    So excited to share with you my latest episode! It's all about my kitchen: I gave it a makeover with a lighting upgrade and lots of color by installing a temporary backsplash, and painting a wall, but without actually painting it! #bluekitchendesign #smallkitchendecoration #diybacksplash

    You are so clever, and also I feel that what differenciates this tutorial from most diy tutorials I've seen is that in some diy tutorials, they are so focussed on showing you how easy it gets done, yes, they succeded in making me believe I can do it but as I'm actually executing the job, I run into some situations that weren't adressed in the "so perfect how to" tutorial and I sometimes end up feeling not "capable", that I must have done something wrong, and I'm left puzzled with how to troubleshoot the issue, but you are not afraid to say: ex: well even if I did all I was supposed to do to remove the air bubbles in the wallpaper, there some left, so I poke them with a pin :) I guess what I mean is that your approach is just very "realistic", so just wanted to say Thumbs up! Thank you!

    Painting on contact! Omg so simple yet so genius! I don't know why I didn't think of it.. time consuming but I have lived with a really ugly kitchen before so sometimes it is worth it. Glad I found this channel today.

    Congrats on your new place, Isabelle! I recently did the big move, but in the opposite direction from LA bak to NYC. I did the NYC to LA cross-country move 10 years before that over 4 days, just as you did. Love your ideas, how easily you show them and how honest you are when you run into little problems or imperfections along the way, which is bound to happen, but few show. Thanks for your creativity and realness, I hope you enjoy your new home and the wonderful weather! :)

    Hi Isabelle, the tip with the puck-lights under the cupboards was exactly what I was looking for! I got some at HomeDepot (ILLUME Kit of 3, LED, complete with wiring and a 3-way light switch for Off/low/high) for CAD 35, and the situation in my kitchen is exactly like yours, at 4:54. I just have 2 puck above the sink and 1 under the left cupboard. It was installed literally within minutes. Thanks for your inspiration. As a DIY-girl I am of course a subscriber, love your channel.

    I've been subbed for awhile. 2017 I finally began using some of your suggestions. They worked great for me. Thank you. I came across an idea of using a tension rod in kitchen cabinets, about 2 inches from back of cabinet as a "shelf" for spice bottles. Love your helpful videos.

I'm moving into a smallish apartment and absolutely hate white walls as well so this removable wallpaper might be a great idea. :) I also like that you use a lot of ikea products. They have amazing stuff and I could seriously spend all day in that store.
