This is for anyone looking to update their rental apartment or home on a budget with removable products!! I hope this gives you some ideas on how you can transform your space and make it your own :) If you have any questions leave them below !
Hi Kristen. I really enjoy that makeover video of the bathroom and was just wondering..How are those tiles holding up? Do they hold up good with humid from the bathroom? How are they suppose to be cleaned? A not so wet mop? Have they shade on color or form? Sorry didn't mean for all the questions but I looking for alternatives to upgrade my bathroom for less. Thanks for sharing. God bless you. Stay safe.
I rent an apartment so these are great suggestions for me. Wondering tho, if you had the stick on items up for a couple years let's say, how do we know it's not gonna damage what's underneath? Or become a sticky gluey mess nearly impossible to get off. That's been my only worry about these. Thanks for all you share with us! So inspiring and motivating.
For sure! My hubby and I just bought our first home and I'm definitely looking for cheap ways to upgrade it until we can afford an actual reno. I currently looking at brown walls, brown carpet, brown kitchen and bathroom tile floors and backsplashes, dark wood cabinets and brown counter tops. It's killing me a little bit to look at all that brown all the time.
I'm a renter but I also work at a property management company. All these ideas are golden for a renter! No damage to the home & easy to remove if needed and the renter gets a more enjoyable space. Great ideas!
These are wonderful ideas as long as people realize that some peel and stick products leave a sticky residue that can be difficult to remove because it does leave a gluey residue behind in some cases.
Yes! I lived in rentals for most of my life, and several of them were just so outdated and downright ugly. It really does help your self esteem when you can spruce it up and make the place reflect your own style. I wish these products had existed years ago!
Thank you for this video, 99% of the “rental decorating hack” videos literally just say “paint your walls, ask if you can change the floors” yeah sorry hun, most rental spaces want 0% changes to their old style property. What’s good about this is not only are you covering the 70’s brown that’s in so many properties but it protects the surfaces so you leave the house in the exact same condition as when you arrived a+++
Girl I don’t even rent and I’m here for this video! 😂 I actually just used a contact paper in the last DIYs that has a faux wood look and it is AMAZING. Honestly can’t even tell it’s not wood. Stay safe! 🧡
I did the marble look in my kitchen and it looks so nice! It’s very tedious but also soothing. I just took my time doing it but it looks great and I got the 15 ft roll for about $6 at Lowe’s
@@joydarling314 who still spills spaghetti sauce these days!? Spaghetti is soooo Yesterday's Mashed Potatoes!! 🤣 Carnivore is the way to go... bacon grease and steak never stained a floor or countertop in their life!!

The floor pops especially. If you look at the company's site, they say they are not removable without damaging the floor underneath. I'm curious to see someone take them up to see whether the company maybe just doesn't want to be liable for false advertising if they happen to damage someone's floor.
Amazing makeovers !!! FYI: Dollar General and Family Dollar has the same peel and stick products. They work great, and look just like the more expensive options.
@@j.j.8741 I’ve used the contact paper from the dollar tree and it’s been 9 years and looks good. Not the same from Lowe’s which is thicker and way stronger and prettier
I'm an apartment renter with unlimited freedom to decorate however I want. I used to be against peel and stick products. Lately, I've seen some high quality ones and am very glad you showed these ones together as I could actually use all of them. Thanks for sharing!
Just a note...with the window coverings, just know that when it's dark and your bathroom light is on...people can still see in your window...we lived with my in-laws for a bit, they had a shower window that was big and right in the middle of the shower and it was actual frosted glass...we walked outside at night and could totally see my in-laws showering...you can't see details but definitely could tell they were nude...😬 So make sure you check that out before parading around that window in the nude, at night with the lights on!
I just did my entire rental kitchen and it looks amazing. Youd never know its all stick on stuff. I actually used Berry berry contact paper for my countertops. Its alot thicker than reg contact paper which worked better.
I love the peel and stick products. I used the tile version over my kitchen back splash time almost four years ago and they are still perfect and everyone assumed I had re-tiled. Not only do I rent my apartment but I couldn't afford real tile plus pay a tradesman to do the job, so a winner all round x
I do renovations and I will tell you- Be very careful with the floor tiles in a rental- they are usually not meant to be removed. Once they are down and the adhesive has melded a bit to the floor they will be really difficult to get up with blades and scrapers.
To fix this problem, put contact paper on the floor as a “primer layer” THEN the peel n stick tiles. When you go to take them up you’re really pulling up the contact paper off the original floor
What an amazing tip! My dog is constantly barking at squirrels he sees outside and it never occurred to me that I could just cover the window with some peel and stick!
Great tips. I just purchased my first townhome and although it’s mostly remodeled, the bathrooms leave a lot to be desired. Peel and stick here I come🙌🏾
I used the wall pops contact paper in my foyer on the top third and painted the bottom. Separating the two I used a peel and stick trim! Looks amazing, so easy to apply and as my apartment has drywall over cement the best way to go. The trim comes in many colours and is also paintable. Love that there are so many decorating options.
I'm a homeowner and would love to do a shiplap accent wall in my bedroom - this sounds perfect, as I'm sure shiplap will go out of style in a few years and I can just peel it off and my walls won't be damaged. Thanks, Kristen! Now, if I can just make it look as professionally done as you do. 😁
I covered an older refrigerator with contact paper 10 years ago. It looked like a giant basket. My kids, who are now adults, still remember it fondly. I love that stuff. Great video!
Really like these types of videos that show easy to Apply methods for Rentals. A lot of Woman videos show videos on Decor and make overs but they got their Man doing the work. Some of us do it all alone so we need easy methods.
Thank you so much!!! I'm about to get married and my fiance and I will be moving into an apartment for our first home - I LOVE home decor and just seeing all the outdated cabinetry, countertops, frameless bathroom mirrors, etc. just made me depressed. I'm so glad there are ways to update rental areas now!! This makes me excited once again for us to be moving into our first home together. Thank you for this video!
I just use the floor pop and tile my kitchen like one hr ago!! Then I saw your video. Talk about coincidence! They are the best. I even use the wall paper in my bathroom. It really gives the space a fresh sophisticated look. Keep doing these videos.
Dorette English - I've been wanting to do the same in my bathroom!! Question, I know its only been a week since you posted about doing it but have you had any problems with the humidity from shower making your peel and stick start peeling?
The peel & stick wallpaper & flooring is an idea I may go with for my house, It's easy and it's doable by me instead of calling others to do it. Peel & stick flooring for our bedrooms turned out great. Your hair color never ceases to amaze me. Now your mostly platinum. It's really unique. Thanx for the suggestions !
I used the peel and stick backsplash in my kitchen and I love it! Used peel and stick wall paper in dining room also loved it and getting ready to do floor!!!
Girl, I cannot thank you enough!! I desperately want to upgrade my camper but need it to not add weight! THANK YOU!! Even the lightest of wood and tile plus wood/ vinyl flooring adds weight (pick up a box of vinyl flooring! Yikes!) Plus I need some walls and floor sections replaced so I'm going, cosmetics/ aesthetics or repairs? I know I NEED the repairs asap but don't want to wait on the look I want while a save up! I can probably spend $200 (which won't go far on repairs so, who cares?) on this and update my kitchen, bathroom, bedroom and floors!! I just removed my carpet last week. You saved me, I want to hug you so big!!!
Wow this is exactly what I needed to see Kristen! Thank you so much. As a renter you are so right the places seem to drag and aren't necessarily updated, so I REALLY appreciate this episode. I didn't know about the peel and stick options that are available. Thanks again!!
These ideas are amazing! We are moving to a rental apartment and I was not enthused by the kitchen and bathroom countertops and tiles. This is a game changer!! Thanks Kristen!
what would concern me about the beautiful tiles in the bathroom is stepping on them when your wet and water getting in between the cracks of the tiles lifting them too soon.
I put a few coats of clear liquid floor wax on mine.. It gives the floor a mirror shine & also protect that thin vinyl coating from scuff marks...It also seeps between the cracks also creating a barrier against water puddles... May I suggest you use a towel mat when you bathe, if you step in puddled water as you seem to be implying... You could eventually slip & fall..🤕 A towel mat is a very thick towel that is very absorbent... It’s short & is as flexible as a towel that fits snuggly on the side of the bath when not in use..By the time you get off, your feet are dry. Hope this will dissolve your worries! 😉
Thank you... I am a homeowner and really like your ideas. I might use the peel and stick marble to top some great furniture surfaces until I can invest in real marble.
Wow, you're not only giving me great ideas but actual HOPE that I can make beautiful changes/updates to my house on my own without hiring a contractor......amazing.......truly amazing.
Thank you so much for sharing. I knew about a couple products but not all. Wow! So many projects I want to do around here & this video will certainly help out. I'm a homeowner. Love them all. Stay safe and God bless!
Question about peel and stick bathroom flooring: do you have any issues with water damage? Bathroom floors tend to get wet, so just wondering if the tiles hold up or if you’ve ever had a problem with mould forming underneath if water seeps through
It obviously would become less sticky over time, but it is a quick fix for now. These were very popular in the late 90s & early 00's & I know of lots of people who loved them.
I’m a home owner but I absolutely love everything about your video because I can use the products and if I like it, I can go to a more permanent option or keep the stick on when I want to change it up!
Artscape is way cheaper on Amazon! I got two on Amazon for the price of one at home Depot. I got magnolia, I'm covering cylindrical pendant light shades with the remaining material.
I am sooo thankful I found this video!!! I am a homeowner that is selling my house. About a week ago I accidentally let my curling iron lay on my upstairs bathroom counter and it burnt a small area!! 😭😳. I was going to put hard tile for a backsplash anyway, but I can't afford a new counter top!! I can't wait to look at the styles! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
Thank you for sharing these ideas I love the peel and stick tiles I've done spaces in my home but I haven't done my master bathroom seen the tiles I might do that I hate having cold floors in the morning and after I shower, I love using contact paper on top of things I actually did that recently on my desk/vanity in my home office it's saving the top from getting ruined and it's stylish
I did a peel stick from Target and the humidity had it peeling at the edges. I loved it but found I was putting thumb tacks to keep it up in my pantry.
I did a backsplash and the tiles behind the stove kept falling out because of the humidity until we put construction adhesive behind which kind of defeated the purpose of peel and stick, removeability, we weren't renters, just poor.
I love it. I have immediate plans for the widow film & the back splash. I used the window film in a previous home on the windows around the front door. It worked great. My neighbors saw it & ran out & purchased for their home. Great rental home ideas.
I’d love to use this in my kitchen for my counter tops. I’m going to be on the look out for some granite looking peel and stick. We have so much in our home that needs to be made over and we’re retired and don’t want to spend a lot of money to do it all. This would be an affordable option for us!!
Great video! Love the fact that I can put the peel and stick on my tile floor in the bathroom and the floor will feel warmer! The floor is soooo cold in the winter. Thank you.
Hey Kristen, wonderful video🎥 I've used frosted sticker sheets to cover my windows, and love the marble contact paper. Use it for my DIY's 😊. 1 doubt about the floor tiles, do they work on wet bathrooms?? If yes, How do you clean and maintain them. Thank you in advance. Take care, stay safe and God bless you dear💕😊
I think you’re just a pro at all these peel and sticks bc I tried putting on wall paper and I had the worst time ever and it was for a small area!!! LOL I love these tips tho.
I used a thick peel and stick contact paper on a scuffed up black nightstand so now it has a textured wood look and feel! Shows way less dust and revived old furniture!
Thank you! Also can we have a hair color tutorial too? 😂 Thanks! Your hair always looks so toned, healthy and nicely styled too 😍 I love your videos but always admire your hair too
These are great ideas. I'm a home owner, but I still do peel and stick because I like to switch things up a bit. I do find that the wall peel and stick does not stay on very well for me. I learned prepping the walls first is very important. Also high humidity can make it not adhere well. I love your bathroom. Great job!
I was told about this product by a friend. I used it in the front of my house on the narrow window surrounding my front entry door. It’s easy to install and it looks great!
I did the window film on my front door and side window about 5 years ago, it is beautiful and provides more privacy (open concept living room), it is holding up perfectly!!!
I’m thinking about the same thing. I am wondering if using poster board taped over the wall and then using the contact paper on top of that it might work. Idk. What did you end up doing?
@@laurabythatagari8944 I never ended up doing it but I did find some peel and stick shiplap today so that’s an awesome idea! Thank you for the suggestion!
OMG gurl you saved my life. I had been looking for those white subway tiles forever. I could neva find them BUT thanks to you I finally found some. You are awesome!! You're an angel! Have a blessed day hun! 😀
This is a great idea I rent a home my landlord don’t want me to paint or do anything to the house so this is awesome I’m going to try this since you can take it back up when need to.
I’ve been worried about those floor pops. From what I’ve read they are NOT renter friendly. I’ve read that over time the adhesive and sticks more and more over time. I’m curious to see how they are when it’s time to remove.
Use WD40 to remove stickiness. I use it on lots of sticky things, that stuff is great! A bit stinky at first, but you can pull up the tiles, spray the WD40 and leave the room for awhile to let it do its thing.
I am a 56 year old newly single woman. I have a things in my house I would love to try to update things myself without a man or getting myself into a huge mess and then not be able to finish the job. This seems doable!
Thank you for showing the counters i actually got the countertop pvc paper in marble I’m redoing my bathroom got the best compliments it’s not easy to do but thank you for showing that I’ve looked all over UA-cam for how to put it down
How does the contact paper on the counters hold up to cleaning? I’m thinking of doing it in my kitchen but I cook a lot and with multiple wipings a day I’m wondering how it would hold up.
Mellsy M I did a granite looking contact paper in the kitchen of an apartment I lived in a few years back, it lasted about a year and a half with me and my roommate. I was shocked how well it held up. There were a few little gashes on the edges of the counter, but still better looking then the blue laminate countertops underneath. I
Use caution with the floor tiles and sticky wallpaper. After two years I tried to remove these and the glue became like cement through out the floor, the wallpaper took big strips of paint off the wall. I didn't get my deposit back, and had to pay 1,200 to replace the floor.
Yes. they get harder and harder as years go by, though at the time of applying the glue is flexible. Only use on ceramic tiles and metal. nothing else.
I’m a home owner and I’m using a black & white brocade removable wall paper to apply to the inside back wall of my kitchen cabinets with glass front doors!
This is the problem that you show pictures from different places and stuff? Everybody's jumping down your shit for no particular reason. Unless they just want to be creeps. I appreciate your sewing stuff that I can get a different places. I understand that. The people need to get off of your butt.
I used the Brick one in my Apartment behind my fowe fire place Mantel and on the wall directly across from it.I used the same Brick cover to create an Old World looking Wall like someone chipped out the wall only to find Brick wall.Looks so Great! Have a nice day
Thank you for this video! We rent and I can’t wait to try these ideas. One house we lived in had a strange octagon shaped window over the kitchen sink. We used a piece of plexiglass cut to the shape of the window. We covered it with a window cling called parchment paper. I could take it out during the day and slide it back in at night for privacy. It was a great solution for that window.
My partner is renovating part of his late mother’s house. I think with Krud Kutter, and peel and stick tiles and flooring, I could get the kitchen looking so much better.
Oh I love your videos!! I had just bought some Peal & Stick for my back splash in my kitchen!! I bought mine from Home Depot! I had Formica for my back splash. It was in really good shape! We used this product and it's more than amazing!! We're buying all new appliances for our home so I decided to give this a try!! It's absolutely beautiful & cost me about $200 for my entire backsplash!! I promise you'll never be sorry!! Went over my Formica liked a dream. Since I'm a Quilter I used my Rotary Cutter (be careful not to cut yourself!) and my cuts were perfect. Drew it out with a pencil first in different areas!! Now I'm wanting to try it in other areas as well!! It's just that nice! To have someone come in my home & redo all that for me was unbelievable!! Bids were like $2000 plus!! It's crazy expensive out there! I'm a DIY girl!! Thank you for all your amazing video's!!
Wow was looking at this amazing video and realized hey!!!! We have the same lastname !! Awesome! Stay blessed and continue being the beautiful blessing to many that you are! 🙏🏽

How do you prevent water to damage the contact paper around the sink, will not it peel off?
Great tips! I’m a homeowner but sometimes it’s about getting the look until you can afford the real deal. 👍👍👍
Exactly!🤗
I ordered the floor tiles for my bathroom for that reason.
Me too! Every time I go to the FloorPop website they're out of the floor tiles I want! Love this channel
Katrina Stokes try Walmart. com 👌🏼
For sure! My hubby and I just bought our first home and I'm definitely looking for cheap ways to upgrade it until we can afford an actual reno. I currently looking at brown walls, brown carpet, brown kitchen and bathroom tile floors and backsplashes, dark wood cabinets and brown counter tops. It's killing me a little bit to look at all that brown all the time.

Sure, make the renter do all the work so property owners never have to upgrade anything but continue to raise the rent. Just great!😅
These are wonderful ideas as long as people realize that some peel and stick products leave a sticky residue that can be difficult to remove because it does leave a gluey residue behind in some cases.
Frosted window film has been a game changer for our dog who would bark at everyone/dog walking by. He’s no longer over stimulated 😊

The peel and stick window covering is also good to prevent your dog from barking at squirrels and other critters he sees out the window.
Instead of peel and stick you can use static peel and position films.

what would concern me about the beautiful tiles in the bathroom is stepping on them when your wet and water getting in between the cracks of the tiles lifting them too soon.
I put a few coats of clear liquid floor wax on mine.. It gives the floor a mirror shine & also protect that thin vinyl coating from scuff marks...It also seeps between the cracks also creating a barrier against water puddles...
May I suggest you use a towel mat when you bathe, if you step in puddled water as you seem to be implying... You could eventually slip & fall..🤕 A towel mat is a very thick towel that is very absorbent... It’s short & is as flexible as a towel that fits snuggly on the side of the bath when not in use..By the time you get off, your feet are dry.
Hope this will dissolve your worries! 😉
How about using these tiles in the shower area? Will these work there too?
I was wondering the same
Wow! We just bought a 30 year old home which needs alot of improvements, on a budget. This is amazing!!Thank you for sharing.
The peel and stick window stuff looks neat on mirrors too, so they reflect light but not reflections.
Good idea !
Especially if your a vampire. hahahahah
That's a great idea for sliding mirrored closet doors!
I don't have to do anymore searching for vendors. I can just use the ones you have found to be teued and true. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU ❣❣❣
I'm an a apartment renter And I'm loving your style Thank you 😊
Im an apt renter. I love this! Thank you. I love to do creative thing's to make apt look different and exciting and elegant
Such an awesome video! I’ve used a few of the items and literally it’s such a great deal for the look for less !
are the tiles antislip too？
Oh I love the rainbow style frosted window it cast off beautiful gemlike prisms
Thank you... I am a homeowner and really like your ideas. I might use the peel and stick marble to top some great furniture surfaces until I can invest in real marble.
Another awesome idea for renter friendly window coverings.... hang a curtain rod using two command broomstick hangers! Best hack I’ve ever discovered!
Me to my kids: Don’t put stickers on the wall!
Me watching this video: ohhh pretty wall stickers 🤪 ☕️
Wow, you're not only giving me great ideas but actual HOPE that I can make beautiful changes/updates to my house on my own without hiring a contractor......amazing.......truly amazing.
I used the peel and stick tiles on a countertop in an apartment that I rented.. the landlord actually liked it..
Thank you so much for sharing. I knew about a couple products but not all. Wow! So many projects I want to do around here & this video will certainly help out. I'm a homeowner. Love them all. Stay safe and God bless!
Question about peel and stick bathroom flooring: do you have any issues with water damage? Bathroom floors tend to get wet, so just wondering if the tiles hold up or if you’ve ever had a problem with mould forming underneath if water seeps through
Is there a sealant once the tiles are in place??
You'd think there'd be a sealant.
It obviously would become less sticky over time, but it is a quick fix for now. These were very popular in the late 90s & early 00's & I know of lots of people who loved them.
I never had a problem with mine, had them for many many years.
Baby Sauce agree. It’s a bad idea. It molds, folds, unpeels, leaves marks. It’s a waste of money.
I’m a home owner but I absolutely love everything about your video because I can use the products and if I like it, I can go to a more permanent option or keep the stick on when I want to change it up!
Artscape is way cheaper on Amazon! I got two on Amazon for the price of one at home Depot. I got magnolia, I'm covering cylindrical pendant light shades with the remaining material.
I am sooo thankful I found this video!!! I am a homeowner that is selling my house. About a week ago I accidentally let my curling iron lay on my upstairs bathroom counter and it burnt a small area!! 😭😳. I was going to put hard tile for a backsplash anyway, but I can't afford a new counter top!! I can't wait to look at the styles! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
Thank you for sharing these ideas I love the peel and stick tiles I've done spaces in my home but I haven't done my master bathroom seen the tiles I might do that I hate having cold floors in the morning and after I shower, I love using contact paper on top of things I actually did that recently on my desk/vanity in my home office it's saving the top from getting ruined and it's stylish
Can you add a photo of your desk ty
I was looking at this video to help update my moms house. But NOW I want to do my rental apartment too since everything is removable!
I did a peel stick from Target and the humidity had it peeling at the edges. I loved it but found I was putting thumb tacks to keep it up in my pantry.
I did a backsplash and the tiles behind the stove kept falling out because of the humidity until we put construction adhesive behind which kind of defeated the purpose of peel and stick, removeability, we weren't renters, just poor.
But still worth it for your desired look? I'm so ready to try it!
I am a homeowner. Love all of these ideas. Thank you so much!!!!
Loved this video! I am a renter. Thank you for all the info !! Blessings !
I love it. I have immediate plans for the widow film & the back splash. I used the window film in a previous home on the windows around the front door. It worked great. My neighbors saw it & ran out & purchased for their home. Great rental home ideas.
I’d love to use this in my kitchen for my counter tops. I’m going to be on the look out for some granite looking peel and stick. We have so much in our home that needs to be made over and we’re retired and don’t want to spend a lot of money to do it all. This would be an affordable option for us!!
Did you find a granite- look product for your kitchen counters? Thanks
@@hawks12thfan9 not yet
@@lindanave6390 Well, it's been two years now, Linda. I hope you found what you were looking for. ;)
Great video! Love the fact that I can put the peel and stick on my tile floor in the bathroom and the floor will feel warmer! The floor is soooo cold in the winter. Thank you.
Hey Kristen, wonderful video🎥 I've used frosted sticker sheets to cover my windows, and love the marble contact paper. Use it for my DIY's 😊. 1 doubt about the floor tiles, do they work on wet bathrooms?? If yes, How do you clean and maintain them. Thank you in advance. Take care, stay safe and God bless you dear💕😊
You are 1 subscribers away from 900 K. I remember when you had like 40 K. That’s awesome! Thank you for all the wonderful! Leslye
I think you’re just a pro at all these peel and sticks bc I tried putting on wall paper and I had the worst time ever and it was for a small area!!! LOL I love these tips tho.
On top of wallpaper?
I used a thick peel and stick contact paper on a scuffed up black nightstand so now it has a textured wood look and feel! Shows way less dust and revived old furniture!
Thank you! Also can we have a hair color tutorial too? 😂 Thanks! Your hair always looks so toned, healthy and nicely styled too 😍 I love your videos but always admire your hair too
These are great ideas. I'm a home owner, but I still do peel and stick because I like to switch things up a bit. I do find that the wall peel and stick does not stay on very well for me. I learned prepping the walls first is very important. Also high humidity can make it not adhere well.
I love your bathroom. Great job!
Love all the products you showed ! Also loving the mirror in your background !
I was told about this product by a friend. I used it in the front of my house on the narrow window surrounding my front entry door. It’s easy to install and it looks great!
You have great lighting!
I did the window film on my front door and side window about 5 years ago, it is beautiful and provides more privacy (open concept living room), it is holding up perfectly!!!
I’m wondering how well the wall paper works on textured walls? I have a wall I’d love to do in ship lap but it’s textured
I’m thinking about the same thing. I am wondering if using poster board taped over the wall and then using the contact paper on top of that it might work. Idk. What did you end up doing?
@@laurabythatagari8944 I never ended up doing it but I did find some peel and stick shiplap today so that’s an awesome idea! Thank you for the suggestion!
OMG gurl you saved my life. I had been looking for those white subway tiles forever. I could neva find them BUT thanks to you I finally found some. You are awesome!! You're an angel! Have a blessed day hun! 😀
For the window trick you can also spend $3.99 for spray paint that frosts windows sold at Walmart.
Suppose to be easy removable product's.
This is a great idea I rent a home my landlord don’t want me to paint or do anything to the house so this is awesome I’m going to try this since you can take it back up when need to.
I’ve been worried about those floor pops. From what I’ve read they are NOT renter friendly. I’ve read that over time the adhesive and sticks more and more over time. I’m curious to see how they are when it’s time to remove.
They are VERY difficult to remove. And the ones that do leave a sticky residue that's so hard to remove, as well.
Use WD40 to remove stickiness. I use it on lots of sticky things, that stuff is great!
A bit stinky at first, but you can pull up the tiles, spray the WD40 and leave the room for awhile to let it do its thing.
You could also use goo gone
Took professionals 4 days to remove mine and the sticky doesnt come off. Had new flooring put in top of the residue.
@@victoriaarriero-stud4211Hard, but it ISS removable??
I love these ideas & I now plan to use a few of them while updating a couple rooms in my home! Big knuckle bump with gratitude
I am a 56 year old newly single woman. I have a things in my house I would love to try to update things myself without a man or getting myself into a huge mess and then not be able to finish the job. This seems doable!
Thank you for showing the counters i actually got the countertop pvc paper in marble I’m redoing my bathroom got the best compliments it’s not easy to do but thank you for showing that I’ve looked all over UA-cam for how to put it down
How does the contact paper on the counters hold up to cleaning? I’m thinking of doing it in my kitchen but I cook a lot and with multiple wipings a day I’m wondering how it would hold up.
Mellsy M I did a granite looking contact paper in the kitchen of an apartment I lived in a few years back, it lasted about a year and a half with me and my roommate. I was shocked how well it held up. There were a few little gashes on the edges of the counter, but still better looking then the blue laminate countertops underneath. I
Oh my gosh thank you so much you helped me so much that such great ideas thank you so much for sharing it
Use caution with the floor tiles and sticky wallpaper. After two years I tried to remove these and the glue became like cement through out the floor, the wallpaper took big strips of paint off the wall. I didn't get my deposit back, and had to pay 1,200 to replace the floor.
Yes. they get harder and harder as years go by, though at the time of applying the glue is flexible. Only use on ceramic tiles and metal. nothing else.
My big concern too!!
I’m a home owner and I’m using a black & white brocade removable wall paper to apply to the inside back wall of my kitchen cabinets with glass front doors!
Did I just watch a 10 min. Home Depot commercial? 😹
Yes! i thought the rules were that gifted, sponsored and adverts were supposed to be cleared stated but i guess she must have ignored that lol!
Did you watch it all because she mentions Home Depot, Lowes and Amazon as the places to get them depending on which one.
I hope so... b
This is the problem that you show pictures from different places and stuff? Everybody's jumping down your shit for no particular reason. Unless they just want to be creeps. I appreciate your sewing stuff that I can get a different places. I understand that. The people need to get off of your butt.
No Home Depot here though, we call it Bunnings!! 🤣
I am a room renter. Love the ideas. I just purchased some Floor Pops flooring for the bathroom.
Good grief I used those floor tiles 20 years ago but they wasn't in lovely designs then just a wood design but the same thing
I used the Brick one in my Apartment behind my fowe fire place Mantel and on the wall directly across from it.I used the same Brick cover to create an Old World looking Wall like someone chipped out the wall only to find Brick wall.Looks so Great! Have a nice day
Meanwhile I just buy cheap flower vinyl stickers from dollar tree haha
Thank you for this video! We rent and I can’t wait to try these ideas. One house we lived in had a strange octagon shaped window over the kitchen sink. We used a piece of plexiglass cut to the shape of the window. We covered it with a window cling called parchment paper. I could take it out during the day and slide it back in at night for privacy. It was a great solution for that window.
Peel and stick anything is not an "upgrade"
I totally agree with you It only help with cosmetic look for sure It doesn't improve the functionality or increase the property value.
Good job on picking up on previous negative rental comments and turning them into a super positive video!
My partner is renovating part of his late mother’s house. I think with Krud Kutter, and peel and stick tiles and flooring, I could get the kitchen looking so much better.
Oh I love your videos!! I had just bought some Peal & Stick for my back splash in my kitchen!! I bought mine from Home Depot! I had Formica for my back splash. It was in really good shape! We used this product and it's more than amazing!! We're buying all new appliances for our home so I decided to give this a try!! It's absolutely beautiful & cost me about $200 for my entire backsplash!! I promise you'll never be sorry!! Went over my Formica liked a dream. Since I'm a Quilter I used my Rotary Cutter (be careful not to cut yourself!) and my cuts were perfect. Drew it out with a pencil first in different areas!! Now I'm wanting to try it in other areas as well!! It's just that nice! To have someone come in my home & redo all that for me was unbelievable!! Bids were like $2000 plus!! It's crazy expensive out there! I'm a DIY girl!! Thank you for all your amazing video's!!
Wow was looking at this amazing video and realized hey!!!! We have the same lastname !! Awesome! Stay blessed and continue being the beautiful blessing to many that you are! 🙏🏽
I love your videos and the awesome tips you share! Love the way you talk, calm but straight to the point ♥️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Wow amazing products...thanks for the info!!!😃👍👏
Great video! Please make one for updating rental cabinets!
