Great decision on creating content full time! You are so personable and warm and I feel like you're everyone's best friend on here. You will do very well my friend! Thanks for sharing a little bit more about yourself and letting us get to know you better. Take care my friend!

[@ArvinOlano]

Awwww thank you for this

[@brosiaaa]

The moment someone walks in on you dancing in the aisle, Arvin, please include that moment in the video LOL! Love youuuuu

[@t.spencer7176]

That’s exactly what I was thinking! He makes My day when he dances in the aisle. If someone walks around the corner and sees him dancing, it would make my year. LOL

[@cherycheribon]

I was thinking the same you know Home Goods is always packed 😂😂

[@Mooommmmeeee]

If it's me, I shall dance with him!!!

[@christylopez4954]

Thinking the same thing but knowing Alvin he probably could care less. He was born to doing this ! It’s talent :)

Arvis, it's your realism that makes you such a joy to watch!🤗

[@rozetru]

HAHA! I was thinking the same thing!

[@barbsams7774]

Arvin you are truly a breath of fresh air. Everytime I watch you I catch myself smiling. Your shopping trips make me feel like I am right there also. Keep making us feel like we too can decorate.

[@adrianahewett9557]

Totally ageee

[@Syleee3]

Yesterday at HomeGoods, I heard a shopper tell her friend, as she’s steering the cart the other way,, “No no, that’s the Karen aisle!”, as they passed that one aisle with all the blinged out decor and pieces with word phrases. I literally laughed out loud! I know it’s just a matter of time before I walk up on someone twerking for a rug show!!! I’ve been following you since February, and I’m SO happy for you! Thank you for not selling out and sponsoring and pushing products you don’t really like- as so many KZbinrs fall into. Seriously, ALL THE BEST Arvin!!!

[@ArvinOlano]

Omg that’s the best lol!!! Happy yo have you here. And of course I will only work with brands that align with my own values and that will be valuable to you guys as my audience !! 🤍🤍🤍

[@gloriajagus4242]

Hi ARVIN I REALLY LIKE YOUR TASTE STYLE.L9VE YOUR GOOFYNESS .....I HAVE TO REMEMBER TO GO WITH NEUTRALS ...INSTEAD OF LOUD STUFF

[@brandishipp8098]

One tip for the guest bath - get a second shower curtain (identical to the existing one) and hang so they open like curtains. It looks super chic. You won’t regret it. xx

[@carrievaughn6165]

Love that idea! ❤️

[@marcerondon9744]

I love it, Where can I buy shower curtain?

[@binduvarghese-abraham1723]

Loved getting to know you more in the Q and A. Can we do another where we ask you more design questions or send you a photo of a space and you give us some decor tips?

[@wavixen]

I enjoy Andrew being in the background, he is there and that is cool.

[@daniellegonsalves3745]

I always look for pieces made in Portugal at Homegooods! Always great quality and being Portugese it lets me bring my culture into my home in a chic way.

[@ltgemini1599]

I have several Portugal pieces. Love them.

[@MyFinfinfin]

Thank you for putting your self out there, being vulnerable. I believe it takes a lot of strength to do that.

[@alicemoraldenis4286]

Guest bathroom came out great. I’m no where close to knowing much about home decor & design (that’s what I have you for ❤️), but I wanted to mention that whenever I’ve gone for dinner, holidays, parties, etc to homes decorated beautifully & elegant, the guest bathrooms always have small little white hand towels rolled up in a small basket either stacked horizontally or together standing vertically in appropriately sized basket. This way it’s letting me know I don’t need to use same hand towel everyone at the event has used. Also, spray them before you roll them up with a nice, fresh scented linen spray. It’s small details but makes such a huge difference. Keep extras ready under the vanity & refill if necessary. A cute vessel behind the clean hand towels could be used for guests to toss the hand towel when finished. The correct name for these is wash cloths. HomeGoods sells them in sets of 5-10 for great price. They are the smallest in the towel line up, they are perfectly square, perhaps 5” x 5”. Hope this helps elevate your elegant half bath. Also keep your new hand soap with pump a little closer to sink and with dispenser facing middle of sink for easy acres for guests & so you don’t find clear hand soap all over your basket & sink, or water from dripping hands trying to reach and access pump (speaking from personal experience). Thank you! 😘

I love it when you give out tips to remember on what to buy and what not to buy!! When I go to homegoods and is looking for an item, I always ask myself if that item is Arvin approved. It feels like you are also shopping with me everytime. Please don't stop in sharing your ideas. It benefits someone like me who is a newbie when it comes to decorating. Love love your style!

Oh Arvin, I began watching you for your impeccable taste, your extravagant, effervescent personality, and because you make me smile, but when I watched your face while you were talking about Andrew in this Q & A, you melted my heart. I hope you both always just accept each other for who you really are, because that's what true love is all about!

[@Ccgemini]

Question: Besides KZbin are you going to do interior design or home staging professionally? I don’t have Instagram therefore I had to ask my question here.

[@girlathebeach]

Arvin, you are so uniquely you and I'm so happy that Andrew see's that and the two of you were obviously just waiting to meet each other.I'm grateful that you shared your story of true love.So sweet! This is one of my fave episodes and gave me a lot of new ideas and yes more education that's helping me hone my own design style.Honestly-I don't even watch HGTV anymore,I just watch you! I'm so happy that you are able to do this full time now and follow your dream-that is inspiring.I'm wishing you all the happiness and success that you desire as you are so deserving.I hope you do a show on how to combine 2 or 3 different styles of decor.

[@ArvinOlano]

Hi oh wow this just made my night thank you for such a sweet message. I'm glad you are enjoying my channel so far. and that's a great topic I can definitely cover in a future video. Lots of exciting things planned in the future so stay tuned (:

You’re a joy to watch! I love your frankness and honesty. It’s nice to see someone who speaks his truth. Also, you have such great taste and I love your rug dances!

[@mbstyles615]

I feel like something that would be super cool is if you had a contest where you have viewers send in pictures or videos of their space and you randomly choose winners. And then you could give inspiration to makeover their space to be more modern and luxurious like your style. I know I’m starting to redo my room because you’ve inspired me but I could totally use the inspo.

[@Mdbeaton]

you know what I really appreciate about you shopping videos...it's that you also show what not too buy.

[@ArvinOlano]

Love it

[@sherrycook9864]

Love your authenticity and that Andrew appreciates you as well. OMG, I used to have to say "W" around my mixed black lab, Wu Chen or he would get excited and grab his leash.
