Tiny bedroom makeover on a budget! Decluttering and decorating

[@KK-rs1wn]

Your Nan is absolutely beautiful and seems like such a kind and fun-spirited lady! Great job on the room - it looks cozy!

[@nancyanneberg403]

Do you know how relieving it is to see and hear your Nan laugh? You did a calm and clean fix. Balanced. Thank you. Encourages me to finish up my own but of space.

[@nancyanneberg403]

Bit of space (not but)

[@Rachael40660]

Looks fantastic - so refreshing to see interior inspiration for realistic rooms sizes/shapes and budgets on youtube!

[@Angora573]

The room looks so fresh now, and much bigger. I love your sweet Nan, she's very glamourous and always looks so well put together. And, your cousins are adorable x

[@rxse7494]

The fresh coat of paint brightened the room making it feel more spacious.

[@girl4granted]

Your Gran looks so stylish, she stole the show. I can see why you decided to move closer to family! Hugging our loved once are such a blessing. My parents are 5000km away and I miss them every single day.

[@watever328]

For the curtain issue, you could use Command Strips curtain rod hooks. It doesn't require any drilling and I heard it works well

[@glendagrant9042]

Yes they work well. Just lightweight curtains which I am sure you do not want heavy ones in that room. I think with the small room maybe just go with the windows as is. More open feeling.

[@DCupcake58]

I was thinking the same. I used the hooks only in a matte silver finish and used cafe rings to clip on to a sheer panel. Even a vintage tablecloth from a resale shop would work as a curtain.

[@julianne089]

I came here to say this! Ive used them for curtains in my apartments, And funny I think I got the idea from a Hermione video a few years ago!

[@leedarcy]

I saw just this week on another KZbin channel someone using the new Command broom/mop holders as curtain rod holders-- really neat idea, but possibly expensive (I think they run about $8 each here in the US). Regular command hooks might be more affordable and just as effective, depending on the type.

[@parkerrose3590]

I was thinking the same thing. Saw a KZbin Video on it.

[@cathylynnpietranton]

Hermione the bedroom turned out really great and you got your Nan's approval. thumbs up👍👍❤

[@YayaTo2]

Curtain rods: Either the kind that hang from the ceiling or a very long tension rod that can go from wall to wall. The cousins are so very sweet and it's always good to see Your Nan! The room turned out lovely!

[@katbar6066]

Agree. The tension rods are a good idea.

[@galinamarcus]

Double that!

[@abcdefgold]

@@katbar6066 she did say in the video though - any ideas that 'aren't a tension rod' 😂

[@cloudberryfields]

I was gonna suggest the ceiling, too!

[@darlaemberton9349]

Yes, IKEA has curtain tracks that go on the ceiling.

[@tonya2719]

I feel like your personality is coming out SO much in your last few videos and I loooove it!! Keep it up girl!

[@deeannemason7003]

The little desk, I would stain and seal the top and leave the wood look. You can always paint the legs and drawer. It makes the top pop. Glass over the top would protect it if it’s heavily used. The room is so airy and comfortable. A great place for guests. I can imaging a great nap there!

[@mariannerady1137]

Gosh, your nan is the sweetest! Great job on the room, it looks so comfy and freshened up

[@pamprier4710]

Hermione, you set things into their places with such deliberate care. Watching you do so, has a calming effect.

[@HermioneChantal]

Awww thank you 🥰💖 that’s such a lovely comment

[@jesswueb9505]

i would like to come and stay in this room pleaseeeee! so charming. also love that desk, and I do love how worn it is! gives a little cottage by the sea vibes

[@29028ft]

Curtains: you just need the right drill and drill bit! The wall is likely brick, concrete, or some sort of stone. You need an impact driver (also called a hammer drill) and a masonry bit. Then it’s super easy to drill into. For screws, you’ll also need to make sure to buy masonry screws - look for TapCons or any screws that say they are for masonry/brick

[@uscitizen898]

Perfect advice for Hermione, Sophia! We live in an earth-sheltered home and the walls, ceiling and floors are concrete. That's exactly how we make holes in the walls for curtain rods, artwork, etc.

[@dhenukita]

I always look forward to seeing your nan in your videos. She’s so lovely! 🌷Great job as usual, Hermione! Edited to add: And the lovely cousins! They’re so stinking cute.

[@HermioneChantal]

Awww thank you for such a lovely comment 🥰💖

[@lily8069]

I've used the black large command strips and a black curtain rod. Worked really well and I even had heavier blackout curtains on it and it held for years.

[@Nuriya101Maddison]

Your Nan is so cute. Bless her.

[@striketochill]

Ikea sells tracks for curtains that you can install on the ceiling! They also make other ceiling mounted curtain rods too :)

[@misslyntheena]

Your style is so different from other influencers at the moment, bc you use what you and your family have already and thrift. Also your colour scheme is so unique, always reminds me of spring. 🥰 Love the outcome, your makeovers are more realistic and really on a budget and it’s nice to see what can already be done with small changes and hard work 💪🏼

[@antzieisme]

What a lovely makeover and I love that the room is small for real because I have small rooms at home and whenever I see makeover videos the rooms are so much bigger and I get unrealistic ideas haha

[@VanesaGArias]

Oh your Nan is so cute!! The change of this bedroom is amazing ☺️

[@jacspratt1786]

So glad I came across your video. I’ve been in two minds about purchasing the Benjamin Moore paint which I found at Brewers as it’s quite expensive. I’m definitely going to go ahead with my project now. Again I was hesitant as I was looking for someone in the UK who would give me a non-biased review. Thanks for that. I’m so excited.

[@kimmhclouthier2594]

Room looks so much better. Nan did a top notch job on the door knob. She’s a doll.

[@victoriabrown3241]

Large heavy duty command strips. A lightweight dowel and lightweight curtains! 😊

[@HermioneChantal]

I love this idea 😍 it sounds easy and affordable! I’ll try it next time!

[@cool3041]

Nan is lovely 😍 God bless her 🙌🏻

[@luordonez657]

I Just LOVE Nan!

[@rebeccarendle3706]

Use a light wood rod with muslin curtains.. And double sided strong tape to hang curtains. Lovely room

[@marilynpowell6881]

Hi Hermione, What a lovely family you've got. I love your Nan, she must be very proud of you and your lovely transformations. Thanks xxx

[@annettewilkinson5750]

The room looks fabulous and your Nan and your cousins are all so cute.

[@hollywood7702]

Oww your sweet cousins and Nan was such a treat!! You can always put a curtain line from the ceiling.

[@Sasasaurus]

Love that the new cushions are the same colour as your hair and purple fuzzy top as you place them! 😍 beautiful space. Love your Nan!

[@vanillaskye55]

I love that as you are obsessing over lilac and burnt orange. You are wearing lilac with your read hair. Clearly it's a tried and true combo. Also. Try hanging a rod from the ceiling. However, I don't think it needs it.

[@caerrie]

Well done on the room! And your nan is just lovely, such a stylish lady!

[@rach3670]

Gorilla glue a wooden batten to the wall and fix the curtain rod to that- as long as curtains aren't too heavy it works fine, I had same issue in my old house - love your videos! 🥰

[@katherinestephens7674]

Your Nan is everyone's wish for a Grandmother...wat a delightful woman and you too

[@junehulton8320]

Aww lovely for you to do that for your Nan...she is a lovely lady xx great job .

[@johnnycharles319]

Hi 👋 June how are you doing? Hope you don’t mind if I subscribe to your channel

[@helenjones1226]

I’ve used those Command broom grippers to hang a curtain pole and lightweight curtains. They’ve stayed up over a year now. Just use the grippers horizontally instead of vertically and paint them to either match the wall or the curtain pole. Hope that helps!

[@johnnycharles319]

Hi 👋 Helen how are you doing? Hope you don’t mind if I subscribe to your channel

[@nitzeart]

Such a beautiful transformation. Now it looks like a little boutique hotel room. So great! And btw, that hair colors looks beautiful on you! It’s like a miracle, like you man said haha she’s always so sweet What about some command hooks for the curtains? Or hang them from the ceiling? If the wall is brick or concrete you only need the drill bit for it, one for concrete. I don’t know what they’re called in English. Masonry bit maybe? And a good drill, non battery ones are usually more powerful. But if you hit a supporting chain or pillar then yes, it is basically impossible to drill into it, as it’s like drilling into rock, that has happened to me :(

[@hollyhasegawa6095]

Oh my goodness Hermione, you did an amazing job with this small but amazing room, and the new paint really does brighten the whole area up, I really love those throw pillows, the two colors together are so amazing. I'm with your Nan, she is so right it looks beautiful, I love seeing your Nan she is so sweet. I agree with one of the other comments, Command strips are really good to use and the curtain rod hooks are amazing. Thanks again Hermione for another wonderful video, take care and I look forward to your next one, sending love and hugs, bye for now.😄😘

[@veronicabone8835]

Beautiful room and beautiful Nan! She is adorable!❤️

[@greenwillow5404]

Wonderful makeover, Hermione! Love your little cousins! What sweeties. The largest command hooks are great for hanging up curtain rods. Just make sure you get the ones that can bear the most weight. They won’t look all that stylish, I know. Perhaps a quick spray paint if a color you fancy. 💕, Kate

[@beautifulsoul3983]

Nan brings life to ur videos,that special smile, I love her. More appearances of hr in th videos please. Thanks

[@frankieb43]

The room looks so lovely and cosy. I love the Lloyd loom cupboard. Your family is so lovely ❤️. Thank you for making makeovers accessible and affordable. Xx

What a big difference and the room looks so much better! You’re Nan is so sweet, as are your cousins. 🥰❤️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

For the curtains, there are curtain rods you can hang from the ceiling.

[@HermioneChantal]

Never even thought of that thank you so much 😃

We have velcro in our rental place, it was left by the previous tenants. It's like tape on the other side and thats how it sticks to the wall, and velcro on the other and the curtans just stick to it 👍

Wow, great job as always with the room, your nan and cousins are so cute.

[@atr0phaneura726]

It's funny what you say about the popcorn ceiling, because in my country it has never gone out of fashion. Apparently it's a matter of practicality, if you are going to rent out a house to God knows who, or you have a lot of kids, you're going to have that not only in the ceiling but all over the walls. Smooth walls are only for houses where that won't happen haha

[@bridgettebollig2649]

You could use a few large Command hooks above the windows and rest the curtain rod on them. I did this in an apartment and they stayed up for 2 years.

[@Styledandorganized]

I had a lot of great things to say about the transformation but then your nan made an appearance and now all I want to say is how lovely she is!! First of, she's so young!! Second, she's so elegant and beautiful, her outfit was so youthful but appropriate and she has simply the sweetest giggles! You're so lucky to still have your nan around at this age and on top of it, having her look and feel so amazing. But yes, great room transformation too haha

[@RiverTamZoe]

You could try self adhesive curtain rod holder but make sure you get some that can hold alot of weight. Since the curtain is by a bed they may get pull on by mistake. I saw one on Amazon that claim it could hold 22lb. They also sale curtain rod holder that you attach from the ceiling. Dont know if that work for you but you can try that also. Other wise you need to buy or rent a drill with masonry drill bit if your wall is brick or cement . if you have a drill you can just buy the bits. Predrill the hole then install curtain rod older. You may need to change the screw that you have but that base on your wall. They sale tons of screw thats for masonry walls. I live in old fl home where the wall are cement blocks and thats what i do on. Also it could be where she tried to install the bracket for the curtain rod. It could of been on metal plate and if you extended it out more you have better luck. I say try to hammer a long nail in and you can guess what back there. I had that problem with one window they put a metal corner piece around it i had to move where i wanted the bracket until i found a spot where it didnt have it. I do the nail check now if i can't get it all the way in its wood i need to predrill, if goes in easy hollow wall need support and base on the wall and weight will determine what type i buy. If it didnt go deep enought could be metal since thats over drywall but under plaster then all you can do is mover it to side. Sorry for the long comment but since i didnt know what type of wall you had i just gave you all of my idea

[@xMaggieAngelx]

Love the room😍 And your family seems like the sweetest people

[@spookiestevieee]

I use the heavy duty extra large metal command hooks with curtain rods to hang curtains! It works really well!

[@annyates7212]

Hi ! You could add voile curtains to the window, just get some lengths of wood and attach to the top of the window on the wall using no nails and perhaps a few screws and then attached to rail 🙂

[@RelaxIveHadCoffee]

You did a great job, and Nan is beautiful! Loved this!

[@sam31101]

could you use command hooks and drape cool over.them.to make curtains that won't be useful but may soften the window a little. x

[@linjaysha]

Love your nan and the cousins are cute! The room looks great...so much brighter and open! Regarding curtains; there are curtain rods that you can mount on the ceiling. If you can drill into the ceiling then hang your curtains from there!

[@denisesrazzledazzlenails9606]

Love the transformation! Cute cousins!! 🤗

[@barbaracarbone4658]

Awesome makeover. The room looks great. For curtains you could use wire secured on hooks at either end. Slide the wire through the curtains.

[@larag1764]

ps I appreciate that you always use what you have, add thrifted items and don't spend a fortune or rely on expensive items from sponsors like so many other channels.

[@itsamyyy91]

To try putting curtains up maybe u could try an impact drill since it's an outside wall? Alternatively try command hooks with a lightweight rod & curtain

[@shannonshanks4078]

You and your Nan are both so lovely. Wonderful makeover as always!

[@susanpassfield4135]

My advice on the curtain/window situation is to cover the shades in fabric, or stencil them. Those windows can use some color. Nice job

Well aren't your cousins adorable! If they are anything like I was att heir age, they're probably thinking ... "oh no if Hermione can do this in one day, that means I have to tidy my room!" You've definitely inspired me to do a bit more work in my tiny box room / study. Off to Homebase it is :)

[@anaasensio7147]

For the curtains you can drill into the ceiling instead of the wall! I've seen it done by other diy channels

[@Junes.dreams.uk_]

You can hang curtains by drilling on the ceiling 😉.

[@Darenim]

You can make holes in those outside walls with a jackhammer. I hope that that is the right translation (in Dutch it's 'drilboor'), but it is the drill that kind of pummels the wall. The room turned out so lovely!

[@natomaton]

an impact driver!
