Design Regrets in Our Own Homes | Lessons and Embracing Our Mishaps
from Dear Alice | Interior Design · host Alice Lane
We were discussing this topic and when we started listing these out, we realized it’s proof that we lived. We leaned hard into a trend, it’s the Asymmetrical haircut, and a part of us is like “No, respect that girl that was just trying her darndest!” But was it a good idea? Probably not. Listen in as we tell about our various design decisions we made early on that we later came to realize was a mistake. Intro 0:00 What we’re obsessed with lately 1:00 Our design regrets 7:55 Sue’s design regret - grout 8:25 Bigger laundry room 11:10 Brass fixtures 14:40 The exterior finish and paint color 16:10 Pergola 19:00 The range in Cori’s house 22:20 Garage storage 28:40 Crooked mantle 37:20 “I feel like we wanted to do this episode because I don’t know if somebody maybe asked us to do it, but just to illustrate we all have regrets. Those of us who do it professionally, we still have mishaps. We trust the system too much because we do it all day, and then we work too fast, and then we forget something, or a few of these things where we’re saying to just fix it right the first time.” 38:45 https://www.instagram.com/alicelaneinteriors/ https://www.instagram.com/alicelanehome/ https://alicelanehome.com/ https://www.facebook.com/AliceLaneHome https://www.pinterest.com/alicelanehome/ https://www.youtube.com/alicelanehomecollectionsaltlakecity News Letter: https://manage.kmail-lists.com/subscriptions/subscribe?a=HZENWY&g=PFcqV5 Learn more about your ad choices.
