Starting a new build, it looks like I've covered all my bases. This video was a great source of confirmation.

[@bevfast865]

These videos are the best! Thank you Maria,...for cutting to the chase, and helping make good sense of the how's and the why's to good design decision making! So Good ! Thank you!

[@betsyschaffitzel5127]

Wonderful info! You have fabulous pearls of decorating wisdom that makes so much sense! You always look so beautiful! Love your colors!

[@lisahunter6556]

Can you discuss sometime how to choose historically appropriate colors for various types of houses (colonial, Greek revival, craftsman, etc)? Thank you!

[@nadiahamid1530]

I am so glad I came across your channel ❤❤❤ and more excited that you are in Canada ❤❤❤ hope you come to Toronto one day. May I ask what colors you are wearing (jacket+top) and what color paint in Benjamin Moore I could find it? Thank you for all the amazing videos

[@crazyliv]

I'm starting a big renovation in our dated condo and this is so helpful to make decisions

[@wendydavis8004]

Great information

[@katerynapiriieva4795]

Hi, maria❤ your blog is like a bible 😅. If i choose checkeredfloor for my foyer , shood the light part of tile be warm white , if l prefer warm white on walls?))) the dark part of checkeredfloor can be grey or blue/grey ? Or black marble? Love you so much ❤

[@debbyalder4089]

Thanks Maria … I have pretty much done as you have suggested … listening to you has helped me feel more confident with our choices ! However … still feel that you can make mistakes with paint colour!! Which I did !! 😳. I know a lot of people would say to repaint … but it is still too expensive to repaint lots of rooms! I’m hoping that my furniture choices will be complimenting my colour choices! Looking forward to your free course this January … I will need to be very careful with the timing as I’m in Australia ! I love all 5he colours that you wear …. and also love your yellow couch …. I’m hoping to have a vibrant teal one!! Wish me good planning!! 😊

[@MariaKillamDesigner]

You'll want my Mood board course if you are shopping for furniture to coordinate with your paint colours, it will save you a lot of time and headaches. mariakillam.com/shop-online-with-colour-confidence/

[@Follypalm]

I did the mood board course and it’s awesome! Great way to buy furniture and accessories!

[@karenhanson359]

I agree with everything except the all knobs in the bathroom. Cords get caught on those so easily… they’re infuriating 🥴 Here we have to go with function over form… unless it’s the powder room that no one will do their hair or use hair appliances in, bc in that case it doesn’t matter 😁

[@MariaKillamDesigner]

Interesting, that has never happened to me. I would avoid the pulls that are in my video however, there's a recipe for cords catching on everything x 2

[@LULC0759]

We had the worst builder in our last build. Custom supposedly builder. Had to choose our counters months into the build, after all other selections. Who does that? Then they systematically screwed it all up….still fighting them.

[@MyLogHomeLife]

Did you get references for this builder prior to contracting with them? A word to the wise!

[@LULC0759]

@@MyLogHomeLife oh yes, we’re not novices. It’s our 5th build. ….they were rated one of the best in our area at the time. They fell apart during the pandemic. Yet still peddling how great they are and taking people. They just opened up in a neighboring state also.

[@70sladyalways25]

I’m currently building a new home. The choices are overwhelming! I made sure to try and not do trendy things. This was a great video! Thanks so much for all the useful information 😊

[@KraftyPaws]

Ever use white kitchen cabinets with white lightly grey- veined quartz countertops with medium brown wood floors? Or is that too much white?

[@kristenmitchellglasser1306]

Where do I find the recording of your January session?

[@crazyliv]

Does the fireplace have to match even if our kitchens are not open concept?

[@divinelittledog9797]

Regarding tile: I believe I heard Maria say “stay away from 12x24 tile. Did I hear correctly? Would love to hear more on this topic. I follow on ig. Maybe a good post for ig??

[@alexandrarossetti4919]

May I ask which cabinet line your blue master bath cabinet is from?

[@MariaKillamDesigner]

It was custom made but my sister bought a similar style from Home Depot.

[@cbhynes]

Following this system right now! Maria’s advice is sooo helpful!
