I’m not being dramatic but seeing your videos uploaded literally makes my day, you help me decompress, and feel comfortable & proud of my minimalist space. My husband always says “you change or move everything so frequently “ and your video just reminded me that I’ve been doing this since I was a kid. It’s so fun!!

Hello Benita! I want to congratulate you for the way in which you manage to motivate and encourage the public through your videos. The simplicity that you show us in your daily life, conveys peace and the feeling that we don't need much to have comfort and peace. Thank you and keep up this fantastic task!! A kiss from Portugal😉

Hello Benita! 😀 Refreshing content - as a child, I loved rearranging my bedroom, my mom was so helpful and encouraged me to arrange it the way I liked it and choose colors I liked - I always felt so content and happy in my room, reading or listening to music. I do move our plants around (I like to give them equal sun exposure - kind of like not favoring a child - equal love for all of them❤). I really wish I could sew - this always seems like such a cost-effective way to change anything in your home. I should take a class 😀 For people who find it easy to sew, I am so envious - that hasn't been my experience. Decluttering - this is my number one favorite way to refresh - I just need to keep reminding myself not to repurchase. 😃 Bonus looks so happy, until your next video enjoy your week!🌸🌺🌸

Hello Benita, you are so talented! I like your ideas of "not spending money", it is eco-friendly and giving us a chance to feel and enjoy what is around us. Thanks you for all the creative tips. p.s. the handmade sofa cover and the painting are absolutely amazing, I love it!

@diannerabon3524 2 года назад

Your slipcover turned out amazing! I have an ottoman that needs a slipcover and have gotten as far as purchasing fabric. You have given me confidence that I can do it. I wish I could move furniture but am pretty restricted because of windows and door placement, and space limitations. It was my favorite thing as a kid to move my bedroom around!

@BenitaLarsson 2 года назад

So much fun! And you can totally create a cover for that!

I smile each time I see your cats - Bonus snoozing on your DVD player and the other doing her ballerina stretches are you painted were delightful !

I was lucky to be able to live in all three bedrooms in my parents house. I started as a kid in the smallest one. Then I switched to the parents bedroom when my parents decided to sleep separate because my Dad was a snorer and when they decided to sleep in their bedroom again, I moved to the third bedroom which stayed my room even when I moved out and just visited my parents. It was always an adventure to be able to plan everything. To this day I draw a plan of my room on paper and cut out my furniture in the right scale and move them around to find the best place for them. 😉

Lucky you, that must have been so much fun!
