 Hey guys, what's up? Welcome back to my channel. I woke up in a great mood this morning and I was like today is a day to film another episode of what would Drew do? Now if you are new to my channel or you have never watched the series in the past I've actually only done two episodes prior and this is basically where I take your guys's decor dilemmas and try to fix them on my side and give you guys some pointers and tips for how to elevate your space with maybe some new paint, some new furniture ideas, some DIY options, just things that can make your space just a little bit more enhanced based off my own personal opinions. Now before jumping in I always do a disclaimer in these videos because I never ever want you guys to think that I am telling you you need to do this to have a nice space or you need to buy this or you need to spend this much money or X amount here. Like these are just my own personal opinions and things that maybe the person who is watching who has these space or a few guys out there have a similar space to this could take a couple of notes and maybe incorporate these over years to come or however you would like to do so. I just like doing these to share with you guys how to take real life spaces and transform them into something you might have never think you could have. I do want to mention that today's video is kindly sponsored by Helix which I'm very, very excited about. I'll touch on them in just a little bit, but let's go ahead and jump on into fixing your guys's decor dilemmas. We have some really great spaces that were sent in. There were so many by the way, you guys always send me so many spaces and I wish I could answer all of them and I actually do try to respond to any emails that are just quick for me to respond to. However, I selected a couple of them today and the first one is going to be an office space and this was actually sent in by Lone Fox family member, Lena. So let's go ahead and watch her video. Hey Drew, my name is Lena. I'm 25 years old and I live in a small town in southern Germany and I could really use your help in our office room. The room itself is kind of weirdly shaped. We have three doors and a large window. So I'm going to show you the room now. You enter through this door and then you come into our office and on the left side there's a large window over the whole wall. We have three doors here. This one goes to the living room, one to the storage room and one to the bedroom. If you have any idea on how to make this space look more organized and more beautiful and more cozy, I kind of want to feel cozy in this room. I would be very, very grateful. Now as you guys can see, Lena has a smallish office space but the thing that I think brings to space to life is that window and that view. It's honestly stunning. I don't even, I probably could never ever not be in that space. I absolutely love the view she has from that window. I think it is beautiful and I really want to highlight that and kind of make this space feel a little bit more open and also maximize the storage space in here. Since this space is on the smaller side, something that I always do when I have a smaller space is try to maximize wall storage because we don't have a lot of foot area or like square footage to walk around in. We want to maximize our square footage vertically if that makes sense. So the first thing I would do is move the desk over to the right wall. Just have it up against the wall. You can have two computers. It does look like this desk is pretty long so I definitely think that it can suffice for doing so and something else I thought would be really fun because this area over here is kind of going to be the new focal point where the desk is, is to apply a peel and stick wallpaper on this entire wall. I think that will anchor this area kind of ground that desk space and also just add a little bit of interest to the space as well. And something else you guys have seen me do countless times throughout my own apartment is paint the window trim black and currently it's a pinky tone which I do not hate at all. I actually think it's pretty cute. However I do think if you want to add like a bold touch and then also kind of relate back to the wallpaper design and graphic that we did you can go ahead and paint the window trim black. I think that would really make an impact. It'll add a nice contrasting trim around that window and then also hang a simple curtain to that space as well. And all around I think curtains over any window looks really nice. Even if you leave them open 24 seven you still have that nice little touch of fabric on either side and it also can heighten the room a little bit. If you raise that rod quite high you could actually heighten the wall just visually with the curtain. And now that we have this entire free wall opposite of our desk we could then go ahead and create a whole entire storage wall. So whether this be with bookcases with floating shelving with any form of shelving you want to add here. I personally suggested maybe this simple IKEA system because it is affordable. You could paint it to a color scheme you like or you can leave it that raw wood which I think also looks amazing and you can totally add so many storage elements to this such as baskets or boxes. You can put books on here electrical equipment whatever you want to add. This is an area for you to really maximize your storage and just get the most out of your square footage. And then right when you walk in the little cabinet on the right side I think that whole entire section there should totally stay as is. I think it's really cute and fun. And then the light fixture the light fixture is also really nice. I like that as well. So that's really all I would probably do to Lena's space. Of course I'd maybe a couple more decor elements just to add some personality and life to the space but all around I think it's a great starting point in that window and view honestly a hundred percent. And before jumping into our next room which is a bedroom I thought it would be a perfect time to touch on today's sponsor Helix. Now if you guys remember back in my bedroom makeover Helix actually reached out and asked if they could send a mattress to me. So I went online I took the super simple sleep quiz which I think is a no-brainer. This is a great quiz that basically asks you how you sleep at night what your sleeping position is like and it compiles it all together and takes your information and recommends a mattress that would well suit you. So I actually got paired with the Midnight Lux mattress and I've had this mattress for about three months now and you guys it is the most comfortable mattress I've ever owned in my entire life. Now if you guys have never heard of Helix before they are actually a premium mattress in a box company meaning that they ship your mattress in a box directly to your doorstep. It is so simple and so easy to set up you could totally do it by yourself. I actually did mine by myself and if it makes you nervous to buy something like a mattress online Helix is really incredible because they actually give you guys a 100 day sleep trial meaning that if you after three months let's just say you do not like your mattress for the 100 day mark you can actually have them come and pick it up and you will get a full refund which I think is great because buying a mattress online can be a little bit intimidating but Helix has you covered the sleep quiz makes it simple and easy and all around I just absolutely love Helix as a brand. Now if you are looking to get a brand new bed definitely use my link in the description box below it is helixsleep.com slash Drew Scott because you can get up to $200 off of any of the mattresses and it ships directly to your doorstep it is truly a no brainer so if you're going through a room remodel or you just need a new mattress in general definitely check out Helix but let's go ahead and jump on into room number two which happens to be a bedroom. Alrighty guys so room number two this is one of my favorite ones in today's video I love this space so much just because I feel like there's going to be a very impactful kind of before and after this was actually sent in by Lone Fox family member James and he is so sweet let me share with you guys his video. Hey Drew my name is James I'm from Ontario Canada and I would love your advice on my space like many of us during this pandemic I actually moved back home with the family and I'm now living in my younger sister's room I would love your help kind of updating it to be more my style more masculine and more modern this is kind of my bed situations at the moment I have just this thin blanket on here and a few sleeping pillows nothing decorative I would love your help choosing a nice duvet and a few throw pillows this is my TV unit area and it's kind of just an IKEA shelf that is sideways that I put my TV on one thing that I don't like is the open shelving unit this kind of a lot of clutter so when you're laying in bed watching TV you just see all this clutter so that's my space I would love your input on how to kind of update it I would love to rearrange paint DIY or upcycle anything I've been a fan of yours for a long time and I trust you so as you guys can see he is currently living in his sister's room due to COVID which I know a lot of people moved back home or transferred spaces whatever it might be and you kind of have to make do with what you have so the first thing I would do in here is of course paint it this turquoise blue I wouldn't say is the most aesthetically pleasing color so I would go ahead and paint it something a little bit lighter and more neutral I actually opted for the color white dove for you which is almost like a warmer kind of gray toned white so it's a little bit different than your traditional stark white and of course I think we need a new curtain as well just to match our vibe and I thought a fun kind of bold curtain would be nice for the space since we're doing a more neutral tone on the wall and some more neutral elements throughout the space I think having a nice olive green curtain if you want to add that kind of masculine touch you were talking about now let's go ahead and talk about the bed because the bed is the focal of any bedroom so currently there is no headboard but I do know that you could buy headboards that are super affordable that you can just literally pop right behind your bed which give you the look of a full bed frame for a fraction of the price so I opted for a simple wooden headboard I found this one I believe on like Wayfair or something and it was under $150 so I think if you wanted to invest in a simple headboard or even DIY your very own simple headboard I think that would just add a nice kind of grounding space for that bed just going in with something honestly very similar to my own bedding I really love this bedding so much it has a nice simple horizontal stripe on it it's a creamy tone now this one is from CB2 but I found one very very similar from Target so I'm gonna link all those bedding options below for you do not forget about the throw pillows and throw blanket as well because coordination and kind of tying everything throughout the space is a great way to go so adding maybe an olive throw pillow to coordinate back to the curtains and then also kind of throwing in those neutral tones those warm tones black for contrast white for brightness just kind of keep those in mind when you're adding additional throw pillows or blankets now as far as the wall art goes currently we have two kind of like random artwork pieces and I'm sure you might want to change those up a little bit if they were your sisters so I think honestly keeping the frame from that banana print and just putting it right above the headboard in the center popping in a new artwork piece I found one for you from society 6 and by the way guys any of the recommendations for these spaces I'm going to link all the furniture pieces and absolutely everything I'm talking about below for you guys I think something else that would add some symmetry to this space and overall just make it look more visually designed is to add two matching nightstands so one to each side of the bed now if you don't want to go with two of them you can totally just opt for one nightstand but I think it would look a little bit more elevated with a new nightstand over there so I have a second view for the space as well which is going to be the TV section kind of media area in front of the bed so as you can see it currently looks a little bit cluttered it's not too bad at all however there is a quite a bit of stuff in that little bookshelf area so I do think just adding something super simple like some pull-out baskets and storing all of that all those contents that are inside of the bookcase currently instead of some pull-out baskets would be great and I actually have some from Ikea that I love and there really isn't much else like it due to this little space right here however just for an additional idea maybe adding a skinny kind of floor length mirror to the left side of the TV that you're able to use when you're getting ready whatever it might be and then maybe popping a little basket in front of it as well would be cute just to have some throw blankets or any additional storage that you might need as well so those are my tips for your room James I feel like you could totally pull off anything I could just get from your energy that you are ready to go so I hope this helped you out a little bit and let's go ahead and move on into room number three all righty guys moving into room number three this was sent in by Lone Fox family member Shannon and let me go ahead and share with you guys her video hi Drew my name is Shannon I'm from Arlington Texas first off I want to say I love your design aesthetic and I completely fall in love with everything you do on your channel with that being said I could really use some help designing my living room space my boyfriend and I recently signed at least to move into an apartment together at the end of February and we already have our main piece for living room it's a beautiful velvet green couch but I have no idea how to design around it everything that I find online is super eclectic and lots of bright colors but I kind of want to lean more moody and modern so if you could I could really appreciate your help thanks so when I started to go through the content that she actually sent me in the email there were some photos and all around this space is just such a good base for a living room I love it I love the floors I absolutely love the fireplace I love the amount of windows there is just so much to work with here I think you can go all out into some dark walls in here so the color I opted for was ink well by Sherman Williams which will give you a super super dark moody area but you still have the brightness from the windows you still have that fireplace and we're also going to add some more life with the furniture throughout so I would go ahead and start by painting a nice moody color to start that way you kind of just automatically start off with that moody vibe and anything else you add just going to attribute to it or you know kind of neutralize it so I just picked out a ton of pieces that I found online so Shannon can alter these to her liking and take away if she doesn't like it whatever she wants to do but these are just pieces that I personally chose we have something like a big rug for the floor which adds a nice coziness it also grounds our seating area with the couch and then we also have an accent chair we have a coffee table media console I think mounting the TV on top of the media console maybe adding a little bit of styling to that mantle area just all around I don't think you can go wrong in here and then as far as wall art goes we definitely need a little bit of wall art so I thought adding a nice little triptych above the couch I believe that's how you say that I might be butchering that but basically three pieces of art that kind of coordinate together above the couch area and the last thing in the space that I think really dates it is the current ceiling fan and that ceiling fan just looks not great in there I'm not gonna lie so I think something as simple as changing up that light fixture which is totally doable if you are renting this space you could pull down that ceiling fan store it somewhere until you move and just install it back in I swear to you guys removing and adding a light takes maybe an hour so if you want to live with that light for a full on year when you could have taken it down for an hour and installed a new one I think it's just a no-brainer I actually changed my light in my bedroom and I kept the old one I'm going to reinstall the old one when I leave and I will be good to go so yeah guys I feel like I just talked up a storm I hope that you guys enjoyed this video and this episode of what would drew
