"we are moving to a better apartment" whoa how much better does it get than this?!
The size is very good but I noticed most of the windows are looking right into the building across. She said they are moving to a better place and nearer to the Park.
I think it gets better with a dishwasher and washer/dryer and an elevator that doesn’t break down for weeks at a time!
@@PrettyinthePines I know you will love to have a washer and dryer girl. Your decoration skills are awesome.
Gorgeous!!! Love the kitchen!
Right!!!! Omgoshhhhh
The landlord should pay you a staging fee. Gorgeous apartment 🙌🏽
I find it so funny how in America, a house built in 1908 is considered extremely old. Greetings from a house built in 1287. 👋🏻😂
Wow that’s really cool tho
@@gadger1320 tbh we don't even really realize that some buildings are that old. Most of them look as new as many other, younger houses. 😂
Where do u live 😂
@@vampiregirlTVD Switzerland :)
@@ItsNadine71335 I’m pretty close, in Sweden, and our buildings aren’t so old. We consider it old if it’s from 19th century. I imagine what old Swiss houses look like 😄
I am utterly obsessed with your taste and style. This was hands down one of my favorite apartment tours I have seen...and I've watched thousands of them. You have serious talent!!
Thank you so much, Laurin!! ❤️ I would love to take some interior design classes so I can really learn more.
My thoughts EXACTLY.
I agree 100%! Feel the same!
Yes, I love your style. You are so talented.
As your landlord I would keep everything as it is 😍 your changes add so much value to this space and would attract so many people
it's funny how people think things like this add value, but it actually doesn't. major appliances, yes. decorative flourishes, no.
Your video just popped up on my screen & it was great to see your updates to a turn of the century apartment. I used to live at 440 Riverside Drive & 116th in a corner apartment over looking the river & 116th. The most wonderful years were spent there, my friend still lives there since she was a student at Barnard in the early 70’s in her early days she & roommates called it the Bonanza. It is really huge, 3 bedrm, maids quarters w/half bath, tiny eat in kitchen, nice entry w/French doors into a lovely small room for the tv. It has a gigantic living room & dining area, 2 bath long hallway to the bedrooms overlooking Riverside. The outside of the building curves replicating the apartment bldg on the other side of 116th & Riverside & big lobby w/doormen. In ‘99 it was $1500 rent stabilized. I’m forwarding you video to my friend and another in Albany w/a 1800’s house with similar style. Can’t wait to view your past videos & see your upcoming home. Your terrific!
I agree. As the landlord, I would also use pictures of the apartment now (furniture and all) to advertise the vacancy.
I like your style and can't wait to see what you will do to the new apt
It adds a lot to showcase the potential of an apartment for future clients. I would love to have the same design if I move in.
This is a big apartment. You’ve done a wonderful job decorating it and making it your own. Can’t wait to see where you move to
It is reaaally spacious for NY! The extra living room/dining room really makes it unique
Leave everything you’ve done; there’s a big probability that the people that move in will love it & the owner too!!! 😊
Yes cause it’s so beautiful. There’s a lot of things she decorated with, but it’s so well done
She’s can be an interior decorator it. They did a dam fine job. Well thought out and placed. Colors and furniture blended well Beautiful I love it. I can’t wait to see the news place. ❤️
No, they are taking it with them, especially the fireplace mantles. They spent a lot of money there to make it look good but it's a rental.
I agree on leaving the moldings, backsplash and flooring-they’re not conducive to really reusing.
@@MTMF.london yes, the fireplace is theirs - not attached to the wall, however, everything else that they have done, which gives so much character to the place, is what I was referring to them to leave & not waste time taking down. 😉
they should tell you to keep everything up, looks better
“I wouldn’t recommend living on Broadway” YEAH LIKE WE HAVE THE MONEY TO EVEN CONSIDER
😂😂😂😂 5000$ for two bedroom wow
WOW, you did an incredible job in decorating this apartment----Best of Luck in your new home!!!!!
Thanks!! We spent a lot of time here in 2020 so we made it feel extra home-y!
This was the most creative and inspiring apartment tour video I’ve seen. Shelbi, you have impeccable taste, you made the apartment look incredible, something out of a Paris interior magazine. So clever how you guys added the molding and hanging pendant and the window tape!!
Thank you so much for watching! ❤️ 2020 gave us a lot of extra time to make it our own!
Lol! My first thought was, how sad that you are leaving such a lovely character-filled home. Then realized that you had actually added everything that gave it character (e.g., panelling, mantle), so kudos to you!!!!
Wow if you don’t already, you have to be doing this professionally! Tap into that market of revamping old tiny nyc apartments with weird nooks and corners. All the spaces in the apartment look so beautiful and intentionally designed!! Obsessed ❤️

This apartment is gorgeous and I really wish there were more properties like this in the UK.
However, its so strange, as a Brit, to hear someone describe a building from 1908 as old. More than half the houses in the UK were built pre 1900 and my local pub was built in the 1500's, and thats just the oldest pub in my town, let alone the country,
I love that though. A lot of buildings in this city are brand new. Some old. So relatively speaking, this one is old. But compared to some, it’s not.
Well this isn't the UK...America, as you should be well aware, is a new country.
I'm American, but adore a quirky British comedian named Eddie Izzard. This idea of "old" architecture in America vs that in the UK reminds me of brief part of one of his shows. I think he's joking about a town in Florida, where they are praising a building, and saying it's "50.... yeeaars .... oolllddd !!" (I tried to add the emphasis to the words that Eddie put). It's of course funny as is most of the material in his shows.
But, everything is relative, so here in the US, something that's ~120 years old is quite old. : )
'this building is extremely old, built in 1908'
me, an English: what
ok ok I take back "extremely"
@@PrettyinthePines it's fine haha! I visited NYC a few years back and that is an old building in terms of the city, it's certainly a beautiful one too! ❤️
Confession: I was ready to envy-watch this but instead I'm so inspired by how much you did with the molding, window frame DIY, and smart design. Can I hire you to plan my next apartment!?
LOL the people that rent this apartment after you are going to walk in on their first day totally confused about where all of the detail went!
the people who rent it hopefully will never see this lol
This tour is such a treat! I’ve used a lot of your renter friendly make overs and it def makes living in a NyC apartment a little more cozy
Love that! There are really lots of temporary fixes these days!
I truly CANNOT believe how much you did to make this space a home - After watching this video I took a look at your empty apt tour...And WoW! You did such an amazing job - and in a relatively short time.. You put so much work into it & I can't believe you have to take it all down now! It's making me tired just thinking about it! Lol! But I'm sure your new space will be wonderful as well....Can't wait to see how you transform that one! Also, I live in a prewar building - 1926 - up in Westchester & I really got some great inspiration from your finished space - so thank you!!
How adorable and so so creative! Every wall has something to look at and it's just so cute. Love the mantels, pictures, mirrors and how you decorate it. Yes, the biggest thing I would miss would be those French doors and windows that lets in so much light! You know your breakfast nook could be turned into like a little sitting area to look out while you're reading a book and soaking in the sunshine. Also, love the Ikea closet organizer which you left open and believe it's aesthetically pleasing and forces you to keep it tidy and organized. Love it!
I don’t know how to explain it but his apartment looks soft
All I’m thinking is “millions of dollars”
its a rental and no.
Apartment is beautiful! I’m sure the new apartment will be as well!
Thanks Lindy!!
Baskets happen to be my favorite storage solution too. Such a peaceful apartment💚
I think you should let the landlords have a look at the apartment before you remove everything. My landlord has requested I leave the upgrades I did at my apartment for when I move out 👌🏼
I love everything you did! I would encourage you to ask the landlord if they want to have you keep some of the peel and stick wall and floor coverings or moulding and door handles, unless you really want to bring them. Maybe you can work out a reimbursement. And save time during move out! Can't wait to see your next place!
It looks glorious! Hope that we'll see the new apartment..
Oh wow, looks so cozy and charming. I've rarely seen so many beautiful decoration gems in one apartment video.
You are the ideal renters. Bringing so much value into your place.
Great light. Great French doors. Not crazy about electrical tape on the windows. Love your dog. He looks like my late chocolate lab.
I'd be negotiating your rent down and just staying here! This place is INCREDIBLE and you put so much work into it!
Какая радость перед сном разглядывать свои вещи в шкафу, проснулся, и первое что увидел открытые полки с одеждой
Loved what you did with this space and can’t wait to see what you do in the new apt 💕
Hi Shelby! Just found your channel and ecstatic, as I was able to see parts of city I once lived in. Love your style and the coziness you bring to your living space. Cannot wait to see your next apartment. Please do more vlogs...love it!
I love how you have decorated your apartment...cannot wait to see the new apartment.
The fact that you think that's a "standard NY bathroom" and "the guest bedroom is small..." 😶👀 Lol you definitely have only seen upscale NY apartments. Either way, whole place is gorgeous and I love seeing how your DIY projects really brought the place to life!
Exactly. This is faaaaaar from most UWS rentals...Unless if you pay thousands of dollars...I am sure at least one of them is making big money, to just move to nyc from NC and immediately have this kind of space...
@@seane105 Yeah no hate to them for being able to afford this, just found it funny they thought it was standard and a small bedroom 😁🙃
@@KaelaComontofski Only New Yorkers know ;-)
I live in San Francisco and I'm paying $4,500+ for my 1-bed apartment in a not great neighborhood. The fact that SF is more expensive than upper west side just blows my mind. This make me wanna move to NYC so much
Awwe, I love how supportive ur hubby is!!!! Beautiful place!!!
I have that same wallpaper and just used it to enhance my stair risers. I also used it in a previous RV to add a little homespun charm. So easy to use and lots of uses! Thanks for sharing your charming space. I can't wait to see the next one.
I love the way you tackle a space! Everything looks so well thought out and I love how they all complement each other. Each item looks good and functional and doesn’t seem unnecessary at all. Beautiful!
I love this apartment and your design style.. I’m looking forward to seeing the new apartment and what you do with it. Love everything you do.
You have a beautiful home. Well done. Thank you for the inspiration. I'm a Portuguese living in Germany sending love 💖💖💖
Your apartment is lovely. I like the mantles and all of the molding you added to the walls. Those additions make your apartment look very classy! Great job!
Speechless. This is absolutely beautiful & everything you did to your space is so intentional. Sad that you are moving but I know is gonna be for the better. Thank you for sharing this, so inspiring 😍
Wow….you have such fabulous decorating ideas!!!!! It looks so cozy and inviting! I can’t wait to see your next apartment and how you decorate it💕💕
Your apartment is so beautifully. I love the work you put into it. This is literally what my dream home looks like 😍😍
Definitely saving this for decorating inspo! Thanks y'all! 😃
Wow! I love love love the way you decorated your beautiful home!!!!! I never would have guessed all the changes you made weren't original to the space!!!! Amazing job!! Can't wait to see the new place!
Beautiful!! You guys added so many great touches. Good luck! Can't wait for a tour of your new space.
I'm completely blown away at how beautiful and cozy and homy you have made your apartment. It is just so inviting and the attention to detail is what I think really kicks it up a notch from the average apartments that I have seen. I can't wait to follow you on your journey to your next place and see how you decorate again. The wall moulding is now something that I am seriously seriously considering in my place. I would also absolutely love to buy a similar mantle but sadly I don't currently have the space for it. Will definitely be putting that on my wish list though for my next place!
Your dog is the sweetest. Love how he looks like he’s listening and is so at ease. Also appreciate how you’ve decorated too and even though a rental made it home.
I’m in the uk and in lockdown, can’t wait for second hand shops (thrift stores) to open again.
I love your wall space ideas!! I've in a Victorian Village by the water. For the smaller kitchen you'll be moving into, I have some kitchen hacks I use that "make" more space. Vertical spoon holder sturdy enough to hold lids also. Under cabinet hooks. I do this for my coffee space. Also a couple hooks for small, I-use-everyday pots. Magnetic shelf to hold anything on fridge. I use for a few spices, salt & pepper grinders and small olive oil decanter. I also added a stainless steal for the top of stove. I love this. For spoon rest and other little things (my measuring cups). Its magnetic also. Big kitchens are not usually convenient or well spaced. I had so many, my favorite kitchens are small kitchens. I used to cook for large groups in my tiny kitchen. It was so efficient. All the best!
The decorative fireplaces are just so beautiful 😻
You made this place so beautiful ❤ hope you guys love the new apartment!
Wow....out of all the apartment tours I've seen on CZcams this is one is the best one, hands down. Absolutely beautiful. the colour palatte is gorgeous. Love every, single aspect of your decor style. Stunning!
I just came across this video on my feed and decided to watch it! I am amazed because as renters, you really made it into something like a permanent home. I wish I have the same creative drive like you because I'm divided when it comes to making changes to the apartment I'm renting. As renters, I dont want to commit to making changes knowing it is not my permanent home and the money put into something temporary. I do enjoy watching what other people do to their homes because it gives me some inspiration as to what I want when I do find a permanent home.
This vlog is visually sooo serene😱😱😱😱😱💕💕💕💕💕💕
Can't wait to see your next place. Your apartment was absolutely gorgeous!! Looked very cozy and welcoming. It looked like you actually live there, not just staged for a photo shoot. Loved it!!! Can't wait to see your next place!!!!
Wow! Your apartment looks like a gallery. Fabulous, cozy, warm, perfection! 😍
Can't wait to see how you style your next place - impeccable taste!
Obsessed with all the work you’ve put into this!
I had to watch TWICE. Your style is my style. LOVED every bit of it. You've inspired me to add more gallery walls. Can't wait to see your next apartment.
Your style is phenomenal and so happy that you came across my recommended videos. I can’t comprehend why people find it imperative to drop negative or snarky comments. You are not showing off; you are living your life and providing good content. So to those of you who find it necessary to bring others down, why don’t you try leveling up instead so then maybe you can radiate as much good energy and light as Shelby. Keep up the great work! I look forward to your videos now!! So many great tips! With warmth from across the Hudson! 💖
Yes, I would leave those great touches that you did. Beautiful!!!
Can’t wait to see all the cool ideas and decor for the new apartment! This one looks fab.
Can't wait to see what you do to the new place. Love your aesthetics.
You've done a great job at giving this place some character. It looks lovely.
Oh my gosh. Your apartment is gorgeous - specially compared to what it was before! I live in a 1900's building in the UWS as well and I'm amazed at all the tips and tricks you were able to pull off. Definitely using this for inspiration and thank you for linking your pieces on your blog - super helpful!
I can’t wait to see your new place and what you do with it!!!
Omg watching you guys make this place home was amazing! I can’t wait to see what you guys do next.
Wow! You are so inspirational with all of your diys! So creative!
Thank you for sharing your apartment with us! Really beautiful! The video will also give you a nice keepsake/ memory of your lovely apartment!
Wow! I love how you've styled this apartment. It looks so put together but cosy too. X
OMG!!! LOVE all the DIY!! Can't wait to see the next house!!
I'm so impressed with what you have accomplished with so little. Seriously Inspo!!!
How absolutely gorgeous! I agree with many comments.....as a landlord I’d want everything left as is. The upgrades you’ve done are just stunning❤️❤️❤️
Actually haven't been this impressed almost ever! You are such a talented, inspiration deco artist!!
So enjoyed this vlog. Your apartment is gorgeous and just love a of the work you have done. Very interesting.

WOW! YOU did such an amazing job with this, it's fantastic.
You are a talented interior designer! Love all of your DIY ideas, so much inspo from this video!
Just stunning! You did an amazing decorating and still has a homey feel
This place is stunning! Love everything! The gallery walls are fantastic. You're so creative; there's a noticeable difference when you show what the place looks like without your decor. I'm getting so much ideas. Great video! Can't wait to see the new place.... hopefully you show us. :)
It’s interesting to see what can be done with these apartments. Beautiful. And good luck to you in your new apartment.
I don’t know how to explain it but .. this video made me happy. The decor is beautiful yes but I feel an ambience - the soft music, the natural lighting, classic interiors. Just beautiful
I am getting soooo much inspiration from this! You both absolutely killed and I am so happy to see how well a "fireplace-less" mantle works in a space! Keep up the fabulous work :D
This is a home you live in forever in NYC. 😍 You've made it so beautiful.
You're so creative! I love all of your ideas!
Y’all worked a miracle in there! The moulding idea is SO good. Definitely gonna borrow these ideas when we move soon.
