Making a Living Room in my Compact Tokyo Apartment

- 43 square meters isn’t a bad size for Tokyo, but trying to figure out the best way to use the space can be hard. A big thank you to Alex (@alextthomas on insta) and Natasha (@ellespazz) for taking my mini couch and monstera!
I stream multiple times a week on twitch aswell!

Hi everyone! People keep asking about my hamster Moss, I announced on my social media and in a previous video that she passed away earlier in 2019. She lived to be a good age and I loved her a lot. Ok that’s all thank you for watching the video!
Aww wee moss is loving it in hamster heaven x
ironically I was also thinking about your hamster friend!!! Moss is the name :D awe RIP!
Tokidoki Traveller Yes plz make an apartment review
Oh bless little Moss
She was a good child
Would love to see a new apartment tour 🙌
The "before" and "After" at 4:02 shows such a difference in the feel of the room! It's much more inviting now.
Thank you Dave! It’s nicer having friends over now definitely haha, it feels much more friendly too
@@TokidokiTraveller You should be an interior decorator. The place looks amazing after. You look really pretty in this vid.
I’m a much older lady than you but I’ve watched you and cared about you since your tiny apartment days - and worried about you when you had difficult times. So pleased to see you much happier. You’re apartment is lovely. I’d love to see a whole tour. ❤️
Yes to apartment tour please!
I really want a tiny house so watching how you design such a small space is really enjoyable.
You should save up for when animal crossing comes out on Switch! I'm so excited for it to finally come out X 😊🍃
Oh my goshhhh I am so excited 😭😭😭 huge animal crossing fan! I’m worried I will not want to do anything else but play it when it comes out 😅
@@TokidokiTraveller Ah same for me x I want to get it as soon as but I'm graduating uni this summer haha so I may keep it off until then 😂
I have no idea why your videos are like a drug to me I swear they immediately put me in such good mood thank you for being you
Your house is so warm now. It looks so comfy, it's small but not claustrophobic now, that couch makes it so happy in the space. I want to see the new updated tour!
8:55 "I'm really excited for 2020, I think some cool things are going to happen, I think some big things are going to happen and all around it's going to be a crazy, good year"
I would love to see an updated apartment tour. Your personality is as lovely as your apartment 💕
I read the suggestion below for a water proof cover to protect the sofa. That works but the drawback is that it never looks smart. However, there's another option. Always keep bottle of club soda and a stack of cheap white bar towels on hand. Immediately after the spill blot it (NOT rub it) until you have eliminated as much of the spill as possible. Then liberally pour club soda directly on the spill and blot repeatedly until it's gone. Works on red wine, too.
I learned this trick from a woman who had white carpets and dozens of house parties in a year. Not a stain anywhere.
this is so cute and practical! i love small spaces because me and my husband are small people and really get along just fine in smaller spaces. i used to live in an old converted hotel from the 1800s and our living room was non existent haha
It made a huge difference in making it look more open and bright! Thanks for sharing and I would like an updated tour
I've been so excited to see your new living room!! It looks amazing! Happy 2020!! 😍😍
Thank you so much! A very happy 2020 to you too 😄
What a gorgeous apartment! I love how you improved it and made it seem more spacious and cozy in the living room :) I love videos like this, they're motivational in helping me to reduce my stuff and make my apartment nicer. I have a ~55 sq meter (~600 sq foot) 1940's studio in Seattle, WA USA and I think my place has too much junk in my kitchen and my walk-in closet. Best of everything to you and your friends/family!
I’m really late with watching this video, but it’s 4/8/20 and the hear Emma say big things are going to happen this year and if only we all knew what would happen. Freaking quarantine etc. Man it’s already been one heck of a year already!! 😅
It looks so much better! The couch adds so much!
It looks wonderful now Emma! I live in an apartment pretty much exactly the same size so I know the struggle of making different spaces. I have a folding dining table that I normally keep folded up and tucked against my counters so I can sit there and eat when it's just me, but when I have people over I move all the furniture aside and unfold it and we all end up eating in the middle of my living room!! My biggest struggle was finding a couch that was small enough but would fold out as a bed so someone could sleep over if needed.
I’d love to see a new apartment tour Emma! Everything looks great so far! ✌🏻🥰❤️😘
Ooooh Switch! I would love to see you guys have gameplay videos!
Years have passed and I still think you’ve created the most fun, creative, satisfying outro I’ve ever encountered. It’s sooo good, the music, the goofy dance! Everything!! ✨
Your place looks so good now ! I mean it was good before x) but a living room is a very "adulting" space for me. I'm happy for you. Thx for sharing with us.
I think it feels more adult to me too! I’m like I have my life together a bit haha 😂 I’m not sure why
If anyone can make a teeny tiny space cosy, comfortable, and stylish it is certainly you Emma! I’m practically screaming at how perfectly your sofa fits in the space 😍💜
It took a very long time to find furniture that wasn’t too big for our exact size 😂 so so happy with how it turned out though!
Yes, I think a revisit to see the changes in your apartment would be great! The living area looks far better now with the couch.
I totally get the need for a couch over a dining table. In my old tiny one bedroom apartment, I had to choose and couch definitely won. Bonus was it doubled as a spare bed. Can’t wait to see your next apartment tour.
i love how sunlight peeps into the living room ✨✨ suuuuper warm and cosy
You’re using your living room place quite efficiently! You gotta think resourceful when you’re living in a small apartment! Good job✨
Some huge thing(s) happened in 2020 indeed. Hope this one will be better. Also hoping for some update on the apartment/plants/life. Could use some inspiration and motivation these days... 🥰
So nice watching your video again Emma !
I love your videos. So calm and happy feeling. Bless you.
Emma is the best plant mom - all her plants grow so beautifully! TEACH ME YOUR WAYS, SENSEI.
You do have space for a small kitchen island if you want to have the counter space to use! I have a limited space as well and I found it very useful.
Yes, islands are great! Ikea has some good options 🤗
It looks so much nicer now - more "mature".
I feel your pain in small spaces. Even though I have a 3 bedroom house, it's tiny and making things fit is a pain. We went lounge shopping last year for a 3 seater, and all the lounges were either too big or too small. I have teenagers, as if they want to sit near each other, lol.
We also have a dining table that we don't sit at. I would get rid of it, but am currently using the underneath for the bunnies we have - we have a pet fence around it and it's their "bedroom" when we lock them away.
As you would know, games here in Australia are super pricey. We've had our switch for a year now and only have 5 games. I preorder and then pay them off as a layby. Can you do that in Japan? It might be an idea if you can ^_^
Looks great! An updated apartment tour would be great! 💖
I would love an updated apartment tour. You could easily fit a small rolling island in the kitchen for more cutting prep area and storage under it
This gives me hope for my apartment. Been here almost two years and still have gotten it together.
Emma, you are so endearing. Your space looks amazing! Thank you for bringing us all along on your adventures ♥
I feel happy too... Since you were in the very small space until now. Soon I will move to the apartment as you do now... So excited 😊😊 from Jakarta- Indonesia
Yes to the updated apartment tour :-)
Oh yes please for an updated flat tour ❤️
Aww I feel like you could become a plant nurturer - grow them from being small until they are too big for your apartment, then they go their new home in a wheels box 🤗🌱
so nice! it's hard to see if there is enough space, but if you miss having a table to eat at or the countertop to prepare food on, maybe a narrow kitchen island would work? I've seen them where tiny bar stools are stored underneath. maybe a butcher block topped one? still, i love the new space you've created. :)
Wow, what a difference! Looks so much better. Good job
YES! to the apartment tour! Nice job.
ah your apartment vids always get me super pumped on rearranging our place and buying a million more house plants
Haha I get that way when I watch redecorating or renovating videos 😂 sometimes I have to stop watching them so I don’t feel to antsy and want to change everything hahaha
@@TokidokiTraveller dude if you dont watch The Sorry Girls you would LOVE their channel, been picking up protips from them like a madlad
Looks great! Would love an apartment tour! Thanks for sharing!!
Aw it looks so charming well done! I see the vision. 👀🍃🍃🍃🍃
I love what you’ve done with your living room ❤️ It looks great!
Super cute little living room, someday I will have an apartment that is more than a bedroom and I can make a living room too lol
Always good to see you!! Love ya!
I totally agree with playing the Switch as an awesome way to “switch off” (or on?? Haha) and properly chill. Ahh it looks so cozy Emma! What a wonderful home you guys have made. Also I love your little decorations like the kokeshi(?) dolls! I really want some but it’s super hard to find authentic ones in Europe obviously. Hope you’re goooood! Sending tonnes of love your way. ❤️ HAPPY 2020!
Aahh it's so satisfying to make your space more functional! Congrats!
Also, best wishes to your family in Australia!
I love it!
A full apartment tour would be great, too. 😊
Have an amazing 2020! 👍
The lighting was super nice in this video!
Love your channel I watch it every day and your New
couch is awesome 🥰
a few ideas from a long time small space person, add a tall small table as an island in the kitchen? looks like there is room or a smallish chair between the kitchen and living space? looks like there is alot of wall hugging
I love watching people make the most out of small apartments, it looks really cozy! I have the same problem with having to let my friends sit on my bed right now because I'm renting a room in a house share. Can't wait to move out in a couple of months and have the filthy, filthy capitalist luxury of having my own couch.
I love how you have a lot of plants in your apartment.
Goodness that looks coooooooozy, and I'd love an updated apartment tour! You've really got a knack for interior design. Feng shui as all fff. Always enjoy the videos, thanks for making them! :D :D :D
The living room looks very lovely!
Your design made the space very open and welcoming.
Side note, check book off for cheaper games. They have switch games pop up from time to time. :)
Good idea! For some reason I never thought to check for 2nd hand switch games, only older console games 😅 I’ll definitely have a look the next time I’m near a book off!
Tokidoki Traveller. I am obsessed with book off. :-x
I found that you’ll always be near a book off when you travel japan.
The living room looks great! Very cosy. I think you could fit a small kitchen island in the kitchen area, if you want more bench space. I know Ikea in Australia usually have compact ones on wheels that you can move around easily. Not sure if they're popular/available in Japan though!
Yes please, updated apartment tour 👏🏻👏🏻 because I'm a bit confused with this new sofa locates right in front of your bedroom? Or not? 🤔😅
Your friend Alex looks like a really cool person wth!!
Happy 2020! So sad that you had to let go that huge plant.. but I hope it will be as happy at your friend place :D
Been watching you since before your first tiny apartment went viral!! What a jump! :)
Oooh I hope you have fun in Osaka and Universal! I’m definitely gonna check you out on twitch too 💖 love ya girl, happy new year
Looks amazing! Yes to appartment tour please
The perfect thing for my first day off in weeks! Thanks for posting, your videos are my favorite to listen to while I play video games and relax.
Also, you can find a lot of cheap games for the Switch that are very fun! In particular, I think you'd LOVE Stardew Valley, it seems right up your alley in terms of A E S T H E T I C. Cattails is also a fun, cheap game, and Nintendo has some free emulated games of NES/SNES classics like Yoshi's Island or Super Mario World.
Yes, to a full apartment tour
YES would love a updated tour.👍🏽
Yes please to an updated apartment tour 🥰
You're a natural decorator!
USJ is soooo good! I had an annual pass when I lived there. Go straight to the Flying Dragon as soon as you get there - the best ride!!
It turned out really nice.
That's a really cute space, nice job!!
Would love an updated apartment tour and maybe a few Moss videos. :)
2 years already!?! Seems like you just moved in a little while ago! Yowza☺️
Looks awesome Emma
Yes a tourrrrr!!!!
It would be cool to see an updated apartment tour! :)
I've got some inspiration from your video about decorating a compact room.. nice
Great Living Room! It looks really cozy right now. Where did you get that TV cabinet? I really like it
Ooh! You got the couch I am thinking about getting. It is one of the cheaper nice ones, but it is too bad the cushions don't come out :(
Well, some big things definitely happened in 2020.
I was 100% expecting "I like eating food" at 8:44.
Deffo want an updated apartment tour! 😁
love the video! would love to see another apartment tour! 😊
deserved a like just because of the -o fi aesthetic at the beggining of the video sz
I really like your videos Emma. You're great and happy. Thanks for sharing your life and ideas with us :) We love you
Really nice customization! And Switch console looked really nice :-)
Your living room looks fantastic!
You should get Kirby as your next switch game! It’s a lot of fun and a great one to play both solo and with friends 💕
Just a friendly reminder: Either get a screen protector for your Switch or put a little piece of cloth between the Switch and the dock, otherwise the dock will scratch the screen of the Switch. :)
@@Yuni_Gaming Then you've been very lucky. :D
The problem is that the screen of the switch is not made of glass, but of plastic, which is not very scratch-resistant.
I really like the open concept.
These are the videos I live for ♥️
I’d love another tour!
it looks so cozy and cute!!! 😍
yes love a tour
Digital download in the nintendo store is great, good games go on sale for under $10 cad often and you get points you can use towards other purchases. I've even got games for $2.
I've been playing graveyard keeper and child of light
