On todayâs episode weâre gonna take the intimidation out of a fun spring task and help you create front porch planters that wow. We have a very special guest on the show, Becky Nyman, who is Sueâs go-to person whenever she has any questions on gardening and plants. Sheâs a master gardener who has owned her own businesses and has been in the space for over 30 years. This time of year you see a lot of women dragging their pots into the nursery or garden shop to help them get their porch planters potted. Becky is gonna teach us how to make these decorative planters porch worthy.
Intro 0:00Meet Becky 2:20Picking your pot 5:55How deep the soil should be 13:00Paying attention to the standup tags 19:10Do what is pleasing to the eye 26:00Different combinations 30:00Favorite spiller 35:30âPicking your pot is probably the most important thing that you want to do. You want to pick a pot that has drainage in it. Water can kills your plants faster than anything, and a lot of people donât realize that. Overwatering kills plants faster than letting them dry out.â 5:56

âHow do you help clients make design decisions?â
âAre built-ins always a good idea?â
âCan you help me decorate around my short ceilings?â
On this episode of Dear Alice, the hosts circle up to answer the latest batch of listener questions, and - spoiler alert! - there are some good ones.
Join Jess, Suzanne and Cori for your favorite conversation of the week!
What our process is for coming up with ideas 9:00Strategy for built-ins 18:15Incorporating millwork 22:25Shoe molding 29:40Strategies for a coastal home to not feel like a beach house 33:30Decorating with short ceilings 37:45Fireplace mantle 42:15Keeping the integrity of specific home styles 44:30âI like my ceilings. Like right now, my ceilings are all the same color, whateverâs happening on the wall of that room. So in my public areas, theyâre white. My floor is white and the ceilingâs white, itâs all the same finish, so it just feels continuous. Thereâs no stopping and starting. It really stretches the eye and kinda fakes it out that Iâm not being drawn to a contrasting line or a colored wall is meeting up with a flat white on the ceiling. It keeps going and is just the best trick.â 39:10

This week we have Rob Corcoran on the podcast, who is a real estate expert and has been a resident real estate agent for 24 years. One of our most successful podcasts of 2023 was one where we had a real estate expert come on, so we felt it would be great to do it again as people love it. The market is constantly changing, so Jess called Rob. He built a high end boutique that he sold in 2015 and kept the relocation division of the company, and then founded Influence Relocation, which has now expanded to over 50 markets across the USA from Miami to Alaska.
Intro 0:00Buyer confidence and the housing market right now 1:55Market trends and economic indicators 5:00Rates and credit 11:00Can young people afford a home? 14:00Do we still see mega mansions?

So if you plan on buying a home and only being around for say 3 years, I would advise you probably not to purchase. You could get bitten to shorts on that if you need to sell or get relocated by your company, whatever happens in your life, the odds are you might be paying to get rid of your home.â 49:40

In this weekâs episode we are doing re-upholstering or refinishing vs buying new. This is an age-old debate where some people donât think itâs worth going through the trouble of refinishing old items, but others see it as an effective way to make their items look new while also preserving maybe some of that vintage touch said item might convey. Donât think youâre doing this to save money, but rather to preserve an older item that has special meaning to you.
Intro 0:00Re-upholstering vs buying new 3:25Fabric prices for upholstery 8:30There are ranges in cost 15:40A time the investment was worth it 20:00âIt adds up with all of our projects. Once you really stare at the numbers, it just all adds up, so just know that youâre gonna spend more than you thought to cover everything, so just make sure itâs something you really, really want.â 11:44

Tune in this week to hear us give answers to more listener questions! We have people asking about how they can improve the design of their front door and alter the side lights or windows, how to mix wood tones like in a bedroom or dining room, what the ratio of mirrors to art in a home should be, what to do about the finish for interior and exterior door knobs and hinges, and a few other fun questions. Join us today to hear what we have to say!
Intro 0:00Level up your front door 11:10Dos and donâts of mixing wood tones 16:30Ratio of mirrors to art in a home 21:00Finish for interior and exterior door knobs and hinges 24:15Built-in shelves and coloring 27:30Display your kids artwork 34:00Biggest misconceptions or blindspots in purchasing home furnishings 38:10âIt depends on your preference operationally too, like if itâs something that youâre just gonna swing open and you never use that, except when guests come over and youâre using the mudroom entrance, and you just want it for aesthetics, beautiful. But just know that one is usually gonna stay closed and one is gonna be operative, and is that wide enough for people to come through? Or do you have to swing them open both times?â 12:24

This week we wanted to talk about some trends we saw pop up in an Elle Decor article and we feel like we wanna fight back on some of these things they say are a big deal. So weâre going to break down this article and break down/debunk, or agree with some of these kitchen and bath trends. All of us, both who are hosting and listening to the podcast need a moment to figure out whatâs true and whatâs not because sometimes people are reporting on things and maybe have only asked one source, so we want to make sure that we are giving you our best information based on what weâre seeing since weâre on the front lines of design. We want you to be well equipped before you go and make these really expensive decisions based on what you read in an article.
Intro 0:00Breaking down the article 9:00High gloss walls vs texture 10:10Brown 13:15Terracotta takeover 15:20Is bouclĂ© here to stay? 20:00Curves meet straight lines 23:30High tech lighting 26:50Alternative materials will be the standard 29:40Revival of Victorian era details 33:30Layered understated lighting 36:40Warm rich colors 37:50High drama marble and stone 38:40Butlerâs pantry and storage galore 39:55Outdoor kitchens in connection to nature 42:30Induction cooktops 44:30âThereâs nothing more romantic than a pizza oven like, I think theyâre so cute and itâs so fun to make homemade pizzas with your kids, itâs so much funâ âWe did it last night. We just got a pizza oven and have just been using it way too much. Itâs like making dinner, what we have to do anyway, but then itâs an activity at the same time. Itâs memory making.â 43:58

Today we are talking about how you can find your own niche and cultivate your personal style. This is a podcast we feel everybody wants to know as theyâre trying to figure out who they are when theyâre trying to make these massive decisions for a home, whether youâre a new build, remodel, or maybe youâre just furnishing, it really needs to tie back to who you are, how you use that space, what nostalgic strings you want to pull, depending on if you really are sentimental. We keep seeing this topic pop up for people everywhere and have even listened to a couple of podcasts on this in fashion to really understand what some of the points are that people are making to help us cultivate our own style, so this is gonna be a fun one.
0:00 IntroThe age of developing opinion 4:20Feeling like you have imposter syndrome 27:00Putting together an outfit for fashion week 31:45Coriâs method 37:00Who do you aspire to be? 40:45Do what you want and donât care about what Karen thinks 46:10âSo I go to the plumbing store and Iâm like âOK, I like that suite, I think this is the finish Iâll go with.â and then I put that actual faucet in there with the tile, with the cabinetry that Iâm thinking and Iâm like âYep, thatâs good. Send that over to the cabinet maker.â and then Iâll get my hardware. Itâs really easy. Iâll always try and figure out my art because thatâs important to me too because I know thatâs a part of my style. Thatâs a big North Star for me.â 30:20

Today we are going to put all the fundamental design principles into one episode. We often give you guys little bits of information, such as you should hang your chandelier over your dining table, this height to this height, hereâs the range. We thought we should do an episode for you guys where when you are finally ready to make a remodeling move, or maybe youâre rearranging your furniture this year, youâll know what to do with spacing and dimensions. Youâre probably all going to be working on some little project because you love interiors. So do we. Weâre all ready to make a move, which may just be moving furniture from one room to another, but weâre going to give you dimensions that you need to know. Make sure to bookmark this episode because youâre going to want to come back to it in the future again and again in your lifetime to make sure youâre getting the spacing right.
All of your pathways need at least 36 inches 7:30Cocktail table - 18 inches 12:15Rugs 14:15TV viewing heights 15:40Kitchen 18:30Bathrooms 29:50Lighting 37:15Fireplaces 43:20Art 46:00Drapes 49:15âOtherwise the cocktail table just feels like itâs out in the middle of the room and nobody can use it for what itâs intended forâŠOr you have to stand up to walk forward while youâre crouched to put your drink down, and your quads are burning by the time you get to the cocktail table! No really, you go in those homes and the cocktail table is sitting on a 4x6 rug in the middle of the room, and youâre like âWhat!?â If you learn nothing else today, at least learn where your cocktail table goes.â 13:13

This is a topic that came in from one of our listeners, which we thought was a great question and perfect to focus on in this episode this week. Weâve been at this for 4 years and feel like weâve covered it all, but weâre having such a good time that we wanna keep the party going, so feel free to send us any questions, topics, or even guests that you want on, which you can send to [email protected].
Intro 0:00Our free design service and a review 1:00What are our favorite small spaces? 3:10Painting stencils 8:30Be insanely interesting in a small space 16:00What to do with the ceiling 24:00Real living finishes 32:00Hardware 37:10 The mirrorâs edge 42:40Opinionated marble 43:30Human element and displaying your collections 48:45âThe next thing we have is real living finishes. This is the most luxurious thing. Weâre talking about using real stone, real marble. Weâre not using porcelain countertops that have marble stamped onto them so that you think that theyâre marble and when you feel them, youâre like âSomethings not rightâŠâ Whenever you can use an honest material, real stone, real wool carpet, real countertop material, real flooring material, real woodâŠHonest materials are gonna make your space look more luxurious.â 32:05

We have a very special guest with us this week named Krissa Rossbound, who is a veteran and the Senior Style and Design Editor for Traditional Home Magazine, and we are giddy to have her here. We discuss topics such as how the current state of this country and the education system doesnât favor art or prioritize helping people develop their own personal style, so itâs a journey on which one has to go the extra length in order to discover for themselves. Listen to how we discuss traditional design and how to go all about it in todayâs market.
Intro 0:00Working at Traditional Home 1:00About Krissa and her journey 4:00Cultivating personal style 7:10What separates Trad Home from other publications 18:00Difference between publication print and online presence 23:20Being featured in print 25:35The white kitchen 33:00How far ahead traditional home is working 37:20Accessing different magazines 42:00Email for Traditional Home 45:50What people should spend their money on 51:40Finding a great photographer 60:30âSomething that Iâve learned to do over time is really edit myself and learn to pause for a moment, enjoy what Iâm looking at, realizing I really donât have to take this home with me. Iâm going to look at it wherever itâs displayed and maybe take a picture of it and remember it that way, but I donât have to bring it home with me because you do that and then sometimes it just doesnât work, or you didnât really actually want it, and I think that hearkens back to that idea of understanding your personal style.â 13:25

Today we are doing listener questions, which we always enjoy because we get to see how you guys are living, what problems youâre facing, and we get to help you answer them, which is kind of why Dear Alice was born. Dear Alice is our take on Dear Abby, which is an old advice column that was written, and we are actually doing that exact thing right now for interior design. You guys are sending in pictures now, which really helps us to better know how to be more informative.
Intro 0:00The worst date we ever had 1:30Keep things cohesive or refinish? 9:40Beautifully designing entry and foyer 12:25Helping the living room warm, inviting, and functional 17:20Brazilian Cherry flores and bleaching 24:10Brand and color of Jessicaâs siding shingles 30:45How to add more romance to your home 33:00âWhen you do refinish the floors on the upper level, they might be different colors because the years, and the sunshine, and everything on those 2 inch floors maybe two years earlier, because maybe youâre not gonna get to that renovation stairs for a couple of years, but itâs on another plane, itâs on another level. Youâve gotta get it right when youâre doing it because nobodyâs gonna go back and refinish floors.â 11:40

Today we have guest Marvin Wilkinson who has the most fabulous store in the Denver Design District and Scottsdale. He has just the top shelf brands and with him you can find a secret tunnel into a magical world of offerings only offered to designers and we consider Marvin as âEl Presidenteâ of this world. We know him because he is one of our reps and educates us designers on whatâs newest, whatâs best, textiles, wallpapers, de Gournay, etc. Marvin is an artist at heart, a curator of beauty, and incredibly dynamic, so Suz insisted that he be on the podcast because people are gonna eat him up.
Intro 0:00About Marvin 1:00How he started 5:30Where to save and where to splurge 11:00The difference between Gracie and De Gournay wallpaper 13:45Favorite up and coming brands 17:40The best show 19:10Whatâs new, whatâs next 22:30Developing your relationships 32:30Follow through and follow up 35:45What have the past 30 years taught you? 38:45âI really need to hear what you are looking for instead of me just automatically thinking I know what youâre looking for. I think thatâs really important for working with a design community. I think just being able to communicate properly and pull stuff out of other people and try to get their information and what their needs are, I think is really important.â 33:02

Weâre gonna fight it out a bit today on this podcast episode. This is a continuation of our episode from last week and itâs just our listenerâs comments when we polled our Instagram audits. We wanted to get to these since you guys took the time, so thatâs what weâre doing today. We discuss the various designer styles you see here in Utah and which ones we agree with or do not agree with, but also thereâs a lot of good in having variety. âBe effortless. Be believableâŠâ âDonât try so hard. I think that goes for anybody.â
Intro 0:00Design services 1:00Best meal 5:10Other designersâ styles in Utah that we agree or disagree with 8:1590s oak cabinets in the kitchen and not looking 90s 14:10Where to put marble 18:30Where to save vs where to splurge 22:45Open floor plan and tall ceiling vs cozy and separate spaces 30:55Karate chopping pillows 37:05âToday the cabinetry goes to the ceiling, or thereâs a soffit with crown molding, but thereâs no longer the dust collection. Nobody has done honey oak since the 90s. I donât know if itâs gonna come back or not. Our oak came around again and it came more grayed, or ceruse, or toned down, but we have better lacquers today that donât yellow the woods like they did in the 90s.â 15:01

Your hosts here on Alice lane have different opinions from each other. Weâve gotten some questions in and we find that we feel differently about these things and felt like maybe we should fight it out for you guys. We decided to just let it out and see what happens and we will still remain friends afterward. One example of something we talk about is having the TV above the fireplace and Cori says he has his TV above the fireplace, which Sue and Jess definitely disagree with style wise, but respect that he has made that decision.
Intro 0:00An awesome review and most embarrassing moment 1:20The TV above the fireplace mantle 12:30Theater rooms 18:00Kids sleeping with parents in bed 24:50Pools and jacuzzis 28:10 Kids toys 33:30Living room 40:00Engineered hardwood 45:10âI personally have a sand and finish floor meaning we went and bought the wood planks, white oak, installed them all, water popped the grains, stained it, all the different layers of lacquer, the tedious process of doing a sand and finish floorâŠnow everything is perfectly engineered. You get a perfectly finished, baked product in a factory where you donât have to do it on site with all the chemicals.â 45:20

Today we are talking about the 5th wall, which we define as the ceiling. Itâs a controversial thing because some people consider the floor to be the 5th wall and the ceiling as the 6th, but thatâs not what we think. The ceiling is something we strongly feel can really set rooms apart in design, and create a lot of energy and magic surrounding whatâs happening up above the head. Join us as we discuss the various ways weâve incorporated the 5th wall into our many projects weâve done over the years.
Worst or funniest gift youâve been given 2:45The 5th wall 12:00Aligning with existing architecture 21:50Paint 24:25Finish work 26:15Barbie house project 31:20âWe had ceilings with a lot of eaves in it. This is Tan Franceâs closet and after setting this for quite some time, you can see the wall height didnât start until way down here, like 2 and a half feet, so weâre all pitches and it only made sense to treat the ceiling like the wall and wrap that entire room in stripes. It felt tented, and then we were able to bring in a mirror that went 2 stories up from the stairwell and bounced back all of that around the space.â 18:48
