YESYESYES paint your ceilings!! interior designer here and people typically think it’ll make the room feel smaller but it actually makes it feel MUCH larger! it brings your eye up and makes the room feel cohesive. i personally painted every ceiling in my apartment the same color as my walls (pastel yellow and pink 😊) and my landlord LOVES it!! dont be afraid to paint them!!
It all depends on many factors, such as the amount of light entering, the type of atmosphere you want to achieve, and above all the type of sensations. Colors express a lot how the space becomes and the atmosphere that it provides, something that you have to be careful with i think
I’ve always liked lighter walls and ceilings, since it makes a room seem bigger and brighter especially doing the winter where it tends to be dark in my country, with the sun setting at 3pm most days. I’ve also always grown up in homes with all whit walls, so I might be bias
Syd, there's an Eco Lifestyle wall swatch in the misc. category that has the split between colors! There's also one in Jungle adventure in the stone/brick category!
Syd, your aesthetic, skill for decor is just unmatched!!! ❤ keep up the great content! I could literally watch these all day 😩 I’m also going to try this challenge though I’m still trying to get better at building and landscaping.
Syd!! Omg I painted my closet orange and i love it. It’s a little pop of color in my neutral bedroom. Also it matches the wall behind my work desk and it makes these areas feel so much brighter and happier
Congrats on your new place and have fun decorating! Ive been at my new place for years and still haven't finished decorating so I'm starting to think its a fun but never ending experience 😂
I painted my ceiling purple, but it got over the tape onto the upper walls a little, so wait for your walls to dry and hang a large sheet before painting your ceiling. btw love your videos dw my Pinterest is the same style. but cootles to you for actually being decisive.
We painted our bedroom ceiling, it's honestly no different than painting a wall, super easy! Just use a pole extender for the roller brush and tape for the edges. We painted it like a dark terracotta with white walls and it's sooo cosy, feels like our little cave or something
I painted my ceiling a pale purple like pastel and it was really fun and made me happy every time i looked up. i also had pale purple walls, one wall was pale pink. but my deco was all gothy and the trim on all the windows and doors were black.
For Halloween you should do a tiny house based on a Halloween movie like Caroline, corpse bride, monster house, etc. Or tiny houses based on like Michael Myers, Freddy Krueger, slander man maybe, etc.
To answer the question have you painted your ceiling yes I did! My dad moved to a new house and he had painters come and paint so I asked them to paint my ceiling black once it was dry and everything I came in and added stars and a bunch of other stuff so now when I can’t sleep I can stair at the stars!
Have not watched the whole video yet but had to stop and mention a cat that you could have and would adore... they are Russian Blues and hypoallergenic. I can vouch for them as I am HIGHLY allergic and can totally snuggle with a Blue!!! For the best Feng Shui, you should always have your desk arranged so that you are facing the door, it brings in the most success for your financial endeavors. Promise =)
i wanna move and i kinda wanna imagine a place that i can find in the future. kinda like manifesting :D i cant move yet but i know what i want from a home
i'm recovering from anorexia atm and always eat when watching your videos because they make me feel happy and relaxed. thank you so much for always creating such lovely videos and a safe place to hang out!
Mee too. Im recovering from depression and insomnia and for the last month i have been able to fall a sleep because i watch syds videos. I always fall a sleep super fast when i watch her videos❤. Good luck with your recovery hope u are doing better!!!!
U know what I love the most about Syd’s channel? Her integrity. There’s nothing she uses that she doesn’t credit the creator or inspiration for. That’s so refreshing! Enjoyed this video as usual ❤
I would love to see you do another Pinterest build using a wheel to pick an adjective. Like "wacky, fun, cute, moody, gross, etc." And then use that adjective in front of the search "Frilly kitchen" or "Scary bathroom"
Lol you told your boyfriend it’s Barbies dream house, not Ken’s dream house. 😂 My sister has a vaulted ceiling in her bedroom and she painted that part to match her feature wall. It’s like a dusty purple color and it looks really cool.
I painted my bathroom ceiling (and the walls) pink and it makes me so happy every day. If you're thinking of painting any ceilings at your new place, I'd say go for it!
I have so many different moods, so every single room in my house is decorated differently!! I’d say go for it if you want to, and don’t worry about cohesion. My kitchen is full 70’s, my bedroom is whimsigoth, and my bathroom is like jungle hippie. It makes me so happy.
You struggle the same way I do. I am a gothic queen but also adore pastels. We are ascetic twins. My ceiling is painted in my room is painted. It’s a cream to match my light blue grey walls.
OMG Syd! If you search Arctic Monkeys - AM album cover, that is the "art" that you have!😂😂😂 All this time thinking that you were a fellow Arctics fan and it was a LIE hahahaha i can't😂😂😂 Sad realizations aside, your style is amazing ✨ you are so talented ✨
12:27 talking about painting ceilings, it wasn’t that hard actually. I helped my nana repaint her house, walls and ceilings because they had been stained over the years from my papa & cousin.. the walls were easy but the ceiling wasn’t that bad, just needed to remember to use not a lot of paint unless you want it dripping back down on you
It took me way to long to realize that what Americans call ''closet'' is more like a small room with shelves and hanging clothes rather than a piece of furniture
ahhh i love your videos sm! its so cool to see you moving and i love when simmers do this to help them w their houses !! you deff did it the best that ive seen
This was such a cute build!!! You summed up your styles perfectly at the beginning lol. I have that same problem and have just accepted my future home will be “each room is a different aesthetic” 😂
When we got our house, we painted all the rooms different colors. I really wanted to paint the living room ceiling (the room is light blue) and my bedroom ceiling (dark forest green but blue leaning). My fiancé and his friend who was the contractor disagreed with me and the ceilings stayed white. I regret that! In the other rooms, the white ceilings are ok.
You should check MIA MAPLES! she's also Canadian and she painted her ceiling with clouds! an turned her house into a beautiful fairy dream home. Please check her out! she is a sweet heart! you and Mia Maples are literally my 2 fav youtubers. (very different content) 💖💖♥
As someone who has been researching bathroom remodeling & what not to do so you don't have problems down the road, *NO* wallpaper in bathrooms with showers or tubs. There's too much moisture going on in those spaces. You want an eggshell or semigloss, mold & mildew resistant paint & a really good ventilation system. The humidity in bathrooms with showers especially means wallpaper peels off the walls & creates the perfect environment for mold. If you have a half-bath, I would make that the super-ultra moody one with all the wallpaper & keep the bathroom with the shower as the tile heavy, fun, bright, bathroom. Penny tiles, subway tiles, etc. If the structure of the house will support the weight, tile the floor, the entire shower & tub area, & half way up the walls all around. The less porous surfaces in a high moisture environment the better! And avoid large scale tiles unless they're on the wall. They pose a slipping hazard IRL.
hmm...hi i watch alot of your vids and really liked them.. you explained alot, im curious, why when im with another sim, say like building a rocket, it pops up they discovered rocket skill, and they help for hrs, yet when i manage that same sim a couple days later , they dont have it, i tested it on another sim for cooking, my skill went up, and again when i checked them it still at 1... any thoughts????
I put dark wallpaper up in my bathroom and the humidity destroyed it. Totally peeled off the walls within months! I just spent the weekend painting it orange and honestly, it's way more a vibe now anyway! Wallpaper in the bathroom is just for Pinterest apparently
I have a similar situation going on at my mom’s house. My room is an en-suite and the room decor is pink bubblegum fairy pastel princess and the bathroom (which was renoed in my emo years) is checkered emo slasher hot topic-esk
Hi! We painted our ceilings in my childhood home and it made it so fun and unique. We had beautiful burnt orange walls and my mom put that same paint colour on our hands and we put our handprints on the ceiling! I still look back at how colourful that home was with the best of memories 🥰🥹
I repainted our ceilings white because the place we moved into had weird stains on the ceiling. It was a textured ceiling and it was soooo frustrating because the texture meant paint didn’t roll on evenly. So I would only do it if you have a smooth ceiling.
I have the same two brain cells fighting for dominance… it would be cool to see you make a build where you have to combine them as cohesively as possible.
I love this video but I still am struggling to find a way how to lift the items in sims, i know how to make them bigger and smaller but i can’t find a way to lift them so if anyone can help I would be grateful
Hi syd could you maybe do a challenge where you build a house in the shape of a letter and then you furnish the house with an asthetic that starts with that letter that would be cool ❤❤
