We are so excited to announce our new series Upgrade My Stay, a show where we tackle vacation rental spaces that need a little Sorry Girls love and a whole lot of decor and DIY. In this episode, we stay at a wood cabin in the Great White North and convert it from a simple apartment to a cozy winter Canadiana dream getaway - all before check out time! We bring in thrifted finds like a teak dresser, upcycle vintage antique pieces like kitschy lamps, and of course, add some unique DIY features like an entertainment console and headboard to complete the makeover
Stay at Carol and Dave's cabin!: www.airbnb.ca/...

OMG!! Is this the new SUPER secret project you’ve been working on?!!?! 😱😱😍😍😍
YOU HAVE A VANNNNNNN. YA NEED A NAME FOR IT.!!!!
yessss let's brainstorm! I'll start: VANessa
What about “The Sorry Van” 😂
TheSorryGirls VANcesca (Francesca)
@@TheSorryGirls Miss VANjie? :P
Vanna White? lol
Maybe you can do a “time til checkout” graphic so we get a sense of time on this challenge.
Shannon Alexis yes please!
Love this idea. I’ll probably think it’s as fake as the Domino’s Tracker but it would still be a fun addition. :)
Yes great idea!
I feel like the before and after shots could be slowed down a bit so you can really take in and appreciate the changes made. Also include the owners a bit more and give a little more of their side of the story.
My guess is they are related to carol and Dave. The sort of scolding way they said “don’t touch the paneling” made me feel like these were reluctant relatives that had agreed to this as a favor.
And that would also maybe explain why they didn’t give us any back story on who carol and Dave are, what they intend to use this space for, what style they wanted, etc. Clearly the sorry girls just wanted to focus on themselves and what they want.
there was also literally no feedback like do they even like it or? the ending was so rushed!
@@carsonokeeffe agreed, I mean I get that RUclips has video limits it may cost more I'm not really sure how that works really I just know it's a thing. It really felt rushed and lacking in planning unlike like their other videos. The owners might not have been up to being on video that much or open to it like that but because not much was said about it we really don't know. In a way it really felt like they rented it out, pimped it out and then surprised the owners, like guess what! 🙂
That's honestly allot to fit in one video though. Seems like a two part video would have been a bit better because the decor was awesome!
LOVE the concept, huge congratulations on your hard work paying off 🎉 only thing I would like different is that you are more natural and "honest" about the process, less scripted... Be yourselves, we already love you ☺️
Everytime I watch you guys do big heavy duty DIY projects or painting, I’m always wondering if yous are comfy in the stunning outfits you wear or if you secretly think “I want to change into my sweats” 🤣 cause I know what I’d be wearing lol. Xx
Me too!
Saaaaaameeee
SAMEEE first thing I was thinking watching this video hahahha
Yep! Black paint and white pants. 😱
Love this, but the beginning with the owners was rough! Maybe choose one of you to be the point person who says “[insert name] it’s so good to see you, thank you so much for opening your space up to us! Final thoughts before we start? [Their thoughts]... Great! Let’s go get started!”
Great makeover!
This new series seems a bit awkward without having the context of what the home owners are looking for, and how it will improve their space, and the functionality / $$$ of the air bnb.
The new style music really emphasizes the awkwardness and staged qualities of the scenes, and the jokes and interactions seems a bit more forced than usual.
There’s so much potential for this series, just needs some fine tuning to bring the audience into it so we can relate more.
I agree, I think that part of the staged/artificial feeling might be coming from it not being edited by Justin
Picky Femme I think they tried to make it more reality TV style, but I agree completely
This is really good feedback, I hope they see this and take it into consideration.
I love how you provided constructive criticism without being rude or condescending. People can be so mean sometimes.
Picky Femme, why do people thinks it’s necessary to be so rude about the video. you call it “constructive feedback” but it’s not your youtube channel stfu
Becky: "we're short on time!!"
Also Becky: stands and watches as Kelsey peels off the fridge plastic
ASMR Moment!
I think this was the first cabin renovation I've seen. This was such a refreshing video to watch! That was a difficult space to work with because of the ceiling.
Painting that wood finish :( Makes me sad. Also why replace the tv?...I'd rather have a larger tv for the space than a tiny tv. Lol
I agree lol, the smaller tv was the only thing that really stood out to me as like a ... why would you do that. especially when they couple had centred the living room around the tv, they must use it a lot. Plus i almost thing the smaller one looked worse. Very cute still tho loved the makeover just
@@itsmints I was just thinking that I would be kinda angry if somebody replaced my bigger tv with a smaller one....
It didn’t look like fancy wood. Looked like regular like 1/4 inch plywood tbh
Agreed, the smaller TV made the space appear smaller and not larger; similar to when someone uses too small of a rug for example, or hangs their curtains too low and close to the window
Right! I think the black is too dark for the small place
I like it way better when you’re just filming and not acting
Acting was way off.
they are great diy-iers but not the best actresses...
Acting real life is super tough, watch any reality TV show. That's why they shouldn't be so scripted.
I know there are lots of comments like this, but it would be great to have a format you follow for each episode. Introduction in van, meet with owners (shake their hands or hug or something!), background/history of rental, what they'd like improved, overview of space, basic plan for makeover, actual makeover, your own reactions, owners reaction, walk through of new space, end thoughts. Super glad you're doing this series! :)
The intro is nicely designed, I really appreciate it!
Ikr? Loved it!!!!
Pia Sophie Eckel I thought it was too fake and scripted and not their usual self. I know their trying something different but i wasn’t feeling it.
Am I the only one that watch's videos like this and Wants to renovate and paint some part of the house 😂
No. Me tooooo
No! I want to redo everything when I watch these
Nope. Scratches that itch for me for sure.
I love this as a series! When I heard the intro, for some reason I thought you were going to do it without telling the owners. Then when you checked out you'd be like "Surprise! See ya!"
That's what it seemed like esp when "they signed the guest book"
Love the concept, but it"s a bit too staged... Be yourself is always better, and you're amazin humans sooooooo ;)
I disagree. I see where you’re coming from, but I think they did a good job of seeming more professional and including some “blooper” moments that let their personalities shine through. I liked that they talked about the progress of the room over coffee, and not just standing in the room like the normally do during their room makeovers
Yeah I feel like a lot of the commentary was TV like and that is not why I like RUclips. I like the authenticity all the RUclipsr without it feeling like they wrote a script
Agreed, dont really need another staged hgtv style reno show
Completely agree, dont like the HGTV vibe.
I agree, this was kinda cheesy and over acted. Not natural at all.
YES this reminds me of one of my favorite shows ever, Stay Here with Genevieve Gorder on Netflix. Super excited for this guys, great idea! I agree with some of the other comments that some context about the owners and the space at the beginning of the video would take this to the next level.
Love the concept but I feel like it’s way too scripted
Idk how I feel about this new series. I mean well done for sure, but at times it felt a little too rehearsed/staged/produced, instead of spontaneous, genuine and personal. Maybe you guys will work out kinks tho. Congrats on the new success
I love that the owners are real people with real reactions, not hired actors.
Omg guys! Such a great episode, love this new series. Cute ideas with the driving scene of what you want to do, check in with the owners and the morning coffee meeting of when needs to be done to upgrade the space and would you love about the space. Would like if the owners would tell you what doesn’t work in the space for guests and a few things they don’t want you to mess with, a lil challenge added 🥰
the production quality of this so good! this is better than most of the shows on TV! great work guys!
I love the low-key vibe of this show. Not sensational like american deco shows. Keep up the good work ladies!
Literally EVERYTHING about this is amaaaaazing, I'm so happy to see this secret project finally come to life 😍
You girls really did an amazing job, I'm loving this new series
Excited for the change-up in content! I do think that there's obviously a lot of behind the scenes planning and DIY-ing that wasn't shown and I definitely wouldn't mind additional cut-ins of those moments. The SorryGirls style of "this is how it works in real life" is one of my favorite parts of your 'vibe'.
I think this is a great way to work with spaces that arent just open and white rectangles. Also its great to see more styles explored than just the big 3 (boho, minimalist, farmhouse) im excited for more
WOAHHHH.... where is this production quality come from!??Awesome series.
"This video was produced with the financial participation and support of the Bell Fund and Ontario Creates." They were saying in a video awhile ago they were filling out grant applications so this must have been approved. Government arts funding in Canada is pretty interesting, and it's cool to see RUclipsrs making Canadian content like this with grants. I hope the Sorry Girls focus a little more on the interesting aspects of the regions they are travelling to in the future but it was definitely cool to have a higher production budget with drone shots.
OKAYYYY YOU GUYS ARE KILLIN IT! First of all these episodes are edited BEAUTIFULLY GOD DAMN. And Becky with her jokes omg I'm living for you two always
Love this concept but don't love the overprdouction feel of a tv show, it's not what I want from youtube. I would also like to know more about the owners, how you found them, where you got the things from etc.
This is incredible... the quality of this production is better than some shows I’ve seen on TV. You’ve really got something with this new series. Congratulations!
Damn guys this is so great and looks and feels so professional! Amazing job, love me a good make over series 🥰😍
I love love love the vibes of this video. So chill and calming. I'll watch this whenever I'm in a bad mood.
I think we missed a perfect opportunity when making the mounted headboard.. it could have been a "mountain" headboard where you make it in the shape of a mountain ridge line and still mount it on the wall as a normal head board
the production quality of this is unmatched on youtube. incredible. this was like a whole tv episode
OMG I love this style!!! This is a similar feel to the American pickers on TV but sorry girl style!!! I cannot wait for more episodes of this! You need your own TV show now :) xxx
Not really a fan of how this was produced. The video felt awkward, rehearsed, and unfinished. The tv stand was a miss for sure, it just looks like plywood painted black. Also the premise seems odd. You're staying the night there, but you obviously aren't because there's at least three of you and no bed?
Felt like low budget HGTV. It took me 4 or 5 sittings to get through this video.
Amazing makeover! You can tell from the owner's reaction that they were pleased. So respectful using items they already had. There is nothing that the Sorry Girls can't do and I am enjoying this new series.
Love this new series! So excited to take some ideas from here for my Cape Breton cabin. Can’t wait to see more. The first episode was 😍😍😍😍🎉
Kelsey when you swiped the goodies from the workshop, that's me every time I visit my parents. They have the best stuff laying around!
Seriously one of my favorite channels on RUclips! You guys need a show on Netflix or something!
OK WOW LADIES YES!!!! Not even past the title sequence and I am HERE for this series!!!!
giving me american picker vibes in the beginning haha. excited for this series!!!
Loved the cheesy guestbook bit. So fun !
I'm so happy for the sorrygirls team, this series is already so good! Well worth the anticipation and all those funding apps :)
Aww the guest book signing was my favorite part. I can't wait to see more from this series.
When is there coming more episodes of Making Home?❤️❤️❤️
The next episode is half done!
CAN’T WAIT!!!!😍❤️
How cool! First watching the episode I was like wow, the van is so packed with stuff it's spilling into the front. At the end of the episode, I realized they decorated the van with the macrame and plant!
This is my favorite series you all have done! So cute and easily inspirational for my home. It just goes to show how one painted wall, a few simple changes, and some decor can change the entire space! Love!
That plastic peeling part was so relaxing
I loved this! I literally felt like I was watching an HGTV show.
Love what you did with the moose lamp, and the textures and pops of red and ALL of it!!!!! Great job guys 💪🏼💕🦌
You missed the opportunity of doing something really cool with the tv! I would have mounted to the ceiling with some hinges so you can pull it down when you want to use it and then back to the ceiling when it's not being used to save the space
This gives me Property Brothers meets Canadian Pickers vibes and I love it 😍
That was a awesome make over! So so cute!
Felt like you guys landed a TV deal! SUper cute and fits with the rural canadian lifestyle (wasnt too fancy for the owners). Definitely for the next shows (I hope there are many more planned!!!!!) i think talking with the owners more (I could tell these guys were a little camera shy/not the talkative type) about what is needed to make it better for renters/more of a destination (what people go there to do while on vacay). Also, I know people probably wont be watching much tv there but I like other commenters ideas on mounting the existing tv so it isn't on the floor and isn't too small.
I really like the changes you guys made! Looking forward to you guys being more comfortable with this format and rocking new places! I love the idea and know you’ll grow into it.
i'm utterly horrified that you would paint that antique cabinet black instead of just staining it.
Y’all!!!!!!!! Looooove this format!!! Who needs HGTV?!? 😻😻
I love it, so ready for the next one.
Both of you are superstars! I beamed with joy the whole episode!! All that hard work has really paid off💖
Perfect COVID-19 videos! I've been so busy I didn't even know about the series!
This is such a good idea for a series, but I wish it didn't feel so staged!
awe!!!! the owners seemed so sweet! i love the space before but it’s even more cozy after. what a cute idea for a series!
I hit that like button as soon as I heard the Rug-ret pun. Love it!
You guys should help them with photos for their listing and share the listing so people can find it
I used this video to make my mom a regular viewer now! She loves HGTV so I showed her this intro and she was hooked!!
Lol watching her paint subscribe reminds me of my dad painting cuss words on a barn when he was a teen, and painting over it thinking no one would see and they could see them forever lol
You know ladies, I love the show with the humor. Who cares if everything wasn't perfect. I think you girls did awesome. Don't let the negative comments get you down................ Keep it up, I look forward to your next video...
Nicely done! I really wasn't sure about taking the wonderful mid-century shades off those cool lamps, but in this setting the new shades makes them more cohesive with everything else, and showcases the base much better. This surprised me. You really know what you're doing, and I'm sure they'll keep the shades safe to be reunited at some point in the future. Really nice job.
I love this cabin vibe!
This is so exciting. Congratulations team! Very proud of you all, fantastic work 💜
You two are just awesome! It’s so cool to watch as you progress through all your adventures. Keep killin’ it!
Fenelon falls is soooooo beautiful! Good job ladies!
you guys are just out there painting the whole wall in your cute ass outfits like WATCH OUT!!!!!!
This is like a tv show omg it’s awesome!!
I can't even with the macrame divider and hanging plant in the van 😭😂 You two are so cute lol!! Hope to see more of these, this turned out great!
Great Job Girls love that little bathroom cabinet . Everything blended well the old and new:)
You should always get your paint brush wet and ring out before using it to paint. That way it doesnt ruin the bristles, it makes the absorption of paint on the brush equally distributed and it makes the brush easier to wash out for reuse.
Also so happy these two from CANADA are making a name for themselves
Hey @TheSorryGirls, maybe you could add spanish subtitles to have a wider audience. I could help you with that.
PS: Great job! 👏!
I love the concept of this video can’t wait to see more from this series !
I absolutely love this new series !!!!!!!
You're like literally doing a TV show on youtube and im definitely here for it! I can see the hard work that goes into something like this an I very much appreciate it! 😍😍😍
Sooooo in love with this new series!!!! looking forward to more of this!! 😍😍😍😍😍❤❤❤😘😘😘
Looks like all the people on the comments know just how to make great RUclips videos and series, but surprise! THEY DON’T MAKE IT 🌈 this video was so lovely, and the owners are just so cool and chill ✨ I really enjoyed this video, and how the space turned out 😍
This new segment, cinematography, the editing is everything. You really upped your game in this one girls! I love the opening scene where you're planning everything while driving. And it turned out so good!
Kelsey's outfit on the first day and Becky's hair and outfit during the second day are 👌🏽.
Well Done TSG! I agree with other viewers; a brief interview with the owners to set the direction, giving permission, etc. of the redo is needed, otherwise that aspect is uncomfortable. They're Strong Girls, The Sorry Girls! Best Wishes as you go forward!
I love this t.v. show vibe. It's like I'm watching HGTV but better. I love you guys!😂💕
I love it, I am still on the fence just a tad about the pink chairs (I love pink ) cause of the cabin vibe, I am having a hard time wrapping my head around them but y’all are the professionals. The only thing I would have added is the hook thing y’all took down, I would have painted it black and hung it back up on the opposite wall at the end if the bed with the cute little hangers. Anyway y’all did great as always. Thanks for inviting us all to watch.
Becky you look super cute with that black off the shoulder top , pants & those cute boots !! The cabin looks way better than before !
I am watching this episode after watching some of the latest ones and so much of the feedback here was incorporated! Great work, TSG, it s so nice that you listen to your viewers. Still, love this episode just as much as the later ones :D
Damn, this is amazing ! Y'all have a van and everything, it's a proper TV show, super well produced and I love the result of the makeover !
So cute! I love that you painted that little cabinet black. I have one myself and didn't really know what to do with it. I might just throw on some black paint!
That cabinet’s door had unpainted edges...
Which means you all are ready for the big networks: badly scripted bad jobs. You all are going places!
Thanks for showing some of your beautiful country!
New series alert! I know I’m late to the game but absolutely loved this episode! Love how talented and creative you both are. The quality of this episode is amazing considering a similar TV show would take over a hundred members of staff, major budget and time taken. I’m honestly so proud of you both and your whole team. Keep going!
I’m OBSESSED with these types of videos!! More please!!!
Becky’s looks in this video are so stunning 😍 esp those earrings!!!!😍😍😍
My dream job! I always change things at air b&b's but have to return things to their spots before I leave.
wow the production value on this
