Settling into my new home....the BIG moving day. | Moving Diaries pt. 2

[@Darklink7884]

Kiara, I just wanted to say, from the bottom of my heart, thank you for taking the time to read and reply to every comment. ❤️ You are so genuine and caring and it shows just how much you truly love your subscribers. You have such a beautiful soul and I'm so happy and thankful to be a part of this family. ❤️ Your videos and sweet replies always make me smile.

[@KiaraMadisen]

Thank you for all the support. It does not go unnoticed and I'm so grateful. ❤️

[@karlyd7274]

Can't wait to see your finished apartment, you've always done so well making your places comfy and homey. Yay for Doug and yay for dads. ♥

[@KiaraMadisen]

I can't wait either! Thanks so much for your sweet comment!

[@djkreigline]

Djk35 I'm 💐🌹😘🥰❤ are you single how old you are

[@amandajohnson4428]

Great video! It’s good to have friends like Leah! Your dad is the best. Having a father like Doug who explains stripping screws and using a drill…PRICELESS!!! Can’t wait to see the finish apartment.

[@KiaraMadisen]

So lucky for both of them in my life! I can't wait to get the place more put together!

[@alainadacosta1222]

I’ll be moving next month and have been feeling overwhelmed with all the little things I’ll need to move and put back but this was reminder that it’s a natural process :)

[@emmalewis8908]

my mum's tip for putting on a duvet cover...turn it inside out, put both your arms in to the bottom two corners of the sheet, hold the top of the duvet, and then flip the sheet over it. Takes about 2 minutes it's an absolute game changer!

[@determined2win585]

I thank God that I discovered your channel! You are an awesome person. Your determination & strength are encouraging to me. Kudos to the people in your life that raised you! They did very well. May you keep your goldem heart & NEVER let life dim your light. 🎉🎉

[@jananeimanns]

Turn the comforter cover inside out. Then put you hands inside like wearing a glove and go all in until your at the seems. Then you can pick up you comforter with you hands inside the cover and shake both things together. This way the cover will Slide Over your hands onto the comforter. And then, you can shake it as much as you need to make it even. Maybe this helps with making your bed :). The apartment will come together very nicely

[@KiaraMadisen]

Love this thank you!

[@scarlettfriesen5224]

Loved the intro!!! It gave it like a reality show vibe!! Doug saying ‘In theory’ took me back! In 7th grade I had a teacher who always said that without realizing it! We started keeping count every class lol.

[@KiaraMadisen]

Aww yay I was feeling creative lol...haha I had a teacher say essentially so many times are started tallying every class and she bypassed 50 times....so annoying

[@alexaaguilar1246]

The apartment already looks so good! Your moving and decorating videos always get me so hyped up for any future apartments I’ll move into bc you work so hard and inspire me to do the same

[@KiaraMadisen]

Aww thank you Alexa!! You're making my day!

[@lemonade8846]

Great vid! I was laughed when you realized that there were different settings on the drill because that was me a few months ago when I moved to a new apartment. I was having such a hard time drilling through my concrete wall when I found that I was actually using the screw setting instead of the drill one. Lol. This year, a new vacuum is on top of my list! Actually, I just realized that everything on my list is for my apartment and I love it! 😅

[@KiaraMadisen]

Haha my mind was truly blown! I too asked for apartment stuff & a new vacuum is actually very exciting!

[@rikkamae4184]

Kiara the duvet cover is the highlight for this vlog, hahahahaha! Went straight here after seeing your post in Instagram! I love how Doug is so supportive and is there every step of the way!! I get so motivated watching you especially now that we are renovating our home on January! I hope there is a part 3 please!! I need more ideas!!!! ❤️

[@KiaraMadisen]

haha thank you I was like am I really gonna post this on the internet...yes yes I am 😂Thanks so much for watching & yes there are for sure more parts coming soon!

[@juffrous]

Been waiting for this vlog, I'm also moving into an apartment so busy with the packing process now and watching this is so satisfying 😅👌

[@KiaraMadisen]

Omg it's quite the process! Hope it's all going well for you so far!

[@peggy-sueclarke6407]

Happy moving video again. Wow. ♥️

[@auroragonzalez4100]

I actually toured this apartment complex earlier this year when looking for apartments in Portland and I am so happy you picked this place, you definitively look so happy! Can’t wait to see more vlogs!

[@KiaraMadisen]

So cool! It's definitely a good one!

[@evamaldonado606]

CAN'T WAIT FOR THE APARTMENT TOUR VIDEO!!! love you, Kiara!!! Your videos always make me smile🥰✌🏼

[@jodieanderson3305]

Great moving blog. Your dad is such a big help for you. You are so lucky to have such a great dad.

[@KiaraMadisen]

I truly am. So glad to had a Dad who also doubles as my best friend!

[@meganross303]

i just moved into my first apartment and videos like this are helping me get through unpacking and getting things all done. Im obsessed and im so happy your happy!!!

[@KiaraMadisen]

Omg i did the same...youtube is also keeping me company and playing in the background while I chill all alone!

[@hashmatbakshi7432]

These videos are perfect. I can't really say much else. Glad I came across a new KZbinr 👌

[@rose281396]

I hate moving because I have way too much crap, but I love how quickly you got it taken care of! I hope you enjoy your new place and make tons of new memories. ✌🏼

[@KiaraMadisen]

Thank you so much! It's always a ton of work packing everything up but I feel like I condensed it all pretty well!

[@Danivg14]

So excited for this moving series. I just bought my own Christmas present, my first Birkenstock, so excited about them. I just asked for some yummy food for Christmas

[@KiaraMadisen]

Omg so fun! I also asked for food lol the best

[@HannahElise]

I LOVE YOU OMG THE SWEATSHIRT 🥺😭

[@KiaraMadisen]

that sweatshirt got me through this move.

[@Tehman00]

Both lighting locations sounds stellar, an arc light is a vibe. Nothing on my personal list for Christmas, but I just got a huge Christmas bonus that I will be sending over to my folks. My turn to give them Christmas cheers

[@KiaraMadisen]

Aww that is so so kind of you! I'm def more excited about what I got for others this year than what I asked for 😂 Thanks so much for watching & commenting!

[@neetikashai3921]

Congratulations Kiara for hitting 300K here , love you ♥️

[@catharinawooden8942]

First of all, I just wanted to say that I love your videos, and watching you helps keep me motivated to get my life together. Secondly, I just wanted to give a helpful tip my grandma taught me for putting on duvet covers. If you sew 2 string like attachments on the innermost corners of your duvet cover and duvet, you can flip the duvet cover inside out, tie the strings together on each of the corners, and then you can just pull the cover over the duvet and not have to worry about crawling inside of it to readjust it and your duvet will also stay in place at the same time! Anyways, hope you have an amazing day!!!

[@KiaraMadisen]

Okay your grandma is so smart...my duvet cover has that my comforter doesn't so I might need to fix that 😂 Thanks so much for watching & commenting!

[@jaimebh30]

I asked for reusable paper towels, Donal Skehan's cookbook, snake plant, and a nice watch. If your dresser fits on the wall by the light switch it might be easier to open the drawers. I am excited to see your family room set up! The place looks great! I hope you and your family have a great holiday season!

[@KiaraMadisen]

I wish it fit on that wall that would be perfect! Thanks so much for watching & I LOVE your wish list! Hope you're enjoying your holiday season too!

[@prestigiousl4zy974]

I have always hated moving. I don’t know how you stay positive the whole time. Awesome :)

[@KiaraMadisen]

I don't enjoy either...very grateful for Doug and my friends who keep my spirits up!

New lamps for my new apartment. It is very dark in here without a bunch of lamps. My mom got me a couple cute lamps from Target and also threw in some holiday throw pillows because she knows I love decorating for Christmas and my boxes of decorations weren’t arriving for another couple weeks.

[@KiaraMadisen]

When mom knows best >>>> I too desperately need lighting lol

Look up the inside out duvet cover trick. (basically you lay your duvet insert on top of the inside out cover, tie the ends, and flip it back right side). It made me actually not hate washing my duvet cover and was a game changer 😂
