  • I used to hate photo's and now that I am older, I love seeing pictures of family all over the place. It's really comforting. Love your vids! You have mad skillz.
  • @sazennonumber
    I very much appreciate that you have somewhat loose recommendations. I'm not into people who have strict rules, which if you don't follow, you will be totally wrong and it's all going to be horrible. Really, some spaces do not offer too much choice when it comes to the placement of furniture. Lighting is huge for me in creating a home-sweet-home feel. And yes, scale can make or brake a space (don't ask how I know this). Thank you for uploading this relaxing video! And good luck with the projects you are working on right now.
  • @AllThingsSoul
    Some of the best all-inclusive tips I've seen! The one I often forget is connectivity and flow with adjacent areas. You also speak in a very relaxed, calming voice without excessive hand gestures, excessive loud-talking, over exaggerating, or excessive laughing. So refreshing! I also like when you passively state what you don't like, but give the tip for those who might like it. I usually agree with your dislikes! Great content!

    I'm with you to find a classy, streamlined recliner--and they are almost impossible to find. It's always the large round puffy recliners that grandma and grandpa sits in that you can find everywhere. The only place I have found beautiful, modern recliners is Room and Board but they are very expensive, imo.
  • @lulyb
    This video was so helpful Jorge. Thank you. You’re so freakin talented!
  • @annlatham
    So many good inspirational photos and ideas! ❤ Awesome tips on placement and thank you for sourcing the photos as well so that o can look into further details. You are amazing!! ❤
  • @Laurad419
    Thanks for including so many terrific photo examples in this video, I enjoyed that so much 👏🏼
  • If I had to choose, I’d say #2, however, I loved them all. I never would have thought that, because none of those are really my style, however, after you putting them together, I’d put any of them in my house. lol
  • @vickyb9918
    Good video. Miss seeing more of your videos. It seems like you used to do them more often.
  • @juliem.3936
    I liked this video! Usually you post DIY videos, so this was different and nice.
  • @marianhreads
    How timely, I am furnishing my living room right now! Great tips here.
  • @kmonnier
    I just made my own concrete birdbaths, your videos helped so much!
  • @mberry6830
    Love the video, you always give great content. My only minor critique is when you inserted a picture, I didn’t know if you were saying it was an example of what to do or what not to do. All the pictures you showed were beautiful, at least in my eyes, so I was confused. I was looking for the what not to do pics. Anyway, great video as always!
  • @alicenieto3162
    OMG I’m with you on vanilla scent. I absolutely can’t stand it in anything. Makes me gag.
  • @DebraLunnen-vo2ww
