I too remember the joy and excitement of rearranging my bedroom as a teenager!! The one thing I had control over 😅
Haha, exactly! It’s still just as fun!🙌🏻
Yesssss, me too, nearly every quarter I rearranged my room when I was a Teen.
@@Alexandra-dh9kl I used to drive my parents crazy doing that, i once painted my room 5 different colours, they were not happy, surprising i'm a minimalist now!! lol!
I still do this often
Yes. My teen did that. And scratched the newly restored wooden floor. Deeeeep scratch. 😓
I’m not being dramatic but seeing your videos uploaded literally makes my day, you help me decompress, and feel comfortable & proud of my minimalist space. My husband always says “you change or move everything so frequently “ and your video just reminded me that I’ve been doing this since I was a kid. It’s so fun!!
I’m so happy you enjoy them!
Hello Benita! I want to congratulate you for the way in which you manage to motivate and encourage the public through your videos. The simplicity that you show us in your daily life, conveys peace and the feeling that we don't need much to have comfort and peace. Thank you and keep up this fantastic task!!
A kiss from Portugal😉
Thank you so much!😊
Well said
It’s funny how many of us loved to rearrange our rooms as teenagers! I did this it as well a number of times over the years. It always seems to bring a fresh new feeling to the room.
I know, so many have the same memory of constant rearranging! I love that!
I was lucky to be able to live in all three bedrooms in my parents house. I started as a kid in the smallest one. Then I switched to the parents bedroom when my parents decided to sleep separate because my Dad was a snorer and when they decided to sleep in their bedroom again, I moved to the third bedroom which stayed my room even when I moved out and just visited my parents. It was always an adventure to be able to plan everything. To this day I draw a plan of my room on paper and cut out my furniture in the right scale and move them around to find the best place for them. 😉
Lucky you, that must have been so much fun!
I love Miss Mini coming to check your work when you're making the slip covers. She always needs to make sure you're doing the best work. :)
I can totally relate with switching things up. It's surprising interesting to see how excited I get when I move to my newly arranged home 😂
So much fun rearranging!🙌🏻
My love of interior design also started with rearranging my bedroom and continues today as I regularly move things to change the energy of the room. Thank you for the great video inspo!
Such a simple way to switch things up!🙌🏻
Hello Benita! 😀 Refreshing content - as a child, I loved rearranging my bedroom, my mom was so helpful and encouraged me to arrange it the way I liked it and choose colors I liked - I always felt so content and happy in my room, reading or listening to music. I do move our plants around (I like to give them equal sun exposure - kind of like not favoring a child - equal love for all of them❤). I really wish I could sew - this always seems like such a cost-effective way to change anything in your home. I should take a class 😀 For people who find it easy to sew, I am so envious - that hasn't been my experience. Decluttering - this is my number one favorite way to refresh - I just need to keep reminding myself not to repurchase. 😃 Bonus looks so happy, until your next video enjoy your week!🌸🌺🌸
Equal love for all the plants! I love it!🙌🏻🌿🙌🏻
Tracey Loves - Skincare Lovely comment. Thanks for sharing.
Want to sew? Just watch utube . There are lots of beginner posts.
Mini is so cute!! That little strech 😍😍
She’s my tiny sweetie 😊
This is exactly what I do when I rearrange the furniture and switching books and ornaments. Zero spending and a refreshed room
I used to change my furniture around in my bedroom every few months as a teen. It made my mother crazy, lol. I never saw such an easy way to make a slip cover. Brilliant!
It never crossed my mind to cut some pretty weeds off my garden lawn and put them in a vase ! Love that idea !
Your slipcover turned out amazing! I have an ottoman that needs a slipcover and have gotten as far as purchasing fabric. You have given me confidence that I can do it. I wish I could move furniture but am pretty restricted because of windows and door placement, and space limitations. It was my favorite thing as a kid to move my bedroom around!
So much fun! And you can totally create a cover for that!
Yes! The slip cover was terrific!
Busy adding wool textures to my home to make it cosy for winter in New Zealand. We don't get snow and it's not too cold but the endless wet days call for warm textures and colours.
Your kitty doing yoga stretches while you were painting! 😂❤️
She’s such a little ballerini 😊
I love the slipcover for the living room sofa. Always a nice clean look for the summer.
Your home is cool, calm, and collected, just like you. Your ideas are helpful and enjoyable. Great video. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much for watching!
What a great video! I loved the ideas! I really enjoyed watching. I never miss one! Thanks for your work and content.☺️🌸
I remember loving moving my bed from one corner to another in my bedroom when I was living with my parents :) !!! But in my "adult" apartment, nothing can be really changed in any of the rooms ^^!!! besides cleaning & decluttering from time to time lol :D
Made a couple videos on that!!
Love how kitty comes in so nonchalantly! A bit of excitement in an otherwise soothing video! Will she (?) or won't she walk across the painting? The back leg stretch like 'oh don't mind me! I was holding my breath! 😊
Hello Benita, you are so talented! I like your ideas of "not spending money", it is eco-friendly and giving us a chance to feel and enjoy what is around us. Thanks you for all the creative tips. p.s. the handmade sofa cover and the painting are absolutely amazing, I love it!
Your videos are interesting and soothing at the same time. I smile each time I see your cats - Bonus snoozing on your DVD player and the other doing her ballerina stretches are you painted were delightful ! My 17yo cat sleeps much of the day now but can still surprise me with short bursts of 'hunting' me or imaginary prey 😻 Hi from Australia 🇦🇺 xx
The slip cover is perfect! I just looked at my old old love seat and realized how I could do it! Thank you
Oh how I laughed at Bonus' tail in the beginning and then "catio"... another Simply wonderful. video. Happy Spring!
Glad you enjoyed it!🦁
I love how the beginning of the video opens with your cat’s tail floating across the bottom of the screen! At first I thought it was as a shadow of something, then the cat’s butt showed...then the eyes...😂😂😂
I, too, like to rearrange my tiny condo about every 6 months! It makes everything fresh and new! Your place looked great after your “refresh” 😊. I enjoy your creativity woven into practicality. Thank you for your videos. I love them.
Thank you, I’m so happy you enjoy them!
Rearranging furniture, shopping the house, changing decor by season...these are all things I love too! Thank you for the lovely inspiration. I hadn't thought about changing the way I arrange our bedding. Good idea! Now, I'm in the mood to rearrange. :)
Love the way the slip cover turned out for the sofa! You made it look super easy to make!
Happy Tuesday Benita!
You should try it, it’s not hard at all!
@@BenitaLarsson I’ll give it a go if I get my hands on a sewing machine! I feel like it would be fun once you get the hang of it!
Wow, the slipcover solution is genius!
Kitty leg stretch was the highlight. Easy ideas, thank you!
Love how curious your cat is 🥰😍
Into everything! 😅
there is no limit to your talents, you can even make your own slip covers, very impressive!
They really are quite simple to make!😊
I am so glad that your cat decided to pitch in with the measurements 😂
I know, am I not the luckiest?🤣
@@BenitaLarsson indeed you are!
I love the challenge of rearranging my space😊
Oh I needed this, as it's literally free!!!
You're very brave painting a canvas with your kitty strolling around. 🙂 🐾
Haha, yes that would have been fun🤣
👋 i hope you're safe over there? I hope this year brings happiness prosperity love and peace 💞❤️🕊️🕊️ all over the world 🙏🌍
I'm originally from Canada currently living in Key West Florida☀️☀️☀️☀️and you where are you from if i may ask?💭💭
Thanks for the ideas !
Beautiful. Thank you
Delighted to hear Trinity College Dublin mentioned. We live in Ireland and our son studied and works there. I'll buy his book. I've learned so much from you, thank you.
Wow! My son spent a month in Dublin a few years ago and loved it there!
Very relaxing video! Thank you!
Your sofa looks amazing with your homemade slipcovers! Nice job!
That was so calming. Thank you
Benita, so good to see your site. Your aptm't looks wonderful. I have been praying for you re your cancer & I'm thinking you may be better or maybe it's even gone. Hoping the best. Be back soon. Happy spring to you from Seatle/WA/USA. GBYou
Lovely ideas. Thanks Benita 🖤
Love the sofa cover, great!
I love your channel. So many great ideas.
Great ideas for spring&summer!!!👍👍👏👏👏
Thank you
Everything looks great Benita
Enjoy the season
I chose home care nursing because of the benefits of walking! Especially now that flowers and trees are coming back to life and the warm summer breeze is imminent. Oh you mentioned Finland! That's where I live
Isn’t it the best!?👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you!!!!
Great job on the sofa slipcover-nice ideas!
How wonderful and simple and elegant!!!
I love your swivel chairs.
Very beautiful and creative.
You are so lucky that you can switch things around, I live in a loft with very designated areas and it would be impossible to change furniture around.........I so wish I could....I do however change cushions and throws and although I face North I am able to fill my windowsill with geraniums that remain there all year round and at least is something green and real and often I still have blooms until November......great ideas as always..................Donna in Toronto
I have a bed along two walls but sometimes I like the pillows arranged along the lengthy side against the wall instead of at the head or foot of the bed.
What a wonderful video! I wrote it all down, and am creating my to-do list!
Love the idea of the slipcover change !!! 🌷
I really love the slipcover. ❤️❤️❤️
What a nice little refresh 😊. The slipcover is lovely.
I love your very neat and clean room. It is now full of summer vibes!
loved this video, I like each one of your videos because they are a treat!
Happy Tuesday!!!😁 I loved the idea of placing cotton towels underneath something heavy to easily move it around without scratching the wood floors. Excellent!🥰👍🏾
Makes it much easier to shift!😀
A flipped over rug (if its bottom is rubberized) also works as a slide helper.
I loved the way you featured thd sliping covers, and the whole result
🌼🙏
Υπέροχη όπως Πάντα!
First off I love the cotton wash cloth under the furniture tip, I get so fed up watching people in property videos just dragging furniture around wooden or laminate floors with no protection and alot of them are encouraging their viewers to watch them for interior design tips and advice!!!!
Eeek, I can see the scratches 😅
I love all the changes and the super idea for the sofa 👏👏. Thank you Benita 🌻!
Hi Benita, I loved this video. You always inspire me, I absolutely love spending time with you. Thank you. 🌷
Danke Benita, durch Dich lebe ich auch minimalistisch und liebe es😊👍👍👍
I'm so happy if you were inspired by my videos!
Nice ideas, love you Benita ♥️
I love the way you made changes without buying more ❤️
Such great ideas! I've found your vlog today and I'll keep following your videos as I'm trying to learn more about minimalist life.
Wow ! Sei Bravissima
Benita , I totally love your videos ! I’m so like you ......Love being minimal , organised ! We recently moved house and your tips have helped me enormously 😁Thank you Benita ! Have a lovely day 🌻
I love the little daffodils, just so dainty. Ahh, and the great cat stretch 😊 I always love your content, thank you 🌻
I am fascinated by your not owning a vehicle and bye how mass transit and walking you are able to do everything you need to. In the United States we do not have a very good mass transportation system. But I'd like to know more about the simplicity of not owning a car and the health benefits of walking and maybe by learning how things are in Sweden I can think of ideas to suggest to local politicians where we might begin to make positive changes here in the United States
I absolutely adore your videos 💚
And, just like that you made a slipcover!! I had no idea it could be done so easily. Great tips.
I love this! Thank you for these ideas!
So happy you enjoyed it!😊
I so agree changing furniture around gives a different style of your home ... Well done love the ideas ...
So much fun to walk into the “new” room!🙌🏻
@@BenitaLarsson yes...feels fresh and new styling... 🙂👍
I love the ideas. And I too change things around from room to room... definitely looks different and a change in style.. thank you for sharing. 🙂👍 Best regards from the UK..
That slipcover came out so well. Looks great and really fresh.
Love your idea for the slip covers!!
I do love how they turned out!
Lovely video. I love your dear cats. 🌷
Loved seeing your instant artwork. I purchased some different sized canvases with the same idea of painting and then repainting to refresh. Or possible covering some with bright fabric prints.
*D'abord merci pour la vidéo ! J'aime bien le nouveel emplacement du lit 👍👌*
*J'ai la manie de bouger tout le temps les meubles dans chaque pièce et d'une pièce à une autre 🤗 mais cette habitude est trop dure pour mon corps surtout les bras et le dos.. Maintenant, je vis presque sans meubles Quelle libération !*
Some of the furniture is so heavy! Having less makes it easier 😊
Very impressed by your sewing skills! You are artistic and practical, love this video!
I love the slipcover!!! I can't never find anything that i like at the store!!! I'm new at sewing but i would like to give it a try!
This was incredible! Thank you so much for the tutorial on slip covers! Thank you!
I'm so glad you found it useful!
Love how your cat does that walk in the end 😂
Really good job with the sofa! 👍
Thank you so much Benita. I always look forward to a new video from you! I have learnt so much!
I’m so happy if you’re inspired to try something after watching!
Thank you very much :)
Great ideas. I also like to shop my own house and garden shed to come up with new/repurposed items. I'm like you, a spring reset is particularly refreshing. Nice work on the painting 😀.
Thank you so much!
I love it!!! So nice
Thanks! Perfect timing as I want to change some things in the living room around :)
Such a refreshing quick fix!🌿
Beautiful! Thank you
So glad you enjoyed it!
Benita, what a fun video. You had so many good ideas. Love the new painting you created.
Also the changes from winter to summer. Love the green.
Cheers
Thank you, I’m glad you enjoyed it!
