CALIFORNIA LUXURY APARTMENT TOUR *1420 sq ft apartment* + renter-friendly updates

[@daiseechain]

I appreciate that you show us what worked as well as what didn’t hold up over time! So refreshing.

[@tinalemac]

Yesss, had to show y’all the real!! Sometimes things don’t work out, and that’s ok! I’m still learning and happy to show y’all my mistakes so you don’t make the same ones 🫶🏼

[@Patti-1962]

Beautiful, cozy home!! For the split wallpaper, do what Drew did in his guest room where he used fabric trim to outline the walls. You could cover the split easily with a pretty upholstery trim!!

[@zolasimons466]

OMG! I truly enjoyed this video! I love how you and your husband interact with each other. I see, not just the love but also the friendship between you two. If you guys continue in that way, your marriage should last a long time and be very happy. I appreciate you sharing your mistakes in some of your DIYs. That's very helpful for those of us who want to try those days themselves. I love your channel and look forward to each episode.

[@tinalemac]

Hehe, this is so sweet! Thank you so much 💛

[@lovingmayberry307]

So happy to hear Salem has a good owner and is not pregnant. Just well loved! 💜🐈‍⬛

[@simkep.5616]

I feel like what you need for your dining area is a round table instead instead of any other shape! It would be so much easier to create a floor plan that flows more naturally and makes more sense to the eye! Love your videos sooo so much, there are loads of good home decor & DIY channels out there but only one Tina! You come across as a genuinely wholesome & amazingly sweet human being & that sets you apart!

[@tinalemac]

This comment just made my whole entire day 😭 Thank you for the continued support, I appreciate it soooo much 💛💛💛

[@suewestbrook1067]

All these projects in one year! You’re a busy bee, a talented and artistic bee. Thank you for always telling us the good, bad and ugly. Love your channel and so happy you’re staying in your apartment.

[@jackandlill]

Tina! You should be so very proud of how you have made this space a beautiful & cozy home for you & Brian!! I have had so much fun watching you transform each space whether one time or more - into something that is creative, functional & represents your aesthetic. I love your willingness to try new things & challenge yourself...and motivate others to do the same!

[@MoDro281]

Congratulations! You truly are committed to your talent!

[@tinalemac]

Awwww, thank you so so much!! 🥹💛

[@mommygarcia9137]

Love everything you’re done to your beautiful home ! Loving your cozy patio decor ! You are so talented !

[@tinalemac]

Thank you so much!! It’s been so much fun and I’m excited to make it even better 😇💛

[@kendiholloway2378]

Its all beautiful, I love that japandi style workspace. You have done an amazing job personalising your space, cold grey & stark white is so harsh to live in. Cant wait to see more of your ideas.

[@tinalemac]

Thank you so so much!! 🥹💛💛

[@mslafave5689]

You have a lovely home, Tina. Thanks for the honesty

[@joywolters2553]

Everything was so beautiful! My favorite was the wreath ❤

[@hollyhasegawa4240]

Oh gosh Tina this was such a fun tour of all of the really cool and beautiful things you have done in your apartment, I was thinking with that wallpaper that is coming off you could add a trim on that split with some upholstery trim that would just add some beauty to that beautiful wall paper and make it more secure. I am excited to see more of your makeovers and DIYs also. I also saw that beautiful flower picture that I won from you on your bathroom wall and I love seeing my picture on my wall because I think about you everytime I see it. Have a great blessed and beautiful Sunday, sending love and hugs, Bye!! 😂🥰😘🙏🙏💖💝💜💜

[@ParamountDisney_AP]

You're so talented, you have a lovely home. You two are the cutest couple ever, I love watching every single episode. ❤

[@IrmaDiaz-h1l]

Tina you are amazing when watching what was and presently done you are a genius in designing your decor without damaging your rental apt.the owner will be very pleased with you as a tenant who cared for the home 👏🏻 .Just imagine what will be when you and Brian purchase your all own home it's gonna be great watching what changes you will be doing making over to your likeness thanks sharing your awesome video keep doing what you love 😍

[@perfectlycoiffed05]

Very refreshing channel! Keep up,the good work…and 3M needs to sponsor you because the way you’re using command strips is amazing.

[@karenn8391]

Ive watched all the DIYs when they came out and wasnt always 100% sure😅 but seeing the Home Tour as well definitely gives another perspective. Its so smartly done and innovative. Thanks for all the inspiration. And your dedication to consistent QUALITY Renter friendly content is unseen.💐💐 I love it all now and I can't wait to see what you'll do next. I know I'll be amazed ❤thanks for all of this

[@tinalemac]

Awwwww, I appreciate this sooo much! It’s been fun to experiment with these renter-friendly projects and see what worked and didn’t work. Thank you for the kind feedback 💛

[@catherinecarreiro3955]

Thanks for sharing the successful as well as what didn’t work. You’ve created a lovely home

[@KatelynSh]

Great work done! So inspirational. Also happy to hear about Salem. Thank you!

[@donnabacon4681]

Niiiice! I know I've seen everything you have created; Tina you are simply an amazing and talented creative artist! Have a blessed day!! xxoo

[@tinalemac]

Thank you so much Donna! 💛

[@margaretkellymurphy5537]

I love seeing how your apartment flows all together. A garage on the second floor confuses me, but that’s a me thing. If I had to pick a favorite part it would be watching your style develop from your last home to this one. I can’t wait to see what comes next!

[@Kimella777]

❤😊wonder if you could put black strips of wood over the gaps in the bathroom paper like you did over Brian’s desk. Using command strips. Because that wall paper is beautiful 😊

[@sharlaangulo3649]

I love your place and all the fun diys. Please always do home tours!!! 🙏😀

[@Aa-ke9pp]

bathroom and kitchen paint has teflon in it to make it easy to wipe down and clean. Therefore, some peel and stick wallpaper may not stick well in bathrooms or kitchens if it has the specialty paint as the teflon will repel the stickiness! I guess it could also depend on the type of peel and stick adhesive also. I found this out in my own bathroom too.

[@jenroxanne]

I loved watching this! Loved to see how far you’ve come with home-ing up your rental. It’s beautiful and so cozy. You’re a true talent Tina!

[@nicolekorincedano7161]

Everything looks so good & warm!

[@largedoglover99]

I think your apartment flows very well

[@nothingworksworks3511]

I love the high apothecary shelf by a bed. A low shelf looks "sinkY". A high shelf w a lamp gives great light w easy reach- good aesthetics & ergonomics

[@jackiblair7932]

I am so envious of the library card cabinet. Good on you!!!

[@avigailsumaylo6253]

I just love everything you have made to make your house so cozy! It is so beautiful. Can't wait to see your next video!!

[@tinalemac]

Thanks so much! 😊💛

[@avigailsumaylo6253]

@@tinalemac You're welcome 😁

[@mmhmm1974]

I absolutely luv the downstairs bathroom mural u painted, it's so gorgeous.

[@creationslandscapedesigns]

I like how you're showing what your home realistically looks like, even though parts of it look like they need to be redone. It's a more authentic home to work.

[@juliebey8240]

Try magic erasers for the scuffs…they’re genius 🙌😁

[@KristieHeathWhite-d8t]

Have you thought about adding a strip of trim to cover the areas where the wallpaper where it is coming apart?

[@gretafrancis522]

Hi Tina, love your content. If I may suggest, in the unused bathroom, I would either use a bit of wall paper paste to tackle the seams or use the same bendable trim that is in your primary bathroom to hide the seams, that way it will tie in abd look cohesive. For bathrooms, vinyl wall paper works best. Hopes this helps. Designer from Canada.

[@RebeccaVinyard-h1c]

Love the ideas and creativity. You have come a long way from the beginning of your KZbin journey! Also, love your dress! ❤

[@jackieclark817]

Luv the honesty of mishaps and triumphs. The cute hack for dining table will be adopted! Trust! And why not? But everyone can afford a new dining table.

[@lifecoachwithlora1481]

In guestbath in seems just paint some trim black and do panel trim like you did in guest bedroom ..this way you can save your wallpaper

[@amandabkayb]

It's so unique and beautiful 😍

[@tinalemac]

Thank you!!! 💛💛

[@arlenegibson9158]

It's about what makes you happy. It doesn't matter what anyone else thinks. They don't live there. We all have different taste. I think you have done some really awesome things.

[@mamibarrero7405]

Hi Tina, thanks for the video! You have a beautiful home, congrats! 🇧🇷

[@kimpaynter]

How many of your neighbors have asked you to help them with their patio. It is so relaxing. Your home is beautiful.❤❤❤❤❤

[@sunnyraycreates]

Beautiful home❤❤❤❤

[@wideawake6501]

Put strips over ur splitting wallpaper, ie panel each strip some way, its too nice a paper to take off ❤

[@starveartist]

Thanks for sharing the things that didn't work out perfectly too!

[@whatlolawants2167]

Tina, I love that dress! You look so pretty. I really hate that wallpaper is separating in the bathroom too. I absolutely love that bathroom! Okay, both of those bathrooms. In the bottom one try nano tape at the top.❤❤❤

[@dollyhartley4387]

Your place is absolutely beautiful! Great job

[@davis-belsky258]

What happened to the West Elm plant stand/table you made out of cardboard and plaster of Paris? I loved that!!

[@Sooz1234]

Always thought you might be able to squeeze a bit more space from the dining area to give to the seating area. The credenza could back up to the sectional, and your sofa table move into its place. That second floor arched nook, Brian's office area, the kitchen and seating area, and the owners bath are amazing. I am getting ready to attempt the mantel cover you did in your former house.

[@KristieHeathWhite-d8t]

Love you Tina and Brian!

[@purplewombat1923]

Tina, you have made so many beautiful improvements to your originally bland apartment. It will be such a shame to change it all back when you leave!

[@leilanilucas2597]

I’m not getting any projects done because I love watching your videos so much that I don’t have enough time!😂

[@tinalemac]

Hehehe, thank you for the love!! 💛💛

[@daymonv3736]

I really think you should consider doing a large round table where your dining table goes. Just a thought, but you have so many straight lines it makes it very hard and linear. I think a round table would help to soften it and change its flows a bit. Maybe you could do a kidney shaped table? That would be cool.

[@Aqua.A3r0]

I’ve been searching through how you made (I’m assuming) the checkered piece that’s above your headboard 🤩

[@juliaowens4566]

The fear of trying to get up the stairs as quickly as possible while covering your butt is VERY relatable 😂

[@Jenna1814]

Aww too cute, I hope the owner of the kitty likes that you gave him a little home away from home.

[@unlinedwork]

Out of curiosity, when you move do you just get rid of everything, or do you ask first if the owner wants to keep anything you've done to the apartment?

[@_JanetLouise]

wow, a fast & busy year

[@tinalemac]

Right?! I can't believe how fast it's gone by!!

[@jackiblair7932]

I vote “love” for the bathroom.

[@lyndaandrian7204]

You need a round dining table

[@tinalemac]

Yesss! That’s exactly what I’m thinking for the dining room 😍

[@carolineburroughs8686]

Thanks 4 sharing 🤗🥰🤩

[@tinalemac]

Thank you so much!! 💛

[@kayalford6746]

Right after n I posted you went outside and talked the cat!

[@marierothausen8296]

How about a gallery wall at the staircase 😉

[@tinalemac]

That would be my dream!! If I can find a big enough ladder 🙈

[@kayalford6746]

The library card catalog cabinet looks great as it. Sometime the again of a furniture piece is what makes it beautiful. You have made your home beautiful. I am wondering if the cat is still visiting you and if you ever found out if he has a home. Also are y’all still going to move?

[@rocioiribe5841]

she said in the video the cat does have an owner.

[@nfa6386]

what about if you kept the wallpaper in the bathroom and added the japani (sorry if i spelt that wrong) look with the borders?

[@pepitapulgarcita5051]

❤❤❤

[@ju.le.bru.andrade3800]

Maravilhoso!

[@tinalemac]

Thank you!! 💛💛

[@aydansaa]

My house also shoe off too but what is the difference of crocs or slippers? Do you/or guests wipe them before entering?

[@tinalemac]

They are indoor-only crocs and slippers 🙈 No outdoor shoes allowed, unless it’s for a fit check 🤣

[@aydansaa]

@@tinalemac That’s sounds great, thank you 🥰🤗

[@sumaraahmad5567]

[@ashleypicco2839]

Dress link?! ❤

[@KeemaChiles]

The orange croc wall that the door bell sits on? 👀👀👀👀

[@tinalemac]

The apartment came that way! Really cool finishes throughout our building 👌🏼

[@shaharm2861]

You can name the avocado Ricardo. Ricardo the avocado 😂

[@sandrar2720]

The wallpaper gaps look like it's from walls shifting. You're in LA, yes - I'm sure that contributes to it (fault line/small quakes) but it's not uncommon for this to happen. I've seen another decor KZbinr have this issue.

[@jackiblair7932]

Could you share the “brown” color name

[@sofiacoimbra5]

👏👏👏👏👏

[@sufordj]

😌

[@triciajoslin4151]

Hi Tina I did msg you before just wondered if you are staying or moving thanks love the apartment

[@tinalemac]

Hiiii! I mentioned during the tour that we are staying! (:

[@IMOO1896]

Just me, but I think I’d forgot the dining table and chairs, since there’s seating at the kitchen island. This way you can expand the living area and not be mushed in with both areas competting for space.

[@annamolina9386]

Why would you hide that beautiful dining table in your garage and put that folding table in your dining room ??

[@ashess2ashess118]

1420 square feet is tiny? Lol jk ..kind of. I believe mine is 800 sg feet 2 bed with three kids. This place is beautiful and the diys are 👍

[@Scereyaha]

Avery Cardo the avocado

[@Britbabe53]

Did you ask Salem's owner what her real name is?

[@DLRTraynorCoberly]

Maybe it’s because you keep the bathroom door closed.

[@lisadubay9741]

Not my style but if that’s what you like then that’s all that matters.

[@madzabinga8382]

Let me guess. Now you're moving?
