Your designs are truly unique! Not a lot of designers out there can really honestly say that. You’re genuine and also it’s really cool you keep things around you that hold sentimental value for any reason and you design a space around people. That’s what you’re supposed to do imo. That’s how I design spaces too! You’re doing a great job- keep up your good work and healing in between❤

Rachel, what a beautiful way to turn grief into an extension of love. My dream room! I noticed you kept apologizing about how full it is, but I’ve lived in plant FILLED studio apartments all my adult life. Nothing to apologize for! This room is just stunning

I struggle, we all struggle, but you inspire me to get up and breathe. You are helping a lot. And your aesthetics are gorgeous! Thank you

I appreciate you Mike!

Besides the obvious reasons for loving this channel, the diys, the scenery, your ❤....what I love is that I have just turned 65 and I don't feel out of my element watching your videos. It feels like we're peers even though I could be your mom. Thank you so much for embracing everyone!!

I crave a friendship like the one you and Lindsay have. Thank you so much for sharing your love for each other with us.

Texture overload? Never!! It’s gorgeous! And that lock system is such a fab idea! Great sponsor.

The vibe and commentary and rhythm of this video felt like all the best parts of why I started watching your channel in the first place! Missed the soul and love!

Bravo!!! still loving you and your vision! happy to see you back! xo

Thank you so much!!

Oh my dear, I will never stop admiring you! I love "too much" because minimalist spaces don't reflect the personality of their inhabitant. They remind me of catalogue pictures. I want to be surrounded by my memories, gifts from loved ones and greenery. This is my idea of home, where those who are no longer with me are still with me. Thank you for this video!

You can feel the love and warmth in the room. From the bulldog, to the plants, the positive energy is radiating! I hope you know how much you are loved ❤

Rachel Rachel Rachel ❤❤❤❤❤ omg that is why I live design so much because it is never permanent . Color texture ideas always change just like we do !!!! love love love girl ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Never apologize Rach. You are living, which most people don't know how. The room is not overdone except maybe, with alot of love. 🥰

You look great in those colors on your autumn tank. The color and florals make you look even more beautiful

I'm actually jealous of your plant wall, I've tried twice now at growing Pathos plants, and failed unsuccessfully. I think I give them too much love, and they don't like the UK weather. Great room Rachel, job very well done ❤❤❤

Great to see you again, Rach. We understand you needing to take time. ❤ The space is coming along so nicely! I really enjoy seeing your vision come to life. Also, what a great sponsorship this video. Those locks are dope!

The room will be forever changing as the plant grows, so organic & designed with love in mind 🙏🏻 Blaze looks at you with sooo much love 💗🇬🇧xxxxx

You my dear Rachel are a true gem. You have been blessed with talent that has no limits. I love your creativity, your work ethic, your love of your fur babies and the love you have for your friends. It breaks my heart to know that you're suffering the loss of your loveable compadre who has been your shadow thru life, but you made beautiful memories that will live on forever. Take it one day at a time and hold tight to the memory in your heart. Take care.

As another plant lover, the green makes me feel alive and at peace. The story behind the pieces, is everything. You're talent to think out the box and repurpose into great design.

LLLLLOVING THE BOHEMIAN DECOR. The colors are designer's kiss! 🙂

Rachel! Soooooooo F-in GOOD! LOVE! LOVE! LOVE!😎

Welcome back momma. Take life easy. To heck with rushing, nothing organic about rushing. I love how much love that room exudes. So many details that makes one take notice. The colors are so tranquil in all your spaces. Like you have always been and eventually be again. Big Hug. Woodbrain (I hope I'm saying it correctly) is going to love it.

The guest bedroom is stunning❤❤

I Loved it! Go Rachel! ❤

You did it! I don't think it's too much at all. Adding that glass door and bringing in the outside was a great idea. It's not only way brighter but it highlights the plant wall and all the wood grain. I love the little items on that shelf that make it feel so personal. It's a room anyone would enjoy being in. p.s. It doesn't feel claustrophobic at all -- that was the case for the room in its original (when you moved in) form, not now.

It's gorgeous! Not maximalist at all. Just a variety of things within really 2 themes: wood and plants. Absolutely beautiful! Like the 70s I remember but much more attractive.

Cali would be soooo proud 🤍

Its so sweet and nicely done. And that cellphone lock - chef's kiss. Great room Rachel

"the camera adds 10 lbs of decor" so true!

This is officially my new favourite DIY/Room Makeover you have done! I truly think this room is stunning! The colours with all the wood and greenery! It's chefs kiss! 10/10 🙌

Rachel, the room turned out so gorgeous

Wow, what an absolutely beautiful room!

loving this room, the only "too much decor" i see is beautifully loved and cared for plants and i dont know anyone who would complain, it adds a bit of whimsy to the very structured built in wood and gives it this natural living wood feel.

OUTSTANDING!!! My kind of space!! You Rock, Girl!!!!

You are a light in this world.

The room looks amazing! That wall is beautiful with the mirror and all the plants. Very Zen

Beautiful! The wood and the colors and of course plants make it so cozy 😊

Proud of you Rach. Keep your head up

Way to go Rachel!!! Love the space and so many tinny details that are super cute, unique and very tastfully placed 😊

It's not too much at all! Colors are perfection and it's beautifully curated.

Rachel, first and for most you are a beautiful human being, who I admire for what you put out on your channel. My heart broke for you on the loss of your beautiful girl, and I had to stop watching the vid as I was too emotional, because I understand your loss. In saying that WHAT AN AMAZING ROOM you have created. I love watching your progress and can't wait for the next one. Take care of you.

It came out amazing! Full of heart, good vibes and good memories! I love how you design and hearing about your thought process.

Love every single detail in this room- definitely Lindsey would visit more often and stay longer!!! (I would 🤩) Great DIY Rachel

Oh my goodness it doesn't look cluttered! It looks so comfy and personalized! It feels.. safe.♡ Ironic the you installed a smart lock! Anyways, love it. I love how you always seem to be the exact inspiration I need.

Truly in love with this space you've created. It tells a story of your relationship with Woodbrain and the desert. It has so many organic and eclectic touches that make my boho maximalist heart sing. It's so inspiring to watch you DIY the life you want to live, through the struggles and the pain you somehow always create something beautiful.

You’re over apologizing for a beautiful room :) we love you, we love your work, and we love that you’re back in action! Can’t wait for wood brain to come enjoy 🚪🧠

Yay, so glad to see your beautiful face, smiling! Your house is getting there and looking amazing! Thank you for being so inspirational❤Life really does suck SOMETIMES……But always remember, you are LOVED 🥰

Living in the U.K. I adore these desert homes, I could look at them all day, plants are my passion my home is filled with them, this beautiful room you have created ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ , it would be my dream bedroom, you are so creatively clever, really inspiring stuff 🤩😍😍😍xxx

You’re a very talented lady, I bet your best friend is so proud of you!

I love your decor and your plants makes the room alive!❤

That room is perfect and gorgeous. It doesn't look crowded at all, Rachel. It looks organic and lovely and warm and cozy and I bet your best friend will Love it.

Omg. Love it!!!!

You did an awesome job with that space. I love the warm vibe.

Rachel nice to see you again.😊

The room looks amazing! 😍 Well done Rachel!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍

I love it!

Rachel, always a pleasure to see you pull thru! Representing the robe-wearers! I live in my bath robe, it's my security blanket I've come to know. I do chores in it too 😆

I love all the art you put into this space and the soothing color scheme.

I loved this room, I would love staying in that room, it’s amazing.

I just lost my dog of 12+ years last month. I am a very solitary person, and he was hands-down my best friend and little baby. The world still doesn't make any sense without him. I picked up his ashes just yesterday from the vet. I still cry almost every day because I miss him so much but I see they are selfish tears. He is okay. I'm not. He hated when I was upset, and he could tell that I was about to get upset even before I did and he would be there looking at me. I know he wouldn't want me to be upset. I chant nembutsu for him every day. Anyways. I just really feel your loss and I am inspired by what you are doing and how you are transforming the pain into something. Namu Amida Butsu. I hope for your healing and good love in your life Rachel.

It is beautiful, good job

This room is a lush little jungle in the desert! All of the treasures you've lovingly placed around the space add interest, not overwhelm. You've always had a great eye for beautiful, unique curation. And when you see that a room could use a door, you simply cut one out. Bravo! People with vision are often misunderstood; don't waste your time over explaining or apologizing. Chasing a brave idea and seeing where it takes you isn't for everybody ;)

Stunningamazing as always!! You're sounding so positive about things and doing your girl proud

Love how to room turned out 🥰
