I think the white round mirror gets lost in the wall. Perhaps a larger one out of a natural wicker (like the beaded light) or gold would make a nice statement! When you look at the artwork you love, which color pops out to you? For me, it was the gold/mustard color. I'd look for a large rug with mainly that color or a lighter shade with the same tone (even tone/tone). I think a gold lamp would also look great!

I would get a mustard yellow rug that matches the yellow flower of the artwork. It will add just a little more color to the room without being too busy or overbearing, taking away from the artwork.

I rarely comment on any videos but I do watch and give a thumbs up to all of your videos. Your bedroom decoration is looking a bit Scandinavian. I would love to see baskets and wooden accessories added to your room. Even a wood framed mirror over the desk. The light fixture your considering would tie in nicely with the look. You're correct about the rugs...they aren't right with the artwork that you love. Maybe a nice, large, off white textured rug...again sort of scandinavian. I also love the Mongolian lamb pillows on the bed. I believe you're headed in the right direction...you have great taste....

I love the tapestry artwork pieces. I think you need a rug that matches the intensity of those. It can have a very muted background, but does need at least splashes of those colors. Otherwise the room feels unbalanced as the artwork is very 'weighted' and has nothing to offset it. The pillow helps, but still needs something on the floor to help 'hold' the artwork up.

I agree with some other commenters that mustard yellow is the best option for a rug color, and I like the suggestion to try to find one with large stripes in mustard yellow, neutral/linen, and maybe white. I would steer away from a rug that has a similar design to your wall art pieces, as this will not only be difficult to perfectly match all the colors but it will create visual competition. That pair of stunning artwork pieces should be the focal point!😍 Also, unless you have a huge, open room, it's always best to get one large rug. A tip I learned from my interior designer is to make sure your rug is large enough to set the edges of your furniture into it. You don't want the rug to be an island in the middle of the room with nothing touching it. For this bedroom, I'd make the rug go to within about 12-15" from the walls, or at least the wall behind the bed. If you can't get a large enough rug to also go under the front two legs of the desk, I'd try to at least have it go under one leg. You may have to add some stick-back felt or rubber pads to the bottom of any legs that remain on the wood floor, to balance out the height of the leg(s) on the rug.

Thanks for the video. If I were choosing for the room makeover, I would go with a solid rug in the color of the mustard/gold in the art work. I would also look for a wall mountable lamp instead of the white one - this would save space on the side table. I would hang a mirror (thrifted🙂) over the vanity. The white round one is nice (but if you had guest, they couldn't use it). I would put one of your wooden thrifted bowls on the vanity as a catch all. Use the Pottery Barn light fixture and use a few taller vases on the shelves. You could also go with a sisal rug if you found one. It would give you more flexibility if you wanted to switch out pillows and art work. I would never have offered these suggestions -- but since you asked 😄.

I just adore you & your videos. Thank you for them! As for your spare bedroom - instead of lime & aqua you’re going with burgundy, gold & navy. (Or is it green? It’s hard to tell what the colors are in the artwork.) Since you’re using darker & more vibrant colors I would tone down the white by adding warmth. This is what comes to my mind: Replace the white floating shelves with wood ones OR remove them and just hang artwork; if you want a mirror on that wall find one with a wood frame; instead of the white side table try a small wooden nightstand and a gold or maybe medium green lamp with a natural colored shade; replace the white bedding with a color coordinated blanket or comforter; one large textured neutral area rug (instead of 2 smaller rugs). Lastly, I’m wondering if your beaded chandelier is too small for the room and a larger pendant light or chandelier would look more in step with the room size.

Wow, I am early again! I ❤ it & can’t wait to watch! 😊 25:35 I bought my home in 1999 & it had a hunter green living room & burgundy family room. The home was built in 1990, so I think you are correct in your guess of the 80’s being the appropriate decade for those colors. Of course, I painted all of the walls of the house after I bought it since I am much more of a neutral wall girl:)

My 2 cents on the mirror I would go bigger around (top where it is in level with the window-bottom closer to the top of the shelf). One larger rug with at least the bed side legs under it, so for sure longer than the currant one. Also could do a mirror over the vanity and art in place of the mirror? It looks like a peaceful space. Have fun with it!!

If I have a king bed, I’m gonna have to even go larger lol.

The location of the bed looks awkward in relationship to the door and I suggest trying it on the other walls before committing to where it is now. The lamp on the vanity needs to be smaller and more eye-catching and you can absolutely find one of those while thrifting as well as a nice mirror. You must have several very attractive items in your inventory to use to add personality and pops of color. Being this is your spare room, I would use it as a canvas and play with it and at the same time you can possibly use it as a backdrop for photographing items you are selling. IMO, neither of those rugs work well with those pictures and a nice colored throw on the bed might help tie things together but as I said, you can play with it until you get it exactly the way you want it.

Hi Karen in my opinion I would carry the gray walls into the guest room and then pick up a rug with gray and other colors to match your art. The walls need to warmed up with a color so it doesn't look so sterile. That's my opinion but then again I love using warm colors in my home I am not a cool color person. That's my two cents, enjoy whatever you and Roger decide to do. Happy New Year!!!

I was drifting in Tucson with my daughter-in-law in October and I found the most amazing camel backpack with tons of pockets no Shmootz I paid up for it. It was $12 but this thing is immaculate and absolutely gorgeous. My Husband wanted it and I said no it’s mine. I’m sure it’s about a $50 bag. I tried to look it up and found nothing on it really. I love getting good buys like that. I am carrying the load of my mom and my brother both in facilities. I have all of their stuff I’ve been getting rid of some of it on marketplace but I really got to start an eBay account. I get all the bubble wrap I want from my husband’s work. He’s self-employed. He installs blinds and flooring and he gives me tons and tons of the stuff. He gives me so much bubble wrap that I literally could just make a living selling it on marketplace. Of course I wouldn’t use the word bubble wrap because I’m pretty sure that’s a brand at any rate, I am really scared about sending stuff, but I’ve had good luck buying glassware and breakable things on eBay myself. I do love the glass and breakables L O L. Plus I have Tupperware. I am going to have to see if the Tupperware is trending because I have the real thing and I have vintage Tupperware.

My mother was very design savvy. We had hard wood floors in Michigan. She did one large rug leaving a foot to a foot and a half exposed wood around the room. The bedrooms were all on the second and third floors, we didnt have rugs or carpet up there. Well 7 children all under ten carpet was in the living room we were not! LOL. Im really big help! I love antique white Mom like white. She was an acrylic artist with her walls covering her walls. Most people hang their art to high and their curtians to low. A must worth enquiring and Googling. Many shows are painting baseboards and walls same color. Even the quarter rounds same color. My house in Michigan the baseboards are trimmed out a different color the quarter round staind to match wood floors. My trim seems to pull my eyes to the floor and around the room. Its to small a house with all this trim business. Wishing you and yours a very Merry Christmas Season and Happy New Year!

Bedroom reset - Expected Guests or in preparation for selling and moving to Florida? When we moved last, from a 2 story house my wife and I built, to retire at the lake, one of our criteria this time was to only look at single story houses. Being older now and having a knee repair, it was time to stop going up and down stairs so often. Basements stairs are probably common in older Pennsylvania homes (like my own birth place in Michigan) because of the frost depth mandating tall foundations, but its more likely Florida homes will offer more single story choices. 😉

A darker shade of yellow, like the flower in your artwork, would be so pretty for the rug. I’d be tempted to get one with a deeper pile to cozy up to the bed. Put airy pale yellow sheers at the window to soften the blinds. A gold framed round mirror above the table and chair would add depth. Layer a small printed throw or quilt over the end of the bed ( be sure the print is very small but picks up the colors in your artwork. For the wall across from the bed, I would pick up several large, flat baskets/trays in different shapes and sizes as a “collection”. After randomly hanging them on the wall, you could intersperse a few very tiny framed nature prints (perhaps real mounted butterflies or real pressed leaves). A different option for the same wall would be a long, narrow shelf placed up quite high. On the narrow shelf place small natural prints or objects. Attach pegs to the lower part of the same shelf and interchange vintage clothing items that match the other decor. Use decorative wooden hangers for the clothing. Adorable! I love your channel and have learned so much about the value of my personal items. Thanks for all your hard work and dedication. I’ve recently retired after 45 years of teaching first graders and an in the process of redoing my house room by room.

Hi Karen, I would do a solid color for the rugs, maybe a yellow or red? Then you can go a little more loud on the art? ❤ You and Roger. You both have great energy.

Hi Karen. I remember hunter green and burgundy from the 80s, and not really in a good way. Am I jaded? Hmmm, not sure. The little room will come together now that you’re in motion. A large mirror over the vanity would be lovely. I would go with a neutral rug, maybe sisal, and keep the color options open for the bedding. Lots of opportunity for seasonal pops of color if your base is neutral. The pictures are great too! Happy New Year 🎆 ❤

My taste in furnishings is very different than yours, so take my advice with a grain of salt 😊. I would buy just one very much larger rug. I would flip the bed and the vanity. If you want to keep the room looking very simple, I would do shades of green and white or navy blue and white. Add beautiful artwork and a small round comfy chair with a soft afghan. Plants and a few books. Love your videos!

I don't think the bed would fit where the vanity is. It looks like it would be blocked by the radiator cover.

Love your videos😊 Your bedroom makeover needs a large rug. We sometimes put small things in a small room. You need a larger table and lamp. What about moving the bed closer to the window instead of everything pushed against the walls? The side table can go in the center of the windows that might help. I think the bed cover/coverlet would really look nice if it had some color & pattern. We kniw you can make it look nice and comforting 😊

Karen, You can never go wrong with a neutral rug. I would look for one that has texture or a design weaved in it for added interest. A neutral rug allows you to change up bedding, pillows, curtains seasonally or whenever your color tastes change without also having to purchase another rug too, rugs can be expensive if you purchase one to last.

Hi Karen, I love how you’re transitioning that bedroom back to function as the bedroom! I get such a kick out of the radiators because I’ve never lived anywhere that far north to have one. But yours has such a cute cover. If it were me I definitely would pull a color out of that artwork you like and I think that a green gives a beautiful earthy, natural, comfortable, relaxing vibe to a room. But I also know that you really like neutrals so if you’re happier with a neutral, maybe something to match the vanity? And you could add in more green just like the little plants that you have in right now. It will just make it feel more spa like!

Great score on the Peugot pepper grinders. I wasn’t familiar with the brand but picked up a box of 13 of them at a yard sale for $9 . I just really liked that they were wood and seemed to be good quality. I was surprised to find that Peugeot is a great brand😃. The ones I picked up were in varying sizes . They all sold within a week and I got $39 to $105 for them👏🏻👏🏻😃I have heard the metal Peugot shaker sets sell well and for a high profit too. That brand is definitely a BOLO. Wishing You and Roger a HAPPY NEW YEAR🥳🎉

Put the brass candlesticks in the oven, on low, on a parchment lined cookie sheet. It will melt right off.
