[@aliciakessingerbader6608]

Hey, Alexandra! I love your site & try to watch every week. The reason I left a negative on this makeover is because of the choice of wallpaper. I just can't see what drew you to it OR why you thought it would work for her. On the good side, this is the first & probably only one that I don't like. I've watched how you've grown & you have got such a good eye for color & flow. Please keep up the good work. AGKB

[@brinagotsued]

I love the virtual makeovers. Can you do a follow-up 6-12 months later, so we get to see the end results?

[@KB-hs7vh]

I would love this!

[@katbar6066]

excellent idea!

[@Amal_hope11]

Yes would be great. I loved the design and would love to see it coming together

[@NatalieEng113]

please!

[@Rhonda_girl_11]

She likely won't answer this one though I wish she would do follow ups.

[@MrsAnastasiaXo]

I'm so glad Jen liked it! This was not my cup of tea at all but the client was so happy and that's all that matters in home design 😊

[@1TigerJo]

yeah - I honestly didn't like a single thing about it except for maybe the sofa, but it's not about me, it's about Jen - glad she was happy with it.

Another great video.. I'd never normally comment on anyone's appearance but I absolutely love, love Alexandra's hair colour right now. Its stunning.

[@tracygarrett3952]

Yes! It is stunning. Is it red? I don't know. 😂 It's a color that keeps you guessing. Have I ever seen a color like this before, and if not, why not?

[@robynsnest22]

Do you ever do a follow up after they do the makeovers? That would be a really great way to tie it up!

The peacock table, love, love, love.

Alexandra, I just got your book and it's really wonderful. I love all the helpful instructions but what I appreciate the most is how elegant everything is! You've given people permission to be sophisticated and that's a great 🎁 gift! Thanks for all the beauty you release into the world! 💐 💐

[@BeautifullyBookish95]

I love this style. So cool to see you helping an international audience. Sending some love from London.

[@Idontwantachann]

I’m so happy you selected Jen’s home. I’m part of a FB group for questions about interior design and the corner fireplace conundrum comes up quite a bit.

[@tabeamb9805]

Love the livingroom. Felt the old fireplace fit perfect with the new stuff without new tiles. The entryway dosn't feel AG. Mirror could be way bigger, a little bit to many carpets, wall colour and floortiles ❤

[@nancyanneberg403]

What a smile on her face and reflected in the space decorated gives that same smile. Rounded and wonderful colors.gimme gimne gumdrop colors of taste. Thank you for a lovely vision to explore, Victoria

not me just finishing the last video before this one and going huh what will I watch now.... and BOOM a new vid!

[@sherim8155]

Love that we got an extra video! And that is the craziest, most outrageous and hideous design! Glad she likes it:(. However, the virtual design concept is fun!

[@suerop]

It's exciting when you can inspire a client to really run with their style choices. She has a very eclectic, bold vision for her space. You have shown her that it's fabulous to live her dream. Kudos to you.

[@tracygarrett3952]

You have just grown so much in the years I've been watching! Every room you do now is different from previous ones. You're an interior designer, Alexandria! I enjoyed this one a lot. I'm really a warm neutral gal, but this was Boho Luxe for sure, and I didn't hate it! ❤ Very sophisticated!

[@nikinik5620]

Love all your videos and how they've changed over the years. Thanks from Costa Rica!

[@pollytiks3885]

Loved the Boho luxe design!!! Since you can’t clone yourself, virtual design is a great idea. Sometimes we know what we want but don’t know how to put it together. This is like a recipe. BTW, does Graham come with the design recommendations? 😂😂

[@Tina-zi9dv]

The fireplace tile next to the wallpaper? I don't know.

what a great collaboration!! good fun!! the neon lamb is over the top! love it!!

[@heidibee501]

I was excited to watch the transformation. I'm still waiting.

[@Mel-qr5ob]

Cause it wasn't a transformation. It was a new start. Didn't you watch the beginning? Jen was a digital nomad, going into the makeover she only owned one table thingy, a tv and a small rug. You don't get to complain when you didn't even watch it.

[@lisamartin704]

When people ask for this kind of help do they generally give you a budget? Some of the reccomendations seem really pricey.

[@TracyHRodriguez]

Love the energy!

[@rtd1791]

Is there a part 2? When do we see Alexandra’s design actually implemented?

[@rocioiribe5841]

that's what i was waiting for!!

Can you really use peel and stick around a fireplace?

[@danielleboon1543]

I love this format of video! I can totally understand that full make overs are a lot of time and money, but I feel like this is almost as satisfying I’d love to see an update if she implements your suggestions too. Looks like a cute and fun space

[@FurnitureFan]

Yes, if possible, I'd love to see the freshly updated place afterwards.

[@michellepereira2328]

I liked the design very much. I’d love to see her new space if she shares it with you.

[@angelabasse2662]

I have been bine watching your videos for days now. I honestly love the simple approach to designing that you have. You make us feel like we can do this. My take away from this vid is to pick a few colors then add variations or different tones of the same color! Game changer for sure!

[@EmmaVB82]

Wow I hate it 😂 But I love that Jen loves it! ❤️ I thought this was going to turn out way different from the inspo pics, but I guess I’m just drawn to different elements from them than what Team AG ran with, which is so interesting. I gravitated towards the more Scandi midcentury-modern aspects from the inspo with the green/teal/blue pops of colour (writing this while sat on a teal green/blue velvet sofa!), and the glam/luxe elements from the velvet and gold/brass, so the Anthropologie and Lawless Design pics (top left and centre) were the ones that spoke to me most. Though I do love what you’ve done with the entryway and dining area (though I wonder if the curtains were serving a practical purpose, if that window is prone to glare from the sun? Asking from a west-southwest-facing London flat with huge windows which is basically a greenhouse, at least in the afternoons/evenings for more than half of the year… 🥵) - and I hardcore covet that dining table! It’s exactly what I want in my space and have been looking for… alas, no World Market in London! 😔

[@cindyboughen9933]

So excited to see a post today from you! Love what you did with her space

[@abbyefalkner]

I so much appreciate all the ideas y'all provide when you make modular type things that look built in but are renter friendly, and you say they can take it apart and move with it. Do you think you could ever show how to take certain materials apart? I'm wandering specifically about when you caulk something into place, how would I take that apart without ruining the piece?

[@epayne48]

Generally it can be gently peeled off the wood and then use a small putty blade to remove heavy leftovers. Next use a bit of sandpaper. You will have to retouch. I've done this and it works very well and is not as difficult as it sounds.

[@jo4vt]

Awwwwwwwwe, that’s so amazing you got her that sofa! Great design for her, she loved it.

[@laurame9969]

Love this style, so fun!! Just curious, do people give you a budget? The floor lamp alone is like $600 🤯.

[@ThisIsKassia]

I love it all, except the choice of wallpaper. I don't agree that her inspo photos look boho. I actually think they lean much harder into the space-age, sputnik side of mid-century modern. I think a more geometric wallpaper would work a lot better.

[@MCM1965]

[@Nelia2705]

Does anyone know how the make overs work financially? Do people give a budget which can be spent or is it usually gifted? I'm wondering because considering that Jen said the console was a splurge, the choice of furniture sounded as if it could be too pricy. I really like the peacock table and that the console got to be more in focus. Apart from that I find the mix of bright patterns too busy (especially considering the inspo). Basically every single piece being a statement piece takes away from those that should've been one (the sofa, the table, the console, the fireplace). Also, was researched whether the contact paper is safe for fireplaces?
