I'm in New Zealand on the opposite edge of the Pacific plate and I've got a great tip: get some earthquake wax aka museum wax. It's the stuff museums use to secure irreplaceable objects in case of earthquake. It's not permanent and non sticky but boy does it grip. Things are secure from a big shake but still easy enough to detach when you want to move stuff around. I've got a 9 foot shelf in my living room and everything is earthquake waxed into place.
I think that's pretty standard in California that everyone has everything waxed in place. Where I live we don't have earthquakes, but there's a very large military installation very nearby and I have silicone dots on the backs of my artwork, one in each corner, to help keep them from moving around on the walls. And anything on a shelf will walk off if not waxed in place. There are so many planes and helicopters, including the huge transport ones, flying over and when they train, the mortars really shake things up!
That confused me that she removed the glasses from the bar cart and randomly put them on the shelf, they were the only thing that seems to actually fit for a bar cart.
This seems to be such a common apartment layout so I truly think this could help inspire SO many people. It also shows how much you can do without changing the wall color and flooring due to renting. Beautiful MaCenna!! The divider turned out great and I love the warmth it brings. I do wish that you showed us the "after" in more of a wide angle so i could see the completed look all at once just like the "before" footage. I know its picky, but it's just so satisfying😂!! What an awesome makeover!!!!
Such a brillilant transformation Macenna! The apartment looked a little cold before with so much empty space in the middle. You've totally transformed it and given your friends such a warm, cosy, beautifully curated space . This is what good design is all about - even though this is not your own particular style, you've obviously taken your friends taste into consideration and given them a wonderful home.
MaCenna - your use of color and vintage decor elements brings this space to LIFE! I so love the spaces you create with such warmth. And as I always comment…pure class. It’s so good!
MaCenna, absolutely gorgeous. The shelf divider belongs in Architectural Digest. Also, big shoutout to Romeo for all his help. It's perfect that you released this video on Halloween, because you magically turned an apartment into a home.🧡🎃🌺😀
This is gorgeous! You've transformed this space into one that looks curated rather than purchased from the same store. The Article lamps are gorgeous. I need them now! The Klimt was the perfect choice for the dining area. Successful combination of elegant and functional. Love!
I got married in 1959 so all my furniture was the real mid century modern. Your design is spot on My end tables were walnut and my bedroom set was similar to the sideboard. I also had a bar cart I did not have the Sputnik chandelier though. I had pink in my kitchen. Couch was creamy tan with straight lines
What a keen eye, a little luck & a great price can do for a room. Finding that Klimt print at the flea was a game changer. The way you pulled it all together is stunning, just wow!
MaCenna, your eye is impeccable. I love the whole thing, but the dining area is my favorite. I can see it as the setting for dinner parties, holidays or a heart -to-heart over a cup of tea between two good friends.
I love that you explain your reasoning for picking each and every piece. It really helps me understand more when it comes to designing my own spaces! You're amazing, MaCenna.
@@lauramitchell6725 actually she said the surname wrong, twice and then said its “man hugging a woman”. I’m truly shocked, because it’s one of the most famous paintings in the world I didn’t know people, who do not know the name of this painting do exist )))))
Congrats for creating a whole new lifestyle for your friends!! This room will, literally, change their lives!!! Like how light everything even felt even though there were really nice pops of color. Nothing in the room felt overwhelming and all pieces were related to one another as if they were from the same family but had their own separate story. Good job!!!
It’s always nice to see how your comfort zone trickled in seamlessly into other areas of interior design. Cuz we obviously know you’re a master in your French core vintage element, so seeing you as a creative in another area is definitely one for the portfolio I loved it!
Designing and curating pieces for ourselves is a labour of love, but it’s so creatively stimulating to design something for someone else, in their style, and flawlessly execute it.Great work! 😊 The apartment looks so alive now!
I'm completely blown away by what you accomplished in this space, MaCenna! I'm a long-time viewer and admittedly not much of a commenter-but I have to say something about this transformation. The color palette is so warm and comforting while still feeling unexpected and unique. The space reads midcentury modern without feeling like you're in a midcentury showroom. It's a true testament to your hardworking and talent that you were able to create such an amazing space for your friend in a style that you yourself don't really lean to anymore. I'm constantly in awe of what you create.
I sure hope it’s alright for me to say I’m so dang proud of you @xomacenna ! I know you were totally thinking of your friends style and it shows… so beautifully 💕
What a great result! The round tables in the dining and living room really help to breakup those rectangular room and furniture shapes. And the layout works perfectly in this space
You did SUCH a great job elevating this space!! The textures, colors, and small decor pieces all blend together so beautifully!! I never would have thought of moving the dining room and adding that bookshelf divider, either. Brilliant choices!! 👏
I've got to say, I've had couch for ages and was starting to feel the springs. Replaced the seat cushion foam and it's like a brand new couch for a fra tion of the price of a new couch and saved it from the landfill.
Girl, you did an absolutely awesome job! It’s not my personal style, but you nailed it with the perfect mix of colors and textural details. The room divider shelving wall just made it all come together perfectly! The space actually ends up appearing larger, yet with cozier zones. Bravo!😊
My mom and I...finally...were able to watch your videos together as she is visiting from Michigan!! We enjoy watching the relationship between you and your mom. Amazing job with the apartment and so nice to have Romeo's help and support. Wishing the best for both of you. Take care of each other. Excited to see what's coming up next! We hope you had an amazing Halloween!!! 🎃🍂🍬
Your creativity is outstanding!!! The diy project is perfect for their space !! How the color pallette marry one-another. JUST WONDERFUL MACENNA! I'm gobsmacked!!!
Love love love all the color! MaCenna, what you’re talking about with the different shades of pink is called using various tints, tones, and shades of the color. It’s great color theory, and if anyone is curious on how to do this and make sure it matches: tint is when you add white to a color, tone is when you add gray, and shade is when you add black. If you’re introducing color into your space, I definitely recommend playing around on the color wheel so you can bring in more tints, tones, and shades into your color scheme to make it more dynamic, regardless of whether you want to go a monochromatic route or not! But of course, if using the exact same hue is your jam, go for it!! YOUR space should make YOU happy ☺️
Oh MaCenna, you definitely pulled it off. I love your style & try my best to include your tips in my own home 💚 your friend is very lucky to have your help!
Love your diy divider. It's fabulous. Consider a plant stand for smaller floor plants. It would add the height and better dimension needed in that corner. Great design. Better function in the apartment overall. Thank you for bringing more light into a once dreary space.
Ohhhhhh MaCenna you are a genius, I love it all🤩you constantly amaze me with what you can conceive and pull together in such a short time, your shelf DIY was one of my favorite things so far. MCM has become so expensive, it has always been one of my favorite styles and the pieces you found were great👍👏👏👏👏👏👏💖🙏
I was genuinely impressed by the dramatic change in this apartment's atmosphere. The design choices and the detailed explanations throughout the video made it feel like a personalized guide to injecting life and style into any living space.
You are something else.. As a little girl, I would watch my Dad doing his blue prints for the home he was building... I mean...what? Seemed amazing to me.. You remind me of that.. I am now 71...still amazed❤ Fabulous room...love❤
Congratulations MaCenna on a wonderful job for your friend. I love how the room divider turned out. You are so clever and such an inspiration to us all. Happy Halloween to you and Romeo. 😘💕👻🎃🇦🇺
I rarely comment but I couldn’t resist. The shelf space divider is my favourite piece of all of the makeover. It stands out and is such a showstopper!!! Amazing job to both of you 😍
Woo this looks so good. A beautiful blend of new and old. Anyone else wish we got to see the work space/gym? My only worry would have to be stuck in the dark corner all work day.
What a beautiful, functional space you created for them! I absolutely love the DIY piece you designed, built and installed. It is so perfect! MCM isn't my style, either, but I can appreciate good MCM design. This is pretty and practical and big on understated wow factor - thats the best kind! Your friend and her roommate must be so happy with that space. Please let us know what they decide to do about the light in the living room. That really is just too low (and a tad oversized) for the room. I can understand why you'd want to put it there and it's a shame the ceiling isn't taller.
This is an AMAZING makeover! I love the way you use small,simple pieces that give an understated artsy vibe. So many would have chosen very large art, furniture, etc and really lost the lovely size and openness of the actual room. The divider was a TRIUMPH! 👏👏👏👏🌹
We bought a table exactly the same when we were married in 1967. Only difference it was in teak. The chairs were very comfy and the chair backs fitted under the table top.
How funny, my son has the same coffee table, side table & dining room table! They are beautiful tables. Great job, MaCenna! You captured the MCM vibe beautifully! 😊
Spectacular makeover MaCenna! You managed to not overdo the MCM. Just the right touches. Romeo was great as the "muscle" so thanks to him as well. I think they liked it! And the Klimt is perfect!
Hi MaCenna the living room dining room area is beautiful the Shelf is your signature you can start designing and making those and selling them such a talent❤❤❤❤❤😊
Loved how warm the space got after adding all of the colors. The shelf is such a great idea, not surprised you were able to build it but still, girl you’re awesome ❤
Oh I loved that you said the thing about the couch not beeing on a wall. I learned some stuff about living psychology and that is one thing mentioned there as well
Your wall unit is unbelievably brilliant McCenna. I’ve never seen anything so like that you are utterly amazing and just to make something for all of the pretty things is the best 🥰😅
Love love LOVE this makeover! 😍 only thing I would have want to see more of, is the reaction of the homeowner 🙈 I love to see the apriciation and joy they get when they see the result
That is a really beautiful and warm home now, cohesive and cosy. And your creation, the brilliant divider! 😳👍 Bravo Macenna, MCM was the style when I was a young wife and you've captured it perfectly. I'd be so comfortable in the space, just wow! 🤗🥰 Scrumptious. 💕
I noticed the design on the end-middle of the shelving unit is open and has some decorative framing maybe. I don’t remember seeing that talked about or how you put it together. Would love to know more about that function and design. The space really came together! You should be so proud!
I just can't put a fresh rug down on top of carpet that hasn't been vacuumed! Is it just me? 😂 MaCenna, seeing you make over this room was SO FUN. Your creativity and design just really made it glow!
I was wondering if she used any kind of carpet tape or pad. An area rug placed on top of carpet “walks” when someone walks over it. It will keep shifting and bunching. Just curious.
I did a similar thing in our living room with a divider. It was way too long and we wanted our sofa closer to the TV so we used a 3rd of the space as the living area, put my Expedict shelves, or whatever the new one is called, from Ikea behind the sofa. and used the rest of the space as my office space. Works well and feels cosy. I just love that you went that extra DIY mile and built your own! Once you perfect the plans you should definitely sell them or at least work with a furniture store to sell your own range :) Also, I hope you don't mind but I am so into miniatures atm and my first design is going to be your cottage :)
So lovely to see the extension cord DIY explained so succinctly!! I feel like it's worth adding that *your extension cable also has one hot and one neutral wire,* and it is ESSENTIAL for safety to make sure the right cords are matched when you rewire your scone to plug in :)
Such a transformation omg!! I would love to have seen those hanging blinds plucked off and a new set of curtains though! Coming from someone who has lived in an apartment most of my life, that always makes a world of a difference!
Never realized how easy it would be to turn a ceiling fixture into a plug in!!! I am so doing this in my livingroom where there is no overhead lighting!! Genius!
Thanks for this!!ni love watching all your personal spaces come to life! My personal style is mostly Mid Century Modern and I haven’t come across many RUclips videos on it, so this was so special to see you do!

I use it to keep my picture frames straight!
Hehe we do this to keep my cats from knocking things too.
we have that in California. Its good stuff
I love that MaCenna’s version of a bar cart is a tea tray 😂
Right~~ 😂😂
That confused me that she removed the glasses from the bar cart and randomly put them on the shelf, they were the only thing that seems to actually fit for a bar cart.
😂😂❤ love her
Didn't she say they wanted to get rid of it and she wanted it to stay but repurposed?

circular tables should be used more often! There's something so warm and friendly about them
I love that you explain your reasoning for picking each and every piece. It really helps me understand more when it comes to designing my own spaces! You're amazing, MaCenna.
The Gustav Klimt piece is a stunner. It’s called “The Kiss” 💋

Klimt is my absolute favorite artist!
*Outstanding Use of Space* . Moving the Dining area made so much sense and the Chef's Kiss on the Room Divider.....so Awesome!
The living room wall with the Gustav picture. My favorite ❤
With the cheap IKEA repro of a trite overused mass production piece? Wow
I rarely comment but I couldn’t resist. The shelf space divider is my favourite piece of all of the makeover. It stands out and is such a showstopper!!! Amazing job to both of you 😍
Very warm and sophisticated, more “adult” in a lovely way! 😊
You turned a somewhat " blah" space in to a totally WOW space!! LOVE the shelving unit you created❤

You're have an amazing talent. You took a ho-hum apartment and created a warm cozy home out of it.
There are tapered candles with ledlights they'd be perfect for those spaces.
Great results !!!
Good to see that you're comfortable working with a style so different from your own.❤
I love the wooden wall with the couch ❤
Wow MaCenna, the room is beautiful. The room divider is epic!
What a warm inviting space you’ve created! Great job, MaCenna!❤

I agree 👍
I was wondering if she used any kind of carpet tape or pad. An area rug placed on top of carpet “walks” when someone walks over it. It will keep shifting and bunching. Just curious.

Wonderful job! Loved watching her reaction to the reveal, but also yours!!❤
It came together so well. Very nicely decorated, warm and welcoming!☺😃
