Finally someone brave enough to call out the strangeness of displaying well-organized cookies 😂 How stale must those be??

@@janetk5142 Cookies have a low survival rate in my home. I would probably achieve the aesthetic for an hour, then stare at one cookie for a week that my kids spared under the guise of consideration. It's like the half sip of milk put back in the fridge so they don't have to dispose of it properly. Thanks in advance for allowing me to vent about the people I created on your comment.

Arvin, I thought you would share with us the importance of cooking our meals. I know there are a lot of companies that deliver meals. But, how hard is it to look up a recipe, buy the ingredients from your supermarket yourself. We are becoming a lazy society. I was taught as a little girl the enjoyment of cooking is going to the market picking out the ingredients by look, touch, and smell. Then I would come home and cook with my husband, family member, or friend. And for those of us who are elderly and have a special needs adult at home. Online ordering from your neighborhood market is so simple these days, for pickup or delivery. I feel we all need to support our Community markets and stores. That’s my opinion.

[@davidshep45]

Miss Hooty hooty hoo will be devastated that you threw shade at her lanterns. She will not invite Arvin to sit in her kitchen and have cookies from her counter displayed food jars under her massive "Gather" sign.

[@anitas5817]

I do like the lanterns but you’re right - they’re just everywhere. That’s when people start getting tired of something. It’s not that it ever looked bad, it’s just too common.

Exactly. In other words, overkilled, like farmhouse and dumb boho these days.

Exactly! I loved them when we started our renovation but saw them everywhere so when it came time to choose lamps, I opted for something else.

[@carolhieronymus8816]

Arvin,Darlin’ I bought three polypropylene rugs for my porches and a rental room. They are excellent because you can hose them down and they just drain off the water. So easy to clean . I think they would be great in a family kitchen with kids and pets. Wayfair has a large assortment of choices. And the customer service is the best. One that I bought for my front porch just wasn’t right. No problem. I re wrapped it sent it back and received another one in a few days. It’s perfect.

[@RosieCarl]

Several of the tips you gave reminded me of Coco Chanel quotes. First: when thinking about adding brass accessories to your kitchen: “Before you leave the house, look in the mirror and take one thing off.” In other words, "Less is more." Also, we need to be ourselves and not copy a style just because it is the trend. “The most courageous act is to think for yourself. Aloud.” I think this is something we all can take to heart, and it is something you almost always say at some point in your videos.

[@anibani512]

The notes about the pendants in the kitchen--- SO TRUE!! I have a client that has a huge kitchen with 3 tiny lantern style pendants and it is time that they come down. Going to replace those stat with some of your rec's. Thank you so much for the clarity and great tips!

[@heatherw5632]

We have the 3 pendant problem (lol) - they came with our house and I want them gone. Do I just cap the middle one when I put in a couple of bigger fixtures?

[@anibani512]

@@heatherw5632Sometimes when you cap the center one the other two are not equal distance from each other. 26-30 inches is the ideal distance between the pendants. Allow 12 inches from the edge of the island to the light fixture. To do it right, I would hire an electrician and handyman for the drywall touch up. First, have the light you have in mind to show the electrician, then have an electrician move the power to where it needs to be, then have the handyman fill in the drywall holes, patch, and paint. It can add up in costs but it is very much worth it in the end. Hope this helps!

Large kitchen pendants… I like the smaller ones because I don’t WANT to notice the fixtures. I like light that comes out of no where. Lamps and fixtures are actually something I dislike. I never find anything I like unless it’s very traditional like Tiffany etc. also, the large pendants bring the height of the ceiling down, I feel like. I don’t want the added horizontal line created by the bottom of the pendants lol they feel like they belong outside if they’re huge. Lol but its just my opinion. Lol lighting fixtures are annoying to me in general lol Also, as A mega cook at home… you need lighting at your different stations. They focused the light right there because that’s where they do a lot of their chopping and stuff (right next to the sink) and there’s a huge difference between what something looks like from way way way far away and what it actually feels like inside the space. Those lights are situated perfectly for someone working in the space. Lol ❤️

[@nailguncrouch1017]

@@LinaRoseAlenina I think so, polypropylene is. I am not really sure.

[@vaderladyl]

They look obviously plasticky most of the time, but figuratively, polypropylene is a form of pliable plastic used to make rugs and other textiles and he refers to it as plastic.

[@LinaRoseAlenina]

@@vaderladyl so polypropylene is the only plastic used in rugs? Is viscose for example still considered a fabric? And thank you for explaining all this to me I appreciate it 😊

[@vaderladyl]

@@LinaRoseAlenina You are welcome. There are several materials that are plastic/man made materials, used on rugs like olefin (which is another name for polypropylene), nylon, polyester and acrylic. Viscose is a fabric and a type of rayon, and is considered both natural and synthetic. Still a good choice for rugs but more delicate than the plastics. Always check labels for percentage of materials used if they are disclosed on it, as even some poly or plastics ones with high quality, densely woven fibers or a blend with other natural materials are higher quality and durable, and washable with a steam machine like Rug Doctor, for example, if right now, you cannot afford natural materials like jute, straw, wool, cotton, and such., they are a better alternative. But mind you, sometimes is better to save for a natural one to buy later, as some of those made with higher quality synthetic materials can be a s pricey as the natural ones and won't last as long. But then again, even a wool one can look like crap if not maintained correctly.
