How can we submit photos for “what would Drew Do??”
Sold! Lol I just ordered one for my parents from your video.
*_Thanks for the good tips. I love the style of the rooms!!_* □ ❤️❤️❤️
I love your ideas but you hang those picks with 2 hooks the hard way, just get picture wire to go across both hooks then you only need one nail or screw in the center. Thought maybe that would help, keep up the great work!
You're amazing just started watching your channel I predict you're gonna go far Isee it coming 💥
Ok but he doesn’t get enough appreciation for how hard he works. Every week he comes out with a new video. He has to think of DIYs, or find somewhere to decorate and make a plan for it on top of editing EVERY WEEK. Thank you Drew you’re and inspiration and I strive to have your work ethic. ❤️❤️
and on top of that it's all so pleasing to the eye that he manages to create
He has a million subscribers. He's certainly doing something right. It's the hair I tell ya. LOL! He's got that charisma, uniqueness, nerve and talent and he makes it all look easy.
Agreed, he's a hard worker... I desperately wait for his videos and he always leave with a positive feeling within ourselves...
Aww this comment is so sweet! I wake up everyday looking forward to making content for you! ✨ Thank you for tuning in weekly and watching ❤️
@@remembertodrinkh2o102 Drew’s not bad to look at either !! 😉
Here's a tip for ya. When using a paint roller, don't press too hard on the wall because your forcing paint to the roller edges which will leave roller edge lines. Instead gently place the roller on the wall and let gravity guide the roller. Go slow so you're not slinging paint off the roller. Also when drilling a hole in a nice piece of veneer furniture place a piece of masking tape over the hole area to prevent the veneer from splitting while drilling.
Thank you !!!
What about when painting the ceiling?
Weeeellll, that depends. In Germany we mostly have ingrain wallpaper in rental apartments and you better put some pressure on your roller if you want full coverage!
Fully agree though with smooth surfaces. Don't load the roller with paint as well. It's easier to add than to take away
JUST for revision LOL 🥰
Tip 1 : Add vertical space (e.g shelfs)
2: An additional seating/ storage( storage seat/ decor ladder)
3: Add a mirror ( reflects light making small space look larger)
4: Linear prints ( strides make appear things taller and wider)
5: Hang curtains as HIGH as you can !! ( always works😉)
6: Rugs ( adds separation to a space and consolidates a particular area)
7: Sconces ( perfect light solution and doesn’t take space + Drew says they look cute 🥰)
8: Lighter colour palette ( makes a small space looks airy and large)
9: Storage drawers ( maximizes space and looks organized and hidden away)
10: Colour Again !! ( lower down colours to make it cohesive)
Thank you. We’re looking for this comment

My small space tip: use plants!!! real or fake greenery/flowers add so much life to a small space and really help to stop it feeling stuffy and claustrophobic 🪴💐
yess!!!!
100% this.
I put up hanging plants in my house, what a difference it makes.
I'm redecorating my small loft apartment and sooo many of these tips are so so so true! It's all about maximizing space and having multipurpose items!
Yesss 100%!! Have fun redecorating your loft!
Haha I keep on seeing you commenting some videos I watch while I'm subscribed to your channel, how weird it is 😅
Can't wait to see your home decor journey !
I got into the masters program at UC Berkeley! I am so happy and want to share my happiness! Can’t wait to use all your ideas in my new apartment!
Best wishes!
wow! so great!congrats!
Congratualations!!! You must be so proud of yourself :) good luck!!
Congratulations!
congratulations!
I think Lone Fox is incredibly talented.
and works hard too!
We’re making over our tiny bedroom at the moment using your tips! It looks SO MUCH BETTER, more grown up, cosy and using the little space we have appropriately! Thank you!
Wow thank you for showing us this home security system, I was very worried about moving out alone. I knew I wanted a home security camera and was looking for what would be best but this is definitely the best I've seen so far. I feel way better about loving alone now.
Drew I love your energy and ideas. I am 64 and always telling my daughters they need to follow you
Old as dirt but learning lots to be used in redo on my space is happening as we speak.
Hey man, I would love to see you re- vamp an outdoor space, or a kitchen. Looking for patio inspiration.
I'll actually be sharing some outdoor content soon on both CZcams and Instagram :)
@@lonefox outdoor
I can relate to this very much! My hubby and I live in a tiny condo. Space is very limited. I had someone once tell me to add more storage to my space when I was clearing out my hutch. Instead of adding more storage, I opted to get rid of stuff I didn't love. I was able to take my parent's old hutch and really make it feel beautiful. I was able to pair down the stuff that I didn't need or love. I think adding more storage to a small space can also make your space feel even smaller. Pairing down your items, and taking stuff out of their original boxes really helps. Right now my biggest struggle is my art room. For 9 years, I have not been able to clean it and organize it. This year, my goal was to finish that project. The hardest part is organizing everything by category and pairing down stuff I don't use anymore. Plus, I have a lot of clothes that hang in that closet, where I store my art supplies. Making the two work together is so challenging. I just want this project done!!!
Thank you for sharing your encouraging and helpful suggestions and examples. I really appreciate how well you show respect, consideration, and kindness towards your guests and viewers. Blessings to you, Drew!
I finally went to the cane store in LA and the lady who owns it I believe was so nice and said nice things about you ❤️😌
aw so sweet! I actually just stopped there today haha
Great tips! How about a DIY desk? (or home office space) With so many people working from home it should be interesting to see :)
I did Upcycle my desk in my office makeover!
I ordinarily never click on the bell icon for youtube channels. I don't fancy the flow of useless videos other people tend to produce, especially if I only preferred one or two from their list. However, I want to see all of the videos you create. Infinitely many of your videos really hit the right topics, you're interesting, plus you are so well educated on the subjects of decoration and redesign.
My apartment has been driving me up a wall because of the scarcity of money, including all of the hand-me-down furniture my family gifted me. I have no idea how to decorate or add accommodations, so this video furthermore many other videos you've uploaded, are a huge help for me. Thank you so much!
Loved that video it was super helpful. I live in England and are homes and apartments tend to be so much smaller so we are used to making the most of small spaces, but these were still helpful ideas.
This video is such a lifesaver, I recently moved into an itty bitty north-facing space and I’ve been breaking my brain trying to figure out how to make it brighter and more comfortable!! Definitely doing the ottoman/tray combo and a mirror in my living room now 🙏
YES!! The Ikea Linbyn Mirror. Not enough people talk about this mirror. I have it in my small walk in closet and it is my favorite! Totally changed the way I use that closet. I can see myself from head to toe but it takes up no floor space. Great tips Drew!
Hi Drew, do you know how much you have inspired and encouraged me? I even watch your videos to cheer me up when I feel blue, want to give you a big big THANK YOU!
please continue making these types of videos! as a college student, this tips are ESSENTIAL!!
Great tips as always👍
Another dual purpose piece is a lift-up top coffee table where the top can raise to use as a comfortable work and/or dining space with storage in it too. Especially good for very small spaces where the isn't room for a desk or table or for anyone if you just like to eat in front of the telly 😊
We’re currently renovating a TINY Victorian house in London and this is EXACTLY what I needed. 100% good suggestions as per usual 🌟
Do you have an Instagram? I would love to see the transformation!
@@fahnakafranklin8211 I do! It’s @anothervictorian but I’m pretty bad at posting haha, I upload a renovation video every week here on CZcams though!
You need your own show on HGTV!!!! I love your idea’s 🥰🥰
I’m redecorating a small living room. That idea of a bench ottoman you can use as a coffee table or seating AND storage?! Why didn’t I think of that?? So smart. THANK YOU!! 🖤
Yes for the wall mounted desk! I’ve put one in in my bedroom attic bedroom and I love it.
You’re a lifesaver for posting this 🥺❤️
Your number 2 tip is number 1 for me! I think it’s the most crucial. Our couch we got from ikea. It’s a small sectional, but it lets out into a bed for guests. But our favorite part: it has a chaise so it has storage underneath! I practice minimalism so we’re always lookin for furniture with multiple functions.
very true
Another terrific job!!!
When you mentioned duvet, I thought you were going to say what I’m doing now. My apartment is small and not a lot of storage space.
So I like to just but pillow cases instead of pillows for my couch, but I’m also looking for a duvet to cover my existing bed comforter. That way, I’m not folding a big gigantic comforter for another.
A duvet is a great space saver.
Thanks Drew
Congratulations again on 1 MILLION+
I thank God for you every time I watch your videos...am so impress as per usual....continue to be creative Drew...one love !!!
Omg this is so helpful for living in nyc lolol
Omg, hi Elena, Its me yusaku. Haha good to see you here. Haha welcome to Lone Fox Channel! Hahahahahahahahaha
I want to live with you 🥺
FINALLY!! I"ve never been this early before! Drew, you should know that BOTH today and yesterday, I went to Winners (TJ Maxx equivalent here in Canada), HomeSense, and Marshall's to find decor to spruce up my space. As I shopped I could hear your various theme music in my head LOL and as I walked to the cashier, I thought "Welp, that's what I get for watching Lone Fox".
I've stayed at home religiously since last year so this was a big deal for me. Can't wait to watch this! I'm a newer subbie and love your content - hoping to see more small space makeovers this year!
Edit: I was wondering where the video was since I saw your IG post about tomorrow (today) morning and then realized the time zone difference LOL.
I love the scones. Especially, using the puck light! I think I’m gonna do it in my bedroom. Thanks for all the other chips. You’re great!
Your energy is so uplifting. It makes me want to change my house around. Paint!!!
This is so helpful for all the little downtown apartments. As a designer and brand owner I am struggling with space in my loft. Thanks to you I can hopefully figure out a solution. Thank you. 🥰
Thank you for all the work you put into your videos. I do room makeovers as well, and know how long it takes to film, edit etc. The quality of your videos is next level 😊👍
I love how clearly you explain things. your vids are chock full of valuable information and inspiration. Love you so much Drew!!🥰🥰
Definitely needed hacks! Also, I think adding 1 large single piece of decor/frame on the wall instead of creating a gallery wall situation makes it look more polished and comfy. Tones of pieces makes it look cluttered.
True, I did that too.
I agree, and the same for 3-D art. have one bigger piece instead of a lot of little knicknacks
Love all of these tips Drew, but could not agree more with your curtain tip!!! Soooo important!!!
My fav small space tip, nice deep comfy couch that doubles for guests.
This is my favorite kind of Lone Fox video!! I get to see your decor AND think about how to utilize all these great tips. Ty 🤗💜
These tips are great for any size space, not just smaller ones. Thank you for another well thought-out video.
Glad it was helpful!
Functional furniture is so cool to view, like that ladder desk. Appreciate the rule of 3 and all of your tips.
Love you Drew! Thanks for all your time! I am struggling with my small kitchen right now ugh 🤦♀️ ❤️
Mirrors and curtains are a must. The more mirrors the better in my opinion. Great tips. Thank you.
How can you even match the greenery with the wall !?😂😂😂 The space you design is amazing🔥🔥
This is exactly the video I was looking for! 🌿❤️
Your editing is one of my CZcams inspirations 😍😍😍
This is perfect timing, I’m about to move into a tiny student apartment this week!!
I love it. Thank you so much! Small spaces can be the biggest places.
This video is spot on. One of my tricks was to switch to tall dressers instead of the wide low ones.
Also, to heighten the bed and use underneath for storage. You've included this one before.
Fantastic tips! You gave me the one I was needing most right now and that was the tenth tip about color. I am in the midst of color choices'wall art mainly, and have been considering so many choices, but I knew deep inside that something wasn't going right in my guess-work, so much so that it was making me hold off. I've got it now. So thank you very much!!
OMG, it’s been two years since I watched the last of your videos. I’ve got a lot of catching up to do. 🙌🏽😍 Taking up notes on these tips. Thank you, Drew. 🤎
What a great idea the sconce puck lighting with remote. Ingenious.
Love all your ideas for small spaces. You are the "Grand Decorator of all Spaces." Looking forward to see what you will come up with in your next video.💕
Thank you so much Gloria :)
I just want to say that your videos is always so warm and fun, they bright my day every time. Thank you!
aw I'm so glad!!
These are awesome tips! I’d love to see a video like this for decorating when you have small children or pets! I love your style.
Drew I love how you have designed and decorated your apartment it’s fabulous and I am learning a lot watching your videos. My personal struggle is with color. I like a neutral pallet with some contrast I find myself getting stuck with to much monochrome or to much contrast. Could you consider doing a video on color alone? Showing how to style with neutrals using contrast. I’m always second guessing my color choices.
Thanks so much for the idea!! Color is honestly so hard, try looking on pinterest for inspo because they have so many amazing color palettes!
Also go to a paint store and they usually have brochures with 3-4 color samples that complement each other. See which ones you are drawn to and start there.
Thank you, Drew for the great tips! ❤️☺️
This video came at a perfect time, moving into my new apartment this week! Thanks Drew
Hi ! I love how you edited this episode. And I loooove the shelf desk !
This video was perfect I’ve been feeling like my space needs a little refresher so im feeling inspired
I liked this video so much. Thank you. I like how you analyze what kind of videos people are watching producing another great video.Thanks
Lots of great ideas Drew, thank you.
Thank you so much! I used a lot of your tips and diy ideas for my space 😊
Thanks Drew! Your videos and tips are always incredible. I love them and you.
Thanks Drew! I always enjoy your videos. I fell in love with the Ikea Joxtorp green lampshade in the Hovet Mirror slide you showed. I couldn't find it on their website but I got lucky and just bought it on ebay. I'm redecorating a small bedroom and I'm definitely using some of your suggestions. 😃
yay! Thanks Tammy, glad you enjoyed my video!! Good luck on the redecorating :)
LITERALLY THE PERFECT VIDEO 😍😍😍
Yaay!!! I've been looking forward to a new video! I clicked so fast! 💛
Love this!! I actually just bought my first home in Brooklyn,NY and started my CZcams channel to document my home decor journey! we don’t have a ton of storage so this is super helpful!
Definitely subscribing. Trying to support as many from my community as possible. Can't wait to see what you do with your home. Congrats on home ownership!
@@jhenenedawkins wow thank you so much!! This means a lot
Great tips!! I’m currently unpacking into our new house and it’s soooo much work! I’m getting too old for this, but a new job for Joe caused us to relocate from Atlanta to the North Georgia Mountains (I’m about 19 miles from Chattanooga, TN). We had been living in a hotel suite since 11/19/20 so it’s nice to have a place again! Plus, not paying $750 per week is also a win-win! Just noticed you have over 1M subs! 👏🏼🎉 Can I say, “I remember when”... LOL Hugs! 🤗
Was just looking for something like this early this morning! Right on time!
Love these ideas! I would love to see your take on some renter-friendly apartment decorating tips
