    3. Calm down on the tufting
    4. Buying bedroom sets
    5. Headboards that are too high
    6. Too many patterns
    7. Cluttered pillows
    8. Flat hostel bed

    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.

      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.

    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 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.

    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 . ❤

Other advice was great!

    I love bedroom sets. It’s just my personal preference and I don’t need an expert to tell me otherwise. Especially since I’m not someone who does a good job at putting together random pieces (I’ve tried for many many years and I just don’t have an eye for it like some people do). Also I refuse to pay anyone to do it for me. So bedroom sets are my go to and they just uncomplicate my life. I add paintings and unique accent pieces as a way to create some individuality in my space and I think that approach works best for me. Painting can also be nice when done well on just one wall.

      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

I don’t mind making my bed everyday but making hers was a chore! She didn’t like that I moved into her daughter’s old room with a single trundle bed. (She made me sleep with her dogs) 🙄. She killed it for me-no more animals, no over the top pillows, and definitely no farmhouse anything lol.

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!

      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.
