BEST 10 Renter-Friendly LUXE Bathroom Upgrades | Stuff Nobody told you!

[@Waynaworld]

Hey Friends! What is your favorite bathroom upgrade?

[@jessdorve]

WaynaWorld I love the shelf. Where did you purchase it? I found your channel last night. I literally sat and watched all the videos. Thank you Wayna !

[@missladygray]

Honestly all of it. The book shelf and the wood grain on the cabinet really did it for me though. Beautiful updates.

[@michellegomez5429]

You did the thang thang. Beautiful. I'm finishing up my spa bathroom. Live in a rental and the new owners renovated part of the apt and they gave us a vanity sink with doors. So happy. This is awesome..

[@zenobiabrown]

I have something that will help with caulking. Find LOCTITE renew caulk. It’s in a tube and the applicator makes caulk a straight line for you. I CAULKED EVERYTHING even stuff that didn’t need it because of how perfect those lines were. Lowe’s just had it on clearance.

[@mitzgz]

I used to have the same mold problem. Just keep your bathroom open after taking a shower. I don't have mold problems anymore.

[@secretalias2264]

Just a tip for people who keep cleaning bathroom mold but it justs comes back - once you're done cleaning it all with your cleaner of choice, let the bathroom dry and then put on some eye protection and a mask, spray every single surface of that bathroom with vinegar, (use a water mister for ironing or similar). Just cheap white vinegar works fine. Get inside all the drawers and into all the little corners and grooves around the taps etc. This kills stray spores and also causes mold to have trouble repopulating the same surfaces in the future. At first you might have to do it every 2 or 3 months but after a while the mold just doesn't come back at all.

[@greyscalesx]

Yeah but the root of the problem is lack of ventilation. If you're renting, never take a space with a windowless bathroom that doesn't have a ventilation grid

[@doctork1708]

Put on eye protection and a mask for all poisonous commercial products. Also if there’s mold behind that shower tile which is almost guaranteed, putting that grout on will create a disaster for the future. All the tile must be removed first and that’s on the landlord.

[@cherylmckinney8595]

Vinegar would have done the job and although strong smell not as toxic

[@TheRialGlamLife]

@@greyscalesx I came here to say this lol and they better get those walls inspected. Mold spores can be very very bad for your lungs and you won’t really notice the damage early enough. Stay safe and detox regularly! 🙂

Your landlord owes you a major discount on the rent.

[@Waynaworld]

Agreed!

Hello Wayna! New sub here. I was married almost 23 years then divorced. I've had to downsize to an incredibly small, dated and dreary apartment. All these things have gotten me so depressed. I've never seen your videos before and one popped into my feed. You have completely lifted my spirits and have inspired me to do what I can to create a Sanctuary for myself. I'm not very handy but you're never too old to learn, right? You are extremely resourceful, and have such an eye for aesthetcis and style. I am so so glad I found your channel. Thank you!!! 😊🙏

Your landlord should refund you at least two months rent for the work you did on the bathroom. Hats off to you!

[@Waynaworld]

Right! Lol

[@BlueTorrie]

For the sake of your health you should have your home checked for mold spores. If the wall was getting that moldy the wall behind that tile is most likely black with mold. That repair should be your landlords responsibility.

[@SirenASMR_]

It’s so sad that owners of these buildings don’t do updates with their money . Thank you for making this video

[@icantthinkofascreenname3064]

A large chunk of the rent income goes to paying the morgage and then they have to keep money set aside for maintenance/repairs, they definitely aren’t making a killing till the morgage is paid for. The profit also needs to be sufficient to make the extra hassle & risk worth it. It’s not easy street being a landlord. These are my observations having family members who own rentals, that’s probably their retirement plan so they have to play the long game. Unfortunately upgrades to the property are generally too expensive to make sense while the actual profit is quite low.

[@helmethair437]

[@valeriecurl6605]

Sad? She lives in an affordable apartment with an average bathroom and kitchen, if she wants luxury and upgrades she would have to pay a lot more in rent. She’s smart to make these low cost tweaks on her own because her rent stays the same. If her landlord made these upgrades you better believe her rent would go through the roof. Rental property is a business.

[@Hoodbusiness]

@@helmethair437 that means no matter what business you try to start...you shouldn’t because you don’t know the issues of a landlord until you become one

[@thedativecase9733]

I agree. Not everyone is in a position to become a home-buyer (they don't OWN until the mortgage is payed off) but we all want to enjoy the place we live in.

[@robbinsanford714]

Agreed but I find this channel to also be a help to landlords as well. These tips & tricks can be used to keep their rentals up to date on trends without having to spend tens of thousands of $$$ every year, as well as not having to set high security deposits on their renters which is a win win for an honest landlord.

I'm in my mid 40s now, and it's interesting to see contact paper making a comeback for decorating and updating spaces. When I was a kid in the 80s, everyone thought it was magical!

That pink-ish colored "mold" isn't really mold. It is actually a bacteria called Serratia marcescens. It is common in wet areas. One thing you can do is use 50/50 water and vinegar solution and it will work without all of the strong chemicals. Love your videos!

[@TinaGolik]

I loved all your ideas except using caulk around the contact paper on the sink. I used to have multiple rental houses and renters often do things thinking it’s not permanent but it causes damage. Sometimes it can cost a lot of money to repair. ( although what you did looks a thousand times better). People should always ask their landlord before doing that. Your bathroom truly is gorgeous, and I loved your ideas and great sense of style. 🥰

[@Safety1stKatey]

This is AMAZING! You have got to be the BEST tenant anyone could ever have. I feel like you should have been able to get your landlord to correct the issue with the grout.

[@tmcdgreen]

If that mold keeps coming back when you clean it, you should try to put a Damp Rid container in your bathroom. That should eliminate a lot of the build up -- that mold means you have excess moisture in your bathroom after showers. You can replace the fan in your bathroom (if your fan is running loud, it needs to be replaced) but Damp Rid will work better. Depending on how fast you dump it out will tell you how much moisture build up you have in your bathroom. Also, try Wet and Forget Shower spray - it's very effective and very little odor. I use it to treat my shower and clean my shower liner and curtain all in one. Overnight everything gets cleaned and then I just rinse it clean. I hope your tile repair has changed the game for you too!

[@illegallaws2268]

Thanks for the fan tip i didn't know loud fans needs to be replace. I don't turn on my light in bathroom because it's loud but now i am moving after 3 yrs. A little to late but thanks for that

Hi Wayna, Just a little PSA here... Anytime you need to protect yourself from the fumes is a product you should never use in your home. I'll be 76 yrs old on Sept 11. I've lived in Broward County, FL since 1955. I have owned homes but have also rented apartments that were in horrific condition. Mold in apartments is disgusting. Even in bathrooms without windows I do not have any mold in my home. The only cleaning product that I use, ever, is White Vinegar.... it is inexpensive, non-toxic and the vinegar smell disappears within minutes. At age 40 I was injured at work. Suddenly, any movement made my back scream so, no more on my hands and knees scrubbing the tub or shower tiles. I had to find a new way to clean..... All of these years I have had straight Vinegar in a pistol grip sprayer and I spray the shower walls and floor/tub then I use an O'Cedar broom to scrub the walls, especially the grout between the tiles and then the tub floor. (It is the same broom I use to sweep the floors and my broom is sparkling clean because it gets cleaned while scrubbing the tub!) I also heavily spray and scrub both sides of the tub mat. I have no mold on the suction cups and no mold on any grouting. Granted, if it's really bad when you move in, put some Clorox bleach in a pistol grip sprayer and specifically spray the grout between the tiles and around the tub.... and scrub them with a stiff brush to clean off the mold.... then maintain with the straight, full strength vinegar. You definitely need to have your windows open and a fan circulating fresh air while you do this bleaching process. (It might even be worth it to just regrout the tub edge - which is not difficult - and get a white paint marker to paint betwen the wall tiles) But, if you use only vinegar... cheap, white vinegar, for all of your cleaning throughout your home, your home will be mold free and no toxic chemicals in the air. Use the vinegar to clean your toilet, all around the seat, the floor and everywhere. And don't forget to clean the wall behind the toilet..... yes, it is a pain to get to but but some men have no ability to pee in the water, and certainly not even the toilet so that area gets filthy and the smell is nauseating. Don't forget that ammonia and bleach together create a literally Toxic chemical that will KILL HUMANS AND PETS when inhaled. Urine is ammonia. Even dry urine, when it is sprayed with bleach, creates the toxic gas fumes that can kill. Homemakers mistakenly mix products with ammonia and bleach (chlorine) while cleaning then simply pass out and are found dead from the fumes. It's a real problem. Vinegar neutralizes and sanitizes and deodorizers with no toxic fumes. Vinegar is a natural disinfectant. White vinegar is the cheapest. Even put vinegar in your laundry water now and then to thoroughly rinse out all of the build up of soap residue in your clothing and you'll see the colors are brighter. PS/ Get small, colorful pistol grip sprayers and fill them with your body wash, shampoo and conditioner that you have diluted by 50%. in the spray bottles. Thoroughly wet your hair and skin then spray on your product and massage it in. You will be surprised how much lather will appear and you'll save alot of product. Your hair will be nicer without being bogged down with excess product and your skin will feel nicer and cleaner too. I've been diluting product for decades and I always smell terrific and, I feel really clean. My skin is very soft too. I also use 1/2 of the amount of laundry and dish soap. It is all very concentrated..... and we use way too much of it. I have a large pistol grip sprayer in my kitchen that is almost full of vinegar ... let's say 3/4ths full of vinegar, then 1/8th Dawn detergent, then 1/8th water. I shake that up real well, screw on the top securely, then spray it onto greasy dishes and let them sit while I wash the other dishes. When I make a basin of dishwater I add vinegar to it and less detergent. Glasses and cups get washed and rinsed first = sparkling clean. Then the plates, bowls and silverware... again, sparkling clean. Lastly are the pots and pans that were sprayed with the vinegar & detergent spray and they turn out sparkling clean. The dishes get so clean and they shine beautifully! These are just safe cleaning hacks because you and other young homemakers have been raised with toxic chemicals that are advertised as being safe but they are actually deadly. Even toothpaste says, "Do not swallow and keep out of the reach of children." Why, when we are putting it in our mouth and theirs? Here you are trying to have lovely clean homes while the manufacturers are not telling you of the dangers of their cleaning products. Wayna, I'm thoroughly enjoying your channel. Your tips are exquisite, you present them beautifully and you are a classy lady, always looking well groomed, like a model! Really stellar channel, Wayna, keep up the wonderful presentations. ..... And, thank-you for brightening your viewers' days. Renting comes with many restrictions but, we want to have a lovely space where we feel comfortable and secure and surrounded by quality..... you show us how to do that, on a budget and suddenly, that nasty apartment looks like a $m!! and we feel so good coming into our sacred space..... "Thank-you" is hardly enough for what you've given to your viewers.

If I was a landlord, I would not want someone to take down these upgrades if they left because this looks soooo much better than the place did originally!!

[@hemei5599]

Worlds can’t express how much I love ❤️ the after.

[@AsheleeHaforlabe-oh2qc]

Thank you, thank you, thank you. Please keep them coming.

Using the knitted shirt as macrame wall art was by far the most unique 🔥

[@LelasMum]

This was very impressive. Nice work! Remember to run the vent Dan for at LEAST 30 minutes after your shower too. Thank you for the terrific ideas and insight.

[@the_seasons_of_summer]

This was brilliant! I’m honestly so astonished how far she brought that space! Definitely gonna give some things a try 😁

[@bish_puddin]

I used contact paper to frame my bathroom mirrors. I had some walnut wood grain leftover from doing the cabinets. Looks so good

[@nat3843]

You are awesome. Pure talent. I see flipping houses and interior designing on your own television station. May God continue to bless you.

[@MexicanMommie123]

I love everything you did. Where did you get that shelf that you moved into the bathroom? I need one of those!!

[@miriamamaning2754]

It's from Ikea hun, and it'spretty easyto put together. Hope that helps!

[@summerdays360]

Omg!!! I fell out when I saw you with that bra on 😂😂😂 because that's something that I would do 😂😂 they make great masks!! Lol I literally told somebody that I was going to dollar tree and buy some a/b cup bras and make me some masks 😂😂 Sis I love your channel even more now lol I live in Georgia near Florida so I understand the heat. Great video sis!! 💯💜☺

[@mskrisl7535]

Spraying Lysol prevents mold. That product is great! Nice added sealer around contact paper.

[@stonystone4778]

You know what else I discovered works well with cleaning mold. Drano!! I pour it in a spray bottle and spray my tub. It eats it away with no hassel, no scrubbing or anything

[@KIYAQUEN]

Gworl No you did not put some bra pads together. Hey gotta make do with what you have💀💀😂😂Anyways glad KZbin recommended you to me 💕💕

[@michellegomez5429]

That's the orignal design of a mask. A woman design but an Asian man took the credit

[@KIYAQUEN]

Michelle Gomez oh wow didn’t know that. Great to know!

[@dloveofgod8269]

Yes, great mask Idea. I have lung issues so can't use many of those products. I use bleach to get mold out more often. It's a pain but I wipe sides down after every shower, a squeegee helps.

[@maybee3317]

gworl?

[@olguiq1013]

BOOOM! OMGAWD FREAGIN BRILLIANT video...subscribed. Real life here. Live in South Florida mofos are always being crafty!!! THANK YOU Sis. Keep us updated. You need your own show!!!

[@Malcolm5252]

Another tip is to use furniture polish on your tub walls if you have the pre-fab tub/wall installation. You will only need to clean your walls once a month. The furniture polish acts like a wax and everything just beads off.

[@kathywebb6536]

Hi, I’m from Whidbey Island, Washington State. I was admiring everything you were doing in your bathroom until you pulled out the contact paper And I thought you were going to ruin everything you’ve already done. But when you were done it blew me away. It looked so modern and with the handles you put on, wow I loved it. This is the first video I have ever watched of yours. I loved it and I’m your new subscriber. I’ll be watching all of them A big 👍

[@EmmaDee]

I’ve been here TWO MINUTES and girl, I’m feeling LOW up in here. No amount of Clorox is going to help it. I’ll take any help. This is a stepping stone ( I think I can, I think I can!!)

[@pureblacbeauty]

Just wish she showed the while bathroom and not so many closeups. But beautiful

[@naceantee3289]

Yeah me too. I couldn’t really get the total look to see how it all came together.

[@shadeelanguage5110]

It’s a bit unreal😍. This inspired me so much! I know it takes time but this is definitely worth it.

[@AngelofPluto]

You built a bra mask so I had to hit subscribe! This was amazing and something I would totally do lol. Also, wish someone gave me all these tips 10 years ago when I was in my apartment. So brilliant!

[@ceciliacorson1804]

You’re a creative wonder! Thank you for sharing your savvy ways. 😊🙏🏼

[@OneVeronique]

Hey Wanya Hey, Knowing all is well. In ALL HONESTY, the apartment should hire you to REVAMP EVERY unit! Thanks for this series........💙 Have a wonderful week ahead🖤
