    Such a great redo! I moved into an apartment where I can't drill into the walls, the Command strips and hangers have been a godsend. I have a ton of art and family photos (and my ex found 2 big boxes of family fotos that I'd thought I'd lost over 10 years ago. I'm going to be changing out a bunch of photos, and storing the others so they last another 100 years!

    Loved the ideas!! I used to be so afraid of command strips. I used them once and pictures fell and broke so for over a decade I stayed away. Last week I said "F" it...yes just the letter, I didn't curse 😅 BUT I ordered command strips, FOLLOWED the specific instructions and voila!!!! My item is hanging perfectly. Who knew to wait an hour 😂😂😂

    The Command claws are a game-changer. I recently moved into a place with a bizarre combination of metal studs and plaster, and they're holding up my heavy ceramic signs easy peasy. My walls aren't suited to just pressing them in with my thumbs, so a hammer is necessary, but still... grateful for whatever nerd came up with them.

    So chic! Loved the results because it added so much character to the space. My only thing is the sofa… the cushions look empty on purpose? I guess it’s my OCD but I cannot deal with so many wrinkles or lack of volume, but again… maybe it’s just the style 😁.

    Great ideas, 3-M makes the most useful products that actually work. After watching this, I looked at some ways to get things to hang or stick on drywall, which is almost impossible other than from these products. I have a toilet paper holder, that has been driving me nuts and hurting the wall, so what a great idea. Thanks!

    Very good video. Talking while doing, always moving, to the point. Excellent. Your baby on the sofa when you started fluffing was looking at you like…oh no, not this again, am I going to have to move, is she going to toss something on me, better be ready….. too cute. I love what you did today, it really added warmth that was missing before and although I wasn't crazy about the centrepiece for me, for my taste, I think it was PERFECT for the space you designed.

    Your dog is adorable in the dining chair. I love Command products. But I had no idea they had things like that. I bought the hook thing from somewhere. To hang the two mirrors that I have hung up. I do have some of the wall hanging strips. I haven’t used them yet. I have Command hooks in my bathrooms. They are specifically made for bathrooms. I love how everything turned out. It’s something even I could do. Thanks for another great video.

    Hanging blankets on the wall as decor is actually really cute :) I went cliche and put mine in a basket under an end table 😅. I also like your scented sandy pears display (as I'm going to call it, lol!). Going to have to look that up as a nice alternative (or accompanyment) to the candles and wax melts I'm trying to use up.
    And lastly, the tulips that you used on your coffee table, are those real? They're beautiful! This was a really great refresh for the living room 😊
