Even though a lot of effort was put into this apartment, there is no need to be sad because it is all about new beginnings and new journeys! I can't wait for new designs and explorations ❤
I think people should understand, that "temporary" doesn't mean you can't make it comfortable for you. Even if someday all your hard work is gone, because you're moving, you lived couple of years in a place you always wanted to return to. Everything in our life is temporary in some way so it's really important to enjoy everything that surrounds you today
It was kinda sad seeing all this coziness gone, but where is an end, there is a new beginning, so congratulations on that new chapter!
I’ma little sad watching this, knowing all the work you put into this apartment. But I know that you two are going to have the best time in your new home and will do an amazing job of making it over. Have fun at your new home and thanks for making my day better :)
Can't wait to share the new adventures! 💞

I hope it will be a new home and a new beginning full of happiness and hope ♡
I broke up with my boyfriend two weeks ago and we're saying goodbye to our rental home together 🥲 It was so small and I hated it, but now I feel sad we're leaving. And I've just bought an apartment which needs a makeover. So your journey reminds me of mine, just that I'll be going through it alone. I'm still very excited about my new home, so that's okay.
I think this is the most beautiful “moving out, saying goodbye to your previous home” video i’ve ever watched. It not only preps you for your next chapter, but also makes us feel excited for you for this new beginning. A tear ran down my cheek as you showed us how the rooms were so much lived in and now like brand new. But i also can’t wait to see what your new home will be. All the best, cherish each moment, bring us with you. Thank you, you make so many of us happy with your stories.❤️❤️❤️
There are SO MANY videos showing renter friendly upgrades, but this is the first I've ever seen someone show the other side of it. The video is very well made and surprisingly emotional. You just earned a subscriber. ❤
Such a cool edit showing the beautiful before shots and the simple white after shots! It was a little sad watching you undo all the beautiful things I've watched you create but I think it's a great example to show everyone that it is worth making changes even in temporary spaces. You created a wonderful home there and I'm excited to watch you do it in the new space as well!
any kind of goodbye always makes me weepy :'( this was so relaxing to watch tho, thank you :)
I fell in love with your apartment, so this is sad. 😢 On the other hand, I cannot wait to see how you transform your new place. 😁
It is sad for me too! But change is always good and I can't wait to experience all the new joys with you 😊
i'm just watching this thinking, "that means we'll get a new set of home makeovers soon!!" 😁
It is a bit sad as I really loved the apartment, but I can’t wait for you to start your magical makeover skills for your next apartment. Really satisfying with all the sounds of building hehe ❤️
I've watched this videos several times since it's been posted! In Switzerland we are mostly renters too and videos like these are so rare but so inspiring for us renters because we realize that we shouldn't be afraid to personalize our home! I wondered how renter-friendly some of your diys were and now I know.. really, this video is a gem! 💖💖💖
I began to really hate my last apartment and neighborhood but I teared up a tiny bit when I walked out the door for the last time. My younger brother and I had lived there for five years and it was a good middle ground we both needed after our mom wanted her own place (rightfully so, we were in our mid 20's, lol). Now I live on my own and my younger brother lives with our older sibling until he gets on his feet. This was what I felt was my final step towards "real adulthood", being able to stand on my own two feet (erm...with a bit of help from my mom, lol. But 95% is my own doing). Such a great feeling, the excitement of a new chapter in life :)
Congratulations again to you and Pat for embarking on a new journey in a new home!
So nice to see this “undoing”! People always just show the doing part of renter friendly DIYs so you never get to see if they actually are in the end 😆
In regards to making big changes in rental apartments: Here in Sweden it’s very common to rent for your whole life, too. As of today it’s extremely hard to buy unless you already have a home to sell, because prices are high and the conditions for house loans are ridiculous. Now it’s almost impossible even for a family with two full time working, well paid adults to get a loan and you have to pay 15% of the home with saved money. If we bought something like our apartment we’d pay ~$350 000 all in all, and would need something like $52 000 on the bank to begin with. Instead we rent it for $550 a month. The apartment we’re moving to with our two kids would cost ~$500 000 and the rent is just shy of $850.
We’ll be making some changes to our new place too, for sure! I’m actually super inspired to do so by your channel, so thank you 🥰🥰
Same for the Netherlands! But at here life is not even as expensive as in Sweden so the housing prices are ridiculous+ there's a shortage of houses
@@wonderland1911 Finding a house in the Netherlands is a true pain in the ass
This feels like watching a season finale 🥺 I'm very excited for your new adventure (and more room makeover videos!), but I feel strangely attached to your old rental house 🥺Thank you for all your effort into making these videos for us!!
loved the last vacuum scene... i'm not crying...nope... nope 😭😭😭
A lovely video, I liked that you emphasised that someone else will enjoy the apartment and that without change new things cannot happen. I get very stressed about change and this was an important perspective for me :)
Interesting.... In Holland the new renters usually visit the place whilst your still there and then you can discuss if they want (for example) the paint to stay as it is, or maybe leave the tiles on the balcony (most of the time they buy lots of stuff you want to leave behind). Only if they don't want it, then you remove it. So it's interesting to see it's different in Germany.
I've been a quiet bystander on your channel for a while, but it's been so wonderful to watch you grow! From literally never speaking in a video, to letting us in on a little bit more of who you are, I can't wait to see what you do next. :)
Rewinding your apartment. Always good have videos like this show people how much work is to put back the way it was. I didn't go crazy with when I had a apartment. We didn't hang anything on the walls. The only thing they took was $10 for drip pans on the electric stove 😄. The only thing we bought for the place was just furniture (bedroom set, washer and dryer and a couch) my mom gave me her old family wood dining table (super heavy carry up flight of stairs that's was just the top legs came off 😄) and my mil gave us her old dining chairs. Have our own home now been 9 years still have all the times except couch so got a new one 😄.
You guys are really dedicated to making over and unmaking over for your apartment. I know usually tenants just pack and go and leave a huge pile of dust for the landlord to settle. It’s cool you even gave the kitchen a wipe down
I live in Munich actually, I would go to the Flea Market as a meet ang greet xD maybe I bring iced coffee :D
And the fact the Pat put the postcards in the fridge is so such a *ugh*
I’m not crying, you’re crying 😭 I loved all your makeovers and how each and every one done made your space looked more like a home ✨ I can’t wait to see what you do with your new place but for now ahhhh, thank you for making this video and sharing the memories of your space with us ♥️
Lots of love from your other home - Singapore xx
5.40am - singapore time. And i’m watching Hillary’s video 😝 btw, so excited to see ur new home makeover ☺️☺️
Really enjoyed all your makeovers, loved every step of the process, absolutely adore how the hole place turned out and can’t wait to see what amazing ideas and projects you bring to life in your next place. ✨¡Besos! ✨
A.-
Also: this blog was so lovely! It just gave me all the feels! I’m glad you moved on to bigger and even more beautiful things!
I live in Munich and seeing or meeting you at the fleamarket would be an absolute dream 😍😍😍
wish you all the best! the video is so warm, and it has a slight sadness. every emotion is cool, isn't it?
I felt so sensitive in the end, watching how you said goodbye to the appartment :'( it was a great chapter, and even greater is awaiting for you! Love your videos, they are always so calming and relaxing
Love your channel hilary... so excited for you and pats new chapter
Thank you Aaisha
@@cloudyhills ❤️
I love how you filmed how it was with the furniture and how it looked empty.. what a difference 🥹 all the best in the new place!
the tears fell at the end.
The word you’re looking for is “collage.” For the fridge aesthetic. We had to make them when we were younger. They’re so 80s and 90s. They’ve kinda been adapted into mood boards nowadays, but I still like them.
The buying your own kitchen in a rental is so weird to me 😅 But I like the fact that you are able to paint walls and such, here in Sweden most apartments have wallpaper and its not ideal to paint over wallpaper so im stuck with walls that I dont like, I can if I want change the wallpaper myself but its too much of a hassle. Luckily some rooms in apartments here like the kitchen and hallway has white painted walls so I painted my kitchen green. Anyway cant wait to see more makeovers from you 🥹
Love this , I’ve seen so many makeover videos but it’s also important to properly say goodbye … it’s very healing!
I really enjoy your videos! I wish you the best of luck in this new chapter 😀
at first I was wondering why you renovated the apartament (because usually ppl only stay short term) but knowing how long you guys lived there it was more than an apartment it was your house, hopefully you can make a new home out of your new apartment
im really excited for you to makeover your new house!! congrats
Wow! Can’t wait to see your new chapter in your new place.
Awww sentimental yet heartwarming ❤️ looking forward to seeing where this next chapter takes you! 🤗🇬🇧
You both did such a wonderful job making- and then un-making the place, and I can't wait to see what you do with the new house!
I love how careful you are taking down the fixtures. Great job! 💗
Love how you show to us. Can't wait to see your new apartment.
So excited to watch your future transformations in a fresh environment for creativity! 💚🌻
Aaah this felt familiar, having moved from our apartment recently to a new one. Happy New Home! Cant wait to see you work your magic on it :)
The end was cute!! Hope you guys have an amazing life in the new house!! Can't wait to see the new place and decor.🤍🪴
This is so exciting! Im excited to see what youll do with the new apartment! :D
This made me so emotional! cant wait to see your new apartment and new makeovers
I so excited to see de new decoration of you next place
Truly renter friendly! Thanks for this un makeover. Good luck with your new space and looking forward to more upgrades.
Your videos are really something ! I was sooo emotional during your videos haha, especially at the end but I can't wait for your future videos. Thank you very much for everything you do 🥺❤️
I know that you two are going to create something incredible on your new apartment ! I'm excited to watch you do it! Love from Istanbul :)
Oh!!! I just watched the full house tour and now this video is making me so sad. I look forward to seeing how you make over the next home. ❤️
Very sad yet so heartwarming ❤️ Bye bye apartment! Good luck in this new adventure 🥰
Ooof I also got very emotional watching you guys clean up and reflecting on all the videos you filmed in the space 😢 As you say though, packing up old memories to make new ones! Excited for your next adventure in your new space!
This is so bittersweet 🥹 I loved the makeovers and I understand you’ve to un-makeover it.. but I’m even more excited to see what you do with the new place! Love from India ♥️
All the very best for your new apartment❤
I can't wait to see how you decorate your new place!! :)
I've been binge watching your videos over the past couple of weeks and now I feel a little sad to see the apartment un-made. I'm sure your new apartment will be a wonderful new chapter! ❤ Also, you guys are just so efficient with getting everything removed and painted. It's satisfying to watch.
I was determined to get it done without a meltdown! 😂
@@cloudyhills Mission accomplished 😂
A farewell to this lovely apartment. I wish you and Pat a happy new journey and look forward to more videos about the new nest ❤️ Btw I live in Munich and it would be great if I could visit your flea market booth some day 💕
New subscriber and love your videos !
Have been binge watching your videos, looking forward for your new home decoration ❤️
my most favorite makeover was that balcony one :')
Im excited for the next journey. 🥰🥰🥰
I'm so curious how it will change I loved your space💕
It’s so lovely to see how y’all made it a home! Good luck to y’all for y’all’s new beginnings!! Y’all make any house a home! 🫶🏽
Omg I actually teared up at the end 🥲
You're moving?! I was just watching your apartment makeover and tour videos the other day! I love the work you did so it's kind of sad watching everything get taken apart. 😢 I look forward to seeing what you're gonna do with the new place!
Wow that must have cost you guys a lot of energy! Well done. I loved the green acent wall! Will try this in my own apartment when i move out. I really hate the textured wall paper, we have the same in my parents apartment and never painted over it besides white. In the kitchen we actually ripped it off and painted the walls pastel yellow 🙊🥰
It's interesting to see how things differ in different countries. In Australia, you basically can't make any changes without approval if you're renting. That includes putting hooks into walls for frames. We definitely wouldn't paint walls or put up shelves etc. Though, we also aren't required to paint when we leave, that would be an owner responsibility. Which is probably why so many rentals have scuffed up walls :P
They rent for a long time in Germany even a lifetime so it’s their home to do as they please to an extent. They have to install kitchen cabinets that they want and then if they move it’s got to go too. I have moved soo much in Australia which isn’t common over their.
I felt really emotional watching this! Wishing you good luck in your next place and can't wait to see how you make it a home :)
I'm excited about all the videos of your new place. Recently I had moved with my boyfriend and little by little we're getting things for our home. I would love to get some of your things but i'm from México, and that's a great distance. 😭
Moving is bittersweet
This reminds me of when I moves, twice haha
You made such a beautiful home for yourselves and I can't wait to see what you do in your new place. I bought my first flat and move next month so I'm excited to put my stamp on it (even if I'm not good at DIY like you!) 🥰
BTW, where did you get that entry cabinet you can see in the last shot against the wall?
Sad cause it was so beautiful but so will your new place be!
I love around Frankfurt but I was at fleamarkets pretty often, my parents just to have their own booth ever, two month when I was a child.
Good luck in the new house! New memories on the way (:
I think a flea market booth sounds like a great idea! If you decide to sell at a flea market, it would be great if you would tell us, where you are going to sell. I don't know about selling but there is a big flea market in Riem which I find quite nice
Aww you actually work hard on this apartment
Excellent vibes wow 🤩
Oo I wish I could come there to see the live view of ur house.
♥️♥️♥️
The train part was i felt like I'm crying 😮💨😮💨
Te recomiendo una fregona y un cubo con escurridor... son una maravilla
昨天刚看到你DIY改造这个apartment， 今天就看到要搬家了🤣
It's always very difficult to leave an apartment, especially if, like me, you're sentimental. I left my first apartment 8 months ago after almost 8 years living in it. Passing the fridge reminded me of when I took the pictures out of mine, I cried so much when I realized I wouldn't be going back there again! A beautiful page is turning for you, a new adventure awaits you! It's going to be great you'll see!
I'm so sentimental! But I got so busy with all the packing, moving, painting that I didn't let myself have time to be sad. The first pang of sadness I got was when I saw the whole apartment empty :( But it's okay, it'll live in our memories!
@@cloudyhills Oh yes, a move is a hell of a job! In addition with the painting... It's so weird to see his apartment empty, it reminded me of my arrival and, like you, it seemed so much bigger once full! I kept the plans of my old apartment as a souvenir. You, it's cool, you have these videos!!! Can't wait to see the layout of the new one, it's going to be great ♥
Thank you and all your best
gahd i hope tenants here in the PH get fresh white walls too but nooooo we usually get horrendously neon walls and sometimes they're not even freshly painted even after an old tenant moves out
We need to hear Pat’s Donald Duck impression! 🙏🏻😂
i felt sad with you, you made the apartment so beautiful. but i know you will make your next home beautiful too, and it will be so much fun to watch what you and pat do 🙂good bye apartment 👋
This is so bittersweet
I think I will miss the green wall most of all………💕
i got emotional until ..... 9:24 hahahaha !
😂😂
Unmaking your appartment was like we new every corner of it, and reminded me of your making over videos of every room and diys ! I am sure the new house will be as amazing as this one ! 🤍🤍
Congratulation on your new house. It is always difficult leaving the only house behind and excited with your new one. Have fun together. I know all about it becauce i having been living in The Netherlands and was born in Singapore. XXX Janty
your voice is so cute 🥺
you can also sell by ebay 🤗
Although it’s great that you start a beautiful new chapter, so sad that everything had to be reverted to the original condition. Would be amazing if somebody could enjoy your talent. How big is the living room, btw? Felt much bigger when decorated than now seeing it empty!
I feel exactly the same 🤍 I love investing in my home decor because I wanna feel like home 🌷🤍
what is the brand, name of the tube you used for filling the nail holes?
May I ask how you color match white paint? I'm getting ready to do this soon and struggling to match the paint. Thanks!
Makes me want to move to Germany. My family originates from Germany. My mums brothers and my fathers brothers still live there. My cousins live in Switzerland.
