Welcome to the Season 7 Finale of Decorating the Set: From Hollywood to Your Home with Beth Kushnick! For our Season 7 Finale, Beth welcomes her long time friend, Emmy-award winning director and executive producer, Frederick E. O. Toye. Fred has been a part of some of the BEST television made in the last 25 years. In addition to being a treasure trove of stories and Hollywood history, he was a delightful guest. A big thank you to Fred for donating his time to speak to us.  Thank you for listening to Season 7 of Decorating the Set and we can’t wait to see you for Season 8!  The Interview with Fred begins at Time Code: 3:50 Join the Decorating the Set Community by subscribing to our Official Facebook Group (https://www.facebook.com/groups/decoratingthesetpodcast)! Interact with Beth, Caroline, Producer Mike, and all of the DTS listeners! GUEST BIO: FREDERICK E. O. TOYE   Frederick E. O. Toye is an American television director and executive producer. Toye made the move into television directing after working for five years as a production assistant and a decade as an editor. This background in the editing room gave him a solid sense of how to tell a clear story, which helped considerably in his work on such complex series as Chuck (NBC 2007–12) and Fringe (Fox 2008–13). Los Angeles native Toye got his first screen credit working as a production assistant on Billy Crystal’s 1989 HBO special Midnight Train to Moscow, before moving into visual effects on films like The Addams Family (1991) and then working as an assistant editor on hit films such as Forrest Gump (1994) and Men in Black (1997). As a TV director, Toye cut his teeth on network TV action and sci-fi thrillers like Alias, Lost, and Fringe and has also worked on character-rich dramas such as The Good Wife. That experience running the gamut between drama genres served Toye well in recent years, directing episodes of genre series like Westworld, Snowpiercer, Watchmen and The Walking Dead. In 2024, his prolific output included The Boys and Fallout. The same year, Toye received acclaim for his work on Shōgun, helming four episodes of the Emmy-winning FX drama series, including season finale “A Dream of a Dream.” The season’s penultimate episode, “Crimson Sky,” earned Toye his first-ever Emmy for outstanding directing, which was also Toye’s first-ever career nomination in the category. Toye followed it up by directing the pilot episode of Prime Video's prequel series The Terminal List: Dark Wolf, starring Chris Pratt and Taylor Kitsch. He set to direct the opening episodes of the Prime Video series Bloodaxe and God of War. ### For over 35 years, Beth Kushnick has created character-driven settings for countless award-winning television series and feature films.

You know that feeling when your home is technically decorated… but it still doesn't feel finished? Everything is in place. You've bought the furniture, hung some art, added a few pillows—but something still feels off. Not terrible. Just… incomplete. In this episode, I'm breaking down the 7 most common decorating mistakes that keep homes stuck in that “almost there” stage for years. And here's the truth most people miss: it's rarely about buying more things. It's about a few key decisions that quietly affect how your entire home feels. Let's get into it. 1. Decorating room-by-room instead of as a whole home When every room is designed in isolation, your home starts to feel disconnected. Even beautiful rooms won't flow together if there's no shared thread connecting them. 2. Hanging onto placeholder pieces too long That “we'll replace it later” rug? The temporary lighting? The art you never really loved? These pieces quietly keep your home in limbo—and your eye registers that lack of intention. 3. Getting scale wrong (especially rugs, lighting, and art) Even well-designed rooms feel off when scale is wrong. Too-small rugs, undersized lighting, or timid art choices can make everything feel underwhelming. 4. Mixing styles without a bridge element You can mix styles beautifully—but without a unifying material, color, or shape language, the room starts to feel accidental instead of curated. 5. Playing it too safe with neutrals Safe doesn't always mean successful. When everything is soft beige, gray, or white, rooms can lose depth, contrast, and personality. 6. Treating lighting as functional instead of foundational Lighting is often an afterthought, but it's one of the most powerful design tools you have. Without layering and intention, even great rooms fall flat. 7. Not editing enough Most homes don't struggle from a lack of decor—they struggle from too much. When every surface is filled, nothing gets to stand out.   If your home feels “almost finished,” you don't need a full redesign. You likely need clarity, editing, and a few intentional adjustments that shift how everything works together. Small changes can create a surprisingly big transformation.   If this is the stage you're in—where you can see what's not working but aren't sure what to do next—that's exactly what I help with inside my coaching and programs. You don't need more inspiration. You need a clear plan that connects your home together.

Today we're diving into the five decorating questions everyone asks…but the answers aren't always what people expect. From: “Why doesn't my home feel finished?” to “Why can't I figure out my style?” to “Are trends ruining my house?” …we're getting honest about the real reasons so many women feel stuck, overwhelmed, and frustrated in their homes. Because most decorating struggles aren't actually about paint colors or throw pillows. They're about confidence, clarity, decision fatigue, and trying to create a home that finally feels like YOU. In this episode, we're talking about: Why Pinterest inspiration isn't enough The hidden reason your home still feels incomplete Why trend-chasing creates disconnected spaces The truth about finding your design style The biggest decorating mistake I see over and over again If you've ever thought: “I know what I like…but I can't make it work in my house,” this episode is for you. And friend…we're celebrating FIVE YEARS of the podcast!

We are thrilled to welcome a designer who perfectly embodies American laid-back, high-style design: Nathan Turner! As a fifth-generation Californian, his work is infused with sunny colors, natural textures, and bold, fun touches. Nathan joins Caroline, Taryn, and Liz to talk about his highly anticipated third book, I Love Decorating: Creating Stylish, Thoughtful, and Personal Spaces. Nathan shares the hilarious and serendipitous story of his career, from getting a double major in business and economics to working as an antiques buyer in Europe simply because he spoke Italian. He also reminisces about his first Los Angeles shop, where his legendary in-store dinner parties accidentally launched his entire interior design career. Quick Decorating & Career Takeaways: Be Open to the Unexpected Pivot: Nathan stresses the importance of being open to new opportunities, especially early in your career. Despite having a practical degree in business and economics, he leaned into his love of Italy and the Italian language, which eventually landed him a job as an assistant and buyer for an antiques dealer. Make Your Space Feel Like a Home: When Nathan opened his first shop in LA, he didn't just display items on shelves—he reinstalled the building's little kitchen and started cooking for friends and decorators. By setting the shop up to feel like a real home and hosting events, he naturally showcased his aesthetic and inspired people to hire him. Embrace the "Adventure Yes": Even when clients first started asking Nathan to design their homes, he didn't have formal interior design experience. He describes himself as an "adventure yes" kind of person: he agreed to the projects and trusted his eye, esthetic chops, and work ethic to figure it out along the way. What You'll Hear on This Episode: 00:00 Welcome & Introduction to Nathan Turner 00:57 Discussing Nathan's new book, I Love Decorating 01:41 How Nathan started his design career completely "by accident" 02:07 Getting a degree in business and economics to appease his parents 03:19 Studying abroad in Siena, Italy and embracing his "Italian era" 05:18 The chance meeting with an antiques dealer in San Juan Capistrano 06:12 Prematurely opening his own LA shop and running out of money by January 07:14 The famous LA shop dinner parties and the LA Times feature 08:22 Hosting elaborate events, like tenting the shop for a Turkish dinner 08:51 Transitioning organically into residential interior design 50:53 Closing thoughts and finding Nathan's fabrics at Ainsworth Noah Also Mentioned: New Book: I Love Decorating: Creating Stylish, Thoughtful, and Personal Spaces by Nathan Turner Previous Books: American Style and I Love California Ainsworth Noah (Fabric Showroom) Shop Ballard Designs Please send in your questions so we can answer them on our next episode!

Welcome to Decorating the Set: From Hollywood to Your Home with Beth Kushnick!  This week on Decorating the Set, Beth and Caroline sit down with actor, writer, director and producer of 2022's Forty Winks and 2025's Atrabilious, William Atticus Parker. Will is here to discuss his new movie, The Auction, which is in pre-production (and which Beth is Production Designer), and his journey to becoming a filmmaker in a changing industry. As Beth says in the interview, young filmmakers like Will give us hope for the future of the industry. Don’t miss this interview! The Interview with Will begins at Time Code: 3:37 Join the Decorating the Set Community by subscribing to our Official Facebook Group (https://www.facebook.com/groups/decoratingthesetpodcast)! Interact with Beth, Caroline, Producer Mike, and all of the DTS listeners! GUEST BIO: WILLIAM ATTICUS PARKER   William Atticus Parker is a writer, director, producer, and actor living in Brooklyn, New York. At twenty-one years old, he has already written, directed, and produced two micro-low-budget feature films. Forty Winks, starring Justin Marcel McManus and Susan Sarandon, had a successful festival run and is now streaming on Prime Video, Tubi, Roku, and more. Atrabilious, starring Leon Addison Brown, Mark Boone Junior, Jeffrey Wright, and Whoopi Goldberg, had a successful festival run and will release on Prime Video July 18th, 2025. Forty Winks was filmed in Black & White with Atrabilious drenched in a neon color palette. Despite technical and financial limitations, both films did very well with critics and audiences alike. Forty Winks was filmed in less than a week with a budget of $5,000 when he was 17 and Atrabilious was filmed in a week and a half with a budget of $20,000 when he was 18 – both films were entirely self-funded. The Auction, his upcoming third feature starring Raúl Castillo & Mary-Louise Parker, is set to take his small-scale darkly comedic thrillers to a science-fiction horror spectacle. His acting career began as a seven-frame cameo in Forty Winks. He has now taken on roles in The Gray House (directed by Roland Joffe), Obstacle (short film with Megan Boone) and Their Town (written by Mark Duplass) as well as being set to appear in The Auction. His inspirations include Jordan Peele, Ari Aster, Donald Glover, Spike Lee, Wes Anderson and Joel & Ethan Coen.

Today we are joined by a designer who has become a fixture on the decor A-List and the AD100, known for her ability to mix classic proportions with a modern, joyful energy. We are thrilled to welcome Young Huh to the podcast! Young sits down with Caroline, Taryn, and Liz to discuss her stunning debut book, A Mood, A Thought, A Feeling: Interiors. She shares the fascinating story of her career pivot from unhappy lawyer to celebrated interior designer, the life-changing epiphany she had at a cocktail party, and why you should always figure out how a room should feel before you worry about what it should look like. Quick Decorating Takeaways: Define the Mood Before the Style: Young believes that trying to articulate your specific decorating "style" can be overwhelming and restrictive. Instead, she starts every project by asking how the homeowner wants to feel in the space. Do you want it to be convivial for entertaining, or quiet and still? Defining the intended mood naturally dictates what elements you should bring into the room. Trust the Bold Choice: While decorating her very first house in Scarsdale, Young decided to take a risk and paint her dining room a traditional, saturated red. That early experiment taught her how enveloping and wonderful color can be, proving that taking a bold design risk is often exactly the right move. It's Never Too Late to Pivot: Before becoming an interior designer, Young went to law school and worked as a lawyer simply to fulfill familial expectations. She reminds listeners that we are constantly evolving creatures, and you should never be afraid to embrace a new adventure or take classes for something you are truly passionate about. What You'll Hear on This Episode: 00:00 Welcome & Introduction to Young Huh 01:19 The inspiration and structure behind her debut book, A Mood, A Thought, A Feeling 03:20 Decorating her first home in Scarsdale and transitioning from apartments to a full house 04:25 The cocktail party epiphany that sparked her career change 04:50 The journey from being an unhappy lawyer to finding her true passion 06:56 What it was like going back to design school with a baby in tow 09:50 Young's early design experiments and the famous red dining room 11:19 Why identifying your desired "mood" is easier than defining your "style" 12:23 Designing living rooms for conviviality and entertaining vs. peaceful stillness Also Mentioned: Book: A Mood, A Thought, A Feeling: Interiors by Young Huh Young Huh Interior Design | Website Follow Young on Instagram: @younghuh Shop Ballard Designs Please send in your questions so we can answer them on our next episode!

Includes stories about classic (and not so classic) films and television shows including: Midnight Cowboy, The Warriors, The French Connection, The Exorcist, The Godfather, The Wiz, The Taking of Pelham 123, Annie Hall, Cruising, Do The Right Thing, When Harry Met Sally, Home Alone 2, The Sopranos, and Law and Order. ### For over 35 years, Beth Kushnick has created character-driven settings for countless award-winning television series and feature films.

Do you secretly believe you're just bad at decorating? If your rooms feel “almost done” but never quite finished… if decisions feel overwhelming… if you've made a few expensive mistakes that shook your confidence… this episode is for you. Because the truth is this: You're not bad at decorating. You're missing design clarity. In today's episode, I'm breaking down the six most common reasons women struggle to create cohesive, finished homes — and why none of them have to do with talent. We'll talk about: Why decorating is a teachable skill (and why you must believe that first) How not knowing your aesthetic creates decision fatigue and insecurity Why decorating without a clear plan leads to expensive, frustrating mistakes How comparison steals joy and keeps your home feeling “behind” The way budget stress and past mistakes start running your design decisions Why practice — with trusted guidance — changes everything If you've ever thought: “I should be better at this by now.” “I've wasted too much money.” “Why can't I just get it right?” This episode will reframe everything. Decorating isn't about perfection. It's about clarity, direction, and confidence. And once you have those, finishing a room becomes not only possible — but predictable. ✨✨ Ready to Build Design Clarity? ✨✨ If you're ready to stop circling and start creating a home you can't stop gushing about, join me inside my free workshop: 3 Steps to Creating a Home You Can't Stop Gushing About Inside, you'll learn: • How to define your personal aesthetic • Which other filters you need to make confident decisions • How to build a clear, step-by-step plan for your home (without blowing your budget) Register here: https://figandfarmathome.com  You don't need more talent.

In this episode, Shaun and Rebecca are joined by returning favorites Heather of Heather KW Styles and Lauren of Studio Laloc for an unfiltered designer roundtable. What starts as a chat about Danish hardware and custom furniture quickly spirals into tariffs, turning down nightmare projects, presentation strategies, ideal clients, and—yes—an unforgettable handyman story.From navigating red flags on discovery calls to debating whether we'd decorate a Miami Vice mansion for the right price, this episode is equal parts business strategy and design therapy. If you've ever questioned a client fit, struggled with pricing under tariffs, or wondered how other designers hold their boundaries, this one's for you.In this episode they discuss:Why presenting one strong design concept can lead to fewer revisions and stronger client trustHow tariffs are impacting pricing, sourcing, and designer-client conversations in real timeWhen it's smart (and necessary) to turn down a high-paying projectThe red flags that show up during discovery calls—and how to handle them professionallyWhy ideal clients often have collections, strong opinions, and shared valuesFlat fee vs. hourly structures and how that affects presentation strategyThe power of designer friendships and creative accountability groupsA truly unhinged handyman story that proves vetting referrals mattersMentioned:Studio Laloc (https://www.studiolaloc.com/)Heather KW Styles (https://www.heatherkwstyles.com/)Our links:Subscribe and leave a review - Apple PodcastsLike, Comment, & Follow - Hot Young Designers Club InstagramRebecca's InstagramShaun's InstagramFor more information - Check out the websiteBecome a “Loyal Hottie” - Support us on PatreonDesign Resources - Check out our shop

If you've ever thought… “I want a beautiful home, but I don't trust myself.” “What if I make expensive mistakes?” “What if this costs more than I can afford?” “What if I ask a dumb question?” This episode is for you. Today, I'm joined by one of my students, Loraine, and we're having an honest conversation about what it's really like to work together inside my decorating framework. We talk about: How she went from second-guessing every decision to decorating with confidence The rooms she's worked on and the progress she's made Why having a step-by-step plan changed everything How gentle guidance (and a few nudges!) helped her avoid costly mistakes The fear she had about the cost — and why it turned out to be more doable than she expected Why no question is ever a “dumb” question If you've been stuck in analysis paralysis… If your rooms feel unfinished… If you're afraid of wasting money… If you want someone to walk beside you without judgment… Loraine's story will show you what's possible. Decorating isn't about having perfect taste. It's about having a plan and the confidence to follow it. And sometimes, the right guidance makes all the difference. Thinking About Taking the Next Step? If you're ready to stop guessing and finally create a clear, practical decorating plan for your home, there are two ways to begin: ✨ Join my upcoming live workshop where I'll teach you the 3 Steps to Creating a Home you Can't Stop Gushing About OR ✨ Book a call with me to talk through your space and see what working together could look like in YOUR home: Decorating SOS Call  You don't have to figure this out alone.

How to Plan a Room from Start to Finish: 10 Essential Steps for Stress-Free Home Decorating Do you ever find yourself staring at a room in your home wondering, “Where do I even start?” If you've been buying pieces you love but still can't seem to finish a room, the problem likely isn't your style — it's that you don't have a clear home decorating plan. In today's episode, I'm walking you through the 10 essential steps to creating a foolproof home decorating plan so you can stop guessing, stop overspending, and finally finish your rooms with confidence. This episode is your practical roadmap for how to plan a room from start to finish — without copying Pinterest, wasting money, or getting stuck halfway through. If you've been searching for: How to decorate a room step by step Where to start when decorating a room How to create a cohesive home How to plan a room makeover How to finish a room you've already started You're in the right place. In This Episode, You'll Learn the 10 Essential Steps:  1. Know Your Aesthetic Before you move a single piece of furniture, you need clarity on your personal style. We'll talk about how to define your aesthetic without copying someone else's home. 2. Take Inventory of Your Room Learn how to assess what you already own so you can decorate intentionally instead of impulsively. 3. Define the Goals for Your Space What is this room actually for? Function matters just as much as beauty when creating a cohesive home. 4. Use Inspiration — Without Copying & Pasting Pinterest and inspiration photos are tools, not templates. I'll show you how to use them wisely. 5. Understand Expectation vs. Reality Be honest about your time, energy, and skill set so your decorating plan stays realistic and doable. 6. Create a Flexible Decorating Budget You need a starting number — but you also need room to adjust. I'll explain how to plan financially without boxing yourself in. 7. Follow a Step-by-Step Roadmap A room doesn't come together all at once. I'll show you how to build in “pit stops” along the way to reassess and adjust your plan. 8. Set a Realistic Timeline Most unfinished rooms stall because expectations are off. We'll talk about what's actually reasonable. 9. Execute with Confidence Once the plan is in place, you can move forward without second-guessing every decision. 10. Celebrate the Finished Space Finishing a room is an accomplishment — and celebration builds confidence for the next one. Why This Matters Most women don't struggle with creativity — they struggle with clarity. Without a clear decorating roadmap, it's easy to: Overspend on the wrong pieces Buy decor without a plan Leave rooms half-finished Feel overwhelmed every time you walk into the space This 10-step decorating plan gives you structure so your home can feel cohesive, intentional, and finished.

You've saved the inspiration. You have the vision. You can see what you want your home to feel like. So why does the room still feel unfinished? In today's episode, I'm sharing the secret most decorators don't tell you about finishing a room — and it has nothing to do with having better taste, a bigger budget, or more time. The real secret? It's knowing where to start. Most of us begin with massive inspiration but no clear structure. We jump into paint colors before confirming furniture layout. We buy décor before defining the foundation. We move forward without a roadmap — and somewhere along the way we feel frustrated, overwhelmed, confused… and we start questioning our confidence. It's not that you don't have style. It's that you don't have a plan. In this episode, I break down: Why inspiration without structure leads to stalled rooms Why we often start at the end instead of the beginning  How to think about decorating as a clear, sequential process The mindset shift that brings back confidence and clarity If you've ever felt stuck halfway through a room (or like you keep second-guessing your decisions), this episode will give you a powerful reframe. ✨✨ REGISTER for the FREE WORKSHOP ✨✨ 3 Steps to Creating a Home you Can't STOP Gushing About  March 11 and 12  9am PST | 10 am MST | 11am CST | 12 pm EST   // Links mentioned in show: // Learn your design style: https://bit.ly/ffdesignguide Email: hello@figandfarmathome.com Website: https://figandfarmathome.com Join The Collective (monthly membership): https://www.figandfarmathome.com/thecollective Book a Decorating SOS Coaching Call: https://www.figandfarmathome.com/decorating-sos Instagram, where I rarely hang out: https://www.instagram.com/figandfarm/ FREE Facebook Community: https://www.bit.ly/design101group

How do you know when a room is actually done? Not “good enough.” Not “I'll just add one more thing.” But finished in a way that feels calm, intentional, and deeply satisfying. In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain and sharing a behind-the-scenes lesson from The Collective—a private space where I teach women how to confidently decorate their homes without overwhelm or wasted money. We talk about why so many rooms get stuck at the almost finished stage, and how the problem usually isn't a lack of ideas… it's not knowing when to stop. I'll walk you through the six elements I assess when deciding whether a room is complete—and the exact questions I ask before adding anything else. This episode is about restraint, clarity, and learning to trust your decisions—so you can create a home you truly delight in. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why rooms often feel 80% done—but never quite finished The difference between a room that looks styled and one that feels complete The 6 elements I assess before adding anything new: Balance Scale Cohesiveness Functionality Restraint Feeling The key questions to ask yourself before buying “just one more thing” How finishing a room can shift how you feel in your home—and in yourself A Client Moment Worth Sharing I also share a brief case study from a client whose finished room didn't just look better—it changed how she felt walking into her home. Less second-guessing. Less mental noise. More pride. More ease. More delight. Sometimes the transformation isn't about what you add—it's about finally knowing when you're done. Ready for Support?

"My Four Tenets of Good Design are not rules to follow, as much as they are a framework to help you think about design, not just as something pretty to look at but as something that inspires you to be the best version of yourself in the moments when no one is watching." —Nate Berkus, Foundations A feeling of immediate release of any tension, letting the day wash away, and a trust that the comforts and reminders of love and bounty of a beautiful life lived surround you is what a thoughtfully decorated sanctuary gives us each time we cross the threshold.  The truth is a sanctuary can be found anywhere, and in fact doesn't need to be a place, but as we talked about in Monday's Motivational post, can be people or even ineffable things – concepts, ideas where we rest our mind. However, most definitely, our home can be a sanctuary, and today, we're going to explore 7 ways to transform your home into just that.  Because a home isn't always a sanctuary. It may have four walls that keep us warm and shelter us, but the definition of a sanctuary is that it is a reliable place of refuge to rejuvenate ourselves. As defined in Buddha's Brain, a book written by Rick Hanson and the inspiration behind episode #327, a sanctuary is anyone or anything that provides reliable protection, so that you can let down your guard and gather strength and wisdom." So with that definition in mind, when American interior designer Nate Berkus' new book, Foundations, was released this past November, I found a helpful companion resource to help each of us identify what would make our home a sanctuary and where to start the journey of gradually decorating a nest that feels far more than just a home, but most definitely a sanctuary.  The guiding premise of Foundations is Berkus' four tenets of good design: make it personal, embrace history, introduce character, and develop your vision. These will guide us through today's episode/post. Let's begin exploring how to lay the foundation of our decorating journey so that as we progress, adding pieces, making decisions along the way, we have clarity and trust what we choose. 

Raised in Beverly Hills with a film director father, Madeline Stuart made her way into design working for up-and-coming screenwriters and actors. While the movies have played an enormous part in Stuart's career, her work has the depth of a novel—carefully studied, richly textured, and endlessly layered. Her firm has been featured on Elle Decor's A-List and the AD100, won numerous awards, and her work is regularly featured in top publications around the world.  On this episode of the podcast, she speaks with host Dennis Scully about what she calls "scavenger decorating," the highs and lows of working with celebrities, and how she learned to walk away from bad clients—as quickly as possible.This episode is sponsored by Ernesta and SixpennyLINKSMadeline StuartDennis ScullyBusiness of Home
