- Опубліковано 6 жов 2024
- Welcome to my first home vlog! It’s October and I have some new additions to my home, plus a haul of some exciting NEW and secondhand finds I’ve recently picked up from Facebook Marketplace, online, in-store, thrift stores, and estate sales. Plus, I need your input on what to do with some areas in my home! I’ll be taking you through my living room, guest bedroom/home office (which is where I have the most exciting news), and my primary bedroom. Let me know in the comments what you think!

THAT PRINT IN THE LIVING ROOM BOOKCASE OF THE 3 PEOPLE AT A COUNTER SIPPING COFFEE. IM OBSESSED. WOW. Girl, keep it up. You're so gentle and wholesome and I'm constantly inspired by you when I'm browsing thrift stores.
Have you tried swapping that plant to the left side of that new print? theres more white space in the print and would cover the people less. just swap the books and the plant on that shelf? :)
me too: thought I didn't like anything contemporary but lately getting drawn to certain modern pieces!
Oooo, I love the black leather chair! It looks like coziest nook over there! I hope you keep it!
Regarding the chair that has been clawed up, I recently had a conversation with an upholsterer. She told me that cats dislike velvet and will not claw it. I think is probably the most valuable information for cat owners!
I love everything you’ve done… However, I would KEEP the black chair no matter what! The beauty so outweighs its over size…..to me any way….as long as it’s comfy!
Let's get LK to 40k!!! You're looking so pretty girl! Great hauls! What a score, that's a Jim Nelson light (George's brother). 😉 How about a basket with a lid or trunk for your blankets?
I am not a designer but if you put a blanket and cushions on the black chair maybe that would look nice.
I love that you show how you continue to layer and change your space! I am obsessed with the idea of collecting perfume samples....I'm definitely going to steal that idea. I'll be on the hunt for the perfect container for them. I am always shocked to see large collections of full size perfume bottles, that will go bad before they are ever used up!!
This is the latest I've ever waited to decorate for fall, as we are cleaning up from the hurricane. I live in one of the hardest hit areas on the border of South and North Carolina.....so we are just happy to finally have power, running water, and have survived with very little damage to our home. Our best friends lost their house to eight large trees, crushing it to the ground.
I enjoyed spending 20 minutes hanging out in your home, gathering ideas for my own home!
I am really sorry you have had to go through such a bad time, and especially what your friends have gone through, losing their home. My best wishes to all of you.
@@Nats99 Thank you for your kind words!❤️
Wooden mail holder might work in the bathroom for guest hand towels, would keep the black chair for a while in the lounge, often when you get something new it sort of puts your design off because you are so use to the lighter chair look but I think it's cool, great video, too many interesting things to comment on, I love doing mini refreshes especially for seasons and like you often find a new scheme works even better. Take care.
This is totally beside the point, but your hair looks SO good today!
I agree! It’s fire!
Love the updates! You’ve quickly become one of my favs on UA-cam now! And agree on mixing up the materials with more chrome and metal to balance out the warm woods. ❤
aw thank you that’s so cool! 😊 and of course once I finished this video I found a chrome frame haha
I enjoyed seeing how your home is evolving. Lots of great updates! I definitely like the new arrangement of the LR bookcase better than the previous version, but as always with styling, things change and transform as we acquire new things that push us into a direction we hadn't previously considered.
I'm having deja vu. I bought an espresso brown leather club chair for my office that didn't fit down the hallway leading to the office. Luckily, it's a great piece for my living room and has become one of my favorite places to sit. If you really love that chair, (which is a REALLY cool piece) maybe there's a way to incorporate it into your living space. I'd think on it awhile before selling it.
I really think if you got rid of the small chair and moved out the black leather on the diagonal it does go in the living room. The sofa maybe moved over just a couple of inches and a throw to tone down the black on the chair
I keep feeling that chair would fit through most doors. Team lift on its side. Pivot midway as you move through the door. Picture the chair rolling around the edge of the wall that holds the door. (I did this with a loveseat by unscrewing the feet of the loveseat and the extra 2 inches helped.)
Yes! We had to do that with the existing chair I have in my office but this one is literally 14 inches bigger and it just would not work we tried for hours :(
Love the new vignette of the sketch art+plant+stork! And I'd keep the black leather chair: it's not only stylish but looks too comfortable to get rid of, so would try new positioning or restyling - anything to be able to still have & enjoy it
Aloha from the PNW! Happy Sunday evening! Re: the telephone table that holds the blankets, have you considered something like a black metal/wrought iron unit? You use black very well in your home’s decor, and the metal would work nicely with the Mediterranean/mid-century modern theme already in the two rooms. Just a thought….😊
“I guess this is what she wants to do with her life…” (re:cat) 😂
😹🥰
Yep...loved that too 😅
😂
We used to have that canister set when I was growing up. Cool.
Love it all. The black chair especially. I’ve been lucky enough to live on ground level places so we’ve been able to fit oversized furniture through windows when they wouldn’t fit thru doorways!
Love your updates, achievable changes affordable and quick, thank you. Also can't wait for the breakfast knock make over. 😊
Thanks Gina! : )
Gina NOOK, NOOK, NOOK! 😊
Everything looks wonderful and the casual update is fun!
:) Thanks Amanda!
Very nice tour. So ya wanna get that chair in the room you showed.. as you were sitting by the window I was trying to estimate the size of the window VS the size of the chair. IMPOSSIBLE 😂 BUT, it looks like a good size opening! I feel bad that you like it so much for that room but can't get it there. Good luck with the measurements and I hope it's possible! Lol, AIR DROP!!!
Happy Sunday beautiful lady 💗
Thank you LK. I like the leather chai. On camera it seems to work but I know that’s different from being in space. Thanks for your chann.
Love your channel! Great job. I love solid color drapes but I got some patterned ones for my living room and they are awesome. I think that a beautiful patterned curtain would bring your living room to life. Right now, your drapes are blending into your walls making it look bland. I've done it before too. 12:42
Thanks! I have to disagree, I really love the drapes as they’re a creamy canvas color and the walls are more pure white so there’s definitely a contrast. I don’t think at this time I want to add more drama to the walls/windows with louder curtains. I might get another color eventually but for now I really love it!
I'm sure that it looks way better in person 😊@@livingwithlk
Love the updates, your color choices and generally your decorating aesthetic. I totally agree with your statement about avoiding a boring color palette
Thanks so much!
I love your place, black leather is nice for furniture because you can use so many colors with it to change the look.. I have cigar boxes that I love .. I have made key holders with a couple of them and hung them up in the wall,, just wanted to share …😊
Love the casual check-in! Love the show and tell style of all your recent finds, big and small.
That’s exactly how I do my pillows. They all come in handy for watching TV in bed.
I love the green blanket in the bed, adds a lot of texture.
Your fiddle fig is doing great and love the pot. They love summer out, in shade and remember to water.
I love how you are experimenting with your bed linens. Texture is really "in" right now and I have been adding that to my bedding to experiment with it. I love your blue-greens, it's my favorite color and so soothing with browns, tans, and neutrals. You have such an eye for detail, and a passion for surrounding yourself with things that move you. And you keep it affordable, it's fun isn't it lol?!?
I love the texture you brought into your bedding! I have a brown tabby named Lucy, and ya, that's what they want to do with their life. Lucy works her way between the bed pillows and sleeps there.
I like the new leather chair. It looks so comfortable! I agree with your commenter who suggested that you may want to try putting a pillow or blanket on it to tie it in with your other furniture. You may want to try that and keep the chair for awhile to see if you change your mind. Thanks for another interesting video!
I appreciate you showing us unique places to purchase decor.
I would absolutely photo copy plant plans (maybe enlarge it a bit or do a group) with the chrome frames!
I think when u get rid of the old chair in the living room, the leather one is going to fit perfectly there!
As always, great content. Your bed is looking especially comfy. Don’t blame the kitty for not wanting to move.
I love this style of video! Very realistic and a nice break from feeling like everything has to be a dramatic makeover. Your kitty is soooo cute
The back of the chair probably clips into/out from the bottom... check for little levers to push in down the inside sides.
I thought there was an option but sadly I think I’d be breaking the chair to disassemble we tried for like two hours haha
I think the black leather chair would be a great replacement for the wood-framed chair in your living room. It’s a new element that would balance the wood overwhelm and the planned chrome additions you want to make.
I totally agree! I just think it’s size overpowers the coffee table and couch :/
About your chair… Usually the back comes off this type of chair. Pull straight up on it and see if that works. If you get the back off, you should be able to get the chair through the doorway if it doesn’t come off I still think you can get it through the doorway by turning it sideways and pivoting through the doorway, I’ve done this before. Lol not by myself of course.
Have you tried the black chair where the wooden one currently sits in the living room?
yes :( it’s just too big it overpowers the room and feels obtrusive. I thought about showing you guys but I forgot haha cause that was our next idea! so bummed but honestly it just doesn’t work
New subscriber here. I love all your insight and how you have actual practical advice for everyone. I'm done having babies (4 kids 7 and under) so I'm ready to start transforming my home, and your videos helping me so much. Currently binging your vids, and hello from a fellow Californian (OC) 👋🏽
Possibly fit through the windows in the office or any close windows
Really enjoyed this video. Love your home, vibe & cats!💗
Thank you!! 😊
I adore this channel. Plus I get to creep on the stores/estate sales you go to as a SD local
❤your slow development and the 😻 bed is👌as was the sound, and 🙏 for slowing down your commentary a tad. 👍 from 🇬🇧
You have such great style and you give me a lot of inspiration!
Loved the video! Would love to see the fall garden too.
I L-O-V-E that oil burner!
I’m sad about the black chair because it’s totally cool. Are you sure it does not break down into two pieces? The reason I ask is because recliner chairs are big and bulky and they generally come apart into two pieces for the very reason of moving them into rooms. Check it closely. The back may come apart from the bottom so you can move it easier.
Bookcase looks better
I love all the updates and changes you have made. Everything looks so great ❤❤
Thank you so much!
Love your style. One suggestion: remove tags from EVERYTHING. Makes it look more sophisticated. (I saw one in your bedroom fan cord.)
I like the bedroom looks very cozy.
Another point of view, i love the leather? chair in the office, SO much more than the baggy looking chair that you have in the living room now. Your look feels a bit more delicate and not quite so "casual" as that chair to me. Just my opinion.
man I love that leather chair!!!❤
Truly! So bummed about it
Omg please keep the chair! Even change out your sofa for something else to balance it better!
Im a new subscriber. I love your approachable decoraring style.
Hi and welcome! 👋🏼😊 Thanks so much!
Is the chair frame one big piece, or could you take the back off rather than the bottom? Even if you can't have it in the office, I think it would be best to hold onto it a while. One day, you may have a eureka moment and find a way to make it work perfectly in the room it's in now.
Hahaha I wish this house was bigger so I could fit it somewhere in this living room - I’ll think on it a bit more… the chair frame is one piece and there’s some tension wires holding it together and it seems as though the upholstery would need to be undone in order to unscrew the whole chair. I took about 5 bolts out and it didn’t work as the tension wires were keeping the arms on the frame. Didn’t want to totally ruin it.
@@livingwithlk It sounds like you've tried everything. Somehow, I hope you find a way.
Nice job. Please don’t get a black leather chair with chrome unless you’re going for modern not mid century modern. Fine of course, it would just be a very different, more hard edged style.
Love the black chair!! Would it fit through the window🤔😂
Fun update!
Could you possibly maneuver the chair through the window?
Are you sure that chair won't fit...pivot...pivot...pivot! (Hope you're not too young for this Friends reference!) 😊
haha I might be! I’m not familiar lol but I seriously tried so hard! everyone commenting today has made me want to try again but I seriously don’t think it’s happening lol
Your very talented
LK, can you get the leather chair through the window?
Love this style of video!!
Yay!
Girl drop the link for the bubble lamp dupe PLEASE!!!
wait you did i'm an idiot sorry lol
haha!! no worries :) it’s so good right?!
this may not work at all, I can't tell how big your windows are, but would the chair fit in a window? I had to do that once with a piece. Well, the movers did, but it didn't fit through the door 🤣
It’s hard to tell the size of your office window but could you bring the chair in through the window?
haha I thought of this! Sadly it’s too small : /
Is it possible that you get the leather chair in your office through the window?
I like the chair shape but not the color. It is just too big a chunk of black and it looks off. The same chair in a warm brown would be great.
Love
Pivot!
😆Maybe Ross should come help move for just the right motivation😅
lol after so many pivot comments I was like what is this reference?! hahaha just googled it - I was too young to be watching that show when it was popular so I guess that’s why I had no idea it was a pop culture moment 😂
DON'T SELL THE CHAIR! Lay it on its side so it's like a C curve it around the door frame top first
Tried that! We tried for 2 hours haha
@@livingwithlk Is window absolutely a no-go either? I guess it could be pricey, but hey, it's not totally inconceivable... The chair you restored looks great, btw! The Alex drawer unit looks like it belongs there. Lovely video!
Don't sell that chair!! Where there's a will there's a way!
haha! I really don’t want to sell but truly this house is so old the windows and doorways are so narrow :/ and unless I got a new couch it just doesn’t work in the living room :(
Would the chair fit through the office window?
Can the chair fit thru the window?
💕🏠💕
Ok blowout 👏🏾👏🏾
