#BOHNAFIDE

In order to move forward with our home renovation we need to pick out our appliances!! You would think this would be easy for me, but there are so many amazing options at the Midland Appliance Showroom in Richmond, BC that it has become a little more difficult than I thought! Thankfully Marty was there to walk us through all our options and help us choose what is right for our lifestyle and floor plan. I hope you learn more about choosing appliances for your own home or project and get some insight on the hottest new technology in home appliances! If you are looking for your own appliances or have any questions, be sure to contact Marty at www.midlandappl... and tell them we sent you!!
If you liked this episode, please let me know by giving it a thumbs up and if there are any specific parts of a home renovation you would like to see, please let me know in the comments below!!

Dear Karin, I am based here in Northern Ireland and I've been recently watching your great program on Netflix. That's where I first fell in love with your work, then I found this channel. I've traveled and lived abroad in the Middle East for over 10 years returning home to care for my mum who had cancer and recently a stroke. I've always loved interior design and architecture. I have been involved in getting my mum's house ready for her return home from hospital. When she arrived home she loved what I achieved in such a small place in her house. I've tried to make it cosy, with a cottage in the country vibe. I must tell you that you have completely inspired me in all that you do; your positive 'must do' approach to life and your unprecedented talent are awe-inspiring; it puts hope and faith back into my life after dealing with my mum's illness. At the age of 52 years young and with your inspirational work I've finally signed up for an Interior Design course; change of career and I feel you are never too old for to embody and embrace the creative process. I will continue watching your channel and I hope from time to time you might give me some advice on design. Namaste and may you continue to inspire and lead by example! xx

Hi Karin, to be honest, what you're doing with these videos is so important, because it gives people hope. I've studied the same program on BCIT as you did, but than took on a career as a photographer in New York. However throughout the years I've been missing design so much that I've decided to go back and start my career in interior design. For some reason it's been so terrifying to start, but your videos gave me so much pleasure and strength to believe in myself and go after the shit I want to happen for my life. Hands down, you are badass! Thank you so much..

[@superisraelichick]

Omg ur so gorgeous and talented! U remind me of sandra bullock.For the last 15 yrs i have been dreaming to be an interior designer . I was signed up for the program and my ex talked me out of it. And so, i went to school for a profession that i cant stand. Throughout the yrs, i got very sad and resentful that i had never pursued my dream, and slightly envious of those that did. Today, 15 yrs later i finally decided to put an end to my dream, and to turn it into a reality. I never felt so alive and so happy knowing where im headed. It will be difficult to study again after allThese yrs, and i dont know how i will do it financially, but all i know is that i wont let ANYTHING get in the way or stop me this time. It will be a min of five yrs before i can design, but i will decorate in the meantime till i get qualified. Ive been designing my condos and my friends for as long as i can remember. So I started to research on youtube what its like to be a designer - and stumbled across your Chanel . I absolutely love your energy and love how so down to eaeth you are, lets just say the video was only playing for 10 sec before i hit the subscribe button. Thank you! And i will be following 😄

[@KarinBohn]

Hi Again! It's so great that you're feeling inspired - it means so much to me to hear that because that's what I hope for with my channel. Thank you so much for watching my content! PS - I've be told I look like Sandra Bullock before. Funny because I'm German/Chinese!! xK

[@msl5131]

superisraelichick You sound similar to me only I couldn't nail down what I wanted to do when I got my degree. Now I'm older & know I would love this career path but I don't know about going back to school at this stage of the game! I keep thinking perhaps I could do SOME aspect of the design world working for a designer; for ex., I'd be great sourcing furniture/accessories for projects. Is this a job, Karin??😊

[@lovinggossipgirl]

i'm an interior design student and i honestly love your videos :) Not only do you give good information but your videos also inspire me to design

[@KarinBohn]

Hi!! Awe, you're so sweet! Thanks for commenting on my videos... I'm so happy to hear that you feel inspired when you watch them. Thanks so much for watching!! xK

[@emspura8714]

Im a huge fan from Restaurants on the Edge. So happy to find your channel! I love the tips, the philosophy, and practicality. 💖

[@ByersLeafguard]

Really nice tips on appliances. They are bigger purchases so all the details and interworkings really matter.

[@r4vis]

THanks to this video i am not that lost anymore about how furnish an apartment. Now i now i have to buy the appliances before anything else :)

[@bronteshannon8752]

Karin I just wanted to say thank you so so much for inspiring me x I am currently 15 years old and live in Australia and am 100% I will be doing Interior Design when I leave school. Everyone of your videos I make notes on and ready over heaps.... You inspire me so so much and I hope that one day I can share my passion and love for Interiors and House design, as well as inspire others just like and as much as you do ! xxx

[@carinaoliveira5850]

I love the subtly in this video, even though you raise some great points about choosing appliances. For example, the point about trying to use all the same brand of appliance. I think sometimes we want to shop around for a good deal on each individual one, but if you're buying a package from one brand, it can be more cohesive in design and usability.

[@Godownsize]

We've been using induction for 10 years and it's so fast and so much easier to controle the low heat for simmering than with gas:)

[@Jacline685]

Came across your channel today and I love it! There are not that many women on KZbin who talk about their real life career and I love the way you present your content. It is really fun to watch and also informative and inspiring! Both the entrepreneur videos as well as those about interior design. (Besides, you're also a fashion inspiration - it's just a pleasure to see your outfits) Greetings from Germany!

[@twaltdwan9153]

I'm a true libra..... seeing you have a vision and having the tools to make decisions and execute is amazing to me... i am decisive at times and its just the best thing to see choices being made.....

[@graysonbateman7280]

How do you not have more viewers/subscribers?! Love your channel!

[@KarinBohn]

Grayson Bateman Awe! You're so sweet. Thanks so much for the comment! I'm so happy to hear that you like my content. Thank you! 🙏🏼❤️

[@quakemaster789]

The Samsung induction cook top is amazing!!!! I really loved this episode!!! :) Love your channel ^-^

[@helenaweinmeister6111]

Love love love this series! Makes me want to change every decision I‘ve made for my apartment and do it all over again.

[@bmarygirl]

I’m glad I found your channel. I’m going to be remodeling my home. I want to be able to “shelter in place”. I’m putting my washer and dryer in my bathroom though. You were a great help with the appliances decision. Definitely induction!

[@caliv0608]

Perfect timing with this video! I literally just got home from an appliance research trip. There is so much to choose from these days and it can be overwhelming. I like the idea of having someone put some ideas together for you.

[@nnejdee]

Awww man I miss our Fisher Paykel fridge from our last house. It's a gorgeous appliance, you'll love it!!

[@keegan2207]

So glad I found this channel, I'm considering interior design for my career :)

[@oceanbabii]

Super excited to see the future episodes to come!! Love how in depth you go with your interior design business. I'm currently in school for interior design and hope to be an aspiring designer like you

[@yasminleon6990]

Can you create a course ( if you do please link it to me ) about the entire interior design process? I would so buy it !

[@JammyandJane]

This was great, very informative. Loved the look of the integrated appliances x

[@KarinBohn]

Philista Awesome! Happy to hear that you liked this video!!

[@Azzy09]

LOVE your channel. Love how you put your content out!! Right on Chris for saying no go with being on camera...the internet can be VERY mean.....business content ok, personal life no way...maybe later on.

[@KarinBohn]

azzy tude Yes! I totally agree!! Thanks so much for your comment and for watching my channel. I'm so happy to hear that you're loving the content! ❤️

Thanks so much for watching! ❤️

[@carolinebesinger8611]

Omg so helpful, hope you know how very much ,love love. Love, ya!...

[@kevIn-h1h1]

Thank you for this series, really enjoying it so far. However, when it comes to induction cook tops I would be a bit careful. Don't know if you are aware of it but it is said that induction produces sounds that - because of their high frequencies - can't be heard by humans but animals. It is likely that dogs and cats react massively when you turn your induction on. Wondering that your retail guy didn't mention it, at least it is not in the footage. Wanted to share this hint with you, even though you published this video about 2/3 years ago. It is a great series nonetheless and really helpful to have such an authentic and informative look behind the scenes. Thank you again. You go, girl!

[@jormacarambon5235]

Just subscribed to your channel.I find your videos very informative especially if one is planning to build their house.

[@MsBridgesSocial]

Hi there! I just found your channel and I'm getting so much out of them! I've designed a refrigerator cabinet combo for a regular depth frig that looks like a counter depth frig. What I did was add a shelf insert behind the frig for wine/cookbooks/nicknacks and one pullout cabinet perpendicular and behind the pantry cabinet for brooms and cleaning supplies. There's still a gap in the back of about 10 inches but it's hidden. What do you think of that idea? I also found an old video from the 50s on kitchen design back when storage and space saving ideas were the rage because of space travel. It was really interesting that they designed around zones then before someone came up with the triangle. Now we're back to zoning kitchens again. Full circle!

[@k3rryrose]

Just found your channel and I love it!!!!!!

[@KarinBohn]

Yay! I'm so happy that you found my channel... thanks for watching!! xK

[@andreeadinca6758]

Catching up on Bohnafide:) loving this series Karin!

[@Blahblahbooo]

Found your channel today & love this series

[@joieparris7812]

Another great video. Thanks for all the information.

[@teviolafrica]

Love your outfit the emerald is on point

[@faizarehman1417]

So much information but so worth it. From a design student.

[@mleolahi80]

Chris you don't like the camera?!! ☺️ Great episode as usual guys 👏🏼 Love it!!

[@livh2708]

I’m sure the house will turn out so beautiful but how could it sell for 1 mil? Is everything more expensive in Canada or is it location?

[@msl5131]

Wow, I was like..gasssss. Then I watched that induction boil water in what felt like 5 seconds! Hmmmm.🤔😊

[@MsBridgesSocial]

On stovetops:. I prefer gas over induction or electric for most cooking. (I hate it when the pan slides all over the place when you're trying to stir. Grrr!) But an induction wouldn't be so bad for an island in that when you have kids around helping you cook, the induction is safer even though I prefer an island with no sink or stove. On ovens:. I get this flash thought in my mind of a little toddler waddling up to a hot stove when mom is pulling out a casserole and planting their baby paws right on the hot door. Takes my breath away every time! I like counter height wall ovens. What do your clients think about placement of appliances?

[@chrissydesigns3940]

New subbbbiiiieee... you’re inspiring ❤️

[@jennamoss1367]

I would love to become an interior designer! Although some of my subject choices aren't the right subjects that I need to have for the qualifications. I'm halfway through my 4th year in high school ( I live in Scotland so the education system will be different) and I'm not sure which subjects I would need to pick up exactly, any advice? xx

[@joyfulhand]

i really inspired by you mam and really appreciate yur efforts and god bless yu mam

[@MsBridgesSocial]

Last question:. How do you balance your own design preferences with your clients preferences? Did you find that you might get your own ideas in the way of designing for your client and helping them realize their vision?

[@kariehern]

So, I am confused...she said she is reaching 1,000 subscribers but I only see 50k, which to be honest, it doesn't take away from the fact that the videos are great. I was just wondering. Love the videos though. Very very much helpful.

[@misstea-uu3nj]

Karina Divin, the video was put up on KZbin on September 11 2017. At that time she had 1k subs! Now she has 52K

[@seinteriors]

This is so exciting I love renovations especially if there you're​ own home. So excited to see other videos. I've also got a KZbin channel about Interior design would love if you checked it out :)

[@suesheification]

Tip look at the person not the camera

[@Autism_Forever]

Induction cooking is not the healthiest. I do hope it is NOT the future of cooking. It is like having a microwave for stove.

[@TomCook1993]

his polo shirt was too tight

[@ellamarie4942]

Good videos but STOP interrupting people
