    I liked your tips. But as a previous person commented, if you have hard water forget the waterfall and especially the black faucet. Also, I use the little plastic bumpers or discs that normally cushion your cabinet doors on the bottom 2 corners of my hanging artwork and it helps to keep them level if you have doors or other events that cause your artwork to shift. The self closing fire door coming into my house from the garage is heavy and all of my hallway pictures were shifting everytime it closed. The bumpers truly help.

    Kiva, back in the day, we could not afford lux drapery. My mother used to make them, either out of discarded drapes, or yards and yards of clearance fabric. She could sew a straight line and that is all you need to know. So our drapery was custom made and looked very lux.
    Then came time to wash then, we could not afford dry cleaning, so we washed them in cold water with ammonia. We washed them but always hung them wet or damp. The pleats looked perfect. Hope this is of help to somebody, somewhere.

    Love it. Here is how I have been keeping my whites white: baking soda (a cup) in the washer drum and fill the fabric softener cup with white vinegar. It has worked for the last year. No fabric softener is used. I use dryer balls. If you don't know what dryer balls are (felted wool balls) you need to know. Lighting: make sure all the bulbs are the same kelvin and the same AGE. Bulbs change their color as this get older and if they were not all put in lamps at the same time, they are not going to look the same color.

    Thank you! Great video(: another quick easy and free tip is just to keep clutter to a minimum, and clean! Shut cupboards, close drawers, hang up coats. Clean spaces always look luxury to me. And you can establish symmetry even without the same exact object. I have one bedside table, then a small bookcase on the other . It helps balance the space while allowing me to use what I have

  • @Anni_Mau

    Floating the furniture also makes cleaning so much easier and if it's easier, because you don't have to move everything first, then you do it more frequently and much faster too. And a clean house is the most important and easiest way to make a home feel more luxurious :)

    Helpful tips! A couple of notes: If you live in an area with a lot of minerals in the water, the waterfall faucets start looking bad when they quickly build up lime deposits. Ask me how I know. Also, an alternative to bleach, which is fairly toxic, is Mrs. Stewart’s Bluing. You can get it at places like Target or a hardware store.

    • @lizcademy4809
      @lizcademy4809 3 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Bluing is a very pale dye, it doesn't remove the dingy color. Whites do look better, because we see pale blue as "cleaner" than pale yellow.
      There are a few non-bleach ways you can make whites white again. Not all work on all types of fabric.
      - Add vinegar to your washing machine's rinse cycle. Don't use fabric softener.
      - Soak in OxyClean, washing soda, borax, or even dishwasher detergent and hot water.
      - Spread washed and wet things out in the sun all day to dry.
      - Boil the items, maybe with a cleaning product, in lots of water.

      Vinegar will deal with limescale on your taps. Soak a rag well with vinegar and let it sit in the tap for a couple hrs or overnight and when it's time, a little light scrub and it's shiny and new. I live where there's hard water and just de-scaled the outside of my kettle with a vinegar rag.

    I've been toying with the idea of moving my love seat off the wall and closer to the arm of my sofa across the way to create a cozy new space -- and here you are telling us to "Float your furniture" lol😂.
    My apartment is small-- but I believe I can make that change work😄 And seeing that lovely throw across the back gave me even more incentive to implement it😀
    And I totally agree about having that hook in the little of the draperies to hold and give them more stability-' because I noticed whenever I first put my shears behind my curtains how it started drooping in the middle and eventually it did fall lol! 😳 So I totally advocate that we put a nice hook in the middle of the drapes!
    Finally, prior to being in the Military-- having had an Army Dad--who made us make our beds every single morning with them-- I was not very pleased about the suggestion of the
    "hospital corners" 😌
    However, I resigned myself to revisit them--😂😂😂 because-' when done correctly, they do lend an elegant touch to your space.

    Thank you :) Good advice. :) 💖👍👍 How would you recommend bleaching/ cleaning a white sofa- the parts that don't come off and can be thrown in the washer? (Arm rest area, bottom of couch etc.) That's a toughie for me. Any tips will be appreciated. Thank you! 🥰💖🌠🌠

    Hi Kiva, what do you recommend where to start when you build a new home and have an empty canvas so to say? I feel so overwhelmed and most of my furniture just won’t scale to the new spaces in the house… It’s a lot and I wonder where to start… the only room “done” from a design perspective is the laundry room… it is small and kind of contained … how do I tackle the rest?

    Great tips Kiva, really enjoyed the video. The painting behind you looks interesting, but I cant really see it fully also nice to see more color. Your place looks great, I'm just that kind of person who loves color with a splash of white. Looking forward to Thursday, thanks for sharing 😍😍

    Can you recommend a good steamer? I tried one once (inexpensive model) and tried them on my son's drapes. I ended up taking all of them down and ironing them. I'd like to buy a good steamer to use on my new linen drapes. Thank you!
