5 THINGS TO STOP DOING IN YOUR BEDROOM & WHAT TO DO INSTEAD | PART 2

[@terricardinale3185]

I have to laugh…Nick I immediately thought of you the minute he said to get rid of the dark walls!

[@favouritemoon4133]

Love you, Nick [and a subscriber], but Arvin is right on this. Get the best blackout blinds and/or curtains you can afford. This makes so much sense *especially* these days when for many people bedrooms are having to double up as 'office' space for people working from home.

[@rocksunjaxindie]

What I love about Arvin is 1. His recommendations are usually spot on 2. He cracks himself up. Love your channel.💞

I’ll never give up my 100% Mulberry Silk pillowcases! My hair & skin is so much better. But yeah, no to the whole polyester/satin bedding look.

[@ashleysalomon4349]

I know its been 2 years but I'm glad I found this comment, did some research and now I'm considering silk pillowscases and blankets

[@katrinaford494]

Finally! Someone else who loves Target's sheets! Bought ours 5 years ago because we had a new bed and I just needed something to use until I could find something "nicer". Five years later we're still using & loving them and I haven't found anything I liked better with a reasonable price tag.

[@victoriajalepeno5755]

So funny to happen upon this comment. We just bought some filler Target percale sheets because we got a king bed and had nothing else, but actually love them!

[@StayPositiveInformed]

I agree on the silk bedding, but… I got silk pillow cases and they are so amazing to sleep on. Really good for the skin and hair.

[@carolinebram-ham6295]

"Nobody asked", is a good enough disclaimer. After saying that, anyone having a problem with your videos are just PETTY. Love you Arvin!!!

Lmao!!!! 😂🙌🏼

[@lynettenelson3701]

To the hanging cords...YES! It is so easy to cut a hole right behind where the tv will hang. Then cut a hole down next to the plug in. My husband and I did this. We went to Home Depot and got a couple of the outlet plates that have the rectangular holes to give it a finished look, even though the top hole is covered by the TV and the bottom hole is covered by the console table. It looks so good! No stray nose hairs for us!

[@frenchfan1278]

I love dark walls in the bedroom. Done well could be so nice. Bed frames could be tasteful in any style depends on the style of house, ceiling height, light. There are a lot of very tacky modern bed frames too. Not everything has to be linen, just because it’s trendy at the moment. Silk pillow cases ( not a cheap shiny ones) feel so good on your skin.

[@pippylunalove]

Advice on bedding from a textile technologist. Always check the fibre content. Thread count means fuck all if it is a polyester or polyamide. Yeah you can get 800 thread count polyester sheets for way less than 400 thread count 100% cotton sheets but you are you going to sweat swimming pools. Thread count is the density of yarns per inch or per cm of fabirc. The higher the thread count, the longer the fibres, the finer the yarns, the softer it feels. Polyester absorbs less than 1% of its weight in water, polyamide will absorb around 3%, linen absorbs around 20%, cotton around 25%, wool and silk absorb around 30% of it weight. If a fibre absorbs more water, it's going to be able to absorb your sweat, remove it from your body so you don't overheat. Satin is a fabric construction, it is a type of weave and can be made from literally any fibre. The structure of the satin/sateen fabric helps aid the shiny appearance. Jersey is also a fabric construction, it is a type of knit and can be made from most fibres except probably kevlar, and carbon cause they don't like to be bent. I personally go for cotton or linen (cellulose 1) or regenerated cellulose such as viscose(UK/EU)/Rayon(US), lycoell, tencel, or modal (cellulose 2). If you are doing cotton but are hesistant on its sustainability, the best cotton you can get will have a Better Cotton Initiative (BCI) tag. This will increase the price but it has the best practices globally. Egyptian cotton is more expensive because the fibres are naturally longer than other cottons and they produce finer yarns = higher thread count and softer feel.

Thanks for the great advice. I need new sheets for summer here in New Zealand and getting myself all confused and worked up about thread counts. This is super helpful!

[@rocket7697]

Thank God. Someone who knows what they are talking about.Linen is my first choice except that sometimes it can actually smell quite earthy/ fruity if you have a keen sense of smell as I do. Fitted sheets also tend be large than necessary too.

[@aliciacarroll6947]

"Desert Modern" is technically what "Boho" is inspired by. The Bohemian life style is all about world travel, art, music, different textures, and items that mean something to you. Macrame is actually more vintage inspired than Boho, but the two seem to have merged somewhere along the way. I have a lot of 60's and 70's inspired things in my space which is why my macrame feels more authentic to its cause. Hell, I have a LAVA LAMP in my bedroom, so the macrame is spot on. It's not for everyone and I have a feeling mine will stick with me long after everyone else has donated theirs to the Goodwill.😆

[@maishataylor7987]

Yessss...agreed..im not changing a thing when it comes to boho but will include some of this "desert whatever " style..calling the boho style immature was a bit much..its more of an experience of lifestyle, sacred..ugh

[@YourMajesty143]

Macrame actually stems from Middle-Eastern culture, so the "desert modern" vibe that Boho is going for actually makes sense. Macrame might be vintage to people who grew up during the 70s era and treat it as a "trend", but to us Arabians, Macrame is timeless and an important part of our history.

[@Hereforthetea12]

That's exactly what I'm saying. It feels the same to me. Both are beautiful. He's worried about boho being too Over done... desert modern isn't far behind. Off to ikea for both looks lol

[@cheyennesutton2055]

I am NOT going to change my boho bedroom. I took Baiyina Hugeley's style quiz, and it confirmed that my style is boho. I need intense colors, different textures, lots of pillows, and layered rugs. Macrame wall hangings are very cool and creative. The Bohemian style is not fake, artificial, or cliche. It is beautiful, interesting, and creative. This style is not going anywhere. How can a style be cliche? We each like what we like. Desert modern is just a scaled back version of bohemian.

[@autumnfall8829]

Nope....im all about the gorgeous antique ornate beds. They are BEAUTIFUL and the craftsmanship is INCREDIBLE.

Thank you Arvin for the Target comforter info. I just moved from Cali to Arizona & couldn't find an all cotton comforter that I liked. I never thought of looking at Target. I shop Amazon allot but when it comes to bedding I won't get it on line. You are so right about the hanging wires from the bedroom TV I hated it!! So when we moved I told my husband I want the tv on a TV stand. It makes such a difference it's so much cleaner looking & it was cheaper than a tv wall mount on Amazon.🥰 Love all your ideas & most of all your personality you always make me laugh. You have that contagious laughter. Take care Arvin😊

It's hard to disguise the wires, but you are correct. The wires do look tacky. I guess I need to do a little more and invest in having it hidden.

[@amandaspence8167]

I think the problem with these decorating styles like Boho, Farmhouse, Beach, etc., is that they are over-decorated-people put in EVERY Boho item they ever saw or make everything down to the switch plates match the theme-No need to beat us over the head with it! We get it! I think your advice about restraint is the best I have heard in a long time. It could go a long way in saving some of these themes that people are so in love with.

[@favouritemoon4133]

Here's something I learned when I was fully 40 years old and have stuck to ever since. If you are lucky enough to have a bedroom that only guests will sleep in, don't buy a bed with a 'footer' for it. You can still have an elaborate/ornate headboard if that's your thing, but some of us need a few extra inches at the end of the bed without having to bend our knees to avoid our feet touching a hard surface. I am a female of 5ft 9, btw, and there have been times when I have departed from a perfect mattress [on an otherwise lovely bed with a footboard] and slept on a pile of cushions or a fold-out bed just so I can sleep with my legs out straight. I will make a wild guess that a lot of men will agree with me.

[@crushynn90]

As a petite person, I never thought about this. Good to know!

[@YourMajesty143]

As a petite person, even I deal with this. I also hate having my feet or calves hanging off the bed when laying diagonally or across, so I always add a nice long ottoman at the end of all my beds. 1. They double as storage. 2. They offer a place to set down your purse, lay out your jammies, set aside extra pillows, or to throw off the duvet when it gets too hot (better than ending up on the floor). 2. They also provide a seating area to put on socks or to just plain sit somewhere while talking/scrolling on the phone.

[@elizabethchurchill2933]

I can see so many creative new directions boho can choose when it's finally up against the inevitable fork-in-the-road of adulthood: desert modern is good, but it could also seamlessly mature into Japandi or Wabi Sabi or Balinese vernacular.

[@SugarSweet1897]

AGREED. As a teen I loved boho. I loved how it looked so whimsical and artistic, all while being cozy at the same time. But now my style is definitely more japandi/ wabi sabi. The core of neutrals still remain, I guess it just matured. Those gaudy, mass-produced boho prints have got to go, but what I still love are the warm neutral colours like terracotta, olive, cream, etc which are even relevant in Arvin’s personal style. The “artsy” part now comes in textures and sculptures. Even traditionally boho decor like macrame and prints can be done in good taste, when hand-woven by true artists; it’s the mass-production that ruins the authenticity of it all, which is probably what Arvin dislikes in it. And that casual, forest-y, “untouched” look of boho greenery (hanging above the bed, in odd corners, etc) is just a nightmare to maintain in an actual bedroom 😂

[@b.mcknight8686]

Those camel leather chairs in the desert modern example you showed are so cool. This Habitat For Humanity thrift store near me has a pair of them, but they were originally priced at $200.00 each. I think they're worth it, but it's outside of my budget, and the longer items sit in the store they're at, the cheaper they become. I keep going back to check on them, they're $135.00 each now, I'm just waiting for them to get to $100.00 each. I'm gonna be so sad if someone else gets them. Also, I totally agree with the wires. You can always get crafty and hide them behind furniture, or at the very least coil them and use a zip tie to make them less messy. My biggest design issue is, and has always been curtains pooling on the floor. I know a lot of people think it looks luxurious, but I can't stand it.

I laughed during this whole video (during most of your videos). You make home design fun. Keep doing what your doing because I love your videos. ❤️ By the way, I painted my bedroom a dark color and changed the color after two years. It felt so gloomy.

This is not a criticism of your video, in fact I thoroughly enjoy watching them and you are a delight and I agree with so many of your points. The problem, however, with mass produced design via social media is that it ends up being a one size fits all industry. For example, Joanna Gains made modern farmhouse popular and everyone wanted to replicate it. Builders were throwing shiplap and barn doors into every house and now it's becoming a meme. People are making fun of it and most people are sick of seeing it. I fear this same thing is happening with designers like Studio McGee, Amber Lewis and Athena Calderone. It's about all you see on social these days and while beautiful it's facing over exposure just like modern farmhouse and shiplap. So many designers are just copying and pasting for their clients. I am a designer myself and for me, the personality of my client and the architecture of their home influence the design I come up with so it feels uniquely theirs and not a copy and paste from a big popular social media designer. I have dealt with many clients who see these big influencer designers on social and think they want the same look but like you said, black walls in a small, poorly lit bedroom will not be the best approach for their space. I would just like to see more variety on social with the emphasis on designing for each individual client and their unique home and style. Sorry, that was a tangent. XO

Best comment I've ever gotten on KZbin. EVER! Thank you for this and your insight. And I love how you really broke down what these styles mean and why they become so popular. You are so right its probably inevitable that spaces start to look the same because of social media. I'm learning as I go and I am no professional by any means lmao. Each home is different and the approach, style, design should all be different too.
