I like seeing how the flat is coming together, I rarely watch her fashion videos now but I always look forward to more home content! So it was nice to have such a long update on the flat.
There were a couple of things that I was wondering about. The first one is the pink lounge that someone mentioned above - I was surprised (well, maybe not really surprised - it is Freddy after all) that she painted all the walls this same colour. There is not that much natural light in there, and it instantly made the room look darker, almost dingy. Whereas funnily enough in the video, the kitchen looked much brighter, even though originally I thought it had much more danger of looking dingy than the lounge. Even with the covered windows it seemed surprisingly light.
The second thing: I'm a bit confused about her mixing metals in the kitchen. Based on her previous videos, she has seemed passionate about having all the metal/hardware match in colour and wanted to change even the socket covers to gold, yet her new hob, oven, and fridge have silver knobs and handles? Am I just seeing it wrong
The window stickers unfortunately look exactly like the stickers that they are, and the design isn't particularly dainty either. Freddy seems very happy with them - and her mum did an amazing job putting them on, so that is what matters. I wouldn't like the "frosted glass" myself because I have this strange need to be able to see out the window (not a claustrophobic thing, it just makes me feel happier!) and I might have opted for some net/lace curtains or something (or even a half curtain, don't know what those are called) if I felt I needed the privacy. But anyway that's a bit off-topic, the important thing is that Freddy likes it.
I like how the appliances look overall with their slightly retro vibe and I would love to own them, but I could never have something that says SMEG on it with huge letters, I just hate the name! So I'm a bit sad that that is preventing me from having pretty appliances

Fortunately there are other things that look alright!
Anyway, with all that I think the kitchen is still my favourite room. I like the green walls, and the worktop colour is very pretty, which it should well be after all the blood, sweat, and tears her mum must have shed for it! What a star she is, and Freddy's dad too. The result is great, but I'm not sure if it was worth it for them (Freddy's mum seemed unsure of this on her own video, but again, the important thing is that Freddy likes it and her mum seemed to ultimately think the same). I hope that Freddy gets really into cooking to make up for it!
