Traditional Japanese Apartment Makeover + Tour!

🌱 After 3 months I finally have my Tokyo Apartment Makeover!🌱 This is an older Japanese apartment building but I think it adds to the charm. In this makeover I swap out and build furniture, use contact paper on my kitchen cabinet, make organizers from Daiso, hang curtains, add my plant friends and more.

[@tamajwright7795]

Omg I'm just at the before and honestly the before is pretty good and screaming potential. That's a bomb ass appartment. Ok gonna watch the rest of the video lol.

[@leilanirika]

Hahaha yes that’s what I thought too! I miss that apartment it was so cute

[@katerina9159]

Finally an apartment makeover that's on a budget house! It looks amazing

[@luzperras728]

Those curtains and rugs made a huge difference in your bedroom! And I loved the door knots! Small things and changes for big results 💜

[@_.mxggxn._]

I think it’s a lovely apartment and you should be very proud of yourself with what you’ve done with it!

[@Jwills3]

The comforter cover reminded me of my 2015 Japanese apartment, the exact same! Love the apartment! Nice and comfy!!!

[@siiriromppanen5817]

the print of your "terrifying" curtains is the same as traditional finnish ceiling decoration called "himmeli". irl they're actually quite pretty. people make them out of straw and thread and stack them like that to make them look really complex.

[@dianneasuncion5161]

i didn't know it's ok to put nails on the walls. I thought Japan is pretty strict regarding those... I

[@leilanirika]

Ya it's not ok in most apartments in Japan! The current apartment I'm in now definitely doesn't allow nails in the wall. But for this apartment my landlord didn't mind at all so I was very lucky! And thank you!:)

[@D3C4YING]

@@anniinthewoods8287 same thing in the usa, but it really depends on the landlord

[@that0n3child45]

read this before i finished the video. why did i think literal finger nails and just go with it

[@janebaker4912]

Yes! I was thinking that too! Like, oh my god!! She just nailed a nail in the wall 😱😱😱😱😱😱

[@mimihart5097]

The demon angels HAD! TO! GO! all of the cute things hanging from the ceiling reminds me of our 20th place and the patterned origami! Miss it and you

[@leilanirika]

THEY HAD TO GO! Awww miss you so much Mimi!

[@sarahtavia2093]

I once lived in the typical old japanese apato during my uni life too. My room became crazy cold when it comes to winter since the window doesn't have latest technology to keep the room warm. I recommend to buy a real good heater to ^^

[@fayethompson4057]

I think you did good for what you had. You showed us that you showered in the kitchen but where do you use the restroom? I hope your new apartment is to your liking but if you do a makeover on it please post it🤗

[@aliciazagelbaum8347]

Looks very nice

[@triwahyuningtyas2727]

This conten just like test my listening 😌👌

[@IndaySossy]

I actually like the original design and then can make aesthetic transformation. If only i can have something like this in singapore i would love to. But here its so expensive because you cannot have your own apartment. You need to coshare or else u get the entire unit or rent a studio type but this two were very expensive for foreigner worker like me

[@fernanda328]

girl you really have this brazilian vibes i love it

[@lkkarinelana8]

I loved the video, you're so funny! Michael Scott is proud of u lol

[@leilanirika]

[@mari9931]

Lol the humour🤣💗

[@QueenWaspGo]

Hey fyi I saw that your sliding doors are sticking. You can use a wax crayon or a candle on the runners of anything wooden like drawers or sliding doors to make them slide easier.

[@vihangasavinda4074]

Wow super ❣️

[@thaiutai]

nice apartment!

[@leilanirika]

Aww thank you!!😊

Hey i love the result of your room. Btw, the large gray carpet in your bedroom, where did you bought that? I'd really want to buy that kind of carpet, but can't found it

[@leilanirika]

Great Traditional Apartment. And you so cute and beautiful. 😍

[@jaseyrae338]

You should invest in some gadgets to prevent earthquakes! There’s many options online and in stores in Japan. There’s also videos to watch to help you decide what to do get. It’s just a safety precaution.

[@user-ry2bu9lq3w]

Nice

[@leilanirika]

Thank u!
