So you know our guest bedroom is essentially your bedroom, right?

I mean, at the moment it feels like the plant's bedroom, but sure.

Future simple

So basically, Sam, whenever he stays here, this is the room that he stays in, so I want you to have a little bit of a say in what goes where and how it's decorated, but I've basically called you here today because you have the big brain and I do not, and I need to put shelves on the walls, but I worry that if I leave myself to do that task, they'll all end up crooked and weird, so I called you here to put holes in the wall, basically.

So basically guys, I've bought a couple more things for the guest bedroom since I last updated you.

It literally makes me think of, um, what's his name?

Actually, that one's got a very Cogsworth look to it.

You guys might remember I got the little mirrors from Vinnie's in Pennant Hills.

I've got this big one here from the Lifeline in Pennant Hills.

I've also now picked up, when I was filming, uh, when I took my subscriber out to the shopping spree at DeSalvo's in Tempe, I got this mirror.

Actually, I think this may even be the most antique-y, vintage-y of all of them because

It says on the back here in, like, really old-looking writing, it says, the, key, what does it say?

Ah, that would be, because that's a lock.

Keyhole Furniture, 502 Glenmore Road, and it's got a telephone number.

So this, this is an excellent indicator of the age of this mirror because the telephone is 325896.

Guys, we haven't had, we've got eight-digit phone numbers these days.

That is a six-digit phone number, so it must be a pretty old mirror.

These were each $4, which I can, I can hear a lot of people screaming right now because

I'm almost certain that these are from Target.

I think they're from Target, and I think they were, like, $3 each or something at Target when they were brand new.

I'd rather spend the money at a charity store than at a department store anyway, so $4 each, and I got five of them.

They're literally just like a little black frame holding a piece of timber, and they're very, very light, so at least when I hang them up in certain places around here and

I put pots on them, they're not going to be super heavy, and I don't really have to worry about them tearing a hole in the wall or something.

My dad watches all of my videos, and the other morning when he watched one of them, he texted me, and he's like, Alex, please be careful when you put holes in the wall because if you hang shelves and there's no stud at the back of the wall, the weight of the shelf might rip a hole in the jib, Brock.

I trust him more than I trust myself to put holes in the wall safely.

Thoughts are, because I've only got five of these, I want to put essentially three above the bed, so like a nice bit of symmetry.

Ah, so Venus Whitetrap can fall on my head in the middle of the night.

And then I'll put the remaining two, I'll put one here and one on that side, with like really nice long hanging plants.

I don't think I have any long hanging plants yet, because they're all growing very slowly.

The longest hanging plant I've got is this potato.

I left this potato in water for two months and this happened.

So, yeah, so I'll probably put one of these, you know, up to hang down there.

So if someone comes in and is like, oh these are some lovely vines you've got growing, thanks, they're potatoes.

So you don't need fancy expensive plants, just grab a potato and throw it in water and forget about it and then it'll turn into some glorious vine sprouting thing that looks magnificent and expensive.

I also have these three, I also found these at the Tempe Salvos as well.

These are gold little shelf things that basically have like a mirrored base on them, like that, and they're in three different sizes.

And these are good because they have these little, they've got these little holes here, so they're very easy to mount to the wall like that.

So because they're uneven sizes, what is stressing me out the most is the fact that it's a really big commitment to put holes in the wall of your new house.

Like, it's a really big commitment because it's...

A little bit of SPAC filler to paint over the top of it, you're good.

So basically, I want to make sure that I get the positioning right, and because these are three different sizes, I kind of want them to sit...

Imagine this is the big one here, and then maybe one like this, and then can you put the small one up?

We could do like a pyramid scheme thing going on here.

I think it needs to be kind of like this kind of...
