Interior Design Mistakes That Should Be ILLEGAL!

[@MrsBrian-sy9eb]

Regarding store bought art - I did buy many years ago two little Trompe l'oeil prints depicting goods in a pantry - they are really nice and well done - not tacky. Well - years later - I after redoing my kitchen - I put one in each corner cabinet glass door. I decided to track down the artist who's name was in the corner and when I found her - she was thrilled - she asked if she could use my photos in her shows and said she had never had anyone contact her to let her know her art had a positive influence. That made me a little sad and now I try my best - if I have a print that I really love - I will try to contact the artist to let them know the positive impact their art has had.

[@Namaste0130]

Such a lovely gesture …

[@Malcopme]

I bought three lovely prints from a local artist (Maude studios) of a peach, a pomegranate, and a strawberry, and hung them in my kitchen. She was absolutely thrilled, artists thrive on knowing they contributed beauty and joy to the world. ❤️

[@rainbomg]

As an artist, truly the BEST feedback I get is when people send me pictures of my art in their homes. I have a few clients that have whole walls of my stuff, and I’ve got many that will think to tag me even if the point of the post wasn’t to share the art, but the art just happens to be in the background. It is so deeply validating and invigorating to see our work out in the wild, sharing that with someone is truly a kindness and a gift! Thank you guys for doing that it’s really amazing of you and no doubt showing them that they have a positive impact helps them continue creating! I love this

[@bricksloth6920]

I have three throw pillows. One is round. I sleep on them when I nap on the sofa. I believe if it isn't comfortable enough to sleep on, it doesn't belong.

[@RagingCanuck]

Absolutely! Every sofa in my house MUST be sleep-worthy. We had friends who didn’t have a comfortable seat in their house. Everything was very chic, though. Visiting them left us with sore backs.

[@ginalombardi2507]

My tiny condo does not have a lot of room for art. But I used my doors. The bathroom door has a beautiful art deco mirror. The living room closet I took a red vest from China with an incredible back design. Put it on a dole and hung it. The bedroom has a framed photo of rugs I took in Tunisia. I still have art on my walls. An old Peter Hunt Silk screen I bought in 1970. Some more of my photographs, and a lot of other things like a big Mexican vase with a round bottom, hanging with a hanger and a rope.

What I think should be illegal is painted antiques. Such a crime to see a beautiful antique painted teal or shabby chic…just no.

[@lillianbarker4292]

Sometimes original art is cheap and good. Sometimes you can find great student art as you say.

[@topaz3468]

I really enjoy seeing MCM decor when it is tasteful and not Sputnik crazy. With that said, I grew up in the 60's and remember when my mother thought it would be a good idea to staple a green shag carpet below the chair rail in the family room. Simply an unforgettable vision. Hahaha. 😮

Hi Garrett, This is a hilarious episode! Thank you once again. We have been buying wall art from artists we find at regional art shows. We used to purchase art from an excellent art gallery in Toronto (since we needed direction), but the owner retired. We decided to trust our own taste and judgment - of course, our gallery owner had taught us a great deal about art. While some of the artists whose work we bought from the gallery are quite notable, the pieces purchased from local artists are exceptionally well executed and beautiful in their own right. We have found that artists are delighted to get commissions. One artist we found a few years ago has gained considerable prominence since, and we are delighted to showcase her work. I also have a charcoal sketch of a young boy’s face given to me nearly 50 years ago by a friend from university residence who was enrolled in the fine arts programme. I recently discovered she has become world-renowned and fetches into the six figures for her work! Her little sketch is now sporting a new, and much better frame! 🇨🇦

[@GarrettLeChic]

Thanks so much! Thank you for sharing.

[@aussieevonne7857]

Agreed about the grey. We've recently painted the walls in our main rooms and stairwells grey. They were previously a warm white. We chose grey deliberately, because we have a lot of colourful artwork and furniture and also a lot of wood accents, so we wanted a neutral colour for the walls. I'm loving how the grey not only complements the furniture and artwork (and the woodwork! OMG. Grey + wood looks wonderful) but that it looks so classy and refined with the white trim (skirting boards, doors and window frames). There is almost no other grey in our furnishings or artwork. It's purely a neutral, and it works well that way. Garrett, you've been a very, very useful channel to watch to help us with some choices and to confirm us in other choices we'd already made. Also sometimes, you've called us out as we hadn't made the choices you would have made, but we still love that for us. You're great, Garrett. By the way, I think thanks to your influence, we've painted our bedroom a deep, dark blue and it looks fabulous. I think you (and others, to be fair) taught us not to be afraid of a dark colour on the walls.

[@GarrettLeChic]

Glad I could be of help!

[@lauraricci611]

The problem i have with pillows is the need for them. The distance from the bend of the knee to the base of my back makes it necessary to have a couple if pillows to be comfortable.

I have some beautiful throw pillows that were really expensive and look expensive too. Conclusion I became obsessed with keeping them perfect because I never want to have to rebuy those pillows ever again, and when someone uses them to just lay down on them I get agressive on the inside but tell myself ‘oh my god those are pillows they literally use them for their purpose don’t get unreasonable’ and… yeah… they are really nice to look at, but they are really unnessecary as my two couches have good support. Don’t be like me with the pillows guys I just created a really dumb problem for myself 😅😅😅

We have found some great artwork at resale stores. Most of our artwork is from resale. I have also bought original art from an artist, but I can’t afford to do that often.

[@wendykornfein3337]

[@tst.v2926]

Make your own Throw pillows filling. You can turn a pillow cover inside out. Sew the end 2 inches longer than your throw pillow. Cut off extra. Turn back and fill. Those pillows that didn’t work out? Wash them, rip open and overstuff those pillows. This works for up to 20 x 20 pillows. I use hypoallergenic covers so you can wash things. Put that throw pillow you’re gonna fill in the throw pillow cover before stuffing.

[@lillianbarker4292]

I think throw pillows should be soft especially on the couch. But I have some cowhide pillows that are hard and scratchy but they look so good 😂.

[@mistyrose8527]

LOL 😂 I would think you would walk into that GREEN kitchen and say, "I love that for you." I just finished redoing my apartment. I ordered a very pretty gray sofa. Sort of an art deco style. (It is comfortable) However, it's gray/blue. So I had to change my colors. 😮 So, then I accented with blues, golds/silver. It actually came out very pretty. BTW.. My silver/gray pillows rest flat. 😁 You're a delight, thank you for all you do.

Space ship interiors only belong at the Disneyland Star Wars Hotel.

In Phoenix people buy little houses to flip and put in grey tile floors. Then people are stuck with these floors. You are so right! Most of the houses are from the 40s, 50s and 60s and have cool cement floors- some are even dark green, rust red or caramel brown. They also pull out all the plants and fill the yard with rocks. I think you have touched a nerve!😂❤

These people make the Environment even dryer and hotter...and flipping ist a greedy way of making the worst of the housing Problem....Just my opinion.....!!!

Another funny, informative video, Garrett! I can't deal with cushions on their edges/corners either. I usually get my art as prints on canvas, from online art websites, and framed by an art gallery. However, one time I was walking through a mall and saw a store called The General Store. Caught my attention because I could see they had some candy from back during my younger years like Pez. Well, propped up in this store was a 30"×40" original landscape picture on canvas. Trees, rocks in a stream, grass, mountains in the background. $150 dollars. Beautiful. It was an incredible find. Bought it and then got it framed. I have other prints on canvas that I have framed which have cost substantially more, but my fortunate find when buying candy will always be treasured. So, just like love, sometimes you find things (like art) in the most unexpected places!(By the way, I used to love watching The Jetsons!) Take care, Garrett!❤

Cup holders in furniture serve a purpose; forewarned of a literal faux pas, one moves swiftly smoothly to the exit of the establishment. Alternatively one could enquire if cup holders are an option and respond accordingly. I have recently moved and am unfamiliar with local furniture stores. Cup holders are a simple way to filter past purveyors of disposable schlock.

I know somebody who painted the interior of their house, every single room, gray. And it wasn't a light gray either. It was what I would call a medium tone maybe even darker gray. It was like walking into a cave. Well, it's their house and it's a free country, but I found it extremely depressing. And I don't know a single person who put in gray flooring that likes it now. They all hate it. I have gray countertops, but that's about the only gray in my house. well actually, the outside of my house I painted gray. Oops.

While his expertise is undeniable and he has no shortage of well rounded, accurate, educational details to explain any assertion he makes, my absolute favorite reasons Garrett will ever give for design advice is “I don’t like it” I lol every time, it’s so funny. Also thanks for reppin the artists and our prints! Some prints are $400, and often they are worth it, but honey if you have any taste whatsoever you can find an artist with good $20 prints, and you’ll be helping them start out on a very arduous journey. It feels really good to buy art from a real artist in your city, and we will think of you when we pay our rent or buy more canvas or whatever. It’s a direct investment into keeping your town cool. On a serious note, if you have chosen to “decorate” by putting a bunch of books into stacks on the floor in your home, that is a felony; and if it’s more than 25 and you never intend to read them, that is a capital offense. Books you proudly display (on a proper shelf, we aren’t barbarians) because you at least want ppl to _think_ you read them is only a misdemeanor, with reductions in your sentence if you genuinely _want_ to read it, but you haven’t installed your bathtub yet and that’s cutting into your reading time etc etc Books, those square stacks of papers, are great hiding places for insects and vermin to hide, to nest, and to thrive and keeping them on the floor like that will ensure that your floors and corners stay dirty and dark and lead to pests and mold problems. 🏃🏻💨👮🏼‍♀️👩🏼‍⚖️🏛️📚 👩🏼‍💼⛓️🔐

It's a great house for us and the view out the huge living room windows is east across horse and cattle pastures to these big snowy mountains where i get to sit on my couch and watch the sun rise every morning. Sooooo, gray inside but all green and gold and snowy peaks glowing outside.

@@ShelleybutyoucancallmeShell super broke currently from buying the house so even new paint isn't in the budget. If we never get there i guess it won't matter😅 I love the place, we just have way too much gray right now. It's ok though. Garrett gives me so much joy just knowing there's other stuff to be done in a home even if i can't afford it right now!

​@@raedorin979Oh, I understand! Well, you'd be surprised what little pops of color can do with lots of gray 'surround'! Colored glass bowl, or vase etc. Enjoy your new home!🙂

Isn't too much grey just about the same as too much red or too much blue, or pink or whatever? I don't like it unless there are shades of brown and beige with it, but I think that may apply to all colors. Sometimes too much is just too much! On my good side though, I do support artists. I have mostly prints in my own home. Most of them are either bird related or flowers. One beautiful Chinese original by a woman who is now head of the art department in a college in Minnesota.

True everything should be balanced, but it is far less prevalent to see too much pink or blue versus too much gray. Most people don’t paint their entire home in pink and use vinyl flooring in pink.😊😊😊

You are so right! I do agree grey is far more predominant when you're talking about "all over the place".. @@GarrettLeChic
