i have found a great "cheating" for those colored glas in windows - bc i thought it must be possible to do this with window colors i surched if anyone does this (buying all those colors is expensive and you have to d it very well so nobody sees it is not glas) - so i found an etsy a shop who does this, in lots of different variations he also customizes it on the perfekt size for your window - first i bought just a channuka motive not for the whole window to see how it is done..its great! looks like colored glas. really big tipp. crtvprinting does lots of art deco and WICOART is the one i bought from.

[@CasperLCat]

Nick’s “I Love That for You !” is the new “Bless Your Heart”. Varying degrees of snark, possibly, but expressed as sympathy.

[@kathleengarness1660]

"These are just trends - no one is dying here!' is my favorite quote

[@schoki1236]

In German, there is a saying that the phrase "Schön für dich" that could be translated as "Good for you" cannot be said in a nice way. It always sounds either condescending or fake or just mean. "I love that for you" goes in a very similar dariction in my opinion

[@llamasugar5478]

But, just like “Bless your heart,” a lot depends on the tone and context. I use both phrases quite sincerely. Aaand also sometimes on the snarky side.

[@CasperLCat]

@ You’re right, I realized that myself, later. I will revise my comment accordingly.

I used to be a Scandi minimalist and I loved it but when the love of my life broke up with me, my apartment was suddenly very depressing (we did not live together so it was not about her moving out but me spending more time in there diving in sorrows). Then I painted walls Art Deco blue, bought an orange sofa and started painting and my mood skyrocketed. It f-ing works, people. PS I am still a minimalist in terms of STUFF but not design.

[@MB-lg2il]

I’ve actually bought TWO orange couches for the same reason, well, not exactly the same but I wanted warmth and color for gloomy times. Minimalism, not to extremes, is calming, having things in just the right places. Hope your ❤ feels better these days.

I think it's one of those things that you either go real or don't bother. Like stick on marble tiles or cheap fake laminate wood, just no.

"Paint Cartels" possibly one of my favourite Nickisms! I find it interesting that grey is out but adding black and grey to make shades and tones of other colours is in. That transition you always reference. Decor changes are never a sharp left, they're an evolution.

[@vaderladyl]

you mean shades and tones that come from the main colors are in, because adding black gray and white is what it has always been done to create them, that is neither trendy or classic, it just is.

[@jenniferobin7260]

It finally happened! My home is now trendy! Mid-tone wood flooring, skinny planks, large windows that I added trim to look like panels, and moody walls (shady light outside the house naturally creates this no matter what paint color I choose).

[@bluedreams517]

That's how i felt through half the video. I've had soft yellow walls with mixed mid-dark toned woods for years now and just finished a 1.5 year reno of our mastersuite (we do them ourselves so it takes a while) for moodier colors.

I feel you. And also, if I do want some pops of color I can still achieve that within my really calm setup.

[@sgallant2107]

Inexpensive and easy changes: I like to switch up my artwork. I pick up good-looking amateur art for low cost at thrift shops. I buy some things just to re-use the frame and mat. Your child's art might look great in a proper frame. Add a colored rug/runner to a well-trod traffic lane in your house. Add some color to complement very white surroundings. Use what you have as fabric swatches (articles of clothing, dinner napkins, sheets of construction paper). Experiment with depth of color to see what you like (and don't go for the whole rainbow all at once - show some restraint). If you don't have any black, you could add in a bit, or iron-brown, or dark navy. Just a bit. Colorful drapes in a spectator print (a single color plus white) - or a multi-color print that adds some life (something that floats your boat - not boring). Or just BETTER drapes or curtains, hung close to the ceiling. Curtain panels are easy to sew - all straight lines! You could add trim to existing drapes. Best and least expensive idea ever: DECLUTTER!

[@chelseacheckington7421]

The cool thing about the trend cycle is that it can make things more available temporarily, which can be cool if you liked that style anyway. I'm a huge fan of the whimsigothic aesthetic, and I don't know if it's a style you've talked about before. I've heard it described most simply as a mix of bohemian and gothic, and a lot of these trends fit that aesthetic. I want dark muted colors, some folk influences (more boho, less country), and stained glass windows. I prefer a dark wood to a mid tone, and I also love a checkered tile floor. I'm considering doing a dark navy ceiling and a navy and white checkered floor. I have more maximalist taste and love the more heavy and ornate furniture. I would love if some day I have a space put together enough to take pics and send to Nick for a critique because I think it would be funny given our opposite tastes, with him preferring more simple and sleek things and me liking very extra decor, and I do still value his knowledge of interior design and would love to hear advice.

I can't say I'm into folksy, but I guess it's a start.

[@karenk2409]

[@jenniferlynn3537]

Hot damn! I’m actually on-trend for once! When I moved into a new place 2 years ago, the first thing I bought were stained glass panels for the street-facing windows. At the time, I literally said, “Stained glass is always beautiful -and sorely under-used!” To be honest, I think people just forget it exists. The panels I bought were about $325 each - and I hung them from pressure rods wedged very tight into the window frame. I wish I could append pictures - each add such a unique, upscale element to my decor!

[@KB-jl7tm]

I like your views. I recently bought a large apartment in a very neo brutalist building from 1996. Glass block is present in the building's design, and I have a curved wall in the kitchen all made of glass block. I was going to rip it out, but in the end, I renovated the entire apartment to look very much like it did in 1996, textured walls and popcorn ceiling included. I have to say the vibe is great, the glass block wall is still there but now surrounded by new marble floors and backsplash and oak cabinetry... and I feel good that I preserved the original spirit of the architecture instead of bringing in a new trendy style.

As a person who lives on a farm and lived in a farm house and have been in farm houses visiting friends, I’ve never seen an all white farm house. The closest to it is my SIL&BIL’s house that all the ground floor rooms are painted white. The wood work is dark. The hardwood is light mid. I can’t imagine having an all white house and living on a farm. Adults and kids can come in very dirty.

[@melissaweller3718]

One of the things I like about your channel-besides your personality, sarcasm, and the information- is the retrospective of design and design elements. Born in 1958, I remember the mid century modern of my early childhood, the 1930’s and 1940’s design of grandparents homes. Then the bright colors of the late 60’s and early 70’s followed by more traditional in the 80’s and 90’s. My mom followed trends on a budget. She thrifted furniture. Some pieces she antiqued, that’s a base coat with a top coat of stain. Some pieces she took to a Dip and Strip business and either had someone apply stain or did it herself. When she went to work at a Department Store in the furniture department, we had a Naugahyde sofa and chairs. In the 90’s she got a sofa, love seat, ottoman group in plaid with wood accents. It was so comfortable. We have a big family, when we visited, whoever ended up sleeping on the couch did not complain. Oh, Dad read Sunset magazine and DIY’d one half of the house. He knocked out the kitchen wall that was next to the covered porch, he then created an open two level kitchen by enclosing the porch. He incorporated scavenged bricks from buildings being torn down around our small town. (I always stop and take a good look at brick piles put out on the curb.) He also laid a brick floor in that section and built the outside walls of brick. He turned the carport and garage into two bedrooms. Red for the boys. Orange and green for the girls. Inspired by Sunset Magazine he built a staggered bunk set (with built in drawers) in the girl’s room and regular twin beds in the boy’s room. The shared wall had built in closets with drawers underneath. Each room had Dutch doors that opened into a big utility/laundry room with a bathroom on one end. All the floors in the bedrooms, utility room and bathroom were poured concrete. Oh, he built the shower out of brick and glass block. Anyway, going from room to room, the threshold might be an inch different depending on which room you were going into. Since he had expanded the kitchen on the outside wall, there was a set of two steps which he finished in brick. It was wide enough for 3 people to sit across. Of course there was a wood stove across from the steps and a mixture of antique furniture and rockers. At the far end by the front of the house was a combination food pantry and tool storage. Each of the outside doors from this addition lead to brick a patio or brick courtyard. I had four brothers who cleaned the old brick, and helped lay the floors and build the walls. The outside of the house had brick 3 feet up, all the way around. The rest of the house was covered in cedar shakes. The front yard had a 2 ft tall brick retaining wall on each side of the corner lot. The front walk was brick. It’ so interesting to see your programs on trends, shag carpet check, paneling in family room addition, check. Gallery wall in stairwell going to second floor, check. Going from drapes to wood blinds, check. Butcher block counters and island-authentic from an old school being torn down, check. Pot rack, check. Dad did the building, Mom did the decor. She covered the walls with art she liked, so Japanese prints, Van Gogh, Picasso, pieces from local artists. When they started to travel in later years they added decor they had picked up here and there. They loved thrifting, antiquing, craft festival’s and charity auctions. Dad dabbled is mosaics, so there were a couple of big pieces. I think that was during the 60’s. He also did a city scape silhouette in black paint on screen. These were two creative industrious people. I just watched it change from one thing to another, kept my opinions to myself and did whatever chores or tasks they asked me to do. The upstairs held 3 bedrooms and a bathroom. The porch roof was wrap around, so you could crawl out a window and hang out on the roof. They lived there 55 years. All the visitors said the same thing, “what a cool house”. When I watch you episodes I say “I remember that color, that type of lighting, flooring, wall covering, window treatments, decor.” Sometimes I say to myself, “I didn’t like that trend then and don’t like it now!” It’s fun to look back. What I learned from my parents was furnish your home for you and your family. Be comfortable, try something, change it if you want to. Enjoy your home. Thank you for you channel Nick!

I have no doubt that's why they're trending

Come back, PARQUET FLOORS! I grew up with you, and I freaking LOVE you!

[@Silverwings1234]

For 30 years I've had parquet floors and I still love them. We purchased our home back then and we never changed them. I can bring myself to!

[@valerievalerie5333]

You are such a pleasure to watch. You’re so witty and entertaining. As a fellow Canadian - so appreciate you x

[@cheamericana]

Love folksy because the answer is blowing in the wind

[@marciabyram6003]

Up with folksy and stained glass! Those are both good opportunities to shop and find items at the thrift stores. That fits my budget. 😊

[@elizabethallen4353]

Getting my white kitchen this week. 😂 no MLM though. 🎉

Same, it's small so no regrets 😂

@ good for you! 👏🏻👏🏻🎉

[@artichoke_air]

nick i love the inspo photos in your videos. Can you PLEASE create pinterest boards with the photos in your videos? we need them!

[@marroosh]

Not a single care given about trends. Just enjoying the snarkometer reaching its usual levels🤣

[@robinbirdj743]

My old house is pretty ‘on trend’ with its pocket doors, saturated colors, mauve and green stained glass windows, old matte painted freestanding tub, and hardwood floors! ❤

[@melligolightly]

I'm seriously considering painting our dining/kitchen area a dusty mauve colour. I know Nick hates mauve, but I love it! I looove moody, desaturated colours.

[@enmanniska5751]

Do it! You can always paint over it if you regret it in the future

[@marciamarciamarcia3117]

I painted my dining room Sherwin. Williams Glamour a couple of years ago. I still love it!

[@melligolightly]

@marciamarciamarcia3117 This is exactly the vibe I'm going for. Glad you enjoy it!

[@precursorpress5312]

The width of wood planks should be in scale to the rest of your house. Wide planks in small rooms look weird, as do super narrow planks in a giant great room with cathedral ceilings. I don’t know that there is a magic formula, look at samples in the space until you find the right one.

[@oceanmcewen]

good point

[@AnnMarieKing]

Yay, glass block! Had to retain this in my bathrooms due to reno budget constraints ... hard to keep sparkly with hard water in my area but it made more sense than shower curtains for my oversized shower stalls. Great vid as always, Nick!❤

[@stackels97]

Glass bricks bring me so much joy. I wish I had some in my home.

[@ElizaGlide]

Nick, I hope you know that I am filing all of this away for when I eventually redecorate my house entirely in Art Deco. Thank you for telling me the names of things so I know how to ask for coffered ceilings and parquet flooring 🙏🏻

[@nathalie_desrosiers]

I LOVE Art Deco. I hope your redecoration will be like you envision it.

[@pegt8920]

Just love your polite snarkiness! 🤓

[@MarsM13]

I'm hoping Orkcore takes off one day. Orkcore is a look dominated by red, grey, and brown. Brown leather and brown wood. Grey concrete, grey iron, occasionally grey stained wood(I've found that Aged Barrel Mw283 is the best shade of wood stain for this). Red leather, sedona red stained wood, a bit of red trim, red painted roof. Dark ages war/hunting weapons as decorations. Hide rugs. Raw materials and recycled materials. Exposed industrial elements such as large bolts where practical. Pointiness added everywhere it can be done safely, such as pyramid tacks & pointy plants. I've decorated my house Orkcore. Right now that makes my house look pretty unique, and I like that, but I'd like it even more if the look caught on and spread.

[@rachieface88]

Oh my goodness!!!! I HOPE block walls are coming back but pretty. I’ve always loved the EFFECT they give, but have not been so keen on the presentation. Love!

[@mjs4663]

Ugh. I hate how I keep choosing stuff that becomes popular. Been redocorating the past year. Desaturated blue greens paint throughout. Mid tone heavy midcentury modern pieces. A few select art pieces done by local people I know. I'm planning on learning how to do stained glass this year as I love it so much. I'm obsessed with sunlight and making it pretty is just a bonus. I'm also planning on learning pottery so thats the craftsy style. All of this stuff just makes me happy.

[@1amazingnow]

If you just sit and wait long enough eventually your home design will be fashionable again.

[@653j521]

The video said that wasn't how it works. It comes back in a different form.

[@do-uc6xj]

when's linoleum floors and faux wood laminate countertops coming back?

[@thesender6793]

Genuine linoleum floors are too expensive now to be mainstream. Vinyl flooring, which is sometimes referred to as linoleum, IS in style. (I wonder whether those patterned vinyl floors with the painted tile designs will ever come back.) Fake butcher block laminate counters are also back, but in a glossier, varnished look, without the waterfall edge or built-in backsplash. They look almost like real wood. Like Nick said, things come back in style but not exactly as they were originally.

[@BeckieBlanchette]

[@alicequayle4625]

Im hoping those solid yellow pine wood kitchens will become trendy before they all get ripped out. I think they could look nice with the right colour walls floor and worktop. Like sage green or mauve or harebell blue.

[@jamesdellaneve9005]

I am hoping for pink and black to come back!😂

[@karenk2409]

Never get rid of solid pine! Design around it.

[@vaderladyl]

yes they have always been nice but they are tricky to make them look good if the colors on the walls and accessories are not the right ones or in the right shades. Green is one that definitely complements it.

[@vaderladyl]

@@jamesdellaneve9005 don't wait for them to be on trend. If you enjoy them now, use them.

[@sgallant2107]

We had white laminate lower cabinets (brass bin pulls) with the original southern yellow pine 4-panel uppers (gold-tone "staple" handles). There was an attached shelf just beneath, clad in yellow gingham laminate by the original owner, and we added puck lights just above it. Painted the room with California brand "Peaceful" - a light, but not lemony, yellow. Added an almond vinyl floor and white counters, as well as two wide free-standing cabinets (which doubled the storage) - one with all drawers (held the microwave on top and dishes in the top drawer), and the other had two doors with pull-out shelves (which served as an island) - both topped with a rose granite laminate. All counters had beveled oak trim. How I miss that tiny bungalow kitchen!

[@TheRelaxationWorks]

Yay! A new Nick video! Now I can relax for another 17:08 on my Saturday morning!

[@nathalie_desrosiers]

I'm all for the *glass blocks* and the *stained glass* trend.

[@Mlpgirl168]

Cool! I adore matte finishes especially on countertops and I love the concept/simplicity of glass blocks-they separate spaces, let in light in a distorted fashion while decreasing privacy concerns, however they probably will not hold up in a hurricane (on the exterior) ..at least mine did not!! They blew out like a house of cards with the first strong wind gust…thanks Ian!! 😮

[@MB-lg2il]

Sorry! 😢

"Wood is timeless" meanwhile orange oak screaming from the depths of past 😄

[@elizabethallen4353]

@@elizabethwilliams4926 I love warm wood! 👊🏻

[@vaderladyl]

they are still alive and kicking. Timeless color, look at Nick;s furniture, for example. It has some orange in the undertone.

[@AlexisHiemis]

I have seen a lot of orange wood in more eclectic spaces, it's just that it isn't used in this abundance anymore and often offset with cooler colors to integrate it into current tastes better.

[@michellejacquesvenable6068]

My exact issue right now. Recently painted my kitchen white dove and trying to refresh and not sure to paint the 80’s oak (as I was told 😂) or get a newer updated one. I’m here trying to expand my learning of decor. Wish I could add a picture for reference

[@lepetitEllie]

I've been doing mid tones, or what I call jewel tones, for years. I love the asthetic...I have purple, teal throughout my home and ruby red in the office only. My kitchen remodel focused on aqua and the natural brown of cherry wood and alder...my hardwood floor is 4" planks. Just feels more natural and cozy for me. Wow...I actually feel on trend for a change 😊

[@Soul-cry1]

Don't know why but that giant blank wall behind nick is bothering me,, the clock isn't enough back there

[@juliemarkham4332]

Agreed.

[@angie-v3e]

My furniture is mid/dark tone, also thrifted. Went gunstock on engineered hardwood. Organic quality, affordable is my theme.

[@rishyswishy]

The fluted glass just reminds me of my grandma's bathroom window. But I'm so excited for the folksy! I love a bit of folk art.

[@tammybrennan2040]

Decorating is a great mood booster. Happy November

[@karenk2409]

moodier ... darker ... depressier ... cavier ... suicidier ... no. I notice your living room is lighter toned, Nick. People like folksy, fabrics, arts and crafts because they find them comforting, it makes them feel happy and secure. Never going away. Glass blocks are back? Who woulda thunk! Stained glass - the real stuff - has been around for centuries, and it is a beautiful way to channel light into your house. Go for it!

[@laseximexi]

15:03 It comes back in a different way dad. 🙄 Teenage Nick sass

[@RH-fh1rn]

Yay! I just had to wait long enough for my house to be trendy again! 😅

[@phenomadology23]

VINYL PLANKS ARE NOT WATERPROOF!!!!! As Nick says, a spilled drink is no problem. But the minute you get water underneath them they have to come up or you will get mold! I have also found they scratch more than you would hope, although less than laminate.

[@LULC0759]

Actually all the tests show LVP scratches more than today’s high end laminates.

[@dreamlife808]

Yay! I chose skinny, 5 inch plank walnut engineered wood floors for my new house.😁 My design is mid century, but more of the moody dark colors and traditional rugs on the floors with white walls and black fixtures.

[@channarubin8267]

really like, were the trends go. Like those moody colors& the patterns coming up everywere 😍

[@loristein6074]

Nick, recently remodeled out master bath. No shower but a huge 10 foot walk in shower with marble look porcelain 2x2 tile to the ceiling. The floor however is a rich dark brown lvp wood look flooring with a dark brown alder vanity. It is so warm and pretty and the flooring is very practical.

[@Geronimo2Fly]

Mid-tone woods!! YES!!!!!! I already picked out a mid-tone for my new flooring, before I knew it was coming back in style. In the flooring stores there are about 2,647 shades of very light floors, two or three of mid tone, and two or three dark. Maybe there will be a better selection of mids in the next year or two for those of you who are lucky enough to not need your flooring now. On the other hand I've never liked glass blocks. Didn't like them back when they were huge and everywhere, don't like them now.

[@128-4evr]

“Good for you. We love that for you”. Love Nicks attitude

[@yourconnection9303]

IMO, I think copper bathtubs are gorgeous! A relative of mine also had black glass blocks installed on one wall that separates the bathtub from a closet in the bathroom. They also put in a skylight above the bathtub. Everything looks gorgeous!

[@johnnarogers5636]

As someone who loves cottagecore and was in the early group chats as it emerged back in 2019, I'm so glad it actually became popular enough that i can have my cottage core dream home with stained glass and natural woods. Now i just gotta "un flip" my house that someone definitely renovated in the stereotypical flipped house style. The grey cabinets are finally pissing me off enough that I'm gonna sand them this weekend and have them painted by Christmas.

[@potpourrioflife]

The bonus of us all having different personalities and likes is that it is really okay. Creating our space is a reflection of who we are. I can't say I'm impressed with the new colors, but I do like the idea of toning down those dark spaces. We are looking for a new home, and some of the homes we have seen are those "trendy" colors when we are more traditional in our color selections To each their own and like you say "no one is dying here"

[@OMM-kl1zu]

Ooooh!! I love all these moody colours. So over white, greys and beige. Love the wood floorings. I agree the Oligarch bathroom look is vulgar. I love stained glass.
