- On today's episode of Homeworthy, we're in Birmingham, AL, visiting the home of interior designer Ellie Christopher. Inspired by her Southern upbringing, Ellie creates refined and sophisticated interiors in her so-called "cabinet of curiosities." She has a keen eye for the unusual and unexpected, and is drawn to quirky pieces which can be found throughout her completely reworked 1960s condo, which exudes a charming vibe with lively color. Enjoy!

I love how she said as a young designer she wanted to use the luxury curtains and unfortunately she couldn’t afford it so she decided to buy linen curtains that was budget friendly and she added the curtain tape to trim them.
If you are a young designer, most people can’t afford those luxury products and it’s okay to admit that.
I feel like her humbleness is very important in knowing when to splurge on items and when it’s not affordable to not just get it on credit card debt.
Ellie has created a simply smashing one-of-a-kind home. Her talent is HUGE! I adore her (she's hysterical) and her whimsical touches.
Love seeing younger generations passionately cultivating unique and sophisticated aesthetics
I was just thinking the same thing. Everyone I know who is under 40 seems to decorate their homes in "Early Ikea", and so it's wonderful to see this lovely young lady decorating with such a delightful sense of style and whimsey.
Yes!
This is soooo Birmingham and I’m here for it! I love her mix of whimsy and traditional. It’s such a cozy, beautifully finished space!
Ellie is an artist and it shows. Such a classic and classy home made so much more interesting by all of the quirky elements that are surprisingly complementary (well, not that surprising, she’s a very talented designer!). Also, her floral designer friend is super talented as well.
Lovely condo-she’s added a whole lot of charming personality to a very plain space. Well done!
What an absolutely charming home. And so much creativity. Ellie is very talented, and she has created a wonderful home for herself.
What a talented , lovely young lady! Such class and whimsy and uniqueness in her design. She also speaks very well and is so down to earth. She is probably my favorite person on this program so far and I have watched many!!!!
Love this home! Her commitment to champagne is unmatched! I also really appreciate the diversity of home sizes. The stories sher shared demonstrate how to slowly build a collection to fill your home. Love everything about this! This is truly a home ❤
So glad she's in Birmingham! For a young person, she's got a great eye! Lovely home !!!
honestly, this isn't a good look for Birmingham. exterior looks like the location of a Netflix true crime miniseries
@@jacobpalmer127Dearest Jacob, if you have nothing nice to say, and in all of your comments, you clearly don’t, then please refrain from saying anything at all. Words tear down or build up. Choose the latter and be a better person. Have a blessed day.
As others have mentioned, Ellie’s presentation is so refreshing - her work is beautiful. Loved seeing mixed details in a smaller home.
My favourite Homeworthy house tour so far ! Ellie’s eye for detail and personal history pieces really make her spaces so inviting !
Her personality match her unique, fun, special design! The different animals around her home is very endearing and I love it, maybe because I’ve done the same thing to my home! 😃 Enjoyed this visit to this young woman’s home!
I'm glad to see someone representing Birmingham so well. Nice condo!
Incredible transformation of a very standard space. What a great talent this designer has! A unique, warm & special home
What a sweet, charming, fun and witty young woman! And oh how I love tours of smaller homes. This one is so cozy and creative. Very talented designer. The kitchen redo is great.
I love hearing about everything!!!
So pretty and sweet.
Delightful story today. Ellie has such design savy. She makes the most of each space. The additional tone on tone painting on the main bedroom wall impressed me. The animal touches throughout her home provided nice surprises. Great ideas for drapes. She has such a keen sense of attention to those tiny detail touches. Thanks for the ideas for finishing touches. !
Oh my goodness. I kept wanting to give this a thumbs up but I had already. She has an elegant touch and eye for mixing textiles in terms of feel, color, style, era, functionality. Her mixes of vintage and modern are not forced as I've seen in some of the other videos where the designers claim to enjoy mixing modern with vintage or antique. She actually does it elegantly. Her straight forward delivery and open personality are very charming.
Ellie, both your home and you seem great! Thanks for letting us visit.
She may be young but she's got it going on! Love the hall ceiling wallpaper and the bamboo cabinet. Gorgeous. The blackmoor lamp reminded me of my favorite southern designer, Charles Faudree.
You are definitely an artist. Love the panels. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home with us. You are so lucky to have such fabulous family pieces and gifts.
She and her home are super charming---love the family pieces and her collected style---im sure she will be a success for many years to come--also my family loves Birmingham---makes me want some Jim and Nicks and want to go to Brass Bear😊
Ellie and her love for special, whimsical touches reminds me of a young Alexandra Stoddard. Alexandra suggested decorating only with what you love and makes you happy. I’ve never forgotten that. And I too collect dishes!
Love how she’s paired the gold choker style necklace with the blue shirt-dress. Love her style so much.
Simply beautiful. I can see how happy life in your condo is with all of your very tasteful and decorative items. My favorite room is your kitchen. The huge blue lamp in your guest bedroom is flawless. Wow!
Love this home…it’s really pretty but with some ‘Grrrrr’ behind it too. Beautifully thought out and full of southern charm ❤
I don’t know when I have enjoyed a video so much. What a delightful young lady with a simply gorgeous home I wish I had a little bit of our talent and whimsy.❤
She cracked me up. I love it all. I’m so glad homeworrthy is showing these colorful homes. Finally something i can relate to
Beautiful! The screen she painted is everything!
Loved every minute of the house tour, the most beautiful piece in Elles home was her portrait as a little girl,,,, adorable !!!!!
What a beautiful home! I live just outside of Birmingham too so I was so excited to see this episode!! I love all the different colors. I will also need to schedule a trip to henhouse antiques ❤
Ellie is so funny and down to earth!
Oh I love this home!
You have a beautiful home.
Your artwork flowers look like daffodils.
Thankyou for a lovely tour 💗
Eclectic- cabinet of curiosities, right up my alley
Very uniquely curated home
Your home is lovely. It is a reflection of your taste, style and no one else. It is lovely and very personal. Your feminine touches are delightful. Keep decorating and assisting people with transforming their houses into homes.
Such a beautiful home!
Wow, what a great fun home. Lots of colour yet still soothing. Love it.
LOVE LOVE your humor ...and LOVE the Rabbit Wall paper.
She’s adorable! And so very talented! Loved this!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Added to my favorite Homeworthy list.💕
Such a lovely episode, quirky, pretty, funny, loved it!
Ellie I simply loved your condo and your design style. Your style is so in keeping with the things I love. If I had the resources you would certainly be the one I would be coming to in order to transform my condo at Regency Terrace on Red Mountain in Birmingham. I love your beautiful colors and textures. I have collected many beautiful things over the years unfortunately I do not have the design knowledge to display and highlight that I have!! This was a great show and I will definitely remember your name.
I don’t know which room I love the best! 🎉
What an incredible talent Ellie is🤩
She has so many inspiring ideas.
The scale of the lamp in the guest room - transformative🤯
Can’t wait to see more of her work🥂
So beautiful and so many special fabrics
SWOONWORTHY! This is such a vibrant and personal space…I just love everything about it and I also want her dress!
I love reading the comments you guys brighten my day 😄
I love the bunny wallpaper! What a bummer they no longer make it. Beautiful, whimsical home! ❤
Google Hunt Slonem wallpaper...there are still MANY wallpapers featuring his bunny print in production.
I love what you’ve done! Just beautiful!
Every little thing is lovely and makes the home cozy. The snail is so special that it makes me want to hunt one down.
Such an adorable home. Love it.😊
Nice home! Love all the touches like wallpaper etc and how the colors were put together. Nice job.
This woman is so very fabulous, I bet she’s a marvelous host
What a beautiful home!
You have the cutest little southern voice!
So many pretty and interesting things to see. Some favorite things are the bed in the guest room and black kitchen cabinets with the bunny wallpaper! Also loved the wallpaper and light fixture in the hall.
Love this! There are so many beautiful details, and I love them all. I am a huge fan of that pagoda style lamp.
I want a shirt like her dress!!!❤️. I've seen that rabbit wallpaper in numerous homes ( that's not a slam) and I always love it. It's so whimsical yet contemporary and really makes a room pop.🎉
I really enjoyed this home tour, was great to see a smaller home decorated so beautifully while being mindful of budget. I enjoyed her presentation and stories very much and was inspired to look up 'Antiques at The Gardens' that sounds like a fantastic event, wish we had something like that in the U.K.!
I love all the color ! It’s funny ,two weeks ago I put a snap shot of the spare bedroom from I don’t even know where and I start watching this house and get to see it all over again.Now I get a whole house of inspiration and not just the inspiration for my bedroom!I also ❤️❤️❤️the snail and I didn’t even know I was a fan of them but I must be as I have the same gold one as well.I wish in the future you could some how show your works as I obviously love your taste as I have a lot of the same colors and a whimsy pug picture as well ,Lol.When customers will allow please think about it !
Great tour!! Beautifully appointed with old and new!!
Daffodils art in the guest room.
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful.... couldn't do bettter!
So cute, & pretty. Love the light fixtures/ chandeliers!
Quirky and creative home which has many interesting pieces which make her condo lovely.
This is one of my favorites.
Absolutely wonderful. You have a great talent!
Love love love the kitchen wallpaper!!!
Lovely condo! Miss Ellie could decorate my home any time!! Beautiful!!! :)
Darling home! Love it!
You are so talented and I loved your tour. So eclectic and personal and southern. As a girl from Alabama I loved it.
I needed to hear your pep talk about wallpapers, Thank you😂
Loved all of this x
Very proud of you!! You have done a great job!
I like Ms.Ellie Christopher English designed primary bedroom . This young designer has realistic taste. She’s up her game, and if I’ve lived in Alabama and have the means to hire her I sure would because she’s a young sincere designer. Ms. Christopher inspired me, and I’m not a young person! Congrats!
The blue lamp....wow! Stunning ❤❤❤❤
I’m wondering if the flowers painted were daffodils but creamier than yellow? Loved the wallpapered ceiling! In Italy so many homes decorate the ceilings as well! ❤
Loved this!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Really beautiful! 🤩
Such a great house. You did a sweet job on the pear, wouldn’t have known six year old hands crafted it, until you disclosed.
💯 Absolutely 💯 gorgeous home!
Very creative and the home is decorated very nicely. A talent to keep an eye out for. Cute dress, barefoot and eloquent. Charmed.
Beautiful!!!!
Fabulous! Oh!
Self portrait? The cat painted it himself? 😂 is she in the nightgown ? The house is charming , I love the wooden snail 🐌
I was super nervous and loosing my words...its just a pet portrait! You got me!
@@Ellie_Christopherhey , my cat knew how to answer the ringing phone - he would move the headset with his paws! And nobody taught him ! I love your cat and your home . But I did not like your outfit - you are too young and beautiful to hide your figure ! Wishing you the best ! 😘
@@LuchSveta1Do you remember where you mastered the concept that your derogatory opinion of someone’s clothing choice was essential enough to mention? Please reflect and aim passionately, purposely and promptly towards correcting this concept. Hoping for the best for you…😊
@@Ellie_Christopher you did a wonderful job, I couldn’t tell you were nervous at all, you sounded very natural and charming. We all mis-speak, I certainly do, more than most.
@@user-gr8xk6nz9bdo you remember me asking your permission to express my personal opinion on the aesthetics ,which is not even slightly related to you ? Ellie is a beautiful young girl and I just simply reminded it to her . Not to you 😂
Wonderful home tour!
I really like it!
Just perfect
Ellie. Well done.
Wow beautiful❤
Roll Tide from Nashville! ❤️🐘
War Eagle!!!! Alabama ~ :0)
Delightful
I love seeing exuberance and opulence in small spaces! I would hire her in less than a minute!
I love your home. You are very talented and I want to copy Everything ❤. Wish I could afford your design
She’s too cute. And I love she’s in my town!
I loved hearing about all the little details. What inspired her and where she found items…..except I didn’t hear her mention where she found her stunning living room light withe the palm or leaf motiv?
It's actually a wall sconce I purchased from Richard Tubb in Pepper Place. I rigged it up to hang from the ceiling.
@@Ellie_Christopher thanks for your reply. How inventive❤️
Ellie, your home is stunning. You are very talented indeed. Maybe you have this already, I see you having a line of your own wallpaper and fabric designs for sale. I'd love to be around you and your mum. It sounds like you have a great relationship with much fun.
I am going out buying a lottery ticket then win. First call will be to hire Ellie to decorate my house ❤ in Australia
