- Tag along to Seattle, Washington as we visit shop owner and author Ted Watson Kennedy and partner Ted Sive in their charming city apartment! Learn how the Teds, inspired by an article they read, decided they wanted three small homes in different parts of the country - this being their first they acquired over 30 years ago. Hear how the Teds developed the color palette for the apartment inspired by their favorite Paris hotel. See how Ted melded function with visual pleasure in his much used kitchen where his signature green and open shelving are the space’s secret sauce. Discover what and how they collect and how Ted, a merchandising wizard displays it all with aplomb. Watch as Ted explains his tips for kitchen storage and organization and how it enables their frequent entertaining with ease and style. If in Seattle, but sure to visit Ted's two Watson Kennedy shops. And if you can't get enough of Ted’s tips and relaxed entertaining style, be sure to check out our other two videos with the Ted team at the Vashon Island retreat • At Home on Vashon Isla... and their Hudson Valley home • At Home with Ted Kenne... !

Susanna is an absolute master in politeness. She knows how to compliment the people she visits.. and she comes through as sincere and knowledgeable.
Thank you so much!!! I love my hosts!
Agreed!
That Jasmine climbing inside was such a delightful surprise. It must smell absolutely gorgeous in there. Soon as he turns the key and walks into his home on a warm sunny day that fragrance must just envelope him. Really charming. Thank you for showcasing so well, yet another character-filled home full of wonderful creative ideas and real personality.
Our pleasure! So glad you enjoyed!
You can make a mini version of it by getting some jasmine plants at Trader Joe's! I currently have 2 blossoming on my kitchen sill and am hoping I can overwinter them indoors and plant them outside come summer 😊
At a low point in my life, I discovered TKW. His warmth, his kindness, his genuineness, his pleasure in beautiful objects, and most of all his wish to share the good things in life with everyone, was like a ray of light and comfort. He has shown countless ways of improving how you live, how to entertain and how even the simplest things, like a bunch of herbs in a glass can give happiness.
I wish the 2 Teds many, many more years of showing people how to get the best out of their lives, and have fun as well.
I agree Ted’s joy is infectious and I’m so glad it uplifted you !
So heartened to read that! And what a kind and generous comment - thank you!
Ted and Ted live the lifestyle they sell. So many great decorating ideas here, even for the smallest apartment spaces. Open shelves, displaying colorful kitchen necessities, and covering up window views that spoil the ambience of your living space. Suzanne, once again, I love your outfits.
We agree! And Susanna always looks great!
Thank you!!
And I like how Susanna always dresses to coordinate with/complement the home that she's visiting!
I don’t even try to coordinate it just somehow always works out!
It must be subliminal! ;-)
It's amazing how Maximalists make a space not looked cluttered! It must be a gift.
Giving and receiving is so important in a relationship and it was so beautiful to see the symbology of their years of living life together showcased in such n inspirational way!
Agreed!
Oh my gosh this makes me so homesick for my life in downtown Seattle. I lived right in the middle between the Teds’ home at the Gainsborough on First Hill, and their shop on First & Spring. How many things I bought from both their shops. They are so magical. The Gainsborough, built in 1930, is a Grand Dame building in a wonderful old leafy neighborhood a stones throw from the high rises of downtown. As an urban hiker, I passed by it multiple times, and now, through Quintessence, I get to peer inside, at not just any apartment, but at the Teds’ apartment! Such a treat. 💚
So glad to bring back such lovely memories!!
Your videos always make me happy.😊
Glad you like them!
Handsomely beautiful.. so much contrast on that gallery wall 🤎
My heart jumps with joy everytime a new Quintessence video comes out 😍
Well thank you!!
Awesome! Just awesome!
Love the mixed colors and products !!!
Happyness ! ⭐️⭐️⭐️
A feast of fabulous details. Love.
This was a delight from start to finish.
Immaculate, everything beautifully presented. Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Refrigerator goals. ❤❤❤
Yes!!!
Gotta love the bird nest on the Dining table!
The 2 Teds know how to live. All their places are fantastic!
Lovely. My home is quite small by American standards, but I've always said I'd rather have a second home than a bigger one. I love the idea not only of quality over quantity of space, but also of variety of scenery and lifestyle, which these gentlemen seem to have achieved across their 3 homes.
Exactly!! Glad you enjoyed!
Love them so much…miss Bailey tho. ❤️
I love everything! Ted and Ted's design aesthetic is just so comfortable and natural. Thank you for making the world a more beautiful and inspiring place to be.
Glad you like them!
This couple are real gentlemen. Love their home, shop and the whole video.
They are and so glad you enjoyed!
Still my favorite vlog. I cannot wait for the next episode.
Me too love this channel😃👊🏾
THANK YOU!

My husband Ted, and I will have to visit your store. We live just outside of Seattle. Loved your home on Vashon Island. Thank you so much for sharing! Sincerely, Scott and Ted

You’ve done it again with this beautiful episode. The Teds get it right every time - thank you for starting a weekend with peace, tranquility and most of all, style!

I'm now craving a G and T with Hendricks.

Yes! And hi!
Fun to see the Ted's in another of their homes. Great guys with great taste.

Ted's guide to stylish entertaining is my favorite book! Great episode... so inspiring, thank you!
Awesome! Thank you!
Very hospitable home
Cozy
Warm
Love chocolate color

White shutters are pretty
Watched the 11.41 minutes, then backed up and watched it again. So much to see. Love seeing their home and then their shops. Hello from Australia.
So glad you loved!!
Still get excited when one of your videos pops up. Love the style of their homes and their stores could spend hours happily in them all.
Us too!
Open shelving and glass fridge doors are nice when organized but probably incompatible with children or untidy inhabitants. Perfect for this couple though. Thanks again Susanna.
Our pleasure! - Stacey (behind the camera)
Just loved it all. Hope to buy on line ❤
Enjoy shopping!
One complaint……I wish it was longer!…❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I live near Seattle so when someone visits and we get over to Pike's market, his store is essential to the day. His book on partying, "Ted Kennedy Watson's Guide to Stylish Entertaining" isn't like any "how to give a party book" i've ever read before. He's so casual. I was like "really, it can be that easy?" That book changed the way I plan a party. I find him inspiring. Thanks for sharing your visit with him. This is the best channel on TH-cam.
THANK YOU!!! 🙏🏻💚
Wonderful duo.
Interesting lives, great concepts...and Susanna is a national treasure.😍
Why thank you!!
👍🏻👍🏻
Love the ala grey gardens Jasmine ❤
I literally would plan a trip just to go to his shop. Even stay at their arbnb.
I’ve followed his blog for years always wanting more.
S. Perfect fashion vibe as always.
Thank you! And treat yourself to the visit! You won’t be disappointed.
Loved this one ,they inspire me to always set the table with things you love, the older I get the more I want to enter the rooms in my house that have objects that I love, be it art from a relative whom I cherished or a shell from one of my grandchildren. I love the concept of color blocking in the shop and the refrigerator….the lemons in a glass bowl!
So glad you were inspired!
MY FAVORITE CHANNEL IS BACK 🥳
Thank you!! It’s only been 2 weeks 😉
Oh the rooms, the colours, the things to look at. Just love it.
Another fabulous tour!
Beautiful home!
I had to rewind when I heard my friend Mary Maguire name mentioned. 👍
👍🏻👍🏻 love Mary!
How fun, great style, and lovely couple! ❤
Glad you enjoyed!

Love the floor to ceiling art. Super couple -
We agree!
I live in Seattle and love going to both of the stores, they are so beautiful. When I was in one of the stores one day, I got to meet shopkeeper Ted and he was so warm and welcoming. Thanks for the peek into their Seattle apartment, is just lovely.
Our pleasure!
Ted squared, the perfect equation 💙🦋💙
So lovely.
Ted & Ted's Excellent Adventure!!
Thank you for stocking Orasella cherries in your refrigerator. Love your store and am just as excited to see your home here. Anne
Glad you enjoyed!!
What a wonderful surprise…now we’ve seen all of Ted&Ted’s fabulous homes..each with similar characteristics but all with their own personality! I love the way Susanna calls attention to the tiny delights throughout and Stacey focused on the trademark color blocks these iconic Seattle shopkeepers use in all their spaces..shops and homes! So much fun 🟢🟡🟤
🙏🙏🙏🙏💜
Thank you!! So glad you enjoyed!
I would love to see Ted and Ted's home on Vashon Island.

Excelente trabajo , muchas gracias por el contenido cada vez me gusta mas .Un saludo desde España.
Our pleasure!
I’ve watched this before and love it even more. These guys are great and so are you! More videos please🌺
Thank you Janet!! So glad you love the Teds too!
This was brilliant! I loved how their home is gorgeous without looking heavily curated.
So quintessentially Seattle , the shot of your beautiful living room replete with Starbucks on the coffee table -❤
Their home is amazing and beautiful... I have to say I love this channel. I look forward to each video that comes out. Quintessence is just the best interior design channel on TH-cam so so happy that I subscribe.
Thank you so much! That’s means so much to us!! 🙏🏻
We love having you!!
Multiple small homes is really smart 🙂🙂❤️💯
Right?!
Thanks for your inspiring videos!
You are so welcome!
Thanks for featuring the Pacific NW! I grew up in both the Capitol Hill and Queen Anne Hill neighborhoods. I went to Queen Anne High School and thank heavens it wasn't torn down after it closed as a school because there was talk of that. It was turned into condos. So to see a building that is in the First Hill neighborhood is a treat. I now live in Tacoma, WA where there are still a lot of historic buildings.
👍🏻👏🏻
Your girls never let us down !
THANK YOU!! 🙏🏻
They are so good at complementing and using wall color. Yellow isn’t my favorite color but my goodness they made it look fabulous in that room. How warm and inviting their home is but still quite elegant. Also, I need to try some jam and cheese now too lol
Same not a fan of yellow but that room looks great.
Awesome style So wish they had a store in NJ!
👍🏻👍🏻
Well, it's about time you posted a new video. I love love love this home, thank you for posting.
Well thank you but we just posted on two weeks ago! Make sure you’ve subscribed, so you never miss a thing!
@@quintessenceblg WOW, I completely missed that one, now I get to watch two!!!
@@jacksmom3612yay!!
This video was so beautiful and Ted and Ted were so relaxed, I was not ready for it to end!
Thank you!! So glad you enjoyed!
Thank you both for sharing a wonderful video journey through your store and your home in Seattle
Two Ted’s very organised and both doing what makes you both happy 😃
Everything beautifully placed in your store and home 😊
Both decorating your home to your own taste to enjoy with beautiful displays of so many collective pieces that bring you joy from your joy of travels 😊
You would find me in your store amongst the kitchen wares 😊
Glad you enjoyed it
I am not an organized person, wish I was. So the open shelves, fridge with glass door with light is not for me. But it is practical and your home is beautiful and so much colour which I love.
One of my favorites! Three small homes!!!
👍🏻👍🏻
The sort of shop I absolutely love, I would think I was in heaven in there.
Now I want to visit Seattle more than ever 💚💚💚
I've watched your visits with Ted & Ted at their other two homes. Nice to see the full picture. They have made such good use of their wall space, and included many great personal items. Personality is the key making things work.
We agree!
T & T, really remarkable work and ambiance. Thank you for sharing! Longtime Quintessence fan. Extraordinary features that uplift, inspire and enhance ones life! Much gratitude.
Wow these 2 are truly living art!
👍🏻👍🏻
Love this! Delightful! I wish I could see their stores!
Love them so much…miss Bailey tho. ❤️
Absolutely delightful.
Please share the yellow paint colour in your bedroom. 💛
Many years go I knew the Teds’ socially and have been to a few parties at their Gainsborough home. This was many years ago, probably thirty. They were such nice men and gracious hosts.
They still are!
This video is packed with so much personality, great visuals and information in just under 12 minutes. I will definitely watch it over and over again. Thumbs up for sure from me! 👍🏾
Awesome, thank you!
