The gate on the fence of the orchard is stunning. You are so brave to have forged this beautiful life that fits you, rather than forcing yourself to fit the mold. None of us really fit it, but we sometimes think we should and we strive and wonder why we aren't happy. Bravo to all the brave souls who forge a new fulfilling, unique path. (So adorable when the kitten jumped off your back while you were painting.) Your home is lovely!

Don't worry about the shaking. I imagine myself as a neighbor stopping by to say hello, and you're generously inviting me in. I'm nervous because everything is so pretty. Furthermore, I am shaking as I look around while telling myself "don't be clumsy and break anything cause she won't invite you back!". 😄 Thanks for inviting us in. Great job!

Hello Paola: Your home has all the warmth, comfort and charm that you exude in all of your videos. The man in your life came into great fortune when you agreed to marry him, and I am certain he knows it. All the best to the two of you...and of course, your fur babies! 👍👍💜

Sweetie you are so hard on yourself. Please don't apologize for shaking or say you are sorry for how you are filming something. You have done something most people do not, you have invited strangers into your home! You share with us how to open up and be ourselves. This is much more important than how steady a video is. Thank you so much for sharing with us. I have purchased from your etsy shop a couple times and loved everything I have purchased, they are more than I ever expected. Enjoy your new home, make it yours and God Bess.

When you were talking about people who have inspired you, I remembered how you inspired me last winter. In a video which you showcased books in the bookstore that you thought were beautiful, you showed this collection of Austen novels, with this lilac cover embellished with painted flowers. I fell completely in love with the edition and slyly pointed it out to my mother, who got the hint and handed it to me on Christmas. I spent the whole day reading it. If I had never clicked on that video, I would've never seen that book, nor your channel, both which have brought me a lot of peace on hard days. So thank you :)

You are such a unique person and you, yourself look like a character straight out of a fairytale book! I love the whimsical energy you have, it's rare and your home is adorable!

What a lovely home, I just love your faerie and creative side and your pets it feels very loving and comfortable and the woods so close by is just beautiful.

Love the cherry branches both in the vase and painted on the walls, and the strawberries and lilies of the valley too!

...Paola, you have brought out a side of me, at the age of 61, that hasn't arrived, but I must strive to bring about ME and enjoy! There are really no words to express your authenticity. Thank you so much! I hope everyone in this channel had a priceless Mother's Day, I did and am grateful.

The author is not only talented, but also sweet and darling with a very soothing voice. Thank you for sharing your delightful home.

Your lovely cottage is such a reflection of your soul. Calming, joyful and 100% you. Enjoy the process!

Your small little home is like a picture out of a story. The beauty and peace that it brings is so you. Love your sweet spirit and your talents. I’m wishing you all the joy and happiness your way as you prepare a new journey in your life. Luke is so lucky to have you.

Honestly, the most beautiful woman on KZread, creating beauty and being beauty that shines from the depth of her heart and soul. Just enchanting. Her future husband and children will be so blessed with a magical life of beauty. And she shares the beauty with us. The world needs this young woman and her spirit.

Miss, My parents were homeless, and I remember searching for empty boxes of cereals to decorate the ceiling, it was he best time of my life! I am very different person today perhaps miss understood by many, I am so happy to find your, since I enjoyed creating…. Just wanted to share how happy I am for you….

Yay! This video is perfect today. Spending time unwinding with my sweet momma, and putting this on for both of us to watch and finish our morning coffee to. 💞

Their leaves remind me of someone splattering paint all over a canvas. I also love your recipes for sweets and teas. I congratulate you for following your path in life.

You have inspired me since finding your channel to decorate and make my apartment feel warm and wimsy, it has made the child inside so happy and at peace. Thank you for sharing tidbits of your life with us. 💜

This is exactly what I imagined your new home to look like, just like your little cottage but bigger. I love it dear! Can’t wait to see how you continue to decorate it this year. Congratulations on everything good on your life, you deserve it!

Very lovely home. You've chosen soft and peaceful colors. The green paint and natural stained window frames go beautifully together. Is it possible to let us know the paint color, window frame stain color and floor color. Lol. I'm decorating challenged. Haaa. It's true. Thanks for sharing. Looking forward to seeing the updates of your other rooms. Stay well in your new home. 🏡💕

I love it. I totally get what you’re doing with your space. I am doing my own renovations but not any major reconstruction work. Mostly plastering and painting and such.

Agree 💯!❤️ We love the fairy in her heart that she expresses!

As someone who'd been deeply interested in interior design my whole life, and studied it on my own for the last 2ish years - I find more value in your points of view than a lot of other places. So many things feel artificial, shallow, and fast fading and that part of the interior design world doesn't sit right with me. I love how your home is turning out. The wood tones with the green feel so cozy and beautiful.

Your vlogs is like every introverts dream...

I move house a lot and when friends first visit they always say, ‘this house looks just like you’ Jude.’ Your house looks just like you Paola, in the best of ways. I would recognise your hand (and heart) anywhere.

The beautiful and enchanting details totally overtake any shakey videography. Adore the little touches of vines, flowers, and happy little characters your imagination adds to your walls and space. Blessings to you and thank you for sharing. ❤️🌻

Everything looks beautiful; you and Luke have obviously worked very hard on making your home together and it shows.

You are so kind, modest and altruistic. A heartfelt thank you for being yourself, a rare jewel in this world ❣️❤️

All the details you put into your new home are so beautiful! Especially the folk painting around the window :) I love the teapot at 7:54 the pale blue flowers are so pretty! There is such a peaceful aura from your home :)

Max and Ruby! That was a children’s cartoon my kids watched when they were little. Anyway, your house is decorated like theirs. They were bunnies. 😊

I absolutely LOVE the natural wood trim throughout the home! Especially combined with the neutral earthy tones✨ Such a perfect little serene sanctuary of a cottage. I long to have something like this for my family one day🌿🪴💐 Thank you so much for sharing your sacred space with us🤍

The hand-painted details on the walls are giving me Rapunzel from Tangled vibes, and I love it ❤️

A house is curated into a home overtime, enjoy the journey sweet one. Congratulations on your pending wedding, blessings to you both. 🙏🌷🧚

*Absolutely beautiful home!*

This lady is amazing, and she did a fabulous job filming the panoramic view! It was perfect. I especially LOVE her soft, soothing voice, and the fact that she keeps the music super, super low in the background. So glad I subscribed to her channel. She really has a gift for painting and creating! I love what she did to her walls. Absolutely gorgeous! Thumbs up.

The rooms are so delicate, peaceful and beautiful. Keep up the great work.

Your home is such a breath of fresh air. So inspiring!

I love your home. Anyone can buy a house but it takes love and thoughtfulness to make it a home. There is a big difference I feel! Enjoy the process with your partner. Xx

You have made such a magical space, it so compliments the lovely wildness outside. I can imagine you creating forever in such a beautiful place. I know you are already very happy there as are your furry friends. Bless you for so generously sharing it all .

I love it when people express themselves in their homes. Time there is so much more memorable. This looks so cozy.

Tip for you DearHeart, if you find beautiful old hankies while thrifting. Grab them, when you have enough, you can make curtains, table runners, table clothes, runners for your dresser tops...and what ever else you can think of. Even sachets! I'm a thrifter too. And a dollar store shopper😊. My husband after getting married made me a shelf for the bathroom, to hold my bits and pieces. It was prefect, I painted it bright blue with some ceramic paints, then free handed tiny leaves and flowers all around the edges and back. And used matte gloss to set them in place. It turned out adorable. And my husband looked at and said you have talent I didn't know about...it's really lovely.😊 Things I haven't done in a long time now. Being a wife and mom of one kept me busy and now I don't have the money for a lot of the artistic things I used to do😕. And sometimes my fingers ache too much. But I do love to color . Your home is lovely just like you are.😊💟💖🐇🐈🐕🌷🌸🌷🌸🍃🍃🍃

Making your home a beautiful sanctuary that reflects your personality is such a source of happiness and joy. Congratulations on your new home. Best wishes from Toronto 🇨🇦😊💐

It looks like we’ve got a lot in common when it comes to movies and music - have you ever watched “Miss Potter”? If not I think you’d love it. It’s about Beatrice Potter (who I’m sure you know created the Peter Rabbit children’s books 😊🐰 I noticed your apron, hihi!), and being a female illustrator and entrepreneur in Victorian England, and about her life. I'm not personally much into her drawing style, but the warmth and calmness of the movie is so wonderful, and it also excites me a lot as a fellow artist entrepreneur 😄 just like you, too. Perhaps you'd like it 😊 She also craves nature and starts making books, oh my gosh it's so good.. I'm gonna watch it again 😍 Love your channel so much, you inspire my to stay true the truth of who I am - sensitive and peaceful. It honestly means the world... so thank you. So much love 🧡

My sister long years ago painted strawberries 🍓 on her woodwork in her farmhouse kitchen. It was at that time a very uncommon thing to do. I absolutely loved it , and remember it fondly. I so much enjoy the simple thing s you do.

I also feel that there lives a fairy inside me. You inspire me so much to just be yourself. Your house is lovely! Thank you for the video. I escape to a new world every time I watch one of your videos.

I didn’t think I could love anything as much as your tiny house but your new home is AMAZING 🤩. So happy to see all your special little touches that make your new home yours and eclectic. So much fun making it your own. Looks like you are having so much fun with your plants and painting on the walls. I’m so excited for you and Luke. We all have a little fairy living inside us. We just have to listen to our hearts and believe. So excited for the coming months for you 🪅🪄🪅

You and your fiancé have created a beautiful home. You are blessed to have each other.

Love the beauty of your talk and your decorative ideas... ♥️ Your life is a dream of mine.

Beautiful to create such a life to feel safe physically and emotionally. Havnt found it yet. One day I hope! ❤

Thank you for giving me permission to decorate my home in the style of my imagination. I have been afraid of being judged, looking whacky, whimsical or odd, but you have given me confidence to start on my main room. I have considered the style for a long while, but never been brave enough to put it into practice. You have given me courage!

Whimsey, the space you are creating is stunning. The personal touches are so special, you have an enchanting home in the making. Keep the fairy within you flittering here and there. Pat from Oregon Coast.

when you said you needed a sofa.... I immediately saw an old iron daybed filled with lots of layers and textures of old linens, lace and different pillows. Also was happy to see Miss Potter was on your list of favorite movies. Every time they showed her upstairs bedroom, I would swoon. I would imagine myself living in that cozy little sanctuary at the top of the stairs. It was such a magical space which would foster such inspiration and creativity. Pure heaven.

So lovely! You have created such a beautiful cozy cottage. Very peaceful and warm colors.

Gosh. I wish some amazing fairy sposor will come along and in a fun trade of sorts in integrity, help you with a lively inviting living room couches and such...thanks for opening your home. It's gorgeous

Your home is looking cozy. The land looks nice as well. I pray this part of you doesn’t change, that no one will ever take away your peace & soul. That the world will let you be just like you are for a long time. 💜

I’m a fairly new subscriber and haven’t commented on any of your posts until now, despite being enchanted by all of them. But, I felt like I had to reach out today, because I have developed such a strong kinship with you & your journey. I too experienced something devastating at 21, but it was so heartbreaking that it broke my soul. I simply survived for years, until I finally received the help I needed to move past it. As a result, it took me decades to actually realize who I am and what I needed in my life. Finally, at 64, I can finally say that I have accepted the real me and embraced what I need to feel safe, content & fulfilled, which is a home full of sunshine, flowers, bunnies, and birds. My own “English Garden.” The fact that you’ve experienced and overcome trauma and pain at such a young age, is incredible & inspiring. The fact that as a result of the pain you lived through, you have found such beauty in life is almost miraculous. And the fact that you are able to share your journey in such a gentle, encouraging and loving way is beautiful! And your art resonates with that beauty! Thank you for allowing us a peak through a window into your soul, because yours is so precious!💞

I officially watched all of your videos starting from the beginnings of this channel! Your art was a constant companion for me in the past few months, and it gave me so much peace and inspiration in the middle of moving to a new country. Thank you for that! :)

your new home is heartwarmingly beautiful! i adore the touches you've made. i'm wishing you and your future husband the most joyous journey through life together. the moment you say 'i do' it takes you from couple to *family* and it's such an assuring, lovely feeling. it was so sweet watching the animals climb the tree with you! this video was what my tired heart needed this week. Thank you.

Your home is simply beautiful. I love what you have done with it and your artistic touches are adorable. Hoping you make many happy memories there ❤

You are absolutely right about the importance of feeling safe. Your little kitty is growing up so beautifully!!

Your cottage in the woods is absolutely my dream too! I love how you have decorated. I feel buying second hand special found items that you fix up, makes it more personalized and cozy. I have many pieces of furniture that I have repurposed and made my own. ❤️
