    Christine..I had to laugh at you trying on PJ in costco..LOL Love seeing your vlogs..they are so interesting..Can't wait to see how your broken mirror project came out..you know it's bad luck to break a mirror..LOL I guess if you do it intentionally it's OK..Hope we get a tour after you are finished!! xoxo Loretta

    It's so fun to watch your design evolutions. From pops of teal to stark white to creams and now to grays. I really love watching the changes in what your spirit needs to be surrounded by. It's so much fun.

    A shelving idea I always keep in mind for bathrooms (especially in a rental) are those units you can buy that shape around the toilet stool. They usually have at least 2 shelves (maybe 3 or a cabinet) and they are spring loaded like a shower curtain rod and you position them from floor to ceiling. Now if the area where you want shelves isn't where your stool is you could probably add a towel rack for additional storage. The best thing about these units... no holes in the wall!
    Best of luck. I really like your videos!

      Thanks Jenny! Awhile back you asked about my dental work in Thailand, I couldn't find your comment again to reply directly but there are two dental offices I would highly recommend in Thailand, #1 Grace Dental, they have multiple locations. #2. Dental 4 U, located in Chang Mai. I had my dental work done at Dental 4 U, but also went to Grace Dental a couple of times, for a braces assessment and consultation. Both places were excellent. I can share more about the whole experience in my upcoming Invisalign vlog. :)

    Christine I honestly couldn't be happier to have found your channel. I've been watching you for over a year now and I can tell you that you are my favorite youtuber. You and Michael are such a breath of fresh air in youtube community. You make it so clear that being a youtuber isn't all about glitz and glam and just the outrageous living. There is so much genuine happiness between the two of you, in your humble but beautiful home and it's wonderful to watch. I'm buying my first house and moving hopefully within the next month, and you've inspired me so much. Keep up the good work!! And thank you for all the effort and love you put into your videos.

  • @chengtianshan
    @chengtianshan 10 лет назад

    I can keep watching your videos for hours!!! You inspired me of so many things,those DIYs, smart and refreshing organizations, I even started a declutter life cuz I found what you said in your videos was totally right and that's a lifestyle I really enjoy. I used to buy different colors of a same top just because I can't decide which one then I buy them all and so it was with skincare and makeup product, now I can get over it and have a simple and organized life.

    Christine this was an amazing vlog. I love this style of filming and editing, where we just see snippets of your daily life.... the trying on PJs section was just so cute! If I ever get castaway on a desert island, I want to be with you and Michael. You both have the knack of seeing the potential in everything. Within a week, instead of needing rescue, you'd have a business up and running, with people queuing to visiting your desert island retreat! : ) You're both amazing!! xx

    Christine if you use Command Brand Damage free hanging works , you can get any picture hanging strips from small to large and all in different weight size. And when you want to change it lift the mirror off and just pull the strips off. It dosent damage any walls.

    Hi Christine -- so nice to see you here. I saw those candles with the remote here in Jersey and I couldn't believe the price was so great!!! $10!!! Yeah! That's what I thought..............until I bought them and then happened to go back for something else 3 days later and then...........then.........I saw that I read the wrong sign and I actually paid $24.99!! That's what I get for not checking my receipt! But, I have to say -- they are still a bargain!! LOL I will keep them! Hope to see you again before the end of the year!!!

    Lovely bedroom décor, I wish I knew how to keep spiders away, I get those also and on my front porch. I read peppermint helps. I hate them, they make my front look like the Adams Family house! The shelves you mentioned wanting I saw on TV , I thought of buying myself, they hook on a wall corner without any holes. I can't remember the name but it was on of those as seen on TV ads. I'm sure it's listed somewhere on the web, love the rainbow!

  • @Rchaejin
    @Rchaejin 10 лет назад

    Loved the whole video!! the spiders will get in your house and spread everywhere though, if you don't evict them. I'd prefer small bugs over big spiders because their webs are annoying too. Can't wait for the next part!

    • @Midlife_Manical_Mayhem
      @Midlife_Manical_Mayhem 10 лет назад +2

      hi stephanie... i hope you don't mind my responding. i refinish furniture. laminate is a pain in the behind to paint and rarely worth the effort. but if you want to do it, sand it first to give it some "tooth" then prime with zinzer 1-2-3 and make sure you follow directions on how long to let it cure before painting. if you don't wait, the primer won't adhere and it will all chip and scrape off.
