HAPPY SUNDAY EVERYONE!☀️ If you are trying to make your small space look & feel bigger, I hope this video gives you some practical ideas to transform your space! Would you apply any of these ideas to your home?
Watching it 🤍
Wall art ideas were great can't wait to do this.

Great
The problem with see-through (acrylic or glass) furniture is that you will constantly have to clean it in order for it to look good.
I have a coffee table with a glass section and it’s SUCH a pain to clean! So an all glass or acrylic table is NOT appealing to me! It would require constant maintenance to keep clean
Black furniture also.
especially if you have furry pets! Our glossy black piano shows everything, too!
Pocket doors are great!
The fact that you give us all this advice for free, you are a step above the rest 🙏💕
Great tips, Kristen! The “too much stuff on the console” tip is one I give to friends and family so often. My eye does not enjoy chaos. 🤣

Transparent furniture is one of the best ways to showcase your pet’s nose prints, dust and fingerprints. Also, acrylic chairs will eventually develop fissures and cracks. I weigh 107 lbs and my chairs were starting to crack in less than two weeks. Food for thought.
The tip about large scale flooring is genius!
I couldn't agree more that translucent furniture makers your space look bigger, but the down side is they require constant cleaning as finger prints seem to appear without being touched. Thanks for sharing!

Took your tip on curtains. I had this beautiful classic Bombay curtains. French blue color. Bought rod and clips on Amazon, and installed it 6" from the fame of the window. My bedroom looks amazing!
\
I did same. Doubled up on curtains and hung out and up in my small rooms. The difference was amazing. Get many compliments.
I leave in a 1,200 sq ft house and you helped me a lot with your tips every time. I felt relieved that I can improve the look of my house with changes I can make without spending a lot since I am retired and on a fixed income. Thank you so much , you have helped me even with your previous videos more than you ever know. More power to you and take care
That’s actually a normal size for a family home with kids in Germany. It wouldn’t be considered small.
@@claudiakarl7888 That's very interesting to me as I'm curious about housing and home trends in other countries. In US it's considered a rather small size home. I have a home that's 1400 sq feet and have 3 teenage sons, myself and partner (plus a daughter who lives there only part of the time). While there's enough bedrooms for everyone, it often feels crowded but I don't know whether it actually is or not. We previously lived in a 2200 sq foot home and it was way more comfortable. People often comment that my home is very small and I always just assumed it was but maybe not in everyone else's eyes lol.
I’m a new sub and I’ve been watching a few of your videos… I must say, I’m happy I subscribed. I really appreciate the “decorating smaller space” videos, as I have a small home. Great tips! Thanks!!!🙂
I never thought about the curtain tip of having them match the wall color. Great idea. Thank you
Thank you, Kristen for a well-timed video! I wish more creators talked about small spaces.
Definitely going to try the bigger wall art ideas. Thank u.
Thank you for your comments on large wall art and gallery walls. It makes sense!
Emty space in shelves
Cutain colors
Pocket doors
Transparent furniture
Lightining
Big tiles floor
Big wall art
Big rugs
Vertical hangers or shelves
I’m going to try the curtain and wall color idea. It looks so elegant.
Me too. Thanks for this tip
Kristen all that I can say is THANK YOU! You are a great help for me!😊😊
I recently implemented floor to ceiling and wall to wall curtains in the same colour as our walls and it looked amazing. Our bedroom looks huge and so luxe. Now I need to look at large wall art for our living room. I’m a little worried about finding the right piece with a neutral aesthetic but I’m up for a challenge.
You could always try DIYing decor that’ll be cheaper, custom & match your personal aesthetic 👍🏻💯🙃
Hi Debbie: consider taking Picture with your smart phone . go to office depot and have large print made. have them mount or go to Goon Will store or Salvation army store . you can fine picture a frame and paint it. have fun. Ron
Thanks for these updates.
I am always looking forward to seeing your videos, the thing about your videos that you always have new tips, very useful and functional skills. Thanks Kristen. We need to see a spring decor.
Transparent furniture is a great idea
All such great tips, thanks for sharing Kristen 🤗 really like your idea of clearing the floor space to make it feel more open!
I love the idea of adding modern barn doors to a space. Great tips!
Great ideas! Your floor, rugs & large wall art ideas was a real help to me. Thanks!
Love love your tips . Thank you Kristen👏👏😘😘
Love the go larger on rugs and wall art! Never realized it makes a huge difference.
Kristen, so much of what you suggest for small spaces is spot on! I took the backing off my bookshelves and purchased a large rattan chair with slats so the wall behind them could be seen. This really helped to give my living room a larger look. Can't wait to implement the pocket door for my laundry/powder room! I wish the original builder had thought to do this.....
Love your tips and I love the examples you show. I always learn something new. Amazing video, Kristen! xo
Orizontal surfaces: got them! 👌🏻😉
I love turning on lamps after dinner and a cosy warm light creates a really nice feel in a room.
Thank you so much for ideas for small spaces since alot of people are down sizing. Love your channel no matter what the topic is. Enjoy your Sunday
One of the best decorating videos I’ve watched on TH-cam! It’s chalk full of super ideas that can be implemented in a small, medium or large home. Thank you Kristen!
Thank you love your videos on small spaces it is always a challenge .
Loved the large art piece advice ... especially the less expensive option of combining many art pieces together.. genius 👌👌
I got it, Kristen!! Large wall art makes you feel more comfy and welcome 🌸🐾💖
Always looking forward to your new videos. Enjoying them so much. 😊
I agree with all your tips and I employ them. Thnx
I absolutely love the sliding door idea. We just recently built a new home and I regret not adding doors to our bonus room that I will use as an office. But this idea is the perfect solution and even better than the french door option! Thank you for your content!
Thank you...I am staging my home for sale and I needed to be reminded /and or validated of some of these ideas. I will definitely replay...
Thank You So Much Kristen, I’m using all your tips and tricks to decorate my 1 bedroom apartment. Loves from Rio 🇧🇷
Always enjoy. Going to implement large wall art. Thank you
Love it. Totally agree on the larger wall art. Thank you
This is a positive surprise, some ideas that I didn't know before.
This video has given me so much ideas to implement in my brother house. The space is a little small and I can see this tips help free a lot of space
Definitely mirrors! I just finished three of the four walls in our family room with various sizes of gold mirrors. So beautiful!
I have been following you for so long and you will always be my favorite ❤️ So thankful for you!
always look forward to seeing you here every week Maria! Thank you!!!
Thanks for the topic of lighting, you posted about backup lights. Am loving the new lighting options. Recharge as in use.
Excellent video - I have learned so much. Just about to refurbish my small house so everything you say is useful. Thanks
Awesome video with some great tips! Thank you !
This is one of the best decorating videos on TH-cam. Super great ideas for any size home! Thank you Kristen
I ABSOLUTELY LOVED LOVED LOVED ALL OF THE CONTENT IN THIS VIDEO!! I have a "small space" home and all of these tips were so inspiring to me. Thank you for sharing!!
Love it Kristen! Especially the idea of wall mounted storage.
Great video, Kristen! Thank you so much for structuring the content so well, and for showing examples. The first tips I will implement are matching the colour of the curtains to the wall colour, then hanging them very high, and also buying 2 pairs of panels in order to cover the space between the sides of each window and the wall. Have a wonderful week! Can´t wait for your next posting 😊❣
I like the curtain hack advice same color curtains as wall never thought of that one,
Love, love this video for small spaces.
I need to use large art pieces or alternatives such as gallery walls! I do appreciate that you focus on decorating, and organizing. All your suggestions are so reasonable.
Very good Kristen! Great ideas and presentation! We love you!
Hi Kristen.. I’ve subscribed and I have to tell you, you are one of my favorites. You have clear, clever and beautiful ideas, decor and just great taste.

Thankyou for these great hints. I live in a very small space
Love love all the content, I have put to practice your advise about installing curtains a bit higher and wider than the window and it looks great, also the same color of the wall. I always get compliments. Thanks !
Thank you so much for this really inspiring video
EXCELLENT video Kristen ... keep ‘em comin’! LOVED IT!!!
Good tips 👌. We just did our new small house finishings and did do most of these , especially the drop down desk and curtain
Bigger rugs, that it so easy, and a genius trick. Wall mount the desk; I'm doing that. And negative space, I get that now. Thank you.
