    You did a wonderful job. My friend lives in a home that was built in the 70’s and her house already came with most of these built ins. It’s amazing the nice cabinets homes used to have before builders got cheap on us and cut corners.

    All your storages solutions are great. The LR built-ins for sure a winner. I like how all the storage you added, not only add tons of storage, but look like they've always been there. You've done a great job to add so much storage. Nicely done!

    Might sound weird but I love your voice!!! So soothing and soft spoken !!! English is my second language and I can actually understand you. I’m so tired of people talking with the grasp voice, they all sound the same and some do it so deep that I can’t barely understand what they are saying.

    We just took our children’s closet doors off completely. Makes their smaller rooms feel more open and prevents them from just throwing things in the closet and shutting the door on the mess.

    I'll never be as handy as you, but sooo many great ideas here. So often we accept things the way they are and it doesn't even occur to us to think creatively to make things function better for us. I'm going to go walk around my house now to look for places to improve lol. ❤

    Her family is very fortunate! I'm living in a small rental, so I am not the demographic for this video at all. However, i couldn't look away because of all the value this video provides. The inner closet in the daught's room at 11:46 *chef's kiss*

    👏BRAVO👏👏 First time to your channel and I find your visionary qualities and ability to follow-through on those ideas with your talent to build is absolutely AMAZING. I see in your future, Kelsey, as you continue building your channel, tutorials to further monetize your time and efforts. That would certainly help women like me to learn what tools are necessary and all the how-to's to make it happen for our personal dead spaces. Right now, every single room in my small 1500/sf home decries "make me functional too."
    Your idea to convert a vanity without drawers into a vanity with drawers far more functional. That was the best idea for me in this video because I have always wished I had drawers not realizing that was even possible. I thought I would have to replace the vanity in its entirety just to have a drawer or two. Thank you for sharing!💝💖 Much love to you from Texas.

    I did a gut renovation of my bathroom, and had two hidden cabinets with shallow shelves built into the paneling. I also had a shelf made of the scrap marble and installed on brackets between the medicine cabinet and sink. It looks gorgeous, but more importantly I can store my hairspray, makeup brushes, lipgloss, etc there… things I reach for all the time.

And 4 guys from America came in and helped them out. Got rid of the middleman and put the profits in the pockets of the families. Great story!

    Great ideas! Swapping out our little kids wardrobes is so time consuming so when I do it I go all in for a whole day. I'll prep boxes labeled for each new upcoming size. Even if a box is practically empty, I still have it and label it so it's ready to be filled. When they grow out of the current size, the next is washed and ready to be hung up. It becomes a chore only every six months instead of every other month!

    Can I share a storage place that almost no one uses but many do have in their homes? The space inside closets above the door. I added 6” long peg rack that extend past the door frame. We use it for everything like gift wrap rolls, caps, walking sticks, rifles, tied lace sneakers, cowboy hat,etc, etc, etc.

    I got attacked by a neighborhood pitbull last year and I still have hand, elbow, shoulder, and neck issues. I like the idea of the retractable hose and think it would help me daily as I atruggle to re-hand the hose and drag it with one arm. And yes, I am a fan of build-ins but they need to be planned as u say

    All great things. I want to go back and watch some of the older videos since I think I started following you when you redid the upstairs hallway. A couple of additional suggestions are pull-out trays in the lower kitchen cabinets. And a between the wall studs pantry as a way to find space. My dad did the pantry for me and it seriously is the best thing ever. I actually prefer it over a walk-in pantry for food storage.

    21:04 You asked what the marble thing was called you put one of the wooden shelves. It’s called a mortar and pestle. They’re used to mash/grind herbs, fruit peels, etc to bring out the essential oils, and flavor essences of herbs, fruit peelings (sometimes used in certain bar drinks too) and spices, in a natural way.
