*EPIC* DIY STORAGE ROOM TURNED LIBRARY MAKEOVER

[@jennamaree4502]

I would have put an L-table over the chair so that they could also use that space to work (as she requested). The small table was cute, but didn’t really serve the purpose she needed. Other than that, very nice!

[@annac9534]

That’s what I was thinking! Also, it doesn’t really seem “cozy” to me.

[@xristinak.1567]

and also something comfy for the legs

[@madheremadthere4616]

I agree. I like Alexandra's style but i find functionality sometimes gets behind.

[@gondolin12]

I guess budget has major effect. If she had small budget those t shape tables and a leg rest ottoman would rank up overall price

[@Kath-Erina]

@@gondolin12 nope, Ikea has a really inexpensive table that you can pull/slide over the side of the chair and set up a laptop and work on it. It's stylish and could have easyly replaced the side table he used but with more functionality. www.ikea.com/de/de/p/vittsjoe-laptopgestell-schwarzbraun-glas-00250249/

[@geminiproject062]

That moment when Alexandra started getting roasted by the other two when she was explaining how curtains work was so sweet and funny

[@latoyalewis]

Hahaha yes! They’re like “you don’t say!” ❤️😂😂

[@RocketChild]

It's a beautiful space. However, I think maybe you should've put a desk as opposed to a coffee table. Because the client did say she wants to work in that space.

[@thinkingbout]

Yeah I think so too, there are even PC-Desks at Ikea in the size of an sidetable, that maybe would have worked here, so that it is still useable as a sidetable when you don't have to work in the room😊

[@shaishannahbennett8055]

@@thinkingbout Yep, exactly what i thought. Ikea have laptop tables that probably cost the same or less than that coffee side table. I love how the space looks, but missing the main function the client asked for...

[@LindsayNRandi]

Yeah, I was surprised she didn't go with one of those tuck-in laptop tables that can double as a side table instead. Either way it's super cute!

[@paulajf4205]

Overall, it's a cool little space. I know you have the stylish sconce lighting, but since it's a reading nook, how a bout either a tall lamp next to or behind the chair or a wall lamp next to the chair? Just a thought.

[@kcanded]

That's what I was thinking. The boob light will be blocked by the bookshelves. I would go for a floor lamp behind the chair for better light.

[@miss_xenia_]

You know when someone actually reads books vs just decorates with books 😋

[@apurvagautam3605]

exactly

[@aviajarehema7393]

The orange paint, bookshelves, and the light are my favs of this makeover.

[@splifsis25]

U always find a way to add Pink in every decor. I hate pink but I love ur ideas I just talor everything you do pink to blue n it works.

[@Annodx3]

I love it!! I wish there was an over the couch desk so they could put their laptop on top of something when working and when they aren't they can slide it beside the chair. love the shelves!

[@wentale]

Even a retro lap table would work, ditch the side table.

[@lindakovacs7904]

Looks like a front page for an interior design book. Just really great. !

[@asherduff8627]

Of course PINK...always with the pink...

[@mowattlavern62]

Beautiful yet simple design. Love it

[@lisajanes2989]

As always, your makeovers are amazing. I think I watched most all of your videos before I tackled my own shabby chic bedroom makeover. I am a huge fan of pink as well. Today I saw a bathroom makeover by a young man who copied your black paint with the magic eraser technique. He said that he was inspired by a room you did and he used your name as well. I was so excited because I thought "hey, that is my decorator ". Way to go girl; you are inspiring many.

[@lem9999]

Drew (lonefox) is also very, very talented, you should check out his other videos as well!

[@olbird7647]

@@lem9999 i'd say more talented as he tends to combine functionality and aesthetic better imo 👍

[@MetaTransitions]

Such a beautiful make over. Simply beautiful ❤️

[@lyndareith1206]

Soooo cute. Lots in a small deadening but not crowded. Such a clever girl.

[@dalcloud8873]

Her style is so cute, clever and creative for sure! What did you mean by deadening????

[@lyndareith1206]

Have no idea why that word came up. Meant to say lots in a small area.. Sorry for the oops.

[@InesTessa]

Amira is so stunning! I laughed so much at the curtain comment haha, Alexandra you are my hero. Please help me virtually make over my Beijing apartment hehe!

[@moredancelesstalk]

Yeah, she really is. I have envy for those beautiful eyes of hers. The makeover is nice too. :)

[@mommygarcia9137]

Omg ! That Adobe color block wall is so creative & beautiful !! Love the room !!

[@WhisperTraining]

WOW! This has to be one of my all time favorite's of Alexandra's videos for making over a tiny space. The color blocking with the artwork was genius! And those bookshelves look fantastic!

[@jeannecharlson9678]

I absolutely love how your personality comes out and you can laugh at yourself when something doesn’t work exactly as planned. It makes you seem just the same as some of us that are not as handy-it shows us we can still try, and then laugh at ourselves and enjoy new experiences instead of moping because we goofed up. I absolutely loved how this room turned out!🧡

[@Violet.18]

Alexandra wears the cutest outfits when she paints... Ballsy lol

[@gpetsef]

A laptop table would have made the space work for their requirements more than a side table. Beautiful room though!

[@lucieudem]

I would have put a wall to wall bookshelves on the other wall instead for more books lol (it's my personal life goal to have a bookshelves with a ladder one day lol) and the possibility of having a desk when needed

[@orelyt]

Hahaha I giggled when your team teases you about the curtains. I love it it's so fun

[@KimSincox]

Enjoy watching these videos. Alexandra is so cute. Color coded book organization makes me shake my head. Organize by topic, author, etc. But color? Cute for toddlers, but adults? Of course, they don't have that many books, so this may work for them. It's certainly a huge improvement and a real morale booster!

[@suzy1676]

You outdid yourselves Team AG!! The flow and tone is spot on!!

[@victorytarotdivini]

that artwork on that apricot door!! Looved it!! May your talent take you faaar and beyond any door! 🌼🎉

[@denises9426]

Omg when Marsha Brady popped up and said “Sure Jan” I laughed my butt off! Thanks for another amazing transformation Alexandra! Love it!!

[@alexisb.8965]

Omg. Marsha, Marsha, Marsha! I was not expecting that!

[@becaboo-dv8dp]

Duuuuude this makeover is so good!!!! ❤️ Also when you were struggling with the hammer while hanging up the plant holders, that was totally me 😂 All the space needs is a little pouf/foot stool and a cuddly kitty to sit on your lap as you read 😍

[@shalinisharma6417]

Ya that's what I was thinking,, a pouf to put your feet up while reading

[@lindabradbeer9567]

Love this space so much! Those shelves are perfection!!

[@stacylamb5607]

Perfect. The way you style is up my alley. So sweet that you propagated from your plants

[@gm2mx]

I am so glad you got to do a "real" room makeover. I look forward to your videos. I even purchased white paint to redo my living room/dinning room. It has been the same color for 7 years. I have looked at these walls for 3 months and I knew I needed a change. I so wish you lived close and could give me a hand. Happy summer.

[@marlenecampbell6446]

I love the fact that they love the design.

[@michellealjunaidi8471]

Great use of space. Made the area a functioning part of the home. Was thinking you could have added a light window tent on the sliding glass doors. It would reduce the UV light and the amount of heat coming into the space. Easy to purchase at a local home improvement store.

[@moksha-life-spiraltoparamd9013]

What's missing is a swivel table.. .. which can be against the accent wall but move towards the sofa when required.. and a battery operated light amongst the plant holders..

[@EmmaLeeHD]

Such a great use of space! Also love how you are showing us that you're staying safe and maintaining distance during the makeover

[@mary-annelahey5168]

Great colour!

[@pamelaatkinson5710]

[@donnahutchinson5392]

Awe.... you got your sparkle back. I'm so happy for you and the Gater Crew Do. You are so talented with your ideas. But nothing brings me more joy than to watch your brain work when your actually doing the work with your own hands. You get a sparkle that starts in your eye then moves to the rest of your face. When things start to come together.

[@deborahbaker1256]

That orange colour looks great, good contrast!

[@erikas974]
