    For the boob pads: I sewed with 6 of them a ball for my toddler to play with 😅it worked really well

    You have no idea how much I needed this video! I have seen so many "refresh my apartment" videos where people would just throw out all their furniture and buy new ones, and it's so refreshing to see one where you just prioritize reusing what you already have! I'm using this video as inspiration.

    I did not feel well today, so I watched a bunch of your videos to abstract myself from my bad mood. I recently found you on YT. One of my goals this year is to tell good things when I feel them. So I just wanted to tell you, that you and your videos helped me so much the last hour!! Thank you for your content and your real, funny and warm way to do and tell things❤

    Really love your makeover videos - shows you don't need a massive budget, tools and new stuff to refresh a space and make it work and feel better - I also love how you test out new ideas, and aren't afraid to change your mind afterwards! 💖

    Awhile back when I was cleaning out my dresser I looked up ways to reuse old bra pads, and there were a lot of people that use them for moving furniture, or packing dishes for moving. There's also a lot of uses in the cosplay community.

    you could paint a band of colour in your colour scheme around your paper bag tissue cover (or maybe even in gold), so that it shows a bit better that it is an intentional choice.

    I just recently threw away all my boob pads except for one set that was the best quality of the bunch 😅 I have actually used them occasionally to replace inferior boob pads in bikini tops lol
    I've also been in an interior design mood lately! but also a declutter mood so I'm loving the idea of redecorating without buying more stuff

    You could paint you tissue box and then keep refilling it. I really like this video - probably that is exactly how I redecorate and refresh spaces too. Harder to relate to people who keep buying new things to change space

    you have such a great sense of design - and you really inspired me to re-arrange my own apartment - I love what you did particularly with the desk area - I'm not really a peg-board sort of person, but maybe I'll try a cork board - but I think the most important thing I learned is that just thinking about it isn't going to change anything - get to it! - I just wish I had your energy - but some very good ideas - thanks! and btw those lights look awesome -

    Hey! I have a question, idk if you’d ever do a Q&A or something, but I’d love to know: Where do you get your positivity from? I notice you have a positive outlook on a lot of things, and I’d love to hear about how that came to be, who influenced you to be that way, etc. It’s so infectious, and I’ve found myself being much more playful as I’ve come to really enjoy the videos and art that you make!

That made me so stupid happy 😆But then watching your redo was so much fun, and I love your vibes, so of course I had to sub! And no joke, I've legit been trying to make time to figure out how to be a better Plant Mom - and you also show up with the grow light sponsor code?? Def will be using that too!

    The first thing you should do is get rid of the plants one big plant in a large pot is all a home needs. Those stringy sparse ivy hanging plants do not do anything for your apartment and you have some nice things.

    @kathleenkaleookalanismith8724 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Have you thought about just getting rid of all these pieces of furniture around your bed and putting shelves up on the wall to house your things? I would do cream colored shelves so it would blend in with the walls and if you got cream colored curtains you would feel like you were sleeping in the clouds and the space would feel so much bigger. 🫶🏽
