- Hello, and welcome to my channel. This is a space for study enthusiasts and tea drinkers, and those who spend hours ambling around libraries and book shops. I hope that my videos can provide motivation and encourage you to be productive, but without feeding into Hustle Culture. I think that productivity is all about enjoying what we do, and finding time for things that bring us happiness or will bring us happiness in the future -- and I hope to celebrate this kind of living on my channel.

Off topic, but the relationship you have with your parents seems so warm, and wholesome, and joyful! Watching you smile at your mum as she helped film your bedroom tour at the end reminded me of making home videos as a little kid, and made me want to be creative with my parents again as a young adult!
I was thinking about the same thing when i was watching that segment !
lol right! I would've been 100% on my own. My parents didn't even help me move into my dorm
I was thinking that the relationship she has with her dad, is the best I've ever seen. Mines terrible
Yeah! I would like to have this type of relationship with my parents.
Changing you bedroom from your teenage bedroom to your young adult one is the single most liberating thing.
I did this last year. Got rid of the furniture that was with me through the most traumatic period of my life, and switched it up with furniture that was more the new me.
A fresh start can be the best thing for healing ❤
i did this a couple months ago and im still finding it hard to settle into the new space. it feels like ive lost a piece of myself, its strange
@@baby404 you did tho. Getting rid of furniture means saying goodbye to physical memories. Give it time. You'll make new memories in your new room, and it'll feel more like you then.
I so, so wish I could even do a room makeover for my new room (just moved to a new state haha) but I legit can’t even print out a single piece of colored paper XD
@@hesperhildreth7351 aaahhh do you have those print machines in stores? Or a little extra money to order prints online? They're more saturated and better quality
I literally just left Ruby Granger for Ruby Granger... Don't worry I'll finish watching that previous video right after
This is soooo relatable
I almost did the same! 💜😊😂
Same here😅😂
such a mood omg heeey fellow fish attention span peeps 🤣👉🏼👈🏼
I do that all the time lol
Your parents are so supportive. What a blessing.
Indeed so!
Absolutely. I got triggered just by watching how warm their relationship is ahaha She is so blessed and I am so happy for her honestly
Ruby: cleans everything all the time
also Ruby: walks over the dusty floor multiple times
ugh that would have been the first thing I would have cleaned xD
same lol
And she was BAREFOOT! I could never
@@natalie3253 ever heard of soap and water
The victorian themed content is so aesthetic and equistic . Also I got some wonderful ideas for my room 😀🙂😄
I totally agree and I got some as well ✨
Yes, me too! I was thinking if maybe I'll just go to Victorian light academia room or Bohomian style but I'm still struggling cuz I love them both!
I'm impressed with you for leaving the dust under the bed in the video - I bet a lot of UA-camrs would have tried to cover that up to make themselves look more perfect than they really are. I bet there's a load under mine too!
"It has been screwed into the wall as you can see. So it's not going to fall on me, which is very useful." - Literally me overexplaining and justifying every single life choice I make 😅
I have never in my life seen a person go from a double bed to a single willingly... it does make your room bigger though!
Me too. I have always had a single but i am renting a full furnitured apartment for college and it has a huge double bed. I love this extra space and i sleep so much better now. On the other side it is a little bit scary sometimes and lonely but it doesn't really affect me.
I have a double bed and I’d rather have a big single bed for more space
Honestly, I’ve slept in both, and unless there is another person sharing the bed, I’d go for a single (I’ve tried sharing a single bed, it’s difficult 😂) I never use the whole bed, I always stick to one side anyways, so it’s not necessary for me to have a huge bed.
Yeees! I have had a single bed my entire life until my brother moved out and I got two rooms. I finally got a double bed and my old cat really loved the upgrade 😂
Ruby is so sweet, when she is talking about something that excites her. That room makeover is just perfect :D
I found my aesthetic! 'Victorian light academia' Nice balance of old and modern without being overbearing. I love it!! I could never make my room as light and airy as this though.
“I don’t really make use of my double bed“ yeah I feel you I‘m single too 😂😂
Lol My mother once asked, “What do you need such a large bed for? You’re not married.” 🤣
Single here, I recently moved in a place that has a double bed and I really like the extra space XD
I have kept my double bed in the vain hope my luck will change. Hope is such a cruel emotion.😂
@@rhythmicelegance4670 Ha. Your parents' response amuses me (I am an ace and have the largest bed (and selected my apartment because it has a huge master bedroom and I love stretching out and not feeling constrained to a small space)). I am not even that tall but I have a definite hedonistic bent which throws friends off because they expect a more spartan draw, I guess. A person can totally delight in sensuous luxury even if they are single or disinterested in sexual pairing so if you want a larger bed or space to yourself you can always use that excuse. ;)
@@kpaxian6044 You are very lucky! Yeah, I understand. I am hetero grey-ace and I prefer a larger bed just for myself and I enjoy stretching out on it too and having an airy feeling in the room, though people automatically make assumptions about this preference.. not that it necessarily matters, but it is an incredibly narrow perspective to be confronted with, lol.
I really like how your room turned out I always thought your modern bed was a bit out of place knowing how much you love victorian items and antiques. I can see a bed skirt, antique rug, and bonnet in your room's future, they would really finish off the look🙂!
With that said, I adore seeing how supportive your parents are with your various interest. I must say, your dad did a great job on the bookcase, he is a true craftsman. Lastly, I love the Juliet balcony!
I will be 28th years old on this 12th August. I have never has my own bedroom or even space and still live with my parents. I miss my moments living outside during study and working. I miss to have my own freedom and create creativity. I will moved out when pandemic is over or next year since someone need to accompany my old parents. Sometimes, being adult mean you need to make difficult decision
I don't know if I'm overstepping by writing this, but I was a casual viewer of Ruby's a couple years back and while I always enjoyed her content, I sometimes felt sad about how...awkward, alone and trapped in herself and her fears Ruby seemed. Eventually I stopped watching for a while. Today I suddenly got this video in my recommended and wow, the change in Ruby is just wonderful to see: she seems to be living up to her full potential; still special and honest about her non-mainstream tastes, but oh so vibrant, confident and happy. I'm so beyond glad to see this!
♥️
*5 things to quit right now:*
*1. Overthinking*
*2. Trying to make everyone happy*
*3. Living in the past*
*4. Worrying*
*5. Doubting yourself*
I'm only guilty of the 5th one
Edit: okay maybe of the 1st one too but shhhh
Thx for the reminder
Doing drugs.
@@ErZi-uo7fm lmao 😂
oh i'm definitely living in the past. it's a bad habit i'm trying to get rid of for the past 2 years.
gotta be honest, our style is very different and our personality in general but since i’ve been watching for so long your videos bring me a sense of comfort i can’t describe, thank you
yes I feel the exactly the same! it's hard to have words to describe it >.
I actually did the same thing this summer! I just spent the last two months revamping my two rooms and downsizing from a double to a twin! One of the reasons was also to allow for more floor space so I can start doing yoga again! 😃! Granted, for me, I am 51 and moved back home to my mom’s to help care for her. It’s interesting how at such very different stages of our lives we are doing similar things!
You did a brilliant job, your room looks even more gorgeous than before xx
I'll never understand how you are able to provide us with quality content so fast! Love you!
All of the changes are so wonderful & I feel that this room represents you SO well!
Ruby, you are my idol. When ever i am feeling down, i watch you, and you inspire me to be productive. I started watching you in October 2020, a time in my life when i was questioning everything about me, especially because i was doing school online, but you completely changed my life, I felt more motivated and happy and my life took a turn for the better. You are amazing, and well, i wish i had a friend like you. You have saved my life.
I just love ruby and her wholesome content. Thank you for existing and allowing us to see in to your life, the motivation it gives me is incredible.
I’ve been feeling nostalgic recently about a certain period of time in my younger years. Watching your videos tends to bring me back to those days, and I’m not sure why exactly. Thank you for sprinkling a bit of magic into my life❤️🍂
Really wholesome video
Ruby always inspires me to be productive 💜🌈
“I don’t really make use of my double bed” please, someone else has to see the humour in this.
Ruby this is such a beautifully shot video! So grateful to have found a creator who takes such care with their content and works so hard. Hope you have a lovely day and look after yourself 💖💗
Yes absolutely.
Light academia and Ruby are two things perfectly suited to each other ✨💖
Honestly, it’s so relatable that under the bed was dusty. Poor design choice from the manufacturers to have that un-cleanable area under it, so it makes sense that it was dusty. Your room looks so sweet now, and much more roomy :)
I absolutely love how your room looks Ruby! It’s so fun to see someone else get so excited over book shelves!
New bookshelves are my favorite ☺️ I love how you’ve done your room, so calm and fitting to you.
The enthusiasm Ruby has for books is a whole mood, Dickens is my favourite author too,
I purchased and received your academic planner, i cried because i was so happy, it truly has everything you could possibly need. congrats on another amazing project!
Me too!!! It arrived yesterday and I love it!
Never seen a thin bedside table before, I’m definitely getting one!!
Your room looks fantastic! You remind me of myself when I was your age. I had graduated from college and was working full time. I took part of my paychecks and bought a new 9x12' rug, new curtains and bedspread by Laura Ashley, new lamp shades of white lace, and our best friend, who was a carpenter, built me a bookshelf to house my books, including my new 21 volume Dickens set by Oxford University. I still have it, all these decades later, and still cherish the evening my future husband and I filled up my shelves with books! Enjoy!
Love this 🥰 I recently moved into a cottage and have been setting up my own home library, it's all very exciting 🖤🖤
I just done up my room recently as well and I basically done the opposite. I always had a single bed and loads of space but it never felt cosy so now I have a double bed and even though I have less space I love it so much more coz my room just looks more inviting every evening! Your room has way more character than mine tho!
the bedside table seems hard to reach when you're actually in bed, or am I wrong? lovely transformation though!
i was thinking of the same thing!
I was thinking that too, but when looking more closely I saw that you can reach through the bars of the bed when the pillows are down. :)
@@juliaw.7956 ohh right! i didnt notice that
Love your room! It really makes it even more light and airy having that extra space for you to use in a versatile way!
Just what I needed after a bad day, thank you Ruby for cheering me up ❤
I hope tomorrow is better xx
Rubyy😍, everything about you and your style gets more beautiful with time!! Your room looks so cozy and pretty.
Love the mint green top you’re wearing while showing your room! It looks so beautiful on you! 💚
It really touched my heart that your dad made a bedside table for you ❤️
I too have a single bed and it allows for so much more room for extra books and moving around the room. Great plan! Now I can’t picture your room any other way.
The room turned out amazing!! I really love that Victorian bed 😍
Hi Ruby! I absolutely love your channel. It has this incredibly calm and warm aesthetic and it makes me feel incredibly joyful every time I watch your videos.
my family has two of those beautiful antique bed frames !! my sister and I used them when we were younger and they've been in our family for so long. i love that you have one too !
You look and sound so happy Ruby and that makes the viewer happy for you!! Room is absolutely stunning 😍✨
I’m moving into a new place next week and i have been searching for this kind of video for WEEKS, perfect timing ruby! 🥰
The title of the song Ruby used is I'll never leave your side by Giant Ember, Natalie Major 💚
Ruby's videos are always the highlight of my day. She is truly brilliant
That means a lot!
Lovely room! One of my favourite bits is the wheeled armchair. There are Victorian-style lampshades and curtains you can change the current floral ones to for even more ambience. It’s so nice to see a personal library so well-presented. The room looks uncluttered now. Another idea is a stool or similar to hold up your antique writing desk. I have one also and it seems almost a pity to have it on the floor, so I have mine closer to my desk level. Imagine including a Victorian vanity/dressing table! Your dad is so sweet to make that clever nightstand. Well done overall! 🎀
How appropriately timed - I just spent the whole day building furniture with my mum for my bedroom. I’m trying to just make it more homely and cosy, so all of my new furniture is wood. Hoping to get some antique lamps soon :)
I just moved house and done the same
Lily Knight yeah, it's fun but tiring, I'm absolutely knackered now after spending days building furniture 😭
this was such a beautiful video ruby!! i loved seeing your room transformation, there is something quite special about redecorating, especially when it's all done and you feel so satisfied with the final outcome!! you even gave me some ideas about decorating my room xx
Oh my goodness the room looks gorgeous, can't wait for the bookshelf tour!
I love your room and all the windows. Would love a desk tour because it’s so different and interesting. I’ve never seen a setup like it. You’re so unique, never change. Enjoy your bedroom updates 😊
I love your new set up in your room and I can see why you love those shelves as they look very sturdy!
I was literally about to organise my shelves!! So excited to watch you setting up yours!
I love your room because it seems so minimalistic yet so cozy and lived in a its so comforting.
Hi ruby. A quick update from the moore family 🙂 my husband and i finally finished the make-over in our master bedroom. We go away on holiday monday, and when we come back, we are going to paint our bedroom!!! You have inspired me to fight to be happy. I deal with alot every day. My husband is terminally ill, im his carer, im studying for a degree, im writing a book, i have a special needs dog and i have limiting health conditions too. Thankyou for inspiring my 36 year old brain 🙂 u r amazing ruby. Never change. You just be you. You individuality is why your channel is so addictive! I often rewatch your videos when im having a bad pain night and insomnia night( such as tonight) i an currently in our lovely new bed, drinking the most amazing camomile and spearmint tea ( its devine ) and watching your videos on our ipad, while looking over at my beautiful new desk, thinking how i cant wait to study at it tomorrow ( i have a little one in the bedroom so i can be in the same room as my husband and study while he sleeps/watches tv/reads etc. I have been enjoying the slower paced life, and a more wholesome lifestyle. Best wishes from the east of england 😀
AHHH! Just wanted to say that I received my academic planner and I am IN LOVE you have done a wonderful job. It's making me immensely excited to start back at Uni which is super motivational - thank you Ruby!!! Also I adore the new Victorian aesthetic of your room; it looks very lovely and cosy. :)
It's a beautiful room love the French windows.
i recently redid my room! it feels so nice to make your personal space more like yourself!
Great looking room,light and airy,not hairy like it was under your old double bed!😊
You feel good when you move stuff around. Everything has it's place.👌
Ruby, I absolutely love the transformation! 😍 Can’t wait for a video on your bookshelves!!!
The transformation is awesome. You did only a few things and its sooooo much lighter and warmer😍 love it!😍😍😍
Just lovely! It’s certainly satisfying to be able to achieve your dream space/room❤️ One of my favorite videos in this channel 💕
Hi Ruby! It’s always good to have more bookshelves-I just bought several myself so I could finally unpack my boxes of books. Very exciting. I did a bit of organizing, primarily grouping together my poetry collection, but the rest is chaos. Your room looks so spacious now and, having watched your channel for about a year, it seems perfect for who you are now. I also love Victorian era metal beds; they are beautiful but so incredibly heavy. I have a 19th c French walnut school desk (the top opens for storage, and it even has its own glass inkwell) with a matching walnut chair. Just looking at it makes me want to pick up my pen. Enjoy writing and reading and daydreaming in your ‘new’ room! Janet 🦋
Received my academic planner today. Love it!
Who could dislike this awesome videos? Such a beautiful video Ruby, greetings from Mexico💕
This is so FUN to watch! Your room was aethestic from the begging but became much more beautiful♥️
Your vlogs or videos are suprisingly calmy. I mean, watching them makes me so relaxed. You have an amazing vibe around you. x
Looks so good Ruby. You’ve so inspired me to redo my room now lol. I love the little letter writing area!
I found myself a single bed because of you! While I’m grateful to have a double bed I don’t need that much space in my bed and it takes up more than half of my room space. This video was incredible and I can’t wait for the book shelf video from one book lover to another.
This room looks so good! My favourite is the new bookshelf though
You have created a beautiful whimsical space for yourself. I would’ve picked out the very same bed, I love it. Good job young lady. 🌸
Przepiękny pokój 😍
Love the way your mum helps you xxx
It is so good that you are being true with your self and not satisfying other likes and dislikes
Your room looks so beautiful now! I’ve also made some changes to mine and even though it’s a tiring process, the end result always makes it worth it! Also, yesterday I received my academic planner, and I can’t congratulate enough for how wonderful it is! This year i’m starting grade 11, so I know it will really come i handy. I hope you have a good day!
I am really looking forward to a house tour☺☺ and I absolutely love your new room Ruby🥰
As always,you inspire me. I now have this urge to redecorate my room and declutter it.
Your room looks Extremely gorgeous in the end. Still gotta do mine.
Well, it's so beautiful. Love your videos, Ruby
I have a similar bed but it is a double. White iron with brass knobs from 1892. My mom bought it from a dealer in the 1980s and passed it on to me when I bought an apt.
Her smile is the most genuine one I’ve ever seen ngl🤧😭✨❤️
I love this soo much! I love English houses (Australian here) and the Land Rover is beautiful!
WoW! I loved how ur room turned out , its so aesthetic ✨🤎🕰️🥥☕🙈.... Even though its not my style i still lovvvvvveee it❤️
So happy for your new beautiful room!!! Lovely! 💕💕💕💕
Your soo aesthetic, your videos keep me sane during quarantine, thank you!!!🤩🤩🤩🤩
Great video, your room looks beautiful and your content is always so calm and relaxing ♥
I love the style of your room I have so many ideas now! Keep making awesome videos!
just a friendly suggestion, i think to make the room even bigger, you can switch the position of your bed and your closet. :) you'll still be able to wake up facing the window with all the light coming in. and you'll have bigger space. :) and the new bookshelf place it beside your desk or put it beside your old bookshelf.
I just got your planner in the mail! It’s is so exciting and I’m so happy to use it!
Your room looks so beautiful and cozy😍😍😍
Love Victorian aesthetic so much 😍
lovely make-over! when I turned 18 I transformed my childhood bedroom too and it's so much better now ❤️
really love the use of in the hall of the mountain king here (i think thats the title?) because its EXACTLY how cleaning a room feels. it starts very peaceful and then you realize you need to do so much more than you thought
I enjoyed seeing your enthusiasm and joy with creating a space you love to be in! I think it's important to do this, working on it myself. :)
"Yayy! A new video!" That was my reaction when I got the notification for this video. I love watching your videos!😊
