Might Not HAVE ENOUGH | Airbnb in Carlisle PA | Reselling

[@KarisParadiseVintage]

Instead of a slim table behind the sofa in the Airbnb, consider a board mounted on brackets as a wall shelf. It can be painted the color of the trim and look like an extension of the window, and you won't have to worry about table legs butting into the heater. And it will serve the same purpose to keep the sofa off of the heater. It's so fun watching the Airbnb take shape!

[@CindyJohnston-l7b]

On those shutters…You only open the slats not the whole section. No one opens the sections because of furniture placement…

[@mamaG4]

She has said multiple times it’s still too dark even with the slats open. If someone wants more light they have to open them then furniture placement becomes an issue.

[@rikkemeek1506]

To be honest no one renting an Airb&b is going to bother with opening the shutters. They are going to be out doing thing during the day anyway. If they think it's to dark they will turn on the lights🤷‍♀️

[@laniminch7231]

I came to say the same thing. I would think they’d open adjust them for light but not open them. The other option because it’s causing so much stress with furniture is to just take them off and put up curtains. It’s an airbnb people do not take care of things like their own. Keep them for resale or if ever want. But if remove less stress

[@FunFindsOutpost]

Andrew’s knowledge is always so fascinating. I love these videos that some the real side of reselling, not just the shopping all the time.

[@KristieGallion]

Great to see your dad. Your parents are so great. I loved visiting the old shop. You can pick and choose with fresh eyes.

[@susanfraser6371]

I think the gap between the bathroom vanity and the toilet is there for accessibility reasons. If a person uses a walker or needs assistance, that space is needed. I would also suggest that before you reposition the washer dryer, you look at what the impact might be on accessibility in the bathroom. We followers are well-intentioned (and I include myself in that😊), but I think it would be a good idea to consult with a company that installs accessibility features in washrooms, and get some guidance from them based on their expertise. It may save you both money and headaches in the long run.

[@susanstancliff2937]

You’re a busy lady! Your ideas are good! Takes a lot of planning but it will be worth it when you’re all finished!

[@greyhairedgrammie]

Yes, if the place will be advertised as handicap accessible, there are codes that will need to be met. Door width, door handles, turn radius in the bathroom, grab bars, etc. will all be required to meet code.

[@janrossetti3571]

Totally agree with your preferred option 3 in the B&B house, turn sofa and use long low table behind. 😊

[@5.56Media]

Don't stress yourself over the Airbnb property. You'll figure things out as you go along. No biggie.

[@janmcguire5268]

I think a console table behind the sofa is a brilliant idea!

[@janrossetti3571]

Your lovely Dad looks so well, so nice to see him.

[@marggyreppeto-pi6re]

Always enjoy seeing your Dad. Table behind the couch, great idea

[@diannekerzee5907]

So sweet that he didn’t see the boob in the boob light.

[@janrossetti3571]

Me too!

[@michaelmichael4435]

A narrow table is your best bet. It will also keep people from opening and closing the shutters as they are not made to be moved regularly. Especially since that is at least $2,500.00 worth of blinds if not more.

[@imawehole]

I'd leave the couch there where it is and put a very low end table or something to keep it spaced from the wall. I'd also move the couch a foot or two closer to the entertainment center. Then put a catch all cabinet behind the sofa. It's nice to have a place to be an access point close to the front doorto drop your keys, purse, hat, etc. Just a thought

[@dottiehelton2975]

To me the answer to your problem would be switch the couch, where your newly table that your dad put together put it on the wall where the black shaded lamp is and the TV or whatever can go on that wall that way you don’t have to deal with the heater

[@dottiehelton2975]

Also, that way when you walk in the door, the living room is not cut off by the couch

[@dottiehelton2975]

That way you’ll have an open room in the living room won’t be cut off by the couch and the room will seem bigger

[@brikhouse22]

Just remember if you make the bathroom accessable i believe that also includes widening the door.

[@janrossetti3571]

That was fun picking beautiful pieces from the old shop and boy! Do you have some gorgeous pieces. Can’t wait for the gallery sale and the Italian sale. 🎉🎉

[@juliechapman-xu4if]

ADA requirements 5' around handicapped stool. Consider researching ADA websight.

[@paulaspeier3493]

I'd like to take this time to wish you and your family the best Thanksgiving ever! I don't believe how tenacious you are once a dream comes into view! I'm defeated before i begin. Be proud of yourself, you're fabulous. Cheers!

[@HappyCrazyLady]

If you’re keeping the tile outside of the shower, make sure it goes completely behind the vanity for when you move it. Love that entertainment center!❤

[@thumpaharley7564]

Great to see Drew with you and keep tub for kiddos!

[@mamaG4]

Tub vs. Shower. There are a lot more solutions for a family with small children that want to bathe them than there are for people that prefer walk in showers. I feel very unsafe stepping over into a bathtub to take a shower. I have a wonky ankle that makes that process a bit sketchy especially if the tub tends to be slippery. For lots of people for lots of reasons a walk in shower is much safer. That’s my two cents worth. 😊

[@marktitus8516]

Couch would look better on wall facing the windows or at an angle like a V kinda like which uses open conversation pit

[@debbiezimmerman7122]

Option 3 is the great idea, it will look nice and can be used behind the couch even it you decide to move some where else in the room

[@debjaworski7211]

That pink glass is vintage Target. I've got clear ones in my cupboard. I've got the box downstairs with more glasses still in it. I haven't broken many. The box says Target and the pattern is Melody.

[@RescueJunkie815]

Hi Jocelyn. Your lamp at the AirBNB , the lights are supposed to point toward the floor rather than the ceiling. Those lamps were popular in the 90’s. They went great behind the corner piece of sectionals. They were usually paired with some great glass tables with the enormous table lamps. Ahhh, those were the days!

[@janearuin6834]

The gap between toilet and sink probably is for disabled people access with walker etc.

[@ang8904]

Those shutters aren’t meant to be opened. Just use the leavers. They’ll give your renters privacy. It’s creepy to have people on the street looking in at you. A while back I had a house with those, one of the slats broke, it was very expensive to have it fixed. It’s not your house to live in so leave it as is. A sofa table for the window is best.

[@kimmorgano8778]

I have plantation shutters. I never open the panels, just the slats. I love them. Don't take them out. They look very nice and are expensive.

[@lilred9483]

My Mom is disabled and she had her tub taken out and replaced with a shower. She had a bench seat put in so she can sit while she takes her shower. Love your Dads shirt!

[@starrshamek5449]

One of my daughters when she was younger instead of saying south for the winter, she would say south of the winter. Every time I hear people saying south for the winter, I always think of her when she said that.

[@dawnmeegan430]

I agree with the shower. I would never take a bath at a motel or ar bnb.❤

[@karenwilson6506]

Aesthetically, I'd go with option 3, the narrow table behind the couch. Those hairpin legs look like they could tear up the back of the couch, especially if kids are bouncing around on it. The table provides the buffer you need between the couch and wall and whatever you decide to do about those shutters, allows air circulation, plus provides a space to recharge a phone, put a small lamp on, or whatever else. Just my opinion. I don't know much about interior design or what works for a B&B as opposed to a longer-term residential scenario. ❤😊 I'm sure you'll do great whatever you decide!

[@carlid8824]

We ordered 2 of those narrow sofa tables off of Amazon for our home. We really liked the concept. As a heads up, the ones we ordered were taller than our sofa back and just didn’t look good. You may run into this issue since your sofa looks lower profile. The window also looks to be set lower. They are also pretty flimsy so if you get more than one, you may want to zip tie them together so they don’t separate or move as much!

[@lisamolleur4832]

Im pretty sure that awesome brass floor lamps lights are suppose to face downward. I love it!

[@deenichols2055]

Put the couch where the tv stand is and put the tv on the small wall across from the windows.

[@GrannysGarage333]

To make the shower accessible just make sure they can roll in a shower chair and safety rails and you would be good to go! The ramp is great but if they can’t easily access a bathroom then it really isn’t necessary to keep the ramp. Also don’t forget the safety rails by the toilet… I’m sure your dad could install the rails and to buy the rails is only a few hundred dollars. It’s looking great! Excited to see the end result!!

[@cathleenplantholt4958]

White dog antiques will be in your familys neighborhood in syracuse ny for an antique show this weekend . Its a small show but really nice glass and other treasures. Enjoy the carlisle show some day i hope to visit it to exhibit or shop

[@janemillar-ck3nc]

Keep calm and carry on, it’s looking good, stick to your guns, things work out just right without added stress ❤

[@julsatmidnight]

I'm fighting cancer in a wheelchair. Shower with bench seat is most accessible. Also safety bars are super important. I need that space around the toilet as well.

[@auntie_wombat]

I have to agree... the more accessible you make your AirBnB to people who are differently abled the more you will keep it rented out. It's a great idea to install the safety bars and to have a standing shower with bench seat. Nobody will care about having a bathtub in a rental like that.

[@hollydesenberg7368]

That distance between sink n toilet is for a wheelchair chair and assisted transfer to the toilet

[@ileneglenn845]

Makes absolute sense since the home has a wheelchair accessible ramp.

[@almostoily7541]

Any time I've been in an air BNB I'm not staying there all day to open the shutters. Plus, those usually open the slats not the whole thing. We're out sight seeing or working, etc. I've never been in a rental that had a different theme in each room. It's always one throughout and the different properties are named like Retro house, C& W house ( it was country and western), the butterfly house ( oddly enough I didn't see any butterflies lol) I'd think about child proofing. Not everyone has children who mind. Especially when parents stay on their phone and don't pay attention to them. Also, there is always one room with twin beds in every one I've stayed in. Except for one and it had a daybed with a trundle. I'm sure there's a reason for that since they all have done it. Perhaps for the kids who don't want to sleep with siblings. Or for groups like a ladies retreat that also don't want to share a bed. Just some things I've noticed. Also, I've been in one where the stack washer and dryer was in the kitchen even. It's a rental, not where anyone lives so people understand things like that.

[@ms.krueger2660]

That vase would make a great lamp. ⭐️ Kids will swing on those shutters. Also need a tub for kids. Kids would get hurt on the hair pin legs. They would be broken off the wall.

[@mamaG4]

The hair pin legs would be behind the couch. Kids shouldn’t be able to get to them. All kids aren’t tear heads either.

[@lauradotson355]

Your Dad is right! Why open it. i know you feel it is dark in there. Ambient and task lighting can help tremendousy! Also a thought - your clients will be there in the evening more than in the daylight most likely! Draperies for privact from the street for that size window will be expensive! You can always try it the way it is and then re-select if ou have negagctive feedback! Love the idea of redirecting the washer /dryer! I am a prfessionally trained interior designer, and i know having lots of opinions is overwhelming! you are doing great things!

[@lauradotson355]

Jocelyn, I will be happy to seak with you about this and offer professional advice, so that you can do what you want, and how to that. Please feel free to message me! i am sincere in my offering! I have been trained here in the US and in England! i woulld ove to help you!

[@good_thrifts]

:) @16:30 in your mystery paperweight box there is a white one at the front with millefiori that appears to be a Strathearn made in Scotland.

[@p.b.1219]

Get a table. Hair pin legs in the wall will tear and puncture the back of the couch.

[@mamaG4]

That was my thought too.

[@lisabaker8034]

Jocelyn 😊why dont you get a contracter to spray paint the tiles with white tile paint for now to even up the colour & this will freshen everything up if the bath is metal get that re sprayed aswell & update the fixtures & put your personal touch on things lovely towels , & abit of decor , then down the road when your finances look better then do the restoration but please install a bath back in 😊 nothing like a good old soak when your chilliing out after traveling & for children also 😊 Lisa .NewZealand

[@elizabethhudsoln8419]

IF HANDICAPPED, REMEMBER, if you advertise as handicap it must have a 3 foot for and a raised toulet. You must put bars next to toilet and one in shower or someone can cause you trouble down the road

[@thriftmine1082]

I vote "option 3" also! Look fir the style if skinny table that has the electric receptacle and/or USB charger built in. Also: for $$$-saving I suggest you remove the stackables from the bathroom all together OR build a faux wall with louvered doors right there in the bathroom to shield it from view. You're doing GREAT Jocelyn!!! Love your ideas & inspiration ❤

[@tbrooks5015]

5:05 Imperial Plum by Libbey I think 6:05 Arnolfo Di Cambio, yep Italian

[@lauravance2467]

I think a shower would be perfect for accessibility! And if you wanted to save money, there are many paints available for tiles, giving you a fresh look without breaking the bank 😊

[@kellyburrow9259]

Today I watch a show on The Niche Lady channel where she went to an estate sale and the home belong to an artist. The whole house was done Mid Century Modern. There were lamps in this house that when I saw them I thought of you. You should view that video I think you would enjoy all the things in the home. I enjoyed your video today.

[@CrazyLampLady]

I don’t watch her, but thank you for thinking of me.

[@kellymc67]

I’ve seen where people have updated their 50s style with colorful wallpaper, it adds a little excitement (I know, excitement in the bathroom?) and it detracts a little from the dateted style of it. I am so excited for you.

[@KayPagel]

Those shutters aren't meant to be opened. They are to used in place of curtains.

[@Mystlyn26]

Hi Jocelyn, California here. Just wondering if you ever sit back and laugh at all the bossy boots who watch your videos? They could just start their own channel and do everything their own way, lol. I love watching you.🩷🦔🩷

[@bluestar2195]

I had a micro mosaic piece with a setting just like that it was gold.

[@jayleigh_bee]

That table is fire! It has outlets along the top which is awesome!

[@TriciaKey-cy1uo]

Maybe you could start having mystery trains to move along the unknown items and others you haven't had time to research. Enjoy!

[@angelhandlon9561]

The table behind the couch would be good and then a few plants on it and ill take the paper 😁 i just love all your videos i look forward to your videos every night thank you

[@LindaM-wt7wk]

Agree with you, console table behind sofa is my vote ;)

[@Cindy-cq8zr]

Awe good to see Andrew. He is so knowledgeable and I love his Chigg’s Army shirt. I follow him also! Good to see your Dad!

[@dharvey67]

Why not put the couch on the other wall facing the window

[@redhatnancy4694]

Why do you still have so many items at the old shop? Are you still planning on opening a store there?

[@rikkemeek1506]

That's the plan🙂 It's not all her stuff in the old shop.

[@anneinstx1969]

I like the table option as long as it also allows the shutters to still open.

[@kimberlygorcey4290]

Joce, have a mystery paperweight sale. All the paperweight that are a mystery to your. Throw it in there.

[@ginawilson7807]

I just bought that very same narrow table and it has charging station in it. We love it.

[@ginawilson7807]

I got ours from Amazon but it looks the same.

[@sandivonins3207]

I think option three - the slim table behind the sofa. You will be able to place a lamp on it to provide additional lighting. 😊

[@Workingndmom]

I like the table behind the couch option!!

[@stevedavis9742]

You have a great sense of style. What a fun project! Liz

[@VintageStuffULove]

If that mosaic pendant swivels it might be a widows piece. The Italian widows wore a photo in a frame on their neck so would make sense it was 2 sided so they could turn it if they wanted to.

[@shanlynwebb]

[@lesliemonahan2080]

There’s a washer and dryer downstairs. You can eliminate the ones upstairs

[@christinacordero4624]

I like the table behind sofa idea. 😊Good luck with everything, you'll get there.

[@loripeeters7152]

You can also add a thin sofa table to put behind the couch.

[@GaudyGammy]

Throw the washer and dryer in the garage and be done with it.

[@AnneSmith-mu2ph]

Yes I agree crazy in the bathroom!iv never seen one in the bathroom

[@AnneLilley]

@@AnneSmith-mu2ph It was probably put there because there was easy access to hook it to the plumbing. The original owners probably didn't want to run pipes. Also, they had a ramp in the garage so they must have had mobility issues, and the laundry would be better in the bathroom. If the garage is not heated it might not be a good idea to run plumbing out there.

[@michelekelley9001]

The garage may not be heated.

[@ileneglenn845]

All states cannot have garage washers sine the weather is too cold to have it out there…pipes freeze.

[@susandorward2293]

Wow, you have so much inventory!

[@vintagetooth8834]

Just adjust the louvers to let in light.

[@angelarobertson9521]

Goodwill has shower chairs all of the time if you want to grab one. Being disabled I would be so happy if I went to a Airbnb that had a shower chair.

[@janewild9150]

Option 3 for the sofa, tub/shower surrounds are not too spendy and it would cover that old tile

[@anapagan1449]

That’s the best thing you can do get the table and put it against the couch and the window and it’s a great idea

[@Libby488]

Heat rises…that baseboard heater is meant to ‘wash’ the windows with warm air, that’s why heaters are below windows in rooms. With a couch in front and a table above the heater, where do you think the heat will go? You know people are going to jack that heat up cause they think they’re not paying for it. Talk to someone on the fire dept about putting furniture near baseboard heaters. You won’t do it after talking to them. My husband is a 👨‍🚒.

[@robinheath4955]

Keep the shutters!

[@robinheath4955]

Nice to see the old shop!

[@foreverdawn2974]

Anyone handicapped also needs another way out in the event of a fire. If it's in the garage, that ramp won't do them any good. There should be 2 emergency exit points.

[@JamieBeeReseller]

[@deborahpatrick8278]

Option 3 is the way to go

[@shellymorgan9044]

I like the narrow table idea.

[@Black_Tulip_77]

I’m a sucker for the old shop. I would play in there for days. ❤

[@mizelle4096]

I personally do not like my back or back of my head to a window, I prefer to see out of it. but if you're putting it there, definitely need a table or those legs behind the couch. trust it will be pushed against the heater.

[@heatherhoffman9719]

Just get rid of the shutters on the front window. If you want retro there are vertical blinds you can get or just curtains!

[@cosmicgoatlady6957]

Walking showers with a built in bench are great.
