Your apartment is adorable. I have just a couple of ideas. Hang your small mirrow over your shoe storage. Covering the electrical box is perfectly OK. Hang a print over your dresser. Add a full mirrow standing in the corner of your bedroom opposite your night stand corner. It will add lots of light in your bedroom. Putting the legs back on your dresser will work fine. You may get tired of getting to your bottom drawers that are basically on the floor.

excellent suggestions

So glad to see you stood up for yourself and got the couch replaced. We work too hard for the money to let the stores take advantage of us.

Just an idea…If you turn the 8 cube organiser in the closet onto its side you could still use the hanging space above it for shorter tops!

What a novel idea 💡

Charlotte everything looks great! Im so glad you held out for a replacement couch instead of an easy fix. How exciting to have your own place and to be on your own! Im 69 and been married for 51 years. Married right out of high school. Im perfectly happy, but would have loved to have been on my own for awhile just to see what it was like. Anyway, you're doing a great job! Love, love, love your videos! Keep them coming.

We need part3 please 🤍🤍🤍🤍!!

Part 3, please. This is fun!

id definitely prefer a part 3!

Part 3 please it is good inspiration to watch you put everything together as your apartment becomes your home...

Personally, I love the vlogs wherein you move in or decorate. I’m a 62 year old university professor and yet I still have a deep fondness for the early days of my life wherein I was the one doing all of the “big girl things”. I also love decorating and organizing though I do very little of it these days as I’m widowed, empty nested, and tired. Lol so one summer night I came to KZread searching for dorm room decorating vlogs (I chose that because you young kids know about styles, etc. that we older girls aren’t aware of. I watched your Michigan move in vlog and have been watching ever since. Your new apartment is coming together beautifully and you have given me some great ideas for my own downsized living space. Your shopping trips make me want to redo my entire place. This summer, I just might do that. But first, I need to learn your mad furniture building skills because that sort of thing is definitely not my gift. Lol Good luck on finding the right job there in D.C. I visited there with my colleagues and students a few years ago and found it to be a very inspiring city. But please continue to be careful because we also found it to be a very dangerous city. But what wonderful opportunities await you there. I look forward to seeing all of it come to fruition.

Great video. I’ve seen people hang a mirror or cute print over electrical panels to hide them and it would fill up that entryway space too. 😊

Oh yea, I have a painting covering my panel :)

Hi Charlotte, im impressed by how great everything is coming together and the way it all fits so well. You are definitely way better than I when building all of your furniture pieces. Happy you stood your ground and told them you didn't want a fix and wanted a new couch, you didn't pay for something that was damaged and they should not have expected you too. Your doing so good at getting everything done and your apartment is looking so beautiful! Yes definitely stay away from area's you don't feel safe in. Hope to see a part 3 Thanks for sharing your apartment vlogs😊

We need a part3.no. i need a part 3 because i've never been this invested in a video before like i am rnw❤❤😂😂

A mirror above your shoe rack would be an awesome addition to a small hallway. It would cover up your electrical panel as well make the space feel lighter and bigger.

So glad the couch saga ended well!!!👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳

Glad Bob’s responded on the couch!!!👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

I completely love your videos and seriously I would be sooo happy if you share with us a 3rd part, doesn't matter how long it takes. (Psdt: I don't speak English, but your videos help me to improve my skills, so thankuu)

I discovered your videos the other day and couldn’t help but watch all the moving process! Love your vibe and love how long the vlogs are 🥹 I’m also moving soon to my first big girl apartment so it’s very inspiring! Greetings from Chile 🤍 looking forward to the next video!!

not me binge watching this series of u moving outtt loving it, congratss❤❤

Love your setup and your open layout apartment. I just moved into a modern apartment also. I am unable to do this but you should locate a desk or take your existing desk and move it directly against the back of the couch. You might have to move the couch a smidge closer to the tv.

It amazes me the money spent by this young lady for her first apartment. She must have a good job. When I first moved to DC in my early twenties, I was in an efficiency apartment and had some “hand me down” furniture and dishes. And I had a very good job! It took years to move on up to better housing until I finally bought my first home,,,later a beautiful condo which is nicely decorated and quite luxurious. But not something I was able to achieve at a young (early twenties) age. And most of my friends and colleagues back in the day were struggling like me. None of this is to critique…in fact I am impressed and happy for you to be able to have such a nice place full of luxuries. I guess I am just left amazed how you are able to spend so much money..

True. 😊 although she mentioned in her previous life update/q&a that she intentionally saved money from her previous job before resigning and also while she's still also earning from her being a content creator. She's still looking for a 9-5 job in DC now. 😊

I'm looking forward to a part 3 of you decorating and organizing your apartment.

Part 3, ofcourse. Also the long time spent building the drawer is some precious visual ASMR btw. I enjoyed the vlog sm!

Absolutely yes to a part three! 😍 love your series so far 🫶🏼 I have a few recommendations but all sent with love! Hang a print or mirror over your electrical panel, so nice to be able to do a final outfit/ makeup check on the way out and having mirrors in different places will be helpful to make sure you look good in all the different lighting. Mirrors also reflect light and make your space feel bigger and brighter! I saw an above comment where someone mentioned moving your tall mirror over by your dresser and I second that! Again because they reflect the light and having it across from the big windows in your living space will help reflect the light into your room making it feel bigger and brighter 🤩 please do a part three! Fully invested at this point 😂🫶🏼

Love the suggestions!! There isn’t enough room by the dresser for the big mirror 😫 but I’m def gonna do a part 3 with a nice workaround!

Hi Charlotte, I really have enjoyed watching the series of you moving in, decorating and sharing a part of you with us all. Most importantly using your VOICE when situations have arised in your new journey. You mentioned when you have stuff on the table in the kitchen about journaling? I would like to hear more about that on one of your blogs. I am also a journaling person would love new ideas...Elayne/Colorado

Yes, I also think a big art print ( tall and thin) leaning on the table or hung , but big enough to cover the electrical box. Everything looks great!

Part 3 please!! Loving the apartment! ❤

Your apartment is looking beautiful. Just a suggestion, maybe get a canvas print or tapestry of some sort to cover up your breaker box. I would also go to some thrift stores to look for some vintage art for your walls.

The chairs, couch and tables setup really ended up perfect

I've just found your channel and it's so adorable how much you enjoy and appreciate getting your first own apartment - I've felt the same way a few years ago (and still do!) so I can totally relate! I wish you an awesome start in D.C. with lots of wonderful experiences. :) x

OMG it’s the cutest! It already reflects your style and personality! ❤

Slayying the apartment series and taking us along your new chapter in life love the content!!!!! keep up the great positivity and the great videos cant wait to see more!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Charlotte. Loved the video! You’re doing such an awesome job decorating and organizing your apartment. It all looks wonderful! Love seeing you so happy coming together in your own space 😊🩵💙🩵💙

Loving this series! Your apartment is turning out so well 🥰

We need a part 3 for sure

Everything looks so nice.

I would love a third part 😁 Your appartment looks gorgeous ❤

That was really fun. I am proud of you for doing such a good job. Your apt looks like a home now.

Wow.. Charlotte, you are SO good at putting together furniture. Smart cookie you are!! Enjoy your cute new apartment. ❤

Well done you! It's looking beautiful and well worth all the hard work. You're so going to enjoy it all! xxx

I love your decorating style! And that couch is so comfy looking . Love the plants and the combination of real and fake. Great job 👍

Yes yes yes more moving vlogs….love them

I love the move in vlogs!

Enjoying what I hope is a series. I live in England no way I would never live in the US but I love watching people creatung now homes and enjoying new lives. Plus great idea to keep bread and bagels fresh esp in summer.

A part three would be great 💜

Well I really enjoyed this episode of Charlotte Builds Furniture!!! 😂 And some of your experiences with things going wrong have mirrored mine. At least it worked out! PLEASE do a part 3! ❤ Love it all so far. Have a great day!

I was going to suggest the same thing! Hanging a picture or a mirror over the electrical panel looks great! ❤️

i look forward to these videos so much!!

I am new. I love watching you fix your new appartment 🎉looking forward to watching you 🎉

Roll the rug end the opposite way and that takes out the end from curling so take off the wr items you put on the end of the rug

Charlotte your apartment looks As Always too too too beautiful beautiful and clean you are my inspiration and I wish you have a fabulous weekend 💫💗🥺🥺

You too!! 🥰

Hello Charlotte. Congratulations on your new flat. :) Had you thought of adding a few vintage or secondhand pieces perhaps? It would add a little character. :) I would suggest that you also could buy some secondhand furniture but I realise it might be too difficult getting it up to your flat alone. But maybe some artwork would be possible? I am English, and we tend to decorate in stages rather than all at once which has the advantage of being cheaper too. Anyway, enjoy your flat, I enjoy your videos and your optimism. All best wishes. 💛

I'd love a part three of apartment content!

Great video! I totally get the frustration of the time to build the desk. I’m 65, so my adult daughter helped me put together a desk that stated it would take under two hours,( it was closer to five!) Just a suggestion but I would move the chairs around by the couch,( group seating) and just have the console table behind the couch. I like the idea of a rolling island to give you another counter top. Either way the apartment is looking amazing! Love how the bedroom is coming along!

Loving the move in! Subscribed before to your channel bec of it last year. 😊 also, it still categorized as part of lifestyle, so i think it's great! 😊❤

your moving vlogs are so fun

I love this series! Just be careful showing your keys girl!

And about the coutch, I am proud of you 💪🏻

I really love your rug.

Hey Charlotte! Everything is coming along so great! Two helpful tips. Furniture felt pads, they will prevent scratches on the floor and easier to slide things. And maybe don't light the candles near the electrical box for safety reasons. Loving these videos, so happy for you!

Love your style! Looks so beautiful!

Very nice welcome to DC. Hope you like it.yes there are some bad areas. Keep your head on a swivel and beware of your surroundings.

Your new furniture is beautiful 🥰👍

Binging Charlottes apartment series in my cozy bedroom eating a chipotle burrito after just getting my nails done… What an amazing Friday night

Pro tip put ice on the curling part of the rug it will flatten out Also for the bathroom vanity area consider a lazy susan to hold all the bits easy functional and will blend in

You made great use of the space!

part 3 your apartment is looking so good😊

Def do a part 3!

The dresser I looks good. It matches the color of your breakfast table and chairs.

make a part three i love this moving series!!\

U sooo right lol I have fruit bowl in my entry way as well love milly 💕

I like your apartment. You could have extra counter top space if you would add underneath the counter items such as a paper towel holder, etc.

Love ur vibe ❤ girl

Saw the breakfast table. ❤

Part 3, please!😊

Part 3 please! :D

The green chairs would be cute dining chairs. Get a small round pedestal table for them. It could be your desk as well

The apartment is the perfect combination of adult and juvenile. Very perfect for your age. I think it came out great, nice work!

Charlott it looks sooobcute❤

Please do a part 3 of cleaning,organizing, and decorating your apartment..

Your apartament looks so cute it's coming together very well! I think you should put a tall mirror above your shoe rack to cover up the eletrical box, and a tall mirror would make the space feel bigger!

i love ur dog so much there so cuteeee:) also i think part 3 for moving

I love your apartment

Thanks for Sharing 🥰🥰 🇬🇧

Hi! I’m a new subscriber and I’m truly enjoying your vlogs because I’m moving too and we have the same home decor style ☺️

For sure make a part 3 video!

It all looks so lovely Charlotte, you're doing a great job. A small tip, you'll want to remove those little white stickers (The ones that tell you which piece goes where in the directions) from your furniture sooner rather then later or they will leave a sticky residue on your furniture. Also, welcome to the DMV!

That’s what they say when they loose your package. It sucks. I LOVE your apartment it looks so cute!

So proud for you baby! Your apt. Is beautiful. I do feel your pain with putting furniture together!!!

You did a beautiful job in your apartment part 2. Can you do a part 3 please?

Hi ladybug!! For the mirror I think it would be nice to put the dresser stands back on the dresser to make it higher since it so close to your bed I figure the bottom drawers would be easier to reach if they were raised a bit. But also when you hang mirror up maybe the dresser being higher would eliminate a gap between your dresser and the mirror once it’s on wall and so you can be in mirror more comfortably while standing up? And for the end of your video, personal preference I’d love the move in/ decorate w me content to be in one video but also I just get excited seeing your videos so I’ll take what I can get 😂😂💕💕💕 excited for your next one!!

Clone Wars, excellent choice!!
