I totally agree with you anaa! I've seen some other DIY presentations and the perfectionism greatly decreases my motivation. Mon is so friendly and not afraid to show us we can change our minds on things, design is an ongoing process and that things don't always turn out right the first time--and it's totally okay!
Aww thank you!! 💓 I'm so happy to hear you guys like my honest approach. I was honestly thinking if I should add this part since it felt a bit chaotic like I didn't know what I was doing. But most of the time I have no idea what to do, but I have a clear vision of a certain aesthetic in mind and I just experiment until I achieve it 😅💕 comments like this help me stay true to myself, so thank you for that
@@sct4040 I understand why you don't like the Trones. But... the ones I had were all chipped off and these are so much more durable. Plus, these are much more minimalistic and they look better for my narrow hallway and I can finally clean underneath them 🥰
Love the outcome! It has just the right mix of practicality, a clean mod stylish look, and meaningful personal touches. Mars is so sweet to keep you good company and provide art inspiration with this project :)
You are a true DIY from changing your mind on the color to dropping and chipping your shoe holders. It’s nice to see that not everything comes out perfect the first time. 😂. Hi to Mars 🐾
Mon, I ❤ Mars!!!! He is SOOOO CUTE!!!!!!! I am happy to babysit any time!!!!❤❤❤ Thought…not sure if you have ever tried the stick on wallpaper that is available on Amazon….some of the patterns are GORGEOUS and VERY inexpensive….plus it’s is FAST….and I mean FAST! I did our main wall in our Master bedroom, all by myself in less than two hours!!! Super easy!!! Definitely read the reviews if you are choosing a “busy” pattern as there is more “loss” in a busy pattern than a plain one but WOW does it look AMAZING!!! AND, I did do it in one of the bathrooms last year which I am redoing now, with my BLOWDRYER…not even a heat gun, I just warmed up the wallpaper and it PEELED RIGHT OFF with MINIMAL TO NO RESIDUE!!! A quick wipe with GreenClean and it was ready for paint or NEW PAPER!!!!!! Check out “Stick on Wallpaper” on Amazon…….it is amazing and doing it on a 1/2 wall would look fabulous….maybe next “design”…..(I prefer to call what you do..MAGIC!!!❤❤❤).
@@tovah2276 Thank you so much 🥰 I have tried peel and stick wallpaper once, and it had bubbles in the end, so I am not trying it out again 😞 it was so frustrating
Great small area makeover...what a difference...very inviting 👍😊 Btw, I really like the music you used when you were putting the IKEA shoe cabinets on the wall and painting the 2nd colour on the wall afterwards. You have used that music in quite a few videos and it make me want to get up and get motivated with chores or a workout 😉. Hey Mars...glad you approve of the new entryway...guess having that added runner gives you a new spot to nap 😁😅.
Hi Mars! You and my doggo are always napping lol! Ahh I’m so excited to watch today, I also have a small entry way and struggle to make it functional. It’s a square shape so it seems like there should be room but as soon as we put a table there it’s hard to get through. One thing I’ve done that really works for us is to replace the big mirror with four pictures and the glass from them and their botanical prints make it feel like a garden window. I moved the mirror to the adjacent hallway so it reflects light from the window next to the door.
Its funny that I just made over my entryway and first I went with green then I repainted to this almost same exact brown colour!:) Love this makeover. So nice of you to bring Mars on your holidays and also, you have a killer figure, Mon, wow!
Awww 🥰 Thank you so much for your compliments ❤ It's so funny how brown fixes everything, I'm now thinking of painting my bedroom this same color, but we'll see :)
Dall-E, like other AI generators, is trained on works stolen from real, human artists. If you want wall art, please make your own entirely from scratch or pay a real human artist. You can get art prints for surprisingly low prices, especially if they're small.
Just a small recommendation from our failed wall paintings - if you like to paint much, we recommend using blue or orange Tesa tapes, they tend to bleed through much less. Most hardware stores have them :)
You did a lovely job! I envy you having walls that are so easy to drill into;-)) I live in a building from the 1890s and when you drill you often get a pile of rubble and a huge hole.
@@berlinorama I feel you 😞 I have troubles drilling in some parts of my home - literally pieces of the wall fall off as I drill. But luckily the hallway is drywalled so it's much easier 🤞
@@HomeByMon I live in Berlin where so many of the walls seem to be filled with wartime rubble. The only room with drywall is my bathroom, so drilling is always a big adventure.
@@berlinorama ahh I can imagine.. I actually drywall my own walls just so it is easier to maintain and drill 😅 I can make a tutorial in some next video 💕
@@susanbedingfield4661 I don't know what color it is 😞 I got it from the local paint store from a catalog, but when they mixed it, they didn't write the number or the name..
I think with how divisive particularly politics are over there at the moment, most all a lot of people here will be very aware of are things like that an, as usual, judging based on a handful of extreme situations/people they are seeing on the news.
It's lovely but all monochromatic. For me it would be a great background but l would add a strong pop of color. To me, neutrals are not a real color. But, all in all, it has a charming, professional look and provides a nice, friendly welcome into the apartment.
Staging isn't real life. Are the items that were hanging up now in the nice closet? By changing the storage pieces to ones that are less imcumbersome of the entry always makes a difference. I honestly thought Mon was going to do a diy to the shoe cabinet doors. It won't take much for them to break. The upper knob hanger seemed to high. She was stretching to hang up the tote. The take away is - if it works for them, then its good.
@@lovealwaysmom hey, it's summer here and it's so hot that all of my jackets and coats are stored away. Also, my husband is taller than me, so I figured the higher one is for him and the lower one for me 🥰
Cute makeover. It looks really good. Even though Mars didn't look like he helped much, I'm sure he supplied endless moral support.
@@debsmith2269 hahaha yes he is my moral support for sure 🥰
The brown paint really made it pop, great choice!
@@ps4402 so glad you like it 🥰
I love how you're always keeping it real, Mon!🙌 DIY projects take a lot of trial and error and I appreciate you showing it all😊

So much in such a small space and yet minimal. You did a wonderful job. The entry looks beautiful. 🌹
@@constancegarcia8053 thank you so much 🥰
I think the old shoe cabinet was more solid and not plastic. The new ones look cheap.
I do like the new color and runner.

Love your entrance hall. A successful makeover and Mars enjoyed the new rug.
@@OXOtwo yes he did! So glad you like it 🥰
Wow, right on time! Loved your color idea! Our entryway is too white also and now I know for sure how I want to paint it! Thank you so much
I'm so glad my video was helpful! 🥰💕
This is gorgeous. When I heard you wanting to repaint the cream I thought nooooooo! But wow, it is stunning.
Too pretty to hang your coats in now!
I know.. I was so hesitant whether I should paint it or not, but I had a picture in mind and just went for it 🥰 So glad you like it 💕

Paint the hangers. They clash with the brown!

You're so clever doing DNY by yourself 👍..I don't know all this 😂
What color is the brown? What brannd? I love the color.
@susan, I agree. I love how it dried. I thought the initial color was going to be dark.
I love the color too, it feels natural and gives dimension to the wall. It’s like leather or milk chocolate, would also love to know the color name.
@@susanbedingfield4661 I don't know what color it is 😞 I got it from the local paint store from a catalog, but when they mixed it, they didn't write the number or the name..

Love that brown shade. I’m also starting to incorporate brown into my decor recently. What paint did you use?
@@theresalaviolette5849 me too 🥰 brown is just gorgeous! The paint is a local brand, and I unfortunately don't know the exact shade 😞
I forgot about trones when i saw you, you are like blond Audrey Hepburn 😮
So good!! What color/company is that paint?? Love it
@@St3gosaurusH it's actually a local brand called Maxi colors
mi piace tantissimo ❤ e si, Mars è adorabile 😍
