let me know any ideas you have for setting up my new space :)) !!

[@Elle_-hx7wx]

It’s coming together nicely😊 can you paint your bookshelf white? lol. I think lighter colors will make the space bigger and brighter esp with no natural lighting

[@jebbymomma4256]

@@Elle_-hx7wx that’s not a bad idea

[@montystepura3689]

You are one of the most positive and optimistic people I follow. It’s such a joy to watch your videos Lucia!!

[@LuciaCordaro]

@@montystepura3689 awe that’s such a compliment ! Thanks so much :)

[@jebbymomma4256]

I just want to say I am a 46 year old empty nester and in the last couple weeks I purged all my belongings and moved out of the family home I raised my kids in and into my very first apartment for my new chapter sans kids It was overwhelming and exciting And watching your videos kept me on track with hitting the gym and packing and getting through my own transition in one peace Imagine you a young beautiful girl was my inspiration and watching you get through your move step by step moving from one place to another before getting to move in to your own space All the while working and working out and staying so positive ❤ You helped me keep perspective and thanks to your good energy I got through my move with good vibes and energy Thank you for sharing your journey I wish you only magical memories in your NYC life !

[@LuciaCordaro]

@@jebbymomma4256 awe! That is so exciting for you!! And omg thank u!! Thanks for watching that’s amazing

[@_janetta]

honestly you're high functioning AF right now. moving is so chaotic and you're handling it like a champ. Tips: unbox something every day. it doesn't have to be in any kind of order if that's not how your brain works. Doesn't even have to be a big box (especially on in office days). Might be helpful to tack a list to your fridge of everything you think you need to order as you unbox. Place your amz order by Wed of each week so you can have your things by the weekend :) Once you're all unboxed you can tackle how to arrange this and that bc you'll be able to see everything that does or does not have a home. You got this! enjoy your holiday weekend Luc! xx

[@LuciaCordaro]

Thanks so much!!! Great tips!!

[@shannonlong4138]

YAY I'm so excited you got moved in!! Don't worry yourself to death over getting everything done, It all just takes time. Maybe you could find someone to help you set up the bed. I know they offer people like that in bigger cities. But I'm so excited for you and I can't wait to see how you decorate it and see how your style has changed being single now!! I think I remember in a past video that you said you liked flea marketing and vintage stores. You can find some really neat stuff at those places to decorate with. Just take your time sweetie! 🥰🎉🥳👏🏼🫶🏼

So excited for you Lucia! This was so entertaining and I love that you wanted to clear space wash dishes open your mattress- that’s what I would do. AND you go for work outs, keep to your work schedule of course etc. Love your energy! What do you think about the mirror going on the door near your closet? Nice spot for your table and stools. Keep it coming.

Yaaaaaay, you’re home! I think Mr. WiFi formed a crush on you and needed an excuse to stay longer because THREE hours?! You have the patience of a saint. I would’ve gotten hella hangry. Can I say how much I love that mirror? Feminine apartment in full swing 🎀 I’m so excited for you! Before you know it, everything will be in its place.

Nice studio, everything is coming along nicely. I would move the bookcase elsewhere and put a nightstand instead, good luck!

[@LuciaCordaro]

thanks for the rec!

[@MeaganFrances303]

The bookshelf makes it feel really stuffed over there. A nightstand would make it look less bulky

[@LuciaCordaro]

@@MeaganFrances303 fair fair

[@TonyaS]

I think the table adds a nice separation from the living space. The bookshelf I think is too big for the space. I think you have to think minimalistic and build up. So, consider adding a lot of floating shelves to the space and get rid of or store anything you don't need.

[@LuciaCordaro]

Totally agree! Hmm fair point I’m not tied to it but do kinda like it

[@montystepura3689]

Book cases give you great vertical storage. Especially when you paint it and use some cute storage bins on the bottom shelves for you pjs and underwear.

[@venusbucci4829]

lol YES

[@israelbautista2623]

Put a sheet over the blinds to cover it until your blinds get fixed. Use push pins to hold the sheet down instead of using nails

[@LuciaCordaro]

Lol they were fixed in the vid!

[@montystepura3689]

What about putting your mirror on the wall at the foot of your bed so you have a little distance from it. Also do you have room for a small round table and chair that could go under your electrical panel so you have a flat surface for working and eating at home? Maybe you can find a console table to go over your ac unit so you have a nice surface upon which to put your TV other than in the window.

[@rebeccacartier153]

I’m pretty to sure that’s really bad feng shui to have a mirror reflecting back on the bed.

[@LuciaCordaro]

Thanks for the ideas! I don’t think there’s room for another table

Wow, some of these comments 😂 glad you're living your best life in NYC! Im moving to Chicago soon, then NYC, and i can't wait. No desire to own something in the middle of nowhere (or own at all tbh) and i dont know why people care what YOURE paying for rent with YOUR money, like you don't know it's expensive 😂. Also, it takes me forever to unpack as well. Depends on my move and what's going on. Take your time. YOU live there, not anyone else ❤ Also, i feel like your comments are always like this, i don't get it. They can literally click off?

Absolutely the same! I moved and the movers had to come back two days later regarding some furniture damage. The guy walked into my apartment and did a double take because I had unboxed everything! Pictures were hung on the wall, flowers in the vase, tv hooked up and on. It looked like I had been living there for years! 😂. My OCD would not allow me not to do that!

@@LuciaCordaro I thought the same thing.. just flip it upside down.. and then move the shelf’s on the other side (it looked like they were adjustable).

[@rebeccacartier153]

I feel like you’re doing way too much.. I would not be able to function if my apartment looked like that, let alone take a workout class.. but I’m a nester, I need everything to have a “home” before I could even fall asleep the first night. But I only own like a quarter of what it appears you have. I moved with 13 boxes and a couch and a bed. I wish that bookshelf fit in the corner across from your bed, it would be nice to showcase some items, but I bet it would block the window.
