We all start somewhere! 🙈 If I could give my 20s self a bit of design advice, experiment more worry less!! I wished I took more pictures of my spaces as well to see how far I’ve come 🤗 How has your style evolved since your 20s? Do you decorate more or less?
This is me in my 40s ❤ but I’ll be 50 next year and now know so much since I’ve researched (watching Julie’s channel) for years. I know what I want going forward. I didn’t buy any new furniture for my new home in 4 years. I saved for hardwood floors instead.
My mom just showed up with a truck load of stuff 😂 but it was things like pillows, drapery, a cool chair, sink, mirror, candle, she even put my porch together for me. The woman is talented! Lol I’m blessed to have her help me with this old house we just bought. Anyway I’m still taking your tips! Don’t buy the cheap shit! 😂
Love Sassy Julie! You look stunning. This is great advice even if you’re in your 50s and starting over. I never got a pic of my teen room but it’s permanently in my mind. Didn’t have anything but Belle magazine in my 20s but I was also living in a mining town with the ugliest laminated wood grain furniture for the most part. Didn’t want dark wood like my parents so I got clear polish pine furniture which went orange but is now painted black. Biggest changes I’m making is not settling for the best of the bad bunch and living within my clutter threshold with beautiful storage. PS I’ve changed my name from Fiona to Harriet!
Thanks so much Charmaine! 💖 Looking around my home now, I ONLY kept those high quality pieces! The rest of the cheap filler furniture went to donation. I spent so much time hoarding in my 20s and a lot of my 30s trying to undo the physical (and mental) damage 🤪
I think some people (like you) are hunters, and love the thrill of the "hunt" for bargains. Also, there's a thin line between maximalism and hoarding 😀
It’s called your clutter threshold. Everyone has a different level of clutter they can handle. The way you store things is also a part of it, some like to hide it in cupboards and some like stuff easily assessable on a peg board or on the fridge. It’s a challenge but fun to get your space set up for you. Lived with a hoarder for a long time so I’m pretty sensitive to my threshold. 😊
My room has been “in progress for 5 years” 😢 and I’m 27 now. But I love your advice I have already gotten rid of cheap sh*t I bought because it was not my style/ comfortable (loveseat from at home and random office chair from Ross). My family now gives me vintage brass/ chinoiserie pieces. I love these types of gifts 🎁 and I love saving for pieces I want. Thank you Julie I feel less overwhelmed about finishing my spaces 🥹
Thank you for this video. I love interior design, always have. When I was 13 that's what I wanted to do. Everyone laughed and I listened to them. Gave up my dream because I didn't think I the talent. I am sorry now. I still dabble. 6th living room iteration. Always changing it up, reading design, following tubers. I still love it. Follow your dreams because you can always pick yourself up and do something else.
Me in my 70s watching this, cherishing some family pieces, some IKEA classics (Billy bookcases, obelisk, but I have too much stuff. Good planning required.
I could barely listen to you Julie - but I did 😂 - i felt in love with your console / chest in you background and my eyes constantly were drown there 😍 Can I ask what kind of wood is that?
I’m pensioner and give half to my daughter she’s lives other side world and it’s expensive but I got a solid wood bed with headboard second hand for £20 just need someone strong to put it together for me! ♥️🇬🇧
Julie your hair looks great!!! Gee when you're in your twenties money is scares n you can't afford it no matter how cheap! I love you Julie but this video ????

Nailed it! I thrift as often as I can. The pieces are so unique.

Thank you so much ☺️💕

Love that you emphasised “quality “…love that you are bringing reality of life ..and advice..that is so practical..✨🙏✨

Me in my 30s watching this 👁️👄👁️
That is a great start, no matter your age. I'm 36, it wasn't until I was 30 that I started to just decorate in the way I most loved.
Yup. Same here. 😅 Much love for our beloved and talented Julie. 😊
Me in my 40s wanting to give that 20s something girl a big ol’ hug!!! She was so anxious all the time oman I dont miss those days at all lol 😬
I love your hair Julie! 😍
Thank you Ann! Needed a lil refresh 💁🏼♀️😘

Reformed hoarder turned maximalist here 🙋🏼♀️ You’re absolutely right, there is a fine line. I’m treading both 😆

This is so real and thanks for sharing this video 👍the decorating never realy ends it just changes from time to time....
I gave up on a couch for living in an apartment. Too heavy and too hard to move. Choose a settee or a loveseat.
