So I watched this video, and found it very helpful.

I researched a bit more and cleared up why they were saying で was to be used
as a particle after a place, instead of に like I'd thought, which was because
both can be used, but they are used in different contexts.

Throughout this little research I did, I had a hard time understanding where
adjectives were supposed to fit still.

Was there something really obvious I missed, and could you help explain to me
where adjectives should go?

I've never learned another language before so I'm trying multiple approaches.
I apologize if this is a ridiculous question but if I could get some help I'd
appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

Edit: I've also just taken a look at
[this](https://japanese.stackexchange.com/questions/20922/japanese-grammar-
structure-order?rq=1) article, and seen that they always go before the noun,
and also that the Japanese sentences are flexible, but is there any basic rule
of thumb where you should have your adjectives in front of any of the other
sentence components?

Adjectives or adverbs anything modifies something come right before the word
it modifies: あかい{red} ぼうし{hat}, わたしの{my} ともだち{friend}, はやく{fast} はしる{run}.
**[the 'fast' is meant to be an adverb]**

The video seems not to get into the placement of adjectives, but it has this
sentence:

> ちちは ははのたんじょうびに えきのちかくで きれいなバラを かいました。

Here ははの (Mother's) is **modifier to** たんじょうび (birthday) .  
More in detail, [〔はは{mother} + の{of}〕 + たんじょうび{birthday}] + に{on}

Likewise, [〔えき{station} + の{of}〕 + ちかく {near}] + で{at}

きれいな{beautiful} + バラ{roses} + を{object marker} + かいました{bought}.

It might be hard to see what I'm doing here, but I hope it can help you in
some way.
