    The best house tours are the ones that show that the house is well-lived, that tell stories of travels, family, friends. It's so warm. It's a home.

    "my house looks like me" THAT is the secret to style-- develop your personal style, then let it flow into every aspect of your life. I was so proud when a visitor to my craft fair booth where my daughter and I were selling our artwork said that our booth had a wonderful, welcoming, bookish aura, and had a distinct earthy smell-- that's how I want my home to feel!

      so what? i can enjoy this beautiful home and still live in a minimalist environment. i can’t live in this house, i cannot maintain it, i don’t have time to clean it, i don’t have the money to accumulate this much stuff, i don’t have as much story as she does to tell of every piece in my house and i shouldnt have to. thats why this is HER house lol. just watch the video and as your username says cheer up!

      @@AJ-td5fk You dont have to maintain anything with art or pain on the walls? Also not really that expensive, most of my home is thrifted and most of the art in my home is also thrifted. You can be a minimalist and still have a warm and welcoming home, doesnt need to be FULL of stuff, just doesnt need to be dead and dreary and devoid of life.

    This home is like a cool glass of water on a hot summer's day. It is just filled with soul and story, and I love that. It literally makes me want to weep when I see all these manufactured homes with all the "right" designer things or big box items (so representative of our culture) but anyway, this home speaks to my heart, and to what it means to be human.

    Just so incredibly warm and dreamy, feel like I could spend ages eating and reading there. I have to say though, the ease with which she got on the property ladder made my heart sink lol. Don’t begrudge her good fortune at all, but life will never be that good or affordable again (whether you’re buying or getting council housing) and it’s a damn shame.

    Such a great home with so many great ideas. I love a colorful lived-in home with stories to tell and things to look at where you feel welcome right away. I highly dislike the beige and white and "everything the same as everyone else's" style that too many people seem to be into today. This brings me such joy. You can tell her personal style translated to the home.
    I kept having to pause to look at the stunning details. I'll definitely have to take some screencaps for inspiration. Thanks so much for sharing.

      Its called maximalism (opposit of minimalism), when books, bookshelves, vases, art objects, walls full with paintings, big chandeliers, layers of curtains, layers of carpets, mixture of textiles, mix of patterns, colors, materials are in rooms. It remainds of "curiosity chambers" bevor museums were even invented in history.
