I think wrinkles and gray hairs and cellulite tell our story of life. I'm 43 and I'm gonna let all my gray come in without covering it. I'm not gonna worry so much about my cellulite because I don't have enough life left to waste it when I have a partner and family that love me for who I am. Laugh lines and forehead wrinkles show that I've lived and I have enough space to live even longer. Remember it's about the life you lived and not what you look like when it's over that's important. It took a long time to decide this for myself and occasionally those bad thoughts creep back in but I hope I can stay on my path of self love and acceptance and I think you and your life are just as beautiful and worth thinking the same ❤

I was highly entertained. 😂 Very imaginative bedroom decor. My guy is very supportive like yours, only he prefers ornate, slightly-over-the-top French decor. We have some 15 pillows on our king bed, which I think is excessive, but he wanted them ALL, so I said, ‘Okay.’ As far as making your king bed look luxurious and balanced, try placing 3 large European pillows along the back for height. Darker antique gold shams on them will give you a nice contrast with the green and make your gold accents pop. You can vacuum your plastic greenery gently with a brush attachment once a week and that will help keep it nice. I have several large floral arrangements in my house and that really works to keep them nice. 😊

I kinda think Nick was wholly on board because it meant the bedroom was gonna get finished. He may not have a preference about decor, or he likes her choices, but mostly just liked the idea of getting switch plates and the like finally installed. And of course a curtain to block that too bright window in the mornings.

Weird dusting hack! I also have vines on my walls (ivy vines spray painted antique gold with metallic butterflies). To remove dust, put a pair of pantyhose around the hose of vacuum cleaner and secure with a rubber band. You can vacuum up close to the foliage without suctioning it off of the wall. Also don't use the highest suction setting on the vacuum.

Oh joy, you finally acknowledged the lack of roller [tape? drop cloth?].

Was about to post our resolution for spilled paint on carpet, too. We dropped an entire gallon of bright blue paint (which split open and almost all of it spilled out) on the carpet in our condo hallway. Tonnes of paper towel (and some sacrificed actual towels), we scooped up as much as we could, then worked on the huge stain. It’s thinnest around the edges, so start at the outside edge and scrub inwards, always keeping the edges wet, so the paint can’t set (interior latex paint is water based. This wouldn’t work with oil based paint). We used plain water and a scrub brush, frequently refreshing the rinse water and getting fresh towels. We borrowed the condo wet vac to vacuum up the (very blue!) water when it got too much, and then finished up with a Rotostatic brand spray on carpet cleaner (designed as a spot cleaner, not the kind for a carpet shampoo machine). This actually saved the carpet, and our relationship with the condo board! I don’t know how Goo Gone would work, but if it’s a huge amount of paint, this method worked well and plain water, a bucket (or plastic garbage can…), paper towels and old rags (or towels), are things everyone has. If they don’t have a wet vac, it would just take a lot more blotting & ringing out of towels. An absorbent sponge would also be useful. Would be even better if it’s not trying to clean up an ENTIRE GALLON of paint. Also, those of us who know what happened, have all talked about how funny it’s going to be when the carpet gets replaced, because we KNOW there’s going to be a huge blue stain on the concrete underneath. 😆

I'm a renter too - I feel your pain. There is a chef from Japan that has made a custom 'kitchen' in each house he's rented...and I'm thinking of using some of the techniques he uses - which is basically creating false walls using tension with the floor and ceiling.

What a fun watch!!! I painted (or chose the paint) and painted my bedroom a luscious purple, ceiling, too. Trim is an antique white. Made draperies in 3 different dark fabrics. I LOVE it. It’s dark and cozy for sleeping. I look forward to seeing more videos!

Hello Lovely, I just happened upon your bedroom make over and you made my heart smile reminding me of my youth and my provocative sense of style. You are a talented charming young lady who made my granny self happy to pass the torch to the younger generation to inspire. Thank you.

Appreciation comment for the edit of Rachel disappearing into the shrubbery wall. And a shout out for Nick for being the sweetest about the rug and letting Rachel design the bedroom of her dreams. ❤

"brush strokes for your body" is the healtiest, cutest, sweetest description of wrinkles and stuff ❤ I love this woman so much, and the room is ofc amazing! You're an inspiration

Hi i'm a retired theatredesigner from Amsterdam. i so much like your work approach as if it's a decor. you don't take yourself to seriously, have a great sense of style fashion and interiorwise. your murals are great. and i love the music for me to watch your video is a total theatre experience. a sense of humour, some suspence nice music, great skills wonderfull interior and a positive perspective. thanks

The room feels so much calmer once it was painted and decorated, the muted greens and darker colors really made everything feel peaceful, like walking into a dark forest and sitting a while.

Add two European pillows behind your standard size pillows, and then buy a few more throw pillows for the front of different textures and colors. I guarantee you will like the bed much better! Also, if you went with a thicker drapery, maybe like a velvet behind that pediment it might give you more cozy vibes. And I agree with Nick your painting always scares me! I’m somebody who tapes off an entire room with plastic and the meticulously tapes every single thing and then measures. Your chaotic energy is everything I want to be, but I can’t, so thanks Rachael!

Rachel! Almost any store that sells paint will match any color that you bring in. A swatch, a stuffed animal, etc. You dont have to do all that mixing all the time. ....unless you just want to ❤

I thought the same thing. Now that she found the color she likes, she could have it matched. However, the process of small-batch mixing and painting with a brush will give it some subtle variations. I was almost going to suggest she could have done a scumble: take two different color paints and mix them directly on the walls: that can achieve an interesting visual texture, which can be subtle to obvious, depending on how contrasting the colors, and how much you blend them. But overall, I think she seems happy with the results, so it all worked out.

I just wanna say.. This is my first video of yours that I've seen and I instantly loved your energy! Instant subscription, haha. You put such hard work into the room and it looks so enchanting, I'm sure the video footage doesn't even do it justice. The aesthetic is my absolute favorite, I've lacked the energy and motivation for years to actually create a space I'm proud of and comfortable to be in, so seeing you do this is so inspirational. Once my fiance and I finally own a home, I can only hope I'll set aside the time and create a space that is magical, comforting, and makes me actually happy to be there. A comfortable and positive space to create art, read, meditate, relax, or simply just *be*. Thank you for sharing your bedroom makeover journey with us, it truly makes me happier having watched this video. Much love and positive vibes sent to you and your family

For the bed I think the problem might be that it looks a bit 2 dimensional unlike the rest of the room that is just popping out of the walls and for that I thought maybe you’d consider changing the bed crown thing into a circular one so it will be more of “above” the bed rather than “behind” it so it gives it more 3 dimensional look also the curtains will cover a bigger part of the big bed and with the help of the dark curtains it will look smaller and fits the theme more.. and if you felt like you need more sunlight you could just drag the curtains all the way behind the bed and I think that curve of the curtains will give a really majestic look wayyy more than if the curtains were just flat .. I thought this would help, but at the end of the day it’s your own space.. side note: after all of those plants you need to hire someone dedicated for cleaning them .. I have the same concerns as your mother 🌚🌚😂🤍

Now we wait for TayBeepBoop's next video complaining when she influences someone to follow her DIY videos. Seriously though, I always drop what I'm doing to watch your videos and I'm really happy that you posted now, as it was my birthday today. A very maksyful birthday to me!

Rachel you’re one of my reasons for pursuing architecture and design

This turned out SO pretty! If youre unhappy with the bed, you could try flipping it around and puttimg it on the wall with the mural. Obviously it would hide some of it (although id hang curtains to make a frame of the mural instead of a bed crown). It would make the large bed look a little less awkward by not being infront of the windows!

For the bed, you could totally make a quilt that matches the vibe of the room that will have designs on it. Could do a big moth in the middle or something. It’d be really pretty

Rachel, thank you. I have heard so many times in my career as an aesthetician that they don't want their laugh lines, crow's feet, stretch marks, or any signs of aging, and it was always so disheartening. You just put it into words. It shows you've lived, and ponody's nerfect.

I just had to comment after seeing the lovely thumbnail: Girl, you are so beautiful, and your designs for your room look like a dream, keep up that awesomeness, because, as within, as without!

Rachel, I went through a “minimalist” phase where I lied to myself for like seven years about my stuff-related habits and needs. I love being in my 30’s and accepting the maximalist rainbow absurdity that is my aesthetic. From one busy wall bitch to another, thank you for stanning the busy wall lifestyle.

Same. I can’t do maximalism with stuff sitting everywhere, but I love maximalism with the walls. My room is covered in art, photos, and shelves. I’m too clumsy to have stuff everywhere on the floor and too much furniture. I like open space but I want to feel like I’m in a museum.

Can you give Nick a giant hug in my name for being so supportive and kind? Like he didn't even sigh, he was just like ok we'll get a new rug! I've never seen someone handle whoopsies so well!

hint for another day :) Water down your black paint, paint it all over the frame, but whipe away excess now and again. The black will stay in the dents and cuts and deeper areas just like dirt and aging. Then you can dry-brush a lighter golden color on top (in the manor you used your black) to highlight ascent details you want more visible :)

I really thought you were going to say "just kidding I got the roller out" when you started painting the ceiling! I commend you for staying true to your convictions...but maaannnn that must've been brutal!

Nick saying "Don't be sorry" made me so happy🥺❤️ Words like that is so healing and supportive when you may feel a bit bad about something that happened.

as someone who lives in a dorm too, carpets, plants and fairy lights make all the difference🌱 i also took apart some of the ugly dorm cupboards and replaced them with crates and covered the rest with big tablecloths :) you got this!! it's a challenge but it is not impossible✨

As an artist and painter of faces I completely agree with you! I love painting all the laugh lines, the asymmetrical eyes, lopsided smiles, and crooked noses. Without all those things there isn't any life or soul to a face. The things that make a person unique are my favorite things to draw or paint because it's what makes them look like them and not just some face an artist put together.

I also painted my bedroom Green. Very green. Welcome to the dark bedroom club. Velux has a roof balcony. Might be cool to replace your regular skylight with this option.

THIS IS SO GORGEOUS OH MY GRAVYY!!! I have some idea’s if you wanted to add to it like you said: if your bed doesn’t feel right maybe it’s the head board, you could try a larger and vinagtage framed one instead :D Also I just feel like bronze-gold crowing for the ceiling would look so cool :) ANYWAYS YOUR THE COOLEST !!

This is quite literally and without exaggeration, the bedroom of my dreams. Also so happy I found your account, you’re a joyful human and so enjoyable to watch.
