Room makeovers without consumptions are the best and the most real and creative ones, I can relate much more to them!! The room-set-up makes so much more sense, brings practicability AND visual calmness AND movmentflow AND is more eyes-pleasing and easier to clean AND ....to win this sweet corner in the light makes so much dedication and curation to collecting thoughts, reading, painting nails....I love how much the space is about the activities and flows of Julia: this is so down-to-earth and paradise-ish at the same time

Love, love, love this! For real, you could do a whole $0 ADHD series. Sooo sweet and Julia was both adorable and so cool to open up her space like this ♥️🌸🥰

nothing is more in tune with the current cost of living crisis than these $0 makeovers and it's so inspiring and comforting to see what a difference decluttering and rearranging makes! you can tell julia adores you by how your mannerisms are so similar - she has been looking up to you for her whole life! great job with the vid, love the nook and the cool and warm tones. your channel has been extra exquisite lately.

My brother was born when I was 8 and he just turned 50! I still call him my Baby Brother. Love the love between you and your sister!

Absolutely love these zero money make overs! Your respect and support of how others live is so heart warming

Wanted to comment the same thing. Are you by any chance a mother? Well, I might have teared up even before I had a baby, hihi

I have been so veherryyy obsessed with this series because this is what I have been doing with my mother's house! Basically reorganizing, re-layout-ing, reducing, refreshing...LOTS of deep cleaning. We are both on a budget, but the bigger challenge honestly is that I am currently sharing space with her, and this lady has a lotttt of stuff and is emotionally attached to much of it (to be fair, many of her pieces are antiques or family heirlooms). So I have had to figure out how to make her space work for her in this age of her health /safety & retirement activities, while also not being able to get rid of/replace too much😅🤔😵‍💫and then also try to make myself feel comfortable in the remaining space I have for me😄Anyways, it's sooo helpful to see all your tips in action in these makeovers. It gives me hope we will get to a "finished" state over here, it's been a long process. But thankfully each stage has gone smoother and smoother. Thank you SO much again for these makeovers!

I love the freedom you give people to be maximalist and eclectic. So much of this space is beige and minimal. 10 piece capsule wardrobes where blush is considered a “pop” of colour. Bare counters with a single concrete vase holding one twig. It’s lovely for some, but the rest of us have stuff and ephemera. This room embraces your sister’s quirks and habits and helps her stay true to her.

Excellent tips and the apartment looks fabulous without spending any money! I loved that Caroline stuffed the droopy slipcover on the chair. As a fellow diabetic, my tip to Julia on corralling used diabetic test strips and needles is to collect a few cute vintage ceramic vases and keep them near where you typically do your testing. When the vase fills up you can dump the contents in a "sharps box" as medical waste.

I completely agree that her space was already so cute!! It made me nervous doing a “makeover” actually bc I wasn’t sure how much I could improve. And in fact, lots of changes we made were just lateral moves to *freshen up*. She has a great creative eye

What kind of miracle has occurred in the Winkler family to create four siblings who all seem to genuinely like each other, enjoy their time together, have in-jokes and references and lovingly roast each other but never so much that it might hurt anyone’s feelings. I don't think I know a single sibling relationship that's better than "begrudgingly tolerate" so I am completely bowled over. Like, please teach me this magic.

that reading nook is so perfect! i love how the space is so cozy and full of personality!

The pictures at the end of the video. 🥰 Great and realistic makeover especially for someone with ADD or ADHD. It used to drive me nuts that my daughter would not put her stuff away. When I finally thought about how her brain worked and helped create storage that she could see and access easily, and use within the space it made both our lives easier. Excellent work, Caroline!

You are SO real for these $0 makeovers, they're so exciting yet still grounded and realistic. I love the idea of using what's at hand.

Caroline, the man who I thought was my forever left me yesterday. My heart is absolutely shattered and I am completely devastated - but your video got me to perk up and smile. Thank you so much, you have no idea how much I needed that ❤ Beautiful makeover!!!

Omfg. THANK YOU. Seeing you working with a space as it's lived in FOR an ADHDer. Loving this video, as this is something I've been struggling with so much recently. Sincerely, an ADHDer who is terrified of trying to reorganise their home.

Room makeovers without consumptions are the best and the most real and creative ones, I can relate much more to them!! The room-set-up makes so much more sense, brings practicability AND visual calmness AND movmentflow AND is more eyes-pleasing and easier to clean AND ....to win this sweet corner in the light makes so much dedication and curation to collecting thoughts, reading, painting nails....I love how much the space is about the activities and flows of Julia: this is so down-to-earth and paradise-ish at the same time

My older sister and I are 9 years apart in age and we are super close, too. She’s been my hero for as long as I can remember. A good older sister is a gift to be cherished.

Caroline, is everyone in your family adorable and talented? You all have some good genes. The photos at the end made me weepy...so sweet. This makeover is perfect. p.s. my two daughters have the same age differemce.💕

I agree with your sister, someone will trip on that small table. I like what you did with switching the cushions.

The test strip struggle is so real - they end up in the most *random* places 😅 Loved the video!

Wow, wow, love everything about this video. You and your little sister remind me of my daughters. It’s such an incredibly sweet relationship to witness. Julia’s apartment “makeover” is truly a work of art. You keep surprising us with simplistic ideas that make such a big impact in a space. Well done!

The chemistry in your entire family is just pure gold. Really jealous of that special bond all of you guys have together. Also very nice make-over. I wish i could achieve that in my apartment

Thank you so much for this! As a fellow ADHDer, I am coming to the realization that I need to have specific homes for everything I own with no ambiguity about where something should go. This is a good reminder that storage can be cute AND functional. Also, have you ever had the experience of seeing someone in a video/photo who kind of looks like you and been creeped out for a second? I look vaguely similar to Julia (not a dead ringer, but close enough at a glance) and had the same haircut about 10 years ago and this video mildly gave me the heebie jeebies.

This is such a good concept. A $0 makeover that is actually $0. I love the critical look at what will be functional to live with. Brilliant and realistic! Great job Caroline!

Aww the „Mäppchen“ was such a throwback to German elementary school :) I completely forgot about mine until now! Loved this video and the energy you have with your sister!

Aw gosh you remind me of me and my baby sis who’s also 8 years younger. Every time I petsit for her and my mom I deep clean and redecorate her room. It’s so much fun.

I woke up groggy, with a sore throat, one of these meh days... and here comes Caroline Winkler. Woman, you have a gift. Thank you for this relatable and inspiring video. It's fueling my day.

why am I bawling my eyes out at the sister pictures! so adorable. sisterly love is the best! can be the worst lol but mostly the best. great job Caroline. loved it!

I love this apartment! Julia is so cute! She looks like younger version of you!

So sweet. I ike your sister's style and you definitely added cohesion to it and elevated the space to feel more adult like. Childhood photos are so precious at the end too so sweet. This is such a wholesome channel for adults and in a great way.

I love, love, LOVE these spend nothing makeovers. It's such a refreshing contrast to much of the consumerist content out there. I would love to see you extend this series to other areas of life (finances, health etc.) in a way I think only you can!

You’ve knocked it out of the park again! literally the best room makeover series 👏

THANK YOU for speaking on the ADHD organization and drop zones!!! Ever since moving out of my parents' home 6ish years ago, I have been able to fully lean into my own organizational needs!! The amount of tiny bowls and plates and catch-alls make everything seem SO much more manageable because the clutter is CONTAINED!!! I've been loving the ability to put things where it best suits me, not just put away to be forgotten about. I tend to be a big tidier even with the ADHD because otherwise I know I will be a disaster... I've formed habits/routines to make the quick clean ups/organizing/tidying part of my day and it's been SO HELPFUL!!!

It was cute before, I was sceptical that there was much to be done (I'm mean, I know) and I didn't even know what you meant when you said that Julia's apartment has the fairy cabin vibe...but you actually made it into a fairy cabin literally! A-dorable! The mirror made all the difference, you literally made a micro entrace space with it, and the bag and the shoe shelf, which were there before. The library nuke, it was already perfect how you arranged it before you even hanged the art and then it just became a watercolor fairytale painting that we all dream of live in...And I really appreciate that you left the piano book shelf corner as it was. Actually there was not much to be done, but your changes are magical! You are a witch! I love you all!

I love that you show the before and after twice for the furniture. My brain REALLY likes that

Adored how realistic and relatable this is. Genuinely inspired. Love you guys x

It looks so cozy and makes sense now! Julia’s voice sounds just like yours, Caroline! ❤

Big sisters and little sisters are blessings. I have a big sister. Caroline has both and I am jelly. I’m shopping my house the last few days and my kids have never witnessed it. So far it’s pretty entertaining

oh my gee, I love Caroline's relationship with her siblings AND she did an incredible job at redesigning a space with already owned decor and furniture. I always feel this pressure that I need to buy an entirely new set of things to make a space work, but this was a great reminder that that is not the case. I volunteer my apartment if Caroline ever does a subscriber makeover in NYC!

Love the photos of you and your sister. My sister and I are 10 years apart and I love her to pieces! 👯‍♀️

YES! Caroline these videos have been so helpful. Refreshing a space is such a mental break, such a fun "puzzle" for the brain to work through, and it really helps refresh your life a little bit. I am moving into a home and also finally going to settle into a space and feel comfortable decorating it with more vigor and less "I have to move out of here soon" so your videos are so wonderful in helping me figure out the mindset to go into setting a space up with. I also have ADHD (and so does my friend moving into the home with me) and I think what we're really missing are adorable clutter catchalls. It's such a good reason to go antiquing for trinkets and containers, and such a good idea for all the clutter we just simply leave everywhere.

The way you introduced Julia as your good friend from the same mom loll I came to your channel for the decor tips but I stay for your humor - you're the best! Another beautiful and REALISTIC makeover. Love!

Love. Adorable sister banter. The space looks great and without buying anything. Rethinking how we use spaces makes such a difference.

Mr. & Mrs. Winkler...don't know what you did, but you did a BRILLIANT JOB in bringing up your 3 kids. Have never seen such true love and closeness amongst siblings. So wonderful to see in this day and age.

Not instant tears on the family pictuuuures 😭 this is the best series on youtube right now. Just found Caroline at the beginning of 2024, could not be more obsessed!

I absolutely loved this video! Seeing you & your sister interact was adorable! I love this epic transformation especially the reading nook. ❤

I'm vacationing in Fiji but OF COURSE had to take time to watch Caroline's new video. Girl, this was better than cassava chips, reef snorkeling, and sunbathing! Thanks to your sweet sis for opening her home and heart and to you for always being wholesome, real, funny, and whip smart!

Omg, I am German and I had this pencil case even in the 2005 era!! Love the video. You and your sister are super cutee :)

This was such a delight-informative and affirming 💫

The photos at the end of the video were the sweetest thing ever! You transformed the room beautifully. Keeping it clean and tidy is sure to be a lot easier now.

I like that you discuss how there is not always a need for new decor. Though the struggle is not buying more. This video helped give me a different perspective in the constant redecorating/organizing of my home.

Loved this sissy episode. Keeping it real with no buy and lots of humor. Well done.

As someone who lived in Richmond, VA, right after college, and had a lot of friends who went there during college so I visited every weekend, we all WISHED we could have had as cute a space as Julia's when we were living there getting our undergrad and grad degrees. Richmond is such a fun, cute, creative town (with amazing food and an incredible art and music scene). I feel like Julia's space, both original and made over, epitomizes the city. Also, Zoo may actually be the cutest dog who has ever lived.

I love this series!! It’s so refreshing to see a sustainable makeover without having to buy a bunch of new things.

Thanks Caroline! Love the window area, the new styling makes for easier access to daily habits! You and your little sister are so sweet, loving the baby photos! Lovely story of friendship ! I totally enjoyed the room transformation without spending a dime!

I love this video. You are so blessed to still have your sister. I lost mine back in 2002. It made me smile and cry to see you two interact. I think you did a great job on Julia's space. What great memories you made together. Thanks for sharing it with us. ❤

Gosh I was here for every step and yet my jaw DROPPED at the end comparing the before and after. You are so genius and so is Julia! The greatest gift you can give an artist is more room to let creative energy flow. Also was smacking my face at the voices, as the 2nd oldest of 5 siblings we do the sameeeeee voices with the youngest hahahaha. My fave Internet family ❤

That's fantastic Caroline! And not a penny spent! Looks beautiful, cozy, and user friendly! I would never leave that corner. Only thing needed if one were to buy anything would be a larger rug.

I’m bookmarking this one for future (maybe daily) needs. My mom always said the best events (books, movies, music, etc.) give you belly laughs AND move you to tears. Too many funny, beautiful moments in this video to enumerate. Thank you for making my day! 🥰

It's so trippy hearing Julia talk, because you guys have such similar voices. Love from Australia ❤

Stop!!! 🛑 So ADORABLE! I loved it and loved all the sweet family photos at the end!!! ❤

Such a beautiful creative family. Love the relationship you all have with one another. Carolyn, thank you for this makeover. I have been wanting to redo my livingroom but the finances haven't been there. Tomorrow is the day and I will use what I have in house. Wish me luck!
