[@jennimoyer4857]

My college-age son was visiting the kid's section of our local art museum where kids can make some art. Just for kicks he did an extremely simple little watercolor of a bird on a beach. He brought it home but was going to THROW IT AWAY. I grabbed it, framed it, and hung it by my bed and every night I look at it and think about how beautiful it is and how much I love him.

I've become so discerning since I've started watching your videos. I no longer pine for sh*t just because the algorithm is pushing it or it's trendy or whatever. I've been learning to tune in to my own taste and rediscover my love for colour and pre-loved things.

[@Notnatasha]

With grandmillennial being the BIGGEST trend this year do you truly love colour and pre-loved things or is it because it’s currently everyone’s favourite style?

[@speranzai]

@@Notnatasha I actually hate grandmillenial 🤮

[@natashatrilokekar2435]

@@Notnatasha fair point, but Grandmillenial doesn't appeal to me either! For me it's more that my parent's home was filled with Indian antiques, textile and colour and I grew up believing the Pinterest sad beige - white - grey minimalism was aspirational instead. Only now I'm starting to understand how tasteful and personal their style actually was...

[@Notnatasha]

@@natashatrilokekar2435 I love this ❤️ what you said truly helped me, I find myself also gravitating towards my parents British traditional style but was conflicted on whether I truly like it or antique things are just so hyped rn.

For yeeeears my parents had a 6’ fake ficus I absolutely hated. It moved with them twice. And, was part of Mom’s decor even when she felt the need to revamp her living space. She loved it. Now that both she and my dad have passed it’s has a place in our home. I just added lights, which makes me happy. I don’t know if I’ll ever part with that fake ficus.

[@goosegirl941]

Funny how that happens isn’t it 🧡

[@rachelblair17]

I think coffee tables books are great but I personally think they should be carefully chosen and not just any random book or a book that just looks nice or matches the decor. I think you'll get more out of the book if it's about a subject you actually love or find interesting. Otherwise if you've bought a coffee table book because it has a pink cover to place on a shelf to match your aesthetic I think you can easily get tired of it. But if it's a book on a subject you actually like you might even read it and get inspired by it or learn something. I studied art history and I have a ton of exhibition catalogues from shows I've visited and artist monographs. I also love gardening so I have collection of garden/landscape design books and I love pulling one out to flip through for inspiration and they bring me a lot of joy. To me having a stack of books that you don't actually read seem a bit pointless.

[@shelleyjacobs2563]

I bought a Georgia O'Keeffe coffee table book at an estate sale for $5. She is one of my favorite artist 🎨

[@chandaharkins4418]

I agree about the books and would apply your theory to anything, really. I want to be surrounded by things that reflect my husband's and my passions and personalities.

[@r-e_mii]

My fav coffee table book is Pasta. It's literally about pasta and who thinks that will be outside of the kitchen. Its fun.

[@maresaedwards8471]

I totally agree with this. my currently coffee table books are "tales of beetle the bard", "history of magic" and the illustrated version of "harry potter and the sorcerers stone"... I have a type. Ha. They've been my go-tos for a few years now and going strong.

[@harmonybarry6182]

Awesome video. Was surprised with the vaguely pro fast-fashion shirt advice. Approaching clothing with the same thought, consideration and integrity that you put into interiors, will always win. It’s literally the same exact home decor advice you give-applied to clothing. Boom!

[@Yahsbsuq]

Agreed. But I do think that it is a bit more difficult with home decor as it is always on display and is usually (not always) more expensive than clothing. But I agree. The same could be said about a lot of clothing. A video of the same topic would probably discuss having a great quality coat, good pair of boots, jumpers and role necks made from great fabric like Marino wool or cashmere, etc. It’s the overall mindset of being intentional with your purchases, knowing your style and sticking with timeless pieces of high quality

[@moamoa7067]

I feel like Coffee books should be mostly for inspiration and if you really enjoy reading it, instead of just something you should have just "because" it looks good. Unnecessary items that just collect dust and don't bring any REAL joy is insanity to be. I realized that as much as I enjoy having all my stuff as a creative, I acually are more grounded when the excessive stuff is gone....😅

[@dbee8670]

When I was in college 35 years ago, I spent $300 on an oversized painting that is a self portrait of the artist. I’ve loved that painting ever since. It’s lived in every house I’ve had. At one point, I took it to my office so I could look at it while working. Right now, it hangs in my front entry. It’s huge and dramatic. I’ve never regretted spending those $300.

[@SceneryEssenceRedesign]

Lovely! Investing in original art that is a few hundred to a few thousand dollars is always an excellent investment, especially if it's a piece you really love and admire; Paige really highlighted that well in this video! The works of art our eCommerce gallery creates lowest tier starts in the ($300's) three-hundred's price range and then goes up from there. Very affordable for original luxury art, all timeless one-of-a-kind pieces of custom original art.

[@bootalophosaurus2378]

You should do a series on pet friendly interior design. I have two cats and most of the things you can buy are truly horrid style-wise.

[@rebekahmikaelson1198]

ive heard that instead of doing cat trees, you can add platforms, scratching posts, and cat beds to your walls. like deconstruct the cat tree and add the individual elements around the house to make it work with your existing style. im pretty sure there's ppl who do custom wall furniture for cats. or you could diy the entire thing (a lot of the projects on yt seem a bit advanced for me, but if you're good at woodworking you could give it a shot)

[@EvaSkewes]

The best big cutting boards are "end-grain" and the end-grain (vs. face and edge grain) actually keeps knives sharper because they are somewhat self-healing. Mine is my absolute favorite for cutting and chopping. I love how they come back to life after an oiling and waxing.

[@kristencleveland8725]

I encourage everyone to buy art from street artists in cities you’re visiting. It’ll be a minor investment that you’ll keep forever (especially if you do end up getting it matted and framed). And I encourage everyone to pick up some cheap paints (acrylic or watercolor) and make your own art. Frame that and voila! A piece YOU made :-)

[@carolineharnish5633]

Yeah! I was a street artist in Europe & for someone to buy my art is such a joyful occasion!

[@olenabi]

When I visited Georgia with my family last summer, I bought 2 small pieces of art (landscapes of 2 Georgian towns) from an old artist in Tbilisi. I plan hanging them wherever will be my next home) Also bought 1 piece from an Iranian artist locally. When I look at those pieces, I’m so happy and never regret the purchases.

[@charmsz566]

i think the reason we might all 💚 vintage so much is because an items' patina adds life/warmth to our spaces... silver cups, coffee table books, cool wooden frames, old iconic lamps, all that shit! i set decorate w thrifted stuff too, it helps to create a 'real life' lived in look which i love. You add life to my day!!

Coffee table books are such an interesting choice; I feel like the only people I know who have them are like over 50? I've never totally understood the purpose, like these days even if you do leave guests to get bored in your living room, they're more likely to be on their phones than reading a coffee table book. I wasn't sure that coffee table books were still a thing, but if I ever decide to have them I'd want them to be something cool and meaningful.

[@charischannah]

I'm not a coffee table book person either. I'm a book person, so I have lots of books around, but the ones that are specifically designed for coffee tables don't usually do it for me.

[@meh5069]

Haha I’m the only person I know who loves coffee table books. But I’m berry into design so they’re a constant source of inspiration for me. I don’t have a tv in my living room, so I keep them accessible for anyone who’s interested. Turns out My guests do love To flip through them! (I’m way under 50😂)

[@mallorymckinney3317]

Everywhere I travel out of the country I get a souvenir that is a home piece (typically a locally made wall piece) and I NEVER get sick of them. And when I travel with my mom she buys me something from there too. Extra special ❤️

as an actual artist I endorse this message. Sometimes I wonder what's happened to my pieces people have bought - do they still have them, did they get tired of them, what sort of frames did they put them in? but I guess part of the whole thing is not being able to know.

Paige you are really helping me with the small, 1940 cottage-bungalow I bought a year ago.I have loved mcm for a long time, but it doesn't "fit" the vibe of this charming little place with its two round windows, traditional fireplace and niches. I'm honoring its cozy nature with pre-loved stuff including some of my mcm pieces. For example, instead of a trendy, brand new upholstered bed, I picked up a 50"s blond wooden bookcase headboard for $8(!) and my home's becoming the eclectic, highly personal space I've dreamed of. Thank you for the inspo!

Agreed on the framing. My husband’s grandmother had a framing business and we were able to get so much framed before she closed the business and we are so thankful because now when we have things framed we pine for the family discount. We also will thrift for frames! Even if we don’t like the art, we will buy a good frame and find art we like later.

My dad is an amazing wood worker and he made me a beautiful chunky cutting board with a really cool window pane pattern. I have it displayed in my kitchen and I’ll cherish it forever. I too have been obsessed with framing things. It is pricey, but actually the Hobby Lobby near my home does an amazing job. I’ve used them for several pieces and I have yet to be unhappy with anything they’ve done. Their frames are always 50 percent off too.

[@meh5069]

Yes! I got my first real oil painting off of eBay for $25. I got it framed at hobby lobby and it was 100% worth it. I plan to get many other things framed as they come.

I certainly agree Paige. Original art is something I believe the art admirer, art enthusiast, and art collector will never regret. I love art! Beautiful original timeless painting of works of art can really enhance and elevate a space instantly versus cheap prints, photocopies or giclée's (dupe replicas of art). Investing in quality works of art is a great way to take any house & home to the next level, plus you bestow a unique piece that can transition with you throughout life's journey to any room or space. Art is a great way to do that. Great video!

Great choices, Paige. Things that loved ones gift you should be put on display always.

Real late to commenting on this, buut on the topic of frames and getting things framed; got a litography framed for my partner this week, and the framer/framing person (is that even a word?) told me to consider frames as the clothing of the art piece. You get some real nice clothing for your piece and it will elevate and protect your art for decades to come. Poor framing will do the opposite. And it’s such a fun process, with literally thousands of possible combinations. What kind of frame do we go for? What size mat? What color mat? Should we do the mat on top of or under the piece? The result is undoubtedly much more interesting that anything IKEA can provide (and I love ikea like it’s my third child).

[@laliday]

Big cutting boards are very heavy. It's a significant downside in a small kitchen. Husband spent a lot of money on one, and it's the biggest regret and money wasted. When you are making sandwiches on it you have to clean it. Lifting it is a challenge, holding it up to rinse etc is even more challenging. You will avoid cutting raw meat on it because it's cumbersome to clean. Also certain wood tones may get tiring after a while. Nice to have in a huge kitchen or for corraling things, but a smaller bread board is much more user friendly and can be as beautiful of an accent

I have a beautiful handmade cutting board made by a local artist out of reclaimed hardwood from old Milwaukee buildings. It's so gorgeous, unique, and is perfect for charcuterie, no regrets (my mom got one too)

As an actual fine artist myself, I greatly appreciate this message! Thank you! 🥰

[@carolineharnish5633]

Yes! Thank you for saying " Original art" & " Invest in good art" as I'm an artist, too...

Ah silver. I inherited silver trays from my mom that are very special to me as is the 1930s art deco silver plate luncheon flatware set my great aunt gave me for my first apartment. To match up with them my china pattern is Lenox Lace Point which has a platinum rim. It's a dainty 1970s pattern with a grey and peach floral design... I bought my first place setting in 1974 while working for Marshall Field and Co. in the Walnut Room. I still love and use everything 50 years later.

Kasa Smart lightbulbs!! They’re really reasonably priced and you can dim your lights from your phone. It’s so easy and such a game changer!!

Hey Lage I love your vídeos and i find your inspiration photos amazing. It would be lovely if in every vídeo you could compile them into a document and put them on the description

[@lilliangordon1087]

Paige, I think we’d all love a video of about coffee table books for cool people. I screenshot the ones you showed in this video and I know you must have more up your sleeve!

[@wasselpa]

I linked some stores in the description!

A big silver bowl filled with garlic is a handy thing to keep by the front door.

My parents had that ficus too. For like 30 years. It just kept plugging along!

I love coffee table books they are the best decor ✨ also you mentioned the silver, my parents had a small tea set growing up and I can confirm the stuff they gave me to polish it smelled nasty my fingers hurt and smelled when I was done 🤢 haha but my dad would buy me my ice cream of choice after I was done so my 9 year old self thought: "worth it" lol would do it again tbh and I'm 29 now 😝

[@clarasalinassanchez3705]

I love books in general, and is something I always like to buy when I travel. And I like to decorate with books also. I like second hand books.

Loved this topic :D

[@tabithaaa6176]

you'll never regret buying that tree... unless you kill it. lol

[@HollyPettingFarm]

I truly feel like I have passed some kind of home design test. I actually have everything you mentioned in my home except the "silver". I am doing better than I thought. Maybe I will go out and look for something silver in the antique shops. Thanks!

Your parents got great taste, can't wait for the tour.

[@colleenlouise4521]

I love cast iron. silver I see in every yard sale, flea market, estate sale

[@KurtesolWafelosi]

I totally agree with the frame thing! We don't have a lot of money, so Custom is out of the question. if I get Art I still buy a ikea frame so I can put it up immediately! because thrifting the right frame for a piece can take a while and I don't want to wait until I can look at my favorite new thing. so I'll just change the frame later when I find the right one. Like you said in the other video interior design can be a longer term project ^^

[@gloriaalex11]

I paint my old frames when I want to change decor or re-use them in a different room.

[@aisling8308]

I had the Ikea mirror and left it behind in my old apartment when I moved. I still miss it to this day

[@bernadettealbouras8431]

Love your recommendations I do have a chunky cutting board hidden from William Sonoma I think you're so right

[@NinjaCakkey]

So helpful.

[@MfB74]
