You are amazing and I am grateful for your honesty and vulnerability. Hope your healing from whatever hurt you where experiencing during this video. And I love the bathroom redo part 2!
Just thought you should know that you really pulled the bathroom together great! I Love it! I wish I was as brave as you by filming so late when I can't sleep. I hope you feel better soon! You sounded like you were going through a tough time
I just found her channel today, immediately subscribed, because I also feel the same haha. I have really enjoyed watching every single aspect of this entire process haha
this felt like a desperate late night facetime with a friend who just needed to ramble and distract themself, and i couldn’t have enjoyed it more. i adore this bathroom and i adore your personality. i commend you for your continued dedication to authenticity, whether it be over design decisions or your emotions. it hurt to see you so sad but hope you are feeling better or that you will soon! sending love
hahaha awww i love this. it was totally a late night facetime. i am feeling okay these days and did get in touch with my therapist who i havent been seeing for a few months. so getting back on track. thanks for this comment friend

It just clicked for me why I've been aggressively and also confidently painting every room of my house bright bright bright colours lately (been a neutral gurly for whaaaaay-heyyy-heyyyyyyyyy tooooo long!!! So just feels like pure rebellion against that.)...we got some RED going on, some GREEN going on, some YELLOW AND some PURPLE all happening...just really fucking shit UP in my own private paradise!!! Also, side note: I am back in therapy for the first time in 10 years. I see what's going on here now lol lllllll

Anyone who wallpapers their same space twice is not a lazy girl. I liked both versions so whatever makes you happy 😊. Also you had me at “life is too short to not have color”.
Okay, wow. There was something incredibly beautiful about you allowing us to sit in that silence with you. Like I don't quite have words for it but it felt so significant and meaningful somehow
I actually liked the first version, but I LOVE the second one! I love that you're willing to redo something when it doesn't work for you. I really adore your channel.
the fact that here in my small french living room I could feel your pain, from all the way across the world just felt soul crushing AND beautiful at the same time. Hope all the love that is outpouring of these comments can reach you, and WHAT A LOVELY BATHROOM.
I am sorry about the news, whatever it happens to be. I hope you are taking care of yourself. Wanted to let you know that you've been a huge inspiration for me, helping to find ways to organise my physical reality and close surroundings, which in turn brought me to calm and clarity (and to a bit of boldness, too)). Thank you for sharing your life with us.
People need to talk more about falling apart and pulling back together. I fell apart for 2 or 3 months straight. I had better days during it but overall, I was a wreck and I think that's part of life. Thanks for modeling that part we never seem to want to talk about...like pooping or cooking semi fails. 😂
I thought that first wallpaper didn't look bad, but this is a million times better. It's like a guy who's ok but then you find the one who really lights up your soul.
“It’s like the guy who’s ok but then you find the one who really lights up your soul.” This is the perfect comment for this video. Your friends are very lucky. ♥️
You have inside jokes with yourself (and us) and I love it. You’re your own best friend and I think we should all be more like that. Find your own fun in life folks. Kiss em petite.
"it was a pain, but it wont be the last time that i try something and it doesnt work out the way that i want it to. it happens all across the board, in all areas of life." hang in there caroline! you are so so loved by us, and *we* are here for you
I thought I really liked the old wallpaper until I saw the new wallpaper. I love it. I never would have put that gold paint with it. Nor would I now, but for you crazy girl, it works! I also love those little invisible shelves. All-in-all, great job. You do make me laugh no matter what you do. And that's wonderful.
This was actually hard to watch for me. I'm sorry for the bad news you received. I could feel your inner pain all through the video, which hurt because I like you. Hope you're doing ok. 💜
I was sitting here eating French toast and berries thinking what in the heck is wrong with people, then switched to the comments because watching her was seriously hurting my old mom heart too much. Thanks for saying just the right thing for the rest of us who just felt like giving Carolyn a huge hug, a dog to cuddle with maybe a warm beverage and blanket.

This truly was the worlds most chaotic bathroom reveal. It was also one of the most relatable, rambling real life videos I’ve ever watched. I’ll definitely be sticking around, came for the interior design content, getting so much more than that from your awesome channel. Thanks for creating!
“I love color cause we’re all gonna die.” 😂😂 never heard that argument for color before and as someone who loves neutrals I’m now compelled to consider more color. 😂 but for real, I love seeing how you use color and it makes me question my whole commitment to neutrals. Love your videos!
That color generator is genius. It includes neutrals in the palettes nicely. I work w color all day in my job in apparel, and am gonna use it for interiors-as it feels like a great hack. Maybe it’ll help you dip a toe?

@@gubayova5570 Roomba is the guy Caroiine was seeing. She sent a message telling Roomba how she feels about him. She went all in. And Roomba's respond was something like "that's so sweet of you. I too appreciate you" and Caroline believed it was a nice rejection, a "crushing news". Turns out Roomba was actually in love with Caroline and she totally misunderstood his message. They are still dating now.
THANK YOU. I was waffling between, "Oh, hon...you don't need to be vulnerable for the whole wide internet...go let yourself have a good cry." & "I WANT ALL THE DETAILS NOW, WHO DO WE HAVE TO BURY?"
Brain blocks for certain words. It’s a thing, well i made the brain block wording up. But! ! I’m telling you certain words ALWAYS AN ISSUE FOR ME. Shelf isn’t one of them, but collegian is. 🤷♀️ Same thing applies for names. Anyway………
as always, thank you for being transparent about how sometimes DIY projects have to go through several stages of adjustment and evolution because so much can go wrong or be unexpected. sorry you got bad news 😢 ❤
One of the things I struggle with is allowing feelings. Watching you express a sadness, helped me in a way to understand my sadness better. Thank you for being sad online because I think...I needed a tutorial. My therapist will also like your video now.
I hear you. I have been allowing feelings and observing and sitting with them. I used to just know that I was sad without actually feeling sad perhaps just pushing it down. Now I've been able to feel some feels and it's ok... I've made it through. Haven't died of feeling just yet... so I'll keep on keeping on...
Caroline, you are so talented, clever, engaging, and inspiring. Your sadness was palpable but so real ... you didn't have to show us that side of you, but you did, and it is an important reminder that we all go through shite. Thank you for inviting us into your world. Remember that any man would be unbelievably lucky to spend any amount of time with you. What's for you won't go by you
im a little blown away by the comments on this video and how like...loving they are. i expected a lot of comments on the bathroom design, but did not expect this and it has hit me in the heart. thank you for words that feel like such a kind embrace. i stayed up last night reading through all of them when i needed a hug and it was just an incredible thing to be able to feel. great gratitude for you all
I was literally so thrilled in the first 5 seconds to see you back in something that is completely your style with those warmer tones. Literally said “there she is. She did it. She’s back.” To myself. Excellent work.
Your sassiness and humor are giving me life. "We're all dying," but your character is a life-saving, first responder, resuscitative treatment for my soul. Thank you! p.s. The new wallpaper is beautiful! Not even my style, but gorgeous. You're so skilled!
Caroline, Im an interior architect and sometimes i dont agree with you, BUT i love you, your energy, what you do, how you do it, and i could watch a thousand of makeover videos from you or whateve you could bring to the table.
I love this, and love a civil disagreement ❤️I’m so glad you’re here regardless, I’m certain I could learn so much from someone with your experience and expertise. So honored you enjoy the videos, thank you for this sweet comment
Best unhinged, bathroom remodel reveal I’ve ever seen. After about the fourth crazy comment, I stopped keeping track, but there’s some real gems here that should totally be turned into bumper stickers, t-shirts, framable art, etc. For example: “I don’t have time to make sure everything I own doesn’t fall into a toilet.” On a serious note, I’m really sorry that you’re going through a rough time right now, Caroline. If it’s any consolation, I think your bathroom turned out beautifully. 💕
Love that the new wallpaper goes with the trim color, so you don’t have to repaint and because you are listening to the instinct that told you to use that color in the first place. Also-as one of the toilet jewelry commenters, please know that I have fished my glasses out of many toilets, including in airports. It happens. And lastly, my medicine cabinet door broke early in the pandemic, so my secrets have been exposed for years & it is truly why I never have guests.
Thank you for bringing laughs and humour through your sadness. I’m so sorry for the bad news you received, bad news sucks. We’re here for you. Fall apart with us, we will virtually sit with you as long as you need ❤
Caroline please you are stunningly beautiful, brilliant, witty, hilarious. That man is an absolute fool and don't let his mistake define your worth. You are an absolute gem and there is a man who will appreciate you. We love you so much and your bathroom is lovely
You know nothing about that man, yet you call him an "absolute fool". Was SHE a fool when she dumped "streetman"? Did she make a "mistake"? Should that define HIS worth? So, when women dump men it's because they're boss bitches who know their worth, but when men dump women it's because they're fools??? Girls rule- boys drool? Such a kindergarteners take on relationships. Sometimes, it just doesn't work between two people. In fact, most of the time it just doesn't work.
Last year I painted my room this blue I was convinced was the perfect colour. The first night in my poorly lit blue room I cried and felt claustrophobic and like the walls were closing in. Everyone said not to waste my time repainting it but I did and feel so happy that I did. Your space ended up looking so special and stunning in the end
OMG, why have I never thought to get a hanging bathmat. I never know what to do with it so that people don't walk on it but I didn't want to have it on a towel rack. You just changed my life. Thank you!
I worked on “figuring out my smells” last Christmas by getting a bunch of travel size colognes I thought I would like. I have enjoyed wearing these different scents and trying them on to see how they fit. While I like most of them, I find that I have been drawn back to a specific one repeatedly. I just splurged for the full size as I know this one is MINE!
I think I can speak for multiple people who watch your channel when I say you've helped us when we're spiralling and get crushed by someone. I hope you know we're all here for you
We have drastically different aesthetic preferences but I love your storytelling and the way your brain works! I love that you’ve shown the ups and downs and perseverance. I’m sorry you got bad news and I hope that the awesomeness you put out into the universe comes back you twentyfold. 💜
Confession: I didn't HATE the first wallpaper and if it were my bathroom I probably would have lived with it, maybe leaned into it with with some poppin' complimentary colors. Having said that, I absolutely love the new wallpaper and the gold paint. You made the right choice.
I once painted my livingroom three times in rapid succession. We all have been there. The important part is that you fixed what made you sad. P.S. Loved the close up camera work...as if you had a choice in a tight space. But you checking the shots was humorously endearing.
Seeing you sad made me so sad because i really enjoy you. Plus I could tell you loved the bathroom and were excited to share it before the man ruined your night. Your bathroom looks amazing and made me want to re-do mine! Sending love ❤
Caroline, you are such a unique person. I appreciate your humor and authenticity! You have the ability to connect with your audience with honesty and style. Thank you for pushing through your pain to make this video. It actually means a lot, and I feel like you’re a virtual friend. I enjoy learning decorating tips from you, and I also enjoy hearing about you as a person. That makes your channel unique, and I always anticipate your new videos! Can’t wait to see next week’s production! Keep on being you! ❤️🥹😀👏🏼❤️
this warmed me up so much. this comment section feels like all my virtual friends. it is wild to have found some camaraderie and connection. thank you for this sweet message.
Watching your videos literally feels like checking in with a friend. Im really sorry about the crushing news, one never wants to hear of their friends (even if its a weird parasocial friendship 😂) going through painful moments. I hope you're taking care of you and being kind to you regardless of the crushing news. You're lovey, colorful, and kooky and chaotic and we're all gonna die so I hope you can find something that gives you joy today.
“Leaning into asymmetry brings balance.” Fucking brilliant advice for decor and life. Loving you spiraling at 1 am, loathing the boy who delivered crushing news to our girl.
I know this is an old video but thank you Caroline for being unashamedly you and being brave enough to make mistakes - it gives me courage. Love the makeover(s)! Your videos always bring me joy 🤗
It’s 1am and I came back to comment because life is falling apart on the west coast too. Both versions of the bathroom are pretty and glad the second version made you happy. Totally felt your pain and discomfort… sending you love and peace. 💜 ~N
Well, I'm pretty sure I just spent half the video with my bottom lip pouting out because I felt so darn sad that you're hurting. On a brighter note, I love how you redid the bathroom, it really does look so much more inviting, it's got a warm cozy feel now. You really do have amazing taste in decorating! 🥰
I really like the new makeover results. The floor looks good in its not matchy matchy way. And you did a great job being honest without being weepy. That must’ve been hard. Well done.
Caroline, your channel is like comfort food on a rainy day. As someone else who lives their life in melancholy sometimes, I hope it doesn't keep you down for too long. Everything will be alright
That silence in the bathroom, broke my heart and I felt every second of it!! Guys suck, but it’s gonna be okay girl keep ya chin up 🖤 And the bathroom looks B E A utiful!!!!!!
Bad guy news can punch a gut like nothing else. There are worse things in life but it is its own special hell. This bathroom, on the other hand, is heaven. Thanks for sharing both with us
So glad you stretched your design wings again and came up with something you love! It’s always cool when a utilitarian room has a lot of character. You’re making me think about experimenting with asymmetry in asymmetrical areas. That’ll be fun to study from now on. Always remember how awesome you are!
I would loveee if you could do like a show (video? progam? podcast?) about adhd. You have it, I'm like 99% sure. Some get diagnosed, others get peer reviewed. You've been peer reviewed. I've found your channel so helpful. It's the little things you mention that have made such a big difference. Like the second toothbrush for the shower? Genius. And I have literally organized my room not once or twice but thrice based on your advice. And yeah, i love the fact that while your channel isn't *about* adhd, it always makes my struggles feel seen and understood. Thank you for that.
I love this bathroom now. Warm is all it needed and everything looks in perfect symmetry and harmony. The small pictures in the way they placed, those little acrylic shelves. Beautiful! Good job! Now on a personal note, take time to love yourself by processing and healing and know people on your community love you and think of you and are sending you good vibes!
Caroline, I'm sending you big, mama bear hugs from Canada. Your sadness definitely came across on screen and was felt big time. I hope you're able to process whatever it is that happened in a healthy way, gain some clarity and feel better soon. Much love. 💕 BTW - the bathroom looks great! I love the colour combo. ✨
You are my escape from my stressful, anxiety filled life. So sorry u had to work thru sad news . Appreciate u for sharing ur life with us. Crack me up "figuring out my smells" rather than "scent" 🤣 Bless u Caroline! 💕
Everything falling into the toilet bit... got me. After being vulnerable and seeing that raw 20 seconds of thinking, rethinking... bless you. I felt that. Whew.
ever since the last video i can literally not get over the milkmaid DJing series. truly a masterpiece -- the way they're pictured from behind i think is what makes them so special and unique. as creepy as AI art generators are i have a blast playing around with them and def hope to make a little collage of creepy interesting art in the style of __(insert famous classic artist here)____ that i could never actually make by hand
That bathmat is fun! I’d love to have one that says “You put your right foot in, you put your right foot out…” It would just make me laugh every day. But then I’d probably have The Holey-Pokey stuck in my head on repeat all damn day every day, too, so maybe not such a great idea. 🤣
The red/pink wallpaper is definitely more you than the green which looked more grey! I still think that the lighting you use in the bathroom would make a WORLD of difference for the colors and how they pop. Those shelves are just asking for plants too! Overall very well put together for such a small space.
I feel for you girl. I always wanted someone who thought I was worth the work. Not that I'm difficult but rather complex. Not mean at all but want to go deeper than superficial. Know your worth! You are beautiful, funny, talented and worth the effort! Be proud of your tenacity. In the morning you will wake up to a gorgeous bathroom and sunshine.
I'm so sorry about all the frogs that you had to 'kiss em petite' and they had the balls to NOT turn into a prince for you! You WILL find the incredibly intelligent, often kind and always goofy nut job that will compliment all the wonderful things that you are! 😘
I found your channel only few weeks ago and I love how honest and real your content feels. This video made me wish youtube had a hug button, feels somehow wrong to like a video where someone is having a rough time. I hope you'll feel better soon but also take the time you need for yourself. ♥ Love the makeover journey, very inspiring. This second version is gorgeous.
Hi Caroline--loving the new bathroom (love the colors!) and video but so sad to hear you got bad news. Please give yourself the space you need to heal and lean in into your loved ones and support systems. You are not alone. Also unhinged 1am bathroom reveals is a genre i didn't know i needed. "Kiss em petite" really got me 😂 Sending love and care to all who read this 💗
The new wallpaper is everything! My favorite part of this video is you going over the invisible shelf and swapping through the amber glasses haha. Great job on all of the details for this bathroom makeover!
Hi Caroline, I'm also in the process of making mistakes. Thank you for making me feel less alone. I hope things work out the way you want them to soon. Love you 💕
A tiny container for small earrings so they won't get lost in the jewellery box abyss is very useful 👍🏻 and a good excuse to have a cute tiny container 💕
Bathroom is friggen beautiful. SO good! I hope your heart is feeling better. Just like your room makeover girl, if you don’t love how things are looking are rn, you can always change everything up entirely and make it amazing! Clearly, you’re a pro at this concept!! ❤
This was truly unhinged in such a relatable way. The end-result is freakin amazing (although I did like the first version too. I might have tried leaning into the grey-green by doing dark green trims and lighter green walls above the wallpaper. You new version is a definite win, though). Sorry about the bad news. I hope you have all the people you want in your life to help you recover!
I'm so sorry about your bad news and that you're going through it. that said, this is the only style of bathroom makeover I ever want to watch now. you're a bright shining light that not even gut-wrenching devastation can dim. we appreciate you !!
I have never related to a vibe more than this 25 minutes in your bathroom. Parasocial relationships are strange, so I'm not going to sit and pretend to know anything about you at all, but as an emotionally chaotic and chronically tinkering night owl, I can't explain to you how utterly relatable and perfect this video is in every way. I feel so seen and I hope whatever dumb dude messed with you never knows the joy of hanging with a person who seems as chill and cool as you.
Thank you for the bathroom makeover, I absolutely loved it. I happen to love both of them, the first attempt was my style (not yours) and the second one is brilliant, made with pleasure and love. I am renovating mine (I am now recovering after a hell of the effort this week) and I cannot find enough vintage style bathrooms makeovers on the internet. I hope your soul will heal nicely and become stronger.
Can't believe you managed to make a bathroom cosy. It's so warm and inviting. Good for you for not settling with something that doesn't satisfy you, even if you have to do it over again. Hope the sting of the devastating guy news passes quickly.
I live for Caroline’s videos. Always reminds me that spiraling and making mistakes is just life as we all hurtle toward death. 😂 Hope you feel better soon, Caroline! The makeover is gorgeous!

“I don’t have time to make sure all of the stuff I own doesn’t fall into a toilet” is so my vibe ❤😂💫🚽
This one made me laugh out loud 😂
My fiancé was like, "I can't remember the last time something I use fell in the toilet." 💀
it's a tough vibe but someone has to have it
Same. I dropped my phone in the toilet the other day. Still works fine!
@@RachelBayati I did that at a concert venue once. 😭
8:30 who’s here now that we know it was indeed NOT crushing news!?!?! It was just a weird Roomba notification…
Wait, but what actually was it?
@@gubayova5570 Roomba is the guy Caroiine was seeing. She sent a message telling Roomba how she feels about him. She went all in. And Roomba's respond was something like "that's so sweet of you. I too appreciate you" and Caroline believed it was a nice rejection, a "crushing news". Turns out Roomba was actually in love with Caroline and she totally misunderstood his message. They are still dating now.
@@yujuti8416his real name is Justin :)
THANK YOU. I was waffling between, "Oh, hon...you don't need to be vulnerable for the whole wide internet...go let yourself have a good cry." & "I WANT ALL THE DETAILS NOW, WHO DO WE HAVE TO BURY?"
Brain blocks for certain words. It’s a thing, well i made the brain block wording up. But! ! I’m telling you certain words ALWAYS AN ISSUE FOR ME. Shelf isn’t one of them, but collegian is. 🤷♀️ Same thing applies for names. Anyway………
as always, thank you for being transparent about how sometimes DIY projects have to go through several stages of adjustment and evolution because so much can go wrong or be unexpected. sorry you got bad news 😢 ❤
One of the things I struggle with is allowing feelings. Watching you express a sadness, helped me in a way to understand my sadness better. Thank you for being sad online because I think...I needed a tutorial. My therapist will also like your video now.
I hear you. I have been allowing feelings and observing and sitting with them. I used to just know that I was sad without actually feeling sad perhaps just pushing it down. Now I've been able to feel some feels and it's ok... I've made it through. Haven't died of feeling just yet... so I'll keep on keeping on...
Caroline, you are so talented, clever, engaging, and inspiring. Your sadness was palpable but so real ... you didn't have to show us that side of you, but you did, and it is an important reminder that we all go through shite. Thank you for inviting us into your world. Remember that any man would be unbelievably lucky to spend any amount of time with you. What's for you won't go by you
im a little blown away by the comments on this video and how like...loving they are. i expected a lot of comments on the bathroom design, but did not expect this and it has hit me in the heart. thank you for words that feel like such a kind embrace. i stayed up last night reading through all of them when i needed a hug and it was just an incredible thing to be able to feel. great gratitude for you all
I was literally so thrilled in the first 5 seconds to see you back in something that is completely your style with those warmer tones. Literally said “there she is. She did it. She’s back.” To myself. Excellent work.
Your sassiness and humor are giving me life. "We're all dying," but your character is a life-saving, first responder, resuscitative treatment for my soul. Thank you!
p.s. The new wallpaper is beautiful! Not even my style, but gorgeous. You're so skilled!
ah im so glad you enjoyed it, even if a different taste! that makes me super happy!
Love the final makeover! The wallpaper is perfect and the paint color is everything!
Caroline, Im an interior architect and sometimes i dont agree with you, BUT i love you, your energy, what you do, how you do it, and i could watch a thousand of makeover videos from you or whateve you could bring to the table.
I love this, and love a civil disagreement ❤️I’m so glad you’re here regardless, I’m certain I could learn so much from someone with your experience and expertise. So honored you enjoy the videos, thank you for this sweet comment
Best unhinged, bathroom remodel reveal I’ve ever seen. After about the fourth crazy comment, I stopped keeping track, but there’s some real gems here that should totally be turned into bumper stickers, t-shirts, framable art, etc. For example: “I don’t have time to make sure everything I own doesn’t fall into a toilet.”
On a serious note, I’m really sorry that you’re going through a rough time right now, Caroline. If it’s any consolation, I think your bathroom turned out beautifully. 💕
I really love how vibrant the space is now!😍😍❣️
Love that the new wallpaper goes with the trim color, so you don’t have to repaint and because you are listening to the instinct that told you to use that color in the first place.
Also-as one of the toilet jewelry commenters, please know that I have fished my glasses out of many toilets, including in airports. It happens.
And lastly, my medicine cabinet door broke early in the pandemic, so my secrets have been exposed for years & it is truly why I never have guests.
😂😂 💞 I love everything about this comment.
Thank you for bringing laughs and humour through your sadness. I’m so sorry for the bad news you received, bad news sucks. We’re here for you. Fall apart with us, we will virtually sit with you as long as you need ❤
We will. We promise.
Caroline please you are stunningly beautiful, brilliant, witty, hilarious. That man is an absolute fool and don't let his mistake define your worth. You are an absolute gem and there is a man who will appreciate you. We love you so much and your bathroom is lovely
oh i thought someone died.
So what she said!!! Love you to the moon! ❤️
You know nothing about that man, yet you call him an "absolute fool". Was SHE a fool when she dumped "streetman"? Did she make a "mistake"? Should that define HIS worth? So, when women dump men it's because they're boss bitches who know their worth, but when men dump women it's because they're fools??? Girls rule- boys drool? Such a kindergarteners take on relationships. Sometimes, it just doesn't work between two people. In fact, most of the time it just doesn't work.
@@oeendrilanope-that’s a heartache face/spiral if there ever has been one….poor girl-what a fool whoever he was is!
Last year I painted my room this blue I was convinced was the perfect colour. The first night in my poorly lit blue room I cried and felt claustrophobic and like the walls were closing in. Everyone said not to waste my time repainting it but I did and feel so happy that I did. Your space ended up looking so special and stunning in the end
What colour did you go for in the end? 😊
I'm curious too. 🤔
The THROWBACK to the 4 non blondes Caroline-style on your FREAKING BATH MAT is goddamn *chefs kiss* 😂😂😎
The transparency during your process here is very appreciated 👌🏻
im so happy to hear that
OMG, why have I never thought to get a hanging bathmat. I never know what to do with it so that people don't walk on it but I didn't want to have it on a towel rack. You just changed my life. Thank you!
I worked on “figuring out my smells” last Christmas by getting a bunch of travel size colognes I thought I would like. I have enjoyed wearing these different scents and trying them on to see how they fit. While I like most of them, I find that I have been drawn back to a specific one repeatedly. I just splurged for the full size as I know this one is MINE!
Well, which one was it? I’m curious!
Jo Malone Wild Bluebell cologne. Seriously, it’s lovely.
@@auntkaz815 I shall get myself down to Sephora and get a sample! Thanks. 🩵
I think I can speak for multiple people who watch your channel when I say you've helped us when we're spiralling and get crushed by someone. I hope you know we're all here for you
We have drastically different aesthetic preferences but I love your storytelling and the way your brain works! I love that you’ve shown the ups and downs and perseverance. I’m sorry you got bad news and I hope that the awesomeness you put out into the universe comes back you twentyfold. 💜
Confession: I didn't HATE the first wallpaper and if it were my bathroom I probably would have lived with it, maybe leaned into it with with some poppin' complimentary colors. Having said that, I absolutely love the new wallpaper and the gold paint. You made the right choice.
I once painted my livingroom three times in rapid succession. We all have been there. The important part is that you fixed what made you sad. P.S. Loved the close up camera work...as if you had a choice in a tight space. But you checking the shots was humorously endearing.
I’m sorry you have a heavy heart! Thank you for bringing light into our lives! ❤😊
Seeing you sad made me so sad because i really enjoy you. Plus I could tell you loved the bathroom and were excited to share it before the man ruined your night.
Your bathroom looks amazing and made me want to re-do mine!
Sending love ❤
Caroline, you are such a unique person. I appreciate your humor and authenticity! You have the ability to connect with your audience with honesty and style. Thank you for pushing through your pain to make this video. It actually means a lot, and I feel like you’re a virtual friend. I enjoy learning decorating tips from you, and I also enjoy hearing about you as a person. That makes your channel unique, and I always anticipate your new videos! Can’t wait to see next week’s production! Keep on being you! ❤️🥹😀👏🏼❤️
this warmed me up so much. this comment section feels like all my virtual friends. it is wild to have found some camaraderie and connection. thank you for this sweet message.
Watching your videos literally feels like checking in with a friend. Im really sorry about the crushing news, one never wants to hear of their friends (even if its a weird parasocial friendship 😂) going through painful moments. I hope you're taking care of you and being kind to you regardless of the crushing news. You're lovey, colorful, and kooky and chaotic and we're all gonna die so I hope you can find something that gives you joy today.
“Leaning into asymmetry brings balance.” Fucking brilliant advice for decor and life. Loving you spiraling at 1 am, loathing the boy who delivered crushing news to our girl.
I know this is an old video but thank you Caroline for being unashamedly you and being brave enough to make mistakes - it gives me courage. Love the makeover(s)! Your videos always bring me joy 🤗
Love a room makeover that starts with this much rage. 🤣❤️
i literally dont know how else to get going in the day
It’s 1am and I came back to comment because life is falling apart on the west coast too.
Both versions of the bathroom are pretty and glad the second version made you happy.
Totally felt your pain and discomfort… sending you love and peace.
💜
~N
Well, I'm pretty sure I just spent half the video with my bottom lip pouting out because I felt so darn sad that you're hurting. On a brighter note, I love how you redid the bathroom, it really does look so much more inviting, it's got a warm cozy feel now. You really do have amazing taste in decorating! 🥰
Sleep deprived Caroline might just be my favorite so far. Def would love more of these shows filmed in the wee hours. You. Are. The. Best. 🤩🤗
oh man i love this idea. filming more at 2am, maybe with some wine. could be a good time :)
Lol I live for these opening rants 😂❤
Watching this at 1:43AM as Caroline spirals at 1:30AM in her bathroom, I’ve never felt so deeply connected to this channel.
I really like the new makeover results. The floor looks good in its not matchy matchy way. And you did a great job being honest without being weepy. That must’ve been hard. Well done.
Caroline, your channel is like comfort food on a rainy day. As someone else who lives their life in melancholy sometimes, I hope it doesn't keep you down for too long. Everything will be alright
That silence in the bathroom, broke my heart and I felt every second of it!! Guys suck, but it’s gonna be okay girl keep ya chin up 🖤
And the bathroom looks B E A utiful!!!!!!
Bad guy news can punch a gut like nothing else. There are worse things in life but it is its own special hell. This bathroom, on the other hand, is heaven. Thanks for sharing both with us
So glad you stretched your design wings again and came up with something you love! It’s always cool when a utilitarian room has a lot of character. You’re making me think about experimenting with asymmetry in asymmetrical areas. That’ll be fun to study from now on. Always remember how awesome you are!
I would loveee if you could do like a show (video? progam? podcast?) about adhd. You have it, I'm like 99% sure. Some get diagnosed, others get peer reviewed. You've been peer reviewed.
I've found your channel so helpful. It's the little things you mention that have made such a big difference. Like the second toothbrush for the shower? Genius. And I have literally organized my room not once or twice but thrice based on your advice. And yeah, i love the fact that while your channel isn't *about* adhd, it always makes my struggles feel seen and understood. Thank you for that.
I love this bathroom now. Warm is all it needed and everything looks in perfect symmetry and harmony. The small pictures in the way they placed, those little acrylic shelves. Beautiful! Good job! Now on a personal note, take time to love yourself by processing and healing and know people on your community love you and think of you and are sending you good vibes!
so glad you liked it!! thank you!
Caroline, I'm sending you big, mama bear hugs from Canada. Your sadness definitely came across on screen and was felt big time. I hope you're able to process whatever it is that happened in a healthy way, gain some clarity and feel better soon. Much love. 💕
BTW - the bathroom looks great! I love the colour combo. ✨
You are my escape from my stressful, anxiety filled life. So sorry u had to work thru sad news . Appreciate u for sharing ur life with us. Crack me up "figuring out my smells" rather than "scent" 🤣 Bless u Caroline! 💕
ohhhh SCENT hahaha i forgot that word existed
Everything falling into the toilet bit... got me. After being vulnerable and seeing that raw 20 seconds of thinking, rethinking... bless you. I felt that. Whew.
ever since the last video i can literally not get over the milkmaid DJing series. truly a masterpiece -- the way they're pictured from behind i think is what makes them so special and unique. as creepy as AI art generators are i have a blast playing around with them and def hope to make a little collage of creepy interesting art in the style of __(insert famous classic artist here)____ that i could never actually make by hand
I love that you put the effort to make sure the bathroom was something you enjoy. Very inspiring for someone who gives up and sits in discomfort a lot
That bathmat is fun! I’d love to have one that says “You put your right foot in, you put your right foot out…” It would just make me laugh every day. But then I’d probably have The Holey-Pokey stuck in my head on repeat all damn day every day, too, so maybe not such a great idea. 🤣
I saw a bumper sticker that says What if the Hokey Pokey IS what it’s all about
i am so glad u liked the way you redecorated the bathroom the second time,,, I personally preferred the first wallpaper,,,, but both are nice,,,
The red/pink wallpaper is definitely more you than the green which looked more grey! I still think that the lighting you use in the bathroom would make a WORLD of difference for the colors and how they pop. Those shelves are just asking for plants too! Overall very well put together for such a small space.
I feel for you girl. I always wanted someone who thought I was worth the work. Not that I'm difficult but rather complex. Not mean at all but want to go deeper than superficial. Know your worth! You are beautiful, funny, talented and worth the effort! Be proud of your tenacity. In the morning you will wake up to a gorgeous bathroom and sunshine.
That's sweet💕💕💗💗
I'm so sorry about all the frogs that you had to 'kiss em petite' and they had the balls to NOT turn into a prince for you!
You WILL find the incredibly intelligent, often kind and always goofy nut job that will compliment all the wonderful things that you are! 😘
I love it, Caroline! The wallpaper is my favorite element. The room represents your style perfectly! I hope your spirits are lifted.
I found your channel only few weeks ago and I love how honest and real your content feels. This video made me wish youtube had a hug button, feels somehow wrong to like a video where someone is having a rough time. I hope you'll feel better soon but also take the time you need for yourself. ♥
Love the makeover journey, very inspiring. This second version is gorgeous.
Ok, I got something to say: I almost always skip the ads of every video I watch, but yours are SO ENTERTAINING
Hi Caroline--loving the new bathroom (love the colors!) and video but so sad to hear you got bad news. Please give yourself the space you need to heal and lean in into your loved ones and support systems. You are not alone.
Also unhinged 1am bathroom reveals is a genre i didn't know i needed. "Kiss em petite" really got me 😂
Sending love and care to all who read this 💗
The universe brought me back for part two and I’m so grateful!
Oh my I didn't expect the comeback of your lyrics!😅 So cool to embroid it in your bath mat!
I LOVE the callback of the Kiss Em Petite song
“Keeps them wet”
“I don’t have time to keep stuff from falling in the toilet”
❤ embroider that on a welcome mat
The new wallpaper is everything! My favorite part of this video is you going over the invisible shelf and swapping through the amber glasses haha. Great job on all of the details for this bathroom makeover!
Who’s here after watching Caroline’s recent love journey video about Justin??
Me 🙋🏻😁
This warmer color palette is beautiful and I think it works so well with the light brown shower tiles! Plus orange is such a great mood lifter!
Hi Caroline, I'm also in the process of making mistakes. Thank you for making me feel less alone. I hope things work out the way you want them to soon. Love you 💕
🎶 Makin mistakes, Kiss em petit 🎶
Came straight here for a rewatch after the Roomba vid..... ❤
A tiny container for small earrings so they won't get lost in the jewellery box abyss is very useful 👍🏻 and a good excuse to have a cute tiny container 💕
Bathroom is friggen beautiful. SO good! I hope your heart is feeling better. Just like your room makeover girl, if you don’t love how things are looking are rn, you can always change everything up entirely and make it amazing! Clearly, you’re a pro at this concept!! ❤
This was truly unhinged in such a relatable way. The end-result is freakin amazing (although I did like the first version too. I might have tried leaning into the grey-green by doing dark green trims and lighter green walls above the wallpaper. You new version is a definite win, though). Sorry about the bad news. I hope you have all the people you want in your life to help you recover!
The rant 2 minutes in 😂😂😂. And everything that followed minute 9. "This is an effing toilet" I felt that.
As a pink lover and saturation lover, I LOVE this new wallpaper. Plus the orange is just so bold and pretty!
I'm so sorry about your bad news and that you're going through it. that said, this is the only style of bathroom makeover I ever want to watch now. you're a bright shining light that not even gut-wrenching devastation can dim. we appreciate you !!
Always love your candid authenticity. You keep it real
I have never loved a RUclipsr/stranger more than I love you (in the most wholesome and least creepy way possible).
Not even two minutes in and I can’t stop laughing out loud 😂 Looking forward to part 2 of this bathroom makeover 🛁
Love her honesty. Shes awesome!!
actually that was the 2nd part of the makeover, part 1 is one video ahead
I have never related to a vibe more than this 25 minutes in your bathroom. Parasocial relationships are strange, so I'm not going to sit and pretend to know anything about you at all, but as an emotionally chaotic and chronically tinkering night owl, I can't explain to you how utterly relatable and perfect this video is in every way. I feel so seen and I hope whatever dumb dude messed with you never knows the joy of hanging with a person who seems as chill and cool as you.
Seriously couldn’t love a RUclipsr anymore than you Caroline❤️🤣you make me laugh every time!
Thank you for the bathroom makeover, I absolutely loved it. I happen to love both of them, the first attempt was my style (not yours) and the second one is brilliant, made with pleasure and love. I am renovating mine (I am now recovering after a hell of the effort this week) and I cannot find enough vintage style bathrooms makeovers on the internet. I hope your soul will heal nicely and become stronger.
Can't believe you managed to make a bathroom cosy. It's so warm and inviting. Good for you for not settling with something that doesn't satisfy you, even if you have to do it over again. Hope the sting of the devastating guy news passes quickly.
Had to come back to watch this one after the most recent 🤣
I live for Caroline’s videos. Always reminds me that spiraling and making mistakes is just life as we all hurtle toward death. 😂
Hope you feel better soon, Caroline! The makeover is gorgeous!
