I went into this video prepared to be annoyed, but I really enjoyed it (it didn’t hurt that I hadn’t committed any sins on the list lol). And I like your evil, baby clown laugh 😈👶🏻🤡
Hahaha yayyy so glad you enjoyed this ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Oh my word! The baby clown laugh! You nailed it! 🙃😂
Greetings from Austria 🇦🇹
@@ArvinOlano roasted 🤭🤭
His evil baby laugh is what makes these videos entertaining.😅
Hey I'm not turning my living room into a jungle, I just put a sofa in my plant room is what happened. :-)
Do what makes you happyyyyyyyyy 😄
Same here then! I guess that counts! 😂
Hehehhehe same 😏
I have over 150 houseplants. My sofas happen to exist
🥲
“Ms. Green thumb. . . you were bored girl, I get it. . . Ms. Poison Ivy, let’s calm it down” 😂😂😂
Omggggggg. 😂😂😂😂😂 I literally had to clean out the plants.
When I tell you I cried 🤣😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
I cried so hard in my office and thankfully most co workers are working remote. I'm proud to say I got rid of more than half of those gnat hotels and got control over that mess. LOL!
Lol, plants give life and can be well incorporated into almosy any aesthetic!
Although I do agree poorly cared for plants do become gnat holes! And that absolutely has to be tended to because nobody likes bugs!
Cheers
I feel personally attacked but on the other side i kinda feel like he's my bestie giving me a piece of advise with brutal honesty and love at the same time, i don't know if that makes sense
No, Arvin! I need my plants! 🤣 Seriously, you start with one or two and then they’re so soothing you get five more. They’re so addicting.
Yes I have my plants too
I also adore plants. I'm absolutely addicted to succulents. And it means that I have hundreds of them. But not even single one I'm keeping inside the house. Couple years ago I had a tiny brain cactus and even that ended up in disaster of brown spots under the pot (no matter how careful I was with watering) and stupid little insects living around it. Seriously, I have no idea how you are doing this guys, how you are managing to keep all those plants inside.
Am guilty of this also.
I think plants are the most beautiful decor.
Yes the plants are a saving grace! If you are a gardener in a payment paradise the keep you sane
“Bitch your name better be holly or happy or hoody hoody hoo” I died 💀🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 love it!
Lol he is so funny!! His laugh just makes me laugh
Me too
I was literally LOL in my car 😆😂😆
Took me out!
Totally agree
arvin: there is no reason to have 50 plants in your living room
me, in my living room: 🌵🌱🍃👁👄👁🍀🪴🌿
Same. No one is moving out, but I can agree to not let anyone new move in (I hope)
All living rooms should have a minimum of 50 plants! 😆 I only have 10 so I need to step up!
same ! I have 16 and I just love each of them...they give me joy every day !
You can pry them out of my cold dead hands!!!! 🤣❤️
me and my 30 plants: don't talk to me or my son or my son or my son or my son or my son or my son or my son or my son......
Arvin, you need some plants in the room you’re sitting in actually 🤣
Right? He's got some great lighting in there 😆
And mirror.
An ivy🤣🤣
And a few frames next to that lonely sculpture... Probably still a work in progress 😆
Perhaps some flowers, not plants…
Man you have a personality 😁 love u
I love when you start your videos with "Nobody asked". I smile every time. And your laugh is contagious
"You are not about to film the next Tarzan movie in your living room" lmaooooooo 💀 I can't.
I literally cried with this one.
I think Arvin should make a an actual video visiting someone with bad taste 🤣 it would be so interesting
Great idea. I would love to see him makeover someone's space or at least give the "no, no, no."
@@jjf609 right like a total opinion first like no no no and then transform the room here and there or a complete transformation
Yaaaasssssss
He has to stop changing his livingroom first.😁
Yes! Come to my house lol!!!
-You laughing at yourself about the fake Hermès blanket
-Your edits
-Your energy/personality
I had to subscribe 😂😂😂❤️
“Take it out of your cart” this is why I keep watching. You help relief all the things I am overthinking and it’s holding me back from enjoying my stuff LOL
No matter how many times, you've poo poo'd on my home décor, I MUST watch your upbeat and uplifting attitude! You really are a brightly shining star. Love you, Arvin!
I'm here for the giggles, shade, and the hand movements. 💗💗💗💗
I love the jungle screaming 🤣🤣🤣
and his laugh! 😁
100% lol I love it!
Yes all of it!!🤣🤣🤣
Plants make people happy! Growing plants have actually helped me immensely stress, anxiety, and decreased my depression relapses. I’ve suffered from chronic depression ever since I was a young teen, and I’m sorry if it’s tacky to you! But I just love my plants!
Cal down Ms. Poison Ivy 🪴🪴😜
Plants don't have to be tacky and those who think they are, need to stop and smell the roses every once in awhile : )
he meant the exaggerated amount. plants are and still will be a good decorative element in any home.
The thing is...plants are not decoration, they have needs of light, humidity, water and nutrients, and I hate when people treat them as a nice decorative piece and forget about taking care of them. Buy fake plants then, if you want something green in the dark corner of your room with small windows... If I have a room in my house with huge windows and tons of natural light, then I will stack my plants there, because the reason I have them is to nurture them, just like I would take care of a pet.
I get it, if you are into enterior design, you won't want a cluttered feeling, but I like nature, and plants, and taking care of them, so I will have tons of plants nicely arranged in the spot they feel best. :)
People who have an exaggerated amount of plants are most likely the ones who have them as a hobby and love the look of them. But I get where he comes from.
OMG, I laughed so hard. I am guilty of the two color thing. When you showed room in the video I thought "Uh-huh, get outta my two-toned parlor!" But you are right; my living room slightly resembles a medieval Ashley Furniture Rental showroom. Yes, my sofa is brown and has a slipcover. Okay, my living room is a tacky superfund site. Whoever designed it put in a ceiling fan with eight spotlights that could light up a runway at SeaTac; adding just a couple accent lamps would make the lighting so much more... gentle... until I can afford to have the ceiling fan ripped out and donated to a hospital operating room. Thanks for the tips while I sort out what is my style versus what is in style this year (week, decade, century).
LOL!!!
I always “like” before I even watch. I’m never disappointed 🧡
Me too!
@@tatygonzalez8664 me three
Same ! ☕️🤍
You are all my QUEENS 🥲🙏🏼
Same!
I love the whole "miss Poison Ivy, calm it down"🤣🤣🤣
Starting with the self-deprecating "nobody asked but..." helps all the stuff that follows be taken in the right spirit.
I was so nervous watching this video bc my husband and I finally moved into our new home and we’ve been decorating a ton!! Glad to know my eye/design style doesn’t include any of the things you mentioned 😂😂 loveee these videos Arvin, keep it up!! ❤️
Ok, I do adore you, but in my own opinion, I feel your space needs more decor. The two things above your sofa, seems out of place. I feel it is missing something, more color, or a statement piece above your couch.
I totally agree! Love Arvin but I do feel like something is missing.
They seem like they're random, floating pieces. He needs something to tie them together. Kinda like the concept of a floor rug anchoring pieces of furniture.
@@toffeeapple7783 Yes never throw out when you can donate.
Needs some plants
Disagree, I like it exactly like it is. But if he comes across the perfect thing to put there, go ahead Arvin.
Ok, I felt attacked and proud of myself at the same time in this video... hi my name is Billie Jean sally sue and I have a dark brown couch and a plant addiction...
Keep working the program, Billie Jean. I have a dark brown leather couch..... and honestly, if my nick name weren’t Plant Manson, I’d have tons of greenery. ...Hate most of the fake plants I own.
Me too. I have kids. I need that dark brown couch and those 50 plants.
@@tasha770ify , yeah ,but you have to get the man eating type of plants. They’ll eat your kids, problem solved, and you can enjoy your quiet relaxing living room, LOL
hi my name is Billie Jean sally sue and, NOBODY ASKED, BUT I have a dark brown couch and a plant addiction...
FTFY
@@justme-on7bn not a bad idea... I like the way you think...
Woah, this was a rollercoaster of emotion for me. I was thinking, “oh please, I hope I didn’t do any of it!”, “Phew, glad I didn’t do that” and “🤞🏼ok, what’s next 😖.” I was in the clear. I’m glad that some agree with me and that comfort comes first.
Hey, Arvin, can you pretty pleaaaase make a "roast my home design" series where fans send you on instagram videos where they present their interior design ideas and you give them advice/you roast them! i think it would be so funny, cos you are damn hilarious!
This is such a good idea!
Yess !
Yes! This would be so good!
Oh my godddd such a wonderful idea. That would be a bomb! Totally u must consider Arvin. That way we have a good laugh but still learn wat to n wat not. As no info is too much info.
I would totally send my pics in!
I love the “nobody asked but...” 😂😂😂
You’re amazing. I can’t stop binging your videos. I’m having a lot of fun while also learning. I completely agree with every item you listed. It’s almost as if you pulled my subconscious. I knew there was something off from these trends.
I am obsessed with the lights in the back highlighting the feminine body sculpture wall art! I’ve never wanted to copy and paste so much!! Lol
"There's no reason to have 50 plants in your livingroom" ...what about in my guest room because I don't have guests 😅
@@gofigure4920 yesss rooms look so much more comfortable and inviting with plants in them
@@gofigure4920 no need to clutch your pearls, lol. He’s not calling people bitch in the literal sense of the word, it’s more supposed to be a playful and sassy universal term. For ex. “I just hooked up with my ex!” “Oh, bitch…” (translation: oh, no…) or “Do I look bad in this dress?” “Biiitch “ (translation: oh please, you look good in anything!)
I get this may just be a culture difference too but no need to call this person names just because you misunderstand what they mean.
The plant one HURT.ME. lmaooo. But I don't have a jungle. Just a bunch of little plants on my entertainment center and I've accepted that I will never reach the perfect living room 🤣🤣
okay thank u; i was beginning to feel like a heartless jerk for thinking family photos in the living room are tacky
Your laugh is so sarcastic , mocking and mischievous and for that reason I adore you.
LOL love that
I love when Arvin cracks himself up!! Gets me rolling every time! 😂
You're downright cool! Spot on...🤗😅🤔
I’m a recovering pillow addict. At times, I’m fairly certain my husband and kids wanted to smother me with them.
😂 I can relate!
Hahahaha
Hahaha
Oh girl!! You and me. Recovered addict here.
Stills in my addiction! ; )
Never have I ever enjoyed interior design videos this much in my life. Your laugh is contagious, banter like hot salted butter and your reads are Doctrine level.
I'm learning so much and having a blast watching your videos. Thank you for sharing yourself with us 😀
I just got rid of my brown sofa and replaced it with a lovely grey. Thanks for the tips
YES TO THE FAMILY PHOTOS. 1 or 2 are okay, but some people have a full blown album on their walls.
Absolves my guilt for NOT having family photos everywhere! I have ONE gallery wall and no photos anywhere else. Thought I was a bad parent--who knew I was just stylish?! :)
Photos of dead people all around you!
I agree! I cannot take all the random wall photos everywhere in people’s homes. Ekk!
My SIL has family photos in the loo 🤔 never thought about it too much, but yeah, that's weird.
It ends up being distracting and no one even appreciates the better photos in the mix. Maybe a gallery wall that is a little more art and a few treasured family photos.
Can we talk about your random wall art placement behind you 😂😜💕
Chloe im dying here i was thinking the same thing lmaaaaaao
😂
🤭
Please! Thank you! They are too random, too far apart and make no statement whatsoever. That fan is too small for that wall, and that light with the two pieces is dominating and oppressing that small sculpture. It looks like it is about to eat it. He has no sense of scale. He went from copying one well known designer to copying another one. What is worse is he doesn't understand the aesthetic of either one. He isn't trained in interior design and doesn't understand it. There is nothing wrong with a dark brown sofa. Miles Redd uses them all the time and Brian McCarthy has one on the cover of his latest book and it is gorgeous and way prettier than the gray one in the video. Of course Arvin actually said that Miles Redd and Brian McCarthy look "cheap" to him. Right and his Ikea curtains look luxurious. GarrettLeChic actually knows what he is doing and teaches universal principles.
Yea… it needs to stop 😹
Ms. Poison Ivy and Ms Green Thumb 🤦🏽♀️🤣 I’m so weakkkkkkk
Oh man I love your laughter, especially when I watch a video on x1.5 speed
I always like the introduction “nobody ask but”. I also laugh at your comment “you don’t need to listen to me...like your an adult” which is very true. For me, I find your contents very helpful especially people who are doing home renovation and improvements. Love it! Keep it up
I feel like the next pet I get is going to be named "Billy Jean Sally Sue" now
LOL! YES!
I love this video! Total common sense !
I love how you present, it’s totally fun to watch and makes the point brilliantly.
And your reference pics so spot on I get that - oh I know that one, each time , may be that’s what makes your videos so fun
You had me ROLLING with the H Logo blanket 😂 Your videos always brighten my day - you have the best sense of humor and I love your design aesthetic!
So happy I am not the only one that hates it when someone says, "Pops of Color." That one and "I am obsessed. " Mommy vloggers are the worst offenders of everything he's mentioned.
Lately I’ve been thinking about/hating on the “I am obsessed” ... so thanks!
@@Hobbesnevie another thing Arvin mentioned was plants. To me as long as they are real and taken care of. Don't get me started on twigs with plastic leaves a.k.a. fake plants.
Agree- so tired of every blogger overusing the word obsessed!
Obsessive compulsive obsessing could become a thing.
@@carolethorn3211 LOL
That laughter at the “H” blanket is iconic.😂🤣
😂😂😂😂
😁😁😁😁
I'm moving to a new house soon, and I can't wait to apply everything I've learned from you!
I love the basic two or three colour scheme, maybe not the pink and grey, but the light blue and cream looked amazing 👀
This has become my favorite channel lately. I just love everything about Arvin. He is so calming. His laugh is infectious and I love his sense of style. I just find his videos to be somehow relaxing and love the tips.
I was thinking the same about Arvin. Definitely love his laugh.
@@messysaywhat yes I listen to arvin when I am most depressed. he always lifts my mood and is so funny,
Arvin, you’re priceless. No one else educates me more while also being so entertaining. Why couldn’t you have been my high school math teacher? 😁
Your energy, enthusiasm and excellent eye all delight me every time I watch. Thank you so much for sharing this amazing video!
Oh my gosh you’re hilarious I love it!!! And I love plants too! But I wasn’t even offended. Love your attitude and personality and that laugh 😂❤️
I’m dying rn did he just say hoody hoody hoooo!?! I love him lol
Ok I saw this blanket on someone page and I thought it was a monogram blanket. I was like why does she have this when he last name doesn’t start with an H 🤣
I really like your videos and the advice you give! Yes, you have a definite personal style but under all that, you're as solid as they come, intelligent and you know your stuff. I've always been able to find something useful as I watch your work! Thank you.
Also if you like a specific colour, a good way to blend it nicely is to select colour samples from the paint store (the ones with four or so colours, in a gradient) and choose decor accents that match a different one, so you have alot of green but it's a gradient throughout the room.
I feel hurt about the H logo blanket because I have it and also my living room looks like a jungle because of my plants . OMG but I still can’t stop laughing about it . Lol. I love watching these videos though.
Do what makes you happy...afterall, it's your house and you can do whatever you want.
" I don't want a POP of color, okay?!? I want a blend!!!" I LOVE you!!! This is amazing! Subscribed I'm an instant fan!
Style, simplicity and savings. Thankyou Arvin.
That fake Hermes blanket commentary already made my day!!
Arvin.....You don’t know that Tarzan won’t be filmed here one day! 😂
I mean don't motivate me to get any more plants lol Tarzan might show up and I can swing from those branches???? Off to the nursery... 🪴
If we listen with some interest…there’s so much sensible suggestions .
Thank u!
His laugh is so infectious! I love it so much!!☺☺
I NEVER disagree with anything u say 😂!! It’s so refreshing to hear someone say what needs to be said and Is confident enough to convey it ! Thank u 🌺
Never in my life saw that blanket before haha.. I thought it was a Houston Astros blanket lmao
I LOVE IT HERE!!! Arvin you are the best
Love your videos and helpful tips!! You presented them in a creative way😊 Thanks!
It was the “Bitch, your name better be Holly or Happy or Hodie, Hodie, Hoo!” For me!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 cracking up!!!!
😁😁😁
😂
Dead 😂😂😂
I always thought having a shelf above the couch was dangerous ~
You are a delight. I loved this video and the one about chairs. I validated my taste in design through your choices and I feel great about renovating my place now. You replaced my stress with excitement. Much appreciated. Lots of love.
Your little laugh is so cute. Most watchable interior design creator I’ve found so far
Shine on Arvin. Your star keeps getting brighter. 💫⭐️💫
That Kylie clip just sent me over the cliff I can't stop laughing 💀💀💀💀💀😂😂😂😂
I just love your laugh--and your energy. It's so fun and uplifting to watch you. Thank you for such great content. P.S. The "scream" SFX is hilarious. And I always agree with your critiques--love how fun and insightful you make them!
Thank you for all your recommendations! Love
your videos!
I feel like I was JUST commenting about how close you were to 100K and now look at you at almost 200k!! Your channel exploded and you so deserve it!
Ok..........now you’re going to have to do a video on how to style/cover up a brown leather couch if you’re absolutely stuck with it.
Great tips!! love your energy
Love this channel so much
Found it today and I can’t stop watching your videos
❤️
Love these “don’t do this” “do this” videos👍 You simplify it for those of us who need it spelled out😘! And yeah, the laugh is contagious; we need a “life isn’t always that serious” moment!
Anything you can dedicate "a moment" too is legendary and worthy of an Arvin laugh or maybe a "Chef's kiss" muah!💋
I know no one else asked but start showing us the outfits 😍
Yes, I agree!!
I don't ever leave comments but your laugh is everything, made my whole week. So cute
Your laugh and energy is everything! First video I've seen of yours, and I'm hooked :)
That laughter...the reason I'm laughing alone at almost 3 am. Greetings from Manila! 🧡
You're awesome! Thank you for all these videos.. keep them coming ❤
I just started watching your videos and I absolutely LOVE you! Subscribed indefinitely! ❤️❤️
Omg family photos are always classier than posters with “love life”
I love what u said about family photos. I have clients that want walls & walls of their kids...and I'm always like, "don't they all still live here!"🤣
TY TY TY! I am so happy I found your channel 💘

I love everything you said!!! Such a nice attitude and your laughter is contagious!!!! NICE!!!!!
I lOVE ❤️ your Laugh 😂!
The husband of my friend was so overwhelmed with all the plants inside their home... he said to my friend "get a monkey dear" 😂😂😂
Ouch
„Overwhelmed” with all the plants” - seriuosly? Maybe she just needs….a new husband?
The genuine cackle is always my absolute favorite!
Bro I love your energy. Like stumbling across your channel has been one of the best things to happen this week. And here I was jus looking foe for UA-cam videos on caring for sheer curtains lol.
Love your channel, u seem to dope to chill wit bruh. And ur advice is so smart and practical.
Your video has been the highlight of my day. I am loving your laugh. Your opinions are fun and energetic.
“Bitch, your name better be Holly or Happy or Hootie Hootie Hoo” ^proceeds to crack self up^ LOVE YOU Arvin!
Me too
He tickles himself and it’s so adorable.
“ Billie , Jean , Sally Sue you thought wrong” . Hehe 😜 You choked me up with the dupe blankets . 🤣 I’m going to stop decorating with two colors . Guilty🥴 Good stuff Arvin , I love it 🥰
I am too. Lol. I thought that's what I was supposed to. Oops
