@@heatherw5632Sometimes when you cap the center one the other two are not equal distance from each other. 26-30 inches is the ideal distance between the pendants. Allow 12 inches from the edge of the island to the light fixture. To do it right, I would hire an electrician and handyman for the drywall touch up. First, have the light you have in mind to show the electrician, then have an electrician move the power to where it needs to be, then have the handyman fill in the drywall holes, patch, and paint. It can add up in costs but it is very much worth it in the end. Hope this helps!

@@LinaRoseAlenina You are welcome. There are several materials that are plastic/man made materials, used on rugs like olefin (which is another name for polypropylene), nylon, polyester and acrylic. Viscose is a fabric and a type of rayon, and is considered both natural and synthetic. Still a good choice for rugs but more delicate than the plastics. Always check labels for percentage of materials used if they are disclosed on it, as even some poly or plastics ones with high quality, densely woven fibers or a blend with other natural materials are higher quality and durable, and washable with a steam machine like Rug Doctor, for example, if right now, you cannot afford natural materials like jute, straw, wool, cotton, and such., they are a better alternative. But mind you, sometimes is better to save for a natural one to buy later, as some of those made with higher quality synthetic materials can be a s pricey as the natural ones and won't last as long. But then again, even a wool one can look like crap if not maintained correctly.

That last “stop doing this” was too cute!! I love hearing your opinions and laughing with you!! You have great taste, give fabulous, affordable (but sometimes not 🤣) advice, and go about it all so playfully.

Several of the tips you gave reminded me of Coco Chanel quotes. First: when thinking about adding brass accessories to your kitchen: “Before you leave the house, look in the mirror and take one thing off.” In other words, "Less is more." Also, we need to be ourselves and not copy a style just because it is the trend. “The most courageous act is to think for yourself. Aloud.” I think this is something we all can take to heart, and it is something you almost always say at some point in your videos.

If I had cookies or candy displayed it would tempt me every time I go by! Who needs that??

Hi, Arvin, i dont have ANY of those "Stop doing..............to your kitchen" 🤭🤭🤭. I keep my kitchen simple and with things that i REALLY need. Tyvm for the video. "PEACE & LOVE".✌ Note: i love your laughing, makes me laugh.😁🤭

Arvin, I thought you would share with us the importance of cooking our meals. I know there are a lot of companies that deliver meals. But, how hard is it to look up a recipe, buy the ingredients from your supermarket yourself. We are becoming a lazy society. I was taught as a little girl the enjoyment of cooking is going to the market picking out the ingredients by look, touch, and smell. Then I would come home and cook with my husband, family member, or friend. And for those of us who are elderly and have a special needs adult at home. Online ordering from your neighborhood market is so simple these days, for pickup or delivery. I feel we all need to support our Community markets and stores. That’s my opinion.

Recently discovered your channel and I gotta say I really enjoy it. I love how a lot of what you promote is individuality and steering away from mass produced items and decor. I really love how you make it a point to tell your viewer that if they enjoy any of the items you critique that they should continue to feel that way and not to let anyone change how they feel about something in their home that they love.

Large kitchen pendants… I like the smaller ones because I don’t WANT to notice the fixtures. I like light that comes out of no where. Lamps and fixtures are actually something I dislike. I never find anything I like unless it’s very traditional like Tiffany etc. also, the large pendants bring the height of the ceiling down, I feel like. I don’t want the added horizontal line created by the bottom of the pendants lol they feel like they belong outside if they’re huge. Lol but its just my opinion. Lol lighting fixtures are annoying to me in general lol Also, as A mega cook at home… you need lighting at your different stations. They focused the light right there because that’s where they do a lot of their chopping and stuff (right next to the sink) and there’s a huge difference between what something looks like from way way way far away and what it actually feels like inside the space. Those lights are situated perfectly for someone working in the space. Lol ❤️
