Agreed. This is the first time, I saw a video that said renter friendly that I think is renter friendly. Everyone else who says they are, all I think about, “is that really going to come off easily when it is time to move?”.
Please do a small floor section for the bottom of the fireplace!!! It would complete the fireplace look to have tile on the floor up to the edge of the trim
I did the same thing a few years back to my old apartment, with the poster board trick and decorating that and then I easily remove it when I move. It’s about time someone made this method with actual tile 😊
Safety tip: never cover an outlet, especially with flammable materials. Builders use cheap receptacles that can get hot and catch fire behind the wall. It takes a while, so you need to be able to see if the wall starts to discolor or get hot directly above or below the outlet. I learned this the hard way when i put a bookcase in front of an outlet.
Outlets should NEVER get hot. Old aluminum wiring used to do this in electrical outlets because it would expand and contract with current, and lose contact inside the fixture. So, if your outlets get hot, contact an electrician to check or replace your wiring. (Aluminum wiring was common from 1950's through 1970's)
@@CraftHarlot My building was built in the very early 70's, so that makes sense. The property owners will never replace anything that isn't presently burning down, so I'm going to have to take that into consideration when it's time to renew my lease.
@@CraftHarlotI live in one of the poorest communities in Germany. Many beautiful old houses, but they rarely are cared for. When I moved here , 7 years ago, there where a lot of fires happening around . The fire department said that it was of the old electric wiring in the houses. Most of that wiring was done in the late 40‘s to early 50‘s. And the owners of the houses just don’t care to renew them. And renters are sometimes using to many extension cables, to many electrical devices.
This channel is like a whole irl Animal Crossing decoration. The fancy stuff you see all these people do on Instagram that you don’t think normal people really have irl, but this is it! The way you decorate is stunning and overwhelming with how nice it looks and feels. It’s like fancy, elegant, cozy, cottage core.
I didn't realise you live in an apartment. I really thought it was a house. The way you decorated it is so exquisite and really makes the place look bigger
I've never seen anyone use poster board before. It's genius! I know that sometimes those peel and stick tiles can still ruin the paint and drywall. And you might be able to reuse it after you move.
At first I thought you were just using the board to cut the tile to exact measure, but what a genius idea to just slide it behind the fireplace for a more renter friendly option! Never would have thought to do that…
Should you be putting poster board behind your stove? Sounds like a fire hazard that no one else in your apartment complex would appreciate you executing. Maybe you should instead mount the tile on a tall piece of backer board that can sit on the floor but rise to the height you need behind your stove...
I like this idea even for my home, that I own! I've thought about adding tile above the bathroom sink, below the mirror but didn't want to commit to it as a permanent installation.
I like that you used poster board so you can remove it and maybe reused it.
Agreed. This is the first time, I saw a video that said renter friendly that I think is renter friendly. Everyone else who says they are, all I think about, “is that really going to come off easily when it is time to move?”.
Yes this is actually a renter friendly option
What did you use on the back of the poster board to make it stay?
@@boomboxpants That's what I wanted to know.🤔
@@boomboxpantsnothing. It just sits there.
That’s a great idea for non-renters who get bored easily! Thank you!

Great idea!!
😅
OH THAT is a GREAT IDEA.
Nice!! It would look good, imo
Love this!!!!
The faux fireplace is such a genius design idea.

@@staceyschmidt3149 I didn't see a stove in this video, nor did I hear a mention of one...
Maybe she means on the exposed wall above the stovetop, to the hood (if there is one), rather than from floor (literally behind the stove) to ceiling.
Good ideas! The choice of color and style is good. The final look is cute. That appartement is charming ❤
Thank you!! 😊
Would love to know the make and model of your beautiful refrigerator/freezer. Hope you see this! And thank you!
It should be the Smug brand. Check it out.
This is so very nice. The kitchen is so cozy
