[@mariamangion21]

Happy Sunday ❤️

[@julie-l3p]

Our bathrooms need to be remodeled, Don’t know where to begin 😊

[@jtarasyuk]

Hi Kristen! Love your style! Could you please share what color is your walls?

[@rosepearlcourt]

thank you you’re such a gem💜

[@inderpreetbhandal7458]

Hi , do you help if I need help designing my new home. How could I contact you?

[@LalalalalaLauren75]

My current decoration style is “Can my kids break this?” Chic

[@amandaelynch1]

same but for my partner.... he breaks/ruins so many things (accidentally) lol

[@imageisn0thing]

😂😂😂

[@BB-re8mw]

Brilliant!

[@BB-re8mw]

....and the answer 'Yes. Yes they can ...and they will."

[@betaaquarii9155]

😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@leadimentoobrien1221]

I really LOVE how u use split screen and show examples of what u r talking about.

[@fatimaj7508]

Absolutely genius way to present information AND stop the viewer from zoning out during the video. It doesn’t become overwhelming.

[@Mitch-Alex]

The furniture legs / no legs is a good point!!

[@leadimentoobrien1221]

Yes it was

[@sarsurab2778]

Nah the way kristen is coming out with all my favourite videos back to back i cant take it!!! ❤❤❤❤ Girl we actually love you! You have high key aided us all to make beautiful homes!

[@JLKensinger]

Adding this to my favorites! Finally a styling video with actual tips and not all about rug size!

[@BB-re8mw]

Hahahaha rug size = okay we get it!

[@sherryidibo2304]

Your ideas and hacks are always on point, when you love what you do you will be great at it❤

[@mrspatriciasteele]

The legs/no legs furniture tip is helpful! Thank you❤

[@juliemarkham4332]

The recessed light idea is pretty neat. Glad the lighting industry gives the option. 💡

[@leadimentoobrien1221]

Agreed

[@philipppiier17]

Absolutely love her style and taste?!!🎉🎉🎉

[@GEMMAVEGAMILLARET]

Very useful video. I like the idea to combine furniture with legs and without.

[@jandaermold3406]

Very helpful hints for decorating. Would love to hear more that subject. Especially color palettes and also size of products vs space.

[@j.christian6801]

Love the ideas on the coffee table.

[@robinbirdj743]

My pet peeve though is a complexly styled coffee table. Where does one set down a mug? Make sure to leave room. And provide coasters.

[@lexig3503]

Yes!! I have the Lutron kits- I absolutely love controlling all our lights from my phone- game changer

[@leaneoreilly9359]

Thanks Kristin! Would love more info on how best to choose colour's for the home that complement each other. 💞

[@michellem434]

Omgoodness I need the pendant light kit!!

[@AcHeLLa7]

This is the most useful video with the simplest solutions to problems I've seen about decoration.

[@reneweiler8929]

You always give the best advice…thank you

[@JaniceLynch-hj5sz]

Awesome! this vid offered practical advice that anyone can use to enhance their home's interior design. I appreciated how the tips were applicable to different styles and budgets, making them accessible to everyone. It's a great resource for anyone looking to improve their home decor.

[@j-ru5527]

[@cindylux333]

Thank you the light converter will be a great help in my home!!

[@kimmiel6825]

I love these short, to the point, inexpensive ideas on how we can make our homes more appealing and enjoyable! Thank you!

[@jesss7930]

Wall hooks are great for hanging spare towels, but completely useless for drying used towels.

[@gaildela5710]

Agree!!

[@BB-re8mw]

Thank you for the 'art' on KZbin. FINALLY! Was wondering when someone real would touch on this idea.

[@momoy2989]

I like the 5 colors idea

[@za3315]

So much great info 😃 Ordered the fluted window sheets. I didn’t realize there was such a thing. I have towel hooks in my bathroom, but the bath towels don’t dry. Love the hooks but that is definitely a downside.

[@jennifern6480]

Where did you get them? I don't see a link.

[@Meg539]

Thank you for guiding us on how to make our homes look amazingly beautiful and to be functional. I wait for your videos ❤

[@RafaMelton-r9m]

Stylish and tasteful

[@suziealthens1258]

I love how you decorate! Thank you for sharing these tips.

[@Barcellofabio]

Finally 🙌 how to style a coffee table. I’ve been really struggling with this.

[@CrystalPowell-vs2bh]

This was eye-opening! The colors, textures and lighting to create a cozy and stylish space.

[@sorayabejar7108]

Great tips, Kristen. Thanks for sharing. Love your channel.❤

[@rosi9944]

Kristen Thank you for sharing all these tips to create a modern beautiful home! I’m planning to implement the fluted cover for my bathroom windows. 😉

[@KristenMcGowan]

Amazing!!

[@judy3769]

I have my towels on hooks and they seem to dry faster. I really like this idea.😅

[@lisamelo5411]

You are the BEST!

[@noops2110]

I don't know but I feel like the coffee tables in the pics have no space to put my coffee mug after all that decor! Is it just me? In India, we also use those tables to offer day time snacks to guests. We need space on those tables...

[@marvelous1016]

Hmm 9mins of straight VALUEEE!! this is so helpful thank you!! 💚🌻

[@grisespino5342]

Loved all the tips. Mood lighting, privacy film that still allows light in, towels on hooks, and furniture with a mix of feet and without. Thanks!

[@annecarter5181]

With all the decor on the coffee table, where can you put your coffee cup & snack??!!

[@nancyeubanks6357]

Ok, my mind is blown! I had no idea that screw in pendants lights were available. I have been thinking of getting rid of my pot/basket rack and converting the pot lights above to pendants. This is the answer! Lots of fabulous ideas in addition. Thanks!!

[@josephforsuh6929]

Really, really, really good!!

[@oliviarjones]

Great ideas & tips! I need this lamp dimmer…

[@Lala-gn4pj]

Utterly amazing video, wow

[@teresalledo4987]

I love your channel. I learn a lot of things.

[@snorlund1]

I find splitting my rectangular coffee table in 3 sections works well. 😊

[@JesusMong]

TY Kristen! It shared insider secrets that made decorating home so much easier.

[@karenrobertson8954]

I love your style. I’d have to get rid of all my stuff and start over from scratch!!

[@tracimorgan3695]

Thanks Kristen you always have great advise, and I love you style!

[@drsedehi2]

Very helpful video, thank you Kristen!! ♥

[@leadimentoobrien1221]

I like the ribbon u added to ur lamp.

[@slynnrey9711]

Awesome tricks thank you

[@Lornawhitney]

Hi Kristin please could you do a video on vignette’s and how they fit into a room. How many is too many? Repeating pattern of using the same objects/vases/stems when trying to style consoles and what to avoid when decorating a number of surfaces in just one room?

[@ninatang7015]

Will definitely check out the pendent convertible, just what i have been looking for. Something easy to do without drilling. 😊

[@wilhelmina8843]

light converter - i didn't even know thus existed. And different legs - great detail and something I've not heard before. But i bet you this is an answer sometimes when a room doesn't quite feel balanced or "right" Thanks!

[@lolarowell-adamson339]

You are amazing Kristen!!! I absolutely love the art on the tv!!! 😀😀. Thank you so very much for this video. All of your ideas are just fabulous, really enlightening!

[@greavesreay]

Yay! A new video!

[@user-ci5si8jz5h]

Great tips and video

[@marilainefontenot8220]

I needed help with my coffee table and you gave me several fabulous ideas. Your videos are informative and fun to watch. Thanks for more great ideas!!

[@karenspivey4103]

So many fantastic ideas Kristen. You have motivated me!!! Thank you.

[@user-px8ug4cw2d]

Great advice

[@PaulaSchiffelbein]

Hi Kristen!!! Love your tip about mixibg furniture with and without legs. I have a very narrow living room But i really love the big grounded sofa. Si now I’m going to choose a coffe table with legs to compensate 🤗.

[@jeanschnur5856]

You absolutely PACK so many great tips into your videos! Love your content and style!❤❤❤❤

[@encouragetravel6980]

❤ the art on your tv tip

[@vickiemax]

This is beautiful! In the coffee table styling segment, there is a pink cane tray - do you know where this is from? I love it so much!!!

[@louisejohnston4876]

Need a quick design trick to keep furniture arrangement in living room cozy when there are 3 windows on 3 of the 4 walls! Can I put furniture in front of the windows? Sideboard?

[@mamak2066]

One of my favorite videos you ( or anyone) has done! Loved the window film, all the good tips, dividing table when decorating , loved the photos, did so many screenshots! ❤️

[@63Lsp]

Perfect timing for the pendant converter kit idea! Just moved and have canned lights over the kitchen island. Thanks!💙

[@lylibu]

I was just looking for something to frost my glass cabinet!!❤❤

[@Isachaismith]

Love this video! Lots of useful and inspiring tips, even better, the tips aren't expensive!

[@meriawakened]

My favorite video yet.

[@jessicamonk7214]

Gems 💎 🔥🔥

[@biggertom1234]

Hi Kirsten , my partner and I both love your styling , so clever functional yet beautiful mix of eclectic home shopping and thrifting with modern practicalities. They all come together so seamlessly ca LP in on a budget friendly scale. Man Many thanks for such great lessons . Ruth. And Tom ❤❤🎉🎉

[@tlanc1283]

I like the small picture idea!

[@mariamangion21]

Appreciate you and what you do so much ❤

[@leadimentoobrien1221]

Me too!

[@CareersbyJenn]

I love the art tv hack...I don't have a new tv so need to do that when I get one, but what a great idea! Can you share how to hang curtains or decorate around baseboard heaters? We are considering buying an older home that has a hydronic water heating system and there are baseboard heaters everywhere...and I have no idea how to style/deal with these. Thank you!

[@a.scottiedog2093]

Thank you for all the great ideas I can use. I appreciate it very much! Have a wonderful Sunday Kristen. 💕

[@helenaandrews2567]

Wow! I really appreciate your ideas and tips! I love the pendants idea ❤Thank you!

[@SpacecadetAlina]

Good video. subscribed!

[@nataliyamcgregor2570]

Thank you so much! I love your style, you’ve helped me so much already! Keep doing what you’re doing! Blessings! ❤

[@lynneschannel7325]

Love your ideas. I just binge watched a lot of your videos. You have educated me SO much. You suggest using large art. Makes me curious why you don’t do that for your bedrooms. 🤔 😉 Thank you for being you.

[@missfizz2386]

Excellent tips Kristen!

[@lolasalesmoore236]

Love all the styling methods.. see you in the next one.

[@willsx2]

Great tips. The only one I don't think would work for me is the towel hooks. To me it just looks a bit messy like a line of towels being hung to dry.

[@BroEdwardC]

Fine Pro-video as always. Making it simple... Much thanks ♥

[@leadimentoobrien1221]

I should be out exercising but I'm hooked on ur videos.

[@KristenMcGowan]

Hahaha 🤣❤️

[@Ana-bu3hh]

You always have such useful and practical ideas.

[@melissarains1017]

Love the tips but towel hooks are a pass for me. I just find that towels don’t dry well and then I don’t have room to spread anything out if I have an item I’m trying to air dry quickly.

[@zinahaddow4784]

I appreciate your talent SO much

[@emmaturnerphotography3278]

A couple of brilliant tips thanks for sharing !

[@SCSC-qz7rr]

Great ideas! Thank you Kristen! I love your style that’s my style too. I didn’t know about the can lighting I’m going to have to try that 😉👍

[@cyndeewenzel6439]

Oh I love the can converter kit, say I have a question...will that work for a boob light? lol Thanks! Great video I plan on trying a few of these tips.

[@margui6224]

Thank you, Kristen for the video. Great advice.

[@choolmann]

Always very useful advices. Thanks. 😘 from 🇧🇪

[@singingnomad5099]

Amazing!!! So helpful for design challenged people. 😅

[@Chiren101]

Dammm gurl,….. I think I said YES to every tip in this video 😁🥰

[@kellyskitchenandhome1013]

Hi what do you think of blue and white ginger jars

[@heidibekker610]

Can I ask what white color is behind you while you chat about styles?? It's beautiful

[@RAZASHARP]

you're AWESOMEEE! i have a new condo ..so i'm binge watching your channel. thank you! 🖤❤️

[@leadimentoobrien1221]

Can u discuss the many ways to hang art? I heard there is a magnetic picture frame for hanging pictures. Not sure where I saw it. I neeeeed it!
