Absolutely gorgeous, would love to know if I can get similar items in Australia!
As a plant lady myself, I got some really inspiring ideas! I love your videos a lot and please keep going! Putting some positive vibes out there!
The plant ledge is gorgeous
Ratan is supposed to be able to breathe and take in water, when you paint it, it will not be able to and then it breaks.
I love your channel! I love your style! One day Ill be able to afford to make over my space like this!!! Thank you for the constant inspirations!
One of your absolute best! Keep on doing you – ignore the rest!
So gorgeous!!!! I’m in Rhode Island. Please come this way and do my home. Always great job!!!!
This is a great makeover but it stresses me out that the cacti are so far from the windowwwww
Amazing 😻
Just beautiful 💕
looks so pretty and so comfortable – perfect!
Great room.
Wow, huge difference. Especially those wall sconces add so much warmth- awesome Job Alexandra.
I love how much the dog loves this.
I love your style and taste so much
This is intense! I think I would have grouped the plants in groups of 3’s
Gorgeous! I want this space!
The woman should not have been standing on the sofa with her shoes on.
That’s very disrespectful.
The woman should have use a step ladder to hang the picture.
What did you lite the candle with?
The problem you had with the palm, I have the same problem with those ikea pots as none of them have even bottoms.
I have loved all of your work. Keep it going; love your videos.
This was an amazing makeover! I LOVED that huge plant! great job!
SO GOOD!❤️❤️❤️
Awesome plants n mkovr😍😍..
Stay Blessed Stay Happy Guys 😘🤗🥰🧚♀️🦄🌈🧿
Well done & Diffinately good reactions to others opinions honest yet kept it Real…koodoos
That is a lot of plants to take care of.
I think this is now officially my favorite makeover from you. I love everything about it, but I know that if I ever tried to replicate it, those beautiful plants would all be dead within a month (or maybe less!). I’ll just keep coming back to watch this video and live vicariously through it.
Great job! Her joy made me cry.
This is a dream living room!!!
Yes we want to see LOTS of LOTTIE! 😂❤️❤️
Gorgeous
Please, please… what was the name of that large plant that you brought in near the end of the video that was placed right by the sofa. Gorgeous! This room really speaks to me. Alexandra you did a beautiful job.
Beautiful space the plants make it perfect. Great job!
Can we have the link for the incense holder please?
A truly stunning makeover. I love it! 💕
Beautiful space and the plants look good but that window seating both levels begging for lounging, pillows, reading nook etc. 🙂 Magical little area by those gorgeous windows.
This is my goal for my entire place 😍
That was a gorgeous makeover
Luv luv luv ur decorating ideas, totally awesome. If I had money to pay for a makeover I certainly would. While hanging the large walk art over the sofa. Ur employee had her shoes on the customer sofa 😲. That wonderful Hugh! Plant was fabulous and went well. 💜 🌺
It’s so beautiful!!! You are truly talented!! I’m obsessed with home design and it’s hard to make it perfect for every clients style. You absolutely ROCK IT EVERY TIME!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
