At last, the long awaited LA apartment makeover.. only 11 months late! In this ultimate apartment makeover, I transform a closet into a cozy ~aesthetic~ bedroom, restore thrifted furniture, propagate a small army of plants, make my own macrame plant hangers, contact paper my kitchen counters, paint my window frames, create a home office in my dining nook, spend way too long trying to assemble furniture, and wallpaper just about every surface in my apartment.

I miss her
HOW do you NOT have a lot of friends???? People are probably jealous of you if they don’t want to hang out with you. You are SO my kind of people. Real and normal.
🙂 I can be a procrastinator too. So seeing that it took almost a year to do your apartment was good. It takes me a long time to get where I want to be in that way too. Money, life, just everything. It takes time sometimes!
Did she say „I normally get David or whoever I‘m fucking to do it“ when she was talking about the spider?
you haven’t posted in 8 months are you ok?!
this is one of my absolute fav videos to watch just to relax because the vibes are just so nice
this video came out exactly when I was trying to move out the first time, then things happened and it didnt work out, then covid started and I lost my job and it again did not work out. Now finally, after nearly two years, I got a nice job where I can afford to move out again while in college. I am moving out next week to my own apartment. This sounds dumb but I probably watched this video like 10 times, it always kept me going and motivated to not give up 🙂 I know you currently dont upload here, but just so you know, even your old videos make us happy! written by probably one of the only guys watching your channel lmao
my daily dose of therapy

She Listens to Harry Styles!!!!
I miss her and her content 😭
When she said “blood, sweat” I just continued it with the army and said “tears”
Miss you ashley
love this 🙂
"maybe 2020 will be your year buddy"
…..
Not me relating to you when people call me oriental and all I think is “I’m Asian, not a fuckin noodle.” Lmfaoooo
Wondering if I want to know why the desk is $1…
I’ve watched this so many times I love this so much
i miss you :((((((
Where did you get your entryway mirror??
You crack me up! When you say things like, "So my first step in my apartment makeover was hunting for some dead people furniture…." or "…this dresser…which is so beautiful I feel kind of bad putting my period underwear in it…" I just can’t even take it!!! Bahahahaha! I love you. 🙂
This is only my third video I have watched of yours. I’m already a huge fan. You’re just awesome. Seriously. 😛
One of the best interesting diy videos of seen in a long time
I dont think attractive people should joke too much about sex. Thats like a buff cop joking about being physically powerful, or some trust fund baby joking about putting other people at risk by driving fast in an expensive car, or some other example that I cant think of right now. Maybe the examples are bad. Anyway, you are funny, I’ll give you that o_o
Time to sit down with a nice meal and watch this video again for the 56th time
Just discovered your channel. So me at DIY. You did a great job. And made me giggle at times. Subscribed so keep posting.♥️
Ashley. I hope you are happy and well! Miss your happy vibe.
i miss uu!!
thank you for the spider warning!!!
What’s the name of the wallpaper paste?
While watching this I re-did my room
Who else is rewatching Ashley’s old videos because horrible people made her stop posting?
8:24 ok, now what?
But plants are better than people so ya winning 😂♥️
This video looks like linh truong’s (also the making money vid)
I LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
30:48 😭 I freakin miss youuuuu
Narator: 2020 was not her year
What store did u go to thrift furniture??
Still waiting for a new vlog😞
God, I miss her videos!!
“Maybe 2020 will be your year, buddy”
It was in fact nobody’s year
I miss youuuuuuuu
Strong independent woman 🤍
this has become such a comfort video for me it feels ridiculous how many times I’ve watched it
i swear i watch this vid around 4 times a day
The type of man who would call me oriental 😭💀
I miss her so much
You can just easily change the way the fridge opens btw
One of the best vlogs ever. 🥺
comfort video
