I love how you are showing all the stages of your new house! so many youtubers buy a house and then dont show it until it is perfectly designed! It makes it seem so unattainable. I love how you are showing all the hard work that goes into making a home beautiful! Amazing! love ya Lyd
Seriously, I could sit on your couch and look at the amazing view outside for hours!!! When you opened the doors the whole living room became alive😍 Also, I want to tell you how much I like the fact that you feel more comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera and you’re not afraid to show us the real, every day you❤️
Hey Lydia! You and Carrie did an amazing job with all the IKEA pieces. I love the shoe storage situation. Very pleasing to the eye. Your house is just so gorgeous and when you opened the doors it was like looking onto a little piece of heaven. By the way you are looking beautiful and your skin looks great. You don’t know how lucky to have first of all, a gorgeous husband,second of all, such a neat and tidy one. Together you are the perfect mix. You seem to be quire enjoying your Thermomix. Might be checking that out and yes my jaws are hurting from the show Lucy and Ethel put on. You do know who they are I hope. Take care and c ya next time🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺
Going to IKEA is like going on a never ending adventure that you didn’t sign up for. I have to take a backpack with water and granola bars to recharge myself and also spare batteries in case I need to make contact with the outside world.😂 And I occasionally take a nap on one of the beds when the exploring tires me too much. 😂🤣
Loved every second of this. It was like a lovely graduation gift since you uploaded on Monday instead of the usual Sunday. :) I love Ikea, I get ridiculously excited when I get to go. Love the way your wardrobe room is coming together, looking forward to the styling videos! :)
I am so sorry that the responses to your last video were so frustrating. Just know that you have so many f who adore you no matter what and love spending time at the end of the day watching your lovely videos. Thank you for giving me something to look forward to every week!
If I could give you a tip for your new curtains, wash then without the spin in the washing machine or just on the lowest spin in the washing machine and then hang them up wet, believe me they will be beautifully straight. Learned this from my mom 😊 (sorry if my English is bad) greetings from Germany
I LOVE your bi-fold doors so, so much Lydia. When my husband and I move one day soon, that will definitely be a renovation idea!! Congratulations on all of your personal and business successes! Much love- JG
Lydia, I love how excited you get over the good weather. Weather chitchat is such a British thing... best enjoyed with a cup of tea and new garden furniture x
WOW!!! You were right… Your new closet/dressing area/goddess room is all of that and more! I know you're not done with it but, my goodness… It's just simply amazing already. Can't wait to see how you pull it all together - you have such beautiful aesthetic!
I saw you do you’re laundry. What I always do is hang dresses, nice tops, blouses etc on a hanger to dry. Not only go have less creases, it’s better for the shape and it takes a lot less space. Just hang the hangers on you’re drying reck (🤔 how do you say and spell that in English 😳) and hang you’re clothes like you do when you hang them in you’re closet. You will have to iron way less!! Lots of love, Esmeralda
Sharon Sears I think she's planning on it but is doing renovations bit by bit. Plus I think she wants to live in the space for a while so she gets a good sense of exactly what she wants/what works the best for that space. 😁
Yeh thats the plan :) this is just temporary until I decide where I want everything to go/where the best light is/ I need to live in the space before I know x
This vlog was hilarious. The banter between you and Carrie is priceless. I had a smile on my face the entire time. And can I say that I love Carrie. She's not afraid to show that she's intelligent. Love that girl. So glad you two work so well together. Makes it fun to watch. Love you, Lyds!
I’m sooo glad you uploaded today. One of my dear Co workers was found dead on her bathroom floor this morning. So gutted. Your happiness and smile has made me happy and feeling blessed. 💗 I would paint and turn your office cabinets and move them into your dressing room. 😁
Love how your closet area is coming along. Ikea is so ideal for organizational furniture. The lacquer plumps are amazing. Glitterati is my absolute fav!
yes I've been enjoying following you ever since I found and subscribed to you! you were at 270K at that point and I cannot believe how much you've grown since and your positivity and quiet strength just inspires me as well. On days when I feel put down at work, I come to your long vlogs and heal a bit
You're the one I prefer of all dear Lydia!!!❤💟 I love all you share with us, and I'm waiting for all your lovely videos!!! Thank you so much for all. xxxxx
Instead of ironing my linen curtains, I spray them lightly with scented water and smooth them out, the weight of them pull the wrinkles out. Easy l Peasy! Lol
I’m new to your channel and I’m now obsessed! Makes me happy to watch your vlogs I don’t care how long they are they are all amazing. Especially the sped up cleaning, something so calming about your vlogs 👌🏼 excuse me while I get back to my binge watching now 🤗
Lydia I love your videos! The house is so pretty with those doors opened up and watching you do laundry is so comforting lol. I wish I had a friend like Carrie! She’s so awesome!
im so happy for you getting your rooms decorated more to your liking. The shed looks like it will be an awesome space and I LOVE your dressing room the way it is laid out now!! Cant wait to see it with the proper shelving in the future! You and Carrie have such a lovely relationship, youse make me laugh!! 😂
I saw some others comment this too but I’m drowning in studying for finals and this was the best pick me up. Thanks Lydia for making my week so much better! ❤️
my favourite thing about watching your videos is when you are truly happy. i often find myself smiling and laughing along. ps. my 4 cats also love the sun and heat. :3
Have you considered doing a walk in cupboard on the right side of your dressing room? Would give you loads of storage and your dressing room will always be tidy
You should try the Decleor hydro floral rich cream for moisture. It’s so good, it works so well and every time you do your skin care it just smells like the spa.
Please, please, please start using reusable cups for your starbucks. You always plan on getting the coffee so it's not even spontaneous. And you drive there and back which means you really just need to put them in your car, get your coffee and put them in the dishwasher when you get back. It makes such a huge difference & it's super easy to do.
I freaking LOVE your backyard (garden) and deck with the flagstones! It doesn't even look real. I'm so jealous but also inspired. If you ever get bunnies in your yard, please, please show us. I grew up on the outskirts of Seattle and we used to randomly get rabbits in our yard, and the cuteness was nearly too much.
I honestly love love love all of your videos, they are always so interesting and soothing to watch, I love your style and the feeling you give off in every one of your videos! Keep it going because you are doing amazing 💗💗
what another great vlog. I could watch them for hours! Your new house is insane! I love seeing the progress of you and Ali putting your own touches to it and making it more of your own. Its also so nice to see that you and carrie have such a great working relationship and obs an amazing friendship you guys had me in stitches :). Cant wait to see more as I feel with each vlog we get to see more sides to your amazing, bubbly, hysterically funny personality.
True life: I follow Lyd's life updates more than my RL friends and fam 😂 PS. Lydia- can you please explain how the kitties do not run away when you keep that gorgeous living room opened to the back yard? I saw your IG story where they played with Ali and the lads lol, but are they content to just stay home? Do they try to escape?
I didn't simply like this vlog, I ADORED it 😍 I love all this content from the new house and I love the new house. We can really tell that you are much happier and relaxed. Coming from a rather small flat how do you manage to keep this house always clean and tidy all by yourself? XX
Okay Lydia I live for your vlogs 😂 you're just so inspiring and I feel like I can live luxury through your channel haha. I also love how you never sound cocky or rude despite being so successful
In Sweden we pronounce Ikea like the Swedish girl had said. The letter I is pronounce different in English then in Swedish so pronouncing Ikea like Eye-kea is the right way to do it in English :) Great vlog as amazing Lydia!
Lydia could you film a best friend does my clothing haul video. I just think it would be different to what you normally film and would be really fun to watch. Love your videos ❤❤❤
Hi Lydia, I’m not keen on the Lavender one but you have to try the ‘Lavender Escape’ one, its really lovely. They’re usually in Sainsbury’s, but you have to search for them!
This is one of your best vlogs! The whole section of you and Carrie going to, shopping and leaving Ikea is like me and one of my best friends...we chat some utter nonsense when she's driving and just laugh all day.... Your home is looking beautiful!!!! x x x
LOVE your vlogs and you Lydia!! but if you're going to have us watch your convos with carrie, or anyone else really and especially for long periods of time, can we at least see her on the camera too? It's kind of annoying to not be able to see half of the conversation happening. Not sure if the camera was angled like that because it was in the car or something though!
I love laundry.......takes longer than the cycle to put all of my clean and smell products in! Try the Unstoppable Beads 😍. I also use dettol antibacterial liquid! It's said don't use fabric softener on your towels as it takes the scotch guard off and that's what keeps them soft! Xx
Have to ask how is your garden secured for cats??? I have 5 but never allow them unsupervised in the backyard. Would love to hear how you catproofed yours! Thanks a bunch!
Carrie has an amazing can do attitude to everything she does; she is certainly a wonderful PA and friend.
SHE is the reason I watch this channel... I just want to punch people like Lydia in the face. 🥊

Girl I am LIVING for these glimpses of your home - simply beautiful! X

I feel like Carrie is handy enough to be a real life Nancy Drew.

Lydia, can you please ask Carrie to share the recipe of her brownies. My mouth waters whenever I see you guys eating them.
Aidana Sapidullayeva
Yesssssss!!!! 😍
Lydia hun have you ever thought about doing mondays and thursdays as you make mondays so much better x
I actually really like this idea! it would mean I wouldn't have to work Sundays anymore!!!!
I adore your friendship with Carrie. You both seem to laugh a lot together. We all need a Carrie in our lives.
Going to IKEA is like going on a never ending adventure that you didn’t sign up for.

This made me laugh so so much Samreen, real talk!!! x

Love your new storage units! Gives the room a whole new vibe. Love everything your doing to your home.
Absolute perfect timing!!! Been studying for finals for 3 days straight and this is the perfect study break!!!!
Kennedy Damm I feel you 🙃
Good luck lovely!!! xxx
I LOVE your bi-fold doors so, so much Lydia. When my husband and I move one day soon, that will definitely be a renovation idea!! Congratulations on all of your personal and business successes! Much love- JG
This is the study break I needed ❤️❤️❤️
Babe came in clutch to save me from exam madness. Thank you Lydia xx

I actually found your washing routine so interesting haha!
Ellie Does Life same here!!
Me too!
I love how you've displayed the shoes. One from the front. One from the back. Let's you pick which show quickly. Like a little shop.
You two have so much fun together. Made me smile how genuine you two are
You should look into getting the room done professionally by a closet company. You will be so happy if you did that and they do an awesome job.
Sharon Sears I think she's planning on it but is doing renovations bit by bit. Plus I think she wants to live in the space for a while so she gets a good sense of exactly what she wants/what works the best for that space. 😁
I want to disagree with you but she's everywhere with this storage/organization thing lmao
Sharon Sears i swear that’s the plan. I remember lyds saying something like that. She just can’t decide how to have it?
It’s a really difficult room with the slanted ceilings and windows, our bedroom is the same and I feel for her!
Yeh thats the plan :) this is just temporary until I decide where I want everything to go/where the best light is/ I need to live in the space before I know x
Omg I’m a zoflora addict but have never used it in the washing!! Definitely going to try this!! Can not wait until our local ikea opens next week 😬😬xx
Your friendship with Carrie is absolute goals! Everyone should only have their cheerleaders around them!! xo
This vlog was hilarious. The banter between you and Carrie is priceless. I had a smile on my face the entire time. And can I say that I love Carrie. She's not afraid to show that she's intelligent. Love that girl. So glad you two work so well together. Makes it fun to watch. Love you, Lyds!
Your home is gorgeous I love how you decorated it you truly have great taste
I’m sooo glad you uploaded today. One of my dear Co workers was found dead on her bathroom floor this morning. So gutted. Your happiness and smile has made me happy and feeling blessed. 💗
I would paint and turn your office cabinets and move them into your dressing room. 😁
Shelley Poole oh no, how horrible 😰
Sorry, dear.
So sorry for your loss! 😢
You and Carrie are the best! Also, the therapeutic benefits of WATCHING Carrie assemble flat pack furniture should not be underestimated.
The kitties must be excited!!!
Love how your closet area is coming along. Ikea is so ideal for organizational furniture. The lacquer plumps are amazing. Glitterati is my absolute fav!
yes I've been enjoying following you ever since I found and subscribed to you! you were at 270K at that point and I cannot believe how much you've grown since and your positivity and quiet strength just inspires me as well. On days when I feel put down at work, I come to your long vlogs and heal a bit
ugh!! i LOVE time lapses of you cleaning your dressing room. Seriously so relaxing to watch. Love you xoxo
You're the one I prefer of all dear Lydia!!!❤💟
I love all you share with us, and I'm waiting for all your lovely videos!!!
Thank you so much for all.
xxxxx
I haven’t smiled as much as I have while watching this video. You and Carrie together are hilarious!! Thank you for bringing us along!!!
How is it that Carrie knows everything about everything and u don't 😄 She is your grandma and u her grandchild ! Luv u Lydia ✨
Instead of ironing my linen curtains, I spray them lightly with scented water and smooth them out, the weight of them pull the wrinkles out. Easy l
Peasy! Lol
I really wanted you to step up your wardrobe game
I'm glad you did! It suits you perfectly!! Good job lydia xx♡
You just showed me today that no matter how much you spend on your sofas bags bar stools you can still go to ikea
Can you do a Q&A soon? Xxx Future plans and kids and trekking and any life goals etc. 😘😘😘
Ive been using billy bookcases with extra shelves for years. Best solution for me.
I’m new to your channel and I’m now obsessed! Makes me happy to watch your vlogs I don’t care how long they are they are all amazing. Especially the sped up cleaning, something so calming about your vlogs 👌🏼 excuse me while I get back to my binge watching now 🤗

You're my current obsession since final stressing me out your vlogs and personality bright up my day so so much 😍😍
I saw some others comment this too but I’m drowning in studying for finals and this was the best pick me up. Thanks Lydia for making my week so much better! ❤️
You look so freaking beautiful with that white turtleneck sweater!!!
“Oh I think it’s gonna rain” you reminded me of myself 😂😂
Love you lots lyd!!!
Love love love you!!! You are my rolemodel!!!!! Beautiful from the inside and out! ❤❤ from Amsterdam
As an IKEA staff member myself, I literally got giddy when I saw the title of this video! Love it Lydia!
my favourite thing about watching your videos is when you are truly happy. i often find myself smiling and laughing along. ps. my 4 cats also love the sun and heat. :3
Love your videos so much Lydia!! They make me so happy 😊 the kitty’s look like they’re loving the new house and being able to adventure outside!!
please do a bff tag with carrie!!
Love the outdoor part of your home. Looks so green and peaceful.
Have you considered doing a walk in cupboard on the right side of your dressing room? Would give you loads of storage and your dressing room will always be tidy
You should try the Decleor hydro floral rich cream for moisture. It’s so good, it works so well and every time you do your skin care it just smells like the spa.
Your dressing room is really coming along! It is looking so much better! Great job, girls!
I live in NZ and in my town we only have one starbucks let alone one with a drive through.. so jealous!!!!!
I love the new shoe storage it actually looks so professional, as if you had it custom made👍
That piece on balance is beautiful to look at everyday!
I was beginning to miss your videos ❤🎬
Please, please, please start using reusable cups for your starbucks. You always plan on getting the coffee so it's not even spontaneous. And you drive there and back which means you really just need to put them in your car, get your coffee and put them in the dishwasher when you get back. It makes such a huge difference & it's super easy to do.
Cannot believe how much Carrie sounds like a satnav!!!!! Loved this vlog and you!! Such an inspiration xx
I freaking LOVE your backyard (garden) and deck with the flagstones! It doesn't even look real. I'm so jealous but also inspired. If you ever get bunnies in your yard, please, please show us. I grew up on the outskirts of Seattle and we used to randomly get rabbits in our yard, and the cuteness was nearly too much.
I love you lydia you are one of the most humble and down to earth you tuber ever
yay 42 minutes of Lydiaaaa
I honestly love love love all of your videos, they are always so interesting and soothing to watch, I love your style and the feeling you give off in every one of your videos! Keep it going because you are doing amazing 💗💗

Absolutely loving you content and being able to spend more time with you at home! Please do an updated shoe collection for summer ❤️

Well, I can imagine a big pool on your garden 😍🙌🏻
True life: I follow Lyd's life updates more than my RL friends and fam 😂 PS. Lydia- can you please explain how the kitties do not run away when you keep that gorgeous living room opened to the back yard? I saw your IG story where they played with Ali and the lads lol, but are they content to just stay home? Do they try to escape?
I love stuff at Ikea as well. Your 'closet' room is coming along great! Can't wait to see what else gets added next :)
The house is SO beautiful , love the windows on the garden , blessings 💚💚💚💚💚💛💛💛💛💛
I didn't simply like this vlog, I ADORED it 😍 I love all this content from the new house and I love the new house. We can really tell that you are much happier and relaxed. Coming from a rather small flat how do you manage to keep this house always clean and tidy all by yourself? XX

Can you do more cleaning videos ? my night cleaning or morning cleaning ? love from Sweden
You and Carrie crack me up...Lucy and Ethel!!
Lydia, I loved this vlog SO much. You and Carrie at Ikea are hilarious, made my day!
Loved this super long video! Your wardrobe space looks beautiful by the way.
In Sweden we pronounce Ikea like the Swedish girl had said. The letter I is pronounce different in English then in Swedish so pronouncing Ikea like Eye-kea is the right way to do it in English :) Great vlog as amazing Lydia!
Lydia could you film a best friend does my clothing haul video. I just think it would be different to what you normally film and would be really fun to watch. Love your videos ❤❤❤
The dressing room is looking STUNNING!!!!!
43 minute vlogs !!! Yesss !!!
I use zo flora all the time I've never thought about putting it in my washing will have to try this thanks Lydia xxxx
I love your new shelves for your beautiful shoes, they look great! I love your cats, they're so adorable and beautiful!
Hi Lydia, I’m not keen on the Lavender one but you have to try the ‘Lavender Escape’ one, its really lovely. They’re usually in Sainsbury’s, but you have to search for them!
This is one of your best vlogs! The whole section of you and Carrie going to, shopping and leaving Ikea is like me and one of my best friends...we chat some utter nonsense when she's driving and just laugh all day.... Your home is looking beautiful!!!! x x x
YEEEEEY!!! Was waiting for this all day !!!!
omg will you tell us where Carrie's floral shirt in the end is from? So gorgeous and looks like Kate Spade!
Love what a great friendship you and Carrie have :-)
LOVE your vlogs and you Lydia!! but if you're going to have us watch your convos with carrie, or anyone else really and especially for long periods of time, can we at least see her on the camera too? It's kind of annoying to not be able to see half of the conversation happening. Not sure if the camera was angled like that because it was in the car or something though!
100% agree... don't understand why she wasn't visible. Very annoying.
I know, I always wanna see more of Carrie too!
Can you do a Very haul next please! So interested to see what you would purchase!
Really really loved it!! Great to see you back on form!! Xx
I love laundry.......takes longer than the cycle to put all of my clean and smell products in! Try the Unstoppable Beads 😍. I also use dettol antibacterial liquid! It's said don't use fabric softener on your towels as it takes the scotch guard off and that's what keeps them soft! Xx
Have to ask how is your garden secured for cats??? I have 5 but never allow them unsupervised in the backyard. Would love to hear how you catproofed yours!
Thanks a bunch!
You can put the IKEA Malm-bureaus back to back in the middle of the room as an island 😃.
