EASY TO STEAL IKEA DESIGNER STYLING HACKS!

[@TheBeanie06]

I really like this format of showing design photos and then you point out the design aspects of each rm. I would love to see more of this.

[@thebeauty_minimalist]

LOVE the idea of breaking down professional styling photos, not just from IKEA! This would make a great series, thank you Valentina for all the tips! 💜

[@TDoug6]

I put bar height counter on my island. I just don’t want to see kitchen clutter from my open concept living room. I know it’s not on trend but it is functional for me. I added some beautiful barstools and pendant lights and it looks amazing. As a bonus, it’s perfect for a standing desk when I’m tired of sitting. I also love ikea styling and this has been such an informative video!

[@maryanncarmody5646]

I love this! Our island is also open to our living room and while I've entertained the idea that counter height is more "on trend" what you just said convinced me it's just fine as is. Thank you!

[@starlightshimmery]

Your thoughts are exactly why it’s important to make the space work for your lifestyle. That will always outrank any trend 👍

[@lytxn1453]

I love my huge white quartz island but would love a higher "shelf" to hide my kitchen mess!

[@marylut6077]

I cut my breakfast bar from 10” higher than counter to 5” higher, and cut stool legs down too, love hiding sink mess and seeing over DR table to patio window

[@JessieBanana]

I like the bar height for that reason as well, though I do like bar stools, and it’s really common in apts. It’s also why I am not a fan of open concept.

[@user-ck3fc4ev3d]

This is what sets you apart from the other design channels and proves you create your content from experience. Much better than the others whose design tips are nothing more than “buy a vase, pop in some faux greenery and place it on top of a coffee table book”. Thank you for the video!

[@rsnj4501]

I love these type of videos where you break down a photo…like the Scandinavian one you did a few years ago♥️

[@annicaesplund6613]

If this is a IKEA hack it's Scandinavian.

[@MonicaB666]

I love these "Case studies", Val!! Bring them on! 🥰🖤

[@lytxn1453]

Yes!!! I love these kinds of videos where you break down what's done in a room. I'd like to see comparisons of a room or area styled in several different ways. Love your style!

[@susanalmeida5321]

Some of the best decor advise I’ve heard in a long time! I’m a senior and love decor but practicality! TY, Valentina 😊

[@Annie1990]

Love this type of video and the thorough walkthrough with all the design details. Thank you for the amazing tips Valentina.

[@lauriecreech6174]

I love your enthusiasm and how much information and expertise you share in each video. I always come away with new perspectives and ideas. And some of your contagious joy in decorating! Thank you!!

[@-nellie-m3711]

This video was so on point for me, I loved how you showed smaller rooms decorated without looking too cluttered, the best one I loved the most was adding hanging space to a bedroom and utilising curtains to hide what’s behind, I may try and talk my hubby into this idea for one of our bedrooms to give me more hanging space for my clothes, I don’t have a walk-in closet and find that I don’t have much hanging space in there for all my seasonal clothes, most times I have to store them away in suitcases ready for that season to come around again but I also do a de clutter at the same time just to make space, over this time, I’ve donated pieces of clothing that I wished I hadn’t 😢, but basically had to for the lack of space I have, you’ve given me some great ideas in this video Valentina, it’s a Public Holiday here in Australia 🇦🇺 today, the perfect time for me to rearrange some of my clothes and other things I’ve got stored away. Thank You for always sharing your knowledge and expertise with us here on KZbin. Have a Great Day. Cheers from Nellie 🖤🖤🖤💯

[@heidijones1516]

I love your reminder of keeping life in a space, it seems to help keep design more approachable. At least it does for me. I'm so glad to be going back to a relaxed beautiful space that feels cozy, Life can be hard some days, we need a cozy/comfy spot to start and end the day in. . . home sweet home. I appreciate your videos Valentina!

[@jwal3717]

I appreciate “dissecting” the rooms and widening the point of view . (Especially for us in smaller spaces!)Thank you

[@elsemuller2460]

Watching from Germany. We have a lot Ikea Stores over here. I'm a costumer since beginning when i was teenager with small budget, now i'm close to retirement, still a fan :) Love the Vid ( first commend on this channel :)

[@homeworks3399]

Love Ikea kitchen tips Would love to see more of your elevated Ikea ideas for living and dining rooms as well.

[@kianabernal3119]

This is my favorite style of video I have ever enjoyed from your channel. More please! I hope you enjoyed creating this content as much I did watching and rewatching.

[@Gingerbesnappin]

I have been watching your videos for years now and I love this video! I have been stuck on how to finish our library for years now. Thank you for explaining more in depth why each photo is appealing, you notice all the things and it makes all the difference.

[@lauriesimms7560]

I love your videos, but this has to be my favorite. When I first looked at each room, I only saw half of what you saw. I appreciate how you analyzed and then gave suggestions for how we might use those styling tricks. Please do more videos like this!

[@sandydupey]

Love, love this kind of videos!! I really hope you know how much you have helped me to view the way I decorate my house. Since I started watching you I have made little tweaks here and there and it has made a huge difference. Thank you!!

[@crystalstewart168]

I’ve been following for a few years. This is one of my favorite videos! Please do more! I liked the kitchen aesthetic the most but think the tips you shared for bedroom pic were the most useful for me.

[@innekrzywania2153]

I love the kitchen the most! Picture perfect. Thank you for all your tips! And yessss, please; I would love to watch more of these kind of videos! They are very helpful & inspiring ❤

[@dlindsay913]

Have kept my raised L shaped bar counter as it separates both my living and dining area. A must to hide the sink, etc. Very informative and helpful content. More please!!!

[@zetalady2001]

I ❤️ this video. This is for us regular folk🤣. Please do more of these videos! Love, love, love. You are such an inspiration.

[@Reillygirl]

Your hair looks so healthy and great in this video😊

[@anjujacob9626]

Loved the video Valentina. Please do more such ones in the future.❤️

[@marieround8140]

I love this segment, would like more of it.❤

[@heatherosterman3030]

You are my absolute favorite 😊 every time I listen to you it becomes a true joyful experience…your laugh is contagious and I smile every time ❤

[@vickijocampanaro8962]

I loved this whole video but also love your room and especially the plant in the big grey pot .. is that plant real and what kind and where did you get that gorgeous huge clay pot on the floor ???

[@theresayates4596]

In our bedroom our 2 closets are separate with the bathroom door that we can also access from the hall so I changed the bed around and put a lovely big chest of drawers in the middle of the closets in front of the door and it has given us so much more space.thank you for the wonderful tip's and tricks ❤️

[@carolebuckle7977]

Once again, thank you Valentina great tips, great vlog, you look lovely with that Charcoal grey Cardigan ❤️🇬🇧xxxx

[@kcflaca07]

The kitchen was beautiful

[@jeannette7243]

I love this video, I would like to see more content like this! It's so informative and practical.

[@lydiaboswell9789]

I find this video so very edifying! I would love to see more like these. Thank you!

[@BusyBeeMaree]

❤😊❤ I was an Interior Designer at IKEA. I am still at IKEA and love it. I love hearing the different perspectives of everyone that enjoys our rooms. When you lived in Scandinavia did you visit the IKEA museum and stay at the IKEA Hotel? ❤😊❤

[@thiskiddyahoo]

Really enjoyed this video and the capturing of details that transform so easily and within a reasonable budget. Thank YOU Valentina for sharing so much of your knowledge with us it is truly priceless!

[@diannelarose4392]

You soooo inspired me. I love the curtains in front of closet spaces. And I've always wanted a bed in the middle of a room. LOVE!

[@brendamacdonald6370]

I love the mix of textures! It allows me to change things up on a whim. I also appreciate the example with the higher kitchen bar. I have something similar I'm trying to work through. Valentina, your videos help me to rethink my spaces and also to have fun updating them. BTW, love your hair! ♡

[@robinbirdj743]

Space synonyms: area, room, home, place, expanse… LOL. Thanks for another helpful video!

[@SunshineShellz]

V- I finally ordered my first piece of Royal Copenhagen- the “M” alphabet mug, thanks to you! I’m worth it❤️. Can’t wait to enjoy it.

[@sarahjensen8095]

Love the bar and bedroom. Would love more room breakdowns

[@reneesmith695]

Yes definitely do more videos like this!❤

[@Editbyhelen]

Loved this video and your takes on each room. More of these kinds of videos please!

[@bellezamamacita]

I LOVED this type of videos. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. We love you.!!!

[@Isabella-zi2pu]

Love the kind of videos where you analyze rooms!

[@ella8874]

Love these types of videos! And I love going to Ikea trying to figure out the design details, they do an exceptional job always. Love your tips!They helped me get a better understanding of what’s needed in my space(s) now.

[@lhs1221]

This kind of video is super helpful because you are walking us through details that we wouldn't have thought of. Thanks so much! I just went to IKEA but now I feel like I need to go back! :)

[@g.970]

Even though the trend is going away from the open plan, I still like mine because everyone hangs out in the kitchen . I like that I have a great room. I do have a separate dining/library room though. Also have a separate office . I just no longer have a formal living room …..it only got used at Christmas and when I read my Victoria magazine. 😂

[@pepperwell4297]

I live in a very remote area so the shopping videos really help me know what to order!

[@suviskinner8654]

This was so inspiring and I think that you are a genius! :) Thank you for teaching us!

[@sue8539]

I agree...IKEA has the amazing master designers.

[@aprilrain2011]

Yes, ty.. I finally feel aspired. I am going to drive 3 hours to Ikea this weekend. I need a new Kitchen and help in Dining Room.

[@melanieshort6190]

Great concept, designer, but lived in!! Perfect.

[@lisahall9226]

As always beautiful tips by thinking outside the traditional box.

[@wcouch8]

I really really really 👍 the how to videos, getting back to basics.

[@stinaljungstrom8691]

That curtain thing behind the bed is so smart. I look at the smallest cottage ever, and think it's so cute that I maybe want us to buy it for a summer house. But it has only one slim but long bedroom and I could not fint out how it would even work as a room or look cute. But that's really smart! Love all your videos! Thank you Valentina!

[@huldaolafsdottir4898]

I really like this kind of videos!

[@milolind9758]

This is one of your best videos!

[@louisemedin]

Yes, please do more of these videos! You made me fall in love with the books from Hans Blomquist and now I collect them, they are some of my absolute favorites. Even considering ordering the one that is only available in german, just for the pictures... Lots of love from Malmö! ❤

[@Defiant__One]

Loved this video and got so many great tips for a huge bonus room that I have which need to be multifunctional.

[@mariarea4851]

Like this video... please do more...it's great to understand how the rooms are styled and what certain pieces add to the room...thanks !!!

[@gaylerice8796]

Love your practical tips! Decorate with things you use - so good.

[@lulyb]

I’m always learning new things watching your channel. Thanks Valentina !

[@ruthgarrett277]

It’s the geometry. Mixing modern with selected vintage. Your selections are all sharing a simple line or shape and it looks great together. As a much older Atlanta designer, I’m thrilled to see Atlanta and the South moving forward to these clean lines vs camel back sofas, wing back chairs, butler tray tables and orientalist rugs! 😂😂😂. So stale. But the clean lines and geometry - I love so much.

[@mindyseal8583]

Definitely would enjoy another video like this

[@astatine0085]

I love center room beds!

[@JessieBanana]

I never thought about it, but I do love the lives in clutter in Ikea styling and I do it in my apartment. There is something aesthetically pleasing about minimalist or ultra clean spaces, but it’s not realistic to my lifestyle. I want things I use everyday out or east to access. I also like collecting knickknacks. If the style can’t tolerate a little clutter it’s not a good style for me.

[@sandyjackson1089]

Love this type of video!

[@melmbrown61]

I really liked the video today. So many great tips and tricks. I'm trying to add more baskets and shelves to "hide in plain sight" all the things. Also each time I replace a piece of furniture I think "what would Valentina get"! 😆

[@carolyngrotaers4454]

Great video. The interiors were lightly softened. My favourite was the bedroom. The light in the robe was beautifully. The curtain fabric was an additional soft look, too.😀

[@reneemillz8701]

Thanks for keeping this fun!

[@carolannmcmullen5293]

Do you do table center pieces or runners? I have a new table from West Elm and I am trying to figure out the styling for it.

[@urwithjazz]

I told you over a year ago that I asked for the addition of a high bar onto my existing counter and that my contractor said no one does that. And you said it was because its outdated! Im glad i didn’t listen to either of you😂

[@signespencer6887]

My daughter has a high bar over her island. They are both on wheels, so the bar can cover much of the island or be pulled back to eat at. And it shields the kitchen from the dining area

[@lilicollazo750]

Thank you Valentina! Very nice content. I have always tried to maximize rooms for multi purpose without sacrificing a good style 😊. This video provided some additional ideas so thank you!

[@AndersonStreet311]

OMG . This is soo good. The kitchen…. My kitchen is tricky to finish with a long bench. This I’m my house and office done … so excited ❤❤

[@monamohammad6555]

Good morning Valentina 😊 Please more videos like this!

[@deniseaber9985]

Love these ideas

[@judithpresgrove739]

Good Morning Valentina! This was such a great video! Thanks for all the tips! ❤ from Georgia!

[@tammyjohnson1877]

I have that bar in my apartment, but not by choice. I had a counter height island in my home before and I really love that look the most. It just makes the space look larger and also gives you a much larger working space.

[@lisawaller-gage9151]

Great video and the photos were amazing!

[@janice3167]

Love this video! And I would love to hear what the not-real fireplace hack is!

[@milahontova]

I really like all your videos. It's relaxing and inspiring. I would like to know some tips and tricks for renters. We rented a cookies-cutter house, and it's typical beige walls. How little bit to elevate this space? Without changing the color of the wall, countertops...?

[@courtneyweiser7709]

I love this type of video. Can you please do one just for bedrooms. Especially, kids bedrooms of all ages. I see everyone focusing on the kitchen, living room, or maybe the master bedroom. But very few on kids bedrooms or bathrooms. Or do a series where you focus and do a deep dive on one type of room at time.

[@holledavidson405]

Outstanding tips and content - you are the best!!

[@jacqulineholland2118]

i really like this video very helpful .

[@robertathomas7204]

Love this video concept for sure - often I love a space at IKEA and I really can't pinpoint why.. this helps Also - we have a bar height counter between our kitchen and Dinning room and I wouldn't change it; it's nice to use as a buffet area when entertaining

[@ישראלהימין]

Amazing video, loved each and every tip an hack. I would be happy to see more of these. So inspiring. One room per video would be even better so we could really understand the logic behind the designs. Ikea's designers are great and you are amazing in analyzing them. Thank you Valentina 😊 💓

[@junemaguire5053]

Love the vid thank you Valentina.

[@sandralewis1162]

Thank you Valentina !!!!!!
