    That behind-the-sofa table is my favorite part of your living room makeover. My son made something similar and it's great with the kids, but your charging station kicks it up a notch.

    The whitewash on the brick definitely lightens up the room!! The Monet wall paper is gorgeous and gently brightens up the area! The room looks so light and wonderful now Cory!! Great team work with your husband and mom!!

    I love the sofa table that runs the entire length of the sectional and has the built-in outlets! That is a simple and great idea! I think I'd love to do that and add some shelving above it. Thanks for sharing!

    The cosole table behind the sofa is genius! Whitewashing the fireplace brick looks so fresh. Your room looks wonderful, cozy and inviting. 🤗

    I love the texture of real bricks, and I like the clean, fresh look of painted bricks. Your whitewashed brick is the best of both worlds.

    I agree with Caroline! Yay to you & your husband. I love blue & yellow, so I have different shades of each in my small home. That way I can move things from room to room for a quick refresh.

    Cory, you and your family will make many wonderful memories in your amazing living room! You've already started making memories with your darling kids and dogs helping. The whitewash fireplace is gorgeous, and I love the sofa and the table behind it. The wallpaper is so much better than the elevator!! Well done to yourself and your husband!

    Opaque is solid color, not see-through. I also love how the room transformed. The fireplace and the table behind the couch are my favorite!

  • @htownandi6263
    @htownandi6263 Год назад +1

    I think this is going on my top 10 favorites list of your transformations. This came out so awesome! Especially the snack station! (It really did look like an elevator lol) I think personally I would keep the switch covers as they are. In my house if they were painted, they would probably blend in too much and I would have a hard time finding them 😂

  • @user-eq4sp6hn2x

    Wow Cory and husband. This makeover is beautiful. Y'all did an amazing job. That wallpaper is amazing. And I love the table behind the couch. Great idea with the outlets in the table and the changing of them in a new to you home.

  • @quinnhen2325
    @quinnhen2325 Год назад

    I bought a 1974 house in the Adirondacks at the end of ‘21. Every outlet and switch minus the kitchen are black, and all the outlets are upside down!!! Some electricians did that back then because the ground part of the plug would be at the top in case whatever cord was in the outlet was sticking out. That ground part would be hit first by hands/water etc. Crazy!! I’ve actually been slowly changing out all the black outlets and switches in the house myself!!! No, I’ve not done this before. The 3 way switches have been a bit difficult, but so far so good!!! I have done SO MUCH to this old brown interior house!!!! Also changed all the door knobs from mismatched chrome/brass to all nickel color. Painted the fireplace white, and will be working on the pantry after I finish the wiring stuff.
    If you do decide to paint the paneling, it’d be beautiful!!
    I’m disabled so can’t get on a ladder, but have a very tall young man that helps when I need it. The low outlets I’m doing when my daughter visits because she can get on the floor to screw them back in. 😁😁

    @anneard1674 Год назад +1

    I LOVE your do over! i would paint that light switch to match but not bother with the outlet cover. I'm afraid I would have to put shelves in those sofa tables to store books, puzzles or what ever not needed but occasionally. I'm really impressed at how well the sofa table matches your paneling. You are really inspiring.

    Everything turned out beautiful, Cory. I've seen a lot of Monet paintings in museums in my life and your wall looks exactly like the real paintings.😀 We live in an apartment (our house was built in 1905), and have a lot of strange things, like the upside-down electricity solutions and other funny things. Your house is 50 years old, if I'm not mistaken, so it is natural to have a lot of strange things in it. You have to start to own it! Haha!😀
