    It’s very refreshing to see a couple who decorates according to their personal taste instead of hiring an interior designer who would turn their house into a bland, designer show home. It’s fun to watch your progress too.👏❤️👏

      🌟Good decision to spot your hubby. The ladder did seem perched rather precariously on the step like that, especially considering the serious cathedral like ceiling in landing.😮The extreme height made me dizzy.
      😁Fun to share a bit of your home-making adventure with you. You're both a great representative for British design. Lovely to see your process, style, options & your enthusiasm for making improvements. You clearly have exquisite taste. Well done!

    I agree.. Take your time.. Stay away from trends.. Get what you love.. And then it lasts years :)... also better for the environment than redecorating every few years due to trends changing or poor quality!

    The brass switch plates are so lovely! I have never really cared for plastic covers. They are so hard to keep clean and damage easily. The ceiling rose is beautiful without going too far. I wish more people would get samples of paints, fabrics, and wall papers. Most frayed nerves during decorating are caused by not putting samples up on the wall to see how they will go together and in what light. Have fun and be safe!🌱🐱👩‍🌾

    Hi Kirsten and Joerg, my grandads property had the most wonderful original ceiling Roses but they where real, you can tell with the bought ones as they are not as prominant and thick, the Roses where more wider thicker and stood out more against the ceiling, Originals are the best but I think you can buy them today maybe in antique seller or something but you will notice the difference, I loved my grandads house dating back to 1880 with all the quirky doors and ceilings and old wood bannisters it is how I grew up surrounded by quality and I look for this in a house now all these specific features....There was also a lovely arch at the beginning of the stairs it was so intricate in detail and lovely...I love what you do always liking and living in the past I am having a saturday night catching up with all video I missed by not discovering you and it has been a good night very relaxing....I just bought today a lovely cherry blossom serving dish by royal doulton for 3.00 pounds bargain at my local charity shop...it is very nice indeed...and perfect quality I can't wait to find a house that I can bring all this to one day still looking....but your house looks wonderful and I am really into the wallpaper of william morris...did you know William Morris designs it is in public domain and not copyrighted so anyone can use his design to print table cloth, wallpaper everything.... I could make mugs with his design it is there for everyone to use commercially nowdays and many other.What some people do is go to public domain and download for example matisse art and they download it and print it and put it in picture frame dosen't cost much...however I do like going to antique places myself.

    Wow Joerg has a lot of patience painting with that tiny roller! I use the biggest one I can hold up. I am glad I’m not the only one who still buys wallpaper in this day and age. I always use blue flowers for our bedroom too. I figure blue makes it look more masculine so my husband isn’t stuck in a girl’s room. Plus I love blue!

      Hahah he is actually so so quick with it though and he prefers the smaller rolls when working with Edward Bulmer or Farrow & Ball paint as it creates the best results we found out.

    Loved all your beautiful purchases. Loved the colourful striped runner & stair rods & the lovely brass light switches & knobs ❤️ my husband & I are the same. We take our time, save & invest in good quality furniture & items that will last instead of wasting money changing things every few years. Thank you for sharing. Have a fab weekend. Love to you both. 🌈

    Hey Joerg, why do you prefer the narrow paint roller to a wider one? Might I suggest that round switch surrounds are more traditionally Victorian English, but you've definately made a big improvement from the plastic ones. It goes without saying that it's always lovely to watch your videos, well I've said it anyway. I'll come back later to watch some more of this one. Back again, I totally agree with you about spending quite a bit of time deciding on the choice of colours and style, although like me you already know what you like and those choices are basically what you stick to most of your life. Your house will reflect all the things you love and therefore you always feel happy and content when you walk around and relax in your house, it becomes your home. Thank you for the roller advice, I always appreciate getting a "better result" with paint, therefore, I will use narrow, thin paint rollers from now on.

    • @KirstenJoerg
      @KirstenJoerg  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you John. Joerg prefers the narrow paint roller with this paint as he has more control and it gives a far better result. Sure but we wanted these switches as we have always loved them (it's always personal preference). We wish you a lovely weekend.

    Your light switch plates are beautiful! Really elevates them. I have to say that we had light dimmers put in the bedrooms, but also the bathroom. It’s been so nice over the years to not have the bright bathroom light blind you in the middle of the night!

    I think the wall in the landing, where you will put the trim piece where the wallpaper ends, will look good the same blue you painted the cupboard under the stairs. It will look good any color really. I thought the blue might make the blue in the wallpaper pop. It's gorgeous. I love all the decorating you're doing.

    I'm so busy working on our house at the moment but it was lovely to sit down with a coffee this morning and watch this. We have a 1930's house with quite a lot of original features but sadly some had gone (one of which I was responsible for and am very cross with myself about), we are about to replace all our plug and light fittings with bakelite ones and have ordered one set like you did just to try them for sizing, we've gone for reproduction rather than original, even though you can get hold of them, as it is too dangerous to mess about with electrics, we are replacing all our pendants light fittings with period ones too and they come with the gorgeous fabric flex instead of plastic covered wiring. I agree with you about taking time to research and think things through, I changed my mind about a dozen times over our bedroom paint, I was going to have wallpaper but decided to paint and make our fireplace and stripped flooring the main focal point, I've showed my husband so many variations of white paint I know he isn't even listening anymore. I'm looking forward to your next installment.

    Everything is lovely. The light switches are great, they look very elegant. When you said that you liked the colorful runner I think my heart skipped a beat because I couldn't picture it but when you showed the picture of the stairs with the runner I fell in love!😍 You guys have great taste and I love that Joerg does not mind the flower patterns that a lot of men stirred away from. You got a beautiful home.

    • @KirstenJoerg
      @KirstenJoerg  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I have those light switches only they are round with the porcelain back. Lovely choice. The wallpaper is stunning and of course it had to be Darcy. I like the beige with the blue ticking fabric. Pick good quality fabric because it will last and drape better. ❤️ The architrave is perfect. I’ve used it in my bathroom. It was my husband’s idea. He’s an eco builder and dry stone dyker. It’s going to be stunning, can’t wait to see it.

    • @KirstenJoerg

    You are so smart and patient with your decorating choices. I think the runner you like the best would be beautiful. It will tie everything together and add a whimsical pop of color. The switch plates are great also, love the toggle feature. I am so excited to see the progress unveil.

    • @KirstenJoerg
      @KirstenJoerg  4 ปีที่แล้ว
