    12:10 if this is a ikea billy shelf, they do doors for the little cubby holes, imo doors would provide for better access to the stuff inside than baskets. Less whimsical though ☺️

    an idea for sarahs blank wall problem: you could diy a beaded curtain with any design you want ( tutorials on youtube ) or maybe some kind of curtain/ fabric/ macrame art/ wall rug with a pretty print or image on it. then put up a steel string curtain rod ( slides really smooth ) so you can push it really easy out of the way when you use the projector. and you can make it as short or long as you want :D

  • @CrimsonVipera
    @CrimsonVipera Час назад +1

    For the projektor wall - get a picture rail or a curtain rod/track. If you are renting and can't drill, use command strips to attache it (extra strength). Then you can use fishing line and hooks to hang anything you want. If you use a curtain track and tapestries, you can literally just pull it to the side without taking it off. But you could also put up a framed gallery wall that way

    for context, the "utility room" is not common in apartements in Eastern Europe. That's a very common thing there. Either in the balcony, kitchen, close to the exterior wall to be able to connect it to the outside unit

    I have one of those hemnes shoe cabinets. I have used it to store shoes, root vegetables, gardening supplies, and most recently, paperwork. The only thing I wouldn’t recommend it for is the root vegetables. I thought the holes on the back of the tilt-out parts would be sufficient airflow, but it really was not. I do think with the right containers you could use it for more general pantry storage. Canned goods would be kinda annoying tho. It would definitely work for storing table linens!

    I havent really heard of adding sand to you flooring to add grip but i have heard of adding polybeads to your floor paint to add grip. Im not sure how that would work with your epoxy finished floor. I work in a paint store and the epoxy product we sell for floors you would have to prep the floors properly first and essentially redo your floors. Also just because you hire a professional doesnt mean they know what they are doing or understand the product they are using! I see it all the time!!

    It's quite common for stairwells in German/Austrian/Switzerland houses and apartment buildings: to have tiled floors. Because they are so easy to clean. Plus during the Autumn & Winter season you bring so much snow (melt water) into the home.
    And you will always take your snowboots, shoes off in these stairwell/hallways and you put your (own or offered) warm house shoes/slippers on.✌🏻😊

    The one where she is trying to hide the utility concerns, maybe she could thrift an armoire from a charity shop for cheap so taking the back off wouldn’t hurt so much, attach to the wall and then paint it if desired.

    100000000000000% whimsical is the word I think of when thinking fairies, toadstool mushrooms, woodland. It's also the word I would give to the feeling that some rooms in 90s/00s movies give off (e.g. Penelope, Harriet the Spy). I have been trying to find a word to better fit the aesthetics of those two movies and have yet to find one.

      You know, I was looking down the comments to see if anyone else was thinking this, it surprises me that more people aren't. They aren't doing many actual DIYS anymore, they are doing a lot of AI, and online submissions where they get rendered images, and tell the people how to do it themselves. It feels like they don't actually want to make anything themselves anymore, and also there team has grown quite a bit (obviously minus Rachael) yet they are coming out with significantly less content then they were before.

I really liked the thrift flip/dupe series too but they seem very few and far between. It's disappointing.
