- I like a simple and relaxing bedroom. While this is definitely not the most minimal room on youtube, it's a space that my partner and I enjoy and it works really well for us.
In this room tour I show where I store my capsule wardrobe and other clothes, some of my plants, and talk a bit about our seed pillows. I hope you find it interesting!

We sleep on organic spelt seed husk and millet seed husk pillows, and have organic cotton duvets from a German company called Grüne Erde www.grueneerde.... but you can find similar products from lots of different brands.

I´m Norwegian and very rarely do you see only one big blanket in Scandinavia/ northern Europe. Always two separate duvets. I think it is because of the cold winters. Everyone has their own duvet so they keep warm without anyone else pulling on it and letting cold air in.
Mind blown with the seed pillows!
I implemented your method of having a specific spot for both me and my husband to neatly fold our "can be worn again" clothes and it's made such a difference! Those clothes no longer end up on the floor! I love all the great ideas I get from your videos. I've watched many of them more than once. Thanks for sharing you home with all of us!
Really happy it's working out well for you! I found it made a big difference too, all my clothes used to end up on the floor and picking wrinkly clothes off the floor definitely didn't encourage me to re-wear them.
I loved your bedroom. I'm currently working on de-cluttering my room so this was perfect inspiration. I also really loved the idea of each person having a blanket. My boyfriend is always hot and I'm cold, so it seems logical for each person to have something for their comfort level.
Laura Neuzeth If you both sleep more comfortably at different temperatures, having separate blankets is amazing -everyone gets a better sleep! I highly recommend trying it :)
Happy to finally meet another couple that uses separate blankets! I also get cold a lot easier than my husband, and we never have the "hogging the blankets" discussion in the morning.
thisisnancybot It's so great! I'm never going back to sharing a single blanket :)
One of the first things I thought when looking at your room is crazy how big American closets are (especially in the master bedroom) compared to the wardrobe you use. We really do live in excess. Your bedroom is very relaxing - thanks for sharing :)
I like how spacious everything looks and how your closet optimizes the space and lets you organize and see everything easily👍
Lovely!!..... Clean lines, simplicity and plants creates a feeling of peace and warmth. Well done:-)
bella angel Thank you!
My husband and I started using separate blankets shortly after we moved in together 9 years ago. We're both sort of blanket hogs and like to cocoon up when we sleep so we never had enough of one blanket for both of us. Also, like you guys, we have different warmth needs when it comes to the blankets themselves. Having 2 blankets makes the bed a little messier but we both sleep better. I'm pretty sure it's not "common" here in the US but it works for us!
The simplicity of your room is great! I was raised by a horder, and try to fight those tendencies but fail epically. I'm very glad I found your channel, it's helping me alot!
I would love to see a bathroom tour.
Haha! just found it. :p
Yes, please to more room tour videos! Loved your room...it felt so light and refreshing!
Great video! My husband and I have been sleeping with separate blankets for years. I really enjoy it since I am always cold, and he is always hot. My friends think it is weird, but then a few of them tried it with their spouses, and they are hooked. Thanks for sharing your space with us!
I love how simple and clean your bedroom is! :)
OMG, I am going to comment on the 2 blanket thing even though it's already been addressed.... I'm the only person I know who does this, and it's so nice to see I'm not the only one. Awesome video.
I've been so obsessed with the minimalistic style lately and I'm trying to redo my room and your room is great inspiration
Thank you for this video! Turns out I'm more minimalistic than I thought because I have a similar set up of my space without trying to be a minimalist intentionally. Pretty cool!
It looks nice and functions well. For not picking the furniture you got pretty lucky. Everything is nice and clean - it all looks like Ikea products.
Love it! I really like the idea of putting used clothes on a chair
I really like the idea of seed pillows. Going to talk to my husband about it tomorrow. We have kids and our pillows are always stained and we wash them so much and they're starting to get on my nerves. I think seed pillows would be really comfy. And the two blankets thing is something we'd totally do. He's always hot and I'm always cold. Great video.
THE DOOR IS ALREADY GORGEOUS
Another tip for sleeping warmer ist to use sheepskin. But it has to be a real one to work. You just put it in your bed, right where your back would be and sleep on it. Once I borrowed my mother's while I was sick and extremely cold - it had me sweating in no time and kept me almost too warm afterwards.
I loved this! for some reason your bedroom made me so happy! in part I think it's because its so serene and quiet looking- but the fact that there was only just enough (if that makes sense) made me happy.I also think the plants did it for me! I ADORE PLANTS! (I have a pothos that is over 250 ft long ) It was easier to appreciate the true loveliness. I don't know how common it is to have two blankets in the US it's not, but in my home my husband and I do; mainly because he like to be buried by a comforter and sheets and I prefer a lighter, summer cover. Your bed linens are really lovely btw! I am so interested in those pillows- I have serious issues with finding a pillow that fits me and wont give me a headache and a stiff neck; I'm definitely going to look into that! You are such a genuine person, It literally just emanates from you! you are one of my favorite youtbers! keep up the awesome work.
Ps- I'd love to see a bathroom tour!
De La Luna You're so sweet, thank you so much!!!
This is awesome...I am so inspired! I like that you are able to show a balance of minimalism and an actual lived in home!
Tara Peters Thank you so much! :)
It's a really nice, calming video :)
I would definitively want to watch other room tours! I used to like watching "ordinary" room tours on CZcams, but nowadays seeing all the crowded spaces that people show just unnerves me.
My husband and I use separate blankets too!
Yes! more tours of your calming and inspirational home please!!!1
I find your videos so relaxing. I'm currently re watching all your videos, they're just so calming and comforting :)
Totally in love with your room it actually inspired.
My boyfriend and I also have our own blankets, I don't know why it is uncommun. When I telil people they think it is weird.
I really love the furniture. Everything has clean lines and matches well. I wish I could get my amount of clothing down closer to the amount you have. Love your videos.
This video was awesome ! :) I would LOVE a minimalist kitchen tour as I am passionate about cooking and tend to accumulate things especially in the kitchen.
Kelyrin's Cooking & Bento Btw I didn't even know you had a second channel, so glad you talked about it, just subscribed ! :)
Kelyrin's Cooking & Bento Thanks so much! Hope you enjoy it :)
I really love the idea of using two separate blankets. Lovely video! :)
Beautiful! I love how simple and bright the room is. Also love the blankets and the seed pillows. I would love to see a bathroom tour if you want to do one!
seeing this made me want to clean and organize my home again! ha ha. Great video!
Please do make a tour of other rooms as well! Even though the furniture came with the apartment it's interesting to see how you worked around it to create a space that works for you.
And thanks for the idea with seed pillows! Never heard before that you could sleep on them at night (although why the heck not?) definitely going to try it. Been struggling with different pillows all my life.
Cheers, love your channel!
It is very common to have separate blankets in the Czech Republic. Nobody in our family have one big blanket.
Why has it never occurred to me to have two separate blankets?!? 25 years of "cover wars" with hubby can now come to a peaceful end lol. Beautiful room!
Separate blankets is the best! I highly recommend trying it out :)
I'm from Denmark and it wasn't until I got together with my boyfriend (who's from England) I realised not everyone sleep with their own duvet/blanket! He's used to double duvets, where I've never seen anything but couples having one each :-P
That was such a great video! The seed pillows that you and your husband have sound incredibly interesting. It's definitely inspired me to do a little bit of a clear out around the house this weekend - we have a lot more than we probably need!
Very nice! Good space for a European apartment. I think a nice big picture of the forest canopy for that wall!
My parents always had two seperate blankets/duvets. Here in the Netherlands it sure isn't uncommon. I am far worse, I have a 2 person duvet for myself while my husband just has a thin 1 person duvet. I really like to curl up in them :) He has two pillows though, while I have only one very thin bellysleeping pillow. So our bedding is very personalized to our personal preferences.
I'm from Canada and my boyfriend and I use separate blankets sometimes... but he's the first person I've ever done that with. Definitely uncommon.
I loved your room!! those pillows with seeds are so different and fun! :)
My husband and I use separate blankets. We cosleep with our babies. So I usually only cover my legs for sleep safety. He can cover up all the way up.
seed pillows are badass. so chic.
love this... so inspiring as i continue to declutter. my husband and i also have separate blankets. i too get cold easily so i have a warmer one. :)
I love seeing videos like this and I had to make my own, thanks for sharing!
I love it - it's so inspiring - thank you!!! I especially love the living decor :)
Very organized! Love it ❤️❤️❤️ Love the pillows lol
Your bedroom looks really nice, clean and calm, even though you did not choose the furniture yourself.
I also have an aloe (which is an air purifier as well) and a peace lily in my room and they make me feel so much better :)
Those pillows look super interesting, I will have to look into those.
And of course I would love to see more room tours :)
Oh and yes, I do know a lot of people who have two seperate blankets.
Personally, me and my boyfriend have just one.
So Beautiful, Pretty, Simple, I love your videos
Seed Pillows, Sounds like a good ideas !!!!
Thank you!
Some of my friends here in Europe have seperate blankets too!
The separate blanket thing is a good idea!! but we like to cuddle :)
Very serene bedroom. I love it.
My boyfriend and I also have our own blankets!! love the place! and the seed pillow is a really good idea, ona look for one like yours!
Nice! I share my home w/ my brother that lives rent free he brings his kids over almost every weekend. I have a small business & have to keep all my papers ect. In my bedroom and I did have an addiction to buying all kinds of beauty product, so my room is a mess!
Looks like an Ikea catalogue. I like the Hemnes line as well.
love this can't wait to get my new place together
This was so calming to watch :)
The bed thing is common. We visited Germany and have a friend in Austria that we also stayed with and every hotel and his space was set up that way. I live in the US and it's also not set up like that lol. Love European simplicity though.
wow your bedroom is gorgeous and so relaxing! xxx
I'm definitely interested in more tours. Tour all the spaces! :)
I loved your video! :) Your channel is great for people who are starting to get into minimalism. Also, I'd love to see a bathroom tour. Hugs from Brazil.
Michelle Gontijo Thank you!!
Your furniture is so much nicer than the ones that come with my apartment damn it haha x
Oh my! I want to try seed pillow too!!! great video! 👍🏼
I am going to research seed pillows now! So amazing! Very inspiring channel!
MissDeeCanada Thank you!! Seed pillows are a bit weird at first and take some getting used to, but I really love mine :)
Love your bedding!
do you ever have bug problems with those pillows?
That two blanket thing is really strange - never seen that before. I can imagine it working quite well, although double laundry!
loved this vid! def planning to look into the air purifying plants as I am OCD about 'clean air'....and super intrigued by the seed pillows. I've nvr heard of them and they seem really cool! great vid
Chontaine Frisby Thanks! There was a really interesting study done by NASA of the best plants to remove different toxins from the air, I definitely recommend checking it out! :)
LOVE it! Inspires me.
I think a picture collage attached by hanging strings would be super cute on the lined wall space! Maybe you moved out of this space though.
This is really nice! I went to Paris recently and I fell in love with the apartment that I stayed in, very minimalist and so user friendly! ! I would love to know where to get pillows like that here in the US.
I would love to see a minimalism document organization video from you! :)
I saw your kindle in this video, can you make a video telling us your review on it?
I want to reduce my book collection and thought that this will be so helpful.
Thanks
I really love the kindle and having all my books in one little device, but it's definitely not for everyone. I know some people who love physical books and don't like the experience of reading on an e-reader. If you want to not have a bunch of books around it's a really great option, but if you can I'd recommend trying it out before buying one to make sure you actually like using it. :)
I tried it it's not as pleasant as a book, but defiantly a very practical piece. I will downsize the books i own into my ultimate favorites. and download the rest on the kindle I'm getting as a start.
Thanks a lot :)
Want my bedroom to be like this!
wow! seed pillow! interesting!
Your room is very lovely! I don't know how common it is to have your own blanket, I am from Texas (have no idea if that makes a difference, cultural maybe?) and we just share one big blanket.
I love so many things about the design of this room (: you did a great job with it. Did you me too where you got the dresser and wardrobes from? Thanks!
Hi, I loved your bedroom. Can you share your motivation list? I really need some extra motivation to get up early to exercise. Thanks and congratulations on your channel.
Manoela Milena Oliveira
why do you want to exercise?
Hi, I want to exercise because I know it is important for my health.
Manoela Milena Oliveira : ) ok that is a good start. Now what specifically about your health would it improve? How would it effect your life and the lives around you?
That is a good and complex question. I have a back problem and I need to exercise. I usually do it for a few months after my doctor scolds me and, then, many things get in the way and I quit. :( Apart form that, I would like to improve my physical preparation. I don't know if the life of people around me will change, but, I believe everybody would be a little surprised to see me exercising since they all know for a fact that I am not a "sports person". Sorry for the long text, that was more like a reflexion. Maybe I need more discipline than motivation to exercise. rs
Seed pillow wow!
I realize this is one of your older videos but do you have a update video on the seed pillows? Do you still use them?
great tour!
I love how simple and functional it is. What's the name of your bedside light and where did you buy it if you don't mind me asking..
Helpfull video ! I really liked it !
I only saw the two blankets when I went to Germany.
Love the seed pillow idea. how do you wash it? do you just dump out the seeds to launder the cover?
New subscriber here! Love the minimalist look of the bedroom and I would absolutely love to see the rest of your apt.
How did you find a furnished apartment in Germany? I'm considering moving to Germany but I've seen that most don't even come with a fully equipped kitchen :/
spacheco92 Thank you! They are a lot harder to find, but possible. You have to search for 'möbliert' we mostly looked on www.wg-gesucht.de/ and another site we tried is www.immobilienscout24.de/ You can often find furnished apartments for shorter-term rentals because the tenant is going on a trip or working somewhere else for a while and those can be good to get settled in the city and look for a longer-term place.
I see you have Waikiki pikake perfume...one of my favourites with Mediterranean fig!
I live in canada and me and my husband have different blankets I get hot fast so mine is lighter then his
Lovely room. I love the plants and the pillows look great, I am going to try that, I think I like the look of the grain in your husbands pillow, did you say it was millet ?
Mrssupermumm Thanks! Yup millet husks. All seed pillows are quite firm but millet is definitely smoother and softer compared to the spelt. I'd recommend googling some reviews because there are also a few other seeds with different benefits and for different kinds of sleepers. :)
do you feel anything when using the seed pillows? Nothing pokes you? this is the first I have ever heard of such a thing.
Audri Granados
it sounds great doesn't it!! I'm thinking the pillow case liner could be placed in a quilted sham if you don't want to feel any texture. ?
what do you mean by "capsule" wardrobe?
Aisha Zee it's a selection of clothing from your entire wardrobe. generally you have one for each season. research Courtney carver project 333. she suggests a wardrobe of 33 items for each season including shoes and accessories. the goal is to have an interchangeable wardrobe that you love and reduce the stress and daily decision making on what to wear 😊
You're bedroom look serene and lovely. My husband and I used to do the two blanket thing a few years ago. We thought we made it up. Is it common in Germany? I'd love to know a bit more about the cherry pit pad. How do you heat it and why do you prefer it to a hot water bottle? Thanks!
Bookish & Belle It seems to be quite common in Germany, most people and hotels I've seen have them.
Honestly the cherry pit pad is a little strange, you have to heat it up in the oven on kinda low for about 10 minutes. I got it because we didn't have a microwave for a long time so I couldn't use those microwaveable neck/should wraps (I think they usually have rice in them?). I like that it's flexible and can be wrapped around your shoulders and the hard pits are kind of massaging in a way but I wouldn't say it's better than a hot water bottle. It definitely doesn't retain the heat as long as water and I always feel bad wasting power heating it up- in the winter I'd put it in the oven after cooking or in the warming tray but especially now that it's getting hotter out I don't like turning on the oven. It's also supposed to work well as a cold pad but I haven't tried that yet.
haha wow this got long, basically I wouldn't really recommend it - as a hot neck wrap it's a good option but just as a heating pad for cramps or the bed or something I think hot water bottles are probably better. :)
Thanks for the info. I guess I'll stick with a hot water bottle. I do have one of those rice pads (a stuffed animal actually) but I can only use it as a cold pad because I don't have a microwave either.
I think it's quite common to have separate duvets in Denmark, but probably not so much in the UK. Which country are you living in?
Interesting, I live in Germany :)
+My Green Closet Yes, it is common to have a blanket for each person. In our case we have 3: one for me, one for my husband and one for my daughter ;)
Where do you live now? I'm sorry, if I missed you telling it in one of your videos or in the comments.
You are way too neat, i would lose my mind if i had to keep everything in such perfect order :P
Hi. Where did you purchase your drawers please??
Keep chairs empty, and use a basket in closet. ,and do you get bugs with the seeds or rodents? Nice apartment. Judi Grace StoryCorps.
love it 💜💜💜✋🏻💕
