I love the tip that you made about the bedroom furniture all matching. It honestly made my feel so much better about not having all the furniture match and thinking more about getting pieces that will be more timeless and probably what I will like more longer, and will be cheaper.
I'm glad for the honesty because a lot of creators put out a video that they know nobody asked for but feel the need to lie to justify it. Bruh just post your video😩
I’m watching this on my bed with a headboard to the ceiling that matches all the rest of my furniture, set against my red tufted paisley accent wall. Thinkin about adding some more print pattern and pillows.
Making my bed every morning makes me really feel good, relaxed and confident. And every time I walk in to that room, or look in as I pass it during the day, I get another spark of joy!
My aunt said or you do nothing else, make your bed, and you will walk in the room feeling less stressed. But also shake everything out to makes less dust mites and also make Friday morning before you go to work bed sheet wash day, if you have a machine. Do it before the weekend so your weekend feels clean and comfy. Waiting until Sunday before work makes a nice work week but Friday makes a nice weekend. Make it about you, not work.

Headboards are so boring now. I appreciate your video but need help because my husband bought a low contemporary bed, and we have traditional home! With high ceilings! I need to create something. Will you help?
Hello Arvin..yes...I make my bed every morning. I think it as a little gift to my future self. When I go to bed- tired to the bone...everything is aligned and calming. It gives me a sense of sanctuary. I make my bed every morning also because it gives me a feeling of a job completed at the start of the day. Great vid. Good advice and love your energy.
Hi Arvin, Billie Jean here, LOL. You have such spot on advice but I was so shocked and then had to laugh so hard that I bought a whole bedroom set. I do love it though and I'm keeping it but I would have done differently if I had seen this video first. (It is pretty though.) I am enjoying you not only for your great pointers but for your humor. You are so enjoyable!
I only committed one of the no-no’s. The pillows on the bed! So, I did the next bed with one long pillow in front of the sleeping pillows and it looked so much better. Plus, making the bed was so much easier! I love the way they mix humor with these tips! ❤
Me too 😅 I went rogue and threw everything away since I divorced, going to move to another home and I have been buying new stuff... Ikea thoo cuz I'm on a budget 🤣
@@camilleliguori7649 This is just depending on the theme of your room And it does take quite a long time But maybe like Cease it into the wall Build a structure (like a second wall) , you ofc can hire someone, and leave a gap between the wall and the structure (it’s hard to explain but like three walls to make like a box around where you want the tv to go) Then it’ll look like it’s integrated into the wall and you can just put a table inside there to hold it up or mount it on the wall, then the cables will be hidden I’m not sure if my explanation makes sense Edit: like a bookcase, or you could get one of those big bookcase tv stand things Or as the person above said yeah you could get a projector, but projectors mainly look good at night/in the dark
Yeah, accent wall is my headboard. I don't have headboard on my bed, don't know why I just don't like it. I would love to hear some design ideas with beds without headboards. And, yeah, I make bed every morning, even if I am late to work. Just a habit . Thank you, mom.
I'm super late to this party but have to say -- loved the video and your energy. Have to say I don't feel the same about the wall-mounted nightstands! I have ones I really love that have a door on the front with space for a book and stuff. Looks good, so much easier to vacuum/mop (wood floors) and makes the room look big. Just my take! Other advice was great!
I always make my bed cause I watch way too much _Investigation Discovery_ and if anything criminally bad ever happens to me, when the detectives come to my house, I don’t want them to think I lived ratchetly😂😂😂😂
I’m SO glad you said this about accent walls because I repainted my bedroom last weekend and I refused to do an accent wall and painted all the walls sage green and I love it!
I really appreciate that this wasn't just a video shitting on things. I like that you gave thoughtful reasons for your list and alternatives and that you weren't super rude and uppity either.
My mom literally just bought the bedroom set you showed 😂 my mom is the queen of matching you will not break her and she hates shopping. Growing up with sets makes me hate to buy matching anything. I love the look of anything eclectic but with a theme if that makes sense.
I can't quite put my finger on why I love watching your videos SO MUCH. Is it your sense of humor, your class, your whimsical disposition??? I love it all. Thank you for sharing all that you do. Oh, and YES, I must make my bed first thing in the morning. Like you said, it just starts my day off right, and makes me feel like I've accomplished something. ~Christina
I make my bed everyday. And yes, we have a bedroom set. We bought it years ago before we knew about design options and the internet to give us endless inspiration and professional advice. There's no accent wall, no boho, no red, no tufting, no cluttered pillows, no floating shelves, you get the picture. My curtains are too short, and I need two new lamps because one got broken. I am drawn to your videos because you are light hearted and charming. Thank you for keeping us informed.
Well we love Arvin tho...I agree with him most of the time but not always I'm an artist and I decorate my house my way but I enjoy his feedback personality and his ideas too. We all are unique and our homes should reflect that. You are not creative if you just copy someone else's home and not add you in there. I can't tell my friends houses apart huge yawn...
Yeah, like every piece of furniture was picked up from the curb or at Goodwill or Salvation Army. And who is this person to be giving advice on decorating? Maybe the same person who came up with the bowl sinks, half door showers or open kitchen shelves. Every one should decorate the way they want and fu*k the trends! However, I do agree that too much of anything is too much, but only if you're selling your home. Otherwise no one cares if you decorate with tin foil and bling/glam excess.
Love the tips. The only one we did different was we added floating shelves in metal next to our king size bed. We put fun ottomans underneath them. It keeps our room looking bigger and with nightstands come more clutter. It works well for us.
Seems to me like you're merging seating with task & storage. I love this idea. It creates separate multi-use spaces for both of you. I can see these being used to read, eat, study, put on make-up, etc. Less is definitely more in this case.
“Nobody asked”.... but that’s what makes this channel amazing; you think of all of these helpful things that many of us don’t naturally think of with a spectacular sense of humor and relatability. Thank you so much❤️❤️❤️
*looks over at my chair with all the laundry on it that I wore for 10 seconds so it’s not quite dirty but not clean enough to hang it back up and it’ll sit there until I do laundry and say f it and throw it on in the hamper too*
Canceling my order of bedroom sets! Me: hello yes! Cancel my orders please! Salesman: is there something wrong? Me: Arvin doesn’t approve. So yes everything is wrong! I love you!! I knew I shouldn’t have done that the salesman got to us🤣
I just found this while getting ideas for my bedroom. I totally agree with all you said and appreciate the way you used humor to present the ideas! You are too funny and thank you for the great information!
I’m so happy to hear an expert tell me to not buy a bedroom set!!! My mother keeps telling me it’s a must, but I have zero interest!!!! My bedroom vibe is a mix of thrifted vintage.
My parents had matching furniture throughout the house...the benefit being it was all interchangeable, but really wasn't a style. It's taken me years to get over all of my mother's decorating hangups.
An expert? Haha. Right. If you want a bedroom set, then buy it. If you want to mix the pieces, then buy them. You don't need an 'social media influencer' to make choices about YOUR environment...hmm, or DO you?
I think you know you are right about these designs! I have found out the hard way after trying to decorate for myself for 63 years and I am now just finding out about these things that you are talking about! I’ve never seen your channel before, so I know nothing about you however I’ll bet you know many of these things innately even without training. That’s called talent!
You are a designer/standup comic and I can’t thank you enough for cheering me up since 2020 after the loss of my Mother. You killed me with “nobody asked…” As a bonus my house is becoming more beautiful each time I watch. I’m putting a gallery wall up today.
Dear Arvin, thank you for informing me that I’ve completely F’d up decorating every single aspect of my home. Coming from anyone else I would have been completely devastated, offended and angered. Finding this out from you however has made me feel inspired, actually energized and happy to start redecorating! Using your ideas and recommendations of course. Nobody asked but I’m Absolutely loving this series and can’t wait to find out even more ways that I’ve completely F’d up! Thank you ❤️ from Shannon in Canada 🇨🇦
Hello Arvin, I just discovered your channel and even though this video is about 2 years old, I fully agree with every tip. And the tufting? *serious eye rolling* oh I hate tufting. I will admit that one of my favorite headboards I ever had was in my teens and used a standard bookcase with my twin bed.
But, but, but....if it's not all matchy matchy, it won't look like we got the whole lot at Rent-A-Center. If u go for black and white, u can use Les Schwab Tires waiting room as a template!
My bedroom furniture was the last picture you showed of the bedroom sets. lol. 🤣🤣🤣 I have an adjustable frame that raises and lowers the head and foot sections. So I put a solid piece of memory foam over the tufted section. Changing it to an eyebrow archband covered it with oatmeal colored linen. Framed in the area around it adding trim to ceiling. Then added a plate glass mirror on each side out to the side walls. I hung 2 pendent lights on each side and am using a round table on one side & a square one on the other bedside. Wall mounted fireplace in the wall at the foot of the bed and took out the 2 windows and installed french doors out to the new all season room!! I wish I could send pictures, I love it. I have a bench at the foot of the bed. I turned my 3rd bedroom into my closet. I emptied the former 2.5 x 6ft closet & painted it a co-ordinating color put the dresser in there. The night stands are end tables in the family room. The tall chest is in the new closet . ❤
You know I have seen gorgeous red rooms .....really sometimes designers go too far! And subject to opinion. That one room he bragged about with all the patterns....ja ok he can keep thatnot feelin it in the least and for a child's room I found it .. depressing
I make my bed everyday, my mom made sure she taught me that well and early in life. Everyone makes fun of me for it, but like you said it starts my day right and sets course for many other accomplishments ☺️
I've always made my bed everyday. I was raised by my grand parents. My grandfather was an army sergeant. He would say if youre so lazy you can't even make your bed what else are you not going to do.
I do have a beautiful tufted queen bed , but I definitely don’t want anything else in my bedroom tufted , I don’t care for bedroom set themes either ..but to each it’s own
What I absolutely love about you is that you throw out a rule, then you give the exception. Decor isn’t black and white and you add the greys and silvers in between. I also love that you make yourself laugh.
hey! i understand where you’re coming from but there’s also a so many different tones of red, my room is red! and i have no trouble sleeping at all, nor does it make me “angry” like some people assume, although some people don’t like it, i actually my room’s shade of red calming and royal, if that makes sense
The home I bought (from a bachelor lol) came with a red bedroom…I made it work with some classy, oriental, and blue accents. Doesn’t feel sexual to me but it took some thought to make it work! I love your suggestions!
I got matchy furniture but slowly adding in new stuffs. Will receive keys of our first OWN house today and am thankful for your advise. Ready to make this house 100% me and husband. 😊 Also, a made bed is the best bed. It looks nice and clean and gives comfort.
You are great! I couldn’t stop laughing during your video… growing up in the 70’s /80’s I lived through the majority of these bedroom catastrophes! Now, that I am an empty nester, I’m redoing my home and I’m bringing your suggestions along for the ride😁
I really appreciate their honesty. As someone who has seen a lot of trends come and go, I need to be “saved” from my own exuberance. Keep up the fun work. People, don’t take this too seriously. Enjoy your home!
I love my bedroom set. It fits my style. I designed my room around a bedspread I loved. My wall color is a beautiful dark gold color. I have purple Curtains that are also from the bedspread. I even picked a color from the bedspread for my master bathroom walls. I loved a lot of your stop doing this recommended. And yes I make my bed every day.
I make my bed every day. When I get home from a cruddy day, that room is a clean, calm space to take the anxiety out of the day and changes your mood to serenity.
Burnt orange can be a good replacement for reds in the bedroom. It pairs well with creams and greens and blues. It looks like she used that in the drapes of her daughters bedroom!
If you already bought a Machi Machi bedroom set don’t forget you can put some of those in other rooms, and then take there nightstand or maybe dressers into yours 😂😂😂 it’s not to late also sometimes dressers fit in closets and it looks nice 💕
I love how even though you roast us, you then explain how we can incorporate the awful styles we won’t give up, into our rooms anyways! In a more classy way 😂🥰
@@DuLoserXD Hello! Oo sorry, I bet my comment sounded super snarky. There are lots of different options: bubble memory foam style by threshold, the performance bath mat by threshold, textured bat mat from Casaluna, looped bath mat from Casaluna....I’d stay away from chenille (although low chenille might be quite nice if you’re still looking for that fluffy feel). Fur just doesn’t look good when wet. It’s also difficult to keep it looking nice when put in the wash-it’s hard to keep clean and to clean it (in my opinion)
I totally agree. Bathroom floors should be bare. Only a foot towel when exiting the shower. Rugs trap too much (including smells)and need constant washing. Same goes for kitchen rugs.
@@SK-vq8wb I agree with you. We have a foot towel and we switch it out probably twice a week and wash, we have seven people using the same shower (ugh!) Hopefully our other shower will be fixed soon, but still, only towels. Bath mats are hard to clean and just mold so quickly!
It's actually not hygienic to make the bed as soon as you get up. The covers should be left down and the sheets exposed for at least an hour for everything to air out. Mites thrive in warm moist environments so when you get out of bed and immediately pull the covers up, it seals in the warmth and moisture you left behind by sleeping and sweating (we all sweat a little in our sleep) and makes a great environment for the mites. If you leave the covers down, the exposed sheets dry and cool and the mites die pretty auickly. I always leave my covers down with my ceiling fan on for at least an hour after I get up.
@@mygirldarby Thanks for the info. I never make the bed as soon as I get up. And, I spray disinfectant before I make bed. So far, no problem with mites.
I agree with everything you said but think you left out a few thing. A bedroom should be a romantic sanctuary and should not include a TV, exercise equipment or a work area. A bedroom is meant for two purposes, one of them is sleeping. The other one is not watching TV, exercising or doing work. Also dirty clothes hampers should not be visible; clean clothes should be put away and not piled up for ironing; and definitely no clutter. You should have something that pays music. I should mention that I’m a man and dress my bed day
The painter who visited our previous apartment "complemented" me on my bedroom by saying I have a very expensive and difficult to find color, that he've seen it only one time before... When he was painting brothels bedrooms 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 By the way the accent wall color was blackberry smoothly and currant yogurt for other walls 😂😂😂
Love this! I agree with about 99.9% of what you said..lol And I do make my bed every day. Just that simple task makes you room look cleaner than it actually is if you're having a messy room day.
I'm so happy that he mentioned about bedroom sets. I had always wanted one, until recently when I repurposed a cherry wood headboard and an antique dresser. Then years later I found an antique nightstand for one side of my bed and bought a black cube storage for the other side of my bed. Thank you for teaching me my furniture styles didn't need to match.
I generally get my feathers ruffled by these "don't do this" decorator types - but I have to say I agree with everything said on this one. And who can be offended by Arvin's witty, humorous delivery? And I truly want that coat!
I am currently designing a guest bedroom for people that I don't want to stay long - these tips are very helpful

@@camilleliguori7649
This is just depending on the theme of your room
And it does take quite a long time
But maybe like
Cease it into the wall
Build a structure (like a second wall) , you ofc can hire someone, and leave a gap between the wall and the structure (it’s hard to explain but like three walls to make like a box around where you want the tv to go)
Then it’ll look like it’s integrated into the wall and you can just put a table inside there to hold it up or mount it on the wall, then the cables will be hidden
I’m not sure if my explanation makes sense
Edit: like a bookcase, or you could get one of those big bookcase tv stand things
Or as the person above said yeah you could get a projector, but projectors mainly look good at night/in the dark
LITERALLY ME!!

Well we love Arvin tho...I agree with him most of the time but not always I'm an artist and I decorate my house my way but I enjoy his feedback personality and his ideas too. We all are unique and our homes should reflect that. You are not creative if you just copy someone else's home and not add you in there. I can't tell my friends houses apart huge yawn...
"A home that looks like a catalogue is not a home."
Well I guess it's a good thing my home looks like a mismatched Offer Up nightmare then.
Ha! Same!
😂😂😂
my mom used to call her style Early Halloween.
Yeah, like every piece of furniture was picked up from the curb or at Goodwill or Salvation Army. And who is this person to be giving advice on decorating? Maybe the same person who came up with the bowl sinks, half door showers or open kitchen shelves. Every one should decorate the way they want and fu*k the trends! However, I do agree that too much of anything is too much, but only if you're selling your home. Otherwise no one cares if you decorate with tin foil and bling/glam excess.
I love a lot of colors and textures and i am not changing it.
Love the tips. The only one we did different was we added floating shelves in metal next to our king size bed. We put fun ottomans underneath them. It keeps our room looking bigger and with nightstands come more clutter. It works well for us.
I am thinking of doing something similar, do you have any photos of the finished look??😊
Seems to me like you're merging seating with task & storage. I love this idea. It creates separate multi-use spaces for both of you. I can see these being used to read, eat, study, put on make-up, etc. Less is definitely more in this case.
Great idea!!
“Nobody asked”.... but that’s what makes this channel amazing; you think of all of these helpful things that many of us don’t naturally think of with a spectacular sense of humor and relatability. Thank you so much❤️❤️❤️
If you have a sitting area, it always becomes "that chair" that everyone throws laundry on 😂
According to my family, the chair also attracts ghosts.
But where would the ghost sit? On my trash and dirty clothes? 😅
*looks over at my chair with all the laundry on it that I wore for 10 seconds so it’s not quite dirty but not clean enough to hang it back up and it’ll sit there until I do laundry and say f it and throw it on in the hamper too*

I do have a chair in my bedroom and it's true, there is always something on it that has to be taken off if I want to sit on it.
Canceling my order of bedroom sets!
Me: hello yes! Cancel my orders please!
Salesman: is there something wrong?
Me: Arvin doesn’t approve. So yes everything is wrong!
I love you!! I knew I shouldn’t have done that the salesman got to us🤣
I just found this while getting ideas for my bedroom. I totally agree with all you said and appreciate the way you used humor to present the ideas! You are too funny and thank you for the great information!
“Red bedroom is like a brothel” well idk how I’m gonna explain this to my grandmother...
Show her "Fifty shades of grey"...
What if... that's how Nana's funding the cash inside her birthday cards?
😅😅😅
Lmao 😂 intervention time! 😆😆
😂
I’m so happy to hear an expert tell me to not buy a bedroom set!!! My mother keeps telling me it’s a must, but I have zero interest!!!! My bedroom vibe is a mix of thrifted vintage.
My parents had matching furniture throughout the house...the benefit being it was all interchangeable, but really wasn't a style. It's taken me years to get over all of my mother's decorating hangups.
An expert? Haha. Right.
If you want a bedroom set, then buy it. If you want to mix the pieces, then buy them. You don't need an 'social media influencer' to make choices about YOUR environment...hmm, or DO you?
@@salemdesigns65 I don’t think it was that deep
@@kushgoth
It's that deep, if you make uneducated choices or decisions based on unreliable sources.
Watching this in my cluttered bed with my matching bedroom furniture set 😩😭😂🤣
I think you know you are right about these designs! I have found out the hard way after trying to decorate for myself for 63 years and I am now just finding out about these things that you are talking about! I’ve never seen your channel before, so I know nothing about you however I’ll bet you know many of these things innately even without training. That’s called talent!
You are a designer/standup comic and I can’t thank you enough for cheering me up since 2020 after the loss of my Mother. You killed me with “nobody asked…” As a bonus my house is becoming more beautiful each time I watch. I’m putting a gallery wall up today.
Awe I’m sorry for your loss
Yes billy Jean, sally sue” “the higher the headboard the closer to God” I’m dead 😂😂😂😂😂 I love how you can make us laugh while giving tips 😅😂❤️❤️
Lololol 😭😂 thanks for mahjong with me today my love

Jajajajaja the best!!
Dear Arvin, thank you for informing me that I’ve completely F’d up decorating every single aspect of my home. Coming from anyone else I would have been completely devastated, offended and angered. Finding this out from you however has made me feel inspired, actually energized and happy to start redecorating! Using your ideas and recommendations of course. Nobody asked but I’m Absolutely loving this series and can’t wait to find out even more ways that I’ve completely F’d up! Thank you
❤️ from Shannon in Canada 🇨🇦
Hello Arvin, I just discovered your channel and even though this video is about 2 years old, I fully agree with every tip. And the tufting? *serious eye rolling* oh I hate tufting. I will admit that one of my favorite headboards I ever had was in my teens and used a standard bookcase with my twin bed.
"common sense is not that common" I'm dying. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Same! Best line ever 😂
But it is true🤣🤣
Best quote ever 😩😩😩😩😩
“The higher the headboard the closer to god ?” That’s a classic period 😭🤣
😂😂
He's soo funny 😂😂
“NO!” 🤣🤣
😂
😂🤣
"A HOME THAT LOOKS LIKE A CATALOG IS NOT A HOME!" Yes, I've taken the pledge!! I love that you temper your "nos" with humor and examples! Terrific!
But, but, but....if it's not all matchy matchy, it won't look like we got the whole lot at Rent-A-Center. If u go for black and white, u can use Les Schwab Tires waiting room as a template!
My bedroom furniture was the last picture you showed of the bedroom sets. lol. 🤣🤣🤣 I have an adjustable frame that raises and lowers the head and foot sections. So I put a solid piece of memory foam over the tufted section. Changing it to an eyebrow archband covered it with oatmeal colored linen. Framed in the area around it adding trim to ceiling. Then added a plate glass mirror on each side out to the side walls. I hung 2 pendent lights on each side and am using a round table on one side & a square one on the other bedside. Wall mounted fireplace in the wall at the foot of the bed and took out the 2 windows and installed french doors out to the new all season room!! I wish I could send pictures, I love it. I have a bench at the foot of the bed. I turned my 3rd bedroom into my closet. I emptied the former 2.5 x 6ft closet & painted it a co-ordinating color put the dresser in there. The night stands are end tables in the family room. The tall chest is in the new closet . ❤
All the red in my room doesn't look like a brothel. It looks like a goth bohemian midlife crisis, thank you very much
You know I have seen gorgeous red rooms .....really sometimes designers go too far! And subject to opinion. That one room he bragged about with all the patterns....ja ok he can keep thatnot feelin it in the least and for a child's room I found it .. depressing
He says that like it’s a bad thing 😂
Goth bohemian midlife crisis... I'm crying 🤣
🤣🤣🤣
Thank you for my best laugh of the day. What a great sense of humor.
I definitely want my room to look like a brothel 🤷🏻♀️ hahah
I make my bed everyday, my mom made sure she taught me that well and early in life. Everyone makes fun of me for it, but like you said it starts my day right and sets course for many other accomplishments ☺️
Same!! I thought this was an universal experience. If I don't make my bed short after getting up, it sets my whole day off.
Same and I'm a guy
I dress my bed every day too, and I WFH, I don't care if i don't go anywhere, i just need t/see the beds done!
First thing I do when I step out of bed. Boom, a few seconds. Done.
I've always made my bed everyday. I was raised by my grand parents. My grandfather was an army sergeant. He would say if youre so lazy you can't even make your bed what else are you not going to do.
“Common Sense isn’t that common.” Truth! 😂😂😂. I will be quoting you, Arvin! 💕
Hahah yasssss
“CALM THE TUFT DOWN” I broke down 😭😭🤣🤍
I do have a beautiful tufted queen bed , but I definitely don’t want anything else in my bedroom tufted , I don’t care for bedroom set themes either ..but to each it’s own
You are sooooo right about the flat bed. Ain’t nothing going on in there😂😂😂
This channel is growing exponentially . I’m so happy Arvin is getting the recognition he deserves🥰🥰🥰.
Ikr, 2 days ago he was at like 90,000!!
The editing is almost as amazing as he is 💕
I just subbed the other day, and he's awesome. ✨
I noticed that too! ❤️
Keep shining, Arvin! ✨
I think you mean channel, but I’m sure he won’t mind you saying Chanel. Haha! What a great Freudian slip.
What I absolutely love about you is that you throw out a rule, then you give the exception. Decor isn’t black and white and you add the greys and silvers in between.
I also love that you make yourself laugh.
Red is also an energy color which you don’t want when you’re trying to sleep.
hey! i understand where you’re coming from but there’s also a so many different tones of red, my room is red! and i have no trouble sleeping at all, nor does it make me “angry” like some people assume, although some people don’t like it, i actually my room’s shade of red calming and royal, if that makes sense
i actually find*
Red rooms are actually surprisingly relaxing, much more so than blue rooms I find. Laurel Bern the designer also figured this out about red rooms.
The home I bought (from a bachelor lol) came with a red bedroom…I made it work with some classy, oriental, and blue accents. Doesn’t feel sexual to me but it took some thought to make it work!
I love your suggestions!
actually, red is the best color to sleep with! blue is the color that keeps you awake.
I got matchy furniture but slowly adding in new stuffs. Will receive keys of our first OWN house today and am thankful for your advise. Ready to make this house 100% me and husband. 😊
Also, a made bed is the best bed. It looks nice and clean and gives comfort.
You are great! I couldn’t stop laughing during your video… growing up in the 70’s /80’s I lived through the majority of these bedroom catastrophes! Now, that I am an empty nester, I’m redoing my home and I’m bringing your suggestions along for the ride😁
Please do a bathroom, living room and kitchen version of ‘stop doing this’ please!!!
I really appreciate their honesty. As someone who has seen a lot of trends come and go, I need to be “saved” from my own exuberance. Keep up the fun work. People, don’t take this too seriously. Enjoy your home!
I love my bedroom set. It fits my style. I designed my room around a bedspread I loved. My wall color is a beautiful dark gold color. I have purple Curtains that are also from the bedspread. I even picked a color from the bedspread for my master bathroom walls. I loved a lot of your stop doing this recommended. And yes I make my bed every day.
Agree!
"Don't use red unless you want your room to look like a brothel".. I mean... **gestures vaguely to the hooks on the ceiling**
Yas.
Brothel or Playroom ??
I make my bed every day. When I get home from a cruddy day, that room is a clean, calm space to take the anxiety out of the day and changes your mood to serenity.
Amen nothing like a nice cool bed freshly made after a shower and long day.
So true
Burnt orange can be a good replacement for reds in the bedroom. It pairs well with creams and greens and blues. It looks like she used that in the drapes of her daughters bedroom!
Burnt orange is gross.
Girl no. Orange, no!
Yes, I agree with you yummy with white background purple floral drapes with dark green leaves…astonishing!
I love ochre as a colour.
Maybe an earthy terracotta tone
I love your vibe. Your smile and laugh is contagious!!!!! Love the video
I love that you're not just telling us about what's wrong with the techinique, but what to do instead in order to make the style work. Super helpful!
If you already bought a Machi Machi bedroom set don’t forget you can put some of those in other rooms, and then take there nightstand or maybe dressers into yours 😂😂😂 it’s not to late also sometimes dressers fit in closets and it looks nice 💕
Exactly what I’m going to do!
I love how even though you roast us, you then explain how we can incorporate the awful styles we won’t give up, into our rooms anyways! In a more classy way 😂🥰
Except red bedrooms 😏
"The higher the headboard, the closer to God."
I cracked up so hard 🤣🤣
Don't ask why, but I'd love to see a "stop doing this to your bathroom" video lol
People still use fur bathmats--yuck.
may i ask - what is a nice alternative to bathmats then lol
@@DuLoserXD Hello! Oo sorry, I bet my comment sounded super snarky. There are lots of different options: bubble memory foam style by threshold, the performance bath mat by threshold, textured bat mat from Casaluna, looped bath mat from Casaluna....I’d stay away from chenille (although low chenille might be quite nice if you’re still looking for that fluffy feel). Fur just doesn’t look good when wet. It’s also difficult to keep it looking nice when put in the wash-it’s hard to keep clean and to clean it (in my opinion)
I totally agree. Bathroom floors should be bare. Only a foot towel when exiting the shower. Rugs trap too much (including smells)and need constant washing. Same goes for kitchen rugs.
@@SK-vq8wb I agree with you. We have a foot towel and we switch it out probably twice a week and wash, we have seven people using the same shower (ugh!) Hopefully our other shower will be fixed soon, but still, only towels. Bath mats are hard to clean and just mold so quickly!
I need a shirt that’s says “calm the tuft down” 😂
Make this so we can order them. I want 😫 one but keep it affordable 💯 👌.
My mother taught me to start my day by making my bed. I can't function with the thought of my bed not being made.
It's actually not hygienic to make the bed as soon as you get up. The covers should be left down and the sheets exposed for at least an hour for everything to air out. Mites thrive in warm moist environments so when you get out of bed and immediately pull the covers up, it seals in the warmth and moisture you left behind by sleeping and sweating (we all sweat a little in our sleep) and makes a great environment for the mites. If you leave the covers down, the exposed sheets dry and cool and the mites die pretty auickly. I always leave my covers down with my ceiling fan on for at least an hour after I get up.
@@mygirldarby Thanks for the info. I never make the bed as soon as I get up. And, I spray disinfectant before I make bed. So far, no problem with mites.
@@mygirldarby thank you for this! I will remember thus from now on. Lordt!
I agree with everything you said but think you left out a few thing. A bedroom should be a romantic sanctuary and should not include a TV, exercise equipment or a work area. A bedroom is meant for two purposes, one of them is sleeping. The other one is not watching TV, exercising or doing work. Also dirty clothes hampers should not be visible; clean clothes should be put away and not piled up for ironing; and definitely no clutter. You should have something that pays music. I should mention that I’m a man and dress my bed day
6:17 "What is that, the higher the headboard, the closer to God?" LMAO 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
“Unless you want your room to look like a brothel” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yes. I do more than sleep on there
If one item Tufted insults you you really have a problem you need to get a life
The painter who visited our previous apartment "complemented" me on my bedroom by saying I have a very expensive and difficult to find color, that he've seen it only one time before... When he was painting brothels bedrooms 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 By the way the accent wall color was blackberry smoothly and currant yogurt for other walls 😂😂😂
Finally a designer that’s not a middle aged mom, you’re so entertaining 😭😭😭
Ouch!
That’s fucking rude.
Love this! I agree with about 99.9% of what you said..lol And I do make my bed every day. Just that simple task makes you room look cleaner than it actually is if you're having a messy room day.
“That person ain’t coming back” I’m dead!!!

“Do you really wanna tell everybody your bedroom business?”
Exhibitionist: 😳😏
Ahahaha yassss
I liked it
@@savitasharmavlog you do you boo 👉👉
Oh boy! lol
I'm so happy that he mentioned about bedroom sets. I had always wanted one, until recently when I repurposed a cherry wood headboard and an antique dresser. Then years later I found an antique nightstand for one side of my bed and bought a black cube storage for the other side of my bed. Thank you for teaching me my furniture styles didn't need to match.
Good advise I'm about to redesign my bed room never though of those ideas
Arvin cracks me up every time with his « Billy Jean and Sally Sue » 😂
Billy Jean Sally SUE!!!!! 🤣🤣 I CAN NOT!
It’s an automatic follow for me, honestly🤷🏾♀️
"This video was NOT sponsored by Ashley Home Center or Rooms to Go."
Amazon?
I generally get my feathers ruffled by these "don't do this" decorator types - but I have to say I agree with everything said on this one. And who can be offended by Arvin's witty, humorous delivery? And I truly want that coat!
you are too sweet!
I know right? That coat is goals.
Totally agree. Love the coat, LOVE the humor even more!
TBH even if I don't agree like a car dog. I find them kinda funny and wholesome. They're not like one of these poyentious designers
They coat is fabulous 🎉😀
Arwin, this video was on👉👍 point!!!!👈🧠👏🤳🏿🤣
