REALISTIC APARTMENT TOUR 2022 // Tips for decorating on a budget + Washington DC apartment tour

[@gloriaaguilar692]

As an old lady who has never lived on my own, I love watching your videos. Now I must go put on a cute headband and start my day.

[@MsPea]

"Yes, this is aesthetically pleasing nearly as much as it's a cry for help." Never heard pantry storage described that way, but I love it. There are hidden gems like this in all Caroline's videos. Her use of language is so entertaining.

[@celestewatson4874]

Literally laughed out loud at the pantry descriptions. What a ridiculous trend, the aesthetic pantry. 🙄

[@ItsaTessa]

I'm not sure how we decided to put a chair in our kitchen when we moved in, but now it's so important to me - we call it the sous chef's chair because our cat will come hang out on it whenever someone's cooking - and it's cute, and it doubles as a step ladder!

[@isobelfox5973]

Awwwww

[@OldWorldHome]

Girl, the internet needs more of you. Love the apartment as is! It can only get better ✨

[@Caroline_Winkler]

how dare you be so sweet

[@hannahcatesilver2154]

i love how homey and eclectic your style is! i’m so sick of ultra modern, minimal ikea homes. your rooms are just so warm and cozy yet refreshing

[@ThisIsMyFullName]

23:08 It's a Calathea Lancifolia, also known as the rattlesnake plant. The pot is from Bergs which is a Danish brand that designs Italian terracotta pots, that are handmade in Tuscany. I know because I have five of their pots myself! I imagine the Italian design is why your sister gave it to you, to remind you of Parma.

[@annaleeyikes1283]

“The best place to go antiquing… is near the cows.” Is hands down my favorite line from this video.

[@virginiatolles1664]

You definitely chose the right apartment. That is a true gem, and you're bringing out its best features with your decor.

[@beagadd]

I watched the apartment hunting vlog, so I’m glad you’re finally doing a tour! Love your channel. Found it randomly and I’m so glad I did:)

I randomly found your channel while trying to fill time feeding my baby during the day. I am obsessed. You are so talented and bring so much fun to interior design! I’d love to see a video about choosing accessories in your room, yours are always spot on. Or just videos about your life…or anything really.

[@racheljank1163]

Two things: 1) YES to the chair in the kitchen. So many kitchens are too tiny to do "eat in" or "breakfast bar" areas, but a chair is great for friends, and, well, me. I do like to cook and bake, and sometimes I just want to sit in a chair in my kitchen and read. 2) I get great Rachel Green vibes from you... like, "Rachel Green but make her modern and relatable and unscripted and much more grounded." I appreciate what you're putting out.

[@Caroline_Winkler]

oo i love that - just sitting in the kitchen to read. so cozy! glad we're on the same page :)

[@amybeatty5526]

Thank you for your honesty. Thank you for your bravery in being imperfect. It’s really helpful to see other people working to make their space a home, and your honest is refreshing and encouraging for my own imperfection.

[@Caroline_Winkler]

It’s all a work in progress. Life doesn’t have finite end points ❤️thanks for the sweet comment Amy😘

[@vickycarter1713]

Loving it so far. That slim IKEA storage idea may be perfect for shoe storage in your room to free up more space in your wardrobe - exciting!

[@Caroline_Winkler]

oo dang that's such a good idea!

[@antoniafoster8264]

Use temporary wallpaper in bathroom. Will brighten it up and make it you. I did that in one of my bathrooms and love it.

[@chloehunt5506]

I feel like the flower chair in the living room could be a great bedroom chair - and then you wouldn't have to get rid of it!

[@itsme_d7841]

I was thinking the same thing.

[@Caroline_Winkler]

ahh i didnt think of this! people keep suggesting it and i WISHHH i could - but it literally wont fit in the bedroom. i wouldnt be able to walk around the bed :( idk should i push teh bed agains the wall to make room???

@@Caroline_Winkler Try it before getting rid of the chair. Although, I don’t like beds against the wall.😬

I just moved and am in the middle of that not-quite-settled-in feeling, so this is a balm to watch and relate to. It's good to be reminded that it doesn't have to be perfect right away.

[@verygood10]

I can't wait to see what you are going to do with this apartment because you seem to approach it the right way by saying " it takes time... the layering... the pantry that is a cry for help" etc. I'll be watching.

Love your honesty , authenticity and perky - no nonsense personality. Also think you are a very talented designer!

[@juliahaliuk2190]

I wanted you to know that my hubby and I bought a house, painted the upper level grey, were so happy, and everyone has said that the walls are green. I’m so sad and it made me hate it. Seeing this and you saying “yeah, I picked the wrong color white, and I’m keeping it!” Gave me so much confidence to do the same and love my space again. Thank you!😊

[@lowusua2416]

LOVE this and it's such a smart use of the bay window area for a dining space. It makes the space feel complete to have an actual dining space. And as a DCer, love seeing more spaces/YTers in our city!

[@Caroline_Winkler]

thank you! yeah i think its kind of unconventional to have the table there and i do wish i could have an armchair there at times, but it just feels right to have a separate dining area!

[@userzquid]

Ugh, I just love your channel so much!! Your personality is perfect and your story telling is great. I used to live in DC and watching your videos brings me so much joy!

[@Caroline_Winkler]

ooo where did u live??

[@kathyficarotta598]

I love your apt. such a Victorian vibe, old world charm. You made the right choice. Anybody can live in a cold box, you chose a warm lived in environment that screams YOU, and I don't even know you. Well done. Looking forward to the next installment of updates you put you signature too. Happy New Year!!!

thanks Kathy! i'm so glad to learn im not the only one who loves victorian :)

[@terri348]

No matter how many times you do someone elses interior design vision, your own home takes time to become your perfect vision.

[@misiaalbert8214]

You're so fun to watch, your apartment is beautiful now but I can't wait to see it evolve. The plant your sister bought you is a Calathea Lacifolia or Rattlesnake Calathea. They like lower light and higher humidity but this calathea is one of the easier ones to keep happy.

[@chandaharkins4418]

Thanks for the plant name. It's gorgeous and I need one.

[@a-real-kat]

I also pray to the Magic Eraser gods 🙌🏼 they genuinely are magic. When you mentioned that your dog doesn't live with you anymore and you don't want to to talk about it, I felt it so much. My boyfriend of 7 yrs and I split recently and the dog we raised together for 5 years is staying with him and it's the one aspect of the breakup that I literally cannot talk about without having a breakdown. It feels like losing both your best friend and your own shadow.

[@mkt7301]

This is great- I love how thoughtful you have been with everything, that dining table is AMAZING. Would love a “exploring the neighborhood” type thing, if you’re taking suggestions- I feel like that’s always my favorite part of moving. I really feel so much more settled once I’ve found my ~places~

[@marianacastro1134]

Your sense of humor kills me. Bravo to a girl who has incredible taste and an intelligent sense of humor! Subscribed.

[@SarahNM13]

Thanks for explaining the grouping of threes. I’ve been staring at the mantle in my new home wondering why it looked trash. I paused the video to reattange my stuff in groups of three and it already looks better!

[@Caroline_Winkler]

oh for real??? that makes me so happy! 3's are a great cheat code!

[@elenalungin8622]

It IS a pleasure to watch you, and not only because the info you give IS helpful! You are so alive and emotional that it clicked with me instantly! Many physically present people around me are felt like sleepwalkers, but you, talking from a computer screen, managed to lift my spirits twice! in two days already! Thank you and G-d bless you!

[@verda_renee]

Your space has so much personality! Very refreshing to see decor that's not white and beige and neutral toned and drab. I feel like so much interior design content I come across is all about what's currently trendy which is the absence of all color and joy. 😬 Your place is spectacular so far, can't wait to see more! I would have so much fun with that bathroom. Some wallpaper and adhesive flooring maybe? So much potential! Can't wait to see what you do with it!

[@dancesingsmile]

Yes! We had an armchair in our kitchen growing up. Loved sitting there and chatting with my mom 🥰

[@kathygoertz1065]

The flower chair is gorgeous! Put it in your bedroom! It's so cute!

[@Caroline_Winkler]

ahh kathy! a woman after my own heart, the chair is so special right??? i wish i could keep it but i dont think it fits in teh bedroom cuz its so tiny 😭

[@lauramitchell6725]

Put your cream,cozy throw over most of your floral chair for now,it may not clash as much as you think.( it looks like a classic Waverly fabric stitched in crewel work)

[@janetyoungwriter]

I like your comment about wanting to enjoy your space all through the process, not just when it's finished. I'm not as far along as I'd like to be after three years in my house, but rather than feel frustrated I'm going to take your words to heart.

[@MeghanStark]

A fellow front-end developer and interior design enthusiast? I'm in love 😍 Also *love* that antique linen cabinet

[@evaargento5416]

You’ve got a unique style, both in design and personality. It’s refreshing to see on KZbin because I watch my share of interior design videos for inspiration for my home’s evolving style and there’s soooo much trend in retail being shopped, filmed and uploaded to KZbin. I feel influenced by the wrong influencers at times. I was frustrated today with my failed attempts at styling a few things I had recently DIY’ed and sat down with a cup of hot tea, hoping to find some inspiration from KZbin. Your video was on my IPad’s KZbin homepage, so I watched and I’m glad I did. Your humor cheered me up and caused me to laugh out loud several times, especially your comments accompanying the pantry set-ups, which I’ve been intimidated in the past when seeing similar pantry photo-spreads and thought longingly, “if only”. I appreciate your sarcasm on those ultra-organized pantries and am adopting your more lighthearted outlook, including mistakes on paint color selection. I have similar structured mindsets to yours (it’s some form of anal retentiveness 😧, I’m guessing) like grouping “threesies” as I call them, and insisting on height, color and texture variation when accessorizing until I get to the point of wanting to embrace minimalism because I can’t get an area looking perfect by my standards. At least you’ve learned the art of humor and apply it generously to the subject of interior design. I appreciate the fresh perspective. Great job on your video! Your home has good architectural bones and great potential, so I wish you luck and thank you for your “appropriate” influence today.

[@chloehunt5506]

can't wait to watch! in the process of buying a condo in DC right now and love your style!

[@carerealtyco.19]

It’s fun to watch your design choices and see the transformations but the best thing about your channel is your personality. I love how you own your opinions, aren’t afraid to make mistakes, and you are so very funny. I find myself wanting to catch every moment of your videos to catch whatever funny tidbit might come out of your mouth. The humor that you bring to my day (and surely to many other people too) I think in and of itself is an important contribution to the world. So keep being you because it matters! Wishing you well in this new chapter!

[@mariamitchell3879]

I just found your channel and binged every single episode and it motivated me to clean and reorganize my apartment. I love your content especially the guest bedroom makeover at your parents - *NEED* part 2. You are so talented and relatbale. love love love. Telling all my friends about your channel.

[@mariamitchell3879]

PS: Have you heard of the term "Grand Millenial" I feel like that is very much your vibe and I'm here for it! So nice not to see everything beige and white and from a box store.

[@mariamitchell3879]

@@Caroline_Winkler Yeah keep it up your vids are so fun. I love the category of updates you can make to a standard rental - though not sure how motivated i'd be to paint and change back hardware before leaving. But if do more ideas like removeable wallpaper i'd be down to experiment. Styling hacks for each season could be fun - even like what if you offered to virtually help a subscirber redo a small room over zoom? that would be fun / cant tell you how many times ive wanted your input on what to do w my bedroom decor to just make it that extra notch put together. Anyhow ill stop talking now! Bascially anything that can teach us interior design and how to implement it ourselves.

[@Abilitamarie]

Seriously, how are you so beautiful!?!? You are gorgeous. Like I cannot even focus on this video because you are so pretty. I’m a normally quiet person who is laughing out loud to your videos so much it’s freaking out the people I live with. I love interior design & think vulnerable people are the bravest. You are bringing together those things for me and I LOVE it all. Everything your doing is gold (like it’s valuable, not like the color/finish because…) just don’t even doubt it for a second. You’re doing a great job.

[@lizmarin9568]

Love your linen cabinet. Do a pretty peel and stick wallpaper for your bathroom, its renter friendly! Ooh, definitely paint the alcove a dramatic color!! Can't wait to see how your new place evolves. Also your chairs make a nice counterpoint to the more masculine chunky table.

You and I share the exact same style. (Im a vintage junkie.) So when I saw that first apartment I immediately connected with it. And when I saw the other places you toured, I was immediately turned off by them for the same reasons you were turned off. Sometimes you just gotta follow your heart. Your home is your sanctuary and it needs feel 100% comfortable. So Im glad you made the right choice. I love it!

Hi Carolyn, the plant you mention is what used to be called a Rattlesnake Calathea but has recently undergone a name change as it is not really a Calathea it is a Goeppertia insignis. You are doing the right thing with watering by misting as was winter when you filmed this. However, in summertime it will need more water. What I do with mine is take it to the sink every couple of weeks and water it thoroughly. By that I mean, Fill up the sink with water and let the pot sit in the water for about half an hour. The easiest way I have found to see if a plant needs water is to buy a moisture meter which will tell you when it needs water. They’re cheap, you can get them from Amazon, and they have saved the lives of many of my plants. Love your videos. I think you’re gonna make the apartment look gorgeous.

[@larissa6417]

You being you in the videos is so refreshing! Thank you for the great content.

Dear Caroline! Love your attitude! .... about your paint, the colours, and not over-thinking stuff. I think interior design styles, are impractical on the most part.

The plant in your living room fireplace is a calathea lancifolia or “rattlesnake calathea“. They like humidity and bright indirect light. Direct light will burn the leaves.

I just love your style and demeanor, so refreshing. And when you made the comment about storing items in the under sink cabinets, I fell on the floor! And the toilet, don't get me started. I thought I was the only one who felt that way. We just moved into our new condo and I literally have to clean every surface, nook and cranny, before touching it with my things. My husband on the other hand has no such problem. Drives me crazy. Keep them comin'

I so love this apartment and those amber glasses are so so so pretty. I would probably put the bed on the other wall facing the fire place. I know you’re supposed to put it where you can see it from the door to make it a center piece of the room but I think it would make the room feel a lot bigger

[@owlinthehole]

So the first video I watched of yours was the organization one and oh have I been on a journey bingeing your content since then. And I have been laughing the whole time but let me tell you nothing made me laugh more than the bit with the old guy drawing/painting. I don't know why! I laughed until I cried. So, thank you for the laughs, the honesty and bluntness, the inspiration, ideas and the overall good time you allow us to have with your videos!
