Moving into a Historical Home
My family and I are moving from 980 sq fr condo to a 1400 sq ft historical home in San Diego, CA at the end of January 2022. We have been in our current space for 18 years with 2 kids so… the move is significant. I was feeling overwhelmed thinking about how to furnish the new space and letting go of the current “stuff” which frankly is no longer our vibe. Your podcast has helped me in planning our new space. I feel confident and less overwhelmed. Love your show! I can’t want to show you our new space.

Love this podcast
I started listening this year and this is such an accessible way to approach and learn about design! All the advice and knowledge has been so helpful as I’m starting to design my own home! And I love that there are so many episodes to listen back to on almost any design topic :)

They know decorating!
I first found the DTT podcast when I was staging my home to sell and they had great tips for doing that! I’ve stayed to listen as I’m decorating my new home as well and it is well worth the listen!! Thanks ladies!!

I Love this Podcast!
This is the best podcast. Kelly and Anita have a great rapport, and they have so many practical ideas. It’s hard to believe how they just keep coming up with more. I’ve listened to a great many of the episodes and always find it very enjoyable. Thank you, Anita and Kelly!

Thank you!! Much needed bedroom refresh!!!
Your bedroom episode was well-timed for me and most appreciated! You energized me to replace my curtains and make a few other no cost tweaks in my master bedroom, and the room is much more peaceful feeling. My husband had surgery a few months ago and we have a recliner in our room that will be here as long as he needs it while he recovers, or forever if necessary. The large chair for the 6’3” guy is a decorating challenge, and combined with Christmas clutter, the vibe was depressing instead of refreshing. Now our bedroom feels like the retreat it should be, which is incredibly helpful and happiness boosting. Thank you ladies for the inspiration, ideas and sense of humor you share through your passion for homes and souls on your wonderful podcast. I enjoy every episode!

Such a gem
Perfect for the amateur decorator whether it’s just for you or, if like me, you want to learn more about design but don’t have the formal training.
I don’t know if it’s my learning style but I think everyone can appreciate a list (30 design rules) and I love how they just get to the point with the principles or tips and don’t have vague, endless conversations about design with no takeaways. I love design conversation- nothing wrong with that - but you want some kind of way to apply the principle at home. Plus I love the short vocabulary lesson at the end. Truly a podcast version of going to design school! The hosts are so charming and have great chemistry. It’s like if your neighbors or girlfriends happened to be interior designers who gave you game changer level ideas, everything from high end to HomeGoods! Keep up the good work, ladies! ❤️

Learn and Laugh!
These two make me laugh and I’ve learned so much!!!! I thought I knew quite a lot about decorating, but now I know my education was lacking. Thanks to DTT I am avoiding decorating mistakes and getting lots of laughs when listening to this fun podcast.

New home help for a non-decorator
We moved into our dream home in 2020. We went from 900 sq ft to over 3000 sq ft and I was at an absolute loss. I am NOT a decorator and have a hard time putting the things I cherish together in a beautiful way.
I started listening to the show by typing in “decorating tips” hoping to find a podcast that would help me. And to my wonderment DTT was the first and only Podcast I listened to. I listened for months while moving, unboxing, tearing down wallpaper and mowing grass.
Thank you to Kelly and Anita for helping make my house a beautiful home. It’s still in progress but what house isn’t?!
Highly recommend!!!

Practical tips and great advice
First off, love listening to these two. They have a good rapport which adds to their informative podcast. I started listening last year, when I was contemplating a first floor remodel. So grateful I did! From practical tips on creating Pinterest boards to color selection, furniture placement, and so much more. This has definitely helped me understand the process.

Timeless Advice
There’s so much I like about this podcast! Kelly and Anita provide timeless advice that applies to all styles and all budgets. They aren’t all about the latest social media trend, but more about creating the look you love that will also function well. I learn something new in every episode.

young and clueless until this podcast !
Love this podcast!! This podcast is the ONLY one I listen to regularly. As a first time home buyer/young adult I am completely clueless about design… or I was until this podcast!!! I often relisten to episodes when I am designing specific areas of my houses and I hope to set up a design consult in the future! This podcast is a must listen to!

Nola girl renovating a house
Hello! I listen to y’all on my way to work as I usually have about a 30 minute commute. I am a BCBA in New Orleans, i work with kids who have Autism and i absolutely love my job. I love listening to your episodes because they give me a lot of motivation to finish house renovations so that I can start applying your great ideas and watch my own creativity blossom. I literally laugh at your jokes when I’m in the car by myself, your personalities always lift my spirits and i hope the two of you never stop talking shop!

Endlessly entertaining and practical
I love that they talk about big and small design fixes. I love that Anita and Kelly offer two perspectives to help me learn how to design my house well but not in a cookie cutter way.

What a relief while staying home
The ladies are so fun and practical and down to earth. The basics of decorating and some finer “advanced” curriculum, mixed together Thank you for this podcast!

The girls!
I believe my husband thinks I’m really friends with Kelly and Anita. When he asks what I’m doing, it’s always something like “having coffee with the girls” “going for a walk with the girls” etc! I have been listening since the beginning and have listened to every show. Not only have I learned so much and become a better decorator but y’all have gotten me though some tough times. I used to have a job I hated and the only thing that got me through was listening to y’all while walking on my lunch break. Thank you so much, you inspire so much more than just creating a beautiful home!

These ladies are speaking my love language - design! They are fun and playful - always make me laugh. And I’m always learning from them - hello tips! This is a great show for anyone who wants to make their home be more personal and fabulous. Like having a decorator as a best friend! Can’t recommend this show enough. Listen and enjoy.

Good informative podcast but….
Good, varied content is shared about interior designing. I enjoy what I’ve learned.
BUT…
the host’s judgement on what is affordable ($130!!! for plant pruners on an HGTV Obsessed podcast interview) and other obnoxiously priced things she talks about as being affordable is utterly cringeworthy. And host’s statements about buying duplicates of dishes, pillows, decor as if it’s not a big deal is nauseating. I’ve found myself almost turning off the podcast many many times because it is so off putting. I almost deleted it once from my podcast library after one extremely egregious obnoxious statement. But I’m being selfish and need all the help I can get w interior decorating.
My take away message- try to be more aware of the things you say that give away the fact that you’re well off financially. It’s a huge enormous turn off.

The personal consult and podcast have changed my outlook in everything I do in my home!
I can’t tell you how wonderful it is to finally feel as though I am free to make my home what I want it to be. I’ve always felt like I had to follow all the decorating rules given to us by society-in my case, my family (especially my husband!). My home had become a Restoration Hardware and Pottery Barn catalog with no true personal meaning. Neutrals throughout made it feel very masculine and stale. Because of this podcast AND, especially the consultation I had with them, my home is finally becoming my sanctuary. They have guided me and given me permission to think outside the box and incorporate my own personal style. The consultation time made a huge impact on my decorating decisions in my family room and kitchen, which should be done soon! Thanks so much for giving your listeners courage, knowledge, and the push to decorate authentically!

Love These Ladies
I know we live in a time of craziness, but these two are so happy and upbeat. It’s a nice vacation for my ears. I still have boob lights, but I hope to someday have a home that lives up to their standard. :)

The best podcast for getting me from my thinking stage to actually getting my home styled. The girls each have a different approach to design that all you could ask for in decorating. Not only decorating my tips for keeping your home running efficiently. They understand our homes are a huge part of our of our heart and souls! I’ve been binge listening for two weeks!

Tip filled episodes!
Lots of good tips & interesting home topics. Binging all the episodes. Don’t always agree with some of the viewpoints but even they acknowledge that if you love it and it works with your style that’s what matters. Trends are so fleeting!

Practical Ideas
I enjoy DTT very much because Anita and Kelly present the show as if we were all just a group of friends having a chat over coffee (tea for Anita!). Their ideas are workable in real life, yet they are professional and up-to-date. Loved the episode on what looks cheap or tacky!! We need to know that stuff!

Must Subscribe for Design Enthusiasts
Somehow Anita and Kelly manage to talk about a visual subject in a way that is easy and fun to follow. Their approachable and yet very knowledgeable point of view makes this one of my favorite design podcasts. They have such great chemistry. Each episode is a delight.
