Vintage is not only more soulful, but much more sustainable. Thank you for promoting this plant-loving form of recycling, Drew!

I think 75-80% of my home decor is thrifted, repurposed, vintage. antique. I love the stories and memories behind each item. Hunting for great finds is therapeutic for me. I love watching your thrifting videos too!

“Lone Fox”. Is by far my favorite channel for several reasons: the content, the ideas and quality of the work and styling, Drew is the best creator, stylist, influencer but the overall kindness and encouragement with a non-judgmental yet respective personality is why I keep watching. I feel uplifted and inspired after watching one of Drew’s videos . 🥰GraceHolly from Ohio

As the manager of an Antique Shop…Thank You for tip 5! Preloved items have so much more character than mass produced items. ❤

I love feed and wax too, but the only thing to remember when you use it, is that if you think you might want to change the stain or tone of the wood color down the line, the wax is very difficult to penetrate. So, if you ever want to change anything about the color of the wood, you have to basically sand the entire piece in order to remove the wax. Just a good thing to know. 😊

Vintage is the way to go! Definitely set your Facebook marketplace location to rich areas for when seniors are looking to downsize. I managed to score these antique teak art deco dining chairs for $20 each. The old lady was telling me that her father bought the dining set in 1917 which would make these chairs over a century old, but they look brand new!

Hey Drew, I wanted to share something with you about that stuff you use on the wood. If you use a paint brush specifically made for chaulk paint, there's a larger one with a pointed tip you'll not use as much product as it will be on the brush & not a cloth it's easier to get into the areas that fingers can't. Store the brush in a zip lock for next project & it's ready to go .

I love the way your house is coming together. Can't believe it's been a year since you bought it. I love your style.

[carolebritain]

I’m at a complete disconnect from most of your suggestions because a $500 chair you consider a great deal and that would be my entire budget for my entire large apartment. Not all of us have that kind of money to drop on vintage and antiques, etc. I did however, on your recommendation get some feed and wax and that stuff is brilliant. You are completely my favourite decorator and designer. I love your stuff.

[paulas_lens]

To buy vintage or second hand, especially from someone who has died - is to honor that person's loves and hopes, imo.
It shows reverence to their life.

[kristishreeve]

You are by far the best ( and my favorite) decorator out there! I love that your decor is unique, and your home doesn’t look like everyone else’s.🤩

I have used the feed and wax for years. If you have an ornate section on a piece of furniture use a stencil brush to push the product into the intricate areas. I also have used it on my cast iron bistro table on my back porch. It darkens the black and gives it a little protection from the elements. Great product.

Drew, I am SO loving your home! You are my #1 favorite Youtuber! I follow some design gurus (including Arvin Olano), a couple of fashion Youtubers, several travel experts, and a couple of perfume reviewers. Yours is the only one that I'm counting down the days until your next video, and I DEFINITELY notice when you're "late". lol. I literally don't notice that with any other Youtuber.
At any rate, I came here to say THANK YOU for explaining about lighting. As a designer and lighting specialist, lighting is about the only thing that I will tell people "no, you can't have that" if they try to go below 2700K or above 3000K (K stands for "Kelvin") for residential purposes. The sad thing is that most big box stores tend to carry HORRID lighting in the 4000K-5000K lighting, marketing it as "Daylight". I'm not quite sure why that is, but they are so blue that they wash the color out of everything in your house, including the humans! You spend so much time and money curating a perfectly beautiful home and then, BAM, you throw it all away with the selection of your light bulbs. So sad.
To clear up another misconception, a higher Kelvin temperature does not equal a brighter lightbulb. It has to do with color only. Let's go back to choosing those warmer tones to make your house feel cozier and less cold. Even with grey tones in your home (perhaps ESPECIALLY with grey tones in your home) you have to add in some warmer elements or you'll wind up feeling like you're living in a cold and sterile environment. Thank you. Rant over. :)

Such great tips and these aren't just plucked from the design sky, but a lot Drew has shown throughout his own home.

[marietamura]

I still love what you're doing with the house. We all need to be creative within our own budget. You've inspired me to be more open to vintage. It takes time to curate.

[bareknee]

Your hair, your eyes and your jewelery match the decor in the background of this video ! Youre a true professional and I love your videos.

[marymarks]

Much more fun to look at vintage than all new stuff. I'd rather achieve a look that has been curated over time instead of a what's in decor store and is hot at the moment. Decorate with things that make you happy and of course that look well together. TFS and Happy Friday everyone!

[druv]

I learned this from a woman that worked for Southerbys.
Got a scratch. Use those round tins of wax shoe polish to match the wood. Buff then use your polish.

[patriciafuchs]

Great tip on muting wall color. De intensify color in walls up or down. I love thrifting. You are so generous with ideas!
