For those asking, yes I do have a shower! It’s in this bathroom, recessed into the wall right when you walk in. So glad everyone is enjoying the video 😻
i adore you but "exposing" your cotton buds in a washroom to show them off is not a good idea.Shoving dust and bacteria in your ear......No thanx! i think your guests will live without them on display my dear.
Okay, I’m not going to lie. When you first said you bought a $75 hook I was like ??? But then I saw her and was like !!! I think that was a 100% justifiable purchase.
or...you can take one of those long shelves you didn't use (paint it white) and hang it over the door and store your toilet paper up there! I also LOVE how this space turned out! So stinkin' cute!
I’m moving to a senior apartment where I intend to live till I leave the planet. Your design ideas will help me create a fun and serene space where I can continue to live my best life. Thank you 🙏🏻☯️
You're so lucky that your landlord let's you make so many changes! Tho let's be honest -- you're definitely improving the rental value, and at no cost to them.
She lives with her partner Ines... and without a TMI moment (ok maybe not) it is not a good idea to store anything near the toilet when you live with a guy. 🤦🏼♀️
@@DeirdreKnight1 HAHAHAHAHA that's the only reason I will NOT put toilet paper in a basket on the floor next 2 the toilet. I put the toilet paper in a basket on the back of the toilet's tank instead 🤣
Such great ideas in here! I'm super impressed by your minimal makeup collection. I do want to note that your blush/bronzer brush, and the cotton pads (basically anything you put on your face) should be in enclosed containers. Bacteria from the toilet evaporates into the air every time you lift the lid, and you don't want that on your face!
i just found this channel and it’s officially my favorite...but...i’ve been hit with a sudden surge of inspiration to redo my entire apartment at 11:45pm & i don’t have enough self control to wait til morning... looks like i won’t be getting any sleep tonight 🙃
I enjoy your work soooo much. Your camera never makes me dizzy, background music is not distracting or overwhelming, your taste and talent are impeccable. Go Alexandra!!!
I was a little judgy when you said you spent 75$ on a hook, but then you said you bought t from an artist and I was all in for supporting other artists. Plus it was a super unique and beautiful hook ❤️
Love your makeovers! Been binge watching since the beginning. It's so interesting to see these old videos compared to your recent ones. There is no evidence of Andrew's belongings at all in these reno videos....other than a toothbrush. Lol! Glad Noah made the cut! 😄
I don't mean to be negative, but I hate leaving stuff like toilet paper and qtips like that because I feel like it collects dust on things that you don't want dusty
I have watched SO many rental makeovers and I have to say this is one of the absolute best!!! So many beautiful yet practical storage solutions, down-to-earth and accessible design tips, so many personal touches but not overloaded with „useless“ decor items. Thanks so much for sharing!! ❤️
There are plenty of little cabinet and shelving units that are designed for under pedestal or 'floating sinks', but getting one that fits your particular sink and surrounding space can be a challenge. I looked for years for something, and finally, last year, I happened upon those triangular Ikea shelves she uses in the video; they *just* fit between my bathtub and toilet. But I arrange them turned the other way, so they meet in the middle and provide a straight bank of shelves in the front, on which I've put baskets that I can pull out like drawers. If you look at them on the Ikea website (RÅGRUND), you'll see that arrangement.
Because the basket with the hair tools, hides the fact that there’s hair tools, so it doesn’t take your eye away from the rest of the design of the bathroom.. on the other hand, if she switched it, peoples eyes would immediately go to the giant pile of toilet paper in a basket, which takes away from everything else in there
I feel like the baskets were in the right spots but the items should be switched. The large basket with the pompom-tassels is big enough to hold/hide all the toilet paper. The smaller basket could hold the hair tools, plus it would be hidden behind the door (when it's not closed).
All you need is a little oil of sorts even coconut oil melted and a good sos pad. it s just paint. Its such a nice bathroom but the floors was ignored.
The underside of the faucet also needs a good scrub. That mat is a trip hazard too. I would have used a larger mat with a rubber backing, washable of course. I’m not a Negative Nellie! She did a great job and I especially loved Melinda. Alexandra is very talented and has given me some great ideas for my own space.
Looks incredible as always!! You have such a gift and I'm so glad you're sharing it with others. Makes me want to make over our powder room! New mirror, new light and new toilet roll!
I always used to roll my eyes at rug pads thinking what a waste it was to have something you couldn't see and then I fell and almost hit my head on the tub. I learned my lesson
Or just use an old bath towel, one less thing you have to clean on the daily because the rug get full of dust. Just lay down a towel when you need it 😇
Alexandra: I absolutely adore how you "think out loud" when you're deciding a change. It helps us who are not used to thinking out of the box to discover how to "think out of the box". Thank you for sharing.
Your bathroom is so pretty yet functional. So many designs today are sterile and certainly don't say "Welcome"! Great job and inspired me to start mine. 🤗🤗🤗
Under my sink was open and I am not the most organized even with baskets, so I sewed a curtain and put up a little tiny rod. Hides all my junk perfectly.
Hello, Melinda looks great! Have you thought of adding a hook on the wall to hang the baskets low on the wall? This would give you the ability to sweep hair and dust off the floor without needing to move the baskets. Bathrooms need private storage, you are right!
The floor needs a shine! For old paint spills I used nail polish remover. The ones on a pad. Then I used a plastic scraper. I cleaned the grout as well.
You’re so adorable! I’m an interior designer in the states and you are teaching me that everything doesn’t have to be so darn difficult! I need to focus on more simple things. Lol
I like the idea for the first aid box. I bought a tin from the Habitat ReStore (it was originally for cookies for .50) that will be perfect. I will spray paint with white Rustoleum and make stencil for a red cross symbol. My other thought was to have my sister make me a vinyl first aid decal if I found a fancy one. Since I like to make things I think for the tissue I would have made a longer box with a hinged lid to keep the extra TP fresh and clean, sized to fit comfortably behind the door. Thanks for great ideas! ☺
It looks so pretty! Only thing I would change is that I would place a laundry hamper or something so that you can’t see the pipes behind the pedestal sink as you enter the room.
Suggestion::install a hook on the ceiling behind the door. Attach a boating rope that reaches almost to the floor. String the bathroom paper with the rope. Add a wooden stake at the bottom end of the rope once bathroom paper is strung up to keep it from falling.. Or use a POMPOM instead of a wooden stake.
Shout out to the Dymo gun label maker! My Dad used to use his in the 80s for everything! You would have loved his pegboard & glass jar storage system in his workshop for so many screws, nails, washers etc. I'd know those labels anywhere! Heather xo
Another brilliant video. There is tile paint you could use for the floors. This is inspiring me to get crackin on painting the interior of my house white.. got soo sick of painting but it makes a huge difference and is really easy to do! Thanks xo
omg I just found your channel, I'm planning to furnish my very first owned small studio flat and I adore you and your channel, you are such a cute happy soul with an amazing taste I'm learning a lot, thank you so much much love from Istanbul
I 💘 EVERYTHING! Since you DID ask. I must share my own, scathingly brilliant idea to solve a lack-o bathroom storage. I'm a nail color addict. Safe to say, I have a lot. At the thrift.... ok, Thrift store addict too.😘 Hunting those 70s wood accordion style cup holders. Maybe hack a bathroom towel/robe rack. I hot glue to sturdy it up to handle the extra weight. Primer, paint, wax seal, and hung it up. Worked perfectly AND adjusts to fit any space. Then spied an old generic wooden spice rack. It had holes to wall mount, and a flat bottom to sit stable on surfaces. I thought It'd be perfect to hang AND display all my fun happy toe color options! I kept looking n found 3 more! $1.00 each!! Paint, wax seal, mounted and loaded them with colorful toe joy. Omgosh they turned out better than I thought. Added BONUS! Since they stand, I can take down the rack with all my pedicure needs and head outside with headphones and peace. Ahhh.. quality me time. 😊
@@AlexandraGater OMGOSH! 😲😢🤧😊 You opened the door that inspired my "I need it handy, so make it pretty, or hide it" decor ideas. (or in your case, the gate!😁 "Gater's Design Gate" to inspiration (complete with pom-pom trim of course) Omg I'm just SO punny! 🤣😂 Thank you so much for all your help and inspiration 💖💖💖 btw... Did you pick up Hot Lover on that Morocco trip too? The added bonus find maybe? I see he isn't duty free either. 😘🤗 He IS missing his pom-pom trimmed tool belt tho!😂🤣😂
The bathroom look so much better with the make over and I love your organization ideas. The floor is pretty awful, if you get tired of looking at it maybe get a roll of vinyl floor and cut it to fit the space. It's an added investment but if you are there for a few years it would be worth it.
You’re so adorable! Just an opinion: You should think STRONGLY about getting a bob and fringe (like a French bob with bangs!) you would totally rock it and look (even more) AMAZING! ❤️
Hey ! I notice you have two cats living in a small apartment. I’d love to see a video on cat food & litter storage and hacks to keep that space clean and looking nice in a small space! I’m living in a small space and my cats can’t go outside (I have two, semi long hair just like you) and I’m finding it difficult to keep their space tidy! Love your makeover videos xxx
Thanks so much for all your advice. I want to redo my bathroom, and you have given me so much to think about. No one understood why I want to do this. But you have given me the motivation and inspiration I needed. Thanks! 😊
I have a tiny bathroom with a pedestal sink, and I used those triangular shelves from Ikea (but turned the other way, so it's straight in front) with white baskets. They made such a difference and they *just* fit between the bathtub and the toilet. Completely changed my bathroom. I like that tall, shallow cabinet. You could easily make extra shelves for it. But one question: Your cats don't shred the exposed pile of toilet paper rolls?
I'm really glad you did this video, I'm gonna move in a place where the bathroom has no storage at all (not even little shelves), so those last ones under the sink units seem perfect for it!
You have a good landlord. I can’t make any changes. Can’t even put picture hooks up. And if I use stick on ones, I know the crappy paint is going to peel off and I’m going to have to paint before I leave.
Sharon Rooney every video I’ve found that says rental friendly is like this! In my rental apartment, we’re not even allowed to put stick on hooks on the walls 😭 I can’t imagine my landlord ever agreeing to all this!
LOL come to my city, you’re lucky if you know your landlords last name. I’ve had to fix everything in my apartment or suffer the consequences of the random friend they send here to break stuff worse. I’ll paint stripes on the walls if I want at this point 😂
Depends, my UK Landlords never do quarterly checks & wouldn't notice if it was black & fluorescent dayglo pink! But then their property law knowledge is shaky at best, I've had to copy & send law off property law websites before they'd back down on evicting rather than do legally required fire safety repairs/other repairs.
Hello! I am polka dots lover too and DIY old lady. I came up with the idea for bathroom ...for storrage of nick nacks. Unfortunately I can not attach here a photo and I don't have your e-mail, so let me describe simple idea...very afordable one...I bought few woden boxes at Dollar tree shop from very thin plywood and than (as I am polka dots lover, as I said) I put on lids ceramic drawer knob in this pattern, It looks super cute and very handy. In an instant bathroom looks more tidy. Second thing: As I found at home some unused old frames...different stile, I put inside mirrors and I have 3 mirrors as group and it is really nice. Try it...you will be supprised how good it looks. Hi from Slovenia
Another thing you can do is use an ikea magnetic knife strip to hang your nail clippers and brow tweezers in the little cabinet. I also use magnetic clips I found at the dollar tree to hang face masks and samples.
For those asking, yes I do have a shower! It’s in this bathroom, recessed into the wall right when you walk in. So glad everyone is enjoying the video 😻
i adore you but "exposing" your cotton buds in a washroom to show them off is not a good idea.Shoving dust and bacteria in your ear......No thanx! i think your guests will live without them on display my dear.
Very pretty and practical upgrades. I noticed some paint droplets on the floor: use a razor blade to 'lift' them off the floor.
Where is the trash can from??? Thanks!💕
You are a SUPERSTAR, thank you for being you!!! Team GATER😍😍
What kind of succulent is that?!? I loveeeeee 🥺😍
You're the first person I've heard say they were glad a window looks out onto a brick wall.
Me 2...but after this video i kinda like the idea, the reflection from the mirror looks nice
No one can see in 😁
Rine Allison better than no natural light 💡 My bathroom in my rental was the same and I miss ANY WINDOW in many bathrooms these days
I live in NYC....she would love it here! 😂
Okay, I’m not going to lie. When you first said you bought a $75 hook I was like ??? But then I saw her and was like !!! I think that was a 100% justifiable purchase.
Melinda is adorable. 😄
She absolutely is! I need her in my life.
Is $75 the going rate for a hook-er these days? 😂
Melinda was worth it!!!
I’ve never seen anything like her and I want one
or...you can take one of those long shelves you didn't use (paint it white) and hang it over the door and store your toilet paper up there!
I also LOVE how this space turned out! So stinkin' cute!
Dana Michigan she had a lot so she would still have to store it elsewhere
But it could work for other people (also it might look not as cute)
I had the same thought. Maybe high on the facing wall and stack the TP up there. It is a bathroom, after all. Nothing wrong with seeing TP in it.
I’m moving to a senior apartment where I intend to live till I leave the planet. Your design ideas will help me create a fun and serene space where I can continue to live my best life. Thank you 🙏🏻☯️
You're so lucky that your landlord let's you make so many changes! Tho let's be honest -- you're definitely improving the rental value, and at no cost to them.
So the landlord is lucky!
That is exactly why the landlord allowed her to make it over.
okashi10 she would probably take most the stuff with her so it’s a win lose kinda for the landlord
okashi10 i would change it anyway.... as long as you leave/keep the original stuff you can put it back when you move out... 💁🏻♂️
I don't think they would mind if she wanted to improve the look, and I am sure if the landlord saw her makeover, the landlord would be pleased.
Love the outcome
She lives with her partner Ines... and without a TMI moment (ok maybe not) it is not a good idea to store anything near the toilet when you live with a guy. 🤦🏼♀️
@@DeirdreKnight1 maybe but toilet paper near the toilet makes much more sense than hot tools, imho ;)
Ines Celina 😂😂😂 So true.
That....is a GREAT idea.
@@DeirdreKnight1 HAHAHAHAHA that's the only reason I will NOT put toilet paper in a basket on the floor next 2 the toilet. I put the toilet paper in a basket on the back of the toilet's tank instead 🤣

"Peach emoji, bathroom" LOL yes we get it! Awesome makeover, very good ideas taken from it! Love the lady towel holder named Melinda
I don't mean to be negative, but I hate leaving stuff like toilet paper and qtips like that because I feel like it collects dust on things that you don't want dusty
Heela Wardak I feel the same way, so I use mason jars and keep the lid on!
Old candle jars too
@@PamsPrettyPlants I do too lol
I was gonna say the same lol she should’ve use a container that has a lid or some sort of cover
Exactly! 😬
Rewatching this in 2021 and wow you've come so far AG. And your viewers too! I feel like we grew along with you. Thank you for being you.

I have had a pedestal sink for 3 years and have never realized they made anything to function underneath them! Mind blown. Also, love Malinda!

@@Olive_O_Sudden I totally would but we are moving at the end of the month!
Why did You choose to put The basket with your hair tools near the toilet and the basket with toilet paper near the door and not the other way around?
Exactly .............
Because the basket with the hair tools, hides the fact that there’s hair tools, so it doesn’t take your eye away from the rest of the design of the bathroom.. on the other hand, if she switched it, peoples eyes would immediately go to the giant pile of toilet paper in a basket, which takes away from everything else in there

Talia Gonzalez, well that’s not very sanitary. 🤷🏻♀️
outloudkat, good idea!
You should deep clean the floors. Or ask the landlord to have them cleaned.
All you need is a little oil of sorts even coconut oil melted and a good sos pad. it s just paint. Its such a nice bathroom but the floors was ignored.
Sonia Moreira agree!! I can’t look at the floor 🙈 she need to get the floor cleaned. It’ll make a big difference
The floor is beautiful but just dirty
She Can Do It! I wouldn’t take my slippers off in that bathroom! Nasty floor!
The underside of the faucet also needs a good scrub. That mat is a trip hazard too. I would have used a larger mat with a rubber backing, washable of course. I’m not a Negative Nellie! She did a great job and I especially loved Melinda. Alexandra is very talented and has given me some great ideas for my own space.
Really nice job. I would have cleaned the paint off the floor and repainted the grout, rental or not.
Melinda is the best!
Yes, I would definitely have spent time cleaning up the floor before buying anything new.
Looks incredible as always!! You have such a gift and I'm so glad you're sharing it with others. Makes me want to make over our powder room! New mirror, new light and new toilet roll!
Elle Lindquist love you!! 💕💕
The light fixture you chose for the wall feels like it belongs on a ceiling....not feeling it personally but the rest is great!
I just threw similar fixtures out and bought new ones from Craigslist in the packaging for $25 . I made the right decision
She is SO talented, but yes I agree w you there
I loved living on the 3rd floor! We had so much privacy. And all of our windows were the same height as the trees, so everyone window had greenery!
As long as you move your plant before you turn on your candle
Please put a rug pad under your throw rug. Bathroom falls and slips can be deadly.
I always used to roll my eyes at rug pads thinking what a waste it was to have something you couldn't see and then I fell and almost hit my head on the tub. I learned my lesson
A kid just died because he slipped and hit his head on the toilet. This is good advice.
Or just use an old bath towel, one less thing you have to clean on the daily because the rug get full of dust. Just lay down a towel when you need it 😇

The IKEA shelves for pedestal sinks! Brilliant!
...when the big fluffy cat walked in front of you and sat down with her back to the cami, hahaha, beauty
I LOVE Society 6!. I buy gifts for people all the time. I really like that it pays the actual artist that designed the art.
Under my sink was open and I am not the most organized even with baskets, so I sewed a curtain and put up a little tiny rod. Hides all my junk perfectly.
Nicole Faith THANK U FOR THIS, BRB WHILE I GO BUY A CURTAIN AND ROD 🤣🤣🤤
WOW! What a difference. Love the storage under the sink suggestion. Brilliant!
Hello, Melinda looks great! Have you thought of adding a hook on the wall to hang the baskets low on the wall? This would give you the ability to sweep hair and dust off the floor without needing to move the baskets. Bathrooms need private storage, you are right!
The floor needs a shine! For old paint spills I used nail polish remover. The ones on a pad. Then I used a plastic scraper. I cleaned the grout as well.
You’re so adorable! I’m an interior designer in the states and you are teaching me that everything doesn’t have to be so darn difficult! I need to focus on more simple things. Lol
I like the idea for the first aid box. I bought a tin from the Habitat ReStore (it was originally for cookies for .50) that will be perfect. I will spray paint with white Rustoleum and make stencil for a red cross symbol. My other thought was to have my sister make me a vinyl first aid decal if I found a fancy one. Since I like to make things I think for the tissue I would have made a longer box with a hinged lid to keep the extra TP fresh and clean, sized to fit comfortably behind the door. Thanks for great ideas! ☺
The sink shelves are FAB!
Great idea for the hair tools! Like, "how did I not think of this simple idea for my super small bathroom!"
Malinda is GORGEOUS !!!!
The ideas. The inspiration. It’s all just pouring in!
It looks so pretty! Only thing I would change is that I would place a laundry hamper or something so that you can’t see the pipes behind the pedestal sink as you enter the room.
This is hands down my fave video! Love the IKEA slim storage cabinet...so functional and discrete! Great job :)
Love the idea of putting the products in amber jars! Love the idea of having all “aesthetic” products
I have a tiny bathroom! My biggest tip is to use a shoe pocket organizer behind the door!
xoxomaxine1 such a great idea!
What a cute bathroom! Malinda was definitely worth the splurge, she would make me smile every day.
Bethan Price she totally does! I’m glad you like her too Bethan!
So fresh and practical! Love your channel and your creativity, great product ideas!
Suggestion::install a hook on the ceiling behind the door. Attach a boating rope that reaches almost to the floor. String the bathroom paper with the rope. Add a wooden stake at the bottom end of the rope once bathroom paper is strung up to keep it from falling.. Or use a POMPOM instead of a wooden stake.
That yellow Lois dingy. I love the white. It looks. Bright n big.👍👍👍
Love watching you decorate! You just seem to put everything together so easily! Love how you get so excited over the littlest things! 🤣I do too! 🤣
Love that slim corner cabinet!
Would you try a peel and stick flooring option? I think that would be be great for the floors!
You always have good information. I like that 4 in cabinet.
It looks great! I love those little shelves that go under the sink, I HATE pedestal sinks because of the lack of storage so that's a great solution.

Your videos make me soooooo happy! Cozy cozy cozy!
I have a tiny bathroom with a pedestal sink, and I used those triangular shelves from Ikea (but turned the other way, so it's straight in front) with white baskets. They made such a difference and they *just* fit between the bathtub and the toilet. Completely changed my bathroom.
I like that tall, shallow cabinet. You could easily make extra shelves for it. But one question: Your cats don't shred the exposed pile of toilet paper rolls?
I legit had watched like 10 of your videos before this one and I still hadn't subscribed but that hook comment, so relatable.
I love Kaye Blegvads work, so I'm not surprised you got that hook. 😍 bathroom looks great.
Still iffy on the light fixture. You enjoy it, so that is all that matters! Bathroom looks great, and I love Malinda, she's quite sassy.
Just came across your channel (subscribed!) and found so much inspiration for my upcoming rental bathroom reno! Great ideas all around!
I love the hidden cabinet.
I love, love, love, the art gallery entrance!! It sets the tone for the main space. Another beautiful home! WOW! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽😍😍😍
Love the Melinda hook, now I know what to get my daughter. 😁
Nice! I'd probably switch the baskets around- that TP pile is well within the "Exiting the shower" splash zone. 🤣
Love the print of peaches. ......super cool😉, Marty M
omg; i absolutely loved the finished result. so cute!!
How are you able to put so many holes in the wall? and change the paint color of shelves if its a rental?
I just found your channel and i am loving it . Keep up the good work girl ! Your diys are good for indian room makeover as well which is awesome
I'm really glad you did this video, I'm gonna move in a place where the bathroom has no storage at all (not even little shelves), so those last ones under the sink units seem perfect for it!

Loving these DIYs! You've influenced so much of our style on a budget! I'm so thankful!
You have a good landlord. I can’t make any changes. Can’t even put picture hooks up. And if I use stick on ones, I know the crappy paint is going to peel off and I’m going to have to paint before I leave.
I'm loving the amber jars
“Renter friendly” and you removed things from the wall, painted, drilled into the walls, changed fixtures...??
That so wouldn’t fly in a rental here!
Sharon Rooney every video I’ve found that says rental friendly is like this! In my rental apartment, we’re not even allowed to put stick on hooks on the walls 😭
I can’t imagine my landlord ever agreeing to all this!
@Taylor Racist much?
LOL come to my city, you’re lucky if you know your landlords last name. I’ve had to fix everything in my apartment or suffer the consequences of the random friend they send here to break stuff worse. I’ll paint stripes on the walls if I want at this point 😂
@@PamsPrettyPlants I believe in the UK we have a right to know who our landlord is - wow, I can't imagine not knowing who you rent from.
Depends, my UK Landlords never do quarterly checks & wouldn't notice if it was black & fluorescent dayglo pink! But then their property law knowledge is shaky at best, I've had to copy & send law off property law websites before they'd back down on evicting rather than do legally required fire safety repairs/other repairs.
You brought life into this bathroom!!
Alexandra, I love wake up on Saturdays and see your ideas!!! Thanks 😍😍😉
Functional and beautiful!
Hello! I am polka dots lover too and DIY old lady. I came up with the idea for bathroom ...for storrage of nick nacks. Unfortunately I can not attach here a photo and I don't have your e-mail, so let me describe simple idea...very afordable one...I bought few woden boxes at Dollar tree shop from very thin plywood and than (as I am polka dots lover, as I said) I put on lids ceramic drawer knob in this pattern, It looks super cute and very handy. In an instant bathroom looks more tidy. Second thing: As I found at home some unused old frames...different stile, I put inside mirrors and I have 3 mirrors as group and it is really nice. Try it...you will be supprised how good it looks. Hi from Slovenia
Unfortunately, many of this things would never have been possible in rental apartments in my area. :(
This turned out so cute and functional!
What a beautiful bathroom renovation 😍 great job
I love your channel ! :D I am excited to upgrade my new place and I am getting a lot really cute ideas from your video
Another thing you can do is use an ikea magnetic knife strip to hang your nail clippers and brow tweezers in the little cabinet. I also use magnetic clips I found at the dollar tree to hang face masks and samples.
