My loves!
I hope you’re slowing down for the holidays and taking a beat. No episode this week in post-holiday haze, but will be back in the new year. Whether you had a happy holiday or a Moment of Hell, hope you recover too❤️
P.S. This is the happiest Baguette has looked all month.

Happy Thanksgiving, friends!
Taking this week off for holiday break and, inconveniently, stuck sick on the couch when I have so many projects to do! Although that part sucks, I can’t tell you how grateful I am for getting to spend time with you each week.
Thank you for your comments, your emails, your DMs, your nudes, and your ongoing support and patience for weeks I have to miss an ep. Y’all are the best little corner of the Internet, and I am so grateful to have you through these wild times.
Wish I had more to say, but now it’s time to take more cough medicine and gaze into the eyes of my very grumpy nurse.
Love to all of you,
Katy & Baguette

PSA, my lil Baguettes!
I’ve heard a lot of you are not getting notifications even though you’re subscribed. (Thank you for subbing!) The way to fix that is to go hover over my subscribe button and click ALL instead of PERSONALIZED.
YouTube is trying to keep us apart, but our love of DIY is the most powerful force on earth. 😘

🔥MOMENT OF HELL 🔥
Welp, party people, beware of pressing mysterious paint bubbles or you could end up like this ☠️ Might be a bit til my bathroom makeover makes it to the channel, but just a reminder that real-life makeovers can be very miserable!!!

Hi BBs!
New makeover dropping next weekend! I was delayed with some product shipping (why, god, why?) and wanted to drop the last of my apartment un-making for posterity. I am SO excited for you to see next week’s makeover. It might be my fave to date.

Hey BBs,
No ep this week. Not only are we mid-move but in the last week LA has experienced the biggest Moment of Hell as it’s become the flashpoint of reprehensible immigration policy enforcement and ridiculous media misrepresentation.
I hate the intentional terrorization of the most vulnerable people.
I love the first amendment and the brave acts of community I’ve seen in protests over the last week.
Fun fact: My mom has volunteered at a youth migrant detention center for YEARS, creating activities, learning languages, and offering companionship and distraction to underage kids who have fled unspeakable things (that our country often had a hand in, openly or clandestinely). Her volunteer program unexpectedly and unceremoniously ended this year with vague bureaucratic excuses. No volunteers in. No outside eyes to observe conditions. And no compassionate support for kids who must be terrified. It completely sickens me.
My entire channel is about creating a fun, joyful home. To have a home—a safe home—is the biggest gift in the entire world, and I have one largely because of the dumb luck to be of the 0.5% people born in the U.S.
So, if you ever enjoyed my content (and can comfortably spare a few bucks), please consider gifting that to the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights of Los Angeles, who are the boots on the ground for organizing, educating, and defending immigrants and refugees in the streets and in the courts. Their work is more important than ever, and I’m so grateful for everyone who is on the frontline of this fight.

Love y’all. Take care of each other.

ASK ME ANYTHING!
I can’t believe it’s the 4-year anniversary of my lil YouTube channel. While I usually chat all things decor, I love to celebrate my lil anniversary each year with an Ask Me Anything to get deep into whatever you really want to know! That can be anything:
💗 DIY dilemmas
💗 Life advice
💗 Dark secrets
💗 Deep regrets
💗 Whatever!
If you have a burning question, reply to me here (and if you’re feeling shy, I will gladly omit your identity) by next Friday, May 9. I’ll wrap the answers into a mega roundup soon.
Thanks for four years of fun.
XO,
Katy & Baguette

Hi BBs,
No episode this week but will be back next week. Oh, and a new makeover is on its way. Until then, Baguette says you should get outside a bit.
Love,
