I love that your apartment really is tiny , when you see other you tubers show so called tiny space’s they’re no where near tiny , your space saving ideas are brilliant thank you.
Thank you Barbara! Yes I notice that too! Especially on Insta.. It seems 'one person's tiny, is another person's ENOURMOUS" . I just moved to a 46sqm apt & to me that's HUGE now, so I feel weird posting under 'This Tiny Space' now but to other people, 46sqm IS tiny! 😅
Haha! I see so many accounts on Insta of small space wardrobes where the person who lives there only seems to have 5 items of clothing, each peice is perfect & either white, beige or pale salmon ( to match the decor) and no one ever seems to have more than one pair of shoes! It's a pet peeve, can you tell 😅
I really really like how confident you are with your space. Most RUclipsrs who present their tiny apartment seem to apologize for their choice to live in such a small flat. You are just fine with it. Plus your home is beautiful and well planned so you make the most of it. It was fun watching, I'll come back to your channel. All the best for you. Anne from Germany
Thanks so much Anne! It's funny because I was ashamed about it for a long time. I had moved to a new city & didn't want to share & this was all I could afford...& I was embarrassed by that. But I did some work on it & I grew to love it & the freedom it gave me. There are millions of people who live in tiny spaces, for different reasons, so I thought I'd get over myself & share how I make it work. Best decision ever! Thanks again for your kind words 🥰
I simply love how you got right to your point, and gave us the tour of your apt. No cutesy babbling, or "fluff" ! Good on ya mate !!!! By the way....Love your apt !!!
Thank you so much! Yes! Truly Tiny is a perfect description! It was in the newspaper (before I moved in) as "The Smallest Apartment in Sydney" & I think they might be right!
I've never seen an apartment so well organised. What you did in such a small place is just amazing. I don't know for Australia but in France we have stackable pots and pans without hand : Ingenio by Tefal. I love them.
@@katbar6066 Thanks so much! It did take me a few months to jack it out to be fair, and there was A LOT of trial and error, but I was determined to use every millimetre! I used an induction hotplate from IKEA which tucked in under my sink & a tiny airfryer for anything that required an oven. I have a whole series of detailed IGTV mini vids that I must upload because they go into more detailed specifics. But I crammed A LOT into that tiny space!!!
This is by far the most loveable and liveable tiny space that I actually want to live in. I like how lively she is and how she made the space work for her.
WOW! It is indeed tiny, but you've outfitted it very well with all the essentials and a few luxuries. I am a big fan of living tiny and admire anyone who is currently able to do so; and to do so stylishly!
Thank you! Yes it's a commitment /adjustment for sure & 100% not for everyone !!! For me personally, it was about having complete privacy (ie not living in a house share) whilst also living within my means. But it's not for the faint of heart!
I've seen other videos of tiny apartments that were staged, but you really appear to live here. You're well organized! There's a surprising amount of storage space, and it looks like you have a balcony for living area in good weather. I could see myself living there, though I would tuck a desk in that nook with your mini-library. This is perhaps the best micro studio I've seen on RUclips.
Ah thank you Bob!!! That's so kind! I tried to utilize every possible millimetre of the space to maximize the storage & made quite a few adjustments to the wardrobe configuration so I could get more in! yes the balcony is FANTASTIC! It gets used every single day, even in winter. You can't really tell from the video but the mini library is up high on the wall above the bed, (inbetween the wall cupboard & the balcony door) so no room for a desk there, BUT I use the pop out I made for the kitchen as a desk! I use the stool from the balcony as my chair & it works a treat! Thanks again for your lovely compliments 🤗
That makes me so happy to hear!!! Yes its very very small!! but the tips and tricks would work in any home! I'm naturally quite untidy so I've found over the years that the more organised I am, the easier it is to keep tidy! thank you for you lovely feedback :)
Watching this w my sons. Explain g to my eldest that your whole house is the same exact size as our master bedroom: bathroom, kitchen, livingroom/bedroom and closet! He adds "and library!" wel done, you!
Her innovative solutions are excellent, and her design sense, making her toiletry articles quite similar in packaging is just wonderful. I am impressed!
It is amazing what you have done with such a tiny space. It is very well organised, and I loved your presentation style. I hope you don’t have to pay a small fortune in rent each month for living in it, but even micro-apartments in the major cities seems to be incredibly expensive these days,. Thanks for the video
Thank you so much Luke! Yes rent in Sydney is crazy high & it really cost more than it should for what it is, but what can ya do!! Its the cheapest I could find that was totally self contained, but yes, still over priced (I think anyway) for what it is. Thank you for your lovely compliments!! :)
Great tour and fabulous ideas for organization. We recently moved from an 860 square foot bungalow to a 2400 sq ft home. However our new home lacks storage. Surprisingly enough we are having trouble fitting our things from our old place into our new home. Go figure. Thank you for all of your fantastic ideas.
It's always the way! I recently moved to a 46sqm apartment from 12sqm and I'm the same! I don't know how I made it all fit!! Lol! thank you for your lovely words and good luck with the new place!
Good use of space with the Ikea closets, and the pull-out shelf above the fridge. The only thing I'd probably add is color. I would paint to both section-off "rooms," and to create a mood.
Thank you! It was a LOT of trial and error trying to maximize the storage! I actually started out with loads of colour because that's my personal style but the space was so incredibly small that it just didn't work, it make the room feel messy and smaller so I had to work with a pallet that matched the black wall of the balcony which was the main focal point (which you don't see in the video) and it made it flow much better, I couldn't wait to get back to colour when I moved out 18 months later to a "normal' sized apartment!! 😂
It's lovely, I'm doing research for a micro camper and your ideas are spot on! Thank you for all the great storage tips, they will be very helpful in my build!
Thank you so much Jamie!!! Glad I could be of assistance & best of luck with the build!!! I have a few more detailed IGTV vids I did for insta that might be helpful too! @thistinyspace
Your small space reminds me of when I first moved out of home, I lived in a room for a several months than into this tiny self contained studio in Marrickville. I didn't have much $$ but somehow made the space my own. It was quite spacious had 2 large rooms one for kitchen one for living/bedroom and a small bathroom - I loved that space.
Your tiny apartment is awesome!!! I love it, so well organized and everything in its place! Thank you so much for making a video of your tiny apartment for us to see!!! Keep healthy and safe during this pandemic!
Thank you! I'm a firm believer that your space should work for you, not the other way around, no matter how compact! And I put this space through it's paces big time!!!!
You know, I have NO idea why I didn't film it!!! I LOVED it out there!!! I just recently moved out but I think I featured it once on IGTV for Insta so I'll try post it here!! Thanks so much for your lovely comments :)
This Tiny Space New subbie here. Jedda I’m curious with all your moves do you work from home? Your job allows for the flexibility of moving so often? If so, I’d love to see how you do this in your tiny home. Thank you, getting inspired 💗
@@elianah8803 Hi Elianah, Lol, I only moved 3 minutes down the street!! I'm a freelancer in Television so it's pretty flexi, I never worked from home in the micro studio but when I did need a desk, I used to use the pop out counter in the kitchen and the stool from the balcony and that worked pretty good!
Wait!!😮 what? ❤ Girl you rock that. Space and Thanks for the space saving ideas. Will watch again and share. Viewed 8/2023. Ohhhhhh was that a glimpse of an out doors area? If so, would like to see how you decorated it.
Kogan sell Ovela kitchen pot set with removable handles same as the Tefal for a fraction of the price (I bought a set a couple of months ago for $45 against the similar Tefal set at $299). It's many years since I lived in Sydney, but honestly, I'm appalled that any place in Australia would have the temerity to even build something this tiny. Of course, Sydney has always been overpriced, so I guess it's the only way you could afford to live there now. You've done a marvellous job of decorating your little shoebox. I have a Tiny House (28 sq m) that I had built with lots of storage built in, so I appreciate all of your clever hacks and finishes. It sure makes my place seem like a mansion size wise though.
You had me at TINY! LOVED every single video (yes, I watched each one!) and then I became your newest subbie! BEST, brief and practical tips for anyone with a small apartment/house!!!! 🥰😍
I didn't see anything on which to use those pans. I'm guessing she has one of those single burners (i.e "hot plate"). The slide out counter top above fridge is my favorite part! That's so clever!
Hi Kim, I have an IKEA induction hotplate (instead of a stove top) which tucks in under the sink perfectly and a mini air-fryer (which I use instead of an oven) which I keep in the cupboard (which is why you don't see them!} Because the entire countertop space is less than 100cm INCLUDING the sink, I like to keep the space clear & useable when I'm not cooking, so it looks like I don't have cooking appliances, but I do! Thanks for your lovely compliments about my homemade pop out bench, I was pretty pleased with myself!:
I really enjoyed watching this video! I'm more motivated now to make the most of our apartment here in Sydney now that we've decided not to move to a bigger place.
I've lived 13 years in a 12 sqm apartment in Copenhagen and now got a 48 sqm apartment about 400 m down the same road. Every day I pass my old place on my bike and miss it. The sounds through the walls (lousy insolation), the neighbors (shared common kitchen), the messy hallways (shifting cleaning ladies). Everything. I only had 1 room and a bathroom in the 12 sqm one but now I have a kitchen, a bathroom, a hallway, a bedroom, and a living room. But only furniture for the bedroom and no kitchen gear and I just cannot feel at home. I know it's a luxury problem but I feel almost agoraphobic. The living room is empty and it roars when walking through it. We Danes love our cozy vibes and smaller living spaces and although 12 sqm is on the very smaller side, it never felt too small for me.
I TOTALLY understand!! I also recently moved to a bigger place & I find myself looking at pictures on my Instagram wistfully. It's amazing how you adjust to a smaller space & it was your home for a very long time... it will take time to adjust to your bigger space but you'll get there & one day it will feel like home too & hygge will be restored. Best of luck!
Hello from Canada! Wow, great job organizing your tiny studio apartment. I love that you have a place for shoes, lol. I can see what looks like a balcony, so you can have some fresh air and have a living space there as well .A Convection Oven on the countertop would really help for cooking/baking. I have a standard electric stove with oven but I use my Convection Oven more than the big one. Saves on hydro too. Thank you for the lovely tour! Stay safe!
Hello Canada!!! Yes the balcony is terrific! I have plants, a rug, fairy lights & a huge mirror out there so it's a lovely spot, I have an induction hotplate instead of a stove top which tucks in under the sink perfectly and a mini air-fryer which I use instead of an oven, which I keep in the cupboard in the hall. (which is why you don't see them!} Because the entire countertop space is less than 100cm INCLUDING the sink, I like to keep the space clear & useable when I'm not cooking. Thank you so much for your lovely comments!!! Very kind and sweet of you!!! Stay healthy :)
Your apartment is so cute and organised. I love small spaces, i was wondering, How does one come across a micro-apartment in Sydney?? I have been searching but have yet to come across any.
So sorry for the very late reply!!! I used the website RealEstate.com.au to be honest I wasn't looking specifically for a micro studio, I just put in what I could afford & this was one of the very few options in my price range. It's on Parramatta road in Camperdown. Hope this helps & good luck! 🍀
Thanks Diana, you may not have noticed but I have a small very shallow circular shelving unit over the toilet where I keep my toiletries (the room is too small for standard hard corner open shelving), fresh towels live rolled up inside a shoe hanger which hangs on the back of the door. I've found they take up less space & are less cluttered looking this way, the shoe holder also holds spare toilet paper, my hair straightener & additional toiletries like body moisturiser, cotton wool etc. Small items live in brass flower pots which sit on round shelves by the sink , but you may not have spotted them because they blend in! I've found pots take up less space than traditional baskets :)
oh my goodness your home is gorgeous!! You have some amazing storage solutions. Do you also have a balcony? I would live there in a heartbeat. I would have a toaster oven and an induction plate and I would be set! Thank you so much for sharing your home with us. Oh, even your coats and bag on the front door goes with everything!! haha Adorable. (EDIT: I'm amazed too how many shoes/belts/clothes you manage to have in your space. well done!)
Thank you so much! You're so kind! And yes you're right, that's all you actually need! Under the sink I have an induction hotplate that tucks in nicely behind the chopping board & under my trousers is my baby airfryer, which kind of does the same as a toaster oven but is smaller & easier to store. Yes I have a great little balcony, lots of pictures of it on my insta @thistinyspace & I'd be lost without it!!! I LOVE IT! Thanks so much again, much appreciate your lovely words :)
@@thistinyspace I will check out your Instagram. I've heard about the airfyer, I should check it out. My husband and I are retiring in 30 months!! (not that I'm counting, lol) but we want to move back to Vancouver Island, BC Canada and build a tiny house. :) Thanks for the response and I will now go to Instagram. haha
Oh I'm sooooo jealous! I would be counting down too!!! Tip re the air fryer, despite the infomercials, it's NOTHING like a deep fat fryer. It's literally just a tiny oven, which is perfect for tiny spaces!
Wow! Really impressed with what you did with such a long and narrow space. Have seen similarly sized US apartments, but some people reject because they dont know what to do. BUT no toilet is a deal breaker. Lol.
Hello, dear I love your apartment, you are very clever at making every space your own, My favourite is the space until the cabinet, would you mind explaining how you built, because that would every helpful in my kitchen as well, lovely tutorial. Thanks a lots and best wishes!! ❤
Thank you! It's just a set of drawer runners attracted to a piece of IKEA counter top I had cut to size and then screwed into the cabinet carcass. It's the best thing & all tiny spaces should have one!!!
I love Nuxe oil too! And it looks beautiful on a display shelf. Where do you buy those nice bottles for your beauty products? And the label maker? I really want to try it in my bathroom too. Your bathroom is lovely.
Ah thanks so much Grace!!! isn't Nuxe the best!! the smell...so good. The products I use most are by a company called Trilogy and the packaging is lovely, so what you see on the shelf is mainly used products, that once they run out, I just wash and reuse the bottle / jar/ tub. I'm not sure where you live but we have a store in Sydney called Diaso and they sell similar bottles. The label maker I use is from Dymo, you want the one that is mechanical (ie not battery operated) if you google "Dymo Embossing Label maker" it will come up. I ordered mine online & a few of the letters didn't work, so if you can, buy it in a store, that way you can return it easier if there are any issues! I have a more detailed vid I made for IGTV for insta about the bathroom if you're on the gram that you might find useful! :)
I live in about 190sqft and its the tiniest and best home i lived in. It´s more relaxed not having so much stuff and also not having to worry about keeping your whole house tidy..since its just a quick clean lol. And because it´s small, it´s easier to keep organised. I live there with 3!! dogs.
Someone once said to me "how could you possibly live there" & my response was, I don't. I live in one of the greatest cities in the world, I "live" out there. I also grew to love the cosiness in winter, which you'll no doubt understand!. I believe people really don't need that much space as long as it's well designed. I personally have never understood the concept of paying for excess space you don't actually use!!
@@thistinyspace Oh yes agree. When i am looking for a new appartment, they never want to rent the small ones to me, because of my dogs. But even when i lived in a bigger home, the dogs are where i am, they are not running around through the house or need a spare bedroom haha. All they need is nice long walks and mental stimulation, so inside they are just relaxing. Plus i am lucky i have a nice backyard where we hang out when the weather is nice. I was glad i could rent this tiny place, i love it. A big space stresses me out, i just want a little cosy place. The documentary Minimalism on Netflix is also interesting to watch, if you havent already.
Congrats! It's a challenge, I know. I call my unit a BEDROOM, not really an apartment...But if you're practically just there to sleep and chill at night, it's... really more a bedroom... Cooking can be a challenge for smells and tiny 'friends"...
So true! My brother referred to as "a closet, not a flat" And it was hard to argue! It's amazing how you do just get used to it though, plus I found it did make me go out & about more.. as you say as long as you've got the necessities, that's all you really need. Thanks so much for stopping by 😉
Your Sydney Apartment is the best "Paris" apartment. It goes to prove that 450 sq ft is not small at all. I wish I knew which suburb is your beautiful place in?
Yes! I couldn't agree more!!! It's a total deal breaker for me, I couldn't live anywhere that didn't have some sort of outdoor space, as you say it's worth far more than having a larger internal space, its good for the soul!. thank you for the lovely compliments 😊
I love that your apartment really is tiny , when you see other you tubers show so called tiny space’s they’re no where near tiny , your space saving ideas are brilliant thank you.

The fact that you have what appears to be a small balcony makes all the difference. You did a great job with such a tiny space.
Thanks so much, that's so lovely of you to say. Yes the balcony makes ALL the difference, I truly don't think it would be liveable without it!
Hi Loriann, just wanted to let you know I finally posted the missing balcony tour! It's up now if you wanted to see what it was like 😉
I simply love how you got right to your point, and gave us the tour of your apt. No cutesy babbling, or "fluff" ! Good on ya mate !!!! By the way....Love your apt !!!
Haahaa thank you Doreen! I have to say it's a pet peeve of mine! Get to the point already! 😅

Thank you so much! That's very sweet of you 😊
Very tiny but beautiful and updated. Lucky lady 👑
Thank you so much Lindy! very nice of you to say :)
This is by far the best and most stylish micro apartment I've seen, amazing job.
Ahhh! Thank you !! 🥰🥰🥰
Your tiny apartment is awesome!!! I love it, so well organized and everything in its place! Thank you so much for making a video of your tiny apartment for us to see!!! Keep healthy and safe during this pandemic!
Awh thank you Dom!!! That's made my day!!! Hope you stay safe too!
I really love it I'm getting ready to move into a micro apartment you really inspired me
Oh I'm so glad!!! Its a challenge at the start but once you work out how to make the space work for you, you'll settle right in!
So well organized! Love it 😍
Thank you so much! Very lovely of you to say :)
everything is so well arranged!! love this!
Thank you so much!! When your place is this tiny, you really don't have any choice 😂
Wow, 12 square metres! You've really made the most of every inch.
Thank you! I'm a firm believer that your space should work for you, not the other way around, no matter how compact! And I put this space through it's paces big time!!!!
i enjoyed this tour!
Thanks so much! Delighted to hear that!
Such a great place, was hoping to see the balcony area. Cozy and organized, it’s lovely
You know, I have NO idea why I didn't film it!!! I LOVED it out there!!! I just recently moved out but I think I featured it once on IGTV for Insta so I'll try post it here!! Thanks so much for your lovely comments :)
This Tiny Space New subbie here. Jedda I’m curious with all your moves do you work from home? Your job allows for the flexibility of moving so often? If so, I’d love to see how you do this in your tiny home. Thank you, getting inspired 💗
@@elianah8803 Hi Elianah, Lol, I only moved 3 minutes down the street!! I'm a freelancer in Television so it's pretty flexi, I never worked from home in the micro studio but when I did need a desk, I used to use the pop out counter in the kitchen and the stool from the balcony and that worked pretty good!
Hi Elianah, just wanted to let you know I finally posted the missing balcony tour! It's up now if you wanted to see what it was like 😉
Micro space well utilized. Love it.
Thank you!!!! 😊
Wait!!😮 what? ❤ Girl you rock that. Space and Thanks for the space saving ideas. Will watch again and share. Viewed 8/2023. Ohhhhhh was that a glimpse of an out doors area? If so, would like to see how you decorated it.
My absolute pleasure! It was quite a bit of trial & error but I don't think a single inch went unused!!
Yesss I love it love it love it...you have a very zen rich in decor place!👏👏👏
Thank you so much Arvela!!! That's very lovely of you!! 😊
Lovely Home! Nothing is missing
Thank you Brenda!!! That's such a lovely thing to say 😊
Kogan sell Ovela kitchen pot set with removable handles same as the Tefal for a fraction of the price (I bought a set a couple of months ago for $45 against the similar Tefal set at $299). It's many years since I lived in Sydney, but honestly, I'm appalled that any place in Australia would have the temerity to even build something this tiny. Of course, Sydney has always been overpriced, so I guess it's the only way you could afford to live there now. You've done a marvellous job of decorating your little shoebox. I have a Tiny House (28 sq m) that I had built with lots of storage built in, so I appreciate all of your clever hacks and finishes. It sure makes my place seem like a mansion size wise though.
Ohh thanks!!! Great to know!!! Love Kogan
Awww I really enjoyed how you did this footage .
Cleaver storage solution
Blessings 🌿
Thank you so much 🙏

You had me at TINY! LOVED every single video (yes, I watched each one!) and then I became your newest subbie! BEST, brief and practical tips for anyone with a small apartment/house!!!! 🥰😍
Ah thank you so much!!!! That's so lovely!!! I do more detail IGTV videos on Instagram if you're "on the gram" as the kids say! 🙃
@@thistinyspace You're most welcome! I'm "on the gram" and will check out your page! 😊 Thanks!
I just moved in my micro studio and I barely could find any decor inspo online , thank you for making this video!!!
Oh that makes me so happy!!! Best of luck & enjoy making it your own! :)
I didn't see anything on which to use those pans. I'm guessing she has one of those single burners (i.e "hot plate"). The slide out counter top above fridge is my favorite part! That's so clever!
Hi Kim, I have an IKEA induction hotplate (instead of a stove top) which tucks in under the sink perfectly and a mini air-fryer (which I use instead of an oven) which I keep in the cupboard (which is why you don't see them!} Because the entire countertop space is less than 100cm INCLUDING the sink, I like to keep the space clear & useable when I'm not cooking, so it looks like I don't have cooking appliances, but I do! Thanks for your lovely compliments about my homemade pop out bench, I was pretty pleased with myself!:
Great looking space! That window is huge and really brings in the light needed to make it feel spacious
Absolutely! It's actually a little balcony! It makes the world of difference, the magic of natural light!!
Hi Colby, just wanted to let you know I finally posted the missing balcony tour! It's up now if you wanted to see what it was like 😉
I really enjoyed watching this video! I'm more motivated now to make the most of our apartment here in Sydney now that we've decided not to move to a bigger place.
Thanks so much Stephanie! that's lovely to hear!!!
I've lived 13 years in a 12 sqm apartment in Copenhagen and now got a 48 sqm apartment about 400 m down the same road. Every day I pass my old place on my bike and miss it. The sounds through the walls (lousy insolation), the neighbors (shared common kitchen), the messy hallways (shifting cleaning ladies). Everything. I only had 1 room and a bathroom in the 12 sqm one but now I have a kitchen, a bathroom, a hallway, a bedroom, and a living room. But only furniture for the bedroom and no kitchen gear and I just cannot feel at home. I know it's a luxury problem but I feel almost agoraphobic. The living room is empty and it roars when walking through it. We Danes love our cozy vibes and smaller living spaces and although 12 sqm is on the very smaller side, it never felt too small for me.
I TOTALLY understand!! I also recently moved to a bigger place & I find myself looking at pictures on my Instagram wistfully. It's amazing how you adjust to a smaller space & it was your home for a very long time... it will take time to adjust to your bigger space but you'll get there & one day it will feel like home too & hygge will be restored. Best of luck!
@@thistinyspace Restoring hygge is the utmost priority in these times! Thank you.
My friends and I played a drinking game. Everytime you said 12 square meters we drank. We are all now drunk!🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
Haahaa I love it!!! Probably because it never ceased to shock me!
Hello from Canada! Wow, great job organizing your tiny studio apartment. I love that you have a place for shoes, lol. I can see what looks like a balcony, so you can have some fresh air and have a living space there as well .A Convection Oven on the countertop would really help for cooking/baking. I have a standard electric stove with oven but I use my Convection Oven more than the big one. Saves on hydro too.
Thank you for the lovely tour! Stay safe!
Hello Canada!!! Yes the balcony is terrific! I have plants, a rug, fairy lights & a huge mirror out there so it's a lovely spot, I have an induction hotplate instead of a stove top which tucks in under the sink perfectly and a mini air-fryer which I use instead of an oven, which I keep in the cupboard in the hall. (which is why you don't see them!} Because the entire countertop space is less than 100cm INCLUDING the sink, I like to keep the space clear & useable when I'm not cooking. Thank you so much for your lovely comments!!! Very kind and sweet of you!!! Stay healthy :)
Hello from Australia, just wanted to let you know I finally posted the missing balcony tour! It's up now if you wanted to see what it was like 😉
Your space is so smart, you've done so well!!
Thanks so much! ☺
Your apartment is so cute and organised. I love small spaces, i was wondering, How does one come across a micro-apartment in Sydney?? I have been searching but have yet to come across any.
So sorry for the very late reply!!! I used the website RealEstate.com.au to be honest I wasn't looking specifically for a micro studio, I just put in what I could afford & this was one of the very few options in my price range. It's on Parramatta road in Camperdown. Hope this helps & good luck! 🍀
I dont know what your occupation is but you could definitely be a professional organizer! Very clean and organized lovely little apartment!
Thank you so much! You're very kind ☺
Lovely, really well organised
Thank you Margaret! I was a LOT of trial & error! x
Try rolling towels on open shelving over the back of the toilet. Store small items in baskets on the shelving as well.
Thanks Diana, you may not have noticed but I have a small very shallow circular shelving unit over the toilet where I keep my toiletries (the room is too small for standard hard corner open shelving), fresh towels live rolled up inside a shoe hanger which hangs on the back of the door. I've found they take up less space & are less cluttered looking this way, the shoe holder also holds spare toilet paper, my hair straightener & additional toiletries like body moisturiser, cotton wool etc. Small items live in brass flower pots which sit on round shelves by the sink , but you may not have spotted them because they blend in! I've found pots take up less space than traditional baskets :)
@@thistinyspace Such good ideas!
@@dianer8881 thanks so much! Necessity is a powerful thing!! 😅
oh my goodness your home is gorgeous!! You have some amazing storage solutions. Do you also have a balcony? I would live there in a heartbeat. I would have a toaster oven and an induction plate and I would be set! Thank you so much for sharing your home with us. Oh, even your coats and bag on the front door goes with everything!! haha Adorable. (EDIT: I'm amazed too how many shoes/belts/clothes you manage to have in your space. well done!)
Thank you so much! You're so kind! And yes you're right, that's all you actually need! Under the sink I have an induction hotplate that tucks in nicely behind the chopping board & under my trousers is my baby airfryer, which kind of does the same as a toaster oven but is smaller & easier to store. Yes I have a great little balcony, lots of pictures of it on my insta @thistinyspace & I'd be lost without it!!! I LOVE IT! Thanks so much again, much appreciate your lovely words :)
@@thistinyspace I will check out your Instagram. I've heard about the airfyer, I should check it out. My husband and I are retiring in 30 months!! (not that I'm counting, lol) but we want to move back to Vancouver Island, BC Canada and build a tiny house. :) Thanks for the response and I will now go to Instagram. haha
Oh I'm sooooo jealous! I would be counting down too!!! Tip re the air fryer, despite the infomercials, it's NOTHING like a deep fat fryer. It's literally just a tiny oven, which is perfect for tiny spaces!
@@thistinyspace OH!!! lol I totally thought it was a dupe on deep frying!! haha thanks! :)
Hi KB, just wanted to let you know I finally posted the missing balcony tour! It's up now if you wanted to see what it was like 😉
I like your small, but cute apartment 😀👍. Greetings from the UK 🇬🇧 .
Thank you so much Jacqueline! So lovely of you to say 🥰
Great use of space!!
Thank so much Michelle! I was determined to make everything fit!!! 😅
I’m moving into a micro studio in nyc next week. Thanks for all the great tips!!!
Oh I'm so glad!!! My Insta has more detailed stories that you might find helpful! Good luck with the move!!!
lovely the way she decorated
Thank you so much! I'm much more of a colour gal normally but I had to work with the space rather than fight it! 😅
I like the extra counter space drawer.
Thank you, its very useful
Wow! Really impressed with what you did with such a long and narrow space. Have seen similarly sized US apartments, but some people reject because they dont know what to do. BUT no toilet is a deal breaker. Lol.
Thank you!! I agree, no toilet would be a deal breaker for me too! That would be weird / gross & super inconvenient!
Pequeñito pero muy bien dercorado.Tiene muy buenas ideas...Gracias por mostrarlo.
My Spanish isn't great but I think this is good! Gracias 😁
Beautiful!
Thank you! Very lovely of you to say 😊
Love her. Love the apartment
Ah thank you so much! That's very sweet of you ☺
It's so cute,and well organized ♥️
Thanks so much!! Very kind 🙂
Hello, dear I love your apartment, you are very clever at making every space your own, My favourite is the space until the cabinet, would you mind explaining how you built, because that would every helpful in my kitchen as well, lovely tutorial.
Thanks a lots and best wishes!! ❤
Thank you! It's just a set of drawer runners attracted to a piece of IKEA counter top I had cut to size and then screwed into the cabinet carcass. It's the best thing & all tiny spaces should have one!!!
Thank You, for your quick response! u r so kind, may be you would consider a diy!!!
Your home is lovely an I don't know what your profession is but you should be a organization expert
Ah thanks Becca! That's a lovely compliment 😊
I love Nuxe oil too! And it looks beautiful on a display shelf. Where do you buy those nice bottles for your beauty products? And the label maker? I really want to try it in my bathroom too. Your bathroom is lovely.
Ah thanks so much Grace!!! isn't Nuxe the best!! the smell...so good. The products I use most are by a company called Trilogy and the packaging is lovely, so what you see on the shelf is mainly used products, that once they run out, I just wash and reuse the bottle / jar/ tub. I'm not sure where you live but we have a store in Sydney called Diaso and they sell similar bottles. The label maker I use is from Dymo, you want the one that is mechanical (ie not battery operated) if you google "Dymo Embossing Label maker" it will come up. I ordered mine online & a few of the letters didn't work, so if you can, buy it in a store, that way you can return it easier if there are any issues! I have a more detailed vid I made for IGTV for insta about the bathroom if you're on the gram that you might find useful! :)
You have a lot of storage space for such a tiny apt! Nicely organized! 👍🏼
Thanks so much! I tried to maximize every millimeter!!
@@thistinyspace And you succeeded quite grandly! It does not look or "feel" tiny, but seems luxurious! 👏👏
@@guambyguambelle1864 😀
Great use of space..Lovely home.
Thank you very much!!! I worked pretty hard at maximizing every millimeter so it's lovely that it's noticed! 😊
Great use of your space ...tfs
Thank you so much!!! Thanks very kind of you 😊
Thank you. Great video.
☘️🌝🌲
Thanks so much! :)
So nice I’m from the Philippines
Thank you!! 😊
I live in about 190sqft and its the tiniest and best home i lived in. It´s more relaxed not having so much stuff and also not having to worry about keeping your whole house tidy..since its just a quick clean lol. And because it´s small, it´s easier to keep organised. I live there with 3!! dogs.
Someone once said to me "how could you possibly live there" & my response was, I don't. I live in one of the greatest cities in the world, I "live" out there. I also grew to love the cosiness in winter, which you'll no doubt understand!. I believe people really don't need that much space as long as it's well designed. I personally have never understood the concept of paying for excess space you don't actually use!!
@@thistinyspace Oh yes agree. When i am looking for a new appartment, they never want to rent the small ones to me, because of my dogs. But even when i lived in a bigger home, the dogs are where i am, they are not running around through the house or need a spare bedroom haha. All they need is nice long walks and mental stimulation, so inside they are just relaxing. Plus i am lucky i have a nice backyard where we hang out when the weather is nice. I was glad i could rent this tiny place, i love it. A big space stresses me out, i just want a little cosy place. The documentary Minimalism on Netflix is also interesting to watch, if you havent already.
@@jazzjules-v1h the puppies are like the peoples! they want to have fun outside & then be cosy & chill! 🐶
Great design, practical and soo stylish, love it ❤️
😊
Lovely
Thanks so much Renee!
Congrats! It's a challenge, I know. I call my unit a BEDROOM, not really an apartment...But if you're practically just there to sleep and chill at night, it's... really more a bedroom... Cooking can be a challenge for smells and tiny 'friends"...
So true! My brother referred to as "a closet, not a flat" And it was hard to argue! It's amazing how you do just get used to it though, plus I found it did make me go out & about more.. as you say as long as you've got the necessities, that's all you really need. Thanks so much for stopping by 😉
So so clever
🥰
Love her
😊
It may be tiny but I love it!!!
Thanks so much! 😊
Your Sydney Apartment is the best "Paris" apartment. It goes to prove that 450 sq ft is not small at all. I wish I knew which suburb is your beautiful place in?
Thank you so much, yes I agree!! It's in the 'Inner West' so lots of bars, shops, restaurants & parks etc. Great area to live.
But you have a porch/terrace too, rt? To me that's worth far more than a larger apt. Your apt is a sweet place. Thanks!
Yes! I couldn't agree more!!! It's a total deal breaker for me, I couldn't live anywhere that didn't have some sort of outdoor space, as you say it's worth far more than having a larger internal space, its good for the soul!. thank you for the lovely compliments 😊
