on many interior influencer channels.
Great start on your interior design channel 😃👍
Love every part of this!
Hi Noah, love your channel. There is one aspect to the slatted wooden panels I think you've overlooked, with regards to their form following their function. I do think slatted panels can/should serve an important function in room, and that is one of an acoustic diffuser. If you have a more minimal aesthetic, and you end up with an echoey sounding room, and want to make it cosier/more homely I think slatted panels can help with this, especially if the room in question is your main music listening room. Just my 2c.
I think there needs to be a differentiation between intents. Is someone doing an accent wall because, while it was a trend, they genuinely like it and want to make their surroundings full of what they enjoy? Or are they doing it because someone told them it was The Trendy thing to do? Or because it was trendy, they did it thinking it would increase the appeal of their house if/when they try to sell it? Let people enjoy the “bad” interior design choices if it’s what gives them joy in the spaces in which they live. There should be better, I don’t know, education? More emphasis? That trends are fleeting and they should be making these decisions because they actually like the effect, not because some article writer told them it’s cool.
Love your vibe and channel.
would love to know your tips for creating zones in a small open concept space, as that is the reason i was considering a painted arch. great video!
I’m really loving to hear the theoretical perspective on design. What I don’t love is that your examples/inspo pictures just don’t feel lived in. I feel like you should do a video where you highlight lived in spaces with good design. Or show us yours. Or ask for subscribers to send theirs in and highlight the good design features.
i love this video so much! I really appreciate that you added in alternative suggestions to this issues in design.
just like everyone else, i feel the same way about the television in the living room. if you are trying to hide the tv in your common space… maybe and just maybe… don’t put on in there, because what’s the point of covering it?!?!.
This was so helpful!
1000% Agree with all of it. Some really (otherwise) great designers I follow have made these exact suggestions! Especially the plastic plants and gallery tv wall yuck! This video had me hitting the sub button 😊
Im obsessed with you 😭
First of all, I'm enjoying your videos so much! Question I'd love to hear your thoughts on. If you have a stock-standard house with no interesting architectural features... how do you work with that? Like I absolutely love MCM but it's really about the architecture at its core, so adding mid century furniture feels out of place in my house. And I need to add some character/interest somehow so, not gonna lie, I am thinking about painting feature walls and using those wood panels that you hate ha! What would you do to decorate a bland modern house?
Great tips… Especially the part about architectural emphasis…. I agree 💯 precent…
Your taste is so good! Subscribed!
It took me just some seconds to sub you, great video/ideias/all, really like your style, Keep making videos :)
I love your videos !!!!!!!
couldn't agree more with all of this, well done
Really interesting video, loved it!! Honestly i was hypnotized by your way of speaking, you express yourself really well. Also I’m pretty sure we have the same Pinterest :) Cheers from Argentina!!❤
Thank you so much! So glad you enjoyed 💞
What if you have a cat that eats your plants 😩
Then get a minimal collection of plants, put them on cupboards where your cat can't reach. It's also fine to just not have any plants.
I've been really obsessed with the idea of doing a wood slat wall in my living room. I live in a large, but not very beautifully constructed flat and was hoping to make the space more interesting/special/threedimensional by adding such a wall. I also hate the wallpaper. you gave me something to think about - not sure what I'll do!
Thanks for the helpful video. Great to get so many examples. Although many of the things you said should stop did look pretty good. Just a heads up that interesting architectural elements are hard to find in most homes and adding tile or wood instead of paint ups the cost significantly.
Totally agree with everything you said. A gallery wall around a huge TV looks so awkward. It's not even distracting from TV. The only thing it's doing is that the TV distracting from the art.
This was a great video and even though I have been guilty of one or two of those things, I think you gave great reasons as to why these trends don’t quite work. I appreciate you also talking about what these trends might be trying to achieve to begin with (with the wooden slats and fake plants). That allows us to learn and understand the importance of intent with design.
Btw- I don’t know if this is important to you or not but I noticed that at 5.42 minute mark in your video, you used what might potentially be an AI generated image (the AI trees have a grainier quality, the other plant in the wall niche is fading in and out of existence.. unless it’s a painting, the lighting is very ethereal, and whatever is on the coffee table is extremely confused about what it’s supposed to be). It just stood out to me since it’s in a segment about the importance of real plants over fake ones. But it might be real for all I know, I’m curious now though. 😅
I disagree with "large art" just for sake of having some accent on the wall, particularly if you end up blowing up a banal film poster, etc. I saw more mundane geometric shapes in a frame than I saw accent walls. Both horrible, but "art of sake of art" is more prevalent. Let the wall be a wall, and put something up only if it's decent artwork or somewhat meaningful to you.
Love your takes 👏
Three immediate thoughts that came to my mind: If a painted wall is what's giving you major icks, you're doing pretty good. Sometimes you're NOT trying to hide a tv. If people weren't glued to TikTock, would they still think that things are over saturated? Oh, one more thing: Thank goodness design is not a monolith. Have the strength of your conviction to make your space tell YOUR story.
many of the wood slat walls are actually felt-backed sound deadeing panels which basically create more calm acoustics in a room and that's their function. I do agree with you about the look of them, but if you wanna swap them out with something that has a similar acoustic effect I would suggest hanging large fabric / fibre art or looking for other large acoustic paneling. The sound and acoustic qualities of spaces are often overlooked in interior design imo!
Cool! Nice advice and ideas!
great takes!!!
Spot on with all of them! I am very curious about your take on the use of colored paint in concrete flats with low ceilings (usually built in the early 1980s), especially when there is a solid wooden floor, which makes the space between the floor and the ceiling even smaller. Because of the same reasons you mention, I don't want to leave the ceiling white, but rather give it the same color as the walls. On the other hand, a colored ceiling, when low, can make the space even more oppressive, I imagine. I must say that I have never actually seen good examples of interior design in concrete low-ceiling homes. I am very curious if there are any references on this from interior design theory. Thank you for your videos, you validate all my gut feelings about interior design.
I want to get rid of my accent walls but don‘t want to compromise on a healthy splash of color. Especially in my open kitchen/dining room/living room space it‘s hard to section off the living space I want to be colorful.
omg the wood slat walls got me at first i had a moment where i really thought I liked them, but they absolutely give sad airbnb to me now.
hahahahahahahah, those faux vines are killing me!!! yessss, please stop that grass trend!!!!
You get me 💫
Plastic faux plants are horrible, but there's more wiggle room than you let on. I have a faux bird paradise plant made of paper and in a west-facing basement room. The issue isn't being able to keep plants alive (the amount of live plants in the rest of my house is becoming a problem); it's the lack of natural light. I haven't found many grow lights that work well in a shared living space, and a large cactus/shade-tolerant plant didn't work. Is your suggestion to not use plants in this scenario?
Agree 100% with everything you say. The hard part is communicating this to your clients.
Shit I was thinking about doing a gallery wall with our tv in our next house but I must admit you're right... thanks!
Yes Noah!! Well said. I agree wholeheartedly with all you said! Cheers to you!
Yay! Thanks so much Katy :)
Yep, I knew my accent wall was a dumb idea. 😂
But I still love the color, so I’m gonna paint the whole room now!
