Team horizontal, and personally I would hang a curtain in front of the clothes wardrobe to separate and look less clustered when you sleep (maybe just one panel) it could look great as a kind of headboard aswell even tho it's fabric.
Try the horizontal position for a while and see what you can do with the extra floor space. I'm thinking a cute rug and round white table to do your crafting and sewing. For me, the extra floor space literally opens up a new living area. But whatever layout you choose, I'm sure you are going to make it functional and cute
I love love love your usage of colour whether it's in your wardrobe or decor, you really have an eye for using colour without it looking overwhelming. I feel like it would be hard for anyone to get depressed in your apartment.
Omg thank you so much!!! The first time around when I decorated my place my sis was like what's your color palette? And i was like ummmmm rainbow??? Hahaha i just want me space to be filled with things that make me happy 💕💕💕
All my life, I haven't really had an idol but watching you willed and made a way to bring that desk.... Girl.... GOALS. I need your mindset. Working on it though
I'm soooo happy you finally have an office and an office chair, as an editor i was in pain watching you edit. I love that youre taking your time and finding the pieces you want and need second hand! Cant wait to see the full makeover :D
Manifesting that penthouse for you! And I love what you're doing to your apartment. Re-doing my place or even getting a new lamp always makes me feel happy and motivates me lol 🩵
1) I’m team Bed Horizontal for sure 👍 2) Brilliant use of the luggage to transport the furniture 💪 I admire your ingenuity and will! 3) Girl, do you have a ghost at 18:59 cause the lights are crazy 👻
omg im so glad you finally have a real desk/chair to work at. every time you showed yourself working at the kitchen counter I cried for your back. Excited to see how it all turns out!
Turn the shelf so the short side is against the wall and the long side along the bed (keep the bed the regular way) that way it separates spaces better and you are not that crowded on the desk area! Great video!
oh thank you so much!! I was dealing with suuuper oily hair after I tried this new shampoo- and I didnt know what to do, so I did this look! hehe thank you again!
When you spoke about your priorities changing once you got albie it warmed my heart. You are such a good dog mommy to Albie! I also have a dog with some challenging behaviors and you really inspire me in those times I just want to sit down, cry and give up on her to keep on going ❤
Can relate to this a lot I completely redid my apartment that I've been living in for 4 years after binge watching dear modern's Feng shui videos, I love it!
Omg yeah i see his videos pop up on my reels feed at the time!!! Also continuously rearranging our living space over time I think will help us to keep loving our space- and keep it fresh!
I think having an office space and chair w back support will be a real game changer for you. Can’t wait to see the other updates you do. I love revamping my space with furniture / decor I already have.
Dude i LOVE being in my lil office space!! I spend most of my time upstairs now, it's looking so cozy rn and we're not even half way done! So excited to get find all my other pieces :)
Natalie, it would be amazing if you made a series where you redesign rooms/spaces for your viewers. ❤ That would be so cool because you are so creative, and you have a unique style and how you use color. 😍 It will be Chefs kiss! 💋 I am sure that numerous viewers would love to make use of your advice, just like the stylings videos!!! I can't wait and already manifesting this into reality 😂😂😂🤞🤞🤞
that karot app had you going on ADVENTURES 🤭 the desk had me shook cause you wheeled that and then you said hold on and went and got a chair??!! i was like my anxiety could never let me 😭 but im so happy to see you get your space nice and comfy! love how you do the bright neutrals and your signature pops of color! can’t wait to see the updates or if this becomes a series cause I LOVED IT 🫶🏽. also big props to you for going out there and thrifting your furniture pieces like YOURE STRONG FOR THAT
I have been living minimalist, I know you are a maximalist and love it as well. But I love that you are creating a home with more space, it gonna be amazing. I live in NYC and although my space isn’t that small. I teach online yoga from my living room, so I know letting go of furniture I did have space to do what I need to do. As well my apartment is so dark so I painted all my walls white to be brighter and love the small changes I have done. As I did a mural in one of my wall so it have some color and not just plain. Excited to see how your creating your new spaces
I enjoyed watching this video so much !! I apperciate you showing how it can be frustrating not having a car to move stuff ( I relate ! ). But you did not let it stop you Natalie ( using that cart (?) Was genius ! ) !! I love the changes you made !!
Dang! You did the things! Thank you for sharing! I vote for your bed to go the way such that you are facing the stairs/entry to the space when you lie down.
If you want to create the illusion of a separate space, turn the glass shelf vertically. That might be it. I have a small space so I've researched a bunch on maximizing space and creating the illusion of different areas. Can't wait to see how it turns out! Im still revamping my room a bit. Good Luck to us both! lol
Ooo yes ive heard that suggestion-you guys are all so smart!! I didnt even think about that hahaha. Thanks so much for watching homie!! And yes good luck to you!!! Making over my space has been making me soooooo happy like I'm falling in love with my space all over again 😭😭😭😭💕💕💕💕💕 i hope you are teww!!!
Ohhhhh myyy goshhhhh! The tape hack for holes is SO simple and perfect!!! Idk why I never thought of that?!? I’m literally so scared to see my walls bare when I move out cause they’re COVERED in holes from tryna put up artwork w/o properly measuring🫣
DUDE I KNOW!!!!!! when i saw it in one of her videos I yelled "WHAT?!" lmao. i was so disappointed in myself bwahahaha like I know my brain could have figured that out!!! hahaha. we will have to do alot of spackling lol
I think that if you are still set on the bed frame wait till you get it to decide the bed position, also I feel that as a fashion lover if you do choose to have a bed with storage it will come handy in the future. Can’t wait to see the place I’m excited! 🎉
I relate to the chaotic buying second hand 😂 what an adventure picking things up by foot and in the subway… but we make it work right !! Can’t wait to see the rest of the makeover !
Love the couch! I like the bed long ways against the wall, if you add some cute throw pillows then it’s another sitting area when you’re not sleeping. Finally, I love your tenacity! As some one who has lived both in the U.S. and in South Korea without a car, I really appreciated the clips of your furniture shopping hacks ❤😂🎉.
That office chair looks so good! Glad it was only $20. If only we had an app like carrot here in the states. I’m too scared to shop or sell on Facebook marketplace. Just doesn’t feel safe… But once the entire place is finished, I would love to see it! ❤
Oh really? Ive only really seen people just love fb marketplace, but yeah if that's how it makes you feel then dont go thru with it. I would suggest if you are selling /buying something, then to exchange it in an area with alot of foot traffic so ur not alone 💕
So much fun! You should use your clothing as wall decorations on hangers, they r so cute and you can change them out to change the mood. Make sure any furniture you bring in can at least do double or triple duty (coffee table plus hidden storage), use more vertical shelving, no need to buy already made stuff, just the extra wood pieces at ikea and brackets, you can paint them any colour you want ❤
Yaay glad you liked it!!!! Yeah all of my things in my place are multi use cause it's small space and we need to maximize it!!! I'd love to add in shelves but in Korea you actually dont ever drill into your walls- also everything has wallpaper too 😣😣 for my place my walls are concrete so I could even drill if I wanted to, the columns that I drill my shelves into I just did bc it's up high and out of reg eye level and that is also dry wall so I'll be able to put some spackle on it later! :)
I like your bed in an horizontal way, as you can maximize your space! You inspire me to DIY, I have been trying to redo my kitchen. That karrot app seems amazing, I want one like that in japan haha
I love this! I have been on the same journey redoing my space. For the shelf with colored glass you can just get cling film and apply it to the underside instead of getting new glass, it's really easy to put on!
Im so excited to see what else you do! Really proud of you for making changes, sticking to your budget and not compromising in your design vision. It gave me so many ideas, hopefully ill be able to put it to use once I move out
You are hilarious! I like the space in the room with the bed horizontal, but don’t live how it looks with your head basically in your closet, so it’s really about what makes most sense for you. 😊
If you leave the bed long against the wall...You could either mount a shelf(with a U cutout above the outlets...or do a fold up shelf. A kinda night table/ charging platform. Is there another outlet by yer desk? Or,do you share the loft electric with those two plugs by yer bed? I look forward to seeing more of your re-do☺️
I can't drill any holes into the walls- they're concrete. I drilled on the side columns cause it was drywall and it's up and away from view so hopefully when I patch up the holes when I leave- it wont look noticeable! :) what I'm doin these days is actually leaving my phone downstairs when i go to sleep so I dont get sucked into endless hours of scrolling before bed! I think i might use the modular shelf that I got as a lil side table if anything! 😀
Ohhh so relatable 😂 I had so many moments that I went to ikea and did not realise how heavy something would be to carry back home because I also have no car 😂😂😂 taking twice as long to get back and cursing my way up the stairs of my building
So excited to see your new space! Not sure if this would work, but you might be able to get some colored tint and wrap your glass shelves a color instead of buying new shelves. Just a thought :)
yess brekkies! the most important meal of tha dayyy!! and omg wow, that must be really exciting though! I love decorating, and I think it's better to take it slow so then you'll be able to make better decisions, and see your vision come together more smoothly~~ Good luck to the both of us !! hehe :)
@@YOHOMEGIRL funny you say that, because having a filling breakfast has been my key to losing weight (because I stop snacking when I have a good breakfast) I actually have a few of your apartment tours on a design playlist-I play that playlist when I decorate or do chores to get inspiration 🙂 plus, you like colour 🙂 I hate dull rooms
omg just saw this! and yeah when you have a good filling brekkies it'll hold you till lunch time hehe. and oh snaps really?! wow thank you for that!!! I also hate dull rooms like the same white, beige, neutrals im like nuuuuupe!
I'm so excited for this series, it's going to look so so so good and I can already tell how much happier you are with the upgrades you've got going on!!
Love video! I'm also doing a room change, and I love watching the hunt for the second hand finds. I have a small room, and actually I found that putting my bed horizontal has saved me a lot of space. I do sacrifice the want of a cute headboard, but I actually use big and small pillows/decor pillows/cute large stuff animals to make it look like a day bed of sorts. Def team horizontal! You can make it work and still cute :)
The mistakes with the shelves hurttt to watch cause Ive been there 😭 . But its so awesome to see the work youve done so far! It really is a slow and steady process and its improved so much already ❤
I do like the horizontal position for ur bed. I meant, it seems less aesthetic, but definitely maximize space in urr bedroom. I wouldn´t mind saying bye to the aesthetic situation for more space bc u can do other stuff when u have mor space. Creativity comes in spacefull and open minds, think about it. Love what ur doing. Sending u good luck!!!!
I'll be moving soon, so I've been taking notes lol. Not sure how your coffee table looks, but I think having alblie's bed under the coffee table, could save space as well. I'm definitely team bed horizontal! Only because I love having space that's free for anything you could do. I'm assuming you won't spend much time on your bed, as you'll either be working at your desk, downstairs, or out.
I WIIIISSH i could put albies bed underneath the table but it's much too low and I dont know if its possible to change out the legs??? It's quite heavy so I guess I'd have to get super tall ones. Then comes the other challenge of-me constantly moving that table, when im watching something on my laptop, or eating on the couch, filming etc. So imma try to just do the wood panel on the closet, hopefully that works well enough!!!
We stayed in a studio apartment for 3 years, 2 people and 2 cats, until a house with a yard came up for rent in our area for super cheap. That penthouse will happen!! Now we're saving for our own house.
I have an ikea bed with storage under it and i love it but I don't live in korea or a loft area. I recommend getting measurements to make sure a bed frame fits and find one with the best storage and one you can get up those stairs
I’ve had my bathroom shelf rack thingy, through 3 apartments (long story) and my current apt is the only one where I could actually get it in my bathroom. It does not, however, fit over my toilet. The struggle is real, my dude! 😂
dude same!! with every new piece I'm adding into my place, I just get so excited! She still had a long way to go, but it's gonna be a fun journey sharing it with you!!!
I can relate to this so much 😂 I love alexandra gater. I've done many DIY projects since the pandemic started. If you have a wobbly shelf, you can get some small wood planks and use wood glue to make it sturdier. I have learned the hard way too many times especially with Ikea furniture. I know korean apartments like yours have storage already which is great, but I'm always team storage bed. I wish I had gone with that before buying a platform bed that's all wood. I'd rather have the storage at this point but lesson learned for the future if I decide to replace it. I've wallpapered a few things before but never painted my apartment so I'm excited to see how it turns out for you!!
Ooo I will try out the small wood planks!!! Thank you for the tip!!! And yeah I desperately need some storage, so I think either a storage bed or bed that has space underneath would do well. I am so excited to paint my wall paper but also I am most nervous for it too hahaha. Im trying to see if I can find any paint tins and brushes on the Karrot app but nothing thus far!!!
@@YOHOMEGIRL yes! I’m sure you can do measurements and go to a hardware/lumber store and have them cut one if necessary. Good luck with the paint! I’m excited to see what you come up with!!
I would definitely keep the bed like that. So much more space! Also someone already suggested maybe adding some curtains in front of the closet/ clothing rail in the loft? I’m also moving in a week and can’t wait to figure out a new space ✨
I've always wondered how you survived all those editing hours with no back support! 😢 I am so glad you have a chair now! Also, bed horizontal, of course.
I loooooved the makeover, amazing ❤ Why don’t you put some curtains on the clothing area up there? That could make the area more “clean” to put some cute and colorful stuff!
Have you thought about bringing the desk forward by 1 inch. I'm sure you're trying to utilise every bit of space but aligning the front of the desk with the front of the shelf might create a nicer harmony with the lines of the furniture. Give it a try! I did this with my bookshelf and it made a small but noticeable difference and was worth sacrificing that little bit of space.
hmm they still wouldnt be in line with each other there's about 7 in difference ;; - ;; but I think not putting them so close to each other has helped a bit heh thanks so much for watching Adelle!!
Your videos are so relaxing. I had such a bad day today and this really helped. Thanks girl❤❤ also would it be possible for you to do a video about tips for starting a youtube channel or even tiktok? I'm moving to indonesia soon and I'd love to start one!! But I don't know how to start and I'm kind of camera shy but I've been wanting to do this for years now! I just want to share a bit of my world with one or two people 😊
Yessss! You have such a cool apartment (or at least the loft style is so different that what we typically have in the US) so it will interesting to see how you make it over! Also love a good thrift challenge. And I so agree about the Alexandra Gater videos -- her series has made me a lot more confident about redoing my own space. So, can't wait for the rest of the series and to see how your apartment turns out! :)
Luckily Korea has great public transportation cause there is NO WAY i could have done this in the states (except for probably nyc) . Deffo the heavy furniture is where things got tricky but we made it work! There's also services where you can rent the type of van/truck that can fit whatever it is ur picking up and someone will drive there for you. However ya girl is trying to do everything for the lowest priceee- so imma just pick it up myself!haha
I loved this one!!!! I too am in the process of switching up my space and it was really inspiring! I love that you designed it and are finding the perfect pieces too!
Maybe for the glass shelves you could buy some glass foil? they sell them in so many colours and you could like cut out different shapes and patterns. This is assuming it’s not easy to find actual coloured glass 😅
ooh that could be cool! For these shelves they do sell different color glasses it's not craazy expensive 19k / 14 bucks but yeah that's definitely something I'll purchase later on (once these apt makeover videos start popping off and the adsense comes thru hahaha 🙏🙏🙏)
in regards to your bathroom shelf, i wonder if you could get cheap like tubberware and put it on the floor (opening on the bottom) and place the "feet" of the shelf on them for added height?
That's what I had planned to do but then the shelf still needed that X bracket in the back for support so it couldn't be done 😣 but welp we got there in the end!!!
guuuuurl haha, you know I thought about it buuut, I think that would be waaay too big of a project to do here in Korea without a car and without even a drill (I had to borrow that from a friend.. and she no longer has it lol). But yeah I do need some type of storage or like space to store stuff ;; w ;;
What if you have the bed moved side ways and then you move the dresser flat against the other wall and then you could moves the clothes over to the side a bi and then could do a headboard if you wanted still
To be honest, if you put more house/renovation/crafts videos, I see your entire brand/TH-cam exploding. I love your content, always have. But I extra enjoyed this video. ◡̈
Are we team bed regular schmegular, or team bed horizontal ? lolol I think I know what team I am! hahaha
Team horizontal!
Team horizontal, and personally I would hang a curtain in front of the clothes wardrobe to separate and look less clustered when you sleep (maybe just one panel) it could look great as a kind of headboard aswell even tho it's fabric.
Horizontal! I love how much it opens up the space. Everything is looking so adorable :)
Try the horizontal position for a while and see what you can do with the extra floor space. I'm thinking a cute rug and round white table to do your crafting and sewing.
For me, the extra floor space literally opens up a new living area.
But whatever layout you choose, I'm sure you are going to make it functional and cute
@@camcamillefolksI thought the same about the curtains!
I love love love your usage of colour whether it's in your wardrobe or decor, you really have an eye for using colour without it looking overwhelming. I feel like it would be hard for anyone to get depressed in your apartment.

giiiirl same HEREEEEEEEE!!! hahah i really want to make the lil office space cute, but we'll see what we can do with what we got!!!
Manifesting that penthouse for you! And I love what you're doing to your apartment. Re-doing my place or even getting a new lamp always makes me feel happy and motivates me lol 🩵
Can't wait to see the finished updated space!
Yay me teww haha

The desk and the shelf and turning the bed around upstairs made such a difference

yess brekkies! the most important meal of tha dayyy!! and omg wow, that must be really exciting though! I love decorating, and I think it's better to take it slow so then you'll be able to make better decisions, and see your vision come together more smoothly~~ Good luck to the both of us !! hehe :)
@@YOHOMEGIRL funny you say that, because having a filling breakfast has been my key to losing weight (because I stop snacking when I have a good breakfast) I actually have a few of your apartment tours on a design playlist-I play that playlist when I decorate or do chores to get inspiration 🙂 plus, you like colour 🙂 I hate dull rooms
omg just saw this! and yeah when you have a good filling brekkies it'll hold you till lunch time hehe. and oh snaps really?! wow thank you for that!!! I also hate dull rooms like the same white, beige, neutrals im like nuuuuupe!
I'm so excited for this series, it's going to look so so so good and I can already tell how much happier you are with the upgrades you've got going on!!
Dude seriously!!!!! I'll talk abt it more in the 2nd episode but seriously my room feels so cozy now 😭😭😭😭💕
Love video! I'm also doing a room change, and I love watching the hunt for the second hand finds. I have a small room, and actually I found that putting my bed horizontal has saved me a lot of space. I do sacrifice the want of a cute headboard, but I actually use big and small pillows/decor pillows/cute large stuff animals to make it look like a day bed of sorts. Def team horizontal! You can make it work and still cute :)
Girl you sure a trooper!! Love you showed it all!! Love
Homie for the discounted price- ya girl will do it all!!! Hahahah
this video had me ENGROSSED. looking forward to more eps 💕
omg that is so good to hear!!!! I'm so excited to show you what other changes I've done!!!
The mistakes with the shelves hurttt to watch cause Ive been there 😭 . But its so awesome to see the work youve done so far!
It really is a slow and steady process and its improved so much already ❤
dude srslyyyyy so sad hahaha. && Thank you sososo much!!!
I do like the horizontal position for ur bed. I meant, it seems less aesthetic, but definitely maximize space in urr bedroom. I wouldn´t mind saying bye to the aesthetic situation for more space bc u can do other stuff when u have mor space. Creativity comes in spacefull and open minds, think about it. Love what ur doing. Sending u good luck!!!!
I'll be moving soon, so I've been taking notes lol. Not sure how your coffee table looks, but I think having alblie's bed under the coffee table, could save space as well. I'm definitely team bed horizontal! Only because I love having space that's free for anything you could do. I'm assuming you won't spend much time on your bed, as you'll either be working at your desk, downstairs, or out.
I WIIIISSH i could put albies bed underneath the table but it's much too low and I dont know if its possible to change out the legs??? It's quite heavy so I guess I'd have to get super tall ones. Then comes the other challenge of-me constantly moving that table, when im watching something on my laptop, or eating on the couch, filming etc.
So imma try to just do the wood panel on the closet, hopefully that works well enough!!!
We stayed in a studio apartment for 3 years, 2 people and 2 cats, until a house with a yard came up for rent in our area for super cheap. That penthouse will happen!! Now we're saving for our own house.
I have an ikea bed with storage under it and i love it but I don't live in korea or a loft area. I recommend getting measurements to make sure a bed frame fits and find one with the best storage and one you can get up those stairs
yeah fo sho, luckily my loft area is taller than usual, so I'll be able to still sit up comfortably on my bed with a bed frame :)
nathalie you should have let a sister know i would have helped you move that desk!!! 😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️ strong woman power tho we love to see it 💪🏼💪🏼⚡️⚡️⚡️
I am a stubborn Leo and I think i can do it all myself hahahahaha.
I’ve had my bathroom shelf rack thingy, through 3 apartments (long story) and my current apt is the only one where I could actually get it in my bathroom. It does not, however, fit over my toilet. The struggle is real, my dude! 😂
Nuuuuuuuuuuuu. Hmm maybe get some cement blocks to put underneath it so it can get elevated ????
I loved this!!!❤❤❤ I love shopping secondhand for home stuff. You can find the best deals.
yeah! i love just refreshing the page and seeing what pops up!
Cant wait to see the reveal ♥
dude same!! with every new piece I'm adding into my place, I just get so excited! She still had a long way to go, but it's gonna be a fun journey sharing it with you!!!
Can’t wait!!!
hope ya enjoyed it Chrystal! Thanks for making it to the premiere!!
I’m happy your place is coming together the way you envisioned it ❤ Def team horizontal for the bed. We love extra space lol
Yes! Thank you!!!
Good work! It was a lot of effort but came out great! Cant wait for the room tour!
Thanks so much!!! I've been so happy with the changes that I've done!!
I can relate to this so much 😂 I love alexandra gater. I've done many DIY projects since the pandemic started. If you have a wobbly shelf, you can get some small wood planks and use wood glue to make it sturdier. I have learned the hard way too many times especially with Ikea furniture. I know korean apartments like yours have storage already which is great, but I'm always team storage bed. I wish I had gone with that before buying a platform bed that's all wood. I'd rather have the storage at this point but lesson learned for the future if I decide to replace it. I've wallpapered a few things before but never painted my apartment so I'm excited to see how it turns out for you!!
Ooo I will try out the small wood planks!!! Thank you for the tip!!! And yeah I desperately need some storage, so I think either a storage bed or bed that has space underneath would do well. I am so excited to paint my wall paper but also I am most nervous for it too hahaha. Im trying to see if I can find any paint tins and brushes on the Karrot app but nothing thus far!!!
@@YOHOMEGIRL yes! I’m sure you can do measurements and go to a hardware/lumber store and have them cut one if necessary. Good luck with the paint! I’m excited to see what you come up with!!
I'm currently arranging my tiny living room and this video pops up... Girl you are the best
Omg woohoo, great minds think alike!!
I would definitely keep the bed like that. So much more space! Also someone already suggested maybe adding some curtains in front of the closet/ clothing rail in the loft? I’m also moving in a week and can’t wait to figure out a new space ✨
I love your videos, I’m excited to see how you recreate your space!
Yay! Thank you Adriana!!!
omg I've been so excited for this!
Same sammeeeeeee
I've always wondered how you survived all those editing hours with no back support! 😢 I am so glad you have a chair now! Also, bed horizontal, of course.
Cause I am young but I know that's not gonna last forever and i gotta take care of my back 😭😭
I'm sure Alexandra Gater has mistake moments like you did but edits out the frustration....that which doesn't break you makes you stronger!
Aw thank you Pricilla ♡♡♡♡
I loooooved the makeover, amazing ❤ Why don’t you put some curtains on the clothing area up there? That could make the area more “clean” to put some cute and colorful stuff!
Yeah fo sho!!!!
Cannot wait for the next episode.
Same! Hehe.
Aaand I was also working on a stool for a year, and it was a huuuuge change when I bought my chair. You’re back is gonna love it! Hahahah
Dude srsly-my lower back felt like I had a cooling pack on it.. it was like omgg finally we're not bent!!! Haha
Have you thought about bringing the desk forward by 1 inch. I'm sure you're trying to utilise every bit of space but aligning the front of the desk with the front of the shelf might create a nicer harmony with the lines of the furniture. Give it a try! I did this with my bookshelf and it made a small but noticeable difference and was worth sacrificing that little bit of space.
hmm they still wouldnt be in line with each other there's about 7 in difference ;; - ;; but I think not putting them so close to each other has helped a bit heh thanks so much for watching Adelle!!
You should try buying tinted window film to change the color of the glass shelves!
ooo that could be cool!
For the shelf, instead of getting colored glass maybe you can stick on one of those colored window films? Just an idea!
oo very true!!!
Excited to see all of it when everything comes together. The vision looks great so can’t wait to see the final look.
Your videos are so relaxing. I had such a bad day today and this really helped. Thanks girl❤❤ also would it be possible for you to do a video about tips for starting a youtube channel or even tiktok? I'm moving to indonesia soon and I'd love to start one!! But I don't know how to start and I'm kind of camera shy but I've been wanting to do this for years now! I just want to share a bit of my world with one or two people 😊
Yessss! You have such a cool apartment (or at least the loft style is so different that what we typically have in the US) so it will interesting to see how you make it over! Also love a good thrift challenge. And I so agree about the Alexandra Gater videos -- her series has made me a lot more confident about redoing my own space. So, can't wait for the rest of the series and to see how your apartment turns out! :)
Having no car to retrieve those marketplace finds would spike my anxiety. Best believe imma binge all your videos 💖😊
Luckily Korea has great public transportation cause there is NO WAY i could have done this in the states (except for probably nyc) . Deffo the heavy furniture is where things got tricky but we made it work! There's also services where you can rent the type of van/truck that can fit whatever it is ur picking up and someone will drive there for you. However ya girl is trying to do everything for the lowest priceee- so imma just pick it up myself!haha
Love this vid!!! Can’t wait to see more house diy/decor videos. I also think you should move the bed horizantally!
thank you Vivian!!! Yeah that's what I'm gonna do heheh thanks for watching homie!!! I will see you in the next one!
Loved this video ❤
Thank you!!
I loved this one!!!! I too am in the process of switching up my space and it was really inspiring! I love that you designed it and are finding the perfect pieces too!
I don't have insomnia and I love sleepovers, we should be friends 👯
Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyy
Maybe for the glass shelves you could buy some glass foil? they sell them in so many colours and you could like cut out different shapes and patterns. This is assuming it’s not easy to find actual coloured glass 😅
ooh that could be cool! For these shelves they do sell different color glasses it's not craazy expensive 19k / 14 bucks but yeah that's definitely something I'll purchase later on (once these apt makeover videos start popping off and the adsense comes thru hahaha 🙏🙏🙏)
Shout out to my Toronto crew Alexandra G. & Sorry Girls!!!
love themmmm ;; w ;;
Sooooo cuteeeeee
Thank you!!!
I'm glad I'm not the only one running around on adventures to get things from karrot 😂
in regards to your bathroom shelf, i wonder if you could get cheap like tubberware and put it on the floor (opening on the bottom) and place the "feet" of the shelf on them for added height?
That's what I had planned to do but then the shelf still needed that X bracket in the back for support so it couldn't be done 😣 but welp we got there in the end!!!
@@YOHOMEGIRL True, your space looks great!
La cama asi en horizontal me gusta mas, se aprovecha el espacio
si necesito mas espacio en mi cuarto jeje
Home decor videos do really well on TH-cam…maybe you just found your new series!
Maybe so!!!! 💕💕💕
Literally I have no car, no furniture and no storage in my room help hahah
step 1. declutter homie!!! it really helped me!!!
Girl DIY a bed frame (unless you need more storage)
guuuuurl haha, you know I thought about it buuut, I think that would be waaay too big of a project to do here in Korea without a car and without even a drill (I had to borrow that from a friend.. and she no longer has it lol). But yeah I do need some type of storage or like space to store stuff ;; w ;;
Get the bed frame no headboard… move it horizontally for maximized space!!!!
yeeeeeesss
What if you have the bed moved side ways and then you move the dresser flat against the other wall and then you could moves the clothes over to the side a bi and then could do a headboard if you wanted still
To be honest, if you put more house/renovation/crafts videos, I see your entire brand/TH-cam exploding. I love your content, always have. But I extra enjoyed this video. ◡̈
Thanks so much for watching! I really hope this series does well :) ill see ya in the next one Marianne!!
Girl, i dreamed you move to another apartment yesterday, will it be a sign?
Omggg, I will take it as one 🌟💕🌟💕
no you did the thing with the karrot app! they need to sponsor you.
they muuust! hahaha im always on this app girl, like more than ig!
