    The headboard was really impressive. I loved how you thought of using cheap white fabric for a liner, so the yellow didn't show through. The closet looks amazing. The outdoor space really makes the area. And I love what you've done for your cat. I love your videos. I never want them to end.

    That felt like three videos worth of yumminess. When you brought out that headboard I thought to myself "What on earth has gotten into Benita?" and almost exactly then you said "quesionable choice of fabric". Whew. I thought we'd lost you for a second there!

    First, I miss my cats. If you want to find a missing cat, make the bed. They will appear as if by magic. You talk to your fur baby…I love that!
    Second, I have always thought of myself as inventive in finding ways to get things done even though I live alone. Using shims under the door was brilliant. Making your headboard was inspired. And your balcony is very inviting.
    The Cincinnati Zoo also uses a thin metal fencing material in black to cage small creatures (birds). The signage noted that photographing the inhabitants through this material works well to get distant shots without the fencing being noticeable.

So lovely! It earns to be treated well and now I know exactly what it wants me to do. It wants whitewashed floors and white clay plaster walls and it wants only the bare necessities.

    I love that catio! I’d be out there with my coffee every morning. Thanks for the view into how you’re organizing your new place-it gives me lots of inspiration to work on my own.

    Benita, your attention to detail is what I enjoy about your home improvement videos. The gaps under the baseboards, the difference in paint colours, the catio netting etc. The end results are worth the wait. I love the new deck chairs & I can't wait to see the plants grow more & fill out the balcony.

    • @BenitaLarsson

      It’s finally getting warmer so I’m also looking forward to things filling in more!

    Hello Benita! I am so late to watching this video! I really enjoyed these makeovers - especially your CATIO! Hostas have to be my favorite - they grow so well in my shady areas, but what I love the most is all of the beautiful varieties of that plant! I have many Hostas in my garden mixed with different greenery - and a few blooming flowers for color. Such a great idea for your head board - love how you repurpose different items into beautiful useful pieces. As always, I enjoyed watching this very calming video - enjoy your week! 🪴🌺🪴
