    from an amateur writer, it honestly means so much to an author when you buy their book. i know people hate on buying books just to never read them but even just as decor, buying books os awesome! it means writers get to keep writing and booksellers stay in business! ❤

    Jenna, try putting a shim under the front of the red bookcase. It's a small, plastic wedge that will help your bookcase lean flush against the wall. More sturdy than velcro.

  • @MiaMultitool
    @MiaMultitool Před rokem +137

    Maybe you can figure out a frame for the acrylic glass of your coffeetable in matching colours out of some light wood or something. Then you still can take it off, but the "edge of shame" will not be visible anymore and the acrylic doesn't move around the top of the table. Love your content Jenna ❤️💜🧡💚 Greetings from Germany.

      Came here to leave this comment myself! Most of these little floating guys have a tiny lip or two tiny “fingers” just below the shelf. You place the metal shelf just inside the back book cover and fit the edge of the back cover into those little fingers or small ledge. Magic!

    Love how your apartment turned out! Cutting plexi is definitely not the easiest to do by yourself. Custom art framing shops or stores that offer framing services can have special cutters that could do it if you find yourself in need again (they might even do it for free). You may also be able to order a piece of glass through them cut to custom size as many work with glass companies for mirrors, etc., if you ever went that route.
    You could also get those suction cup hardware attachments for glass table tops to help the plexi stay in place.

  • @sunshowers186
    @sunshowers186 Před rokem +9

    it looks fab! I really like how you've maximised the spaces you have. With that Ivar shelf you're using for art supplies - there's a cross wire thing you can attach at the back to give it more stability so it doesn't wobble.

    You should get a bit of glass cut with 10 and 5 inches overhang and put horizontal glass mounts on the legos! Acrylic will scratch easily unless you poly coat it.

  • @reeepingk
    @reeepingk Před rokem +1

    Jenna, tip for cutting/snapping acrylic. Score it more than you think you need to. Then, get a straight edge (like a level or piece of wood or something) and CLAMP it on top of the acrylic on the edge of the table (basically where your left hand was when you were trying to snap it). That'll prevent the exact issue you had.

  • @brandysears3546
    @brandysears3546 Před rokem +1

    My suggestion is to put a wedge of folded cardboard or something under the edge of your red shelf. Scared the stuff out of me thinking of it falling. Sending support, love, and kindness from Lexington, Michigan, USA.

    My daughter reads incredibly fast. I remember when jurassic Park came out. I was working, so it took me a while to read it. I got done on a Friday night . Saturday morning, I gave it to her and told her it was a great book. She was about 13 at the time. Around 4 pm, she gave it back and said she read it and loved it. She read all the Harry Potter books in 2 days. It was incredible.

    Great job, Jenna- you're awesome! Watching you put your place together, takes me back to my younger self 30 years ago! Now, at 55, I moved back to BC with numerous 26' U-hauls, got rid of sooo much stuff even before I moved-.....and, my son has signed me up for 'Hoarders', lol! Anyways, I just stumbled onto your vids because I, as well, am a crochet/knit fanatic, and interior designer- and, you truly crack me up!! I enjoy watching you make (sometimes wing) projects, it's my style too, lol! Looove the lego coffee table! Cheers!

    the "book" shelves: there is a little clip on the inside on the shelf that you slot the back cover of the bottom book onto, so that the shelf support itself is hidden inside the book and "invisible", so the books look like they're floating and not just sitting on a metal bracket
