I kind of like the diagonal mirror 😅
To each their own 😄
Me too.
I would like it if it were square!
Lovely house! And as someone living in Europe, I definitely wouldn't say it's a small house!
Yeah I hear homes on Europe are tiny!
I agree
I'd say it's too small for 5 people
The baby on the couch makes me nervous
Lol
@Katie Did. makes me nervous too
Same here! Like she isn’t near him at all, he could fall off at any moment, I don’t know why she doesn’t just put him down for a nap or simply carry him!
For European standards your home is quite big for a family of 3 :) I love it, especially because u keep it so minimal.
When you got to your bedroom and were talking about your bedding I love how you said marriage is about compromise. Yes! I can totally relate with my husband as we are renovating our home and he likes the dark and moody vibe and I like the white and airy vibe - his car is black mine is white lol, so we painted the home white walls with black trim and accent walls 😅 this is how you do marriage. Loved this home tour I recently found your channel and was looking for a home tour but didn't find one so I'm glad you released this video today!
Wow I love that compromise! I bet it looks amazing. Also thank you, I’m so glad to have people like you on my channel 😊
Haha my husband and I are the same way
We live in England so this is really a normal amount of space for us, if not quite big! We don't have closets really here or laundry rooms unless you have a huge house. Our house is literally- straight into the living room , then into the kitchen which is also where the table is to eat, the kitchen also the washing machine in it and we have to dry clothes in there. There's a small pantry full of crap and the fridge off the kitchen too. In between the living room and the kitchen are the stairs up to the bedrooms - master bedroom and a small bedroom for our son, we have one bathroom which is ridiculously small, like I have never been in a smaller one. Then there are more stairs up to our daughters room which is in the attic. Houses here are so expensive and so small!
Made me nervous with baby on sofa, should block the end with something lie a chair. I come from a family of 8, husband a family of 12 and we had five kids so I do not mean to judge or hurt your feelings but kids go from corner to corner when little in crib. Back in the day we had cribs that had like an s hook to hold mattress. Well we did not hook the crib mattress right but thought we had. When our oldest got to be about 3 mths old it dunked him on the floor. Lucky for us he was just starting to sllep in his own room so I did not sleep good and heard it. So just be careful things can happen. You know your baby though. He is adorable. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home. I love it. Enjoy that little guy for they are gone on thier own in a wink. God Bless you.
Wow the baby really scared me. He's there by himself 😳
I didn't even notice he was there until he moved and made sounds. I hope he doesn't fall.
He's so cute
But we needed to see her house tour ...😬🤔🤷
Right?! Came to the comments to see if anyone else was concerned... lol. I thought that maybe he was old enough to get on and off of the couch, but he isn’t even crawling yet. Definitely sketchy, especially on such a narrow couch. I have an 9 month old and haven’t been able to trust that he wouldn’t roll off ever.
@@TheMircakes you never know when they will roll
Thank you for opening up your home to us. It's so lovely! I love your style.
Thank you!
Thank you for sharing your home with us! You have really used the small space well and it's adorable!
I love how you’ve made use of every square foot. You’ve truly made your home work for your family.
A few years back I did a cross country move and moved into a smaller space
Taking that opportunity to look at everything I owned, get rid of anything that wasn’t serving me / pair it down, felt refreshing and freeing.
It’s been a few years since that move so I’ve accumulated some more things...but seeing your space is very inspiring.
Also reminding myself, sometimes it’s okay to hang onto little things that make me happy.
Appreciate you letting us into your home. Love the videos Ashley !! 💛
Awe you’re too sweet! Sometimes I wish I could uproot my life and live somewhere else but we have so many ties here. Its really amazing you were able to do that and cut down your belongings. Thank you for your sweet comment. It’s people like you who make me excited to put out more video 😊
@@AshleyEmbers thanks so much for the kind response, Ashley! I love the videos :)
“Crutches for whenever we break our legs” haha you’re hilarious 😂😂😂
The mirror in the bathroom was my favorite part! So interesting and unique.
I love EVERYTHING about it, except the diagonal mirror! Its such a beautiful, cozy home!
LOL I thought I was the only one having to live with this, (almost the exact same sentimental blanket, his is tiger) that made me laugh.
Hhahahah omg that’s too funny 😄
My husband ALSO has a sentimental blanket we cannot get rid of! I thought I was the only one too! 😄
😂😂😂
I LOVE your house, it is adorable!!! Thank you for sharing!
Love your cozy home, thanks for the tour!
You can put the picture on the wall with the structube chair in the nursery
I like the ledge in your windows also. I want to build out my window ledges to set more plants. Thank you for the tour, many ideas.
And you have a beautiful home!! Love all of your plant's brings a lot of life🏡🌱👌
beautiful space and thanks for being honest about the junk areas.
I think that bathroom mirror is visually really cool on the diagonal like that!
This is a lovely home! Thanks for the tour!
Amazing amount of storage for a small space. Cupboards everywhere 😃
That coffee table is beautiful!!
Thanks for doing this video! I have never seen some of these rooms before!
I love the artwork! Especially if it is personal. I have a lot up in my house. I have a large painting in the kitchen. Your blue painting would look great in the kitchen under the cabinets at the end of the table.
Love seeing how other people organize in a small space, really helpful! Also love your top in this video !
you have such a beautiful cozy home! impressed with how well you use your space!
Thank you!
Idk the bathroom mirror is kinda cool
I dream of a laundry room, one day! For now the washing machine is in the kitchen which is so noisy, but that’s standard for homes in the uk
Wow that’s crazy! Ive never heard of them in the kitchen
Well, it is standard for most of homes in Europ! Their "small" is our "normal" 😄
(I live in Brussels, Belgium)
@@vanessazicot6589 that’s what I was thinking! American houses do seem very big from what I see on UA-cam
*Canadian* 😊
@@AshleyEmbers so interesting to see people’s houses around the world. Thanks for the video 😄
this is such a beautiful home!!
I love small cozy homes! I’m downgrading to a smaller space when my lease ends
U have a lot of closet and storage space for a small space and I love that slanted mirror in the bathroom.
This is the perfect size for a house! My hubby and I live in a 624 square feet apt in DT Toronto and we're expecting in March so it's nice to see what others have done with their small spaces.
That’s awesome! Good luck with labour and delivery!
Love the sage green walls!
I love the bathroom mirror
Thankyou for this video!!!! ♥️
My husband is the same way about bedding. Currently using a Michigan Wolverines blanket ha! But I love my husband and the compromise is worth it!
So funny how similar men are 😄
So cute, thank you for sharing!!
Such a beautiful home😍😍
So beautiful. Thanks for uploading 😍
The bedding thing was so relatable 😅
Triangle mirror!
I LOVE that coffee table! my husband is looking at building a coffee table very similarly to that!
First video I ever watched from you. I clicked on it because I live in 800 square feet with a family of 4. I also named my son Rook! What a funny coincidence! Beautiful home tour. Great taste in home decor and baby names lol.
Wow that’s so crazy! I don’t know any other rooks 😄
@@AshleyEmbers Me neither! I couldn’t believe it when I heard his name! 😊
The mirror and the wolf blanket, I couldn't cope! 😂 I live small home tours. My house is 823sqft in the UK. We are a family of 3 and it's so hard to be contented. Im more and more convinced I need to declutter to be able to enjoy the home we have.
lovely house! Always looking forward to your videos!
💛💛💛
This video really give me the inspiration that I needed! I’m 36 weeks pregnant and I wanted to give our house a more “homie” vibe. So tomorrow I’m going fishing on GoodWill with my husband 💕
Thats amazing 😊
Beautiful House 🏠
I realy like diagonal mirror, genius idea for bathroom in the atic
Love your place! So nice and so much storage! :D
that mirror in the bathroom is interesting, I've never seen something like it before lol. definitely a unique touch!
New sub! I love how you started with your junk drawer; I immediately thought ‘oh yes, this is my type of of person’ 😂 your overstimulated motherhood video spoke to my experience to a T! So helpful. Xo
Haha! The bedding situation is pretty funny I must say. And Grant the "not plant"!!! BAHAHAHA! Love your cute house and all of the foliage! You just gave me a great idea for some old planters I have in my back yard. Loved the video!!
You could easily hang the bathroom mirror straight by aligning the two shorter sides vertically (even with the vertical wall)and of course, the longer of the four sides would be horizontal. Not a difficult fix at all. There is definitely enough space to make the change. I can tell by looking at it.
Oh my gosh, the WOLF blanket!! My husband has one too! We call it “the wolfie blankie” and yes, it’s on our bed. I dream of white duvets as well... 😂
Hahahaha we have so much in common 😂
I stumbled upon your channel and immediately fell in loved. New subbie 👋
Love your home
wow your house is very nice and very organized, thanks for sharing /watching u here in philippines
Would love that sizehouse I have a flat and love your balcony
Lovely home tour! Seems like the perfect size for your family. Also enjoyed the update on Grants situation lol
Hahah I’m so glad you knew who grant was! He’s been around a while and you have too I guess 😄. Also our house is a perfect size for us. We just wish we had a garage because josh is a mechanic and would love a space to work on cars.
first of all that baby scared the crap out of me. i was so busy looking at how nice the couch is i did not see him at first. second am i the only afraid the baby was going to roll off that couch!
Do a custom-sized square (or shape of choice) for bathroom mirror issue.
Started having your videos recommended to me because I’m pregnant with surprise baby #3 who will be 4.5 years younger than #2 and I feel like I have to relearn all things baby! Just wanted to share that to keep shoes out of the way I just store them in the kitchen cabinets closest to the door. My husband keeps his in the garage (which I realize you don’t have) but you have two less kids in shoes so maybe that all comes out in the wash. Anyway, really enjoyed your house tour, your home is lovely and I LOVE your kitchen!
Thank you, but that cupboard is full haha. My husband loves baking so he has every type of flour in there 😄. We keep our beekeeping equipment in there too.
that mirror is fresh actually
Really enjoyed this video. Your home is very clean, organized and lovely 😊. Any chance of a video showing how you use your air conditioner unit?
Thank you! Umm maybe I’ll mention it in the summer when it comes back out
I love your plants 🌱
U have a beautiful cozy house ❤️
Thank you! I do have a plant tour video if you are interested :) ua-cam.com/video/_PoV1sGHhDw/v-deo.html
@@AshleyEmbers of course 🤤
I love what you’ve done with your home. I can’t wait to find a new home with double closets as well. Your diagonal mirror is pretty cool but couldn’t you change it out if you want to? You mentioned that you painted the walls so maybe change the mirror as well?
Thank you! Yeah the double closet is amazing. The mirror is attached to the wall somehow so I’m worried to try and remove it haha
The wolf blanket made me laugh out loud. I love the patch quilt. I also have one my grandmother made. How would he feel about you having all the white linen and then folding the patch quilt the long way a draping it at the end of the bed?
It’s amazing to see how the perception of “small” changes throughout the world! Our less than 400ft sq flat feels just right for our family of 3, but am sure for some it would seem like a mansion while others couldn’t imagine how we fit everything in.
You have a beautiful home and am especially jealous of the garden, dream of having an outdoor space one day :)
Wow! Yeah no kidding. I have a friend in less than 400sqft and I can imagine adding a kid to theatre situation
What? xd small house?! I say it is huge! I’m from Europe...Lol
I am from Turkey , i so loved you and vlog. Very successful 😊
Thank you!
@@AshleyEmbers I'm expecting a baby too :) 30 weeks , ı I hope he will be a sweet baby like Rook. I can not speek english well , I could not understand which country you live in ? 🙈
Hello I’m a new subscriber, beautiful home 🙏🏾
Beautiful home! I wish my husband and I had separate closets but my house is so small I don’t even have a storage closet! 😔 for now i use an old Ikea wardrobe as storage 🤷♀️
Do you have you have to to make it work 😊
Love the video! I would love to go minimal. I've gotten rid of so many things over the years, but no where close to being minimal yet. lol
Minimalism is a journey 😊
I don’t mean to be a Karen, but I just really thought throughout the whole video how the baby can be left in the couch and he won’t fall over? I’m just super paranoid about that stuff. Lovely home. Thanks for sharing.
I don’t blame you, now that Rook knows how to flip over, we don’t put him on the couch
it's so interesting to see how housing is in different parts of the world :) here in Ukraine 750square feet is by no means big, but it is decent. Our flat is smaller than that and it is plenty for us (expecting momma here), though furniture is not the best (I'd prefer to have more practical options). but we'll be able to make it work for at least the first 6 months I think. :) and if the furniture was more practical, it wouldn't even be a question if we should move or not.
We'd like to move but:
1. pandemic
2. prices are way too high compared to what we pay here.
Yeah furniture makes a HUGE difference in making a space functional. I wish you all the best in your pregnancy and motherhood 😊
Any tips on how to get your home to not smell like food when you are cooking in such a small space? We also live in a small 750sqft home and the smell of our food fills the house when I cook lol Would love to get and tips about this. :D
Cute place I could live there
Your house so cute 🥰
Thank you!
"crutches for when we break our legs"
Does that happen often? 🤣
It reminds me of the chocolate bar episode of SpongeBob:
Injured Fish : I was born with glass bones and paper skin. Every morning I break my legs, and every afternoon I break my arms, at night I lie awake in agony until my heart attacks put me to sleep.
Love your home! It’s absolutely goals!! Also, dang that’s so many cabinets and storage for a kitchen! I love it! I’ve never seen so much storage in a kitchen!
Grant the not plant 😄 8:33 Also I've been thinking of building my own vanity recently...
The wolf blanket 🤣
Love the style throughout and am so impressed with how open and airy it feels given the size! x
Thank you 😊
Dear Ash! I LOVE the colour that u used for your walls. Do you know whats the name of the colour and where to get it? I live in Austria so I don't think that I'm able to get excactly the same but who knows ^^
Love the video! Whats the green color you painted the walls?
I don’t know! The green was there when we moved in
I actually love that blanket on your bed! I feel like it match well with the decor. Random question but what model are your Blundstones? the classic 585 or the chisel toe ones? thanks for your great content I'm always looking forward to watch your videos xx
Yeah I don’t mind the brown blanket too much. I think I’ve just always dreamed of white bedding. And the boots are the classic 550 ☺️
Do you rent or own? The situation with the mirror is an easy fix get a round one👍
Your house is honesty 3 times the size of our house in the UK! I think houses must be much smaller here!! xx
Yeah. I hear house in the uk are tiny
@@AshleyEmbers also the amount of storage space you have is unheard of here in uk ...
I have 760 sqr ft and love it❤ less to clean too😅
“Crutches for whenever we break our legs...” 😲 what?
Lol! Josh broke his ankle a couple years ago and our insurance doesn’t cover crutches so we don’t want to repurchase if we ever need them again.
If my roommate wouldn't have kept his crutches I would've had an issue after my car accident
Well, that's weird. I thought you had a Canadian accent and went to "About" to see -- and you live where I grew up. I lived there when it only had three stores: Mrs. Wain's, Roraph's, and Mr. Jones's. Well. Your baby will probably go to the same elementary school I did. It's still there.
You can easily straighten the mirror if you don't like it
It’s glued to the wall
What is that green/grey paint colour on bedroom walls? Looks great
I don’t know what the green is but the grey is “kitten cotton”
Wow. Sounds like Josh needs to grow up.. Childhood quilt over really. Grandma's blanket I can understand
The home feels big for the square footage.
Yeah the layout is nice
Love the mirror! Beats a tiny round mirror you can barely see your whole face in
True!
My husband has a blanket just like your does, except his has a massive ship on it. Never been into sailing. Not sure why he's so into it... but compromise. 😅
Hahahaha love that 😂
