We are ripping our way through this exterior structure here on my property and I am loving the new direction. Feels way more mature and motivating. Thank you Displate for sponsoring today’s episode!

Good to see you changing stuff up as you settle in to yourself 😊 If the stain you were using is spelled Jacobean it's pronounced Jackobeean. If it's not then ignore the history stuff that follows😁 The Jacobean era followed the original Elizabethan one and typical furniture of the time was heavy and very dark 🤷♀️
What impressed me the most was the feeling of relaxation and contentment that came across in this video. I found myself giving a big sigh and relaxing into it just by osmosis. Great job!
She is so fun. Everyone needs a friend who gets us and who is honestly in love with we do. Rachel is now grounded. Our spaces change as we grow. Rites of passage to growth. I love everything you’re doing in our Joshua Tree home.
I actually love the black pipes for the floral drying station. I think copper would compete with the drying flowers. It all looks so good! I love what you did!
The last finished shot at the end looks like you could just walk through the large mirror between the shelves into a whole other world of someone's cozy little cottage and escape into a world of ease. Absoloutely love this!
Beautiful! The Master Gardening program is a great way to learn about botany. Here in Oregon it’s offered in January and a February because there isn’t a lot going on plant wise because of the weather. At the time I went through the program it was offered for free with the stipulation that you put 40 hours back into the program with volunteer hours. I did a few booth days and then finished out with a week at the main office answering the hotline. I learned so much and ended up going through a two year program for Landscape Technology through our local Community College which transferred into owning a vineyard for ten years. Never saw that coming. 😬😊 Have fun!
This is definitely a place I could also be happy in. I can't wait for that damn pottery wheel to get there either! Using clay is a whole 'nother experience that has to be done rather than explained, and I am so happy you're going down that route. Just watch, two years from now there'll be Metz original pottery for sale in the local mom n pop Joshua Tree stores for tourists to pick up! You just have to get the proper wiring in place for a kiln, unless you do the old timey fire pit kiln thing which is just as satisfying. Thank you so much for taking us down this road with you, darling. You are amazing and WE LOVE YOU for it! 🫂💐
What a great change! I am so glad that our girl is finally focusing on herself and building her world on her own terms. And the displates are really beautiful!
It's been a long while since I commented here. But Hey, looking at what you are doing here in the desert, it's just so so amazing! Since you just uploaded the video, I am still awake here on the other side of the globe, thought I need to say that I get all your notifications and watch your videos!
I am new to your vlog with this new property. What a gem you have, and it is turning out so well. That room is serene...a wonderful place to enter when you're worn out and ready to cry. I've watched about 5 episodes, and I can't wait to watch more and see how you transform this property. You rock girl!
When you look at what you’ve achieved and the corners of your mouth turn upwards towards the sky you know you did good…..keep going smiley eyes…we’re all still here x
How She-shed of you. It is such a tranquil , homey looking room. Your style is sooooo you. It isn't Instagrammy or Pinterest goey. I see your heart and soul and your growth in these videos since you began your New Story. Not only do you have a love for the land, the home, the dogs your friends but you have grown to love who you are becoming and it shows.Self love and healing is represented in every episode. Thank you for allowing us to see you grow.
That space is so rad it's like cottage meets boho and the magnet prints of plants and herbs l love line and wash art and that's kind of what that is. You have unique style that's your super power
Literally again it looks so good it seems your makeovers these days are really showcasing an elevated personal style and I’m OBSESSED WITH ALL OF THEM. beautiful. Happy 4 u
Wow wow wow. You are an original Rachel. Your creativity and ability to build what is in your mind is just amazing. I love that you reuse items and add live plants.
You continue to amaze and inspire me! Rachel, I have no words!!! This space is you, is your soul, is your present self. You’re amazing!!! Keep it up girl! 💜🐺
god. it's so freakin. cozy. it's giving off that vibe that ~this is a space where you can relax in~ but also ~this is a space where we can get creative~ i love it so much!!
I love it so much. I didn’t like the colors at first until I saw the finishing touches. It all looks like it should been there all along. Now I want an outdoor office
I remember that make-over, when you turned the room into a bar. I absolutely loved the decor. It was fun, eclectic and beautiful. And now it is a relaxing haven for you. In a very different style - yet still beautiful and eclectic. Enjoy❤️
3 things! One I aspire to be in a state of peace and fulfillment as you are. In these snapshots of ur life that you share with us. Two what is that gorgeous yellow paint color? Cuz I need that in my life! And three I hope you create a seminar for women. Intro to diy/feeling more confident with power tools. Because I will drive from SoCal to attend! I love you and ur content so much! Thank you! ❤️
Woman!! Seriously the best room I've seen you do so far! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT! I need to try that notching you did on the shelving. But I don't have that bit. I love the hanging plants and just the whole thing! You are still rockin' it! Love it!
Totally chillaxed, I have a recipe corner that's very similar.Its not over the top just enough to centre your body soul & remind of the things that make you happy.
I was a little sceptical at first when you said you weren't getting rid of the mirrior but I honestly love this more than the original. The mirror wall adds so much character to the space and it makes it feel more open I'm a huge plant nerd so love the illustration on the wall. A beautiful make over once again.
I'm so happy you're finding your balance. You have been thru so much!! I've been watching since the black and copper closet. Looks like you had seismic shifts in your friendships and support systems and as Elton would say, "You're still standing!" My motto is, "Living welll is the best revenge. " Sis, you won!! 🏆🏅🥇🏆
awesomeness! looks so very zen! I have always wanted to try and dry my own plants, just lack the confidence, and to be honest where do I put them! but this looks amazing! thanks so much for sharing! xoxo
Super impressed with all the things you come up with. All the decor and all the builds, yeheiiihhh it makes me happy!! 😄 Love when you post a new video. I get in some sort of relaxmode yet very eager to get inspired and run off to get things going. So thank you for that 😊
:D i always like re-visiting old diys or projects. they really are some sort of archaeology into one's personality. when you said 'it really reflected who is was - a hot mess' i felt this so much LOL but ya - you know, sometimes we are a hot mess, and that mustn't mean the we can't create. at the time, staying busy and doing something, ANYTHING, probably helped you processing to, and that means it had value!
Yo Yo Yo Rhaaaacheeellleeee!!! Respect for showing us your change ups & when things aren't all roses & sunshine!! What a difference. Glad you kept the color & the mirrors. I really liked them from da get go. Gonna be pretty cool to see you making pottery in the future. Hoping all is well SuperCat, Dirty Jersey out!!
Thus space is GORGEOUS! It’s so my aesthetic, I love it so much 🥰 totally stealing ideas from you when I make my creative space 😁 those botanical posters are stunning, the metal/magnet is genius! As always, love your work 💗
Pronounced jakəˈbēən, meaning relating to the reign of James I of England. I’m sure most people would mispronounce, I just happened to learn this in design school
You inspire me so fucking much, Rachel! Holy shizzzz talk about the Ultimate Girl Bossing!!! Living your absolutely unique, wonderful, gorgeous dream life through hard work & PASSION. I'm amazed *clap clap clap*

I don’t think I’ve seen a remodel of yours that was in any capacity underwhelming or distasteful. Your style is impeccable.
I have had my fair share but I really appreciate you.
YES to some pottery videos or a live sesh. I need to start making my own plant pots so I support this 👍
Woman!! Seriously the best room I've seen you do so far! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT! I need to try that notching you did on the shelving. But I don't have that bit. I love the hanging plants and just the whole thing! You are still rockin' it! Love it!
