“Night happens literally every day.” LOL!

[@patsanders481]

Same!

[@marthamatteson5280]

You're actually pretty amazing. Funny, articulate, and a whiz with power tools. Oh, and excellent style and Marty. Don't know what to say about Marty. If you ever get tired of him, I'll take him.

[@Caroline_Winkler]

Martha!! I don’t deserve all these nice adjectives ❤️and Marty is extremely flattered. Thanks for watching and for cheering me!

[@hcsokas]

Caroline, I’m coming to you from the future - it’s 2024 now! You’ve grown so so much as a person and as a designer!!! So proud of you❣️

[@VelvetyMoon]

Caroline, I saw in a more recent video that you said you didn't like this makeover specifically which you had done, and while it may not be what you would do now as the Caroline you are today, considering you were working with a limited budget and even trying out some new handyman new skills at the time, WOW you gave it a modern look and made a drastic difference! That before and after is amazing. You aren't giving yourself enough credit 💖

[@traceyg7925]

I’m 3 years late but every single design of yours that I have seen, I truly love! Ben the make overs you do for others that aren’t particularly your personal favorites are lovely. On top of that I love your goofy and clever sense of humor!!!!

[@Stitcher1964]

'The men in my life have failed me carpentry wise' Honey, the men in my life fail me for everything! I think you did a great job on the headboard. It always amazes me how we can duplicate something a retailer is trying to rip us off with. $1800...they really must think they are special.

[@Caroline_Winkler]

hahahaha and oh man these prices NEVER cease to amaze me. ESPECIALLY after I try and recreate something myself and see what the materials actually cost. I know there's a lot more 'cost' that goes into it from a retail point of view, but my god it certainly doesnt make the item more valuable to me. 100% with you on that🙌

[@RitaClement-pd6sr]

Your bedframe is much better looking than the $1800.00 one!!

[@gayllph5926]

Two years too late for comment, but I will any way . . . AMAZING! you took a dumpy, little, dark room and made it look like a peaceful retreat. I am very impressed and inspired (except that I will not be getting out power tools myself). You win the award for vision, execution, industriousness and (of course), humor.

[@lucydeantiguatarot8977]

My gosh Caroline, you get it so perfect in your designs. I really like your style. Not sure when you did this video. It shows how gifted you are in so many ways. If you ever want o work on a new project, let me know, you can work on my studio. The good thing is that I live in beautiful Santa Cruz, CA. Now there's an incentive!

[@mariaandreinaguzmanapolina869]

LOOOOVEEEEE the trolling mentions at the end!!! omg that is original and hilarious! Troller of the month should be a thing in your channel. Also, loved the the result of the room makeover! Super cool eclectic vibe

[@Caroline_Winkler]

Oh my god I love this idea. TROLLER OF THE MONTHS. Omg yes I think I’m gonna do this thank you 🙌🙌🙌🙌

[@lenapi9234]

I feel like watching your videos is like a new season of Gilmore Girls for me! Love to hear you talking and doing your magic :)

[@meredithreesor5888]

Omg my excitement over finding your channel is next level!! Amazing work! Sharing it with all my friends because your taste + your sense of humor is a winning combo.

[@Caroline_Winkler]

Hah YES Meredith! This is the kind of hype I’m here for it. Thanks for enjoying and sharing! I’ve taken a short hiatus to address some personal matters, but a new video in in the works 😉let me know anything on particular you’d like to see more of, or what makes the videos feel fun to you. That’s always super helpful!

[@katelovesbeauty98]

@@Caroline_Winkler i love hearingWHY something looks good somewhere, like "this frame looks good here because it draws your eye up" i love how you explain why . it feels really educational but in such a fun, entertaining way.

[@AngelaLeigh1]

Wait, this turned out SO good! You may not have carpenter men in the family, but you are a straight up woodworker! Also - thank youuu for using COLOR! Loved it all!

[@zeenatreddy7692]

the best part of this video is the monologue at the beginning and end. she's so funny 💀🤣

[@Caroline_Winkler]

hahah i'm always happy to humiliate myself publicly. glad you enjoy it

[@albasorandomm3410]

Officially your #1 FAN ! Obsess with this room ! Obsess with you . You’re beyond COOL, SMART & umm helloooo CREATIVE and tour style ROCKS !!

[@Caroline_Winkler]

WHAT! 😍How DARE you be so sweet!! So glad you're liking the videos, more soon!!!!! What kind of stuff would you like to see more of?? let me know!

[@janine7825]

I love how you needed this video with calling out your trolls - girl I am here for your amazing sense of humor….and your design makeover (obvi)

[@beckyb1012]

I see your 2023 style coming out in this beginning of your journey. Looks very pretty and restful. 😊

[@tessaborbridge3910]

You have such an amazing eye!!! Love all of the details you put into this - would you ever consider doing virtual consultations to help the helpless with making over their own spaces??

[@Caroline_Winkler]

you sweet sweet gentle potato

[@bgholmq]

This is also something I would love!! I love your style!

[@mazjohansson9250]

I legit love you!!! You're funny but serious, light but deep - like how?! More videos pleaseeeee 😍🌷💕

[@Caroline_Winkler]

Hahah so glad this inner narration inside me translates to the rest of the world 😂🙌

[@cindytennessee]

Awesome! Your bedroom is perfect…better than before…and it looks loved.

[@alejandramontiel462]

just came here to watch your old vids cuz ive already watched pretty much all of your newer videos and its so sweet its really like awwwwwwww baby caroline 😂 even though you later criticised this makover and ofc your style has evolved so much ever since, you still did quite good 💛

[@karenharlow3569]

This really shows what a typical "cube room" can look like with great style choices, colors, and accessories. Pleasant, uplifting, and beautiful! Thanks for sharing!

[@FreakyBo0o]

Gorgeous!!! I loved everything except the paint colour (too spring-like imo. Something more subdued summer-like would have looked more harmonious from my limited perspective behind a small laptop screen... so what do I know, heh). You did an amazing job with the bed frame!!! Defo the vibes I'd want for my own bedroom - you've given me plenty of inspo. Thank youuuu!

[@zoevantieghem8073]

officially a super fan

[@Caroline_Winkler]

Capturing the legendary and elusive ZVT. This is the one and only dream worth having

[@cherylmonopoli2896]

Stumbled your videos.You are one very clever young lady. I love your ideas, colour choices, design styles and diys. I have subscribed!! Watching from Adelaide, Australia 😊

[@Caroline_Winkler]

Cheryl! You’re so sweet to say that!! So glad you enjoyed. I’ve taken a short hiatus to attend to some personal matters but I’ll have more content soon!! Hi to you in Adelaide! 😍

[@HollyPettingFarm]

I love that you “go for it”. The headboard turned out very nice. Also I was impressed with the sideboard that you made and the choice of storage underneath. Great choice. The room looks relaxing and peaceful. I like your humor.

[@robinsotelo9240]

I truly am inspired! This bedroom is sooooo inviting, artistic and tranquil. Nailed it! (And sawed it and sanded it....you know what you did!!)

[@Caroline_Winkler]

ahh!! love you and your supportive puns. Thanks for supporting always!

[@led6244]

Wow, just wow. The colors coordinate perfectly, cool and warm mixed just right. That came headboard did wonders for the bed, and those drapes! And you hung them correctly, it’s a pet peeve of mine personally when they’re hung low and narrow. Bravo!

[@Caroline_Winkler]

Oh my gosh that ikea curtain track system was a CHALLENGE to my soul. But I loved it once it was up

[@marjant4089]

hello Caroline. I am new to your channel, but I am not new to the design channels. I've been watching a lot of them, and honestly this is the most refreshing and helpful one that I have found so far. Thank you so much for what you do and how you do it. You have a way of connecting with your audience that I haven't seen in other channels. I think your experience in the acting industry has a lot to do with it i.e. you seem very comfortable having "a conversation with an inanimate object" (quoting from one of your own videos:D ), and connecting with us invisible people. You're effortlessly engaging and natural. It's literally the first time that I look forward to watching someone's lifestyle vlog (like "what I do in a day," etc), and after that I don't feel like "that's 20 minutes of my life I won't get back!!)

[@annamimi1335]

Well don’t listen to those negative hurtful people. I think you did a terrific job and I’m cheering you for your woodworking skills! I’m a bit jealous.

[@tbpmermaid]

Very cute!❤

[@helenalin4397]

This is amazing! Love everything you do

[@Bobbie-G]

Absolutely beautiful!!! You are amazing!

[@paulinegraham6839]

WOW !!! it's amazing and absolutely gorgeous !!

[@elizabethbittala2779]

"A notebook I found from 1917!" *RRRIIIPPPPP* But seriously, so fun to watch! My house has lovely open main areas, but the cubiest of cube bedrooms!

[@Voguemama]

Wow so pretty!!!

[@debsmcd9968]

Love your sense of style and your sense of humor!

[@MeHere650]

Amazing transformation

[@Misswho5]

[@Noreenlee1]

Gorgeous, and you made furniture! I'm impressed!

[@terri241]

Beautiful job! Great result! Thank you, Caroline. Keep posting!

[@mbhuey]

Great job Angeline!!!

[@tidalwaves8761]

it's amazing to see a typical room get transformed into something so comfy and special!

[@IceQeen1011]

This is both beautiful and seems practical! I love it :D

[@rebeccalowry9296]

This room looks amazing! You’re very talented. I love the green walls, they are so pretty.

[@Samahra01]

Wow!!!!!!! That is so beautiful!!! Impressed:)

[@SG-es2hf]

Love your construction skills...and tips!

[@berlinbeachkat4878]

Love it! So serene! In awe how talented you are with these tools.

[@ElleCallanan]

Love you so much! You’re wonderful and it shines out in everything you do. ❤

[@stephanieroberts5057]

This transformation is just wonderful. Love your vision and execution and banter.

[@lisabolo26]

My mouth is literally hanging open because I cannot believe you made the cane headboard yourself!! I am truly humbled. You are amazing!

[@telephonebooks]

Love it ❤

[@lindabrown5898]

Amazing makeover! And the table you created is gorgeous! Bravo!

[@olivxe]

looks great!!

[@BarbaraHenry]

Your table turned out flat gorgeous!

[@15minutestoread97]

I love it so much!

[@Rachel5280]

Those bold curtains...just WOW, they really made the room. I never would have imagined. Thanks.

[@CRJR94]

I think you’re VERY talented, and I LOVED EVERYTHING About the makeover!

[@darkangelkate3950]

That was amazing. What a majik change you created!!

[@japonesa5186]

That curtain rod track is amazing!

[@Oliviagorskaya]

This is super cool! I am so glad I discovered you on KZbin :) Watching all your vids one by one.

[@rachelchudley1527]

Love it ! Think you did a great job .

[@hs2874]

Also I love the console table and the mint colour walls

[@audrabodie4960]

The curtain track system idea just changed my life. Love your videos!

[@saharshams2497]

How luxurious it looks now!!! Unbelievable 😍😍😍😍😍

[@safiyaarts]

Thanks, Caroline, for your amazing videos, I loved the makeover, it got me so inspired. As I am trying to do something different with my bedroom! 😍

[@annascott1461]

Ah this rooommmmm 😍 oh and the advice about not doing just one style in a room EXACTLY what I needed to hear wow

[@juney18]

Again, so helpful!!!

[@amandaboczoni243]

Wow, that is soo beautiful!

[@Caroline_Winkler]

doh, Amanda you are my new best hypewoman! Thank you!

[@invisiblesquirrel1]

You are seriously a genius!

[@pavlinahrebackova3000]

What a lovely bedroom! That console table is just perfect! And even more I have the same night stands and small ikea bench in bedroom :))) you are my cup of tea! :)

[@corinnestrasser2044]

Just found your channel great job! I also have yellow curtains and was thinking of green wAlls! So happy to have found this inspiration!

[@heatherhorvath7232]

Wow amazing 🤩 love it

[@janieroy3222]

Awesomeness. Great job.

[@laurieduncan6096]

You are soooo talented!!!!!

[@elisabethpatterson9417]

Aww! I love this! You are so handy and amazing! I wouldn't even know how to use a power tool. I love seeing this older video, it randomly popped up as suggested since I've been following your page for a year. xoxo

[@eugenieholmes7846]

This is beautiful and refreshing

[@Caroline_Winkler]

You’re so kind Eugenie thank you 🌸❤️

[@judyshort38]

Heck of a job! I love this!!!

[@Caroline_Winkler]

aw thanks, it was so much fun! glad you love it!

[@thejovianwitch]

I audibly gasped when the curtains came out 💛💛💛 love it all, but especially that colour.

[@janeenleach5014]

I am binge watching your videos from present back. You are talented, knowledgeable, funny and very cute. You remind me of my daughter. She is independent, hardworking, and outspoken. I love it!

[@B4andafterbeauty12]

So good!

[@elaynjames4528]

Wow. Just wow. Well done. Love the comment about the curtains... so true. "They're just curtains! Take the risk!""

[@juliajueckstock1479]

Whaaaat this looks GREAT, I was recently eyeing an obscenely expensive cane webbing headboard and it never occurred to me that it could be DIY’d!!! Stealing!

[@TheShadowgal1]

The Patrick Taylor book is an absolute FAVOURITE of mine! 😊🇨🇦

[@saxophonelavanya2064]

You can make any boring dull place transform in to Happy Lively. Kudos 👌👍👍

[@gregsiska]

Recently started watching your channel... I really like your designs and ideas... a lot! Here's a back-saving hack you might like Caroline. Get interior design and architect's drawing templates, trace the furniture pieces you use onto kids' craft foam, label them and cut the shapes out. When you want to rearrange all the furniture in a room, draw a 1/4" : 1' scale sketch of the room and move the shapes around instead. Et voila... back saved!

[@ninastepanyan-gandilyan6000]

Great job! I've learned a lot from your videos. Thank you.

[@Caroline_Winkler]

That's my favorite thing to hear, Nina! I love sharing helpful tidbits

[@melindawakley7859]

You are funny. Naturally. Love it.

[@gigss3439]

Too funny at end! Great job, love your channel.

[@michellepereira2328]

You did a nice job. I liked the console table and the way you styled it. The only thing I would change is to make the headboard a little shorter so it is even with the bed.

[@yeseniamyunfilteredlife6503]

Beautiful ❤️

[@justthemomof4]

I love how you illustrated that you can put part of the bed right in front of the window, who cares! You wanted that bed centered and by-God, you did it! Looks fantastic, you are talented.

[@irenethegreek3348]

Du bist so talentiert! 😊 gut gemacht!

[@bernadettesquire3772]

Love you work ,I will be definitely trying out your idea’s ,

[@slyg3098]

I appreciate your willingness to problem solve the woodworking as you go along. The finished piece seemed sturdy & looked good, and that’s what counts. I’m conflicted about the curtains, but only because I’m not a fan of them just generally (I always feel like they’ll get dusty and musty). However, they look great in the video.

[@KatieSheaDC]

I really enjoyed that. Your woodworking skills are so impressive and I love watching how you make these things. Could be fun to show a breakdown of the DIY costs but also not essential. I know you mentioned a few of the pieces already. Anyways, the cube looks great. Where did the bats end up? You should get nice hooks for them 😅

[@Caroline_Winkler]

haha wow youre right. i should probably do a follow up piece on the fate of the bats. they are back in the corners for good, despite my best efforts. I will totally show cost breakdown next time! I wasnt sure if anyone cared so this is good to know!

[@Tmlatyoutube]

Gorgeous

[@nicolegregory4429]

Girl! You’ve got crazy cool skills! ~N

[@feewaybilz]

Evening comes like everyday.. too funny

[@diosadeamore]

Watching now after your review of this one! Sorry but as cringe as you feel about this vid lol, Im loving it already!
