If you want those kitchen benches that have shelving all the way through, I suggest taking a look at websites that sell professional kitchen/bakery furniture and such, though they’re usually stainless steel, but much cheaper than ikea usually ^^
I like the wood! Makes the studio warm … not so sterile!
In mi opinion the wood desk match perfect with the shelves. Congratulations with your new studio. Dean and you look very good.❤😊
heheh aww thank you so so much! 🌸
You could drape some greenery/Ivy down the middle of the gap in the cubes. Your space looks amazing! 🩷
Since you can access those shelves from the end, you could have the shelf side on the inside and be able to put a chair or stand at the open side, without knocking your knees on the shelves.
The wood gives it a higher end look to the space.
You can put in 2x2” in the stool area and put in shelf board. Two can fit under there. I can put it in there if you want. I just built my work bench and I’m just going to put in 2x2s in the supports and put a board on top. Done. 🙂
Keep the wood it looks so much nicer in the packing area 🥰
If it was me I’d do the white vinyl and then burden myself to paint all the shelves white as well. I like wood too but white is so much nicer in the studio sense 😀
I love the idea of the wood look; you have a nice mix of the white and wood; the extra skylights make sure a huge difference !
yes they make such a huge difference amirite?!
i prefer white. The wood shelves already have this warm color of wood as accent and it makes the room crowded with additional wood color tables. With white tables, you will balance it and makes the room pleasing to see even it is a busy area there. Also it removes the noise of seeing many stuffs which, in my opinion, might create visual stress in the fuiture with those wood and products colors combined. All the best!
I think the same thing! i think thats why I love white so much! 😍 thank you for sharing your thoughts!
The wood looks the best in the bright white room.
I understand the love of white tops, but those islands look excellent with your wood shelving! I have one of those islands in my studio and it’s so versatile…and warm! Great job! It’s so fun watching this come together and I love hearing your thoughts in process! 😊
heheh thank you so so much! Im so happy you enjoy watching it all come together heheh it is quite satisfying! 😍
White is brighter and cleaner looking ! 😊
Wood tops look great. Use mats or designate 1 table for your pics and just cover that table. Also, cut a piece of cardboard and wrap it in the white vinyl and lay it on top of the 1st layer of mugs as a floating shelf...then stack the 2nd layer of mugs on top of the board and you won't have the wobblies! 😂. Congrats it's all coming along nicely!! ❤
The wood makes the studio look so warm and cozy and inviting! It matches the shelves in the back perfectly and I feel like it fits the brand's overall aesthetic very well, especially since so many of your products have a nature theme. Real wood adds to it so much more nicely than stark white vinyl 🎉👏🎉Congrats on the new studio!🎉👏🎉
I did my liners too and I loved my results! Don't get lazy like me and at the end of the treatment you don't wear the retainer... Mine shifted back to week 11 on the top and 5 on the bottom... I about cried! That reminds me.. when you're done with the liner set, just clean them real good and put them back in the bag, just in case you're like me and let your teeth shift back. I was able to fix them again because I kept them.
Ohhh thats a great idea! What the heck! My friend did the same thing and warned me about the retainer! Ill try make it part of my routine at night! I can see how its easy to get out of the habit!
Personally i like the wood tables with the white bases. It gives some warmth to the space and goes so well with your shelving. If the whole table was wood, id feel differently about it. But honestly they look quite nice as they are!
The wood tops look really nice :) Maybe just get a large white mat for photography?
i love the wood. also you can put a bracket on the back of the white cubes to hold it together hopefully
You can put a layer of sturdy cardboard or mdf between the layers of mugs and the top layer will have its own sturdy base. The new studio is looking fantastic!
Your new studio is looking so good! I couldn’t picture it when it was empty, but it’s definitely looking like a katnipp studio now 😊
heheh its finally getting there! Just a few more bits and we still need to paint the katnipp wall heheh
I’m a fan of wood but not orange wood… so I white washed the desk I made and my Ivar units to make them lighter. Literally sanded lightly, mixed water with white emulsion and painted. So now I have very light wood in my office. Osmo oil white tint would be a good option for you too because it’s really durable and that would give you the lightened effect. Or lime wax xxx
Ohhhh I might try this I actually want to do this at home, maybe I can experiment on my home one then try it in the studio hehe
@@KatnippStudios You won't regret it. Let me know if you want some photos xxx
I like that color wood! It looks really good in there. I would want my personal space in white or light wood, but you know guys LOVE wood.😊🌸
It looks so nice and bright in there!!!💜
heheheh It really is, we love it hehe
Yaya! I reckon this is the best studio and layout u have had so far. Well done looks amazing
I am soooo glad they didn't have white vinyl; I was literally saying, "Noooooooooo!!!" when you were talking about covering up that lovely wood...LOL! That wood (unlike the Ikea cardboard...LOL!) is *real* and will stay nice forever, unlike the vinyl that would wear off. And along with the wood shelves to match it makes the room look cohesive and cozy while still being very light. It all looks wonderful! (Would the cubes match each other better if you turned one upside down? Or both of them sideways? Or separate them just enough to put something tall & narrow like a nice plant or something between?)
How exciting! Re. annoying gap between white storage cube ...... if stilll annoying you, might find turning one of the cubes through 180 degrees might remove your gap? Also, piles of mugs might be safer if you simply put a temporary, removable, sturdy piece of cardboard/ board across the upturned bottoms of the lower tier of mugs? Then remove or use as and when necessary! It's hard work moving, but the new studio is looking very organized!
I tried this and it didnt work weirdly hehe, heheh thank you so much! It is getting there slowly but surely heheh
You can get flat metal brackets from ikea to put in the top and bottom.
I love the real wood tabletops! Would be a shame to cover them up. If it was fake wood then white would be better. But the wood seems pretty light in that room!
I think the wood is perfect. It matches the shelving and the wicker light above. I love wood and white together! I have a mix of wood and white in my own studio.
get the white vinyl to cover the weird gap between the two storage cubes
To remove the labels off the tables place tape over it and pull it up the label should come up with the tape x
We ended up buying some glue remover! But this is a great idea 🥹🌸
I love the wood! I think it looks so much more inviting and cohesive, I think it will only strengthen your product photography, especially as a lot of you items are nature themed 🥰
Add white tape between the white cube shelves to hide the gap.
If you don’t like the wood look you could always paint it or put that peelable wall vinyl on it.
Aww look at your shirt! Gotta love a bit of Duffy and the gang! xx
heheheh YAYY! best purchase from Japan hehe
@KatnippStudios I thought as much. Glad you had a good time hun. The new studio looks fab too x
was hoping there wasnt white vinyl in your shop 😂 coz thats just so nice with wood !
I would move the little shelf over by Dean then move the white shelf over. Office is looking awesome ❤
I love touches of wood so much 😊
Wood looks nice!
The wood looks very good
Love the wood! Also not sure if it helps but I have the Ikea Eket cubes and they came with these like bracket things that go on the back so you can attach/keep them together more easily. Might help with the ‘seam’ down the middle!
Ohhh thank you for sharing this 🥹🌸
I love the space where you had the cute cittage inside i love it
heheh that was a pretty epic studio but the lighting was HORRIBLE it felt sooo dark all year around!
If you turned the islands around the other way, with the shelf parts now in the centre adjacent to each other, you could actually put stools under the islands to sit at while packing. Cos now the sitting under on stools paper would be facing out. I hope you can understand what I mean..it sort of sounds like double Dutch …
Ahhh! Yes I understand! That would be. Good idea! But we move around a lot while packing 🤔 we could trial this out tho!
I love the islands. Thats a ton of usefulness!
Oh my gosh... I can already imagine the cozy awesomeness during the holiday season around your shipping area! The warm wood and hanging twinkly lights in that area... Such Santa's (but really the elves lol) workshop vibes!! Yay
heheeh ahhhhhh thats my fave time in the studio too ~ heheh I would love that heheh
I love the new space, I think a cool video idea would be to get a professional organiser in to help design the space where it works best for everyone
You could buy some thicker trim to put around all the outside and in the middle where the shelves don’t quite meet
Great idea! Thank you so so much for the tip and suggestion hehe
Love the new studio!! For the cube shelves, you could try extra-long kitchen cabinet connectors. They're like double-sided screws that connect together in the middle. I used them for my cube shelves and they've been brilliant.
ohhh thank you so much for this tip! :O Thats a great idea!
I love the look of the wood!
The place is HUUUUGE! 🎉 And it looks wonderful. Is there no ‘B’ roll of you all threatening to kill each other if you move one more piece of furniture??? 😂😂😂
heheheh 🤣 Im suprised we remained relatively calm during this hahah I dont know how! They were surpisingly light to move hehe
I remember you putting pink vinyl on the desk in the OG OG Marske studio!
Love the wood tops (I also need to know where they’re from as I want one!)
Oh my gosh now that’s a real OG heheh 😂🌷👌 I remember I didn’t have enough pink to cover the table so I just left half white 😂🤣
Screw the kallax together before putting them over the desk 😉
XD I put a wood vinyl on my white desk top XD I think your studio looks reaaaaally good with the wooden desks, it makes me want to buy them! :D
Hehehe 😂 I love this it’s like role reversal haha 🥹🌸
If you switch the places of the two square storage cubes, I wonder if the gap would be any different :)
You could always white wash the wood tops to tone down the yellow. Should help with product photography.
This studio is so pretty! It’s coming along so well! 😍 Although I still miss the little cottage 🤣 The wood on the tables looks super nice, if you like white maybe you can use some big faux leather mouse mats (I have a pink one on my desk it looks super cute and it’s easy to clean) so that you can keep the wood accent but light up the area 🤔 for the gap between the shelves you can use a long screws with bolts on the back to keep it together you screw one side until they touch and it should stay close 🤔
hehe i miss the cottage too! But i prefer the beautiful light we get heheh thats a good diea about the big white mousemats hehe
@@KatnippStudios I agree the light is so beautiful there 😍💕
Should add an extra leg in the middle if each if the ikea tables under those cube shelves, it will support the middle and take away the gap. The heat press tables should get one too since you can see them sagging under the weight.
I love the wood! Go with it!
One think about Catherine, she’s gonna take a trip!😁 Work hard, play hard! So motivational!
heheh 😍 heheh work hard play hard indeed hehe
Put a piece of foam board or cardboard in between each layer of the mugs it will be more stable
17:19 yeah alot of the desk tops and shelves you get from ikea and cheaper stores are just cardboard inside, which is why they are cheap lol but a lot of artist buy them because we are broke lol
heheh true true hehe
Absolutely LOVE the layout of your new office. And the life-size characters are a brilliant idea ❤
heheheh It would be so cute to see a lifestyle gingie 😍
Put a simple white tape over the gap on the cube storage? It won't solve the problem, but it'll hide it 😅
Haha! That’s exactly what I was coming on here to say! Great minds think alike!
@@veroniquehogan heheh I might do that heheh at least it will be wuick and cheap hahah
I was going to suggest switching them around so that the one with the crooked edge is on the outer corner, i dont know if im explaining it properly or not 😂
P.S. I have one of those Ikea kitchen islands in my kitchen. It’s a tiny house with not much kitchen store. We keep canned goods and dry goods on those shelves. 😊 They are up to $495 now!!! I think we paid $399 6 years ago. Very sturdy.
woahh thats crazy! Thats so expensive now!
so much natural light!
The new studio looks amazing, so much brighter than the last one. And I do prefer the wood table, it looks so cohesive all together.
yayyy Ill keep it wood for now then hehe
Hey Catherine 🤗 loving your new studio space, I cannot wait to see it all come together ☺️ xxx
me too! Im looking forward to it finally all being ready!
I adore you Catherine. START PREPARING FOR AUTUMN haha.
heheheh I really need too Im so behind already omg 🤣
Use clear vinyl, I do love the new space.
Watching you in your beautiful studio from my garage/studio I’ve just moved into which doesn’t quite have the same aesthetic but I am working on it!
I love how you arranged the new space. Looking as beautiful as always. Can't wait to see the full studio tour. 💗
heheh oh my goodness thank you so so much ehhe
@@KatnippStudios 🥰💜
The shelves are looking SO BEAUTIFUL! It looks so nice with all the labels and everything is so neat and satisfying to look at. The studio is really coming together. I love watching your journey unfold!
heheeh YAYY thank you so much for following the journey hehe
The new studio is coming along so nicely! The wood looks amazing but I relate with prefering white 😂Would definitely want these vibes if I end up with my own studio
❤it! Surprised that all that furniture fits in the studio!
I jknow right! I think this studio is bigger than it looks haha it feels super spacious heeh
I started Invisalign almost two years ago with zero regrets!
eeek thats amazing, is it off now?! I can't wait to see the results already! Although It is hurting a little bit heheh
@@KatnippStudios I'm not done yet but I am almost to the end! yay! Having my bite corrected has be then absolute BEST part of it. The straight teeth are just an added plus. My electric tooth brush is my best friend when my teeth/ mouth is uncomfortable. My only tip is wear them a ton when they make your mouth uncomfortable. This will make the discomfort go away faster instead of lingering for longer. Also, plan your meals a head a bit to be softer food for the first day or two after changing aligners. 🙂
Definitely keep the wood tops! looks so good!
The new studio is so nice. I really like the setup you have I think it will be alot easier to pack orders. I just love watching your videos and seeing your business grow ❤
I love the wood tops!
I'm so glad you didn't cover that lovely wood in cheap white vinyl! I think it would be a waste. I think wood is more premium looking and also it's more natural and sustainable. Looks lovely.
Also the gap in those cubes looks like it could be to do with the table bowing underneath?
Love watching your videos 😊
I think it’s just because we have put it all together shoddily 🤣🤣🥲 hehe oopsie
@@KatnippStudios ooops! 🤣
I see you have a zebra thermal printer. I hope you get the freebie label rolls from Royal Mail. 😊 I’m sooo jealous that you went to Japan 😊
Yes we get the freebie rolls! 🥹🥹😊🌷 ehhee
We used a bracket to clamp them together at the back.
Love your new studio! The skylights are great! I love the wood table tops too.
Great vlog. You guys are both looking great btw!
Thank you so so much 😍
Love your new studio. Looks lovely with all the natural light and wooden-topped tables. ❤
thank you so so much 😍🌸
I love the new studio that would look amazing 🥰 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
The new studio is shaping up nicely! It's starting to look very "Katnippy"!
heheheh 😍 YAYY! katnippified hehe
I have the same cube ikea shelf but in black, I was wondering why it was so light 😭
You could use the non shelf gap to store long rolls of bubble wrap or wrapping paper etc?
oooo yes maybe we could!
I have that same little toaster light lol😂
Heheh it’s so cute isn’t it 😂
Have you tried to turn the cube storage to see if it sits straighter for you? 🥰
Or I was wondering if she switches/swaps the 2 cube shelves around (move right to left) if the edges would line up straighter.
I tried that! weirdly it didnt work I have no idea why, it got a gap in the top instead hahah
It is all looking so cute! Can't wait to see the finished studio ❤
youre so cute omg. "IM STRONG!"
🤣 hehehehe
Your new office is so nice! Very color coordinated and aesthetic, love it! Congrats on the new office space!! ❤❤
Have you ever thought of making your own version of Gacha? Little Katnipp stationary minis inside surprise gacha balls? I'd buy quite a few!
Omg YES YES YES this is a dream especially since visiting Japan! I also said to dean if I ever get a cafe/stationary shop I want a mini arcade with Katnipp plushies and gacha hehehe 🥹💕
Just missing a Plumbob for your Sim moments heehee
heheh 🤣
why you moved`? like the new office. like your stuff a lot
We needed a bigger brighter space hehe
Where do you get your printout backdrops from for photos? If you don’t mind me asking please 🥰
I print them myself orrrr I get them printed at printed.com
@@KatnippStudios thank you lovely xx
I haven’t been able to watch Katnipp videos for ages. I listen though. The old camera footage I could watch and be fine but since the upgraded camera I get so dizzy :(
oH NOOO, i think I may have been editing everything on the wrong settings, making the footage looking chopping Im going to experiment this week! iM SO SADD I dont know why its doing thiiissss
Get a few stools and make a coffee spot x
I love the wooden tops but for a workspace, the white vinyl would protect it x
