@@kb3716I am 63 and have watched Paige since the beginning too. She is adorable and this old lady adores her. I am happy to see that I have a cohort in this community. Hugs and love ladies. I haven't seen the Golden Bachelorette, but I am going to watch it now and check out Mejuri jewelry too. That ring was beautiful.
Completely agree with everything in this video-there’s nothing I’d add except to emphasize the impact of adding texture. Mixing different textures, both tactile and visual, can really elevate a space. For example, I love textured fabrics, and even the wrinkled look of paper of a Noguchi lamp bring layers and interest to a space. I’ve invested in custom curtains, lighting with dimmers and three-way switches, and original art and antiques. While these pieces can be pricey, they’re worth it for the personality and warmth they bring and I was able to plan it overtime. For decor, I often find affordable items from small shops on Etsy that reflect my style. my next project per your list is repainting and color drenching my closet and bathroom.
The only open shelving I disagree with is in the kitchen. There's too much grease and schmutz around all the time that the doodads and dishes and glasses need cleaning all time. Annoying. Otherwise! Full wall bookcase with books, of course, punctuated with doodads over here. I could easily fill an hour describing the significance of each item on the shelves. Each has a story and/or meaning. I can sit and stare at them endlessly ❤
Since graduate school and the little incremental boosts in income over the years, I have purchased forever pieces (vintage kilims) and have reupholstered some family "gifts" (e.g., the feral tabby that Dad rescued chased the pointer and - "don't mind the blood stains - would you want this white linen slipper chair?"). Every year or two, I upgrade a few items and it's all cohesive. I have Bauhaus-design dining chairs with a French-looking table and an antique Chinese cabinet in my dining room. I agree with mixing styles. I moved from a 30's Craftsman-style bungalow to a 1940 cottage-style house and replacing the big, tufted sofa and main armchair from more traditional to mid-century worked so well - the houses are roughly the same size (1000 sq feet), yet I love this version of my living room.
This is one of the best decorating videos I’ve seen. Every single idea is golden. I am looking at every room with your ideas at the forefront, and I cannot keep putting off getting window coverings. Thanks so much.
This was a great one! Gotta mix. As someone who used to sell window treatments I have to agree! I now sell furniture and unless you want to live in an advertisement you need to mix styles, colors and textures.
These are such great tips, thank you!!!! Just wanted to mention something about the rice paper you talked about because it’s actually one of the cheaper options for lamps since it isn’t very sturdy. If you’re looking for the best paper you could get, washi paper is definitely it. It has a really nice texture, rich color, and is super durable, making it feel more timeless. Finding lampshades or lamps with washi paper is actually kind of hard, but I finally tracked one down, and it was totally worth it 😊
You are so right about window treatments, I moved into my first house in September. It had no curtains, and I felt so exposed all the time, and once I got the double curtain and drape set up in the dining room, cohesion set up in the kitchen and bedrooms slowly over time, it really makes the fastest and biggest difference in how you feel in your home.
I agree! I’ve been wondering why she hasn’t posted a video on bathrooms yet? She already did all the research when she did the shot for her shower curtains.
solid advice and observations per usual! saying peeps on the golden bachelorette are old people … ouch! I am in my mid 50s -when you said the part about having a soft spot for the woman bc you’ve always loved ‘old people’ I was like oh shit. … no she didn’t! I thought I must have misunderstood you. Anyway thanks for the reality slap. Thank god I have a soft spot for creative brats that are into interior design! 😂 I really do love you and your channel ! FWIW it was a 57 yo friend of mine who recommended your channel to me!
Phillips Hue light bulbs - full color spectrum. You can make them auto dim on an app, and can make them any warmth or color you want. Having orangey yellow lighting is super cozy, it’s a game changer
I’m going to invest in plantation shutters and curtains for my home since it fits the style of the home. I have a lot of windows and sliding glass doors and the window dressing are bringing the vibe down.
Mid-Michigander here. Just had my 67th birthday in September, and have been a sub for a while now. Most of the wood in my house is a warm tone, but mixed with a few cooler tones. No matchy-matchy in my life. Just can't do it. Nope. I find vintage curtains at thrift stores a lot, sometimes still in their old, original packaging.
Pro tip! Home brewed mate mixed with (any kind) sugar free lemonade is so good! And a lot less sugar. I used to drink yerba mates like it was my job but the sugar crash got to me and that’s my alternative and it’s GOOD
Fully redesigning my bathroom and would love to see a video of bathroom design ideas. Love your style and would love to see how you would incorporate different paint colors with tiles addressing how we can design a bathroom with character that's classic/timeless and maybe even your WAS shower curtains??
I very much enjoy your channel and content. I think it would be interesting if you did a series whereby you addressed one design feature at a time, for example, window treatments. You could talk about length, solids vs. pattern, weight, hardware, etc. Many people don’t know what kinds of window treatments might be best for their space or window or how different treatments interact with sunlight and wall color. I think it’d be great if you offered us some guidelines. ❤
You do have to get lucky to find custom thrifted drapes. Over all my years thrifting I have a pretty good collection of them but you're not wrong, it's rare to thrift them. When I have found them, I feel so lucky, like I won the lottery. Custom drapes are so expensive to have made and when you find them thrifted, it feels like a gold mine!
Great video - you are a funny girl. I am 70 plus and looking forward to checking out 'Golden Bachelorette' Who knew! Also I am fully on board with your Rule of 3 but it needs another name as that one already exists in design.
Well, as I (highly unexpectedly) scored a full house on this, i guess you are obliged to think my house is stylish!! Even despite the lingering chaos... & the bookcase I just painted pink (it's a very muted pink I mixed myself). The only colour I really struggle with is primary red. All my curtains are thrifted from charity shops & car boot sales in Norfolk, UK. Great vid Paige, thankyou!
I agree about the towels. I do have a couple white ones, but they are textured. On the other hand, I hate super dark towels, like dark brown, black, or burgundy--ugh. Dark ones pick up lint over time and to me just look cheap. I also hate towels that are enormous and super thick. I'm not wasting my $$ drying those. My favorite are the ones that are somehow silky or velvety -feeling, very soft. I think they have some bamboo fiber in them.
instead of calling it the rule of 3 you could call it the time traveler rule or something like that because its all about taking elements from different time periods in design
All my window treatment is thrifted. My favorite curtains are two shower curtains that were sewn together (how big was that shower?). I ripped the seams and hemmed the edge. I cannot believe it looks so lux.
My favorite bulbs are by Govee. They have a great app and I have my entire living room automated to dim and go warmer in the evening. It doesn't get a lot of natural light but the lighting really helps to fake it. 5000K during the day and 2700K at night!
For lightbulbs, unless money is no issue, go with IKEA smart home stuff. Control all lightbulbs with remotes/dimmers and/or phone app. Buy the lights that can be dimmed as well as go from cold light to warm light.
I hit your list on nearly everything. I’m in a beach house with a lot of very large windows. Several windows have no window treatment at all because they look out on the water and hills. Others have simple pleated fabric blinds. I feel like they suit the space because when they’re open, which is 90% of the time, they leave the entire space open to sunlight. The one area I would like to add something different is the primary bedroom, but I’m not sure what to do with a very large window. The room is small with a California king bed so I feel like anything in this room needs to be minimal. The one space in my house that I feel is off is our office. It’s the largest bedroom in the house at 14’ x 20’, and the one I spend the most time in because I’m the “back office“ for our business. There’s nothing really cohesive in this space. There is a separate sitting area with a chair and a half and an old tufted wing back chair that was my Nonna’s. I had Nonna’s chair reupholstered. My sister gave me a very comfy, massive, rolled arm chair and a half. I’m having both of these slipcovered so that will help. But honestly, the rest of the office could use some help. I would love to see more larger home office design ideas. The one area I felt you skipped and I know it’s not your favorite thing, is plants. I am blessed to have a home flooded with natural light and feel it would be sacrilegious not to have a few big-ass plants! I have four large Monstera and a 5’ tall Dracena. I also have a few smaller plants and tiny air plants. I also have a garden and a front porch jammed with plants and flowers. So I realize I’m a bit of a plant nut. But I do feel that every space should have at least one plant… something living and green in their space. It’s something to care for and nurture. Note: I love that you’re pronouncing “curtain“ with the ‘T’ annunciated.😆❤️
stay true to yourself is dangerous advice bc my mom would happily live in an empty grey box, but if you invite guests over and they see that they’ll think you’re a serial killer.
Our taste and style couldn’t be more different, but as I watched the video, I kept nodding, and saying, yes, I’ve done that. Kudos to you for developing these concepts, so helpful and accessible.
Would you have any paint color ideas for bathrooms/half baths that have no windows? Love your idea about painting bathrooms, but I struggle with choosing a color option when the only light source is the bulbs and not natural light.
10:27 Sitting in my dining room. I have a metal bookshelf w glass doors from a high school chemistry lab (ReStore) and an army footlocker--style one. I have Japanese lamps and an Asian-style pendant and a Chinese footstool--style 2. I have a round oak table w Windsor chairs, prob 70s--style 3. Okay, I got it!
the love bombing. ha! i am all in on purple. and green. Would you say your rule of three has a ratio or portion? or nah? i was thinking you could name it "The Triple Touch" if you want three things but just a touch of each? also, if you still want to do AD reviews would you be into reviewing Heidi Gardner's AD tour? i liked it a lot! also, I was focused on that metal cabinet intensely and the jump ad scare got me.
The series of images of classic Shaker items with the description "boring" (then changed to "classic") made me laugh. As someone who grew up around this style of furniture (my dad specialized in Shaker woodworking in his first career), I'm perfectly fine if people overlook it. More for me!
Light bulbs - if for some reason you can't get a dimmer for your light and don't want to spend a lot on smart bulbs, there are 3 step dimmers out there. It's just a normal light bulb, turn it on once and you get 100% light, turn it on again you get 50%, and turn it on again you get 25% light. Great alternative. :)
On the topic of art/gallery walls - it really breaks the usual look if you mix up the shape of art. Like don't just hang ten square frames on the wall. For example, in my kitchen I put a small square painting of a lemon that I made myself and the some random ceramic fish I found when shopping for souvenirs on vacation. Now it just needs a third piece - sort of a rule of threes too - to finish it off, but I am still looking for the perfect thing
@@wasselpa fantastic video once again. Excellent points. I was laughing thinking about how many viewers were looking around their room counting the design styles. For me: antique, mid century, industrial and probably a couple more…maybe too many.

You can't thrift them. takeaways: - personality is key - roman shades are great - personally, i'd check the feng shui rules regarding the mirror tip
I have decor from the 1970's, early American period, mid-century and current. I actually had a guest over who proclaimed that my decor was all from the same era - I guess that means she's either blind, or that they all look good together.
Hi Paige, huge thanks for some great tips! How would you proceed if your apartment actually has warm-wood fishbone floor throughout the whole apartment (except for the kitchen where the floor is made of white wooden planks) but you're also a fan of teak and warm wood modernist pieces? I want to avoid my apartment looking like an orange/brown land. :D Also, all the walls are white. Thank you!🥰
Great video...i am thinking about a purple stairway/corridor. Can i send you one or two pictures and ask for your opinion on that? Cheers from Germany.
Paige, could you explain what size lampshade to get for a given lamp base? Say a rectangular base that's 15 inches high and 4 inches square in cross-section?
Not that I would disagree on getting quality window treatments but I’ve thrifted every set of curtains in my home. Granted a lot of them are just white linen/linen look or sheer to maximize sunlight, but I find it bizarre when interior say you can’t thrift curtains when thrift stores are overflowing with curtains. Finding high quality ones that work in your space? Sure can be hard, but you can do it. eBay and resellers also exist.
I am an incandescent bulb devotee. Unfortunately, they are harder and harder to find. I don’t care how “warm” your LED light bulb is or how low you dim it, the glow and light they cast is just not the same. It’s come down to my having to hoard incandescent bulbs. 😢 I have acquiesced to using LEDs on the front porch, however. 💡

15 Items Paige thinks are important for a stylish home (but i counted 14, wtv)
W: THERE IS A JUMPSCARE IN THIS VIDEO
01:05 #1 Warm Wood
02:25 #2 At least one unique piece of art (thrifted, personal)
04:05 #3 Large mirror
05:15 #4 Curate random, collectibles or quirky items and put them on display
06:40 #5 At least one lamp with a fabric shade (softer glow, rice paper works too)
07:50 #6 Open shelving
09:40 #7 Get warm LED light bulbs
10:26 #8 Pick things from different eras of design (not all trendy, not all danish, etc)
_____> 11:32 JUMPSCARE + Ad
12:52 #8 Continuation: Mix styles
13:43 #9 If you can only paint one room, paint the bathroom
14:55 #10 Don't get white towels, make them unique
16:08 #11 Have a bowl, tray or a flower vase in the kitchen
17:40 #12 Have one classic, boring piece of furniture to ground the design
19:13 #13 Have a rug.
19:22 #14 Invest in window treatments, curtains. You can't thrift them.
takeaways:
- personality is key
- roman shades are great
- personally, i'd check the feng shui rules regarding the mirror tip
hahahaha when I was editing I realized I only did 14 oops
Great topic!
25 seconds ago??? Perfect timing.
What do you do with too much wood? As in cabin like knotty pine paneling and orange oak kitchen cabinets… as a renter !! Ugh what is anti wood? Metal?
Metal, glass, stone, acrylic, fibreglass.
Can you please make a video on the bachelor mansion decor lol
Omg that's such a good idea! And other tv-show sets too, both fictional and reality.
Hey Paige! I have a tomato shaped salt and pepper shakers that I thrifted. I would love to gift it to you.
Yup. 🙋♂️ I said that girl is stunning
I wouldn’t say classic is boring, love the pieces you showed here 🙂
I have decor from the 1970's, early American period, mid-century and current. I actually had a guest over who proclaimed that my decor was all from the same era - I guess that means she's either blind, or that they all look good together.
Paige, you look really good in gray
great vid thank you
I feel like my biggest problem is i buy really cool pieces but then I can’t get them to work together/my vision always falls flat!
3:25 thank you! thats what ive been saying all along!!! lol ❤
Are you doing any review your subscribers homes soon?
This is the last place on Earth I'd expect a jump-scare 11:33
Hi Paige, huge thanks for some great tips! How would you proceed if your apartment actually has warm-wood fishbone floor throughout the whole apartment (except for the kitchen where the floor is made of white wooden planks) but you're also a fan of teak and warm wood modernist pieces? I want to avoid my apartment looking like an orange/brown land. :D Also, all the walls are white. Thank you!🥰
Great video...i am thinking about a purple stairway/corridor. Can i send you one or two pictures and ask for your opinion on that? Cheers from Germany.
Paige, could you explain what size lampshade to get for a given lamp base? Say a rectangular base that's 15 inches high and 4 inches square in cross-section?
Shakers are catching strays here, there's only two of them left, be nice!
Do you have recommendations for Roman shades? I have some non-standard windows so any custom options that aren’t crazy expensive would be great! ❤
any open shelving recs? particularly some that attach to the wall
Interestingly I tick all the boxes. It gives me hope😂
Not that I would disagree on getting quality window treatments but I’ve thrifted every set of curtains in my home. Granted a lot of them are just white linen/linen look or sheer to maximize sunlight, but I find it bizarre when interior say you can’t thrift curtains when thrift stores are overflowing with curtains.
Finding high quality ones that work in your space? Sure can be hard, but you can do it. eBay and resellers also exist.
I did click on the video because i thought you cut your hair and it was looking amazing
I am an incandescent bulb devotee. Unfortunately, they are harder and harder to find.
I don’t care how “warm” your LED light bulb is or how low you dim it, the glow and light they cast is just not the same. It’s come down to my having to hoard incandescent bulbs. 😢
I have acquiesced to using LEDs on the front porch, however. 💡
Love the top👀 brand?
Paige, you're stunning. Please tell me what to do!
Please give us a list of good paint colours for small bathrooms!
