Hi friends!! Let me know if you guys are interested in more episodes like this! Or how I could adapt it to make it more helpful. It was so fun for me to think about each of your spaces, thank you!!❤️
Personally,love this type of video!
Loveedd thiss
Loved this vid! Keep it up Grrrl, lovin' it all!
I would love to see more videos like this one. It is great to learn new things and be entertained especially at my age, 74 years old soon to be 75. I love your other vids, flogs and I think you are adorable and so real. Thank you.
Yes, love it
Honestly, one of my favorite things about you is that you’re so mindful of others. Even just acknowledging how vulnerable it can make a person to submit their space. You’re good people. 💜
❤️appreciate this Jenna
I agree it was done with kindness AND so useful
So so rare these days and so valued
The first place is mine. 😄Thanks so much for the recommendations, especially about centering a storage unit. I did end up doing two sofas, mainly out of anxiety about not having enough seating😅. And it is primarily a conversation zone, especially for dinner parties. But you're right, two chairs would have kept it feeling more open. Love the banquet suggestion with a small table! Thank you so much! It's so cool that you did this. 😊
Amazing! I would love to see a follow up of what it looks like now if you’re comfortable. Your space is beautiful.
i think that's wonderful! i can completely see that being a great setup for you. and YOU live in the space, so you know what works in there for your flow. I hope everyone can keep in mind that FULL in depth design advice from me or anyone would require hours (days) of discussion / many more questions about your needs, lifestyle, habits, routine, preferences etc. Since these videos dont allow for that, I'm aiming to share my best guesses and some universal principles that could apply to lots of spaces. All that to say - I am SO glad you went with your gut, because you have a ton more information at your disposal - and your gut is usually right! i never regret leaning into my intuition and i'm glad you did for your space. 🧡🙌major kudos to you. definitely send progress pics if you feel like it down the road!
I'm seeing these vids as lovely conversation starters...the concrete spaces better illustrate the thinking behind the principles we can all apply if we feel like it. I love this! So useful and fun.
So we’ll said Kimberly, I absolutely love that ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Gosh your space is so gorgeous!!!! Excited for you and hope everything is going well
“Babies are obsessed with mirrors. Babies can’t get over themselves.”
😅lol only you and i thought this was funny
@@Caroline_Winkler I did too!!! LOL!!! And I'm a grandma!! Great suggestions btw!!
would love to see an update video with all of their finished spaces when the time comes!
sameee!
Hear, HEAR!!
Omg that's my room!!! And I'm going on a Mt Ranier hike today! Loved this video girl and so happy that you're sharing your words of wisdom!! Gonna get to work on finding a giant art piece now 😂
Ah thanks for sending it in!! You have a great space, so calming, which I always love ❤️ have a great hike, and definitely send me progress photos as your room evolves!
Yes we wanna see what you do! 💕
I recommend checking out some 2020-2021 Mr Kate interior makeovers - before she moved to hawaii, her signature thing in every makeover video was that she did a piece of art with the person living i the space. There's a ton of huge art pieces, she never had the same technique twice, and it was always super beginner friendly/failproof bc almost everyone she did makeovers would be like "i can't do art!" And she'd be like sure you can lol
I've used shower curtains stapled and framed on a huge canvas for huge art. So cool. Society 6 has some amazing shower curtains with any style. Good luck.
@@Prettynickle that's such a cool idea!
I loved this, this could be a series for sure. It’s definitely helpful to hear your thought process and how your break down each room’s advantages and problems. Usually I like or dislike a room but I don’t normally know why, it helps to get the design perspective. Also after watching this I plan to use “leggy” as an adjective for furniture more often.
😍so so glad. #leggylife
Your comments about never apologizing for what you have etc… are so good! I think we often all feel so insecure about what we have in our homes and are afraid to ask for help in fear we’ll be judged. You did an amazing job of encouraging them and offering real life, practical solutions. Awesome job! 😊👏
I love what you wrote , it is spot on !, thanks
I concur. Completely
These were the most helpful interior design tips I've ever heard. You know what you're talking about! This should totally become a series.
girl!!! thank you!
My roommate bought a massive piece of art and it hangs directly in front of me when I'm doing yoga. I had no idea it would be so impactful! It's abstract and I have several spots on it that I use to focus on when doing balancing poses and it's such a lovely way to make my yoga practice even better (in response to space #2)
* also more of these please
This is one of my favorite “help me with my space” videos. I hope you keep doing these. You’re brilliant!
Oh man that’s amazing to hear! I never know how these will land and was so scared to share it. I’ll definitely make more now! Thanks for letting me know❤️❤️
We need mooooreeee!!!
The UA-cam algorithm is coming in hot today: it recommended this video, which I'm happy to have stumbled across, because you did a really great job of explaining design concepts in ways that people can translate to their own spaces, your humor is wonderful, and I love all of the advice you gave. I love this format of video and would love to see more of it. ALSO, you HAVE to get this comment all the time, but you remind me so much of Jennifer Aniston it's insane -- your voice, mannerisms, appearance, etc.
lol today we thank the algorithm for bringing us together 🙌im so glad you liked the video! (i only started hearing the Jennifer anniston comparison - esp voice- once i started making youtube videos, just all of a sudden. i aint mad about it)
stopp i commented the same thing about the voice today! I thought i was crazy
Omg, now I can't unsee it :))
@@noone-re3zp I started watching and was like, "But this has to be Jennifer??" hahaha. It's not just you! But also, big shout out to Caroline for *not* being Jennifer and being hella cool in other ways.
@@marinaalinescu1660 hahaha so sorry! It's true, though: once you hear/see it, it can't be undone
She is truly such an inspiration. I love interior design and getting new ideas from people. Her style and her eye for things is impeccable. She is incredibly talented, and her videos are just so therapeutic and beautifully executed. If I could sit down and have coffee with her ; my life would be made. Happy Saturday
How dare u fill my morning with too many nice words! This video was so so fun to make. If it was also fun for YOU guys, I’ll make more like it!
@@Caroline_Winkler Yes, please!! Make more videos like this!! Love your channel btw!!
Love the bangs, love this format. Love that you're using your skills to help other people. I think people should also realize that you've done a lot of videos on thrifting and Facebook marketplace Etc so that some of these more expensive pieces that they might need to buy to complete their space could be much more affordable than just ordering something online. In addition you've done at least one piece that I can remember where you made art. Then all you got to do is go to a thrift store and find a frame. So a lot of this can be much more affordable and I'm not sure that comes through in this video... but I encourage anyone reading this to watch the prior videos.🙂
So true Lisa!! Obviously i complete agree because 80% of my home is decorated from FB marketplace or thrift. And I love it. Ideally, I think a mix is always best, and more affordable! Just gotta be patient and willing to dig a little 😊thanks for sharing this!❤️
"IIt's just a room, it's just stuff." Words to unparalize me!
I do appreciate your approach to helping people figure things out and things to try.
This video was such a great idea! I think everything was so practical but fun for the individual spaces. I would love to see more if you have the time. It's very useful to hear your thought/design process.
I’m so glad! So many more I could do, if you guys enjoy them then I definitely will!
I used the dresser you recommended as a changing table! It’s amazing and it will grow with my boys as they get older 😊 such a great video. Would love to submit my own.
My only comment about two couches for Shawan would be the "flow" would be better with a couch against one wall, then two chairs with their backs to the windows. It would mean anyone going from one area to the other wouldn't have to walk around a couch to sit and watch TV, but could go right between the chairs. I *love* the idea of the built-ins around the windows for seating and storage! So smart. The legginess comment blew my mind. THAT's what's been bothering me about my friend's living room! We've been discussing what it is that feels off. Instant subscribe, though this is the first video of yours I've seen.
That swivel chair idea to swap between zones is frickin brilliant.
The swivel chairs idea is GENIUS for the spot that can be part of both the TV section of the room and the conversation/play area. 😍
I loved this video! You should do more of them! 1. I appreciate that you gave A LOT of design inspiration, 3 design options is a lot more than one really thorough makeover. 2. And I loved how you talked us through it: in a discussion of BONES not STYLE, its so helpful to see how to place furniture in different rooms. Your comments about all of us “doing our best” helps me be kinder to myself! I’d love to see this style of video about once a month, if that’s feasible. Lastly, the bangs are ADORABLE! You look super sleek and polished!
This video was approached in such a respectful and insightful manner. So often I feel like design videos are purposefully extra about how much they hate when others do things in their own home. This was such a refreshing departure from that vibe. Love it! 👏🏼
I know this will be modern cliché but it's true: Caroline I came for the Street Man romance and stayed for the most helpful and relatable interior design advice I've ever come across.
If 700 comments wasn't enough...YES I'd love for you to do more videos like this!! I got ideas for my weird shaped old (loveable) home from this video. Thankyou for talking about how to showcase the unique features of a room and not cover them up to force them to be modern boxes.
You are kind, funny, real and talented. What a quadrafecta! Thankyou for being vulnerable too 💜
I would looove to see an update from these people to show what changes they made! Also, when you talked about not being sure about loving a color scheme to look in your closet I was like “come on, that’s so smart”. Thank you!
Love these types of videos, definitely add them into the regular rotation! You have such interesting ideas for spaces.
so glad!
This really helped me! I’ve felt frozen from being able to design my rooms and I think figuring out the functionality is key!! So simple but I didn’t even think of it. Thank you so much!! I get so excited for Saturdays and new Caroline videos so please keep it up!! They bring me a lot of joy because guurrrl you so funny!
ahh im so glad! yes always start with functionality!
You had me at “Route Mainer” ⛰ 😂
I love this video! I didn’t even think about going to my closet and using the colors in my wardrobe to help design. My room feels very “college” & not a reflection of my style at all. Maybe it’s time I buy things with intention and not because it’s free! Haha, I forget that I can do that. This video helped me so much figure out my spaces! Once again, Caroline! You have made my day! Can’t wait to see you next time ❤️
Ah man this makes my day. I’m so glad there were some helpful tidbits in there😍 totally with you too on that transition from buying a it’s cheap / free to buying because you love it….I LOVE to score a deal, but my experience is that if I buy something ONLY for the price tag, then I can pretty guarantee I’m gonna be annoyed at it every time I see it / use it. No need to bring that energy into your home😂
This is brilliant! Your advice is so spot on and exactly the kind of interior design content that we need to make decorating more accessible and less intimidating to everyone! ALSO, your attitude so approachable and relatable. I always feel like I just had a great coffee date with a good friend after your videos!
ugh love to hear that it feels accessible 🧡as it should!!
I just moved into a new apartment and I’m ready to fully refresh my furniture/art so this was the perfect video! Definitely took some notes 😌
Oo congrats!!! I hope you’re settling in well! Take your time with making it your home😊
I just wanna say your family of origin just seems so wholesome and like you all really love each other. You should do a video on your family dynamic growing up and how your parents cultivated that (or didnt) idk i just want my kids to be relational like this when they’re adults too
that dark plum in the preview of this video is the color of the year. looks sooo rich against a neutral palate
Loved this! It was very helpful hearing you think out loud about the function of a room, legginess, and picture size and placement and everything else. And at the end, your unqualified support of us living our lives and doing the best we can was very welcome. xoxo
I’m so inspired by this video creatively and I haven’t been as motivated lately thank you!!
Doh! That makes me so happy! I love inspo / motivation all the time too, sometimes you just gotta wait for it to build up❤️
Hi Caroline! 18:23 you mentioned the rug relating things. I think there’s a parallel between other videos of yours where you mention using trays to hold things.
Just watching this video and made that connection of “oh the rug is the tray for the furniture on the rug!”. I like your perspective on that and think it’s great advice. Hope you’re doing well. Feels like I’m writing an email to a professor rn so I’m gonna dip
Many UA-camrs make videos like this but in the end I feel like I'm none the wiser. These tips are worth gold, girl!! Please keep 'em coming!!
i love these kind of videos. if you ever have clients open to it i would love to see more videos of you going through the whole design process
I loved this, it really helped me to decorate my space so much. I hope you continue this, it's great
You are the most normal person and I so appreciate your comments. Thank you.
I love your advice! How you encourage people to use things they love! I studied interior design 35 years ago when we still designed using a drafting table and pencil and ink. I left the business to raise a family. I was always bothered by trends and homes that were just to look at not to live in. My philosophy is like yours, use things you love, spend a little more on a sofa and thrift tables for the room. I love a good DIY challenge. Keep up the great work you are doing!
love this type of video! would love to see more of these AND updates from the subscribers if they send them in! that would be pretty cool
Caroline you’re a treasure. Enjoyed this format so much.
I was hoping you would do an episode about art pieces! Like how to arrange them and also how to pair them on a wall if mixing diff pieces. You mentioned art being good way to add color to your space and also making your space feel like a home and I, as of now, have not adding anything to my walls so far out of fear bc I do not know how to add things and mix them. So I’m stuck. Thanks so much
This is absolute gold. I came here worn out and disillusioned from watching high end interior design gurus. You are such a breath of fresh air, I love how you took everyone's requests into consideration!
Girl! I love your intros lol. And the new haircut looks gorgeous. Thanks for all the awesome content : D
Thank u!!😍
I love hearing your solutions! They are applicable in so many other rooms!
this is what i love to hear!
I love how kind you were at the beginning of each critique !
And very much appreciate the tips you gave: layering, looking at your closet, so many good nuggets in this video! The split screen showing *multiple* photo examples of your suggestions is incredibly helpful! You make design less intimidating and more palatable.
My husband and I are looking to buy our first house soon and honestly your bedroom will be my inspo for the styling!! Maybe I'll be lucky enough to be sending you a little video soon and you'll help me in your next video!!
Amazing!!!!
ah amazing! and i hope the home hunt goes well, thats so exciting!!
😂 babys love mirrors - they can’t get over themself 😂😂😂 Great design advise + great humor. Loved this episode. Makes me miss your make-overs less (if that makes sense) can’t wait for spareroom episode 2 👏👏👏
This is amazing. And I love that you covered actual design principles rather than just “this is how I would decorate it.” With that said, I would recommend for the next submissions (because I hope you make lots more of these videos!) to ask for a bit of info about their style preference so you are able to guide more and give examples more suited for them.
love it, great idea!
@@Caroline_Winkler agree with this suggestion! I know it'll probably take up more of your time and this is not a full design consultation so maybe you could just make a quick template of basic questions and send the same one to everyone whose videos you choose - that way you could get some addtl info without it adding up too much time/effort.
I'm binge watching you for the past 5 days! Really love how you express yourself! And finally inspired to really shift my spaces! I know it'll make a huge deal and help me evolve personally as well (I hope))). And it was super cool picking your brain, and understanding how design and organisation work (yes, I found your channel thanks to your "viral" video. And yes - knee thingy kinda makes you feel sexy and mysterious coupled with a headband)). And also your personality gives me some cool feelings and qualities, I don't know if I can explain it here. Thank you!
OMG the LEGGINESS tip. I just looked over at my living and room and I was like THAT'S IT.
This was great, I enjoyed watching this and course I love your personality.
I loved this Caroline! I'm definitely gonna have to submit a room. I have the hardest time with finishing touches 😬
please do, i'd love to help if i can! form is attached in the video description!
For the second girl all I want is for her to line that wall with trailing plants! It’s across from that huge window and it would look divine!
Hahaha the lamp “from another world we don’t belong to”….Would love to see the after pics….thank you all for sharing your space😍Great commentary!!!!
I’ve lived in Tacoma my whole life! I’m a new fan of yours. You’re getting me interested in decorating again. Maybe. At the very least you are entertaining me. Thank you.
I’m always so inspired by your design direction! tiny caveat since this channel is monetized I’d be careful about using imagery without credits… i.e William Morris wallpaper and other reference images used throughout the vid…
Ahh didn’t think of that, THANK YOU! Will do🙌❤️
I love how you affirm everyone. Not only are you funny and down-to-earth, but you are feeling and caring. That’s why you are becoming so popular. Much success to you!💚
Sooooo.........here is the first episode of your new hit series.! I could watch it all day!! Only downside is, if you take off with this (and you will), I will really miss your other vlogs/videos! (in fact I''ve often thought you should be creating/writing a sitcom, who knows, maybe both design and sitcom in your future!!!!)
I enjoyed seeing other people’s spaces and what you can do with the space!
Dude! So cool to get a glimpse of your process!
Loved this video so much, i love that youre helping real people with real dilemmas in real spaces, so fun! 💚
Loved loved loved this - I learned so much and tookaway so much I could apply to my own space. Yes please more of these!
Yes- would love more episodes like this
I gasped out loud at the first video's banquet idea!!! LOVE!
One of my favorite videos from you! Love it! Should do this once a month!
Yes yes yes!! I love this type of video so much- the most helpful design videos that any UA-camrs do and I absolutely love the way you did it!
I’ve learned to decorate my room & organize it better based off your videos. I appreciate all your content. And you’re hilarious. I appreciate your sarcasm & witty self, lol
I have 2 giant vertical Chinese scrolls from my parents. They are subdue, beautiful, and I love them in my living room, along with a mirror and plants.
I also love Japanese touches in table clothes, curtains, and pillow shams on a neutral color sofa.
Just my 2 cents 😊
When you told that subscriber that she did not have to have a coffee table, it was transformational. Hard to believe I had to learn that on UA-cam! :) Thanks to you both.
The "purpose" of my LR floor is pretty much Pilates and plants.
Stay well.
omg please make this a series I loved this so much!!
Definitely more watcher design tips!! Loved this❤
Please make more of these! I learned so much!
More of these! This was fun and educational.
Yes, more videos like this please 😃 So insightful the way you describe things, thank you for providing me some inspiration!
Yes! More of these types of videos, please!
This was such a helpful video! Love the teaching us how to fish part, makes all your advice more generally applicable. I need more of these!
omg I LLOve this type of video. Never gets old imo.
I'm so glad I found your channel. Please make this a series!
I just love the way you think and how you support individuality!
I love this video! You have a great eye and your suggestions where realistic and affordable. thank you!!
Love everything you have designed in your spaces & your Mom's guest room. Please do more of this type of video.
This was actually so cool. I could watch you do this all day
I love this segment. Please do more, Caroline! You're killing it, girl.
This was one of my favorite video styles you have done so far!! I love it!!!
This was fabulous and educational. I am looking forward to seeing more. I also appreciate your candor and witty humor. Keep it coming, Caroline!
Loved this!! That you so much for giving us a view into your thought process and the loving way you approach each individual’s room and their needs. Plus, you’re videos are just so cozy and friendly! Love watching them. 😌❤️❤️
i LOVE this and if this becomes a series, i would tune in every single time! im a new subscriber (i found your channel like a week or two ago) and i love your design tastes and way of thinking. i know nothing about design but you present it in such a simple digestible way, it has quite literally opened my eyes and see what i want and get out of my living spaces. THANK YOU
Loved this please do more! Brillent and so helpful. Great ideas on your part and love the positivity.
This video is great! We need a series please!!❤️
Totally on-point, intelligent design advice. This is where you shine, Caroline! 🌟
I really love this type of video! Please do more!
Great video, Caroline! You truly gave such creative and thoughtful suggestions to each space. You are very knowledgeable with design.
I’m fairly new to your channel and I love your content. You’re giving thoughtful, personalized (as much as you can with the info you’ve been given) advice, and I’m here for it. Thanks for what you do!
I would like more of these design dilemma videos with your design tips. eg. the tips regarding balancing. Do you ever do chalk painting furniture videos or examples of repurposing existing furniture? Thanks!
You make me smile. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and humor. 😊
This was fun! I love looking at peoples homes, always have, I was such a freakin nosey kid! I love that your advice is so universal, I've been applying so many tips I've picked up from your videos to my house lately! I've never felt like I knew how to make my house feel homely, but you've helped me get my head around where to start. Thank you so much
This is gold, i would so much like to see more of this!
I loved this video! Would love to see more like it. It is always so fun to see how to process through a real live space and how to break it down into small steps to make a cohesive whole. I also loved what you said at the end about not apologizing for a room or what you have/don't have. I love how you can notice people and encourage us where we are at...through youtube!?! Girl, you don't even know us! How are you speaking to our souls?!?! You are doing great work Caroline Angelica, thank you for sharing it with us.
This is so helpful! Can't get enough of this format and solving real problems in real lived in homes 💜
