I love my plantation shutters. They are like furniture for your windows. Mine are wooden. They last forever. Expensive up front but you can change your room many times and colors without the added expense of doing expensive window treatments each time. I love the look of them from the street view. I would think that all interior decorators would not like them - less income for them., I like the way they function also.

Julie,
Thank you for making these videos. I have been in my home for about 3 years and I am just now designing the decor of my space. It felt like a daunting task at first. Videos like these are VERY helpful. The picture examples you include in your videos help me a great deal as I am a visual learner. Looking forward to your other videos.

Julie, I just discovered your channel last week. What a wealth of information you provide. My husband and I have been at odds for years with our design tastes. He agreed to watch this video and he really enjoyed it. We agree more than we thought. As a teacher your delivery is right on point to keep your audience engaged. Your personal style radiates your inner beauty. Thank you. I will be watching and looking for more content.

Your videos are amazing. During the last few rough months you have taught me sooo much! We have had to decorate our new home alone, but with your videos we are slowly getting through it! Window treatments have been the hardest! Thank you so very much for what you do, it’s really appreciated.

Very informative. I learned a lot. Thank you fir taking the time to explain all the terms and differences.

Julie you are one of the few decorators who actually reply. Kindly offer your suggestion for a 22-year-old young man's small bedroom. There are two windows. One on one wall the other on the adjacent wall. One window has the heater underneath. The look we are trying to achieve is elegant and modern. One wall is painted dark gray. Thank you.

I wish I could afford you. I am locked into indecision. I want a lovely decorated home for once in my life. I'm 66 yr old and I want my last brain functioning years to be soothed by a beautiful home setting

Hi Julie, I recently finished an addition to my house and I used the colors you recommended in your neutral color video. It looks awesome!!!! I'm so happy I saw your video before I chose the colors !!. Now I will certainly apply your window treatment info for my curtains. Thanks a lot!!

[leeleeloveshurdcrew]

Thank you so much for your help. I’m a new homeowner that built my home from the ground up & I was lost to what I wanted especially with all the options. You made it so much easier for me. Thank you!

[trinarussell]

I found the right person to give me ideas about curtains.

[florenceong]

Love all your videos. Especially the one incorporating Feng Shui in home decor. Thank you

[vivianaperezpla]

I live in Florida, for me curtains doesn’t work to much dust, I’m rather for shutters, that I love it, and is very easy to clean.

[blueredlisa]

We just purchased a new home and my husband suggested plantation shutters or wood blinds. We have wood blinds now, and they are a pain to clean. I am going to show him your video. Thank goodness I found your guide!

[susandenniscook]

OHhhh Julie! I couldn’t agree with you more! I absolutely hate plantation shutters and blinds! Never are they something I’d install in a house. All the reasons you listed are exactly why I am not a fan! And I am also so glad you started off explaining about “drapes” being a verb and “drapery panels” being the proper term. It has always bothered me when I heard people using the term incorrectly. So glad to have someone be brave enough to say it to the world!

[heeeeyjai]

Thank you so much for this video I want to cry 😭 I purchased my home in March; the previous owner had not updated since decades ago so I have drawstring drapery hardware in the living room and had no idea where to begin! I love your ideas and needed this as a visual to get me started. I’ve had the paper shades up since I moved in ☹️ wish I could send you pictures for more help. Just subbed! I loved your input in this video and welcome your feedback! 💓🙏🏽

[stephaniegarten]

Why am i just now seeing this! Wonderful, knowledgeable, expert advice. Easy to understand, loved this. Smart lady. Thank you

[allisonweaver]

We are building a new house and I have been struggling with the endless possibilities of window treatments! This video has helped tremendously. Thank you!

[darlenejones]

So happy you mentioned shudders. I was considering installing shudders in my breakfast nook because in the afternoon/evening it gets so hot in that area. Now I have to rethink that decision and come up with a better solution. Thanks for this informative video . Any advise would be greatly appreciated😉
