You can decorate the bookshelves with other things... candles, candlewarmer, small lights, wine bottles, pretty dishes, other keepsakes, souvenirs, pretty bookends, small plants or succulents, pottery, diy projects, framed photographs, pretty postcards...etc- would make for a pretty filming background

[@sisselab]

I’m not really a fan of that look tbh, but I’ll play around 💚

@@sisselab it's not really neccessary to include every last one of these items... when making this list I thought of things I saw in your videos, which would certainly be your style. Like the candle, which looks like a woman ...

I found your channel during your first ever Apartment series and now we are on season 3! I can’t believe how much you and your audience has grown since that time! You’re the one influencer who I feel like I could be great friends with through the screen. Love your content Sissel! Thank you for all the work you put into your videos!

[@sisselab]

That’s sooo sweet of you to say, I’m blushing 💚 thanks for being here with me !

[@SoBeBun]

Sissel 😃 just look up “dressing a bookcase!” 😍🥳 you’ll have so much fun finding the knick-knacks and picture frames, it goes right in line with your “designed-messy” look. Plus, I know you will just love having fun with the creativity of it 🎉🙌💚

[@sisselab]

I really gotta see if there’s a way I like online cause every time I’ve seen someone dress their bookcase I really didn’t like it. I love the look of “packed to the rim with books” tho! But maybe until I have enough I’ll do some research and see what I find ! 💚

[@sabrinaduric]

saddest moment is when the video ends 🥲 love your videos they always make me feel happiness and coziness!

[@sisselab]

Awwww💚💚💚

[@strawberrysongs8]

Idea: I would’ve not placed the bookshelves all the way in the corner but bring them more to the center of the wall, then you can push the big plant more into the corner. I think that would look really nice. 😊

[@PandaLaVeraa]

What really helped me in deciding furniture, I moved recently too, was taking screenshots of the Today's House furniture, and then a picture of the room/area I wanted to decorate and use a photo app on my phone to edit in "stickers" of the furniture. Helping me overall in deciding wether a piece vibed or not. It also helped with placement of the furniture in the rooms. I fell for the Hanok, Jeju pension, mid-century, Japandi design style.

[@sisselab]

I love that idea !! 💚

I am a super maximalist 🤣 but I LOVE fun mix decor it adds so much coziness, personality and texture. It makes my home uniquely mine. Your decor is perfectly you, beautifully done!

Chair risers/chair leg extenders or chair casters and/or a cushion can give the dining chairs a little extra height.

[@sisselab]

I’ll look into it! 💚

[@noirnabi]

it's okay you got this sissel , don't stress about it it's always until you get to a certain point of laying down the base for your design then it will be more fun again, sometimes when its overwhelming its better to take a break and approach it again with rested and fresh mind . and it's nice to give and take with other people's idea sometimes even though its hard when your used to doing it yourself and have a sense of control . hope to see you more relaxed next week , have a good week don't forget to rest , love you

The house looks beautiful Sissel! I can't wait for your filling the bookshelves series jjj. I reaaaaaally loved how you designed the living room and the dining room. I know the hype for furnishing a new home can be exhausting as it is fun, so when you feel like it's over or that you could not enjoyed it properly, think of it as a long term project. There's always new things you can add, or things you don't want anymore, or moving something to another room.

[@sisselab]

Hi, Sissel! Just wanted to say that you are doing an amazing job. I am in looove with the look of your new apartment. When you sat in the couch with the bookshelf and the plants around I genuily said “wow, that’s beautiful”. And I assume that spending a lot of time in a house that is not “finished” yet must be so exhausting (I feel like that when my room is a mess, imagine how a whole apartment might feel haha” BUT I bet that being in Denmark with your family and spending quality time in safe spaces will recover your energy and you’ll be motivated with the decor of your apartment. So, go, Sissel!! You are an as and you rock, girl!!! Hahaha love 💚

[@sisselab]

You’re so sweet, thank you for your warm words 💚

[@anahallabong]

This series is out at the perfect timing for me! It's really making me think about my home and how I can prepare the space to be more attuned to what my partner and I both like. Additionally, I've been working on decluttering and organizing, and your space is very inspiring for that, clean, and intentional appearance! Thanks, Sissel, for another great video this week.

I was soooooooo happy hearing from them! Honestly looove their bags, the quality tho!! 😭💚😍

[@bethanyaliceh9796]

I am very much a "bookcase is a bookcase" person - I have too many books to fit other things (trinkets etc) in my bookcases. If you're not anchoring your bookcases to the wall, make sure to get your heavy/hardback books on the bottom to add stability - also if you do end up adding other things to you bookcase - I'd avoid plants and candles to avoid any moisture/singeing issues with the books

[@aliah1714]

Sissel a suggestion 😅 maybe you can organize the book by their color ❤️ saw it on a french mag and it looked so nice ❤️❤️❤️

[@sisselab]

Haha I don’t like the look of that 🙊💚

[@NYntjee92]

Divide the books more and decorate the bookshelves with other things to🤩 it will look great. Maybe put the bookshelves in the middle behind the couch and the lower one in the middle then it wont look that growded? The apartment looks great! Its getting cozy❤

[@sisselab]

I’m not really a fan of the bookshelves with other things on them tbh 🙊💚 also I am making space for other decor which is why the bookcases are by the end of the wall

Try 3M command hooks to hang your artwork. They stick to almost any wall and you can get the Velcro hooks to hang artwork

[@callmewaves1160]

Sissel, when you combine Vinegar (acid) with bicarb(alkaline) you create base. It's neutral and basically it means that neither the alkaline or the acid will be active enough to clean anything. I understand you may not want to use chemicals but vinegar and bicarb together won't clean and that is why you have to keep doing it, because you are essentially putting water down the drains. Perhaps you could find some drain cleaner that is more chemical safe that would be more effective.

[@junekid2867]

Yes it doesn't clean , but tbh it's help with smell I used it when my can used to pee everywhere , I read that the bicarbonate absorb the smells when U leave it a little bit and then U add vinegar but correct me , I'm not a chemistry student.😅

[@StormiGenshin]

Hi, Sissel! Hope you’re doing well. I wanted to suggest you look into Roborock mop and vac or similar robots, it’s the best thing ever. While it doesn’t replace my normal vacuum, the floors are always clean and no back ache 🥹 I am at 4:52 and watching you vacuum reminded me of my baby robot, I love it sm haha. Take care 💞

[@sisselab]

We used to have one! But a cheap version tbh… it might be super useful actually so I’ll definitely look into it again! Thanks 💚

[@marrhatt]

You might like small strip motion sensor lights on the underside of the book shelves. Puck lights if you can find nice looking ones.

[@giorgiiae]

[@sisselab]

I looove filming them! 💚 enjoy!

[@fionasimagination]

I heard a lot of sinks in Asia have this smell problem. There is something different they do in the construction. They often don't have a water trap between apartments. So the smells rise from bottom to top of the buildings. However there are sink plugs with a special smell seals that stop any odours from entering the flat that way.

[@sisselab]

Oh I’ll look into those plugs! 💚

[@janelloyd2897]

Don't worry Sissel, you will continue to move things around for weeks till you get your perfect stops for everything. If you have lots of fruit that needs using, cut it up and freeze then you can use for smoothies.

You don't have to hang posters or other art by straps. You can use tesa powerstrips. They can hold up to 5kg per strip. So if you use 2 they can handle 10kg. And it's easly removeble. So it doesnt leave any trace. Please look them up.

[@sisselab]

Oh wow really?! I’ll look into that! 💚

[@ayandamokwana]

So beautiful. Next time try putting the small shelf in between the two tall ones. And then put a statement piece on top of it. Or a vase. 🤍

[@koshkarr]

love that you put the bookshelves behind the sofa as well ☺️ and I have dragonball figures and stuff too and it‘s a love hate relationship. i love anime/manga but i don‘t know if they fit the aesthetic haha also how do you like your office chairs? i need to buy a more back friendly one as well and I don‘t know which one to get

chemically vinegar neutralises the bicarb, the reaction is that happening. You're better off cleaning with them separately unless you're using that reaction to create force

[@ecuaschwids1627]

girl, i would have this humid smell checked out professionally immediately as it‘s likely to have been developed over a long time and therefore might not easily go away and especially bc in humidity there‘s fungus which can be toxic to breathe in 😳

[@velyvely6479]

personally i'd perhaps put the books in a order with colour / turn some around so the spine don't show / have some in piles as i felt it looked so visually busy . mix the books with the decor. as for the chairs being low you could see if you can find any nice "feet" to go on the legs to make them a little higher.

[@sisselab]

Haha I’m not really a color coordinated kind of person, but when I have more I’ll definitely turn some around so make the colors more harmonious! 💚

I have heard many places in Korea have drains that go straight down so there will always be a smell. But likely more so with older buildings.
