    I tried to use the eco friendly laundry soap too but I went back to Tide because it's the best at everything. I am so particular about my kitchen as well. I NEVER put stuff on the front of my fridge not even magnets. I can't stand clutter in the kitchen. I actually enjoy having empty cupboards and drawers. Your kitchen is beautiful! 🌿💚

  • @thecapone45

    I completely understand you. Since having my own place I have been decluttering like crazy. I also hate having too much stuff on my counters.

  • @paris5746
    @paris5746 Před 3 lety +4

    for the bar stools if you still want fabric I would recommend microfiber, micro suede, faux suede and denim. My aunt has 3 cats and all her furniture that have fabric has either those. Otherwise if you’re good with no fabric then suggest wood

  • @martinag5173

    Really beautiful kitchen. My doesn't have a lot of storage and is hard to store even a bare essentials in it. But I am still grateful for the fact I have my own kitchen! 😁 Love the shades of baby blue with grey. And of course loved this video like every single one you make! Have a great week too❤️

    • @thesimplechiclife
      @thesimplechiclife  Před 4 lety

      yes, that's the thing! Hardly any storage to begin with -I had to really declutter just to move in here, but it seems I'm happier with less and less all the time. thank you so much for your kind words! :) And thanks for your compliments on the color scheme - not everyone appreciates the simplicity lol :)

    I love your minimalistic house ! It is so non-fussy and easily manageable; I should show my maximalistic parents! For some reason, the older generation just thinks consumption is successful and if you have less stuff, that means you are poor and broke and they respond by giving you lots of gifts

  • @jodynoiles9445

    I think gray wooden barstools would work. And you could always get cushions for the seat for more comfort, if you wanted.

  • @CFord-wu3in
    @CFord-wu3in Před 3 lety +2

    Love the tour! Thanks! On the bar stools, I'd go with metal ones and then put a grey cushion on each (like the kind that ties to the back or a rubberized bottom). I too have had cats, and although I loved them to pieces, they shredded my house - even on wood chairs they will scratch around the edges. Metal is kind of your only cat-proof choice that I can see.

    @chantilly6727 Před 3 lety

    If you get new chairs, keep the old one so your kitty can use it as a scratching post because they need to keep their claws groomed. I threw my old chair out and she misses it and her claws have gotten so long and she won't use a scatch post.

      Hi it's me again. I was just thinking to save you money, I was also thinking you could buy chair covers (like you see in dining room chairs ) or nice pillow cases to put over the back of your stools , which would you could wash and still have the comfort. Just an idea to save money. Those stools really look nice and comfy.

    Hi i’m from malaysia just wondering after washing your dishes (you said mostly yours are hand washed), where would you put the wet dishes before arranging in your cupboards? Like from most households in my country, there will be a dish rack, on the counter next to the sink, we will leave it dry before keeping it. N usually the rack will be occupied most the time with dishes that are used on daily basis so some wont even get to go in the cupboard 😅

    • @thesimplechiclife
      @thesimplechiclife  Před 4 lety +1

      I just let them stand in the adjacent sink or on a towel - or I hand dry them and then put them away :)

Even though I’ve never actually made ravioli with my ravioli cutter or shaved truffles with my truffle shaver, and even though I really don’t know for sure what that thing was I got from my grandma but think it’s for squeezing citrus, I never know if I’ll want to truffle ravioli with a lemon sauce.

      I understand the wish for a clean nice house and it‘s cool if you aren‘t into pets. ^^ But "get rid of the cats" isn‘t a nice advice. If you own pets you are responsible for their well-being, you cannot simply get rid of them like an old thing. There are already too many pets in shelters etc.
