I MADE SOME UPGRADES TO MY CRIB! DIY DAINA IS BACK...

[@ofemiharris3721]

Consider releasing the hem of the curtain (bottom) to make it longer.

[@hairdreams6729]

It's giving "Ahmet must have left with just the clothes on his back" BECAUSE it looks like all the furnishings in the house belonged to Daina.

[@sammyknows_]

She brought alot new but answer yep men only care about cars

[@hairdreams6729]

👍👍👍👏👏👏😁😁😁

[@beejay247]

Aliyah's speech has improved tremendously, she's a smart little girl , telling you 'night night' when the curtains were closed

[@jamilaosman3628]

Daina, your soul is so pure , your perseverance and courage is just so inspiring for me . Look at you shine . Despite everything …just look at you . Keep going ..thank you for never giving up ! X

[@veliciahiley7652]

Amen.

[@jusTOOfresh]

Waitttt, how do you know if a person’s soul is pure? Asking for a friend 😅

[@HOT8CHOCOLAT3]

That baby is so happy, I swear.

[@LoveYayila]

her little squeals and laughter 🥹 then she’s always excited to say new words and copy daina i love it soo much lol

[@cleonadivineofficial]

Back in the day I used to work as a window treatment specialist at dunelm 😅 the type of curtains that fit on a track are Pencil Pleat. I’m sure you can find some nice luxurious Black ones. ☺️

[@sharon5902]

Just a suggestion If there’s a hem on the bottom of the curtains you can let it out and it will make the curtains a inch or two long to cover that small gap.

[@lindal3841]

Aliyah's little baby rambles and giggles😊❤

[@jacquelltate4816]

I like what you did I think you should return those black curtains and get them a little long. You did great job in your home😊

[@krissy9128]

I love how she stans MJ because..same! It's only right to stan the greatest artist the world has ever seen 🔥 Your eye for detail and decorating is so good! I'm here for your black and white phase (decor, clothing, nails etc) lol I just live for neutral colours...black, white, Grey, nude. Red/pink etc gets thrown in every now and then.

[@gd1807]

Omg why was I shouting Noooooo! At the black drapes/curtains choke-holding the window in the living room 😂😂😂 Is giving me anxiety. The ceiling to floor gives a much more Lux look and feel (the drapes/curtains with the tracks would have been cool if the track was electric and you can open and close with a remote ) could you not return the Amazon ones and get a longer length? The Chokehold curtains ain’t it 😂 The black curtains seems so heavy in such a small room.

[@shatikac]

I’m I the only one who was fighting with themselves about commenting on the length of the curtains?

[@godsservant279]

Lol I was on live with you earlier when you couldn't get your footage to upload onto your computer and Aaliyah was being chaotic asking for cookies NONSTOP and you even saying there would be no video and you ended the live to go cook for you guys. It was such cute chaos and Aaliyah is a whole mess and I love it. So after all that I appreciate the fact that you still made it work somehow and now we have a video! ❤

[@ndzalln]

I love DIY Daina vlogs. Your ideas about what is possible and belief in yourself in delivering it is inspiring! Also is that the freshly cleaned passage carpet i glimpsed? Looks like Mr Carpet Cleaner man did a good job lol👍🏾

[@beckat7975]

Yeeeessssssss I love the diy make overs. But then black curtains would annoy me letting in that extra light at the bottom lol I would have to get longevity one. Your a true stylist and I still can’t believe how you just think of these things and come up with them and how easy you make it look. Thank you, I really appreciate the handy tips

[@raejae5565]

For above the fireplace you can get canvas sets where one image is spread over a number of separate canvases, sometimes all different sizes. It might add a lil jenny say qua to the wall 🤌🏽

[@al-bakersophie6583]

That's a good idea for projecting je ne sais qoui. It will make the wall really stand out as the focal point. Nice one!

[@Poeticfloetic]

Not Jenny 😭🤣😭🤣😭🤣😭💯👌🏾🔥♥️

[@Poeticfloetic]

@@al-bakersophie6583 *Je ne sais quoi 🇫🇷

[@Fleurr5678]

you can get the curtains altered! to have the hem released :)

[@Annikaymusic]

You need like a bank card or something similar to smooth out the contact paper bubbles as you do it hun, house looking good x

[@keysuniverse]

I love the DIY Daina!!! I can't wait to see all of the decor organized, assembled and installed. Where the Malcom X canvas painting is if you switch to frames why don;t you and Aaliyah take black and white pics or have your album cover as a canvas or frame.

[@ndzalln]

What a beautiful idea! She said in a live she finally has official custody of Aaliyah🙏🏾would be lovely to commemorate💖

[@kaishaeniwumide]

You did a great job with the DIY. Im a D.I.Yer myself & did my house room to room takes longer but saves hundreds in labor 😂.

[@liastorm795]

DIY Daina is ALWAYS goin to do the damn thing!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 And your nails always eat down😍

[@fifidefreitas1045]

Daina, i applaud you. You have been resilient through many trials and battles that dont even make it on camera. Congrats on your perseverance. ❤🎉

[@isabellakefas5692]

Daina i love you and i understand why you dont want them to be but the length of the curtains need to be ceiling to floor🙏

[@Ariesxoxo11]

You could buy some extra material from the fabric store and extend the curtain yourself in a velvet black would look nice as a contrast. 🙂

[@ashleye.d.5160]

Rit dye does make dye for synthetic fabrics. Just see what the fabric of you skirt and jacket set is and then if you find the synthetic fabric dye it’ll tell you which fabrics it works on. Also for the green stitching on the denim skirt and jacket set you could probably try a black sharpie permanent marker and color the stitching. Everything you’ve done looks great btw!

[@NaddyMouna]

Those dylon pods are to revive clothes that are already black, you need a proper fabric dye for it to actually change colour. I think people always use the Rit ones

[@NaddyMouna]

I know cos I did this too and had the same reaction lol

[@janetjohnson9690]

The fireplace looks nice.

[@kutieblue]

Get another curtain, cut it in half and stitch it to the bottom to get rid of that light at the bottom.

[@moonchild66]

Love ur Diy videos❤its the little things that make a big difference! Im addicted to diy and home decor!!! Love it❤❤❤

[@Mabunt3]

The way I got so excited when I thought Daina was going to play Mouf. I can't wait for her to release the full song.

[@shingi98]

The fact that I've been following you since your colourful Tumblr days is actually WILD! Tootsie time to now... And now we're in a whole new era all over again 🥺 Im genuinely so proud of you ❤

[@mmurray3136]

💕💕 Love love loooove !! this content 👍 👏👏👏. Can wait to see more room make overs.

[@briabeth]

You should do black and gray leather paint on your diner chairs and bench. Black on the red parts and gray on the middle white parts, or keep the white part and just do black on the red parts. Angelus leather paint is really good and it dries quickly.

[@jabezh7435]

You can take the hem out of the curtains if you want them longer

[@karmellla]

Love that your tiles were the perfect height and such a quick easy change. I have no excuse not to put mine up 😩

[@ayamempress1579]

The many-hooks curtains are okd school... when people talk about grandmas house.... thise are the curtains she had. Considered quite posh back then, lol

[@ThatsEunice]

I love home decor DIY videos.

[@A.B777]

Can the curtains be unhemmed?

[@Poeticfloetic]

Yes. My mum is a dressmaker and that is a move she would do.

[@Mawusi777]

I love how your changing the decor...As i was enjoying and i heard Aaliyah say: Aww shut up! I fell out😂😅😂❤😘💖. Sweet lil munchkin 😘 14:38

[@Sacred_Em]

Ahhh those short curtains were giving me anxiety as were the hooks on the ilets, loving the other changes tho ❤

[@CCCMom_]

Black and white photos of Aaliyah above the fireplace .. I did that of my daughter

[@BackTight]

I gotta say I like these videos of yours the best.

[@markk4473]

Make sure u stick a lot of those command strips on mirror and get the correct 1 strong enough that holds weight of mirror or use gorilla glue. When I was moving 3 years ago, I hung mirror picture artwork with command strips and broke into pieces next day I went

[@jusme2266]

Class up the joint with mated black king and black queen tall paintings over the fireplace.

[@sarahm8464]

That motion sensor is such a staple in the room, brighter spaces are a lot better than closed off dark spaces and especially when the rooms are a little small. Try adding light panels under the kitchen worktops for added brightness, they just look cuter. Ive just added them to my kitchen too Do you enjoy rustic decor maybe? could try experimenting with that

[@amyh553]

1:32 “Let’s get into these Barney, I love you, you love me ass, looking curtains” 😂😂😂lol😂😂😂 ffs girl

[@cupcake1065]

Daina are you going to go back to the videos where you read out people’s dating/relationship dilemmas? You’re such a good story teller. I loved those videos and the vibe you created.

When did she ever leave? 😊 Look forward to watching this in a bit

[@sabirinomer8545]

Girl I love the black and monochrome thing you got going on 😍 however I think you can deffo do better with those curtains, feel like you need something longer and wider to create some pleats

[@bluereign]

Yep they're called "pencil pleat" curtains with hooks. If you ever need to buy more

[@sammyknows_]

You push the lights with fingers if their puck lights and their battery or some usb charge. Those normally push on batteries in.

[@anythinggoes1236]

Child a green 💚 tiger 🐅😂 love you

[@suzacorcino6290]

Should of said this before, but for future it helps to use a card, I use my Matalan card, to get the contact paper flat and get to bubbles out easily

[@patriiciiax]

If the synthetic fabrics dont dye, theres a good dye for it: iDye Poly synthetic fabric dyes

[@anapreciado5064]

You should start a little clay project on that mirror, I think it would look so nice !

Time to get rid of those damn American diner chairs next. Just call it a day

You sound angry

Daina, where do you get your jewellery? I struggle to find hoop earrings and accessories that don’t irritate my skin due to the metal they’re made out of! (Love your content btw, much love ❤️)

You can coat the part that goes through the lobe with clear nail polish. That should prevent them reacting. That's what I do. ❤

They are probably ikea curtains that’s what I have and they have those kind of hooks for the ceiling track

The dyes leave them in a bucket or bowl with water and dye over night and check its progress next day see how dark its got my 1 wash dye didn't work leaving it did.
