    Hi, welcome to my apartment! In today's video, I do a minimalist apartment tour and show you all around our simple, minimal and cozy home. We've lived here for two months now, and we're very happy with how the space is turning out. Of course, there's lots of work still to be done. So I'll keep you updated as we give some spaces a little make-over.
    Lots of love,
    🌼 Vera

    Your home is very warm and inviting. I love what you have done with less stuff and yet it still feels complete. I am trying to resist the urge to BUY the things you have in your home that I don't have in my home and instead think "What do I already HAVE that could serve the same purpose. (Like the ladder holding the throws) My first instinct is "Oh I need to get one of those..." Which defeats the entire purpose of this video right? Same thing with the ads and sponsorships. I have to resist the urge to purchase because you are encouraging us to live with what we already HAVE😊 Not buy this thing to fix your problems

    Our homes share so much in common Vera, from the soft colour palette of blues, greens and light woods to the round dining room table and chairs.
    I used to have a trendy bedframe which was difficult to assemble, very low and not particularly comfortable.
    Would not swap my divan bed which is super comfortable, easy to transport/assemble and has 4 large drawers underneath for storing bedlinen, towels, nightwear etc.
    Bathroom colour not my preference either but if it is brand new would be a shame ( and very expensive) to replace.
    I think by simply adding white towels the space would look much fresher.
    A fresh green or blue paint above toilet will look lovely but id probably add a picture rather than shelves. Shelves may be difficult to clean and clutter builds so easily.
    Even our choice of bedlinen is very similar- i have one good quality cotton set which goes back on bed after washing and never needs ironing.
    YES please to a wardrobe tour!
    PS im with you 100% on removing shoes and when i move next year im hopeful for a hallway which will have room for shoe storage and hooks for coats etc !
    Thanks for sharing Vera- oh and your kitchen is immaculate 😊

    Thank you for being so gracious in showing us your home. To answer your question, Vera: All your rooms are lovely. I was especially drawn to the kitchen, bathroom and toilet because they have been renovated. Having a separate toilet is such a neat feature. I also like the fact that your kitchen cabinets don’t have any knobs, pulls, handles or visible hardware. The minimal aesthetic with clean lines and design of your furniture is something that I look for when I shop for furniture.

      Thank you so much!! Yes, our old apartment was a little bit bigger, but close to the same size, and it also only had 1 bedroom. I have to say, I really like having a bunch of smaller rooms as opposed to two large rooms (living and bedroom). Somehow it makes everything much easier to decorate and organize. And yes, I agree about the spraying hahaha. Thinking of having a toilet in the bathroom always has kind of weirded me out in a way, because the bathroom is supposed to be where you get clean. :) So I also really like having them separate. But if you clean and disinfect it regularly, I'm sure it's no problem. :)

    I love the light and relaxing look your home brings. Having a natural colour scheme with pops of favourite colours blends so well. Having just a few items on services brings them out nicely to see. I would love a wardrobe tour. Your home will bring do much joy and a fun adventure as you both make it your own ❤

      Thank you!! Yes, I love those too. :) With the exception of a few walls that we want to paint, we'll definitely keep the original colors for a while :)

    It all looks wonderful; thanks for sharing. It will be fun to see how the new paint and balcony turn out later on. One day at a time. I'm not a bath person either, used mine maybe 3 times in 10 years. Have a super great week.

    This is such a lovely apartment. I only found your channel recently and it's really inspired me to simplify my life and home. I've done the living/dining room already and I almost feel a sigh of relief any time I walk in! ❤ Now to tackle my home office, which I fear will never be as uncluttered as your workspace!

    I loved the living room. Especially the dining table and chairs and the Oak furniture. It’s very peaceful and welcoming. My mind was racing with ideas for your bedroom and office area and balcony!
    I know you’ll make each of these space’s beautiful in time and that’s the fun of buying a home of your own. You can live in it for a while and enjoy gradually improving each area. I chuckled when I saw your office bookcase and “The Tao of Pooh’. After your wonderful vlog talking about that book, I ordered it straight away and have loved diving into its delightful wisdom!

    • @SimpleHappyZen

    Thank you, Vera. Your home is lovely, bright and gives the illusion of space. My husband and I recently renovated our apartment with new flooring and I'm trying to keep clutter and ornamentation to a minimum. This change has felt very liberating, as if a huge weight has been lifted from our shoulders. I love your style of simplicity and realize I still have a long way to go to achieve similar goals. But I will keep watching and remain patient with the process. Thanks, again, Vera.😊

    Your house looks lovely Vera. The kitchen is a real winner with all the cabinets to put your stuff away and your livingroom is cozy. Succes with all the painting you still want to do. I’m sure the whole house and balcony will become looking wonderful.

    • @SimpleHappyZen
      @SimpleHappyZen  Před 11 měsíci

      Thanks Carlien!! Yes, the kitchen is so beautiful. :) Can't take credit for it though haha, since it was already here when we moved in. I really didn't expect to love the high glossy cabinets, but I really do. :)

  • @francineh.7825
    @francineh.7825 Před 11 měsíci

    Oh such a lovely home, you have decorated so it so beautifully!! I love the coral accents and I love the tv stand. I have almost the same exact dining table - the round shape is very nice and pleasing to the eye. I don't have a favourite room because you did such a great job of creating a cohesive look so there are touches in each room that are beautiful! You both must be so happy!

    I too find your home serene. I love your choices of furniture and appreciate your explanations of why you've made selected certain items. I miss seeing any image art on your walls (I have a few selected items in most rooms. It's also another way to bring in color and positive energy. I guess I'm not a minimalist but you do inspire me to pare down a bit more!! Thank you.

    • @SimpleHappyZen
      @SimpleHappyZen  Před 11 měsíci +1

      Thank you so much!! :) I might include a bit more art on the walls in the future. For now, we had literally like 100 different holes to fill in all of the walls of the apartment, that the previous owners left behind. So I wasn't that keen on adding more holes hahaha

    I have a soft spot for blue with oak. I like the pops of green and coral too. The rounded details do make it more homey to me.
