We’re Making Progress on Our Kitchen Makeover
Просмотров 12 тыс.7 месяцев назад
In January 2022, we began renovating our kitchen. We stripped it down to the studs, replaced most of the electrical components, and upgraded the plumbing to PVC and Pex. Slowly but surely, we’ve been piecing it back together with new insulation, drywall, and hardwood floors. Now that the main structural work is complete, we’ve recently taken on the cabinet installation, and we’re excited for th...
Costco's $100 Hose Reel is a Game Changer

Costco's Sunneday Retractable Hose Reel | How to Install a Retractable Hose Reel and Review | Weekend Project I purchased the Sunneday hose reel last year for $99 (original price $130). Since I installed it, it has been a game changer. My wife hated seeing the hose on the floor, and she really wouldn't use it because it would kink up, get dirty, and overall, it was a hassle to use. I tried usin...

Kitchen Remodel: Watch Our Kitchen Come Down
This is a beautiful video!!
Thank you brother!!!
Love the video! Congrats on the baby! My beautiful nephew! Video is well put together!
Good stuff
Thank you!
Very nice! Blessings!!!!
Thank you!😊
Amazing!!! ❤❤❤❤❤ good luck with parenting 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Thank you!
Amazing job! It looks so cute and cozy :)
Thank you! 😊 I'm glad you like it! Cheers!
I'd love to hear your thoughts on the Nursery Makeover. I hope you liked it!😁
Very nice 🤗
What do you think of the progress?😊
I bought it from Costco this summer. I love it. Best decision ever. I did not have the option of putting it on a post else I would. Only thing is, it cannot be removed to store against our Canadian winter. I will have to wrap it thoroughly. And it was not $99, I wish, lol. It was $150 in Toronto, Ontario
I know! We still love it and it’s going strong. The convenience of using it was worth every penny. It’s unfortunate that you won’t be able to store over the winter but it should be fine as long as you remove all the water from the hose. 😱150!? Was that the discount price? Either way I still think is cheaper than other brands plus you get Costco’s return policy. Enjoy your summer watering your plants! 🪴
All the rangehood videos I watch, there is no way to repair or troubleshoot the hood. You’d have to tear out the whole enclosure.
I also came to the same realization when I was trying to figure out how to design the range hood. I sacrifice accessibility over the finish look because I expect the range hood to work for at least 5 years and at that point I will have to take it apart. I think if you purchase a range hood insert that will give you the accessibility that you are looking for.
Very nice work. The kitchen looks amazing. Would you be able to share the contractor info for cabinets?
I’m waiting for his response if he would allow me to share his contact information. Please send me an email to themidlothianhome@gmail.com
It’s beautiful. You guys did a great job.
Thank you so much!😊
Great job!
Thank you! 😊
Are you able to share the source where you got your cabinets. I’m also planning a diy kitchen reno and the cabinet quotes… like yours, have been extremely expensive.
I’m not sure. I would have to ask the contractor. Are you based in Chicago or suburbs? Otherwise you’ll have to go pick them up yourself like we did 🙃.
Beautiful results🩶🤍🖤
Thank you so much! ☺️
I love your kitchen! It came out beautifully. I also appreciate you showing the sausage making of the paint job…every other video makes it look so easy and ITS NEVER EASY!
Thank you! I’m glad you loved it. That’s what we were thinking when we were struggling to spray paint them, that it’s never as easy as it looks.
Looking great brother!! But the audio of the your is still too low lol. Crank that up a few notches! but I love the video!!
Thanks brother! Will do!
Love the video. Great job
Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoyed it.
Good job, I paint and finish cars and your issue is the coverage. You want to apply the first coat really light, you don't want to fully cover it... 1st layer should be light, after flashing second layer should be medium and finally the 3rd layer should be medium to hard. The best thing you can do is to cover everything quick and then come back and see where you need more paint, overall you did a good job.
Yeah, you are right. As a beginner you think it needs to fully covered and that's where the overspray happens. The next time I paint, I'll for sure use your method. Thanks for the feedback and for watching the video! Cheers!
Love the bathroom but not a fan of the pictures...
I’m delighted you enjoyed the bathroom remodel! The pictures were chosen from what we had available, and we tried to make them work. They wouldn't be my first pick either. After we finish renovating the kitchen, we can update the art. Do you have any suggestions?
@@TheMidlothianHome not really...lol but do love the bathroom
@judybesse4058 😑… lmao. Thanks. Once I change them I’ll put on a post and I’ll be looking for your input again. 😆Cheers!
Great work guys! 👏👍 Beautiful couple!😉
Thank you! I’m glad you liked it. 😊
All's good but I would have added a lighter green stencil type wallpaper sticking to Victorian theme
That was our original plan but the prices for wallpaper are very high. So, we decided to postpone adding wall paper to a later time. Thanks for watching!
How thick of a post is that? 4x4 or 6x6? Are those white fence post covers expensive? Does the Costco brand offer good warranty vs the amazon varieties? How much was it? I dont see on costco website.
The post are 4x4. Yes, the cover was $25-$40. Well you get the standard Costco warranty on top of the manufacture warranty. I purchase the reel on sale for $99, original price in store was $139.
It $144 on the website
Costco’s online prices tend to be higher than those in their physical stores.
Probably you feel like it’s cheaper on the website, but then they also charge you shipping whereas the shipping is inside of the price when it’s at Amazon or at Costco so it is a wash
@@ArtieMcYardie That makes sense.
what does 'midlothian' mean?
To us, it is the name of where we live.
@@TheMidlothianHome ohhhhhhhhhh, i was thinking i missed something. i know oueen anne victorians, craftsman, colonials, mid century...i looked up midlothian homes and couldnt find anything. victorians are my favotite cause she has all these nooks and crannies.
@@spicynomad yeah, Midlothian is not an architectural style but it sounds like it could be one lol.
@@TheMidlothianHome 😁i concur.
Great option for the post vs cement! Do you know the size of the screws they provide for the bracket? Had to remount my hose reel and lost them in the process.
Oh that’s unfortunate. I found the manual online but it doesn’t tell me the size of the screws.I’m not sure but I believe it is a 3/8 hex screw.
how does it compare to hoselink?
I find it challenging to provide a direct comparison as I have never owned a Hoselink retractable reel myself. Nonetheless, some significant distinctions include their patented adapters, the presence of an inline shutoff valve-a feature I find lacking in Sunneday reels-and the convenience of a quick release mechanism. It's worth noting that these features could potentially be supplemented with aftermarket products. So, in my opinion, it's uncertain whether the $250 price tag for an 82ft Hoselink reel represents a better investment compared to Sunneday's 98ft option at $99, given that their core functions are similar. I hope this comparison is useful to you.
@@TheMidlothianHome yes, thanks for responding!
Very interesting! My wife and I have been looking for hose reel ideas! Thanks for the review!
I’m glad you enjoyed it. A hose reel will make a huge difference!
Did the post hole foam turn into cement (@ 2:07). I've tried the instant foam before and I found the post loosen up over time. Thanks for the video
The foam turn into a firm/hard surface and after a single winter the post hasn't loosen up. So maybe it's too early to tell? Thanks for watching!
Why put a fertilizer?
Hello! While fertilizer isn’t strictly necessary, I personally choose to fertilize my trees in the spring. Adding fertilizer before applying mulch allows it to reach the soil more quickly compared to adding it after the mulch has been put down.
Beautiful 🤩
Thank you so much!
Nice job!🤩👍
Thank you!
Nice video. What company did you buy the cabinets from?
Thank you! I purchase the cabinets through a contractor. I believe they were RTA cabinets.
All coming together now! Looking good! Nice job! 👍
Thank you! We can't wait to finally have our kitchen back.
At first I thought your cross is upside down but the I thought if you’re praising him it’s perfect. I love it. Cool tat. I loved the video too
You are the first person to catch that. Thank you!
Nice job! Wanted to do the same thing. what is the name of the white cover? do you have a link?
Thank you! The cover is called a Post Jacket. I purchase mine from Home Depot, here is the link www.homedepot.com/p/Veranda-4-in-x-4-in-x-100-in-White-Traditional-Post-Jacket-73002149/100029112
@@TheMidlothianHomethank you for the info!
@@TheMidlothianHomevery profesional and kind of you to share information about the cover and and the rest of the supplies. Utmost respect and gratitude. Cheers and best wishes ‘👍👍
@MayweatherjrWONandsoTrump thank you so much! Cheers!
This awesome i love it brother!! Great job keep it going!!
Thanks brother!
I've never felt so relaxed watching a makeover video like this one. Keep making more videos!!
Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
How far down did your dig. I want to do this exact thing
The depth was 24/27 inches. Just below the freezing line of 22 inches for my area.
Like it. Darkness seems fine for a powder room. What was your color of choice?
Thank you! The color is Pewter Green by SW
We loved how it turned out. The green and gold is bee'utiful. My daughter and i enjoyed watching the process. Please beep out the curse words so that we can continue watching together.
Thanks so much 😊!! I'm delighted to hear you are both enjoying it. I'm so sorry for any inappropriate language. Going forward, I will make sure to refrain from using curse word, if I happen to slip up, I'll censor them. Thanks again!
What color is that love it
Thank you! The color is Pewter Green by SW.
You have a beautiful yard. Love the curved beds. When the hydrangeas grown in, it will be spectacular. Love the dogs, too!
Thank you so much! Yes, I can't wait for the hydrangeas to mature!
Gorgeous!!! I have a dark, moody bathroom too.
Thank you so much! Great minds think alike :D.
As an Italian I will never understand how it is possible for American people to maintain and clean a bathroom that has wooden instead of tiles everywhere around the sink, but I always appreciate the look of the final renovation when the bathroom is remade into this style.
Well I don't know either. This is the my first time doing this so hopefully I don't have any regrets haha :D
I’m an American and I don’t either. I’m just here for how he did it and the overall aesthetic. ❤
I'm in Canada, so maybe a little different, but our humidity is so low that it dries out very quickly. (In a half bath like this. shower room would need tile)
Cute but why leave the vanity knobs silver with all gold hardware elsewhere 🥲
lol. Funny you mention that. We were indecisive at the beginning, we wanted to mix metals, but decided to stick with the gold and now we plan on fixing the nobs.
“What the?! But I measured!” - me, every project ever. But at least you figured it out!😂
lol. it happens to the best of us :D.
LOVE the moody vibe and the green! Could you tell me where you found the brass faucet please? Thank you! Awesome job on everything! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Thank you so much! The links to the faucet is here: a.co/d/1kcCrdP
Gorgeous!! 😍
Thank you!! 😊
