God, the chill energy of these videos sends me to such a peaceful place. I want to live a life like that...lol, my life sucks. Also, I love that it's filmed like a "slice of life" indie movie, I dig it. And James dropping his phone 3 stories is hilarious....of course that would happen to him, lol.
Hi, Leigh. One of the things I've done to unify a cluttery space is to find a cool piece of fabric, and attach it to the top of the shelf unit. It could be on velcro for easy removal, then it hides the small items, and adds a decorative element to the room. Yellow and white stripes for instance.
I love to see studio organization with my early access eyes because I will finally have my own studio space later this year! It's really inspiring. We also have a lot of bare wood looks in our house (with my partner) but I'll be free to use colorful paint in my studio heheh. I like the wood in combination with colors :) Super trendy lol. Also vacation looked nice and relaxing, and the otters were so cute! My fav vacation spot is anywhere with nice nature and where we can take a lot of walks.
"Otter watching my butt off" is a vibe 😂 I am that way anytime I see cute animals, looking around to make sure everyone is experiencing the cuteness I'm witnessing haha. Love it 🥰
Favourite vacation so far for me has been to Taipei, Taiwan in 2019. Love how clean it is, how easy it is to commute via their public transportation especially their trains. Took their bullet train for the first time ever and it was such an amazing experience. Love the laid-back and super chill vibes the city offers . I would love to visit again if I have the opportunity in the future. Hope you had a great holiday Leigh!! Welcome back 😘😘
Leigh, I totally agree with what you said about moving into a new space, and getting overwhelemed as it gets filled up. I moved into my first self rented apartment in Feb 2020, and spent a few months with nothing as the pandemic elevated.. I felt so peaceful in the wide open space. I got a couch, and was happy and also annoyed that it took up so much of the free floor space, even though it was much more comfortable and was exactly what I had wanted. Once I got settled, I forgot that open space and felt better in the space I created. I hope that after a while, the new vibe will feel normal and comfortable to you :)
OTTERS ahhhhhhhhhhh ! this vlog was like a ghibli movie 🥺 so peaceful and lovely and cinematic slice of life vibes. I love the studio organization, I just put up some new shelves and I'm on the same struggle of useful storage and more shelf space vs things looking cluttery. ps my fave vacay was my 1 week study abroad in Paris, mostly the parts when I went on walks with a friend by ourselves lol. but also driving from ohio to vermont in june was lovely.
Glad you got to go on vacation. I love your studio! Always looks amazing. My favorite vacation was going to Ireland, the landscape was incredible there and their gardens are amazing.
one reason why I enjoy your vlogs so much is because how beautiful the shots are (it really brings my mind to peace), but this one was truly a gosh dang cinematic masterpiece. kept thinking throughout watching the video, AHH I wanna draw this scene!!! :,D the vibes are on POINT! so happy you decided to capture some moments from this trip cuz I luv this video to death. has to be one of my favs from you!
Not really a vacation spot since I went there for art school and dropped out after 2 years, but I really love going to Moscow, ID. Super pretty up there and it always feels like I’m walking around a magical and artsy small town that holds a whole bunch of secrets. 🥰
i freaking looooved the envelopes!! the bright neon green is definitely a plus, and also... what a heck with your amazingly beautiful fits!!!! like, every clip i was thriving for the outfits, my favorite one: the gridded b&w dress, absolutely gorgeous, your style is something that i'm gonna steal with no shame hahahahah. So glad you had (finally) a nice vacation.
im watching this at a good time because ive just moved home from being abroad for a few months, and i need to set up a workspace while also decluttering old things and unpacking new things so theres a lot lol. I'm really feeling the raw wood look atm in my own space and i love how you're balancing it with colour, im trying to do the same but with some darker pieces because my desk is one big black monolith. The vacation looked so beautiful as well, if I ever make it to the US i would love to visit that place
Ice cream, puzzles and otters!??!? OH MY🙊💖Just rewatched the vid, i feel like i went on a vacation too from this vid uwu cinematography leigh is coming thruuu~ Australia is my fave vacation place, it was so pretty, everyone was fit and tan, like wow. Goals
My favorite vacation spots are any where on 30A in Florida and Deep Creek in Bryson City, NC. I liked the change in format for this video. The footage was absolutely gorgeous! I also just did a video about organizing my studio. It feels so good when everything has its place!
My studio aesthetic is different but has a similar theme. I have the same issue feeling like there's too much clutter if things are out. I ended up going with matching white wall cabinets, dressers and standing tall cabinets with floating shelves just for decor. Having the cabinets is great for keeping down visual clutter and they're just as (if not more) functional! Nothing feels better than right after cleaning when everything looks fresh and clean ✨
The part with Toadie staring into the crate box is all the feels for me some days! 😂🤣 Like looking at a to-do list and feeling, yeah…not today. 😂🤣 Also glad to see you resting and how exciting seeing the Otters! 🥰❤️
You could paint just the top of that kitchen table you used for the spare computer! Then you could get your pop of color, plus it would still go with the other raw wood in the space, and you wouldn't have to deal with the fiddly bits. You could even paint a checkered pattern or something! Since the overall time of the project would be way smaller, only doing the top.
How ironic! I live in NC, not far from the outer banks at all! This video was especially aesthetic just knowing how close one of my favorite artists was to my little bumpkin homeland lol perhaps this summer I’ll plan out a trip towards the coast (I’m up in the mountains) and do some shell hunting 🐚 omg this video is just soothing AF I love it, time to brew some tea and just chill
I live by the beach, so seeing people treat it like a vacation spot is kinda funny to me. Mountains, on the other hand….ohohoho. I’ll die happy if I saw one (1) mountain.
Tengo sentimientos encontrados, Muchas chicas creadoras de UA-cam, me hay ayudado mucho a salir de mi depresión y ansiedad, y mejor aun de dejar mis trabajos y habitos que me restaban calidad de vida. Gracias a todas por hacerme creer en mi y mi creatividad. Soy arquitecta pero con un gusto a la ilustracion, jamas me habia permitido explotar y aceptar esa parte de mi personalidad. Aun tengo mucho que recorrer pero tu, Little peach, apple cheeks, michitothehappines, cheyenne barton, Fran Meneses y thanksxu me han formado bastante a seguir mis sueños, y lo que me hace feliz. Gracias chicas, son parte grata de mi proceso desde el 2018 que que exploto la pesadilla. Gracias por acompañarme cuando no tenia energias, cuando no queria cocinar, cuando solo queria dormir. Verlas crear me animo y animo... gracias de verdad
Huge fan of the Outer Banks... we go almost every year, however, my favorite vacation has been in New Orleans... love the history, the food and the architecture
Have been wanting to go to the OBX for a long time and this is just making making me want to go even more- no one told me there were otters! Omg so cute🦦🥰
I've never been to the East Coast (or anything east of Colorado actually) and recently I've wanted to go to Maine. Not sure what's there, but from tid bits I've seen it looks beautiful!
the colour grading **MWA**
THANK YOU
Came here to say this
I like the green envelopes and I LOVE that James is a part of your family vacation!
I LOVE that too!
God, the chill energy of these videos sends me to such a peaceful place. I want to live a life like that...lol, my life sucks. Also, I love that it's filmed like a "slice of life" indie movie, I dig it. And James dropping his phone 3 stories is hilarious....of course that would happen to him, lol.
He actually dropped his phone from three stories TWICE
lmfao same

Yes this is exactly how I feel!!!
Your studio keeps getting better and better, I love how you utilize everything!
Hahah the moment I saw the Monitor Merrimac Memorial Bridge Tunnel I was just…”ahhh yes, I know that well.” 😂
OTTERS ahhhhhhhhhhh ! this vlog was like a ghibli movie 🥺 so peaceful and lovely and cinematic slice of life vibes. I love the studio organization, I just put up some new shelves and I'm on the same struggle of useful storage and more shelf space vs things looking cluttery.
ps my fave vacay was my 1 week study abroad in Paris, mostly the parts when I went on walks with a friend by ourselves lol. but also driving from ohio to vermont in june was lovely.
whatever kind of video editing you're doing to get that saturated, film-like look, it's GORGEOUS!!
Glad you got to go on vacation. I love your studio! Always looks amazing. My favorite vacation was going to Ireland, the landscape was incredible there and their gardens are amazing.
The peanut butter cup situation with James 10/10
hahahah it worked really well actually I was surprised

Favorite vacation was to Arizona & Utah, went to Zion, Bryce and the Grand Canyon. Loved the relaxed vacation filming in this.🖤
would love to check out those parks! I went to the Grand Canyon when I was small but it was snowy and we couldn't see anything!
the clips of your vacation are glorious!!! love to see you enjoying filming outside of the studio
also we stay at the same beach :) i always recognize places in your posts!
I just love to see you thrive 💛 I’m glad you’re loving your new studio and loved your break 🥳
Your camera is INSANELY good!!!

Loved the otter shots! I've always wanted to see wild otters. My favorite vacay spot would be Turner Falls, OK. It's a nice camping spot.

Great video! So glad you got to have a nice vacation. Those otters were so cute!!

Yes! I like this idea! I am also browsing Facebook marketplace for a dresser to put there instead so it has ~hidden~ storage

This video just made me realize it is indeed June. 😯
My review: calming and also good
Love that
You could use the shelf to store the recycling there by the door? It looks like it will fit in the alcove
I have a shelf on the way!!
Love your vids!!! Always know I'm gonna enjoy them! Glad to see chill vacation vibes :^)
Oh this is perfect timing. Can’t wait :)
Favourite vacation was either Ogunquit, Maine or St Johns, Newfoundland. Or one time in Mexico we went to this sick park called Xcaret.
Omg I’ve always wanted to go to Maine
I loved the vacation clips 🤍
I'm in love with your outfits Leigh 🤩
Have been wanting to go to the OBX for a long time and this is just making making me want to go even more- no one told me there were otters! Omg so cute🦦🥰
I didn’t even know there were otter so it’s news to both of us hahaha

Ohhh I heard someone say Buxton!! We went to the bookstore there. So cute. I love Buxton. I'm so glad you got some time off.
I haven't been to that bookstore but we drive by it all the time. I think my family has gone without me haha
I've never been to the East Coast (or anything east of Colorado actually) and recently I've wanted to go to Maine. Not sure what's there, but from tid bits I've seen it looks beautiful!
Awsome thanks for sharing loved the vacation scenes too thanks for Sharing that too 💜

Lol I'm going to the Holden beach tomorrow to clean condos 😊

LOVE the green envelopes!! (Literally my favorite color)-where the heck did you get that cute ducky watering bucket ??! Omg
It’s from Amazon but it’s more of an outdoor watering can… like it POURS water out of it.
@@LeighEllexson lol!! Ahhh I see!! Thank you!! Glad you had a lovely time on your trip!
I don’t believe that these beautiful places are exist. It’s illegal!😭
The footage at 7:57 reminds me of the scene in Kikis delivery service which everyone loves to paint
You, me and clutter... we're on the same page bby ✌ loved the vaycay footage too 💛
Love the Marvin the martian shirt!
thanks me too >=)
Maybe find someone who can saw the print shelf in half for you. Then it fits on the inventory shelf’s on the wall
Everything goes with holidays (or vacation)
5 stars for vacation otters! ✴✴✴✴✴
Girl we JUST missed each other at outer banks by a WEEK!! is that the sound!?
yes! the house we were at is on the sound but you can walk to the beach still!
@@LeighEllexson It's so incredible there. I agree with the drive though. We're in PA so it's about 8-9 hours for us, but so worth it.
Have a good one, Leigh. Love this chapter! Tooodieee BF < 3
My favorite vacation spot is Anna Maria Island in Manatee County Florida
i just went to a beach in north carolina (visit from texas) and i thought it was a great beach!!
love love your vids
I really want to go to Italy, and just eat all the delicious foods.
Italy is dreamy!!
Love this vid and the cute family vacay time! One burning question - who is “cronk”? 🐛
It’s a mystery to me as well, found those pants at an antique mall haha
i got sooooo many hay crates when they were on sale lmao
Idk why but I see the kitchen island thingy in lime green
More like otter banks, amiright????
IT IS NOW
I love organisation! Was great to be with you. May I ask where your black top is from?
It’s an old American apparel top! Not sure if they still make it!
I went to a VK this week and have to find a person who take care of my 2 dogs from home it was hard for me I understand Leigh 💞✌️
7:50 He bouncy🤣
I would totally buy those shelf inserts from you but I'm in Canada so shipping would probably make it not worth it :/
