Color Drenching Deep Dive | Next Time on Dear Alice

So this year we're doing something a little different. We’re taking our holiday episode and our listener questions episode and merging them together into one. We pulled everyone on our instagram feeds and this is what we got back. We got a ton and some we won't be able to answer, but we’re going to be answering a lot of them. You can also find a lot of answers to some of these questions last year/in our previous episodes.  The first sign of the season 2:30 Listener questions during the holidays 7:20 Naked trees 8:35 The top of our trees 12:45 Standard, icicle colored, or other? 15:25 How to style a tree with eclectic ornaments 20:15 Incorporating family mementos to Christmas decor 26:45 Best ideas to stock the gift drawers 32:30 Toddler proofing 35:20 Keeping it elegant 36:50 “I also love the amber oil.

In this episode we talk about the trend of the year, which we saw coming down Runway for sure in 2024 and some in 2023, and it’s called the Color Drench. This episode will unpack what this is and where to do it, how to do it, how we’re doing it, and we’re gonna share 5 projects that have been shot. We’ve been practicing this for probably the last 9 years and we didn’t know what it was called back then, but now we do and it’s awesome.  Halloween candy 1:00 The trend of the year 3:00 Our favorite colors and where to color drench 4:00 Is your favorite color best for wearing or just to look at? 8:00 The definition of the Color Drench 13:00 Locations for color drenching 23:30 A bedroom one of our designers did 27:00 The mud room, pantry, and butler’s pantry 34:00 Rachel and Drew Parcel’s library 41:20 “As color drenching goes well beyond the simple accent wall like a monochromatic fantasy, the trend is all about a full-on single hue explosion across all surface levels in a room. In addition to the walls and ceilings, many objects and insulations such as window treatments and light fixtures get the same color treatment. However, a single color treatment doesn’t mean monotony. When color drenching a room, many designers opt to play around with the paints’ finish, mixing them both gloss and matte across a variety of textures such as wood or plaster to create greater interest.” 13:10 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 https://www.alicelaneinteriordesign.com/interior-design-service-podcast-campaign https://alicelanehome.com/pages/home-furnishing-podcast-campaign News Letter:  https://manage.kmail-lists.com/subscriptions/subscribe?a=HZENWY&g=PFcqV5

This is episode 3 in a 3 part series of us talking about wallpapers. This week we talk about the textured wallpapers and the grasscloths. There is a special place for grasscloths and however you want to think about it in your mind and apply it to your home, or multiple homes if you have them, we’re going to talk about that today.  Halloween 2:00 The closet 10:30 Powder bath grasscloth 16:25 Primary suite in Dallas 22:00 Ceilings 23:50 Jessica’s living room 24:45 Vinyl silk grade 28:45 Silk 30:20 Project in the mountains of Utah 34:00 Metallics 35:00 “This is Rachel Parcel’s closet and the backs of her closet wall, every bay, is hit with this Osborn and Little Paper, and it’s silvered and has a wave to it. It is really dimensional and I don’t know how else to describe it, it’s almost leaf-like, but it looks like it bends in the back of her closet.” 10:35 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 https://www.alicelaneinteriordesign.com/interior-design-service-podcast-campaign https://alicelanehome.com/pages/home-furnishing-podcast-campaign News Letter:  https://manage.kmail-lists.com/subscriptions/subscribe?a=HZENWY&g=PFcqV5

This is episode 2 in a 3 part series of us talking about wallpapers. Today we talk about patterns and what the most common things we see are, like the paisley pattern you saw everywhere back in the 90s, and then we also discuss murals and go over visuals, which you can totally go see yourself if you watch us on our YouTube channel.  Patterns we just cannot do anymore 1:45 Patterns are less expensive than murals 8:45 Some examples of complicated installations 12:50 Kravit, a lovely client 21:00 Coastal contemporary house 26:50 Toile 28:20 Schumacher bathroom 30:00 “You can’t just measure the square footage and think like, OK that equals the amount of square footage that’s in this roll, especially with the pattern because there is a calculation of how much waste you need, dependent on the pattern. He can even give me a fast number because it depends on the pattern and the space and each time it’s different. Just know that you’re gonna have a lot of waste, but if you want it installed correctly, it’s part of the game to make sure it matches correctly.” 36:05 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 https://www.alicelaneinteriordesign.com/interior-design-service-podcast-campaign https://alicelanehome.com/pages/home-furnishing-podcast-campaign News Letter:  https://manage.kmail-lists.com/subscriptions/subscribe?a=HZENWY&g=PFcqV5

We have a really fantastic set of episodes for you guys. This is episode 1 of a series of wallpaper episodes after we were working in the craftings segment of the podcast and realized there are so many ideas, thoughts, and things to unpack about wallpapers, so we’re breaking this up into 3 episodes: Murals, Patterns, and Textures. Those of you who have been wanting to get into the wallpaper scene are going to love this episode because we’re going to be sharing our favorite resources, including thoughts from our favorite wallpaper installer. We’re going to be sharing projects and showing the different types of papers to help you illustrate this, which you’ll be able to see over on our YouTube channel.  Wallpaper is in 2:00 Our ideal scenes 5:30 Accent walls and what to do 11:10 Choosing the accent paint color 18:00 Great lines to use 21:00 Another great wallpaper 30:45 Gucci 34:55 Porter Teleo 41:20 “We would put our paint deck down on that sample from Gracie to choose the exact shade of blue to paint the moldings if you wanted that color to continue, if you were doing moldings with it. In the case of Rachel’s she has white moldings, but she also has white floral trees in this scene, so that looks really great. And then in Isla Rose’s bedroom, she has a white field, so we did white crown and base in this room.” 18:15 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 https://www.alicelaneinteriordesign.com/interior-design-service-podcast-campaign https://alicelanehome.com/pages/home-furnishing-podcast-campaign News Letter:  https://manage.kmail-lists.com/subscriptions/subscribe?a=HZENWY&g=PFcqV5
