Are you going to DIE if you don’t have it?! 😆 Come up with a better mantra to check your overspending below👇 GO!!

[@MoonbeamStarlaSilver]

I just simply ask myself if it is a want or a need. Sometimes I obsess to the point of feeling like I'm gonna die if I don't go ahead and buy it. LOL Had to come back an edit to let you know I switched up my user name again. Tis I, Dawn Robin. 🤣🤣🤣

[@treluvstrees999]

I imagine myself paying cash for it. It is so easy to swipe a card. But when I picture my savings account shrinking… hmmm… 🤔 I usually leave the item in the store.

[@xiomaras95]

My mantra when it comes to shopping (and passed down from my mother) is “When in doubt, do not”. It works for me!

[@mjwebb6160]

My mother passed down "When in doubt, throw it out".

[@JulieKhuu]

LOVE THIS! Succinct 👏🏻

[@Stellaperez658]

I just had my entire house painted so I had to remove everything in every room! I got rid of sooo much bringing more space to each room n light! My mantra is: DO I REALLY NEED IT! One of your best videos!! Thanks Julie!

[@JulieKhuu]

Most of our “wants” have been reconditioned into “needs” Stella! 🤣 haha you’re absolutely right, we don’t need a whole lot! Just to be inspired by the pieces that make their way through purges/ donations/ and moves 😉

[@anitaw3255]

Same recent experience. Removing and purging was so liberating.

[@Noreenlee1]

Wow, that's a whole lot to absorb. You really give us viewers bang for our buck...for free!

[@JulieKhuu]

Thank you Noreen! Quick, simple, almost NO COST tips! 🤗💕

[@enzacavalier7888]

I just donated some old towels and blankets to my local animal shelter. Animal shelters are always in need of towels and blankets!

[@JulieKhuu]

And stuffed animals! I learned that from the viewers 🙏🏻🧸

[@Nic2Blk]

Thanks for the reminder!!

[@terricheatham3293]

My mantra is “where are you going to put it?” I have a very small home, and LOTS of hobbies! Also, a teenage boy, a large dog and 3 cats. Space is limited, so I need to know where things will go before I bring them home.

[@AndYourLittleDog]

Julie, if it’s not too personal, I’d love to see more pictures of your traditional wedding. The headdress is so lovely!

[@JulieKhuu]

I have a ton of footage, vids, and pics on my IG > wedding highlights 🩷

[@kbs7583]

You are as though I'm watching a good friend who's giving advice. Fun, honest and genuine. And so valuable. Thanks Julie!

[@saraheschweiler4939]

Speaking of helpful mantras, I once dated a fellow who was completing a Ph.D. program in Psychology. I had just bought my house, & moved from a 200 square feet studio to my new (to me), 1924 Storybook-style cottage 1000+ sq.ft home. It seemed every where I turned, I found items that I thought I might need or want! One day, he said to me, "Isn't it great to know that there are so many beautiful things in the world that we do not have to own?" This thought has helped when I am not sure how important it is to have a particular 'something' in my life. Consequently, sometimes I acquire a particular item; sometimes, I just appreciate its existence. Thank you, @JulieKhuu, for your upbeat, thoughtful, & helpful design explanations & encouragement! 🙏🌿💐🌿😊💚😘🌿💐🌿🙏

[@JulieKhuu]

Ok, THIS IS IT!!! 👏🏻 Having a degree in Psychology myself (BA not PhD 😅) I value this statement as it resonates with us emotional spenders. I realize now after decades of “retail therapy” (plus mtns of donations that ensue) that I just like to look. Striving to become an emotional window shopper from now on! 😂 Love this Sarah! Thank you for sharing! 🙏🏻💗

[@saraheschweiler4939]

@JulieKhuu , gosh, thank you for your kind reply! I didn't realize you have a background in psychology studies--how cool! I bet it serves you well as you work with your clients. It obviously helps you create wonderful, caring content for those of us in your youtube community! Thank you for all the insights & wisdom you share, dear Julie! 🙏🌿💐🌿😊💚😘🌿💐🌿🙏

[@ShawnaMccoy-js4bm]

"Think before you splurge, and your home will thank you!" really resonated with me, reminding me to prioritize functionality and value while decorating on a budget.

[@patp2573]

I have a small house (downsized big time :) I have no room for new stuff so my mantra is "What will I throw out to make room for this?" It hasn't necessarily stopped me from buying it, but it does make me think about it. - and I DO make myself throw out the old item.

[@treluvstrees999]

That’s a good one!

[@user-jm7cq8ne8r]

I was skeptical about improving my small house's interior on a tight budget until I watched this vid! This offers incredibly creative and budget-friendly solutions for making small spaces feel spacious and stylish.

[@sanifoo]

“Am i going to die if I don’t have it..?!” The Asian parents way for aversion. Always works 😂

[@JulieKhuu]

Haha exactly 🙌🏻😂

[@nnnbooks1211]

I love, love, love these tips. The one tip that I agree with so much is "buy what you love." I recently moved into my own new place, which left me with a very little budget. Nonetheless, I still tried to make my place look nice and so set my mind on mimicking some styling ideas I saw on the internet. However, the moment I unboxed newly bought stff and placed every new item in my place, I hated it - the colors bugged me, the texture bugged me etc. The next day, I returned all the stuff I had picked up befre and got everything in the store that I imeditately liked,wthout thinking if it would "go together." I managed to pick stuff within my budget and be happy with every single item. and... Voila! Not only am I now surrounded by things I am happy to look at every single day, but somehow my mind made all the good choices and picked stuff that "worked together" and was cohesive

[@dianeguy7452]

I love table lamps and I love to put amber bulbs in them. I leave them on all through the night and day they just give such a pretty glow.

[@JulieKhuu]

That’s such a great idea! I can see how much cozier the space feels 😍

[@JanetCaterina]

This was really upbeat and encouraging. I love seeing the unusual room designs, very inspiring. Thank you.

[@annie--sc]

"Am I going to DIE if I don't have it?" It's literally the exact same question I ask myself before I splurge!! 😂

[@JulieKhuu]

Yes!! We got it down Annie! 🙌🏻☠️

[@MJ-sy2en]

I listen in to further know what I like, and don't like here Julie, or come to listen to you talk. Your voice is relaxing to me. 😁 You're doing the channel right.

[@JulieKhuu]

Thank you so much for watching and sharing feedback MJ! Helps immensely 💗🙏🏻

[@lydiadizon5549]

When we moved to a smaller house I learned my lesson big time. I used to just buy anything and everything that I fancy at that time, and I ended up giving away and donating tons of things that I do not really need, but parting with them was another story...LOL. I now double, triple think before I buy things. I still purge especially clothes and it's pretty unbelievable as it seems like it's a never ending purging. There's a local charity where I live that sends us their pick up schedule and they come around at least once a month. Once again, I love watching your videos for tips like this.

[@nashantam]

I love this post! It really resonated with me.

[@kathleenwiens6763]

I see you, Gabby's Doll House!

[@nirvanasanctuary7691]

11.26 - sooo close to what I'm aiming for but hoping my tweaks don't ruin it.. I'm definitely refining my ideas thanks to you Julie, you really do help me dig into thinking about my own personal style way more than any other channel I've watched. THANK YOU :)

[@JulieKhuu]

Awesome!! That’s always my goal! To inspire YOU to live your best life ever right now through design ❤️

[@jennypaloumpis1684]

Great video!!

[@nataliaj.pontemoniz738]

I am Portuguese, but I’m live on United States and I love to see you videos. Thank you for sharing!! ❤

[@JulieKhuu]

Thanks for watching Natalia 🙏🏻💕

[@tquirkyt7118]

✨My mantra for decluttering: “If all was lost in a fire, would I repurchase?” ✨🖤My mantra since design school: When in doubt- paint it black🖤❣️I’ve always told people to only buy what they love, then the common thread will be their style. This removes the draw of buying trendy and disposable design.❣️

[@kimberlytt9454]

My mantra is "Do I use this enough to justify it taking up space in my home?" If not, then it has to go. I use my neighborhood's Buy Nothing group to gift unused items to my neighbors. Being in this group has helped me part with so many pieces I was struggling with part with that were cluttering my home (like sentimental clutter inherited from my family that I don't use).

[@teresitabarnett8853]

Great video Julie. Thank you for sharing and inspiring us.

[@JulieKhuu]

Thank you for watching Teresita! 🙏🏻🌸

[@lindalutes1937]

This was great! Lots of wisdom and I agreed with everything. :-) I downsized to 1/3 what I had lived in and know about keeping only the things I love. My favorite place for donating, and finding treasures, is St. Vincent de paul. Money stays in the community and helps those in need.

[@JulieKhuu]

St. Vincent de Paul is considered an expensive “high end” thrift in these parts lol. I love the ones in Beverly Hills! A treasure trove! 😍

[@melissanagy7744]

I have a beautiful wine bottle that I put my Dawn dish soap in and add a olive oil cork with a pour spout. Look lovely by the sink

[@juliem.3936]

Interesting homemade idea!

[@JulieKhuu]

Perfect way to repurpose and display what you love! 👏🏻

[@mhata7535]

Love this & the encouragement to display momentos that personally mean something. I stow them away thinking it doesn’t fit the decor or what the designer told me.

[@clemenciarannoko9200]

I am impressed. Will have to act soon to declutter

[@JulieKhuu]

A plan plus a deadline- that’s all you need! 🙌🏻

[@cindylake7193]

Julie, love this video. Great advice.

[@JulieKhuu]

Glad it was helpful Cindy, thank you for watching 🙏🏻

[@snorlund1]

This was an interesting video, Julie! 😊

[@JulieKhuu]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for watching 🙏🏻

[@rhondasimms554]

I hardly ever fall in love with any "thing," but when I do and have to have it, I need to find it on sale. I drop my donations off myself at several collection centers. Good Wiill, Veterans, and a non-profit called Steered Straight. I have always had my silk wedding bouquet displayed in my homes. It made the cut this time too.

[@tandajohnson8617]

Thank you! You always inspire me

[@homednbinc7353]

Loved this video. Thanks for such great advice 😊

[@sarahwood3888]

Thanks so much for another great and informative video!

[@carolynratliff1380]

I love to donate to the RESTORE…..habitat for humanity….they really appreciate anything but clothes.

[@JulieKhuu]

I shop there all the time! Love the secondhand furniture - they’re great with offering discounts as well 👍

[@barbaraknox2881]

Another great one, Julie! I’m going to check out your small spaces videos!

[@JulieKhuu]

I have an entire series dedicated to those small spaces Barbara! Thank you for watching 🤗💕

[@audreymoore1743]

I declutter my closets and rearrange pillows and knickknacks a couple times per year. I typically donate home goods, but resell clothes and shoes on Poshmark and Mercari. And the makeup refresh is a necessity. I realized that I haven’t bought any new makeup since the pandemic and decided to start anew…my skin will appreciate that! 😂

[@KB-hs7vh]

Wow! I love how you shared about the pieces that have moved along with you. How fun and special! 💖

[@JulieKhuu]

They ARE special! I have pieces in storage that I can’t wait to use again… next house! 😂

[@mariagwinner2645]

Love your work thanks for the great service 😊

[@JulieKhuu]

Thanks for stopping by Maria 🙏🏻💕

[@marilyn6905]

Loved this bountiful basket of suggestions...and am always interested in how people Evolve over time & what they Keep or Part with thru the transitions!

[@JulieKhuu]

I make seasonal assessments so it keeps me in check Marilyn!

[@vibewithme425]

All of my favorite drops today!! Thanks Julie!! Can you do something about window treatments for kitchens..galley style. My kitchen doesn’t have a window over the stove. I use veterans donations as well!!❤

[@JulieKhuu]

Sure, I’d love to do a roundup just for kitchen. My favorites are non-woven shades. Simple installation, low maintenance 👏🏻

[@wendykornfein3337]

We can be creative without necessarily be concerned about what's in or out. I like that. For items to dispose of, Goodwill and the Salvation Army. I never considered the Vietnam Veterans. Thank you for that.

[@JulieKhuu]

Watch the trends, but don’t subscribe to them 😉

[@TheDriftwoodlover]

I donate to a local charity shop that supports local people in need by running shelters and other programs. It’s convenient to get there and helps my community.

[@dawnedeboer1645]

Really great ideas. Thank you

[@JulieKhuu]

Thank you for watching Dawn 🙏🏻💕

[@juliem.3936]

I recently took a free color course and found complementary colors for my teal couch and chair from Lay-Z-Boy. So, I've ordered burnt orange throw pillows. I have a nice, abstract rug with teals, oranges, browns, and greens. The living room walls are white, and I'm thinking of getting white curtains to go with the white fabric shades. It's a very small house and I want to keep the white to make it seem bright and open.

[@JulieKhuu]

Thank you for watching Julie! Check out the rating my past designs video. I have a client that I’ve worked with for over a decade from home to home- his color scheme is what you’ve described. I want you to see how I’ve carried his aesthetic from move to move. All the teals and oranges your heart craves 💙🧡

[@juliemarkham4332]

Yes, I see how you carried the turquoise and orange esthetic throughout with accent pillows, throws, candles and napkins. It appears David's main color was gray (and then tan). Thanks for drawing my attention to it. 😊

[@_JanetLouise]

Lots of Great ideas! Thank you. I'm enjoying creating gallery walls .....

[@JulieKhuu]

You can never have too many 🖼️🖼️🖼️😉

Amazing ideas 👏

[@JulieKhuu]

Glad you like them! Thank you for watching 🙏🏻💕

[@audrey3503]

I recently purchased a new dining room table, chairs, and server which I'd been wanting for years, so to make room for them I gave away my old set, hutch/server and a curio cabinet- both loaded with things that I mostly didn't care about- to a friend's son. For this transition, I ended up packing 8 Large boxes of decor, figurines, and table linens that had no sentimental value to me, many of them thrifted over the years, which I donated to Salvation Army. The items I kept are now neatly displayed behind a glass cabinet in my entertainment center, and great wall space has been opened up where I hung a gorgeous clock that was called Audrey- so I had to buy it😀. It felt so great to purge everything and just keep the items I loved, along with furniture that I now am in love with. I feel lighter in every way and so much happier. I highly recommend the great purge. Also I enjoy moving pictures and decor around as the inspiration hits- keeps things fresh and interesting.

[@JulieKhuu]

The great purge allows me to revisit old favorites again- that may or may not make it through the next donation round. I’m an avid thrifter. But every time I see myself donating items I’ve spent time thrifting, I wonder to myself? Is it the thrill of the hunt or the actual items themselves? 🤔 lol a mix of both, but more the hunt!

[@Seeexy1991]

Thx I love your channel ❤

[@lose999]

Gosh, I wish you could come to my tiny condo to help me with art and color. I'm a minimalist but these blank walls are stark. I downsized from a three bedroom home to a one bedrooms condo and gave away most of my stuff in a no- buy group on FB. I've been here three years and it doesn't feel like home. I love your energy...

[@allykoh6979]

I do spring cleaning frequently till before the actual spring cleaning like during year end, I really don’t have much things to declutter 😂

[@JulieKhuu]

Same here! I “clean” every room the minute I walk into it so I never really have to carve out significant time to do so. Organization is a way of life 💖🙌🏻

[@liangcarrie]

Love your videos Julie! I have an angled door in my bedroom, where do I put my bed? 🫤

[@Madina509]

My entire family knows that I’m a huge Julie Khuu ❤ fan! 😊I watch all of your videos, as soon as they are released. However, I have one tiny and minor complaint. I’ve been holding back for the last year or more. Lately, you are talking very fast; it seems as if I’m watching your videos on 2X speed. I can’t keep up anymore. LOL! I often find myself rewinding just to properly grasp your content. I truly hope my comment does not come off as a rude or offensive. But, I just really need to be catching everything you say. I will watch your videos even if it is 50 minutes are longer. Trust me! This is one subscriber who truly adores you and your team. By the way, great Amazon storefront recommendations. I just bought one of those satin nickel finish closet rods you listed 😊.

[@a.piz.916]

Merci pour vos conseils Julie!...personnellement..je m impose une règle : " à chaque objet , sa place"..ce qui m évite superflux et désordre. A très bientôt.🙏😉🤗🇨🇵

[@JulieKhuu]

I love this, merci beaucoup A!!🙏🏻💕

[@peggymalabuyoc9150]

Hi Julie, I love your videos and your tips! Many thanks for another inspiring/motivating one!🥰. Re: Donations, some I take to Goodwill and others to Restore. Here in Charlotte, NC local agencies that pick up are HOPE, INSPIRE, and AMVETS. They all pick up and I use them as well. Our Salvation Army will pick up furniture along with smaller items. We feel blessed to have all of these organizations. Again, wonderful video filled with so much information and so many tips! Take care. 👌🪴🥰

[@JulieKhuu]

Thank you for watching and sharing Peggy! 🤗💕

[@evabrazevica7382]

Thanks Julie for the inspiration!❤ I have a really small space and I try to keep it well organized, but there is this one room in my apartment where just everthing goes (kids toys, additionla chairs, vacuum cleener, paperwork...) Do you know what I am talking about? I use this room as home office and nursing room at the same time and it is extremely overfilled. It just screems HELP! How would you solve this issue? Thanks Eva

[@JulieKhuu]

Yup! Guilty Eva! 🙈 Remember the garage that I made over into my dream studio space? That is the dumping ground lol 😆 I’m shopping for a tall, wide, vertical cabinet that I can place in the space to hide all my junk. Move the cleaning supplies to a storage closet and create zones for the daily essentials. They’ll look tidier if organized together

[@lucygilliland3864]

I have a donate box in my closet that goes to the thrift store when I fill it. I also do the same Amazon cart trick to decide if I really want any particular item. I also have stories to go with nearly every piece of artwork or decor.

[@JulieKhuu]

I keep a donate box in our closets as well- so easy to do when you have all the tools ready 🙌🏻

[@sunnysandiego235]

I love the wedding headdress and that you are displaying this. I have a paper mache lions head from 1982 lunar new year in Singapore which I’ll add to a gallery wall. Good idea, thank you.

[@JulieKhuu]

Sounds fab!! 🤩

[@hagun6535]

Your suggestion of taking a picture makes it easy to see clutter and other mistakes. Also for Amazon I put my options in a wish list so I don't purchase by accident. Which unfortunately I have done.

[@MoonbeamStarlaSilver]

For décor, I have used a lot of paintings made by my granddaughter, Juliet because they make me happy, and she is my person. As for this particular video, I just want to see more photos of your beautiful wedding and attire. 🤗

[@JulieKhuu]

I made a video called “How to decorate with sentimental items” where I showed how I keep my wedding dress, invitations and photos on display ☺️

[@zellalaing5439]

I would love to see you do a video on window treatments for awkward windows, like those high up basement windows, circles & ovals etc

[@JulieKhuu]

I have it lined up Zella! Been working on this video for over a year now 😂 slowly working through all of those awkward window challenges

[@sofieangelopoulos1626]

Great video Julie! Thanks for sharing parts of your house, love the blue ball lamps and your wedding headress is stunning 🤩 fantastic tips as always! I need to use your over spending mantra of ‘will I die if I don’t have it?’ As I have wayyyyyy too many cushions already 😂😂😂

[@JulieKhuu]

Haha that was me and brass decor! 😆✨

[@youbetcha108]

Hi Julie I pack up bags and drive my items to Salvation Army. The ladies there are so nice and appreciative and I can see the store that sells or gives things to people in need. I had to throw away an 8 foot high broken book shelf and it forced me to box up all the items on it and donate or re place them around the house. It was like having new decor bc many of the things were hidden on that shelf. Lamps are a great way to add ambiance. I use lamps all over the house. Except the kitchen and bathroom. Putting out pillows refreshes the room and enhances the seasonal moods. Those toys will soon be changed out for tech and you will have your house back Julie ! It may even make you a little sad. Have a great week!

[@JulieKhuu]

Try lamps in the kitchen AND bathroom Margaret! I have lamps in both spots and love how they feel like little night lights ✨

[@Hypnosis_by_Shawn]

I would love a video for therapy offices. I use mine for one on one sessions and also group sessions. I’m wondering what you would advise.

[@debrahill2272]

I have the world's smallest bathroom in my 974 sq ft home..On a previous video you inspired me to paint it matte black..That's my next project..I really enjoyed todays, MASTER CLASS.. 💯💯👍👍🫶

[@JulieKhuu]

Yes!!! Especially against white trim, black is so fab Debra!! Send me pics 🙏🏻

[@patriciareed3510]

When I go to buy something I love, I ask myself…How many places can I use it in and how can it be repurposed into something else if it doesn’t go the way I want to use it.

[@JulieKhuu]

Love it! If you can’t answer those questions, pass 🙌🏻

[@simonekeijzer7468]

I use paint to freshen up spaces.

[@JulieKhuu]

Cheap and simple! Hardest part is clearing out the room 😅

[@1paradox]

Loved the blooper reel at the end 😅

[@JulieKhuu]

Haha my editor insisted 😂

[@addylunadellafave4861]

❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@flaviasilvaa]

Hi Julie, I just donated my sofas 😂😂😂 , it was collected an hour ago. We are waiting on our new bookshelf, sofa and armchair so it’s everything empty at the moment . In here they don’t collect furniture or clothes , there are some clothes bank around and for furniture need to place an add for donation. When I see something that I love I just walk around the shop to check if I find something else if that item still in my mind and I can’t stop thinking I come back and buy it 😂😂😂😂😂😂 Brilliant video ❤❤❤❤😘😘😘😘

[@kitty_s23456]

Good on you for donating your furniture! 👍😊 In another vlogger that I follow, her mom found a folding table which was discarded/left outside for anyone. Her mom was so happy to get her desired table for free. As they say, one man's trash is another man's treasure. Blessings to you! 😊

[@flaviasilvaa]

@@kitty_s23456 thank you 🙏🏼, I agree with you sometimes doesn’t do any good for us but for someone else is just right My sofa unfortunately was too bulky and big for my sitting room, the only reason was too downsize I am delighted the person just love it, she sent over some beers to thank us 😘😘😘😘😘

[@JulieKhuu]

One round around the shop will definitely tell you if you really NEED the piece Flavia! 👏🏻😆

[@DebbieFountain-kx8lc]

I'm clearing out my house to get ready for a remodel. I have been donating to VVA, so I'm glad to hear that you work with them as well. My one question is what do I do with encyclopedias from 1985. Is that something that I could donate to VVA, I can't imaging anyone needing them.

[@JulieKhuu]

Yes- people love to decorate with vintage encyclopedias. Omg I still remember when Brittanica was sold door-to-door! 😂

[@horselady65]

Our church has a little thrift store so we can supply a community food pantry so I donate my stuff there.

[@DGKK55]

I used to decant especially in the kitchen, but, couldn't stand the stuff out. In the bathroom I found the soap dispensers got to be a pain when they got near the end, so, I stopped there too!

[@JulieKhuu]

It’s a labor of love- extra steps, but looks less cluttered when everything is uniform 😍

[@gracegamboa1819]

❤❤❤

[@JulieKhuu]

Thank you for watching Grace 🙏🏻🩷

[@firestick4991]

I’m still working on my jewel toned bedroom. I used to live in tiny spaces. Our former apartment in San Francisco was 340 sq ft. Now, we have the opposite problem. Our house is huge! And we have two of everything. Two units joined by a laundry room. So we have two kitchens, two living rooms, two bathrooms and two bedrooms. Definitely over 2300 sq ft. plus a basement. And we have a lot of stuff to go through. We had storage units until just recently when we finally got the bulk of it under one roof. Purging is going to take a while. Given the fact we have so much stuff, when we go out we ask ourselves, do we really need one _more_ thing? If we can’t put it down and walk away, we know it’s a keeper. But it’s surprising how often we can.

[@JulieKhuu]

See!! Even large homes have challenging conditions to work with. That’s what I’ve been saying all these years on the channel 😅

How would you place a bed in a bedroom in a single story home with one door to the livingroom, one to the bathroom and one to a storage room? There's 1 door on each wall and an empty one

For my donations I use Greendrop and choose the Red Cross. I feel like after a house fire flood etc my things will really help others I also sell at a flea market to make some extra money

[@JulieKhuu]

How fun! I love flea market Sundays and always feel like the vendors know each other and get the best deals! 🙌🏻😂

[@carolhollinger6949]

All great ideas!!! i donate my items to charityas well.

[@JulieKhuu]

Thank you for watching and sharing Carol! Those pickup services make it so convenient 🤗💗

Giggle... I do have a technique that I shop by. If I see an item that strikes me, I walk away, do a full lap around the store and if, by the time I circle back, I'm desperate to get back to it and whew! relieved that it's still there. I get it. It's effective because, sometimes, when I get back and look at it fresh it's not as great as I thought it was. Usually it's still super awesome and I grab it up as if it were my baby cat I found magically wandering the store. MINE, MINE, MINE!!!

[@JulieKhuu]

Haha yes! The anticipation builds excitement or dissonance- I love it Kathlene! I’m going to use this method 🙌🏻😆

I always lived in a small house( the biggest house we had was 1700 but my parents had nine kids living with them). I've been doing your tips for years, decluttering, rearranging furniture and decor.... The only thing I don't really do is letting my personal style show. I feel like I like everything the opposite of all my family and friends. My favorite colors are sage, peach, navy, dusty blue, pale pink, violet, mauve, black, and white. I've literally have never seen anyones house with these colors. I also like florals and curvy patterns. I absolutely dislike beige, orange, yellow and brown.

[@susannegiesen2114]

Hey, why don't you give it a try and just start with one of your colors in a small area and see how it will work out?😉 Good luck and greetings from Germany

[@JulieKhuu]

Choose a small corner or your home or the smallest room in the house to experiment! Check out Jessica Helgerson interior design- she uses a lot of the colors you’re describing. Gorgeous muted tones, the moodier/pastel side of sunset shades 🌅

[@sara_387]

Have you tried searching 'dusty pastel decor'? Scandi decor can pull from that colour palette. You can bring those colours in with decor - throw pillows or potted plants, if you're concerned about your family not liking it. Or a great rug or artwork.

[@alla9916]

I am afraid it will look too childish, too unicorn like. Sage and peach look good, the second I add Violet it looks unicorn like. White and violet could work. Blue doesn't really go with any non neutral color. . I am just thinking "out loud here". Thank you for all your replies. I will try my style in one of the rooms and see if I can perfect it to not look childish.

[@nataliebutler]

​@@alla9916 Sounds like you have great ideas for colours to use in different rooms.

Ciao, ho appena scoperto il tuo canale e lo trovo molto affascinante, dato il mio amore per le case, l'arredamento e l'organizzazione. Ho solo un problema: ti seguo dall'italia e leggo i sottotitoli, ma tu parli davvero troppo velicenente e non ci riesco. Inoltre non riesco a d osservare le bellissime immagini che si susseguono! 😢Proprio impossibile! Tutto troppo veloce, parole e immagini 😰

[@susannegiesen2114]

You can change the speed by clicking in the above right side. I do that too, cause I love her videos but this speed stresses me out😉 ciao da Germania😊

[@JulieKhuu]

Thank you for watching Tina! Yes, as Susanna stated below- you can change the speed and slow down portions when inspiration images appear 🙏🏻🩷

[@irisscally950]

I put a box in my room to add stuff for donations. Thought I would remember to walk around it. Was dark and went to close curtain, forgot it was there and fell into the box, oops. 😮 😅
