EXTREME ROOM MAKEOVER *fairytale vintage + victorian maximalism aesthetic* + DIY

Ta-da!!! My dream vintage office makeover is complete! Be transported to a faraway magical land, a haunted Victorian mansion, or maybe a woodland tea party in this EXTREME cottagecore room transformation. This was such a fun project and I hope you enjoy watching the room come together. Many of these items are things I've collected over the years, others are more recent thrifted finds. What do you think of the final reveal??
Chair legs (wait until they go on sale for half off!): www.hobbylobby.com/Home-Decor...

You have Jenna Marbles energy but in dark academia/witchy style. Same energy, different font, I love it

[@laurelstreed]

I think that's the best compliment I've ever received! ❤❤❤

[@-peyat]

thats such a good anaolgy :0

[@notyouraverageglowup1057]

The way you discribed the Aesthetic for this office is exactly how I would describe my dream house 🤣😂👌🏻🖤✨⚡️💫🌙

[@laurelstreed]

yesssssss! 😍

[@samanthagardner620]

Same!! Its the vibe I'm trying to pull off in my country kitchen right now😊

[@evan007rose]

yes! literally each new description was so perfect!

[@MszCharney]

Yes 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💜

[@Tpot7690]

Same here, I think I found my corner of KZbin 🤗

[@Midlife_Manical_Mayhem]

for future reference: remove the outlet covers before papering. hide the cutting mess when you put it back on.

[@cynthiak.5952]

There's so much personality in this. So much of it is gorgeous. What a wonderful coincidence that you used the same type of wallpaper as bestdressed. I love bestdressed's apartment makeover vids, they're just so deeply satisfying, and I've been searching for the same vibe ever since she stopped making KZbin videos. Upon finding your video, I've realised that the highly specific genre that I crave is eccentric home makeovers with heavily invested narrators that talk about their life, passions, and the decor in equal measure. Please invest in a good desk and chair though, haha.

[@laurelstreed]

Thank you so much!! 🥰 I’m glad you found what you were looking for in my video!

[@Rebelliousrefinement]

I do eccentric makeovers on my KZbin channel, you’re more than welcome to check them out 💕

[@caitydooley9682]

definitely check out ariel bisset and rachel maksy too!!

[@laurelstreed]

@@caitydooley9682 I love Rachel’s channel!

[@stephanieraymond7583]

That's exactly what I was gonna say!!

[@brendabrinton2062]

I love it! Your room looks like a carefully curated museum! So many special moments around it! ❤

[@laurelstreed]

what a compliment!

[@_SarahRhubarb]

"Did I instead invest in a fortune telling station? YES. Welcome to me." I laughed out loud.

[@laurelstreed]

hahah glad I could make you laugh! :)

[@mapistuffyvideos5216]

this is me buying for christmas 😂😂

[@Nwladylaura369]

Just add a set of Runes!

[@ReverieCosplay98]

Oh my gosh!!!! I've been transforming my bedroom into a fairy fantasy forest and I wanted a Victorian inspired office to go with it. You have motivated me to finish my fantasy rooms! Thank you.

[@livb4179]

i’ve never been so happy to stumble upon someone’s channel before. this entire video was perfection. the office turned out so well!!!! beautifully done 🤌🤌

[@laurelstreed]

Omg thank you so much!! 😍😍❤️

[@thewitchyhour]

This is stunning ! We definitely have the same taste. I love everything about this video and Rachel Maksy would love it !!!!

[@laurelstreed]

Omg best compliment ever!! and YES I bet you can tell it was inspired by the amazing Rachel Maksy :)

[@rosyvine7356]

I too am a Virgo and am currently sitting watching you from my own snug/office/craft room/library in England. It has such a similar vibe so was a pleasure to see a like minded fellow Virgo and made me feel a bit less ‘mad’ for the organised chaos that soo brings me joy! You have a new subscriber because of that and look forward to more content. Definitely don’t burn real candles unless you are totally present, I almost had a complete disaster with my wall sconce candles, wax all over the objects below and so close to setting the house on fire. Remote controlled battery candles and flickering bulbs in lights are a worthy and safe alternative. Would love to see your room at night, to get the ambience. Good job girl! X

[@deadgirl1036]

Virgo gang

[@The_Super_NOVA]

I'm impressed how many knick knacks you fit in the room without it feeling cluttered. The different mini themes work really well together! Top notch! Pinterest goals!

[@jilliandreams]

This is all SO EXTREMELY close to my exact taste. My husband and I collect authentic Victorian, but I’m a Hufflepuff who love faeries and unicorns! We’re both artists in every way, so we collect oil paintings, porcelain, tables, chairs (I’m sitting in my 1880’s Hunzinger rocking chair right meow, 😂) and of course I have crystals, and all that too. The only thing I’m missing is a cat. I could use a white Persian cat with blue eyes, name him Sir Pewdence and my life would be complete. 💚 I enjoyed your renovation. 😂👏

[@cozycasasmr4510]

What ana amazing result! This is hands down the best fairy/cottage core room make over I've seen

[@laurelstreed]

omggg thank you! What a compliment!! :)

[@shelannied]

I am a Maximalist who loves "stuff" too. I love what you have done 😁

[@menna7068]

YES FINALLY someone with the same thought as me, my style is everything, all at once.

[@rainbowgirl949494]

I’ve never met someone soooo similar to me in taste like you. when you talked about your ideas & your style... are you my long lost twin or my soulmate?😭 I wish I could meet you one day. I also have so much to learn from you (let’s put my laziness away a little bit)

[@laurelstreed]

I’m glad you like my style and find it similar to yours!! 😍😍😍

[@cinema_chic]

Like you, I'm struggling trying to figure out how to meld the two different aesthetics that I gravitate towards. You did a fabulous job mixing yours and I love it!!! I'm definitely getting some of that wallpaper 😊

[@frankcarter7146]

Great choice of wallpaper, cool gallery wall. Also love the chair legs. Cool vibe.

[@georgebolqvadze1532]

That was absolutely amazing. Simplicity, sense of humor, creativity... 🙌

[@PossiblyAlena]

The blue bag on the floor slowly drooping more and more at 2:39 really hit different

[@laurelstreed]

lol I'm glad someone finally noticed 😂

[@slothburglar]

I'm so glad I found this to take notes from while I plan my steampunk office! Very inspiring, thank you.

[@laurelstreed]

omg that will be so awesome! :)

[@nicoleweeks5783]

Not the first 2 minutes of this video putting my dream aesthetic into words! 😂❤️

[@AleadaA]

Fun décor - my home is created in a similar way of hunt and collect. , I have many religious shrines which inspire my prayer and worship. I do have some Disney, Universal and old objects and the walls are a gallery of my paintings and collected sculpture. Arranging the objects to make esthetic sense and going with your personal interest's make the Maximalist house into a museum of eclectic joy! Great job - now keep looking for your bigger desk and comfy office chair!

[@louiseevans6121]

Wonderful! You decorated your room like all that’s floating around in my brain!!! I adore it!

[@leeannekilgore9477]

I’m new here. I’m so happy to see someone decorate a room to THEIR style and not a trend. I’m so here for it. From the sailboat, to the feather, to the rotten potato and the itty bitty cute mouse holding the light bulb. I love it! 🤗🤗🤗🤗

[@laurelstreed]

🙌🖤

[@ItzmeMina]

I love your humor and personality! Haven't made it through the whole video yet but I will for sure, I'm excited to see how it turns out! I found you through your Arizona videos and I enjoy those a lot as well!

[@laurelstreed]

Thank you!! hope you stick around :)

[@ItzmeMina]

@@laurelstreed Oh for sure!!

[@rhondamitchell5892]

Looks beautiful the little mouse lite is adorable. Oh love it all not to much stuff .

[@jpm12343]

I love your sense of whimsy and imagination.

[@ah5721]

Wall paper makes excellent shelf liners or you could cover over the plastic organizers with it. Just some ideas. I love what you did with the room!

[@terpinator24]

I love the giant list of what the room could be! 😍 lol!

[@laurelstreed]

Hahah 😆❤️

[@WildMeemz]

WOW. Absolutely love this!

[@tracychristenson177]

The description at the beginning of everything you want in a room style sounds very much like my description of the kinds of books I like. I have very broad tastes, I wouldn't begin to know how to put my favorites on a numbered list, and what I want most frequently changes with my mood, which is why I often read multiple books at the same time, just trading them off until they're finished, except that I also frequently start another one before that.

[@hervintagesoul8088]

Omg ur room is indeed a dream room I love all the vintage decorations especially the wall art 😍 u really inspired me 🧡

[@laurelstreed]

I’m so glad 😍😍

[@amairudo5011]

Love your room makeover and style it is so beautiful.

[@laurelstreed]

Thank you so much!! 🤩

[@boundlessasia_6449]

How you explained what you wanted to feel like is the exact words I’ve been trying to explain how I want my new office to look and feel. Beautiful makeover and will definitely be taking inspiration

[@chrisholzhauer3698]

This was delightful. What a jewel box of a room!

[@Jilb8]

Oh this room is just stunning! 😍 heading to insta straight away to save all of the photos as inspiration for my own place!

[@laurelstreed]

oh thank you!! :D

[@ivonnecastro3569]

Gorgeous!!! i love it! I wish I could do this to my daughter's room, shes 15 but not into stuff like this... i am lol.. If it wasnt for my husband I would do my bedroom like this lol It turned out beautiful, great job!

[@laurelstreed]

She might later in life ☺️

[@deforestbearse3136]

Fantastic! What an accomplishment! Great work!

[@i_want_to_be_sunshine]

[@laurelstreed]

[@stephaniemeadows6796]

I love the wizard stuff omg

[@elijahhaas2682]

I really love the fancy clock on the dresser! Also, that fringed lamp is just perfect! I love the room so much! I will never tire of rooms, and houses that make me think of haunted Victorian mansions!

So delightful a room! I'd be squealing with joy everytime I'd walk in.

[@laurelstreed]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@barbarasantiago8305]

That little "dresser"is acutally a night stand that would be next to a bed. Love the room, very elegantly eclectic!! The work desk would look better with a older looking desk, if you can come arcoss one. But over all, it's an awesome room, love the wall paper. Great job!! :)) I too decorate in a very eclectic way, and wouldn't do it any other way! :)))

[@livingauthenticallyonmyownterm]

Everything is so cozy and Magickal !!! 🌹🌹🌹

[@traceygleghorn3163]

Hi Laurel, this room is stunning. Its eclectic, oldy worldly and enthuses the past. You have same taste as me, eg. Old typewriter, old radio, old telephone. Love it all and well done.
