In a shocking turn of events, I decided to redo my ofifce/ bedroom/ plantroom space, and create a small nook that will serve as a tiny planty office. This is a space-saving solution, because sometimes you just have too many plants and you struggle with space. It is also a good solution for those with smaller homes.

Nope, books are better as they don't die on you. 😂 Better yet, books and plants. Looks great and practical. But ah the joys of stripping paint. Not for the faint hearted. It looks great and very practical. My experience with raw wood is it warps so easily so perhaps waxing it is something for you to do on those cold winter nights. Great video as always.

[@lucyogutu-lumuli7253]

Great job. All your ‘buts’ and ‘howevers’ are simply because you are a perfectionist. You did a great job.👏

[@katkosmo5433]

Rudely 😂 you are a sweetheart for bringing all you Do share. Ohhh the laughter you are a blessing.!!😂😂❤ Dream Big babe ❤ all you are is all we need.❤

[@agapanas2184]

1:58 that sounds like good and productive coping mechanism, love it 👍

[@i_heart_lotus]

I wish I had a tiny bit more of your perfectionism. That was an amazing use of space and looks great with plants!

[@PlantyMessyHypsie]

Be proud. I think you’ll come to love the bits of green. It tells the story of its journey.

[@charissecarrigan2945]

Well, Miro...you did it again. Even though I know some of the DIY work was frustrating, I'm impressed. I think you did a great job. And I hope this doesn't sound rude, but I love your sense of humor and you always make me smile. I think your idea to put a magnet down below will work well. I hope you enjoy all your labor and amazing work you put into it. Thank you again for sharing your life with us!!! 💖

[@BasiePlants]

It wasn't that much DIY, it really is the paint stripper that failed me :D and perhaps trusting too much youtube videos thinking it would be super easy xD

[@Plants_on_Pointe]

Oh man, i love your videos, but this one highlighted your sense of humor. I found myself relating A LOT as well as laughing out loud many times. I spent the day today between ordering Hoyas and trying to assemble a pine bread box. Thank you for all the great content.

[@KathyGallagher01]

Well done for sticking with the preparation to set it up, it was well worth it in the end 👏👌

[@JonasBeyerHjorthLarsen]

Hello Miro. I love your videos. You are so funny and likable. I have an idea for you. You say in the video, that your table is too low for you. If you move the tabletop shelf a bit up, you can just extend the one leg you flip out. That way it will still support the weight of the table even though it’s higher than intended. You would only need some wood and screws to make the leg longer.

[@music-ye6yv]

omg I feel like u tim trenirkama it's the most balkan man we've ever seen you

[@BasiePlants]

LMAO 😂

[@katrinav.8503]

Oh my gosh- my room looks too bare! Sorry, thanks for the video, but I have to pause it- I’m going to order some Hoyas just now😂 😂😂 That green reminds my Soviet kidnegarden fence)) Good job on redoing it! Wobbly but lovely 😊

[@j.c7941]

Hi Miro 💫 Yay!!! Another video. I absolutely will always adore and appreciate your sense of humor. You never fail to make me chuckle 🤭. I think you did a fantastic job on your sanding (why does this word look weird?) and it all turned out beautifully ~ besides those wood splinters that keep getting you. How dare them 😅. I hope you have a wonderful rest of your week and a great weekend. 🙏🏻💫

[@artistonleave]

Thank you for another great video. You gave me some good ideas for redesigning my office. I love when you release new content, it always makes my day a bit brighter.

[@Amandaaaah]

Ha ha I was going to say "me too. But now I take meds and pay someone to listen to me" 😂😂

[@deenahickey75]

A job well done Miro...and it looks better natural color 😊

[@edenc9746]

I use the ivar system in my tiny planty apartment too!! I love it ❤ helps me have a functional space but also live in a jungle lol

[@robynross8524]

I haven't made it thru the full vid just yet, I am watching you while organizing my home office / hoya room. I giggled to self watching you with screwdriver, as I have multiple hand drills, but always use my screw driver or hand tool over the drill...idk why i do that.

[@planttherapy1860]

I can relate to doing projects and stressing out the entire time, but so proud when I am done

[@BasiePlants]

Same XD Would be great to do them stress-free! Also, it always seems MUCH easier before I begin.

[@planttherapy1860]

@@BasiePlants tell me about it! Lol. I like the desk! Great job...

[@Howle250]

Pretty cool set up! I got pretty limited space I have to repot on my table this is a great idea ❤

[@Plantlady-bf6cq]

OMG!! You had me laughing!!!!! So are so funny Miro!

[@emylucille240]

It turned out great Miro!! I am also trying to recover from perfectionism 😅 I'll get there one day lol

[@tinabeall22]

I really feel your pain and struggles through the tedious assembly it's the absolute worst, but holy moly that end result looks fantastic 🙌

[@BasiePlants]

It really turned out better than I thought It would :)

[@laubak50]

Micro, I think you did a great job. I wish I could put things together but no luck. I always love your videos. Th sanding job came out great!

[@flatcreek4665]

Looks great Miro! 👍👍

[@juliekennedy6658]

Good Job Miro! It looks fantastic!

[@MelissaWalker82]

This looks great Miro!

[@drsreedevirao]

Beautiful set up. Doing your work amongst the greens definitely lifts up your spirit. That shows your love for the plants. You don't want to leave your plants even for a moment. Wonderful job. Congratulations 🎉👏

[@BasiePlants]

Yes, it is very nice and relaxing to have that kind of a setup. I think a nice terrarrium would elevate it even more ;)

[@passionateplantperson]

Brilliant idea! ❤

[@suvivirtanen8242]

Impressive DIY! I like the peg board & trailing plants combination.

[@dejanaaranicki3601]

So so proud of you! It looks beautiful!

Thanks

[@bethadamik8014]

I Love your new setup!! Looks like so much more space. You did fabulous!! Sand the desk and enjoy!! 💚🌿💚

[@BasiePlants]

Yes, it definitely frees up a nice part of the space and makes it easier to access cabinets.

[@karenb136]

It looks great. I love it.

[@Allison-e6n]

Thanks for sharing your process, it definitely makes me feel better about mine; it's basically the same! I personally don't think I will ever be done rearranging my space until the day I die!

I knoooow. Rearranging is mother of all things :D

Great new set up Miro.

[@BasiePlants]

Thanks!

[@wandashaw3551]

It looks so good 👍! You did a great job ❤❤❤.

[@debbibowen]

You probably had the wrong sandpaper. When you are taking paint off, you want the "sand" to be bigger. It will take off material faster. Then you get smaller "sand" on the paper to make everything really smooth. I don't know how they rate sandpaper there - in the US you want 80 or 120 grit, then 220.

[@BasiePlants]

They are rated the same :) I actually went all the day down to a very large grit (40) and then 60, 80, 120… :) It didn’t help much as the paint seeped into the wood + it is waxy paint, so it’d wear out the sand paper fast.

[@eTommyiy]

The new set up looks great! If by any chance you still mind the green paint peeking through, you can take any part of the shelving unit into a paint store and have a paint mixed to match the most predominant wood shade. With a small detailed brush these areas would then just blend in nicely. Also, something like Danish oil would take care of the rough surface and protect your desk in the long run.

[@BasiePlants]

Thanks! That is a great idea. I might do it if I am annoyed by the green :) So far it is bothering me far less than I thought it would.

[@PlantyMary]

I would have probably stopped in the first 1 hour of paint removal and I would have resorted in painting it all black. Can't go wrong with black.

[@vanessam.903]

I love the new setup, Miro! P.S. How dare them put a road outside your window 😡

[@BasiePlants]

Thank you! I know, no one asked ME to put a road there 😂

[@deborahmcsweeney3349]

Looks beautiful! Thanks for sharing!

[@paganqueen1]

You really need to get a smaller bed. The space you could have would give more room for shelving, shelving = more plants.

[@jdub5509]

So basically you were living in a terrarium! On a larger scale 💚🌱🪴🌿🐸

[@susiesmith2543]

Why didn't you just paint over it? Lol. Oh you went natural. Yay

[@grannyplants1764]

Enjoyed watching this desk journey, it is very practical for you. Definitely install a magnet, it will bug you every time you close it…it’s nice seeing the space evolve, now looking forward to seeing you enjoying it! 🪛🔧🪚🪴👨🏻‍🔧
