    The candles should have stayed up!❤️ They are brilliant and the warm glow they emit are better than the harsh puck light. The wall paper and frames work to add texture and the photos are perfect. The book page installation pulls the whole theme together. Well done!

      Yeh i thought the same, the white puck light killed the vibe.

      While I definitely agree about the candles, I can only imagine how changing their batteries when they die will go, or having to take them down to replace them or if they are recharge them.

    AAHHH!!! 🧙🤩❤‍🔥 This was amaze-balls! I must admit I was skeptical but you nailed it! The candles should've stayed, duh. 😁 I think I would've added a frame, on a hinge, to cover the thermostat (but that's just me being a Bright Idea Fairy 🙃).

    I would have tea stained the ceiling book pages and used and acrylic glaze over them.

    Love this! I have a very funky wall in my bathroom & I did something very similar to this oddity with antique mirrors. Little tip for you, be certain to snap pics of the walls before taking anything down to clean or dust. It’ll save you a ton of madness. 🔮

    That's AWESOME!!! Too often i am left out of great places because no one thinks about people in wheelchairs, THIS IS GREAT!! I been in a wheelchair 6 years now and a HP fan since I was a young kid! I absolutely MUST book a stay 🎉

    I love it and I'm definitely going to use some of your ideas, however I would have painted the door frames gold, painted the ceiling black, left the floating candles and got a very antique ornate light fixture for the ceiling, and painted every single picture frame gold.😊

    The thermostat needs covered with a shadow box, another picture and a hinge. You could probably conceal a small safe on one of the walls behind a picture. Or more than one. It looks beautiful!!

    FYI there is an office supply product that is a dispenser of temporary double stick tape. It makes any piece of paper a post it note. It’s perfect for collages and placement of paper. god knows what else but I’m never without it. I think it’s called a post it tape dispenser

    The candles are the best part! 🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️I would’ve kept the candles over the chandelier. It looks amazing! Beautiful wallpaper. The center light is very bright, I think an amber glow Edison type bulb would look really brilliant. Great job! Keep the candles though…

  • @indysabby
    @indysabby 5 місяців тому +2

    Beautiful! I especially love the book page ceiling. I am glad to see you left the candles. I was going to suggest possibly a wall sconce with the battery candles (if you didn't want to leave them suspended from ceiling). The soft glow enhances everything all the more. Great video!

    I love this hallway! It really is spectacular. I do agree with most everyone else, though, about the candles. They need to be a permanent fixture.
    Also; one quick word to the wise: the word, timely, doesn’t mean what you think it does.

    Love it. My grandson has discovered the Harry Potter books and we brought some of that magic into our living room by stringing those candles from the living room chandelier to the loft railings and the dining room chandelier and the kitchen…basically everywhere we could string them. I would love to leave them up all year but it’s a bit much. A hallway size space is perfect. I’m glad you get to live that fun year round!

  • @Well-in-the-garden
    @Well-in-the-garden 3 місяці тому

    I love this idea. I personally would have modpodged the book pages to the boards and then again on top of the pages. This would have looked so much better and kept for longer. But I really love this idea of all the frames. I have a collection of old postcards from my mum and a load of old family photos from long ago. I think I will do that.

  • @darkserpentcat3309
    @darkserpentcat3309 3 місяці тому

    I am assuming the reason you mentioned taking away the candles in the future is because of how difficult it will be when you have to change the batteries, or recharge them. I would recommend possibly using wall sconces in parts instead of just pictures. My mom has some corner ones she got from my grandmother so if you got corner ones they might fit in those tighter spots but I don’t know

    @jamierussellville101 5 місяців тому

    So a renter friendly way to hang frames is using push pins instead of nails. Like the clear style. The hole is tiny. Also, I would have left the candles but maybe put them closer to the ceiling for an everyday look. Looks great! I'm going to do something similar soon.

    • @seascape0881

    • @DIYsisters_
      @DIYsisters_  5 місяців тому +1

      I definitely considered that! But I was shocked when I did the math. For such a small space I would still need around 28 tiles. And then it just became much more expensive when I was looking for a $0 diy. Haha.
