Extreme SMALL BEDROOM MAKEOVER // Styling Tips + Antiques + Wallpaper + Thrift -- Renter Friendly!

[@ashleyrose1840]

It’s SO refreshing to find an interior KZbinr who also leans towards the more classic and traditional style. I love a traditional space with more modern and contemporary accents, I find it’s usually the opposite on here (modern with touches of classic/vintage/etc) your space is beautiful!

[@drdnicebeaugelin]

Same.

Dude brook linen is EXPENSIVE bougey sheets! Like $100 for just a flat sheet! You want superior quality linens? Target. For $20 you can get a sheet set from their essentials line. Legit the BEST SOFTEST sheets I’ve ever slept on. Suck it brooklinen 👎🏿💩

[@moxxibekk]

Agreed. I have a 1920s bungalow, and when we had our basement redone they came back with a very "suburban builder" style and layout. My husband and I noped that concept and said if we wanted a suburban feel we would have moved to the suburbs. We actually retained the original support beam and will be using it in our pergola design next year! Reduce, reuse, recycle ♻️

I must say the reason I'm attracted to your channel is due to your honesty and realistic approach to things. Its really nice to see someone renovate or decorate a room on a realistic budget, which can be done by anyone on any budget. It's really refreshing.

Caroline, I thought I was a lost cause but the more I look at your videos the more I am inspired to just do something, anything at all that would be an improvement on the constant chaos that surrounds me. I am 58 and have ADHD and it borders on impossible for me to create order and calmness anywhere and I know you will think this is crayzeeee but I am so proud of myself because after four years of living in this house, which I own, I have finally managed to decorate the top of my beautiful, custom made mantle with a small selection (small is a huge achievement for me) of cohesive objects that I love and it looks so cool. I am now inspired to try and find the floor of my bedroom and do something with that bedlam with a bed. Thanks a mill from a grateful subscriber in Ireland 💕💕

Since one cannot live on interior design alone, thanks for bringing Luke and for giving men on dating apps a good scolding.

[@noemikruppa2086]

What I mostly loved about this redesign is your approach on art, especially when you talked about the piece your cousin made. Just hearing you talk about what it meant while looking at the canvas made me feel so many things. I think where a lot of interior designers miss the mark for me is their superficial approach on art as just an accessory that has to “go” with the rest of the decor. I love the “start with the art” approach, where you curate a meaningful and valuable collection (valuable to you, not necessarily in an investment sense) and build your spaces around that.

[@tki6087]

I deeply agree with you. 💕

[@ericaobrien1563]

Love the cousin's piece and the story!

[@ericaobrien1563]

My "art" is such a crazy collection of original pieces, prints, found art, post/birthday cards that I liked the image and framed, one of my favorites is the framed telegram and envelope informing my grandparents of my month early birth while they were traveling internationally. 1970 so no interwebs or cell phones. I just want to have pieces that I have an affinity for, it's my space and I want things that are for me.

[@TheHolywren]

I’m a Granny .I’ve hung more old school wallpaper on both walls and ceilings( even the prehistoric paste it yourself stuff)in my Victorian revival world. Just bought a downsize cottagecore type home and I was just about to turn in my snap line and ladder forever due to frustration with peel and stick but you’ve given me hope.

[@lindagutierrez5409]

So glad, you emphasize home and not the baloney premise that mortgage lenders push, false mentality of pride of home ownership. I own my tiny mobile home but pay space rent. Absolutely love it. Home is about people, family, neighbors and friends whom we love. I can’t afford to buy a house, but I can afford to live comfortably and happily in my tiny house.

[@inflorire]

I like that your content considers accessibility. I recently purchased my first home and so many channels are like “$800 makeover!” But then they use a bunch of expensive power tools and build custom closets or something. Maybe they only spent a few hundred dollars on cheap wood or supposedly inexpensive thrifted pieces (I have my own doubts about the bts of “thrifting” content we see online), but because I’m starting at 0 in a small row home, it would easily get into the thousands for me. Most people don’t have lots of power tools, a professional work shop, or carpentry experience, we’re going to mess up our homes if we try to go all out right away. These renter friendly makeovers allow me to learn as I go. Eventually I hope I can take on some bigger challenges too.

YES to a ceiling moment! And to the conversation about the wall decor. I need the things I put on my walls to mean something to me. Weather its sentiments or it speaks to my soul. I will not hang things just cause eh... its nice or simply works in the space. I want to look around me and feel joy. I'm a very visual person to. Thank you SO much for this video.

When you sneezed I said "Bless you" like you were gonna hear me. No I haven't had enough coffee, today. Love this video💕💕

[@NinisPaninis]

As a dental assistant I can tell you: When you're whitening your teeth, you should avoid black coffee until 48 hours after the bleaching - use flourid fluid as post-treatment (it closes the enamel structure and avoid color particles to enter). If you love your coffee as much as the air you breathe (like I do), put a lot of milk in it - it REALLY works and avoids tooth-coloring in a long time term (dunno if this sentence is makes sense - I'm german)! Green tea leaves gray stains, black tea obviously black/brown spots. But 2 days later you should be totally fine. I would try white tea - it's actually pretty nice. by the way: I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS. I'm binging them for hours now. 🙌

Love this, Caroline! My favorite (so far) of all your makeovers. And I learned a new styling term -- friction! -- a style I've incorporated for years. I am n.o.t. a fan of matchy-matchy (for myself). Love your gallery corner wall! My gallery wall in the living room is very cohesive and symmetrical -- but, in the powder room, it is very random, and I love them both. (Tip: when your significant other says, "You're going to put *another* hole in the wall??!!?" -- the proper response can be, "Oh, honey, that ship sailed 10 years ago.") Thanks for keeping us informed and inspired and entertained!

I LOVE how you renovate for real people, real budgets, real spaces. Thank you! Love the colors and textures. I'm big on texture, and prints register in my mind as visual texture. I don't like the black fireplace -- it's like a door into some void. Light grey, off-white, even a very light butter yellow would have given it character, tied it into the room, and not given the effect of sucking space into a black hole.

[@jennifergilbert-potts645]

"It's never calm in here, so I need the exterior space to be calm". YES. That's exactly how my husband and I both feel. How I design our spaces has become so important.

I get intimidated and would watch videos on just how to hang things up on walls correctly, like the nuts and bolts of it - what nails to use, etc. But more seriously, I rent a studio and would be interested in how to upgrade the crusty kitchen and bathroom faucets! Also, I really like your cousin's painting and concept behind it!

My daughter drink coffee with a straw when she is concerned about keeping her teeth white. Most teas that have caffeine can stain teeth. If you doing the tea thing for warmth there are teas with not much color. They stain, we use to stain cloth by using plants to color them.

Not my style BUT. The fact that it's CLUTTER FREE AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! 🥰🥰🥰 Like to me, that's the most important part of interior design!! Clutter free, inviting space!! Nice work 👌🏽

The room is really cute. I love the fireplace, the gallery corner and the styling. On a side note, tea will stain your teeth more than coffee but my dentist says it is easier to remove. So having your teeth professionally cleaned twice a year at your dentist will probably be sufficient.
