Hey guys! I’m Alexandra Gater and I show you how to do rental-friendly upgrades and DIY projects on a budget. New videos every Saturday! In today’s episode of the Team AG Office Project, I’m making over my new office’s tiny entryway! This entryway was non-existent before we built a wall to divide it from the rest of the space and it worked out so well. I also do a fun DIY tiled floor with paint.

Thank you so much to each and every one of you for your continued support. I get to make these videos for a living, and I couldn’t be more thrilled about it.

stencil hack was a good idea!
OHHH You need some gold on the Stencil 😀
it’s very boho.. am not sure it gives the right vibe for the amazing work she does
A couple of plastic shoe trays would be a good idea for wet/snowy days. You could paint them to match.
I don’t know how i feel about wall paint being on the floor. I think there is a reason why we put it on the wall 😀 It will chip off really soon.
Heads up, I just made my new website with your code!!!! I’m shocked I did it by myself, tbh!
You make it look so easy 😌 👌
Link to the slippers!?
Alex: I shouldn’t do that..
"I’m Peppa pig!" 😂😂😂
Slippers for work, that is great
You might want to re do those propagation, you should cut just below the brown node not above. That plant is also a philodendron not a pothos. Hope they grow once you redo it!
The space is not very functional for workers but I’m sure she will upgrade it. But I can’t imagine being a man and working there, so much pink and cuteness overload
Super cute. Love! Also love the subtle Team AG colour. Ya nailed it! <3
I really wished you did these designs more in real time so you could ask for advice or do polls on Instagram or here on youtube. Idk it just makes me feel more a part of everything, even though I don’t work there and I am not a part of Team AG😂
Mirror opposite entrance bounces your luck out the door. Bad Feng Shui. If you have financial problems, lose money, then you might want to change that.
I love it, but I’m worried about your feet on hard flooring in slippers with no structure.
Maybe some kind of clear protective coat for the floor to make the mopping easier and protect the paint
Oh my god the paint mixing is driving me insane. 😩
It seems as if pink is the only colour that is used in all makeovers.
I love your videos and It’s all really beautiful and I love the aesthetic, but I have to say that you should think a little bit more about functionality and ergonomics when making these projects. I’ve seen you putting the design and beauty over comfort and functionality a lot and not only in this makeover. Sure it looks beautiful at the end, but I always keep thinking how this isn’t gonna work on a day-to-day basis.
You have a misconception about mauve. It’s a grayed red purple, nothing like terra cotta.
I really don’t think that wearing slippers is a good idea. If you are doing diy’s or using this as a workspace then it could be dangerous. You don’t wanna be dropping wood or power tools on your feet. Not very functional.
Btw you can use acrylic craft paints as pigment tint, for example your mixture plus a teaspoon of red craft paint would’ve given you a soft blush!
Love it; such a cute office space!! Congratulations! So exciting for you and your team! Love seeing your brand thriving and evolving!
The mirror facing the entry door keeps luck away tho.. (if you believe it)
1:18 😂😂😂
The tile looks so good! I thought it was actual tile in the screencap
that ginko leaf shaped shelf… I’m in love
About paint color: remember that Home Depot can examine a color sample and mix that color for you. I took them an a green chicken egg from an Arcana chicken—and they made me the exact color paint! It was wonderful.
I
No disrespect, but I am so tired of pink. I know it’s your signature but still you have so many followers who might enjoy something a little more "all encompassing."
Where do you go to the bathroom??
The idea of the AG team it’s good, but something is missing…
That little shelf is so cute, but it looks just the right height for someone sitting on the bench to bonk their head into it.
Colour wheel….what’s one of those I here her ask….RED/WHITE=PINK
Frustrated skipped to end, disappointed..
Mixing interior paints just makes the paint more murky than buying the colored paint at the store. Paintings a hassle
I love watching these videos, but I also find them frustrating sometimes. The color mixing portion of this video was kind of hard to watch. But my larger issue is the fact that good interior design needs to be beautiful AND functional, and while this is very pretty, it won’t function for an office. Especially during Canada winters, having 4-5 people coming in with large coats, boots, hats/scarves/gloves, bags, etc. is going to make this whole studio look junky because everything will end up piled everywhere. Also, in any case where floors are going to be painted (especially a light color) you NEED to do some sort of sealant so that you can actually clean the floors. Or just do some sort of epoxy skim coat which would be even more durable.
Love the wallpaper. Where can i get it?
Initially I thought one of the purposes was to use office as creativity supplies storage unit. Do you plan to bring to the office those supplies you store in your condo?
Wow so gorgeous😍 I really enjoyed how you tied in the black accents as well and that pink is yummy!
LOVE the mixed pinks!! Cant wait to see the rest of the space!
Just watched your Ted Talk…girl you got this! Inspiring! Love from 🇬🇧
Love your pointed dark camel shoes, where did you get them?
It’s just so perfect, so you! You have to be very proud, I know you are so what am I saying. Good Job
I have been wondering where is the toilet?
Merry Christmas and happy New Year to you all! Laura x
Wait, you didn’t clean the floor before painting it? Your paint is just going to come off if there’s dirt under it
Pls provide English subtitles for all your videos .
I love the stencil tile idea but I think it would look even better if the entire entryway floor was painted the pink with the white underneath so it’d look like grout with the team ag in the same terra cotta color. To push it further, you design (or hire a graphic designer) to make an official team ag logo and had that paint/tiled on the floor.
I want to trace team ag stencil with gold borders.. hahah
