Hello everyone, welcome back to my channel or welcome to my channel if you're new here
my name is zoe and if you do not recognize my background, I
Am in my apartment right now today was my first full day in my apartment
This is where I live during the school year if you didn't know so I got here yesterday
And today has just been a super chill day. I took my time waking up. I watched a movie
I ate a chocolate chip cookie
That was really good that my parents left me and now it is like six o'clock in the evening
I don't know if six is actually evening or afternoon
but it's pretty late and i'm only starting this video now because
Yesterday I was shocked at how good the lighting is in my living room in the evening because the sun
Sets like right in front of my balcony window
Also, I don't know if you're gonna be able to tell in the video
But my voice is like echoing around my apartment and it feels like i'm talking really really loudly and I feel like everyone can hear
Me that makes me nervous
That's like the third siren i've heard today, but anyways welcome to today's vlog starting at 6 p.m
i'm
Super excited to show you guys what i'm going to be doing in this video because I bought some extra decorations for my apartment
And i'm going to put them on right now because I really want to film an apartment tour soon
So I want to make sure that like all my decorations are done. Everything is organized. Sorry about the sirens
So that's what i'm going to be starting right now
And this is also going to be kind of like a night in my life in my apartment vlog the sirens
how is a girl supposed to blog if you
Enjoyed this video definitely make sure to give it a thumbs up because that really helps support my channel
And also leave me a comment down below. I respond to every single comment and let's just get started
For those of you who don't know what my apartment looks like
I do have a move-in vlog on my channel
Which you can go watch if you want but i'm doing a full apartment tour very soon right now
I'll just give a quick little overview of like my living room area because that's the area that i'm going to be decorating
So you can see the before and the after so we have the door here
The kitchen is like in here separated by this wall
So I already decorated this with some frames right next to the door is a closet and then right next to that is this
Huge blank wall that has nothing on it
So this is one of the areas that i'm gonna decorate and then down there is like the hallway to other rooms
But then here is my couch a big poster of australia lamp a coffee table and then my dining room table
And then this is the other wall that i'm gonna decorate I used to have this little montreal sign on there
But I moved it to here
I'm thinking that I want to start with this wall because it's really big and I think it's going to be a long
Project and I want to do it before the sun sets. So what I got for this wall
I'm, so excited about it's the teza dream kit
If you've never heard of these it's like a website called tessa
And they have a bunch of collage kits that are like already printed pictures already chosen for you my apartment
Like the aesthetic of it is pretty much white
Everything I got is white. I actually got comments on that when I moved into my apartment people were like wow you really like white
Yes, I do. But I saw this tick tock of course
it was a tick tock it was like of someone's apartment and they had a collage wall and I just thought it was like so
Colorful so happy so I bought one for myself. This is one of them, which is so pretty
It's like girls of the beach and the sky is all sparkly
Like how pretty is this?
I went through the whole package yesterday and I was trying to like sort out ones that I didn't want and I
want every single one of them so I have 85
photos hanging right now and the other dilemma that I went through is I wasn't sure if I wanted to have
all the pictures like aligned straight or have them kind of overlap in like a
Mismatched like collage sort of way and so I asked my friends and it was a pretty close tie
but most of them said to keep it straight and so did my mom so I think i'm going to
Try it straight and if that doesn't work out then i'll just do a random collage
I forgot that I need some tape to do this. Do I?
Oh, okay
I have this tape in like a container because my first year I wanted to get like these matching container things
But I never use them so I have this and I have an extra roll. No, wait, what is this magic tape?
Is that the same thing?
Yeah, I think it's just normal tape. All right, i'm set to start
It's already golden hour as you can tell there's a shadow on my wall
So i'm first gonna count like how many posters or how many prints it takes to fill up one row and one column?
To make sure that I have enough because if I put all this work into it and I don't have enough posters. I'm
Not going to be happy
That's gonna work perfectly I hope
I am sweating. The camera doesn't really do it justice
But the sunset right now is so nice like the golden hour. I mean, I don't remember my balcony having this view
I'm pretty sure it's because like I lived here in the winter and because of like the time
Change the sunsets were so early and I was like either in class or like doing work in my room
But I had dinner last night right with this view and like the sunset was pink and purple
It was so pretty. I took a lot of photos
Anyways a little update on my collage. I went to go check my phone because it's charging in my room and I decided
for no reason to just make sure that I was right that there are 85 photos and there's actually
75 like I don't know why I thought it was 85
So I think after all that i'm just gonna do it kind of like an overlapping random scattered collage
So
I'm gonna take a break for a bit so that I can have dinner but this is what i've done so far
As you can see there's still a bit of top bit at the bottom
But I got like the middle portion done and now after dinner i'm just gonna like add on to the bottom and the top
It is 8 32 and it's completely dark outside. I have been hanging this for so long
This is one of the things that like I don't know what's wrong with me
But it takes me so long to do anything editing
It takes me so long assignments like essays take me so long readings. Take me so long
Thankfully since this is only my second night here. I have some leftovers that I brought from home
Yeah, i'm gonna heat this up to eat. I'm, like actually like i'm no energy right now
Take two
So
All right, I am finally done hanging up all the photos that took me so long
It is 11 11 53. But yeah, this is it
I'm not going to show you guys
Exactly what it looks like yet because I feel like the nighttime lighting just doesn't do it justice
So i'm going to continue this vlog till tomorrow
Good morning, I just woke up but i'm gonna leave my room right now to go make breakfast
But i'm gonna pass by the collage walls. I wanna just like record my reaction to seeing it like in the daytime. This is so
dramatic
I love it so much. It's so big. I feel like the pinks are so much more like
Prominent in the daytime so excited okay i'm gonna like make breakfast get ready for the day and then i'll catch up with you guys
Later to do the second part of this video toodles
Okay, i'm ready to set up the rest of the decorations. I'll show you what they are
Basically this entire summer. I have been rereading the harry potter series and now i'm re-watching movies
I just have part one part two left
So I really wanted to have like a little
area of my apartment that had some sort of harry potter decoration because it's like such a big part of me like it's always been
The book series and the movie series that I just like reread re-watch like all the time
so I saw these posters like literally two years ago on instagram or something and they're like
Alternate book covers, but I just found the artist's website and he had these prints on it
So I got them printed at posterjack and I have them here. So i'm going to show you guys what they look like
i'm not going to go crazy into detail because I know some people just don't care i'll have the artist's name here so you can
Look them up
so they just look like this and there's one for every single book and i'm
So excited and I got them printed on like actual photo paper on poster jack, so I didn't just like print them
And yeah
i'm
really really excited i'm gonna hang up in my dining room before I hang them up i'm gonna measure the length of the wall and
I'm gonna find the middle
I've read a number of books through
82 yeah 82 inches along. So the middle of that is 41
Okay, I think I measured everything right I have all the images laid out on the table how I think I want to place them
But if the
Pages make me smile like a fool
Maybe for once I won't follow the rules. I'll keep it
I'm so happy with how this turned out at first. I was gonna do a pyramid. So I was gonna do like one two three
And then four five six seven, but I like this so much better
it kind of looks like simple now that I know that I like how everything's placed i'm gonna add a bit more tape to the
Saying a bottoms song to my heart, but the ending was sad from the start
And then came along just an ordinary book
Okay, here is the grand reveal
So first, this is what the harry potter prints look like in the dining room space. I'm, so happy with how they turned out
i'm
So happy I did this instead of the pyramid. I think it looks so pretty i'll be eating dinner right here with this
In the background so happy with it. And now here's what the tesla collage looks like
So this is it like in context of the living room. I love it so much. It turned out so nice like it took me
forever but i'm so happy with how it turned out and it really like I don't know if you can tell on camera but
In person, it makes the living room look so big because it really accentuates how tall this wall is for reference
This is how tall it is how big it is
So that is the end of this video if you watch till this point
