    This is amazing! Quick tip when you're hanging curtain rings 12:55. Hang one ring on the OUTSIDE of the support so it sits next to the finial which is the screw in part at the end. This makes your curtains look like there is more fabric to cover the rods, makes the overall look more finished, and best of all when you're closing the curtains they never pull away from the sides so you never have to go back and futz with them. You can dramatically sweep your curtains closed - voila! - and the ends will stay in place. It's fantastic. Also I'm going to go paint all my window frames black now thank you. Between you and McKenna I'm convinced!

    I love it. Just a little advice.. about the coffee table, I think the reason why it's not feeling perfect is because there is to much rectangle shapes. The windows,couch, pictures frames, pillows,TV are all squares or rectangles
    The coffee table needs to be an odd shape. And then I like you would love it much more. I'm thinking like a soft triangle shape with round edges,like u had it one of ur past videos, I think it would make a huge difference. But regardless its stunning n as long as ur happy that's all that matters. Xox

      I've been obsessed with painting my window frames black for years but I was in an apartment but now that I'm finally in a place where I can paint and decorate again (oh, how I missed having a place that was my own!) I remember thinking, "oh, the first thing I'm doing is painting the windows black and they're gonna look so elegant.." but, these are not that kind of window at all. This place was built in 96 (by some people that really didn't give a damn but that's another story) & these windows are the double hung type (I think that's what its called) with one vinyl grid in between two pieces of glass to give the appearance of window panes. The only good thing is how easy it is to clean them as they tilt in but I would love to at least pull the grid out for just a solid glass window but it's they don't come out. What i love about the black paint with your windows is the way they look with the vertical opening ... almost like French doors. It's a great look and so chic. It's got a European look to me (like I would know) and it was absolutely the right decision. I just love all you've done.
      That was a tough call with the sideboard because you made the other one but you made it work. I swear I see a new sideboard or more chairs I want every day but I really purged this time and I'm trying to be good because it's such a great feeling when everything is well thought out and deliberate in every way to create your own little paradise.
      Your dance wasn't over the top. It was exactly what you should be feeling. Your vision was coming alive and that's awesome. I can't wait to go see all of your videos of how this came to be. I haven't been able to escape popcorn ceilings and I'm hoping you were able to go over them for that look because it's fantastic and I'm not about to scrape popcorn... no way. I've heard nightmares. Thanks for your enthusiasm and sorry this was so long but I shut to do like 6 things I've seen before the days up. 😆

    This looks great! However, I would love to see you do either a digital or sketched version of how you would have made it work with the furniture you already had. Most of us at home trying to do room makeovers don’t have the option of just replacing every single piece of furniture in a room. So, if you were stuck with your old couch, your old coffee table, and the media console you made, what would you have done?

    I'm glad you changed out the coffee table. I kept thinking "hmm., leaving that might be a mistake..." I think you could go with a round one later if you wanted. The basket one was probably inexpensive, so if someday you fall in love with something else, it's not a big deal to change out. That is a GORGEOUS room.

I'm planning on moving in around the first of the year and wanted to find ways to add pops of modern to go with the rustic wooden beams, stone, antiques, etc. Painting the windows will make such a difference in the space, so thank you so much for the idea.

    Drew, when you hang curtains with rings allow one ring closest to the finial to rest on the outside of the bracket. It will prevent the outside edge of the curtain from being pulled to the center when you pull your curtains closed. The curtain bracket will stop it from moving.

    I feel like a round coffee table would be so perfect in the space and enhance the cozy vibes of that amazing sectional, but the basket is super cute too and functional. And the top of that bookcase would be the perfect spot for a beautiful trailing plant. Heart eyes at everything!

    I think your design dilemma with coffee table could be solved with a round table, that's back or a deeper blueish color or something from the rug.

      Agree about pooling curtains looking great. But if the fabric is not washable those bottoms are going to get pretty dirty fast...then what?

    • @foxwolft9332
      @foxwolft9332 3 роки тому +1

      @@seagal-1 usually when they say not washable they mean washing machine. You can hand wash them and be as gentle as possible and use dye free soaps and stuff (and cold water to help not set stains) then let them air dry if you really want the look. Also, unless you have pets or live in a super dusty area, if you vacuum your house every week your curtains shouldn't be getting that dirty.

      While I absolutely understand trading furniture etc. for the exposure/advertising it brings to the company, it does make it difficult if someone wants to create a similar style but cannot afford such a high end purchase. Perhaps for at least a few areas of the room you could give diy options for a similar look. Couch slipcovers for example. Just a thought.

But there's such a gap in the market for what you do - stunning interior design on a budget with houses that most of us actually live in (rather than the beautiful but completely aspiration McGee projects). This makeover is just stunning - you keep outdoing yourself with every makeover video. Will you be doing anymore virtual makeovers?

Looks so good, everyone loves it, no banging legs against the corners and still enough surface space on the tables. 😁
