A Love Letter to My Roomies: Reflecting on the Year & Welcoming a New One Together

Hey Roomies,

If you’ve been here for a while—or even if you just found your way into this little corner of the internet—this one is for you.

Today’s video is a little different than usual. Instead of styling tips or design breakdowns, it’s a compilation of every single intro from this past year. Every “hi roomies,” every welcome, every moment where I hit record and hoped you’d stay for a while. It’s reflective, a little emotional, and honestly very full of gratitude.

Why the Intros Matter More Than You Think

Those first few seconds of a video might seem small—but to me, they’re everything. Each intro represents a moment of connection. A choice you made to press play. A pause in your day where we shared a space, even if it was just for a few minutes.

When I started Rooms By Roma, I wasn’t trying to build just another design channel. I wanted to create something that felt human. Approachable. Real. A place where design didn’t feel intimidating or unattainable—but instead felt like a conversation between friends.

If you ever felt welcomed here, seen here, or even just comforted here—then this channel did exactly what I hoped it would.

More Than Décor: Creating Spaces That Support Real Life

Yes, we talk about décor. We talk about styling, layout, trends, and textures. But underneath all of that, the heart of Rooms By Roma has always been about how your home makes you feel.

Your home isn’t a showroom.
It’s where life happens.

This past year, my hope was that you didn’t just walk away with ideas—but with confidence. Confidence to move your furniture around instead of buying new. Confidence to trust your taste. Confidence to let your home evolve as you evolve.

Design isn’t about perfection. It’s about intention. It’s about creating a space that supports you through every season—messy ones included.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts, your stories, and your kindness.

Every interaction—every like, message, and moment of support—turns these videos into more than content. It turns them into community.

Being a Roomie means you’re part of something warm, thoughtful, and rooted in connection. And I don’t take that lightly. Not for a second.

A New Year, A Fresh Chapter

As we step into a new year together, I want this to be your reminder that you don’t need to overhaul your entire life—or your home—to start fresh.

Sometimes a new year looks like:

  • rearranging a room

  • letting go of what no longer fits

  • creating new traditions

  • or simply giving yourself permission to grow

Homes change because people change. And that’s not something to fear—it’s something to celebrate.

Here’s to What’s Next

My wish for you this year is simple:

  • more creativity

  • more courage

  • more joy in the everyday

  • and more love in the spaces you call home

Whether you’ve been here since the beginning or just joined the Roomies, I’m so grateful you’re part of this journey.

Here’s to another year of creating, learning, rearranging, and growing together
Happy New Year, Roomies
