So true! We’ve been in our house a year and I’ve been furnishing it since then. Luckily my husband and I only budget once a month, so I usually have to wait a month before being able to buy decor. This seems super annoying, but I’ve avoided so many purchases that would’ve ended up being mistakes

The trend of the stenciled phrases on walls makes me think of the 80s trend of the border wallpaper that was EVERYWHERE. No other wallpaper but just a border of farm animals or other kitschy imagery.

My husband and I are Gen X and we had a waterbed in our first apartment. It was given to us second hand by a boomer 😂. The best part about a waterbed was that when my husband snored and kept me up I could do an undulating move that created a wave across the mattress that would then wake him up for a second and stop the snoring 🤣🤣🤣
LOL. I am a Boomer. I had a waterbed, but not right away, because I didn't have two dimes to rub together. First I saw them was in the later 1960's. So believe me they were new to us then, and so we started it. Now if Gen Xer's took it up, that's fine, but waterbeds came before Gen-X was born. That's all I am saying. As to the bed itself, they were a novelty, a fad, they were unique and cool, just like us.;-) But it only took about a year before we tossed them out for a real bed. Yes, they swished, and for me gave me a back ache. They were cold, and known from time to time to leak. Sleeping with another person made you sea sick. Yes, a terrible idea.
@@cellgrrl We bought a waterbed in 1988, on layaway. Ha! We opted for the motionless type, less sloshing around. It did require regular maintenance (adding some blue liquid solution) to prevent the water logged foam from growing mold and mildew. The worst part of it was when we moved... omg! We had to rent a small pump to empty it, which never fully removed all the water because the foam retained water. Then we had to 'fold it" and carry it out. It was a nightmare. After a few years, we got rid of it. Not surprisingly, no one wanted it.
I went to a single lady friend's new home party last weekend. She's so very proud of her remodeling - just how she loves it, and you always say if you love it, keep it!!! Three bright accent walls, and vinyl stencil inspo sayings EVERYWHERE! I played a game while there looking through the house, and I didn't find a single spot on the main floor I could stand where a saying wasn't visible. Usually it was two or three. I thought of Nick, and laughed all the way home.
I have to admit that I just painted an accent wall in my office for my business. I painted it a dark blue/peacock blue because I didn't want the sky blue that was part of my business colors so I found the closest blue and went to the darkest shade on the swatch. It is meant to be the focal point of the room because that is where my workstation is and I use it as a backdrop for photos. I feel slightly embarrassed that I did it but it does make me happy and I love it every time I see it.
Then you did it exactly right by not making it random. As he said, if there's a reason it can be good. But honestly, I don't even fully agree with that. Sometimes I think it's just nice to open a door and see something else than just white, even if it seems like I painted a random wall. Colour just makes everything feel much cozier and welcoming, even if it is a little bit random.
Own it, lovey. Your home is your castle, and if you are sufficiently brave to choose your own decor and feel comfy as a result, well done, you. Don't lose your uniqueness.
I think accent walls are fine and I’m glad you love yours! I’m going to paint one in my house to make the hallway seem bigger. I think it’s all about doing something that works for the space vs following a trend just to do the trend
My stencil text in my kitchen says "welcome to my kitchen. Many have eaten here, few have died." 😂 maybe its not the best design choice but the smirk it brings me every time I remember its there is worth it.
These videos are the grown-up version of Saturday morning cartoons. I'm going to laugh, going to be in a great mood afterwards, and I look forward to it all week. The fact that I actually learn some things sometimes is just a bonus. Thanks, Nick!
I'm a Gen x who bought a house from a boomer. They left the FULLY-FILLED water bed in one of the bedrooms. Helpfully, they also left the original manual of how to empty and dismantle it. I sold it to a gen-z couple who were SO.EXCITED. to get it. In 2023!
Millennial(ancient) I miss my waterbed...I didn't think I would, I had one since I was in Kindergarten right through college(at home obviously not in the dorms, dorms was a futon) but after the plywood boards broke and I just didn't get them replaced... fast forward a decade later, I miss it. warm and toasty in winter, crank that heater to 100, summer and hot, unplug it and the bed is COLD and lovely. If I could find somewhere around here to buy one, I'd buy one again. waveless mattress helps, and if you have the bed properly filled its comfy and no it doesn't slosh noises at night.
@@KJ-xx6xr I'm a millennial as well and I still want a waterbed! My parents had one, they were baby boomers and had me and my other siblings when they were older, but that waterbed was gifted to them. They didn't go out and buy it themselves. But when it was filled, I didn't like it because it DIDN'T slosh around! It was very stable and not like what I was expecting at all! I was so disappointed! But I still want one of those that slosh around! My parents don't have their's anymore, they upgraded to an actual bed a long time ago! I think they got rid of that bed rather quickly tbh.
When I was a teenager, I managed to convince my parents to paint my bedroom burgundy because we had a burgundy accent wall in the dining room, so I argued the color wouldn’t clash with the whole house aesthetic. I still love it 10 years later.
I think you should have your own show! I love your channel, but I mainly watch you because you are hilarious!!! Do I follow your design advice??? Sometimes, but you are so incredibly funny!!! And honest!!!
OH Nick! Had to pause this to tell you this story. It was the early 2000's and one of the girls I worked with came in for her shift totally devastated, just ugly crying so hard she could barely talk. We collectively started firing off questions "Omg!? Are you OK? Did someone die? Did your husband cheat on you? Did he gamble all your money? Did YOU gamble all your money?" (We worked in a Vegas casino) Finally she gets out "I" (sniffle) "I" (Sob) "I painted my couch!" (We all stood shocked) " You know like Hildy did but it dried all crusty and it's just flaking off everywhere and my husband is SO MAD!" "He yelled and said I did it on purpose and I have to live with the couch" I bet Trading Spaces got a lot of people into trouble!
OK Nick I love your channel but this was one of my FAVORITE videos. “Humans spent thousands of years trying to get inside, why would I want to go back outside”? Priceless.
Somewhere between the stupid of the waterbed and the crazy of inflatable furniture lies the inevitable "Bean Bag" chair (usually saggy and stained, in balding brown corduroy).
I’m not gonna lie, the tirade Nick went on when he started talking about the plastic furniture was amazing. The indignation and disgust was radiating off the screen and I found it hilarious. Clearly this is something that he’s thought about a lot. 😂
@@tinywalnut6337 My aunt had one of those stencil parties and my mom bought that saying. She put it above their bed too. After both of my parents died we sold their house in 2014 so I bet that was the first thing the new owners took down.
signs that have removable letters. I want to change the order of the letters to make snarky comments, at someone else's place when they aren't looking :D
Had a friend in the '80s who had a water bed with a small leak. They emptied it and moved it to the backyard and proceed to fill it to find the leak. Then they went back inside and forgot about it. This was August in Phoenix. The heat allowed the plastic to stretch. I guarantee you have never ever seen a water bed that huge LOL!! They got a regular bed.
😂, when you mentioned Hilde from “Trading Spaces” as a possible person to blame for the bright paint accent wall, I just lost it. I remember her for her design choice of stapling faux 3D flowers all over some poor unsuspecting person’s BATHROOM WALLS in that show. What a nightmare rehabbing that room would be. I thought, “That woman is no designer; she’s a snob and a sadist.” Later I saw that while she destroyed rooms in that show with garrish garbage, she had her own “all white” Paris apartment. No excuses for that kind of abuse!
Is Hilda still working as an interior home designer these days? Sounds like she should be sued for all the damages she's done to interior homes (epoxy, stapling directly to the wall, sand in the house, etc.) but I guess Trading Spaces had the homeowners sign a liability contract to not sue the show or designer.
I always loved when Hildi was on the show! She was a troublemaker. Also, on occasion her designs looked really slick, but I think most of her energy went into trolling people.
The original sin to the bright accent wall in my opinion was one flowered wallpaper wall with stripes on the rest. Just found this channel and you’re awesome!
Hey Nick, I love your channel and attitudes on style. I have a waterbed story for you. I'm a boomer who married a guy in 1990, and he owned a king-size waterbed. It reminded him of camping on the boat. That was until we added me sleeping on it too which caused him to wake up every time I moved. I didn't sleep any better. He adored that bed, but it took two years before he was convinced we needed a real bed. One thing that helped him let go of it was when I suggested the hardwood frame was perfect for raised garden boxes for our veggie garden. So that is how our waterbed became a garden bed and made room for us to buy a real bed. Hardwood lasts several years in a garden, so it was a big win for us. I learned later that the heater mat for the bed would have made a great seedling mat for growing our own plant starts. I That helped him a lot being able to reuse it somehow.
GenX here. My hs/college boyfriend had a waterbed. So did a childhood friend's parents. That one was how I learned that if you have satin sheets on the bed, you can't keep the pillows on, because any movement would make the pillows go shooting off the bed. Also: elementary-grade children will definitely put holes in a waterbed mattress while treating it like an amusement park ride.
Nick, I love when you talk about things you hate - it’s always hilarious! Can you do one on room accessories? Example (that I hate): macrame hanging plant holders! 😑
I am a GenX and firmly believe that the reason our parents made the decorating choices of the 70s was because of how much LSD they were doing in the 60s. There can not be another reason for so many horrible fashions/colour combos/overall weirdness of that decade.
I'm a zoomer so maybe my idea of 70's interior is off, but I actually quite like it. It looks mildly unhinged and I can appreciate that, including the round beds
My parents didn't use LSD as far as I know. It was the style at the time. They ordered a zigzag patterned couch and then an orange plaid. I once referred to to hideous nubby orange as ugly and dad seemed confused.
My BIL’s parents had a water bed. They forgot they were re-filling it once and the water bed stretched to like three feet high before it finally popped and flooded the house. They discovered it right before it popped and they were all crowded around the bed trying to plug the holes with their hands while my sis was running outside to turn off the hose😂. They all got soaked when it went *pop*
This is the first video of yours I've seen, and you had me hooked in the first minute! Your sarcasm and spot-on analysis touched my heart. 😂 You have a new subscriber. Thank you for the laughs!
the bright colour accent wall is VERY 2000's TLC. Trading Spaces, the BBC ones, they were ALL about that accent wall. Tho, as a Gen-X-er, I remember the rag rolled walls and so much wallpaper. Great video 😂❤
Boomer here- my PARENTS had a waterbed in the 1970s, as did many of their friends. The cats loved the warm smooshy nest it made- they would crawl under the bedspread and sink in. Once my mom tossed her briefcase on the bed and hit the hidden cat. No harm done, thanks to the smooshy 'mattress'.
I’m wondering whether the waterbed phenomenon trended later in Canada, because I’m an early GenXer American - and absolutely NONE of my friends had waterbeds, but know many of their parents did. Honestly, by the time we were setting up our own households, you didn’t even see waterbeds in furniture showrooms. I’m trying to imagine how a waterbed would fit into the two prevailing design trends of the 80s: The conservative Dark Wood Traditional and the sleek Miami Vice Modern - and just don’t see it….
@@jenniferlynn3537Maybe it is a Canadian thing. Of all my Gen X friends in the UK no one had a waterbed!! We kind of thought of it as a really tacky 70s/80s movie thing. Maybe a bit creepy 😂 In the early 90s we were in cheap rented accommodation - our mattress was an old horsehair one 😮 We bought our first new mattress in 1995 - a basic very firm orthopedic because we thought it was healthier (even though we were in our twenties).
What is a Saturday morning without a good rant about dumb interior design trends? Good advice about your personal financial security. Really important.
OMG Nick - I just love your videos.... not just commenting on this one but I have watched so many and I just LOVE how authentic you are... and fun. You have amazing energy and we need more people like you in this world. I absolutely love learning from you! Thank you for your unfiltered design advise and wisdom. So absolutely valued!!!!
We live in an age of housing insecurity, and paycheck to paycheck normalcy. It makes sense to choose designs that are cheap and easy to diy (such as an accent wall). It makes sense to buy furniture you can easily take home on a crowded bus, and carry upstairs, at no extra cost. And it makes sense to choose fun, bright, and inspirational looks over muted ones. Because all of that is what we need right now.
I get it... but also, no. I'd rather wait a bit longer and have something that makes me feel a little better than be surrounded by obvious reminders of my being depressed and broken and living in this age. I need quiet and peace and decent design can help give me that. (i have a ton of ikea stuff though, i don't have issues with that.) A muted look can also be fun and inspirational, whereas a bright lime green/neon pink/orange wall just gives me anxiety. So it really depends
I love this. I bought a house built in 1990 and the main bedroom had blue sponge painting. After lots of sanding and spackling I finally had to pay $800.00 to have the walls professionally skim coated as nothing else gave me a smooth finish. I curse the former owners!
As a boomer, I love your channel. You have great advice, a comfortable voice to listen to, and I love when you say people are wrong when they disagree with you.
Too obvious :) Any of these other things, we might conceivably be suckered into them, but never carpet in the bathroom. Now excuse me while I'll go and stencil "Eat up you ingrates" on the dining room accent wall.
My mom is 87 and she STILL swears by her water bed, mostly for the warmth and comfort. She claims she can't sleep on a regular mattress, but i guess if she's had a waterbed for (🤔2024-1977)=almost 50 years, then more power to her.
@@07ikkin Try a Foster and Stearns mattress and you will sleep all night with support and comfort. I paid around 5000 on a sale price from Macys. The BEST mattress ever and made in the USA.
Yes! To all of it…especially the vinyl stickers. I had them on a wall in a rental and when I removed them they left a shadow on the wall… which I tried to paint over and it STILL showed through! I love your comment “you don’t have to agree with me”… it reminded me of what I love to say, “ I could agree with you, but then we’d both be wrong”!! 😂😂❤❤
I know everyone has to act cheerful on those home renovation shows, but I would have cried if I found out Hildy was going to decorate any room in my house. I don't know if that was on purpose (because drama!), but it was awful every single time. Not even just not my taste; it was just flat out bad.
My impression of Hildi is that she always wanted to make a sort of "art exhibit" out of each room, and totally ignored /didn't care what the home-owners wanted. It was about her, and showcasing her "talent".
I remember watching a home show where the reno was so bad that the wife had to leave the room and the husband just stood there in shock while the host tried to salvage the situation with no success. The place was worse than the original. Just awful.
Oh my gosh that very first waterbed you showed, gave me PTSD 1980 nightmares. I have one to add. Bungee cord chairs, especially the bungee cord office chair for home offices.
The only time a round bed ever worked was the wonderfully whacked out episode of Mary Tyler Moore when everyone was treated to SueAnn Niven's over the top bordello, I mean bedroom which featured a vibrating round bed...with a mirrored cieling... The best part of the episode was at the end when Mary found herself alone, got on the bed, turned on the vibration and you could tell that laugh was totally genuine.
Another problem with waterbeds is the potential for damage- either from the weight (on a floor that was not built to support it), or water damage from a serious leak.
I made an accent wall, lol. During covid I put half a dozen bags worth of joint compound on one wall, mixed with cement dye, and painstakingly carved realistic old bricks out of it. The room looks more interesting now, and oddly, bigger too!
The waterbeds bring back lots of happy boomer memories for me. I'm gonna leave it at that! Even though they were kind of stupid, I look back on them very fondly.
Growing up, my older cousin had a water bed (he’s about 40 now) and when we would go to their house we would all go visit the waterbed like it was a family member.. we would all go look at it and sit on it 😂 I loved that thing so much (it popped while they were on vacation one year and made a massive mess)
I’m a Boomer. Had a waterbed and loved it! But, it had baffles inside so the water didn’t slosh around, had a quilted cover so it looked like a regular mattress, and looked like a regular bed when made up. Sure, you had to use water conditioner so it wouldn’t get moldy inside, and needed a heater so the bed would be a comfortable temperature. Emptied with a hose into the bathtub. So comfortable! You were cradled-no tossing and turning. It was great.
Those improvements came along later, but late '60's and during most of the '70's they were all the craze and terrible. Only reason they caught on was because we were very young then, our bodies could take it. By the time we hit 30, we were beginning to get hints that aging was on the way.
We had a waterbed in the 80's with baffles, was the most comfy thing ever. I remember going away for the night when I was pregnant and sleeping on a normal bed, it was torture, no support at all. On really hot nights you'd turn the heater off and it would keep you cool all night. I'd probably think about buying another one if you could still get them.
I had one without the baffles - well "we" since I was married at the time. It was the best bed for sleeping while pregnant!! It was comfy and fun, too. We would take turns flopping onto the mattress so the wave would push the other out of the bed. Hahaha!! Good memories!
The first wood waterbed is the exact same as the one my parents had when I was little! I LOVED jumping on it! They did not love that for me 😅. My dad said it hurt your back to sleep in and leaks were a nightmare. I guess you had to patch it like patching a bike tire or something. We still have it at the cottage with a regular mattress in the frame, no need to put it in the landfill 😂
@@donnadebrodt1778 yes that was Hilda and she filled a room with sand also and I think I’m not sure if it was the sand room or a different one if she fashion furniture upside down on the ceiling.
Waterbeds weigh a ton, too! I recall a lease agreement I signed back in the early 90’s that had “NO WATER BEDS!!” written on it. New England has 3-story homes/apts everywhere and most are old as f. Weight is an issue.
I toured the house of a real estate developer once, three of the bedrooms had round beds. It was like Miami Vice, if you're old enough to remember that show.
Good morning, Nick! (raised coffee cup to you) ☺️ My best friend's sister still has a waterbed. She just moved into her new home and had to drain and refill it. Imagine my surprise to find they still do exist.
😂😂 Nick, I ❤ your wit and unapologetic perspectives on life and, well, everything. You are such a fab vibe, and I hope you never change. Just a world treasure.
Our blind infant son enjoyed the waterbed (with proper supervision) and listening to old Donovan songs. That grin and giggle are a priceless memory. Funny…he’s now 37 and not a huge fan of water…water slides? Yes. Swimming not so much.
Waterbeds are also widely used in homes for the severe mentally disabled (at least in my country), exactly for the same reason. Not to sleep in, but to give these people a sensory experience that most really love. It's often combined with soft music, and/or a light projector for kids (or both depending on how overwhelming it gets). Although a horrible interior design idea, it's proven to be a great treat for many.
Does my little sign that reads: 'Chocolate: it's not just for breakfast anymore' count as tacky? I just have it up in the kitchen because it makes me smile, lol.

“Humans spent thousands of years trying to get indoors…” I too hate camping (unless it’s in a hotel, but I’m told that doesn’t count as camping… ) I needed this quite in my life. Actually, I need it on a wall, I should find a cursive stencil of it 😂
Love that the bright orange accent wall with the off-yellow surrounding walls photo came up. This is literally what i am painting out from the previous owners this weekend. Extra motivation to get off the couch and get painting 😊
Ok, so we had his wall full of quotes made out of stickers in the coffew room at my job. When they fired me because I dared to say aloud that they are not conducting their company properly (lying to the employees, buying cheap equipment that broke right away, expecting crazy overtime, ILLEGAL TRANSFERING OF GOODS BETWEEN COUNTRIES) I went to the wall and scraped some of the letter so a part of it basically said "I like to eat people" :D No one noticed for weeks.
H.ahahaha “At least a sign, you can put that up, and then taken a look back, and go, ‘I made an error . . . .’” This killed me. Love your channel so much. I’m learning a lot and you’re fun to listen to.

These videos are the grown-up version of Saturday morning cartoons. I'm going to laugh, going to be in a great mood afterwards, and I look forward to it all week. The fact that I actually learn some things sometimes is just a bonus. Thanks, Nick!
Yes, same here! 😂
Nick-a-lodian
Remember “Fat Albert”? Bill would say, “. . . And if you’re not careful, you might just learn something!”
I seriously love these
100% agree!!
Yes, Five Things Nick Hates This Week would be a great series of videos! Go for it. You make me laugh, and I need that these days!
I'm a Gen x who bought a house from a boomer. They left the FULLY-FILLED water bed in one of the bedrooms. Helpfully, they also left the original manual of how to empty and dismantle it. I sold it to a gen-z couple who were SO.EXCITED. to get it. In 2023!
Boomer here - they were awful from the very beginning. Ugh. Apologies!
Millennial(ancient) I miss my waterbed...I didn't think I would, I had one since I was in Kindergarten right through college(at home obviously not in the dorms, dorms was a futon) but after the plywood boards broke and I just didn't get them replaced... fast forward a decade later, I miss it. warm and toasty in winter, crank that heater to 100, summer and hot, unplug it and the bed is COLD and lovely. If I could find somewhere around here to buy one, I'd buy one again. waveless mattress helps, and if you have the bed properly filled its comfy and no it doesn't slosh noises at night.
Should I buy stupid stuff for pennies and wait to sell to Gen Alpha to pay for my retirement?
@@KJ-xx6xr I'm a millennial as well and I still want a waterbed! My parents had one, they were baby boomers and had me and my other siblings when they were older, but that waterbed was gifted to them. They didn't go out and buy it themselves. But when it was filled, I didn't like it because it DIDN'T slosh around! It was very stable and not like what I was expecting at all! I was so disappointed! But I still want one of those that slosh around! My parents don't have their's anymore, they upgraded to an actual bed a long time ago! I think they got rid of that bed rather quickly tbh.
@@wintermoon7003 I loved mine, my kid still wants one!
When I was a teenager, I managed to convince my parents to paint my bedroom burgundy because we had a burgundy accent wall in the dining room, so I argued the color wouldn’t clash with the whole house aesthetic. I still love it 10 years later.
I loved those photos he showed of accent walls. I see nothing wrong with them.
The paint cartells... I just can't 🤣 I'm all in for a "5 things Nick hates this week" series by the way...
I think you should have your own show! I love your channel, but I mainly watch you because you are hilarious!!! Do I follow your design advice??? Sometimes, but you are so incredibly funny!!! And honest!!!
OH Nick! Had to pause this to tell you this story. It was the early 2000's and one of the girls I worked with came in for her shift totally devastated, just ugly crying so hard she could barely talk. We collectively started firing off questions "Omg!? Are you OK? Did someone die? Did your husband cheat on you? Did he gamble all your money? Did YOU gamble all your money?" (We worked in a Vegas casino) Finally she gets out "I" (sniffle) "I" (Sob) "I painted my couch!" (We all stood shocked) " You know like Hildy did but it dried all crusty and it's just flaking off everywhere and my husband is SO MAD!" "He yelled and said I did it on purpose and I have to live with the couch" I bet Trading Spaces got a lot of people into trouble!
If I came home and my couch was painted, I would be calling a divorce attorney.
@@Nick_Lewis Or a hit man, whichever.🤣
To be fair, I'd have to question if these people ever used paint before in their lives.
The wheat wall she did is burned into my brain forever 😂
Oh dear......
Nick Lewis. You make me so happy sometimes!!
Watching Nick hate things brings me more joy than watching most people love things. Probably because he uses his powers for good!
OK Nick I love your channel but this was one of my FAVORITE videos. “Humans spent thousands of years trying to get inside, why would I want to go back outside”? Priceless.
Water beds were very heavy when filled. Some apartments banned them on any upper floors because the floors/ceilings would cave in under the weight.
Plus they were a nightmare if they sprang a leak. That is a huge volume of water.
I mean… you’re not wrong @5:49. I 100% ripped that accent wall off a year after I installed it. 🫠
Somewhere between the stupid of the waterbed and the crazy of inflatable furniture lies the inevitable "Bean Bag" chair (usually saggy and stained, in balding brown corduroy).
I’m not gonna lie, the tirade Nick went on when he started talking about the plastic furniture was amazing. The indignation and disgust was radiating off the screen and I found it hilarious. Clearly this is something that he’s thought about a lot. 😂
It had everything! Inflatable furniture, camping, teenagers! Chuck the lot out! I'm here for it all, Nick!
I just never thought about inflatable furniture that much. Took one look, thought, “One good dog tooth and that would be done for” and moved on.
We are never sick of hearing you talk about modern farmhouse and awful it is. Please please never stop.
I hate HATE random writing on walls! I have noped out of renting a place just because of that.
My ex bought a house with a stencil in the bedroom that says "always kiss me goodnight." He kept it and it's hilarious.
@@tinywalnut6337 My aunt had one of those stencil parties and my mom bought that saying. She put it above their bed too. After both of my parents died we sold their house in 2014 so I bet that was the first thing the new owners took down.
I'm just here to salute the "noped out" phrase! What a beauty!
signs that have removable letters. I want to change the order of the letters to make snarky comments, at someone else's place when they aren't looking :D
why so jaded? Live, Love, Laugh already 🤣🤣🤣
Had a friend in the '80s who had a water bed with a small leak. They emptied it and moved it to the backyard and proceed to fill it to find the leak. Then they went back inside and forgot about it. This was August in Phoenix. The heat allowed the plastic to stretch. I guarantee you have never ever seen a water bed that huge LOL!! They got a regular bed.
😂, when you mentioned Hilde from “Trading Spaces” as a possible person to blame for the bright paint accent wall, I just lost it. I remember her for her design choice of stapling faux 3D flowers all over some poor unsuspecting person’s BATHROOM WALLS in that show. What a nightmare rehabbing that room would be. I thought, “That woman is no designer; she’s a snob and a sadist.” Later I saw that while she destroyed rooms in that show with garrish garbage, she had her own “all white” Paris apartment. No excuses for that kind of abuse!
Is Hilda still working as an interior home designer these days?
Sounds like she should be sued for all the damages she's done to interior homes (epoxy, stapling directly to the wall, sand in the house, etc.) but I guess Trading Spaces had the homeowners sign a liability contract to not sue the show or designer.
I always loved when Hildi was on the show! She was a troublemaker. Also, on occasion her designs looked really slick, but I think most of her energy went into trolling people.
Wow, I still remember that exact show, what she did was so awful then it's burned into my memory!
Omg, Hilde was the WORST.
The original sin to the bright accent wall in my opinion was one flowered wallpaper wall with stripes on the rest. Just found this channel and you’re awesome!
“No one is joining you in that bed!” OMG!!! 😂😂😂
"Camping sucks!" Oh Nick, I second that! I like my creature-comforts! Love your wit! You poke fun but are never mean. Adore you!
Hey Nick, I love your channel and attitudes on style. I have a waterbed story for you.
I'm a boomer who married a guy in 1990, and he owned a king-size waterbed. It reminded him of camping on the boat. That was until we added me sleeping on it too which caused him to wake up every time I moved. I didn't sleep any better. He adored that bed, but it took two years before he was convinced we needed a real bed. One thing that helped him let go of it was when I suggested the hardwood frame was perfect for raised garden boxes for our veggie garden. So that is how our waterbed became a garden bed and made room for us to buy a real bed. Hardwood lasts several years in a garden, so it was a big win for us. I learned later that the heater mat for the bed would have made a great seedling mat for growing our own plant starts. I
That helped him a lot being able to reuse it somehow.
The water beds we love never really leave us . . . 😢
😂@@llamasugar5478
Love it. A much better use for a waterbed than sleeping on it.
GenX here. My hs/college boyfriend had a waterbed. So did a childhood friend's parents. That one was how I learned that if you have satin sheets on the bed, you can't keep the pillows on, because any movement would make the pillows go shooting off the bed. Also: elementary-grade children will definitely put holes in a waterbed mattress while treating it like an amusement park ride.
If you want to create a series of the 5 things you hate this week, I am here for it. I thoroughly enjoyed this one. 😊
That stencil saying: Everyone brings joys to this house, some as they enter & others as they leave
I just can't 😂
This video wrapped me in such a warm and comfy “snark”blanket. It is now my favorite thing of the week. You are an absolute treasure
Nick, I love when you talk about things you hate - it’s always hilarious! Can you do one on room accessories? Example (that I hate): macrame hanging plant holders! 😑
I am a GenX and firmly believe that the reason our parents made the decorating choices of the 70s was because of how much LSD they were doing in the 60s. There can not be another reason for so many horrible fashions/colour combos/overall weirdness of that decade.
I was thinking the same! When he asked the question I answered out loud "it was the D_rug$ from the 60's coming through....
I'm a zoomer so maybe my idea of 70's interior is off, but I actually quite like it. It looks mildly unhinged and I can appreciate that, including the round beds
Yep, anything orange should've been in the trash
LSD in the 60's? Are we not still in the 60's? Hold on, my purple Unicorn's peed in the corner again, man. 🥳 ✌ peace man 🦄🦄🦄
My parents didn't use LSD as far as I know. It was the style at the time. They ordered a zigzag patterned couch and then an orange plaid. I once referred to to hideous nubby orange as ugly and dad seemed confused.
“Camping sucks” 😂😂😂😂 so relatable
My BIL’s parents had a water bed. They forgot they were re-filling it once and the water bed stretched to like three feet high before it finally popped and flooded the house. They discovered it right before it popped and they were all crowded around the bed trying to plug the holes with their hands while my sis was running outside to turn off the hose😂. They all got soaked when it went *pop*
😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🫣🫣🫣🤣🤣
Congratulations on your 600k subs! More and more people are loving your straightforward rants and no holds barred interior design advice. 😁
So happy you got a house. Looking forward to those design updates.
This is the first video of yours I've seen, and you had me hooked in the first minute! Your sarcasm and spot-on analysis touched my heart. 😂 You have a new subscriber. Thank you for the laughs!
I'm gagged that the algorithm showed me an ad about a barn door on a Nick video. The nerve lol
the bright colour accent wall is VERY 2000's TLC. Trading Spaces, the BBC ones, they were ALL about that accent wall. Tho, as a Gen-X-er, I remember the rag rolled walls and so much wallpaper. Great video 😂❤
Boomer here- my PARENTS had a waterbed in the 1970s, as did many of their friends. The cats loved the warm smooshy nest it made- they would crawl under the bedspread and sink in. Once my mom tossed her briefcase on the bed and hit the hidden cat. No harm done, thanks to the smooshy 'mattress'.
I’m wondering whether the waterbed phenomenon trended later in Canada, because I’m an early GenXer American - and absolutely NONE of my friends had waterbeds, but know many of their parents did.
Honestly, by the time we were setting up our own households, you didn’t even see waterbeds in furniture showrooms. I’m trying to imagine how a waterbed would fit into the two prevailing design trends of the 80s: The conservative Dark Wood Traditional and the sleek Miami Vice Modern - and just don’t see it….
@@jenniferlynn3537Maybe it is a Canadian thing. Of all my Gen X friends in the UK no one had a waterbed!! We kind of thought of it as a really tacky 70s/80s movie thing. Maybe a bit creepy 😂 In the early 90s we were in cheap rented accommodation - our mattress was an old horsehair one 😮 We bought our first new mattress in 1995 - a basic very firm orthopedic because we thought it was healthier (even though we were in our twenties).
‘Kitten on water bed’ is a *great* UA-cam video….
@@jenniferlynn3537Maybe that’s what it is. I don’t remember ANY waterbeds that survived the late ‘80s and definitely none into the ‘90s.
my parents had a water bed in the 90s, gen Xers. incredibly unfashionable though, so it makes sense
I would add to your list: swag light fixtures, sunken living rooms, rag painted walls, and wallpaper borders
What is a Saturday morning without a good rant about dumb interior design trends?
Good advice about your personal financial security. Really important.
OMG Nick - I just love your videos.... not just commenting on this one but I have watched so many and I just LOVE how authentic you are... and fun. You have amazing energy and we need more people like you in this world. I absolutely love learning from you! Thank you for your unfiltered design advise and wisdom. So absolutely valued!!!!
Hold onto that Home Goods receipt - Words of Wisdom with Nick
We live in an age of housing insecurity, and paycheck to paycheck normalcy. It makes sense to choose designs that are cheap and easy to diy (such as an accent wall). It makes sense to buy furniture you can easily take home on a crowded bus, and carry upstairs, at no extra cost. And it makes sense to choose fun, bright, and inspirational looks over muted ones. Because all of that is what we need right now.
I get it... but also, no. I'd rather wait a bit longer and have something that makes me feel a little better than be surrounded by obvious reminders of my being depressed and broken and living in this age. I need quiet and peace and decent design can help give me that. (i have a ton of ikea stuff though, i don't have issues with that.) A muted look can also be fun and inspirational, whereas a bright lime green/neon pink/orange wall just gives me anxiety. So it really depends
Love the video! You should talk about sponge wall painting that was popular in the 90s
I love this. I bought a house built in 1990 and the main bedroom had blue sponge painting. After lots of sanding and spackling I finally had to pay $800.00 to have the walls professionally skim coated as nothing else gave me a smooth finish. I curse the former owners!
YES this SHOULD be a series!! This may be one of my favorite videos of yours.
Love my Saturday morning snarky Nick! Starts my day off with a smile!
As a boomer, I love your channel. You have great advice, a comfortable voice to listen to, and I love when you say people are wrong when they disagree with you.
How did "carpet in the bathroom" not make the cut?!
Too obvious :) Any of these other things, we might conceivably be suckered into them, but never carpet in the bathroom.
Now excuse me while I'll go and stencil "Eat up you ingrates" on the dining room accent wall.
It's not a decorating trend.
Or carpet in the kitchen because it’s easier to vacuum than mop. Yikes!
He already covered it multiple times in the past. He'll bring it up again. 😂
@@kathleenmathews6096 Our house had carpet in the kitchen when we moved into it. It was a science project. Yuck! We removed it as soon as possible.
This ABSOLUTELY has series potential. Thank you for the laugh...I needed it today!
My mom is 87 and she STILL swears by her water bed, mostly for the warmth and comfort. She claims she can't sleep on a regular mattress, but i guess if she's had a waterbed for (🤔2024-1977)=almost 50 years, then more power to her.
At least it's been spared from the landfill all that time.
Maybe that's what I need then.
I bought a new mattress 3 months ago and I still don't sleep well
@@07ikkin Try a Foster and Stearns mattress and you will sleep all night with support and comfort. I paid around 5000 on a sale price from Macys. The BEST mattress ever and made in the USA.
I'm surprised she doesn't have difficulty getting out of the water bed.
Wow wee, it never leaked on her in 50 years? Amazing!
Yes! To all of it…especially the vinyl stickers. I had them on a wall in a rental and when I removed them they left a shadow on the wall… which I tried to paint over and it STILL showed through! I love your comment “you don’t have to agree with me”… it reminded me of what I love to say, “ I could agree with you, but then we’d both be wrong”!! 😂😂❤❤
"You don't have to agree with everything I say... you're wrong, but you don't have to" 😂😂😂
Waterbeds got their start in the early 70s. They went so well with the Indian cotton bedspreads and homemade macrame wall hangings.
Yep! I had all 3, 1970s in California. I still have the bedspread from "Cost Plus" in San Francisco.
I know everyone has to act cheerful on those home renovation shows, but I would have cried if I found out Hildy was going to decorate any room in my house. I don't know if that was on purpose (because drama!), but it was awful every single time. Not even just not my taste; it was just flat out bad.
My impression of Hildi is that she always wanted to make a sort of "art exhibit" out of each room, and totally ignored /didn't care what the home-owners wanted. It was about her, and showcasing her "talent".
I remember watching a home show where the reno was so bad that the wife had to leave the room and the husband just stood there in shock while the host tried to salvage the situation with no success. The place was worse than the original. Just awful.
I will never forget the straw on the walls and Hildy telling them just tell the toddler not to pick at it.
She was the worst.
I remember her stapling fake flowers all over the walls in a bedroom.
Oh my gosh that very first waterbed you showed, gave me PTSD 1980 nightmares. I have one to add. Bungee cord chairs, especially the bungee cord office chair for home offices.
The only time a round bed ever worked was the wonderfully whacked out episode of Mary Tyler Moore when everyone was treated to SueAnn Niven's over the top bordello, I mean bedroom which featured a vibrating round bed...with a mirrored cieling... The best part of the episode was at the end when Mary found herself alone, got on the bed, turned on the vibration and you could tell that laugh was totally genuine.
I remember that episode! It was hilarious!
During the X-Files - so very, very 90s! - Mulder had a waterbed. Everyone dragged him for it plus it leaked. Mary Tyler Moore was the best.
You're obviously a Boomer if you're quoting Mary Tyler Moore! Great show, they got away with a lot.
@@wanjina618 You betcha and just remember age, treatchery and experience overcome youth and skill every single time...
Another problem with waterbeds is the potential for damage- either from the weight (on a floor that was not built to support it), or water damage from a serious leak.
Not only great design sense but a naturally funny guy! Love you Nick!
I made an accent wall, lol. During covid I put half a dozen bags worth of joint compound on one wall, mixed with cement dye, and painstakingly carved realistic old bricks out of it. The room looks more interesting now, and oddly, bigger too!
The waterbeds bring back lots of happy boomer memories for me. I'm gonna leave it at that! Even though they were kind of stupid, I look back on them very fondly.
Yes we had one too (boomer here). And moved with it. I was always cold in it!
Yep, another boomer here who had one in the 80s! hahaha!
Another boomer here, we had one when I was pregnant with out first baby. IMPOSSIBLE to get out of. Never again! 🤣
@@mimi5fun No heater?
Yeah, that would not be pleasant.
Growing up, my older cousin had a water bed (he’s about 40 now) and when we would go to their house we would all go visit the waterbed like it was a family member.. we would all go look at it and sit on it 😂 I loved that thing so much (it popped while they were on vacation one year and made a massive mess)
Omg, I love your sense of humor and sarcasm! You should definitely make this into a series if every video would be this cuttingly hilarious 😂
I’m a Boomer. Had a waterbed and loved it! But, it had baffles inside so the water didn’t slosh around, had a quilted cover so it looked like a regular mattress, and looked like a regular bed when made up. Sure, you had to use water conditioner so it wouldn’t get moldy inside, and needed a heater so the bed would be a comfortable temperature. Emptied with a hose into the bathtub. So comfortable! You were cradled-no tossing and turning. It was great.
That's the kind we had too! 😅
Those improvements came along later, but late '60's and during most of the '70's they were all the craze and terrible. Only reason they caught on was because we were very young then, our bodies could take it. By the time we hit 30, we were beginning to get hints that aging was on the way.
We had a waterbed in the 80's with baffles, was the most comfy thing ever. I remember going away for the night when I was pregnant and sleeping on a normal bed, it was torture, no support at all. On really hot nights you'd turn the heater off and it would keep you cool all night. I'd probably think about buying another one if you could still get them.
I had one without the baffles - well "we" since I was married at the time. It was the best bed for sleeping while pregnant!! It was comfy and fun, too. We would take turns flopping onto the mattress so the wave would push the other out of the bed. Hahaha!! Good memories!
@@cellgrrl Yeah, the ones before baffles were ridiculous! They were supposedly good for your romantic life, but I couldn’t see how 😜
The first wood waterbed is the exact same as the one my parents had when I was little! I LOVED jumping on it! They did not love that for me 😅. My dad said it hurt your back to sleep in and leaks were a nightmare. I guess you had to patch it like patching a bike tire or something.
We still have it at the cottage with a regular mattress in the frame, no need to put it in the landfill 😂
This must be a series. We want more!
I’m with you on moving out and the landlord fixing all the broke stuff. Also “Stupidly Round” is my new favorite Nick-ism 😂
Omg that interior designer with awful taste on Trading Spaces! The hay on the walls glued with epoxy 🤢
I think that was the only episode I ever watched of that show. It was the first time watching and the last. lol
Was that Hildy? Was she the one who had that couple glue thousands of fake flowers onto a bathroom wall, too?
@@donnadebrodt1778 yes that was Hilda and she filled a room with sand also and I think I’m not sure if it was the sand room or a different one if she fashion furniture upside down on the ceiling.
@@LynsAlteredArts That sounds absolutely awful. What was she thinking?
I remember that! 😮
You really had a lot of pent up feelings about air chairs. I'm glad you shared it with us 😂
8:28 at least a sign you can take down and say "I made an error" 🤣🤣
Hi Nick, I really enjoy your channel. Your comments are honest and driven by a solid taste. Thank you for your good work! 🌞🎉😉
Oh you snarky man! I look forward to watching these every week.
Waterbeds weigh a ton, too! I recall a lease agreement I signed back in the early 90’s that had “NO WATER BEDS!!” written on it. New England has 3-story homes/apts everywhere and most are old as f. Weight is an issue.
I toured the house of a real estate developer once, three of the bedrooms had round beds. It was like Miami Vice, if you're old enough to remember that show.
I really like the photos he showed with round beds. I wish they still made them.
8:33 "I made an error"
I'm so putting this on a sign and hanging it in my kitchen! 😁
Good morning, Nick! (raised coffee cup to you) ☺️
My best friend's sister still has a waterbed. She just moved into her new home and had to drain and refill it. Imagine my surprise to find they still do exist.
Is it vintage or is there a company still making them?!😮
😂😂 Nick, I ❤ your wit and unapologetic perspectives on life and, well, everything. You are such a fab vibe, and I hope you never change. Just a world treasure.
Our blind infant son enjoyed the waterbed (with proper supervision) and listening to old Donovan songs. That grin and giggle are a priceless memory. Funny…he’s now 37 and not a huge fan of water…water slides? Yes. Swimming not so much.
Waterbeds are also widely used in homes for the severe mentally disabled (at least in my country), exactly for the same reason. Not to sleep in, but to give these people a sensory experience that most really love. It's often combined with soft music, and/or a light projector for kids (or both depending on how overwhelming it gets).
Although a horrible interior design idea, it's proven to be a great treat for many.
Nick's opinion about camping is iconic and I can't agree with it more!
Yes - please make it a series!
I love these videos and I always end up exclaiming YES! for every single thing.
So YES! We need this weekly!!!
Does my little sign that reads: 'Chocolate: it's not just for breakfast anymore' count as tacky? I just have it up in the kitchen because it makes me smile, lol.
If it's the only tacky thing in your home and gives you joy on a daily basis, why bother?
Camping definitely sucks. 😂 I love your blunt honestly, Nick!
You are my favorite youtube designer, you are extremely charming and amusing... your videos are very entertaining... and I learned a lot from you... greetings from Romania
In 1999 we bought a house built in 1970. There were wallpaper accent walls everywhere!
“Humans spent thousands of years trying to get indoors…” I too hate camping (unless it’s in a hotel, but I’m told that doesn’t count as camping… ) I needed this quite in my life. Actually, I need it on a wall, I should find a cursive stencil of it 😂
Agree with each topic. And I got so many good laughs from every one. Thanks & love your sarcastic sense of humor.
Love that the bright orange accent wall with the off-yellow surrounding walls photo came up. This is literally what i am painting out from the previous owners this weekend. Extra motivation to get off the couch and get painting 😊
This is bravery nick! Thank you for being so transparent for your viewers. 💙💙
Ok, so we had his wall full of quotes made out of stickers in the coffew room at my job. When they fired me because I dared to say aloud that they are not conducting their company properly (lying to the employees, buying cheap equipment that broke right away, expecting crazy overtime, ILLEGAL TRANSFERING OF GOODS BETWEEN COUNTRIES) I went to the wall and scraped some of the letter so a part of it basically said "I like to eat people" :D No one noticed for weeks.
H.ahahaha “At least a sign, you can put that up, and then taken a look back, and go, ‘I made an error . . . .’” This killed me. Love your channel so much. I’m learning a lot and you’re fun to listen to.
