Welcome to the channel, I'm Garrett! I am formally educated with a degree in interior design. My husband and I are also real estate investors. Our videos cover many styles (not just my own), and everything from ultra luxury to the budget friendly design. We want you to have a good time watching our videos while learning a great deal of useful, and practical information.

What I love about you is that you don’t tell people to follow these trends and that they have to have it. In all your videos you emphasise to only do it if you like it yourself and it goes with your style. It is so important, I see so many people follow these trends religiously and then months later they end up changing it and selling items that they have only just bought!

[@GarrettLeChic]

Thanks Harriett, and thank you for supporting our channel by subscribing, and watching!

[@cjmac2766]

Hi again, Garrett! I redid my kitchen a couple of years ago. I'm disabled, so all my lower cabinets are drawers. My pantry has pull out shelves, and other small accommodations were made as part of the design. I'd love to see you do a video on universal design and designing our forever homes for aging in place! Thank you!!!

[@GarrettLeChic]

I will give that some thought. Thank you. Happy Holidays to you and your family!

[@cjmac2766]

@@GarrettLeChic thank you so much! I'm sure many people would appreciate learning how things can be beautiful, even if they are designed to be more functional. You are my favorite design channel, Garrett! Keep up the wonderful work you do! 🌻💛🌻

[@laurat4977]

Agreed! My husband and I are now in our mid-60s and when we renovate the next time, it will be last time. These will be some very important decisions!

[@Jho_Sephine]

Oh i would LOVE this! We're renovating ourhouse and next year, we begin planning the kitchen.

[@valerieo1483]

I agree! I’m 60 and live in a home that is seriously dated! The kitchen, living room, bedrooms, basement room and laundry room need a total rehaul. It hasn’t been done since the 90’s and 70’s. Paneling in the living room and foyer is an eye sore and trying to convince the man in the house that needs to be painted, is a long battle for me. I’d like to paint it a nice cream white with crown moulding-is that even a thing anymore, crown moulding?

[@TRoxanne55]

I don’t like the glass partition because I don’t want to be cleaning it all the time. I do love the SW color of the year. Green is my fav color. I keep things very neutral, but I would love a little color. 😀

[@jeanvignes]

I'm currently very fond of citron ("Citron is a dark lemon color similar to that of the fruit citron.") Sometimes it has a green cast. I'm trying to figure out how to incorporate just a LITTLE of it in my rental's kitchen.

[@laurat4977]

I don't have words for how much I love that color! It's fantastic. I want it everywhere. :)

[@CH-vm6cq]

You wouldn't be cleaning it much unless people are touching it

[@TRoxanne55]

@@CH-vm6cq but it does get dusty and yucky overtime

[@stormwright8300]

I still fully prefer french doors myself. Glass seems like it will get extra gross and dusty and fingerprinted. I'd probably also be too afraid of breakage, even if it was sturdy

[@sagisli]

If you're considering remodeling your kitchen, stay away from trends. Stick to a classic or traditional materials and apply trendy features that can be easily changed (lighting, paint and accessories). No matter your budget, a kitchen renovation is a huge expense and not something you want to do over and over. Pick things that you'll still love 10 or twenty years later. Oh, and stay away from the dark kitchens, it's going to be a deal breaker if you want to sell your home.

[@diana6842]

Good advice. Ten years ago, I painted my dark kitchen cabinets a creamy white, and then had black granite installed for the countertops. It still looks classic and beautiful, and I have no regrets.

[@BoeBreezy]

I love all these trends, but I wouldn't want to clean the glass partition. My favorite trend is the wood kitchen. We chose wood cabinets for our kitchen renovation. I really enjoy seeing the traditional design incorporated in the new and upcoming trends.

[@GarrettLeChic]

Thanks for sharing!!

[@aebelskiveroregon3324]

Good information here. We just finished our new home, and put glass doors on the upper upper cabinets with lighting. I can add any color accent I want in those cabinets with colored glassware and swap them out when I want. Currently have red glassware for Christmas. White cabinets on the perimeter, wood island makes it easy to do.

[@GarrettLeChic]

Sounds great, I like it! Thanks so much for your comment, and supporting us by subscribing. Happy Holidays!

[@janinehoare2266]

I love the ‘pop’ of colour;especially the blue you featured, but I am a blue lover, too! Sooo sick of monochromatic kitchens! Love the fold away version of the butler’s pantry too-great way to create storage especially in smaller spaces

[@GarrettLeChic]

Me too!! Thanks for watching, and supporting our channel by subscribing. We appreciate it.

[@magenta4443]

I love pops of color, mostly deep or bright. My current kitchen is painted BM Spring Moss. I don't care for Brutalism or all wood. Great examples, Garrett!

[@GarrettLeChic]

Thanks for sharing!!

[@pattycaby1230]

Love the look of the window walls, just thinking of how hard it could be to keep the glass clean.

[@zenlifetv4837]

My favorite design of this series is the neutral tones with a pop of color.

[@tildenchild2360]

All I want in my kitchen is a Wolf stove ,Wolf microwave, Subzero refrigerator and Brazilian mahogany flooring. .😃 Speaking of trends, will we ever have the eat in kitchen dining table again instead of the islands?The glass panels will require too much windexing..Your content is always unmatched and informative..🤓

[@GarrettLeChic]

Thanks so much Debra! I love Brazilian mahogany. I do see the eat in kitchen returning. I think it gives a very warm and cozy feeling. I definitely like a formal dining room when you entertain or for holidays and special events. I prefer a separate eating area for everyday use. If a house has just one eating area I’m somewhat turned off and I know a lot of my friends are too. It’s usually a deal breaker for a purchase. 😀😀😀

[@leafygreensla]

Wise words and some great observations!

[@GarrettLeChic]

Thanks so much Laurel! I really appreciate your comment.

[@lindahandley5267]

I never liked the idea of cooking in my living room!

[@jeanvignes]

My landlord put a rustic, unfinished, wooden cabinet positioned to hold the sink and next to the toilet. Is there anything more horrifying than an absorbent surface you can never clean? In a bathroom? YIKES. It's a sponge for mystery stains.

[@erikabraga100]

Thanks for sharing

[@annesandstrommusic7538]

If you’re thinking soapstone, you should be aware of the upkeep. Around the sink, it can be challenging. Compare with black honed granite and black leathered granite. I love my soapstone, but it’s not for everyone.

[@ophilianecr]

I just had my condo kitchen redone last month and the black leathered countertop was Sooooo awesome. It would have been a great fit for my charcoal, grey and teal, modern style, but the maintenance and the thickness of the slab was not what I was looking for. I opted for a sleek, thin black/ glimmering quartz countertop called "starry night" instead. But the leathered finish is still something I think about.

[@RosemarieSKikel]

Love the dark kitchen cabinets......considered them when I was remodeling. I didn't have the guts to do it because of resale. I went with a white kitchen instead. Dark kitchens with gold hardware....look like a jewel box to me!

[@wonderland1911]

I did my kitchen full black with gold handles and a white marble countertop! It feels so modern and classy😊

[@nickys6656]

Thoughts on the concealed kitchen: Me: Oh, I love that everything is hidden, clutter free, and clean, Yasss! Also Me: What room am I in, I need a snack 🤷🏾‍♀️?

[@anitas5817]

Re: colors of the year - I love green so much and I’m so glad to see it coming back. I have been completely unable to find green anything for years!!

[@cloverazar5315]

I’m so excited for the concrete+wood trend. I chose finishings for my home in 2020 having no idea that I’d be on-trend in 2022, but there you go! Thanks for a wonderful video, and give a scratch to Linus for us! :)

[@cs4849]

I like the wood trend the best - I love natural materials. Cement/brutalism not so much. I find that too institutional and depressing.

[@catemahoney281]

I really love the darker kitchens. That's what I left a year ago, and I do miss it. My cabinets were a rich cherry, walls a mid-tone sage, and burgundy trim. My own renovation design, and I loved it. The kitchen I have now is pretty, but I'm not as in love with the white cabinets. Still working through evolving it into something more me, but I have some serious budget constraints for now. I didn't really care for the hidden kitchens. I can see where they would make sense based on your commentary. But they come across as very cold to me, so I couldn't live with it. Excellent video, as always. Thanks for the Linus fix!

[@GarrettLeChic]

Thanks so much Cate! I’m glad you enjoyed the video.🐶🐶🐶

[@SilentReader2]

I love dark kitchen cabinets as well. I never liked the white cabinet trend. Dark cabinets seem so classic to me, along with a light granite countertop. Beautiful!

[@timi707_1]

I like the wood kitchen, looks nicer than paint to me. Not sure how I feel about the glass dividers, but I like that its different and innovative. Also I like minimalism but not sure about brutalist. Theres this brutalist style giant apartment building in my city and it fills me with depression whenever I walk past it, it literally looks like chernobyl or something

[@GarrettLeChic]

Thanks for watching, and for supporting our channel by subscribing.:)

[@stormwright8300]

Brutalist reminds me of Fortress Architecture. Very inward and cold and a little cruel. I love dark colors and dark woods myself, but that's a bit too utilitarian for me

[@emmaaclaaire]

Love the all wood kitchen cabinets in a mid tone. I don’t think I’ll ever like the distressed wood look, too farm housey for me!

[@tishratcliff9601]

I really love the moody kitchens. I’ve already dipped my toes into the darker tones, and now I think I’m just going to dive completely in. I love the feeling of sophistication and elegance I get from the moody colors.

[@GarrettLeChic]

😀😀😀

[@justjacqueline2004]

This young gentleman really knows what he is talking about, a true guru of design. His analysis is laser like and precise he knows the cost of renovation is horrific and wants the payback to be timeless and long lasting. I fear the glass walls will turn into a nightmare on cleaning and the textured surfaces will be a petri dish of delight all those tiles and grout will age like my hairstyle very quickly. Trying to balance a bright airy kitchen with the need to robust and eye candy is almost impossible for mere humans, Garrett has got this accomplished. Dark kitchens for Northern Europe is a recipe for depression and grunge lurking in every crevice, so not quite my thing. More of these analytical tools please.

[@jendyson6729]

I just had my kitchen cabinets painted in Benjamin Moore's Water's Edge and am having butcher block counter tops installed probably stained in a walnut (haven't decided) I love my 'new' blue kitchen! I feel like a stylish grandma. Love your videos !

[@GarrettLeChic]

Sounds great! Thanks so much Jen for watching and supporting us by subscribing. We appreciate it! :)

[@racheltaylor73]

Love the video but a concealed kitchen is not for someone who cooks. Not utilitarian at all.

[@Marsydotes]

My last house had a larder cabinet. I loved it! My kitchen now doesn’t have the space for one and I miss it. It was my baking station and I found it to be so functional.

[@amyweaver7413]

I love the very modern look of a warm wood and concrete mix - but I admire it from afar as my core design aesthetic is traditional. But I still enjoy and admire other styles.

[@yvsha93]

I love those kitchen trends specially the one with concrete and wood. I love the concrete look. I just remodeled this summer and I did concrete floors all over the formal living and dining area all the way to hallways and white walls cause I don’t have lot of natural light in my house so that made it look perfect so I think the flow of concrete in my kitchen would be perfect. Colors are not my thing cause I get board too quickly. By the way I love your dog you should include it in your videos more often.

[@GarrettLeChic]

Sounds great!

[@rubyoro0]

Ceza, is concrete smooth?

[@yvsha93]

@@rubyoro0 yes it is smooth it’s different than the outdoor concrete

[@cloverazar5315]

@@rubyoro0 it can be! There’s also quartz stone - Ceasarstone is the brand I’ve used - that does cement-look quartz. It’s pretty durable and looks legit!

[@basilrose]

All these trends are awful. Kitchens are workspaces not showrooms. Talk to me about food prep not 'dark and moody experiences'.

[@GarrettLeChic]

I understand. However, I’m not an expert on cooking so I can’t advise about food prep. Also, I am not telling people these are must have trends. It’s a discussion. Some people like them and some don’t, and that’s great. Also, just because I discuss a trend it doesn’t mean I necessarily love it. I don’t push any trends or styles including my own style on this channel. 😊😊😊

[@jenniewren9351]

I love the completely hidden kitchen. I’d love an Edwardian (in UK - possibly known as Queen Anne in USA??? - please correct me) home. My cousin asked me, just this week, how old my kitchen was as she said it still looks great. We chose pale grey units (as they’d never really been in fashion - until recent years - so figured they’d not date so badly). Our kitchen is now about 20 years old and we’re still happy with it. So as you say choose what you love and choose wisely, not just blindly following fads or fashions - great if you can afford it, but for those that can’t or don’t want to (environmentally a lot of resources go into a new kitchen).

[@lindseycartes8756]

Where's the photo?! 😘

[@ramose83]

I simply don't like the huge L-Form Sofas ... they need plenty of space ... and therefore rarely they look classy in our limited spaces in Germany ... I might be mistaken though

[@oliviagraves5327]

Please do a video on grand millennial! It’s so satisfying hearing you put little things I’ve noticed into words and really break them down. I think I’m into it and it would be awesome to get a guide from you ❤️ I’ve been calling grand millennial, grandma revival in passing with my mama lol

[@GarrettLeChic]

Great suggestion!

[@noneofyourbusines1476]

SOOOO glad to see darker colors...and especially wood! Maybe it will finally put the unimaginative, boring, "clone" white shaker out to pasture. That, and obviously fake "marble" quartz need to GO!

[@charlottabrower7968]

I renovated my kitchen in 2021 but chose warm red birch cabinetry with cool navy Cambria quartz counters. Little did I know I was ahead of the trends.

[@elizabethstump4077]

I've been wanting a cobalt blue and bright yellow and white French Provincial kitchen for 20+ years. I finally have a house where I can remodel my kitchen and will finally get my kitchen next year (I hope). Cobalt blue cabinets, butcher block and quartz countertops. And I love the larder idea, since I have always had what I call a "baking cabinet" where I keep my baking staples, and would be nice to store my cobalt blue Kitchenaid Mixer (that I've had for 25 years) and my Cuisinart where I can bake.

[@catherineabreu31]

I literally want to redo my whole kitchen! 😮‍💨 I’m obsessed with the wood look, love love this video. 🤎

[@blondienhouston4825]

Still like can light in ceiling with a feature chandelier over the island! No open shelves! Like painted base & wall cabinets with island as a feature with wood!

[@erinsedmak2612]

I just designed our new kitchen and did use wood (albeit only on uppers and in butler’s pantry) but also, contrasted warm and cool tones. I had no idea it was a 2022 trend.

[@GarrettLeChic]

That is awesome! Thanks for watching and subscribing Erin. We appreciate it. :)

[@l.t.r.p.8475]

I personally think the "Black" trend that is happening in kitchen is going to date quickly. It's too dark for a kitchen. While they can work in bathrooms, I donr think they are very good in kitchens, where you want it to be nice and light while you cook.

[@AP-gz6nq]

I have beautiful maple cabinets and have been struggling to determine whether or not to paint them. We’re installing new wood flooring so I’ve been worried it would be too many different wood tones, but now I think I’m just going to embrace it. Thanks for the vote of confidence!

[@BiteandChiu]

*Great advice G. LeChic!* I'm in the midst of a kitchen remodel and I'm just at the dry wall stage. I LOVE the look of the moody kitchen but I am concerned about the amount of natural light I receive. I decided to go with the full wood kitchen. Warm medium toned red oak cabinets with contrasting white oak floors. Great point on the cleaning maintenance of the lighting, I'm in the search for the perfect balance of timeless style, functionality and easy maintenance for pendant lights. Hoping everything all comes together beautifully so I can start filming in my kitchen again.

[@ericagreen4015]

I like the partitions ideas. It’s not a new concept. I remember just about every tv show in the 90’s was set in NYC and had them lol. I’m not too keen on wood but the pops of color are fun as well as the pantry. I’m looking at buying a townhome for myself and most don’t come with a pantry so I really like the extra storage options.

As much as I hate to say it......and believe me I live in a Condo with lots of oak trim and cabinets- eventually this will all fall out of "style" and have to be ripped out. I'm working on reducing the oak in my place one room at a time, it was built in the early 00's. Thank goodness for cabinet/trim paint, gel stain, and my wife's love for primative/farmhouse decor (we live in the midwest). Fun video......not so sure how I feel about those backsplashes, they are a pain in the ass to put in/take out. I personally like shiplap myself. Our last place I took palletboards and made a feature wall in our kitchen....looked spectacular.

In hate open-plan kitchen/diner/living room. What an awful notion. Whoever thought of it, obviously never cooked. It should be completely obvious that all smells and grease, etc from the kitchen are going to spread into other areas (and your sofa, curtains, carpet…nightmare!) that are not separated from the kitchen. I can’t believe it took so long for someone to come up with a divider. I mean… professional restaurant kitchens have had glass windows for the last two decades. It really isn’t that hard to figure it out. Btw, I loved your review. Very cool. Subcribed immediately .

When is the farmhouse trend going to die? All places that sell accessories are nuts for farmhouse. There are other styles, but they seem not to care. It is hard to find things in other styles. I guess I wouldn't mind so much in the Gaines-esque style wasn't everywhere. It doesn't leave room for anything else.

[@bricksloth6920]

I do not think an all rustic wood kitchen is great. But that's me. I like modern, clean surfaces.

[@FM-dk1vp]

DIY kitchen remodeling as-we-speak. Upper oak cabinets a soft powder blue-grayish color and creamy white on the base cabinets. Natural maple butcher-block countertops combined with a naturally beautiful and darker live-edge wood top (all glaze coated) for the island (blue slate paint color). Finished with creamy beige walls, white hexagon tile backsplash and mood white (soft concrete look)12”x24” floor tile. The island (with lower seating on one side) is made up of base cabinets from a hexagonal (half wall bar-type) divider tear-out. Out with the old (chocolate brown, cream, green, and sun dried tomato) and in with the new (and final). Now back to work.

[@sh8kit]

Not a fan of the whole wood kitchens, reminds me too much of the 70’s now outdated kitchens

Garrett, my 2017 small home was built with an island and granite. It’s an open area with living area, kitchen, and dining. With the island however, I rally can’t get a dining table for six in it. …my husband is a contractor…would it be wrong to take out the island completely and then replace a counter height table and chairs. Should the table have granite on top?

[@lindamaroukis4586]

I love those glass portions, they look very chic and they give space between the rest of the house. I really dislike homes that are one large room flowing into each other, I think it's unwelcoming

I have a north facing kitchen with one window in a small galley style. I'm thinking about painting bottom cabinets a different color than top ones. Thinking of a cream type of white for top and some kind of pale soft green on bottom cabinets. My counter tops on one side are butcher block and around sink need replacing. Any affordable suggestions?

[@GarrettLeChic]

Thanks for your comment. I don't give my opinion on specific interior decorating questions unless I can see the space, decor, furniture and really know what is trying to be achieved. It's very visual. So, I might be offering a virtual service on a limited basis for individual decorating consultations later this year.

Can we get rid of the breakfast nooks and the in-kitchen dining stools???!? The kitchen is for cooking! * Although… a soft seating area with a coffee table does sounds great for the cook ;) Glass partitions! Yes! Very Gosford Park. I love it! Because we’re 6 and we actually cook and eat at home, I hate open floor plans with a passion. I’m actually putting up curtains today. From the ceiling to the counters, to close off our open kitchen (we rent). We’re lucky to actually have a dining area that also fits a sideboard making it look formal. The dining area is separated from the living room by a half wall. Thankfully not close to the kitchen. 😁

[@victorialine5984]

Combine the 'concealed' kitchen with walls and you have the perfect space. Bored to tears with one floor living and Shaker-style cabinetry. It's also time to ditch granite or marble worktops and STOP putting the microwave over the cooktop.

Hey! I just subscribed! ☺️ What do you think about the open shelving trend?

[@GarrettLeChic]

Welcome to the channel Jennie! It’s great to have you as part of our very valued subscriber family. I’m not a big fan. I like more timeless, classic designs with cabinetry going to the ceiling. These trends tend to date themselves relatively quickly especially with open shelving not being very practical for those who cook regularly and cleaning is a big issue. I don’t feel it gives the most elevated look to a kitchen. 😊😊😊

[@mikki3961]

My kitchen cabinets are white , however, I painted the walls brick red. It looks fabulous. Color in a kitchen is invigorating! I love it. I don't like texture in a kitchen as you stated, it is a space that must be kept immaculate. Texture is a horror (shudder)

Great video, thank you! Open space will always be my fav, with no partition unless it's the B-room or the bedroom! And, for me, I'll leave the rustic-faux kitchen to a Hollywood version of what they think my mountain relatives have!

I love your applicable and practical advice ❤ and your precious dogs!

Thank you, Garrett, for letting us know what's on the cutting edge of kitchen design! I love the idea of using different types of lighting in the kitchen, and cheers for the concealed kitchen to preserve historical or architectural features of beautiful homes!

You are so welcome!

I went with nice bright paint colors but when it came to tile I went with the plain old White subway tile. The really colorful tiles were too expensive. And when I thought about the cost of changing it out if I didn't like it the subway tile looked better by the second.

for my space, about the only 2 "trends" that would work in my kitchen are the pantry/larder, and the hidden kitchen. My hubby wants to make our small, galley kitchen have a monolithic look with frameless, no handles drawers in our cabinets. With some space for a pantry :) We are in a condo, so space is limited, and there is NO natural light coming into the kitchen

We will be remodeling our kitchen in the next 6 months or so and this video was very helpful. I love the idea of using the pop of my favorite color but in a dustier tone. I had included pantry cabinets in my inspiration design but love the idea it f storage shelves on the doors and the European larder look and functionality. I know that two toned kitchens are “out” but an all wood kitchen would be too much with our bamboo floors so I’m contemplating off white cabinets with a wood island and a pop of color in the pantry area but afraid that might be too “color block-y.” Decisions, decisions!

[@Intuition_malnutrition]

Omg I hate the glass panels!

[@lisagenerette2443]

I hit several marks on my current kitchen remodel: soapstone counter top (it's its actually leather granite but the "color" is is "soapstone." Wall-to-wall solid hardwood Pendant, recessed, above & below counter lighting Dark color

[@GarrettLeChic]

Yay! I'm glad you enjoyed the video!

[@cathrynmurray6581]

I am thinking of mixing a Black granite island top ( which I had) with quartz white with grey veins on it for the cabinet top on the surrounding cabinet- sink to oven to refrigerator area. Then painting the island bottom with a dark blue or black. Then the rest of the cabinets white. Is this crazy? I do have lots of natural light in the kitchen area

[@AmbientAuteur]

Haha! So agree wid him on most thoughts this guy gives.

OMG ! Dear Mr Garrett, I'm sorry I haven't been able to write as much but have actually been having problems with my design. I'm building a big house and with the coppiced ceilings, frosted glass super tall doors throughout, wainscoting in my bedroom, and all suggestions already up to 1 million. That's without the kitchen laundry and bathrooms 😲 😱 😲. Anyway things are getting better now I've got about 1.1 as a budget and my kitchen butlers pantry came in at 88k and that's over what the builder allows which is only 14 k so OMG a 102k kitchen. A DISASTER. SENSATIONAL but a disaster... Anyway yesterday went and ordered the kitchen again I ended up not compromising the design but materials....Marble has wear staining water ring spaghetti sauce red wine problems and we are a farm family with a diesel mechanic son). We presently have granite. So to show you I have been well and truly captivated with your advice and design tips:- All from you Garrett !!!!!! Flush kickboards, cupboards to ceiling, no door profile for ease of cleaning, subtle grey veins with carrarra marble (but now FAUX) for benchtops and splashbacks. ALL Drawers below in design( pretty much) Lehman corner system Two tone kitchen - off white warm grey upper cupboards / warm light grey (both colours same as faux marble base colour and vein). Warm 🪵 wood flooring Feature big head with old fashioned telephone cord looking main taps. My polyurethane doors swapped out for an almost identical laminate which has thermal formed edges. Crystal and chrome handles imported from America (I'm supplying them). The Cooktop has had to be moved to the island due to faux marble backsplash but I found a chandelier pendant rangehood Elica Interstellar. So now while it won't be cheap it won't swallow my budget in one big greedy gulp!!!! All same in Butlers pantry as main kitchen

[@GarrettLeChic]

Sounds amazing! I’m so happy to see you happy with your home. 😁😁😁

[@juliemorvern7204]

You gave me the confidence to decorate it all myself

[@GarrettLeChic]

@@juliemorvern7204 I’m just so glad you are happy with your space because at the end of day that’s what matters and what I want people to know is important.

[@virginiacharlotte7007]

Hilarious thumb nail, Garrett! Although, I must say that it did remind me a little of Squidward from SpongeBob SquarePants!

[@alittlebitofthisandthatwit3143]

Hello 👋 these trends are really different and I’m loving it! I love the the color tiles, but I can’t commit so it’s white subway tiles for me. I have Maple cabinets and I painted my island a mint green that’s my pop of color and I love it. As always love your video!

[@GarrettLeChic]

Thanks so much!😀😀😀

[@makeitinny]

ANOTHER SUPER FAB VIDEO!!! You are an absolute pleasure to watch, full of knowledge and you have such a nice diction. It's like 28 going on 80. HA!! Congratulations Darling, you made it into my Top 5 favorite Old Souls to watch on YT and IK some seriously old Souls both on and off of social. You ALWAYS remind me of Halston. IK it may sound far out yet...

[@Deborah1056]

The glass partition looks gorgeous, but, for me, it would get tiresome after a while. The smudges, not being able to hear what is going on even if I can see, and the limitations of it. I don't know! I'm building a house in the spring and believe me I'm overwhelmed with all the decisions and choices. Gah!!

[@bethheerten1132]

I have enough things to clean in the kitchen without adding glass partitions that would need to be cleaned every day - on both sides.
