  • Hi everyone and welcome back to my channel! I’ve spent the past few weeks redecorating my Brooklyn railroad apartment and wanted to share all the tips I've gathered along the way. Having a space that feels like a safe haven is a must in general but especially if you live in NYC. It’s also really helped with wanting to stay home more and save money. As usual thank you so much for tuning in and hope you enjoy the video 💕

    Thank you for sharing!
    However, if I may make one suggestion; show us.
    Especially when you give tips about decorating a small and dark apartment, show us how small and dark your apartment is and how good it looks!
    How many square feet is it, where are the windows, etc.
    We got to see a tiny snippet of the living room in the beginning, but no sense of how the space really looks.
    Close ups don't really work, not if you can't see how they work in this small and dark apartment (I already know what a stack of books or a totebag looks like, how does it work in, or improves, the space?).
    Maybe it would have been better if you had done the apartment tour first, so you could have shown the apartment freely (maybe you were holding back, to "safe" it for the apartment tour🤷‍♀️), and then you could have referred people to another video to watch!
    But I am sure your apartment tour is going to be great, because it does sound like a cozy apartment!

      hi, i appreciate your feedback!! i wasn’t holding back on sharing the apartment but just wanted to focus on the tips for this video, but totally get what you mean by “show don’t tell” :) the living room doesn’t have any windows, except a small skylight which i mentioned at the beginning but definitely could’ve shown more in general! the rest of the apartment (aside from the living room) isn’t completely finished which is why i haven’t done the apartment tour yet but that will come soon 😉 thank you for watching!
