I really love picture molding. It adds so much drama to a room👍

[@SEALIGHTENED]

Ashley, I look forward to your content every Sunday. Love creating a beautiful home for myself and our family and friends. Seeing your esthetic over the last year has truly helped me shift to more a impactful and curated look in my rooms. Thank you!

[@ashleychilders]

Well that just made my day to hear that! Thank you so much for being so supportive and sharing my love of home and design! Happy Sunday!

[@firestick4991]

I love your presence and design style, and your Southern charm. 💙

[@ashleychilders]

You are too sweet! Thank you so much and happy Sunday! 💕

The rooms/spaces at 2:57 are stunning.

[@ashleychilders]

Thank you!!

I’m a big fan of what you call Organic Accents. I find that inviting nature into my home brings so much comfort and serenity. I also appreciate your tip on using oversized throw pillow inserts to add extra plumpness. Who doesn’t love curling up on the couch with cushy pillows?

[@ashleychilders]

I love the name Organic Accents!! I love bringing natural materials into my home as well and couldn’t agree with you more, it just brings so much life and energy into the space. Thanks so much for watching, I’m so happy you enjoyed the video and found it helpful!❤️

Ashley you are an amazing instructor/teacher 🤩you should have a Master class on line 💖

[@ashleychilders]

You are too sweet!!!! And, we're working on something!

[@camuchanomellini903]

[@deborahwatson148]

You have inspired me to change my mind about my antique 1880s sideboard, which we bought in London, and decide to keep it. I may put it into the guest room and add wood racks for them to use the larger open sections for clothing while staying in our next home. I also have to find larger rugs to fit further under all of those living room and dining room chairs. Lastly, I will be hanging the curtains in the next house as high as they can go, and also I will add some scone lighting. Thanks for the great tips for a luxury look!

[@ashleychilders]

Sounds like you’ve got loads of great ideas for your home, and WOW an 1880’s sideboard from London, what an amazing addition to your interiors! ❤️❤️

[@fishercourt]

One more comment, I really appreciate your teaching about using all of your senses when designing and decorating a home! Great idea on using the sense of smell! I tend to forget about that! ❤

[@ashleychilders]

Wow, too sweet, thank you!

[@melissaann9765]

Love them all. In the middle of a whole house renovation without a designer! Just a great team of wood workers ect. Most of my inspiration comes from you. Thank you so much! I’ve been putting a big part in the budget into adding character to the house. My family and I live in a 1920 craftsman bungalow in CT.

[@ashleychilders]

What a fun project!! I'm so happy you've gotten inspiration from the channel and can't wait to hear how everything goes! Please keep me updated and good luck!

[@cantocant2346]

[@LenaMMcKee]

Your choices are always top notch A1 yola! Beautifully and artfully curated . Would love to have any one of these. Yearning for some new tile in my home but planning on selling and so have to be patient

[@ashleychilders]

Thank you so much!! And I understand, I've been in that same situation when we were planning to sell our last home. I just focused on decor pieces that I could take with me to the new house and that way I could still feel like I was refreshing my space every now and then. Thanks for watching!

[@rhondav4204]

Great video. Thanks for the lighting guide.

[@ashleychilders]

Yay! Thank you!!! And absolutely❤️❤️

[@marciafirst2271]

It always takes me so long to watch your videos because I have a notebook where I actually take notes! My next endeavor to make my home look more luxurious is to install raised panel moldings in my living room. I am also thinking about putting a wallpaper mural in my living room-or maybe I'll just choose to make wallpaper panels like you did. You're such an inspiration!

[@ashleychilders]

You are too kind! I'm a note taker too! I love to write down my ideas and inspirations! You're going to love how the raised panel molding transforms your living room and the mural, either way is such a fun and unique addition, thanks for watching!

[@ashleyw9340]

Penny, I am so happy that I caught this video. I’ve been wanting to put in a dark over sized floral still art to match my blue couch. After this modern living room, I’m all in

Loved today's video. Sadly, i am now allergic to down feathers. So had to toss all my pillow inserts. Thanks for the great tips. Going to incorporate the layers ❤

[@ashleychilders]

Oh gosh! Honestly, there’s so many great down alternative inserts out there! We’ve had several clients that are allergic to feathers so we’ve sourced our fair share of down alternatives! ❤️

[@patwilkinson2182]

I am so glad you enjoyed the video, I love sharing decorating tips! I have so many ideas for next year that I can’t wait to share on the channel!!🥰

[@lucybraun8969]

To a blank wall just inside my front door, I'm adding a wallpaper mural that looks as though you are looking through window panes out to a plant garden. I'm hoping this will make the small entry area feel bigger, and give the entry a wow factor.

[@ashleychilders]

I love that!! Sounds perfect!

[@Didi781c]

This was such a great video….like always. Ashley has such a great eye for design and function.

[@ashleychilders]

Window treatments make such a big difference!! Thanks for watching and have fun decorating this spring!

[@fishercourt]

I am a new subscriber of your beautiful content. I had a new idea that might help many people who follow your content. A video about placement and measurement of rugs when purchasing them. I have a bedroom with a large bed and a lot of empty space, I’m just trying to figure out what size would work best. Also, it’s not just the rug itself, it’s about the rug pad that is placed underneath, to avoid slipping and sliding on top of my old vinyl flooring. That’s the problem I am in at this moment. Anyway, thanks for sharing your design elements that help us. ❤❤

[@ashleychilders]

This is a GREAT idea! We're doing a video later this summer all about flooring and I'll make sure to include an entire section on area rungs and pads!

[@diannemiller7872]

My home opens to two open rooms on each side of the entry, no walls, so I love the idea of an entry table. Not sure there is enough space but an excited to try.

[@riyan111.]

Ashley, love your channel, it's always so inspiring. Would you please recommend a lightbulb for a table lamp that's not too warm or too cool. Thank you.

[@ashleychilders]

I prefer LED bulbs that are anywhere between 2700 and 3000 Kelvin. 3000 is the perfect in between in my opinion!

Always love your videos, how do we find a quality but affordable rug? Are there specific qualities to look for? Thank you 😊

[@ashleychilders]

Honestly, I’ve sourced so many amazing 100% wool, hand knotted rugs on Etsy!! It kind of depends on what your needs are, but you can never go wrong with a 100% wool/hand knotted. So many beautiful antique and vintage options too! Wool is incredibly durable, and if there’s ever a spill, you can simply rinse it with water!

[@dotythrift]

Thank you for the tip, I appreciate your reply!

I live in Africa, flowers wont last 5 minutes in our heat. A bouquet of flowers will wither before I reach my house. I opted for live plants in my house, however I love flowers in winter time, thats the only time it will last for a week or so.

Using timeless design

[@Maria-fd7re]

I love how you are very realistic about interior design and include all colors and styles, even vintage and antique! I used to follow another designer on youtube but she never went beyond black and white. I lost interest, as I never felt represented and inspired!

[@ashleychilders]

Thank you!! I truly love that we all have different styles and unique ways that we decorate. I love celebrating that! Thank you for your sweet words and for watching!

[@angelamonson]

How do you feel about fake plants?

[@ashleychilders]

I don’t use them often in my home, except for Christmas I do a faux tree and garland indoors because we decorate so early! I usually try to do real plants or floral stems clipped from the garden in our home, but I know that’s not easy for everyone, especially if people have to travel or are away from their homes often. I feel like there’s some great faux options out there, and you have to just do what works best for you and your Lifestyle!

If you use real plants to look organic, they will absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen into the air.

[@mistygirl3995]

Please do NOT use down. Educate yourself about the cruelty involved in the making of down.

We only purchase pillows inserts from companies that adhere to the Responsible Down Standards ❤

[@vickigonya9432]

😭 I know. It's HORRIBLE. 😢

[@GUESSMYZAIS]

@@vickigonya9432Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I have to admit… it’s not something we often consider when purchasing down.

[@fishercourt]

@@ashleychildersI have a quick question, could you please give a brief summary of what the standards are for the inserts you use. I’m just curious about it. If you just want me to look it up could you please just help me out of where to find that information. Anyway, thanks for your time and I hope you and your loved ones are having a blessed day! ❤

I live in Chicago…we are overwhelmed by the numbers of geese that eat and soil our environment…more down please.
