Who wants to have MaCenna be their interior designer? ✋ She has such an immaculate sense for it! I am obsessed!

[@XOMaCenna]

omg you're so sweet!

[@danimarvel5162]

Omg I wish I could hire her to do.my house, I just moved in and I'm going off her videos for.my house haha

[@sobiahrashid7383]

Me too

[@jessicashaw72]

Seriously! Please start offering design packages like maybe remote design my subscribers spaces or something for some videos! Please help me at least pull my spaces together 💫

[@Skyla0322]

I love how picky she is in good ways. She kinda knows what she’s looking for and puts a lot of thought in it.

[@callic1638]

Omg that first store is DANGEROUS. All those cute and gorgeous items I’d end up buying them all😂😂

[@nimishad4550]

I know right! But all the pieces Macenna liked I was like- she can DIY this one and that one and the other one 😂

[@_ashleylh]

I love how you can look at something that's not your personal style and still say it's beautiful, just not for me (the super contemporary stuff and some traditional). I have a lot of respect for you for not just dissing something because it's different from what you are looking for. I also respect that you called that store that you didn't like "vanilla"...not for you (or me) but that is for some people! I love the number one store that you picked! I love clean lines/modern style for most furniture, but some curvier, unique, older wooden pieces are fun, too! And I too feel like things in your home have a soul, too!!! That feeling is just hard to explain though!

[@elodia7832]

The more I watch MaCenna, the more I adopt her style. I'll be watching all the thrift shopping and furniture shopping video's and think like her. For some reason she feels like a sister I never had :(

[@kathyesargent9088]

I think a velvet sofa would look so cool in your cottage. That green one was so pretty. Have fun.❤️❤️❤️❤️ happy birthday❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@hahna77]

Yes.

[@sharoncherry]

You could definitely build your own dining room table. You are so gifted.

[@jlynd5526]

To me it’s the difference of warmth and cozy-comfy to cold, sterile and mass produced. I lean towards a very similar style as you but more minimal. Also, that cream dish with the black/grey floral would look stunning mixed with the greens you like. Thanks for sharing, this was fun.🥰🙏🏼❤️

[@RebeccaABeaudoin]

"ohh absolutely not" when trying furniture is a big me mood

[@amxranthine]

MaCenna! That tufted chair would fit in so perfectly with the beadboard texture!

[@Amandabbbbb]

I LIVE for this series!! It’s been inspiring me to really figure out my own style and every new video you put out is so motivating 💕❤️

[@XOMaCenna]

thank you so so much!

[@Amandabbbbb]

@@XOMaCenna thank YOU, MaCenna!!

[@msgambate88]

so your videos have been so great for me during this past year - kept me sane and I have learned so much; styling, thrifting, power tools (not ready for it yet but psyching myself up), etc etc, not to mention I now have about a dozen vintage brass candle holders, 5 or 6 salt glazed jugs and lots of studio pottery - so thanks for the twice weekly videos and the positive attitude.

[@XOMaCenna]

thank you so so much! hahah i love it!

[@justinabean94]

uncommon objects has honestly always been house goals for me :'D

[@enjay4real]

Back Home and Arhaus seemed to fit your style the most. Can't wait to see what you pick out eventually. Happy birthday! Thank you for taking su shopping with you. Good luck on putting your home together, and thank you for taking us on the journey.

[@ajbabay]

The next time you're in Austin, check out Primatives and Out of the Past, both on Burnet Rd. Out of the Past is a really cool vintage store and Primatives is more artisan and heavily rustically inspired and a lot of fun to look through. Both are locally owned and took a hit during the pandemic.

[@charlottewilson1947]

It may be because I'm British, but when she says "cottage-y" I think of classic English cottage style but everything she picks out makes me think of an Italian villa

[@zuriendrinkscoffee]

Haha I just find this funny! LOL!

[@karinakaye4448]

Yeah I don't get it. It's a bungalow. In America, it's usually called Ranch Style, I think.

[@ruthbindas2039]

Same (fellow Brit!)

[@corinnelsmith]

​@@karinakaye4448 ranch style homes are single story, long homes with a front-facing garage, and a low roof pitch. Her home is folk victorian for sure. Its a popular southern style of home. Folk victorian is usually a simple house but decorated with gingerbread style cutouts, spindlework, and decorative trim. My dad is an architect so i've just picked up things here and there over the years.

[@helencato9234]

If you want bargains, your shopping at the wrong stores and in the wrong City! Some of those items you're looking at I have seen in my own local marketplace on Facebook. Be sure and check that out.

[@choctaw5050]

When I walk into a specialty store.. I do expect the ambiance. If it’s a place specializing in vintage.. I want the music, furniture, and accessories to match the era. If I don’t feel the vibes… I tend to turn around and leave. I’m glad to see I’m not alone in this.. love your job, personality and talent. And glad your husband is very supportive.

[@1109gummybear]

I live in Austin and Four Hands is the manufacturer that sells their stuff to other retailers! Four Hands only has a couple of their own stores but sells through other places.

[@annabandraderavicini355]

Dear MsCenna, I'm barelly 20years old, and taking care of a full remo in my mom's house. You inspire me with your creativity and positivity, and give me courage to keep going with this project that my family really needs. Thank you very much for your videos and I hope your beautifull homes turn out even better than you wish!!! God bless you

[@XOMaCenna]

AMAZING! You can do anything you set your mind to! So proud! thank you so much .. I would say the best of luck but you dont need it! You got this!

[@parisday9631]

Have a beautiful Sunday everyone! OMG!!! “Vanilla”

[@anaschulz8084]

The aspect most people forget about furniture is the size in relation to the rooms they will be in. You have such an innate sense of style I am sure anything you pick will be perfect!

[@christinakelley1197]

Happy Birthday MaCenna!!! I absolutely love your videos!!!

[@lorrainemorris8995]

Happy Birthday 🥳 Macenna.... greetings from Ireland ☘️ love Ur channel it's been a journey...love how u mix it up with shopping trips, Disney, DIY projects 😜 keep going Ur living Ur best life and inspiring me with Ur can do attitude...I broke through a wall and put in a door...thanks

[@WonderKitty24]

I would love to do a stained glass project for your cottage! A lamp shade, or a transom window? Or even just a window piece.

[@amia_calva]

Can I request a video series? I'd love to see your take of design trends from different decades and how you would incorporate them into your style! Even if it was demonstrated through just photos or mood boards. I've got a 1880 farm house and I struggle to be creative with design!

[@shirleycarter2451]

Would love to see you make your own large dinning table, while you've been out with your lovely mum, I've seen you go by huge chunky wooden pillars( like candle holders you've often picked up that are wood) and I'm sure you'd be able to get huge plankes of wood and plain down. Xxx

[@hailzlambert]

YAYYYY YOU'RE BACK IN TEXAS! I love your LA videos, but I've become so invested in the progress of the cottage

[@jordanashleyblack]

I love all the stores! Have you thought ab buying on places like FB marketplace and refinishing? Custom upholstery is expensive but less than some of those prices! 😂 plus it gives you some content?

[@nwersen6590]

Yes! Completely agree with marketplace.

[@09ElSalvador]

Happy birthday MaCenna!! Thanks for taking us with you to these amazing locations. Enjoy your day!!! :)

[@brittianyistre]

Arhaus was my fav!!😍 My style. The atmosphere and I could feel the soul of it!

[@darlenesmith1858]

Happy Birthday!!! We will miss you but you deserve a break. Have a great week and know how happy you make us watching you get so excited! I hope you always love life this much.

[@000Shadris000]

I love how they sell pretty generic furniture as "french" or "european" whilst there's no big difference from the regular stuff you film in US shops usually :D :D

[@rneustel388]

Wishing you an early, and hopefully wonderful, birthday. I hope you are searching on Craigslist, at garage sales, and especially estate sales for the smaller furniture pieces (desks, cabinets, side tables, etc) you want. You have such a wonderful access to all this out in LA. I’ve often wished I had a fourth of places to shop that you have there. My favorite store was the first one. I want to move in and live there!!

[@DianaKPoor]

Your videos are such an inspiration, thank you for sharing .

[@marjoriemcmillan982]

Thanks for flying with Southwest Airlines! I retired after 30 years there about two years ago, but they’re always in my ❤️.

[@JohnneseP]

The first store was absolutely gorgeous! I’ve always wanted to build my dream home in the future and this series is definitely confirming that dream. Especially decorating and designing all the rooms. Loving this series and I can’t wait to see more! ♥️

[@beckyrubin3754]

Please try the awesome folks in San Antonio at Junk Star Handcrafted Furniture. Check them out on FB. They build everything themselves, a husband and wife team! If you can design it they will build it!

[@AnnaBell033]

That’s amazing!

[@kassiedomino]

We had our couch custom built and if you have the time, it’s the best decision! We were couchless for a long time but I love it so much now that we have it.

[@gymleaderaria]

I moved 45 minutes away from Austin recently (coming from Miami) and had no idea such cute stores existed. Im so excited to check them out this weekend. Thanks for the heads up!!

[@janeravusiro2789]

I've learnt so much from you. and Even here in a developing country, on opposite ends of the Pacific Ocean, where our options are limited, I still find your advice and insights applicable.

[@javabeanstudio]

We ordered a couch in January, even chose their "express" model and colors (since they aligned with what we were thinking of getting anyway). Were told 9 weeks... got the couch in May, 17 weeks later. So glad to finally have it, but that wait is killer!!

[@hollyweseloh6891]

“This Furniture does not have… Soul!” Ouch! Word! Nailed it!!! Straight Out of Kerriville… ♥️👍🏽

[@JL11775]

Loved the glass and metal pendant lamp in the first store. The price was not bad either.

[@jeanninef2110]

Love the shops! I really do prefer the same shop as you! I love the laid back vibe! Have fun choosing!!!

[@colby9743]

Ooh lala! Excellent timing. In need of ideas for my attic that it's being renovated at the moment. Btw: If you have a resellers license you can get your lighting at wholesale prices by directly going to the manufacturer. You can pay for labor cost with your savings.

[@SarahHam33]

Okay, but that one staircase 😍😍😍

[@laurielarocque8462]

Omg. That pendent light you found in Back Home with the glass and what looked like copper. I love that and want it! Can you find another supplier that would ship to Canada. I am obsessed.

[@lauralee2248]

The Conrad little chest you loved would look amazing as a sink cabinet !!

[@KristianClariel]

She deserves 1 million subscribers!! 😍 She has ber own unique style of interior design😍💕

[@jordyngreen7427]

I would love it if she filmed the contractor meetings so we got the behind the scenes

[@chaiselapacik9736]

Happy early birthday, Macenna! I hope you have a wonderful day! You deserve it!

[@brendacampbell7537]

Thanks for taking us along on your shopping journey. I'm sure you will find the exact pieces that you are looking for. Have a great Birthday! Wishing you a blessed day for a sweet and kind person.😊❤🌷🎈🎉🎊🎁🎂🍨

[@lindasaav7364]

Loved this video! So fun seeing the different stores and hear you talk about furniture the way you do! I have no doubt that you will turn the cottage into something absolutely spectacular! Your style is so unique and I just love how you mix and match it all into perfection! This series is perfection!

[@DumbVampire]

Yay, always waiting for Sunday to come around for this series!

[@Abmarp]

You dropping on the couch and saying "Absolutely not" is hilarioussss

[@jennmcgee1027]

You are such an inspiration for women of your age range to follow! So classy,mature and an excitement for life! Your parents must be very proud of you! Romeo too!

[@2009ccastillo]

January 2023....ummm are we sure we want this furniture? ...Let's keep watching 🤣🤣🤣😄😄🙈🪞📻 👵🏻🧓🏾

[@donnamcknight3175]

Enjoyed the shopping trip. Big decisions to make! Happy B-Day!!!! God Bless!

[@manuelayala2344]

I live in Austin, and I'm so excited to go visit these places. Thank you 💛

[@heyoh1808]

Uncommon Objects is Grav3yardgirl's favorite place

[@kyavner]

I knew it sounded familiar!

[@adadeleon8744]

I was looking for this comment! Lol

[@khloevlogs]

Yes! I knew it sounded familiar

[@corinnelsmith]

i knew i knew that place! God i havent watched her in years, that makes me sad. I am going over there now. Weird thing is, i have her notifications on and havent had one from her in years. I think youtube only actually sends me notifications if i constantly watch someone, even if i have the bell on.

[@stacysnp]

For anyone wondering by chance, Arhaus is pronounced like “our house” 😃

[@michellerudis4068]

Hi MaCenna! Just subscribed and love what you're doing to the Texas Victorian cottage. Also wanted to mention the area that you were shopping in this video was the home of a lot of German settlers way back when. Ergo, all the many German sounding town names in the area. The shop you visited called Arhaus is probably a nod to that heritage and is probably pronounced "Our House." Cute, huh? Anyway, thanks for the fun and informative channel!

[@beverlycrabtree9889]

So excited for Sunday’s to see you!! Love watching

[@13brittt13]

When I go thrift shopping now, I keep finding myself looking at things thinking, wow, I bet MaCenna would like this! lol.

[@bbboo8534]

I love your videos. I don't even own a house but If I had, I would totally make my house look like yours. lol. Can't wait. You have also help me develop me to understand my style. Thank you so much for that.

[@aiangalang8452]

love tagging along while you shop! hha advance Happy Birthday MaCenna! 💖

[@susanmcguire4664]

Another fabulous video. Thanks for all the time, effort and work (editing) you put into making these videos for us. We really appreciate it. I can see so many lights and furniture pieces that look beautiful in this video. I live in Australia so it is interesting to see what you have for sale over there in America. Wishing you a very Happy Birthday. Celebrate in style xoxo

[@layla2145]

Back In texas, I am so exited!,

[@AbiBloomUK]

Yessss ! I needed this vlog right now 😍

[@waterbitten]

Why is watching you shop more fun than me actually going to the outside 🙃

[@lose999]

Happy Birthday!🥳 This was fun. I agree with you about the Louis Shank furniture... The other places were more inspiring. I love your attention to detail and wanting things that speak to your style. Let the search continue...

[@Fr3nchTMilaan]

its a common mistake but I thought you should know the Victorian Era is from 1830-1900. It is considered Edwardian if its from 1900-1920.

[@Heyu7her3]

Oh wow, I'm actually shocked anyone would think Victorian is 20th century...

[@She.Follows.The.Sun.]

Woot! This just confirmed that I am familiar with Victorian, because it's a bit of my style too.

[@MarthaJ1129]

Such a positive light in our week!! Thanks!

[@ElleBlissSolorio]

LOVE uncommon objects! I was hoping you’d go there when I saw you were heading into Austin! It was a must see when I visited, and I loved it so much I went twice in one trip! 😂

[@tlew9429]

Some “soulless” furniture just needs to be in a curated home. Some stores are just thrown together, just like vintage booths. Love when things are styled.

[@peytanmartinez4413]

When you found that desk on 4 different sites it reminded me of a tiktok where I saw a guy contact the manufacturer of an outdoor couch and he got it made for like 2k instead of 7k or something like that

[@jelenajekic6852]

Have you tried Article? I think their type of style would fit perfectly in your cottage ☺️☺️

[@gzk88]

That glass and metal dome light fixture... Wow!!! 😍

[@soupafleye]

that vintage/old style chest/table and the vanity set shown at the end are soooo pretty I love that vanity desk its just so gorgeous. id pay 700 if I had the money 😩

[@pamelabowling7959]

Wishing you a wonderful Birthday 🎉 and I can’t wait to see how you decorate the cottage 😊

[@andibrown7657]

I just recently started watching the videos, I love them! I'm so happy you found a home in Texas ❤❤❤ I don't know much about crafts or renovation projects, but just a thought.... Could it be possible to take measurements of your couches and get material to cover over your original couch??? For when you have gatherings or parties?

[@4thloveofGoD]

Happy early Birthday! I am loving the series.

[@gailbradford305]

Beautiful gold band you’re wearing today.

[@anyajones01]

Is that a wedding band?!?

[@andreamoore756]

I was wondering as well??.

[@janeravusiro2789]

🤔

[@sandrapbell]

My thoughts exactly! Is there significance to this ring?!! 🤔 Inquiring minds want to know! 😘

[@mrsconniewynn]

Loved this video! So exciting to see all the beautiful furniture with you. I also wanted to say I think Arhaus is pronounced like “our house” but I could be wrong! Thank you for taking us on this trip with you!

[@kourtneyc2969]

Even if you don't do custom, furniture is really backed up right now! Our non-custom couch took 6 months to get delivered!

[@dominiquealanis9313]

Happy early birthday! Hope this year is filled with many many blessings. 😊

[@sarcasticimpling]

Happy early birthday!!!! This was a great video, loved seeing all the different store and furniture vibes!

[@jackistemper1419]

That was fun ....looking forward to many more trips!!

[@kbrooker267]

Have a wonderful birthday day🎁🎂

[@tameragray702]

I look sooooo forward to these darn videos 😭❤️

[@heathergridley8922]

I just love your upbeat personality!

[@Kathleen5429]

Have a wonderful and blessed birthday, beautiful!

[@robbijj]

Happy birthday, Macenna!

[@elzettevanthull7001]

Happy early birthday, all the way from South Africa. I just love your videos and cant wait for the newest upload. You are such an inspiration.

[@dianebutts4930]

Thanks for another fabulous video and Happy Birthday (enjoy)!!!

[@francoisviljoen7214]

Early congrats on your birthday love, hope you have a good day and get at least fabulous prezzie/find for the cottage🎂

[@marinamercer7846]

Girl your make up in this intro is perfection.

[@lorikegley3327]

Oh my goodness, your killing me! I also preferred the stores you liked. That last Arhaus sectional was so stunning! I hope you have the loveliest birthday! 🎈🎈🎈

[@beverlyhernandez2148]

Arhaus has the best furniture hands down. If you go with them, you will not be disappointed. ❤

[@colleendobsondatum3643]

Happy birthday! Have a great time! 🥰

[@ninajohnson6578]

Austin from the sublime to the absurd! Love visiting!
