As an engineer, I would say be careful when you organise mains cables by twisting them into a coil (like the way you showed for the kitchen appliances). It's fine if the appliances are unpowered. But if they're powered up, the organised cables act as a coil, which might cause overheating - risk of fires 🔥.

P.S. love your videos ❤

Wow, you solved a bunch of my visual clutter issues in this video. Also, I found the no-talking just quiet background music quite refreshing. Thanks.

As someone who lives in an apartment, this video gave me so many ideas on how to organize everything to fit small spaces. I love how you design your house to make it functional and beautiful at the same time.

If I organized instead of watching these videos, I wouldn’t need the videos. The dog was a bonus!!

[wakingtheworld]

A place for everything and everything in its place. Keeping things you use most often easily accessible. How I like to run my home too. Lovely vid. No words needed. You have a beautiful home by the way.

I have another idea for hiding the electrical panel. Fold a table runner over a dowel and hang the dowel over the panel. It adds some nice texture to the wall.

As a German Uni student in a tiny apartment, I loved this video! Thank you for your content! :) Your home is beautiful and what I aspire to have one day ✨

[ashisjana]

I loved this — so much content and no random chatter. What a kind and thoughtful presentation to help many apartments and homes feel cozy, intentional, and peaceful 🙏🌺

I am in love with how organized you are and how practical your tips have been for any person. We all have those unsightly cords for example. One tip, it might be different in Germany but in the US don’t cover the utility boxes! I know they’re unsightly, but I was told in the case of an emergency it’s important they can be easily found.

[serenakoleno]

Great tips. Thanks for sharing your lovely home and advice. ❤😊

[youdontspeakforme]

I love your home! And your furry little helper is adorable 🐶 ❤

[beverly]

You and Pat have created such a lovely home, with so many beautiful and clever ideas!

[dhcrasher]

I wish I could magic you to the UK and have you make my home look as beautiful and organised as yours 😊 ...I’ve been hooked on your videos since the first one I saw, the kitchen in your previous home. Your talent and vision, and practical skills, are awesome ❤

Finally the video that's targeting my biggest pains in the house. Thank you so much ❤

Immediately knew you were in germany because of the paper you showed in the beginning, other countries dont really have to store binders full of documents lol. So this was really helpful for me as a german to watch.

[frithjofschlesinger]

I love this video. The idea with the folding ironing board is genius. I’ve been looking for a way to fit on in a tiny apartment and that’s just the thing

[cynvision]

I'm with you on the removal of packaging. I moved to a rental studio this year and struggle with making a restful place. The only difference I have is that if I conceal things my brain thinks I don't have to work on them. Out of sight out of mind can backfire.

This is really very cozy asmr backgrounds sounds for my room

[misaagoo]

Thank you so much for this video 🫶 Not only are all the ideas and tips so helpful, the calm and soft vibes make it inspiring! Even if you “hide the clutter away”, you manage to do it without turning the space into a plain boring cold and generic environment, it keeps personality and feels warm and like a real home!

[Elisabethska]

Wow. I am a bit suprised that you have sooo much pysical paper for everything? Here in Norway i hardly have any paper at all now - as just about everything now is pure digital - really does a lot for all the paper clutter, binders etc.. Love a lot of your ideas though. I have been searching for a similar laundry rack - looks so practical.
