Your home is so clean and organized. There are people living in mini mansions who don't keep their homes as nicely as you do. Your attitude is everything. I really enjoyed your tour. It opened my mind to seeing how attitude makes a world of difference. I know a family living in a very similar style and size townhouse, and all they do is complain about wanting more and trashing the place. It truly is all about HOW you live. ❤
Amen
Yes her attitude is beautiful and commendable. Definitely admirable and gave me awesome ideas and things to aspire to, both physically and mentally. Now I need to go buy a new shower curtain asap lol😅
Agree 100 percent. I need to stop complaining-I need to be more grateful and appreciate my home-no matter how old my appliances are-it’s not important! It’s a healthy mind set to be grateful and humbled. ❤🫶🏼🙏🏼✨
Your joy is contagious!! 😍 Your place is so cute!! If my house wasn’t so messy I’d be showing it off too. Thank you for inspiring me!!
Much love, and many blessings to you from Kentucky.
I was going to comment the same thing. What a sense of peace that comes with gratitude.
“It's not about where you live; it's how you live.” I felt that one ❤❤
You nailed it. Her home was lovely dignity. Agree
Yep, I felt that too😁
Her home is ideal. So organized and peaceful. That is what home should feel like. ❤
I agree with this statement. Her home is nice, clean and organized. But there are areas of “the projects” in some cities where there may be a lot of gun violence and gang activity. Where your children can’t even go outside for fear that they might get shot by a stray bullet. It then becomes a matter of “where you live”.
Love this video! You have a lovely townhouse! Thank you for sharing your home! You are so blessed! Keep going, Sis!
My grandma lived in public housing for decades. She always said being poor was no excuse for being dirty or not carrying yourself with dignity. She kept a welcoming and tidy, if modest, home, and always dressed like a lady. Thank you for inviting us into your well-kept home!
Yes, no TV yet too distracting for youngsters. Smart move.
right @dmeneka , my grandmother taught me the same thing ...... thank you so much for sharing with us
@dameneko My mom would say that same thing!
This just looks like a normal apartment to me, like every place I've ever lived. In fact, it looks huge with a lot of amenties! It is honestly kind of comforting seeing an apartment tour that has the exact same type of kitchen cabinets, fridge, and crappy dishwasher that are in your own and has made it into a beautiful and personal space. I did crack up when you point at the bag of bags! "If ya know ya know!"
You know what I got from this video??? Not how beautiful and comfy your home is, but the woman of dignity and grace that you exude. You are beautiful, your voice is calming and I can tell how much you trust God. Blessings always.
me too. new subscriber xxx
Yes 👏 ❤
You said exactly what I was thinking
If you love home and are a homemaker, you can make a home anywhere! Your home is lovely, and cozy! ❤❤❤❤❤
Same. Agreed 100%. You have a lovely apartment. You make it beautiful and cozy as heaven. Love it.
This apartment looks nicer than a lot of apartments that aren't in the projects. You even have in-unit laundry. That's great!
Right! I was just going to say that!! Beautiful home ❤Be blessed, always!,
Was gonna say the same thing. Wayyy better than some apartments here. There are some I opt to wait outside rather than walk in. Love her organization tho!
Wayyyyy nicer! I live in an RV! And not a big, nice one! I would LOVE to have an apartment like this!
Yes I live in a 3 bedroom triplex with no counter or cabinet space one of the bedrooms I turned into a pantry because I have no room
nice spot! 🎉
I am a 54 year old white woman. Your video really moved me. What a beautiful and clean home. It is obviously a result of a beautiful and clean heart.
Her house is tidier than all of my neighbours' houses 😂😂😂
I don't know if you have seen houses in Europe, so this is a really nice space and comfortable, I don't know what kind of neighborhood you are in? But the house is excellent, beautiful, well organized and with enough space. You in America usually compete with the houses of movie actors who have 10 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms each, which I think is funny because it doesn't serve them anything.
Very nice home! Love it!
Why are you saying "white woman?" We are 'Women". No 9ne cares about skin color anymore. That's all MSM BS
It's beautiful. Just like you. Thank you for sharing.
This is motivating me to clean my messy ass house. Single working mom and I put my house last, I’m glad I saw this
you may even notice the kids have an easier time too, clutter stresses kids out even though they make so much of it. and dont feel bad making those kids clean
Yes I struggle keeping up with my messes but I notice the significant boost in my mental health when the house is clean and organized.
I lived in the projects...back in the 70's, and I remember how clean all the homes were. It was a mark of pride that you kept everything neat and tidy. We had a neighbour, Miss Robins, who gave all the children home baked goodies if we were respectful and in return we ran to the shop for her when she needed something. There was a real sense of community in our neighbourhood.
We looked out for each other, remember Tenant Patrol!
@@seaglass8940 We did look out for each other...as children we were sent out to check on elderly neighbours...my mother fed any child that showed up at the house and when we visited other's homes we would get fed there. I still remember the first time I had fried okra at a friends house and he came to ours and tried tortilla's for the first time!
Beautiful space. Every room is inviting and cozy. I have seen huge expensive houses that don’t hold a candle to yours. Many have the big house but they can’t decorate and they are either too cluttered or too empty , messy and have no warmth. You should be very proud of your home. Your Kids will have wonderful memories of their childhood and their home.
The good old days 😊
I love how you're saying things about God and saying to read that book about Joyce Myers. I think you're apt.is very very nice and pretty! You've done a great job of decorating!
This is what self respect and dignity looks like. Had she not told me she lived in the projects I would never have known. Nice place!
Yesssss! Very nice!
Agreed🙏🩷🧡❤️
Me either. Her home looks better than most homes I've seen. She is so blessed.
❤❤❤❤❤ beautiful
Yep! I clicked on this video out of curiosity. I have never lived in the project and just wanted to see. Girlfriend your place looks just as good as any of the apartments that I've rented in the past. Your place is lovely. And you are so right when you say that "it's not where you live, it's how you live"! And you my dear are living well. God bless you for your humility and thankfulness on your journey to where you want to be ! May God continue to bless you and your family.🙏
Girl, I had a child at 16, started out on section 8. 55 years later I’m a 38 year retired registered nurse, own my own home, and enjoying life. God rewards those whom feel the way you do.
Your place is lovely, and organized. God bless.
You are amazing. ❤
That's amazing! You beat the statistics, my friend.
It is so obvious that Meek is God-centered, her entire personality shines with it!
Amen!!! Retired before 40 is a FLEX
I'm on section 8 single mom with 2 girls 6&7. I'm going to school now online and working full time. I can't wait. I'm saving for a house etc i already own my car I'm 32. I know God has something for me i keep pushing in his path i will.
Letting the kid have a counter for his Legos is genius!
This is like where i live in nz, only you have a 3rd bedroom and small spaces are cosy and personal , easy living
Yes!!!! That Lego setup was genius! My aching feet shot to attention with that idea!!!
I worked in section 8 housing for 4 years. Many apartments were trashed and gross due to the tenants not caring. Your a dream tenant. Place is clean and organized and you take care of it. Ive been homeless in my life and i just bought my first house in Colorado and am doing well for myself. Everything can change in the blink of an eye. You’re doing amazing and should be proud. I wish the best for you!
Those were just trifling people 😂😂
@@user-se7hf3vm3v No those were people who didn't have no money at all.
Young woman, your house is perfect. You keep a clean, cozy and comfortable home. And you're a great Mama. Great job! You'll be in a brand new home when it's time. ❤❤
@@marcellinejackson9697 lmao
Great for home office
I noticed you dont have a lot of "stuff" you are not overwhelmed with clutter. Your attitude and spirit speaks volumes and it is reflected in your beautiful home. You are an inspiration to all, richer or poorer.
Very true. And I still say, bring/take your own washcloths and towels for planned trips.😄
@@bamarealist I take 2 flat sheets as well.
@@winh998 Yes😄👍
@@bamarealistthis tickled me, because this is what we were all taught by black parents 😂
@@OpinionatedMe_ Yup😄
Not sure what your intent was with this video but you delivered a sermon on contentment and gratitude. We won’t be here forever. God bless you woman of God.
💯 ❤
I think she was showing how everyone that lives in the PJs isn't dirty and nasty. Like the stereotype and myth of the liars would have you believe. 👍💯
Listen young lady, those appliances you have are much better than the newer ones.
New appliances doesn’t last long at all. Your home is beautiful.
New washing machines don’t even clean the clothes. And it takes hours for a cycle to complete.
They don't make em like they used to! 😢
There is nothing wrong with a white refrigerator - or a old school stove. Your heart for taking care of your family and your love of God is what makes you a million dollar lady ❤️
And they’re SO much easier to keep clean! They don’t scratch and show every little smudge and fingerprint. I wish that good old fashioned white enamel would make a comeback!
I've never had anything BUT white appliances. No way am I cleaning streaks off black or steel surfaces every day 😂
I love the old style stove and the fridge too.
Such a beautiful cosy home ❤❤❤ Blessings from Germany 🇩🇪
The meat doesn’t care what color the fridge is. 🙃
"Everything's not going to look perfect" *shows a perfectly clean and organized home*
What a beautiful space! ❤
Lol 😂
I know right? Not everything is going to be perfect. Then shows everything perfect 🤣 I love her
hi you have beauitful apartment i live in nycha apt for 11year i have 3 kids in 1 bedroom i sleep in living room iim wait for transfter god bless us amen
This reminds me of my home as a kid. We lived in a rough neighborhood in section 8 housing and my mom always had the yard manicured and the house decorated. She always told me to take care of whatever I had, even if it was a shack, and God will bless you with more!
❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉
Yes , those are true words. 💛
I'm a small landlord in Brooklyn who has come across many tenants throughout the years and all I can say is that you should be very proud of yourself. You keep a beautiful home and I love it! Nobody needs a mansion. I have a tenant who is 36 that just got married and moved her husband in recently. I never inspected her apartment because I like to trust people but after she lived there a few years, I had to go in there for a broken pipe when she was away. Well, all I can say is I was shocked and so upset. It was filthy. The walls were dirty and the bathroom was full of mildew. I could smell the bed sheets a mile away and they smelled like they were never washed.....ever! I gave the place to her spotless and so clean with fresh paint. It looks like she never even washed the floors either. If anyone saw her walking down the street, she wears expensive clothes and you'd think she was so clean. Well, the joke was on me. Anyway, the damage is done so I just let her be and didn't say anything. She pays the rent so I'm just going to wait for her to move and then I'll have to redo everything. If only everyone were like you, Ms. McIntyre. If only...
Where in Brooklyn is your rental?
@@P.Kenney Well, since this is the internet, I can't be specific. It's one of the most expensive areas. I actually don't like it and want to move somewhere peaceful.
@@alabaster193 I was an asking for a specific address, just the area.
I currently work in public housing management and let me just say, your unit is fabulous & I wish you were one of my residents. Thank you for keeping it nice and showing people that projects does NOT equal squalor.
I think your apartment is more luxurious than you give it credit for. Lots of people are going back to white appliances, no reason to apologize for that. Nice patio, storage, computer nook, storage, etc. I really didn't expect such a well appointed place. Your housekeeping is top tier! Thank you for sharing your home. It was eye opening.
Truth. I always had and loved white, unfortunately the home I am in does have stainless steel, it came with it. I will replace them as they die with white appliances.👍👍
I bought a house for 250k & it came with white appliances. Im keeping them
Your apartment is so nice! You have done such a lovely job decorating! Anna Maria Leader
Stainless steel is a big hassle because it shows EVERY little thing. I had a stainless steel microwave and I hated it because no matter how much I cleaned it never looked clean.
@@Momma_AL Absolutely. White appliances, you can see when they are clean, without the ugly mess of stainless, that never looks clean to me. 👍👍
Your place is very nice . VERY clean and organized. I'm 71 years old. I've lived in low income housing on and off for many years. I've never had a washer and dryer, what a blessing. You're a pretty young lady. Grow in the word, give Jesus honor and praise. God's got you!
It's not where you live, it's how you live.
Amen. Jesus will always keep us❤
She lives in a really nice place.
@@Collageartist69so 👍
You have a very nice home
I grew up in project housing. My mom is a clean/neat person so our tiny apt was always pristine like yours! 💖🤩I never understood why other folks in our building who were in same or slightly better situation to us had filthy spaces. There’s no excuse! I’m a firm believer that cleanliness improves everything
Seriously. This is the nicest place in a project community I have ever seen. When I was in that situation, I didn't even have carpet. It was all bare floors and no air conditioning. So small and of course in a crap neighborhood. Your place is very nice and decorated beautifully. I think you are very fortunate.
so true!
Loved it.
Yes, I've never seen what is considered a 'project' that are townhomes with your own separate outdoor entryway, a small front porch (as shown in the title pic) and with all the storage that her place has. Is it really the projects? Where is it?
Same. I wouldn't know she lived in the projects if she hadn't said it
Ikr. Thjs apt is YUGE!! Where is the roaches and rats? The lack of heat and hot water?
Just because you live in the projects doesn’t mean you have to live in filth!! YOUR HOME IS BEAUTIFUL & you can tell how much pride you’ve placed into your space. Your children are blessed to have you!! Thank you for sharing your space with us GOD BLESS YOU & YOUR FAMILY ❤

EXACTLY
You can tell your home is your family's sanctuary. MEEk, you speak words of wisdom. Your children are blessed to have a mom like you.
YES!!🎉
Qq@@tamarajoquintanilla9467
I lived in the projects. I like yours better because we didn’t have any pantry, patio, or washer and dryer. But what we do have in common is the level of respect for our home and the cleanliness.
This did come with a washer and dryer I brought my own, just the hookup. Thanks for watching it’s appreciated ❤️
Your home is lovely! I am a 60 year old white woman in Texas, I admire you so much. I grew up in a trailer full of roaches, and now no bugs, 2 story house that we don’t need and a pool in the backyard. My house is no more a home than yours is. Unless you block me I am going to follow you for the strong woman and mother you are. Praying for blessings for you and your family.❤
us women have to stick together. God bless.
That has nothing to with her nice clean no roaches apartment??? Your place was nasty hers is not ! Ok
@@nicolecarter2646why you so rude? She said she grew up in a bad place . Her parents were responsible for the filth in her house. She was relating to being low income. Being White they probably didn’t qualify for free housing like blacks do, which is what is leading this country into communism.So you can just stop speaking nonsense .
Why would she block you?
This was such a strange comment
Cleaning and organization is free. Living in the projects isn’t stopping anyone from cleaning, love this video.
Thank you! EXACTLY
Very nice dear. You are very clean and organized. You sound like a sweetheart and fun. I look forward to more of your videos.
No, disability is
Very well said.
Your apartment is very nice. Projects or not it's a great space. Your decor is beautiful.
Thank you so much!
@@34shadesofmeek72girl! I LOVE your attitude! Subscribing right now! Looking forward to more videos!!
Yes, I love your attitude. I also am subscribing to your channel. May the good Lord keep blessing you ❤
Do you remember a movie called "Candyman"? 😮
It all looks perfect to me! Very nice home. Best Wishes.
This is how a place should look no matter If you live in projects, apartments on in the garage. Cleanliness is next to Godliness. 🎉
Exactly
Very well said.
I've been a single mother since 1987 and I would have loved an apartment like yours and with washer dryer! No laundromat!! I'm now a single Gma raising my disabled grandson and own my own little house, and I am so thankful every day. THANKFUL, I hear you about thankful!
I was born in August 1987
“It’s not where you live. It’s how you live” Words to live by! So glad I found this channel! Love your videos!
This lady has a phenomenal attitude. She is motivated to make the best of what she has. Her home is spotless and beautifully organised. She has created a cosy retreat for her and her family. My mum was brought up in a labourer's cottage in the UK, with damp running down the walls and orange boxes for furniture, an outside loo and no hot water. She wanted something better too and, with hard work, she and dad built their own warm and comfortable home. You are an inspiration - an industrious, determined and ambitious young woman who does the best she can.
Organized
When I was first married with a small baby, we lived in low rentals in a small city in Canada. The floors were old vinyl tiles. The one bathroom had visible plumbing. The kitchen had a sink with 3 feet of old metal cupboards attached. Fridge was not included, nor stove. The small living room had worn wooden floors, which we refinished. There were two bedrooms. In that sparse apartment, we made our first home. I made sure it was clean. Outside there were lawns we had to water, and playground for the kids. I have had beautiful homes since, but I count those 7 years as the best of my life. Because rent was so low, we could afford me to attend university to become a teacher. I'm retired now.. but I remember those years fondly.
It's so apparent that the main ingredient in your life is a love of being alive. May God continue to bless you and your family.
It’s not where you live, it’s how you live! You are a great housekeeper, organizer, and decorator!
Okay ❤️❤️❤️💯
This video inspired me to reorganize my own house. Luxury IS a mindset, and I’m so tired of the junk everywhere. Let’s get some luxury up in here!
Same sis 😅
Yes!! Luxury IS a mindset and is so subjective/relative.
Love how clean your space is. You take care of your things and appreciate them and you're grateful for all of it. You have an awesome attitude! You're humble and take better care of what you own as opposed to privileged people who do have the money to buy things whenever they feel like it! You show the value of gratitude. God will treat you well and look out for you 🙏 also the lack of clutter is truly the best.
Wow, they call this the projects? I lived in the projects in Brooklyn, NY during the 80's and 90's and we ain't have a dishwasher, washer and dryer area, 2 bathrooms, outside patio area, computer desk area in the living room, smh. This is a nice place so gratitude to the Most High for whatever you have. Thanks for sharing!
From what I know, you’re still not going to find dishwashers washer/dryer etc in NYCHA. I have coworkers who live in NYCHA and getting heat and hot water in the winter and gas for cooking are luxuries many buildings dont provide still for whatever reason, plus rats are living there rent free. I heard that some NYCHA complexes are better than others though.
I love how she doesn’t trust the dishwasher lol
Yeah as someone in Philly I wouldn't exactly describe the rowhomes as the projects there might just be a few bad neighborhoods/blocks that's all
I was coming here to say the same. I lived in NYCHA, and we barely had heat and hot water!😤
I've never seen this in the projects either but any apartment complex in the hood is considered the projects no matter what's inside or out.
The way you say things like "Im grateful", "I appreciate", "it works".. love it. I just found your videos and I think you're a gem.
Nice apartment. Great attitude. I was a landlord for nearly 30 years. You seem like a dream tenant. May God honor your gratitude, see your humility and bless you with your own. 🙏🏾
Absolutely & you know He will 💜🙏🏾💜
I am watching a strong and proud woman who has done a beautiful job with her “home”..it’s not where you live, it’s how you live. You are so organized and have such an eye for decorating..you’ve really made this a home for you and your children..❤
I live in a one bedroom SMALL apartment in Montana. My kitchen is so tiny, it’s a front room, kitchenette, bedroom and bathroom. 2 closets, one small closet by the tiny kitchen with narrow cupboards. Your bedroom is bigger than my 1 bedroom. Your apartment is really nice. Also my apartment is half basement. No washer and dryer. You inspired me to get busy and fix it up in here. I am thankful. Don’t think I’m ungrateful for what I have. I have a roof over my head. You are an inspiration! I am a widow and I’m disabled from a rollover accident where I broke my neck. I’m still walking, thank you God! My husband died at 51 and I can’t keep up with a lot, like I used to. I’m thankful to wake up every day. I suffer from seasonal depression which wasn’t so bad until Covid hit and I was stuck in here for months on end by myself. I’m excited about spring. I’ll be 70 the 18th. Jesus has kept me alive and it’s really a miracle. You just keep on being your sweet self!!
Me too! I am going to organize and clean tomorrow. I'm embarrassed at how I've let my house get!
@@jehouse61 oh me too! I don’t know what’s the matter with me. I mean I don’t hoard but I’m terribly messy. 😬 We can do it!!! We can!! I do a lot of stuff, crochet, diamond painting, and paper quilling. I love the quilling the best. But I cannot do it in a mess!
I am 70 broke my neck in a fall a year ago. It is not healing well so have some issues. Getting old is hard for sure. I paint to sooth my time alone. Yes I am also so eager for spring to get here. My life is not as tough as yours. I still keep up 7 huge flower beds. It is getting hard to do now. My husband helps some. I sit on a wheeled garden cart to move around the flower beds. I probley look like a drunk. Have fallen off that cart many times. Reaching for things LOL.I feed the birds and hummingbirds. You can make your own hummingbird food. If would like I can tell you how. It is easy and not costly. You can even get small feeders that suction to a window.
@@functionsbyradar995 oh I would love that! I’d say you have it worse physically. I’m so glad you have flower beds! Flowers are such a gift to us! And I’m glad you have your husband to help you. I believe we all have our problems and setting older is so shocking isn’t it?! God bless you❤️
Get a pin & paper. You will be shocked how easy making hummingbird food is. How much less the cost is from buying it. By the way that red stuff is very bad for their bills and causes them to not be able to eat...'Also never use anything other than as hot water will come out of tap for cleaning the feeder. It will harm them. I have feed them for years. The first year you might not have a lot of birds. Do not be disappointed. Each year the number increases. Also never place feeders close to each other, they are a bit territorial. I have a feeder in back & front yard so they cannot see each other LOL. Their battles will amuse you for hours. if are like me. Also, they might not seem to be coming for a while because the scouts for finding food come first. Also, when flowers are in full bloom, they eat the nectar a lot. The proper time is about right after Easter. Or when the nights do not go lower than about 50. They leave in late fall depending on night temp. Or after the first hard frost.
TO CLEAN THE FEEDER & CARE FOR FEEDER.
You only need hot water, small dishpan, disposable gloves & a baby bottle type scrub brush.
Take feeder apart completely. perch's, the food - guards, bottoms or lids. When new just use the hot water method alone. Once have used the feeder. Do it how describe below way.
emptied-out
MAKING HOMEMADE HUMMINGBIRD FOOD
Any sized feeder used you will just need to remember it is always. Two parts water too.1 part sugar. Using your feeder like a measuring cup.
You will need a well-scrubbed & rinsed saucepan large enough to fit water for the size feeder are using. Just measure the amount of water feeder holds by testing it out before ever using it. Bottled water is best for health of birds as tap water has chemicals. Pour the amount of water need into pan. Turn on heat. Heat the water to almost boiling point. Then just add in granulated table sugar. Do this slowly and be sure to stir it well. You will know is done when it returns to a clear color. Allow this mix to become room temp before putting in put back together feeder now you are ready to hang the feeder. It is just that easy. Always fill & soak sink used in bleach water as are cleaning a bird feeder. Clean counter area in bleach water as well. @@user-dm1pt4ru6e
That's the neatest, cleanest project apartment I've ever seen. I've seen the projects before. My grandmother lived in one; and you have a luxurious home. You keep making it sound like you are explaining your home as less than. Lady be proud of your home! It's amazing.
Most AA people in the projects have neat and tidy homes. I’ve only seen a few that weren’t, and it was more of a light hoarding situation than a dirty place.
We don't let America know what we have we also don't disclose the money we have most black people got that bag. We don't care what people think as long as we know people also think I'm Brock it's not what you do it's how you did it 💯🤷🏽♀️
That apartment is bigger and has more amenities than the tiny apartment I've worked 25 years to pay off... and I live in a "fancy" area called Sandton in South Africa. I could do with project housing if it's that size!
You have a beautiful home for your family.
You have a beautiful townhome/row home. Projects I've seen are usually high rise housing authority buildings. Just like on "Good Times". I had relatives that lived in the projects. There's nothing wrong with your home it's very nice.🥰
I came across your page. I'm 68 yrs old and I feel that you live a life next to God . There is a peace that you give off. God bless you and your family
Agreed!
I love your apartment! Its so beautiful because its comfy, tidy, clean and its yours! You show how you make it a beautiful home because of the love and care you put into it for you and your kids!
It doesnt matter where you live as long as everything is comfy and clean and cute enough with what you have!
Congrats to you for overcoming difficulties and getting where you are! ❤
Holy cow! This is the “projects?!?” It looks huge! And spotless, beautifully decorated, and organized. You have SO much to be proud of. I really appreciate you telling us not to let the insensitive comments of others get you in a bad mindset; wise words. Now I feel like I want to go clean and decorate my house! What city (or part of the country) are you from? You and your children deserve every kind of blessing! Thank you for this inspirational video. ❤
Your place is absolutely beautiful. ❤❤❤
Wheee is this project at ? What state is this ?
Agreed! My apartment is a 1600/month “luxury” apartment and I would be perfectly happy living in this apartment instead. It’s probably about the same size and the stainless steel appliances do not enhance my quality of life 😂
I'm impressed with the washer and dryer. I would love to not have to go to the laundry weekly!!!!
Section 8 housing can really vary. It depends on how new the units are and the maintenance of the building and land where the housing is located.
I don't know you, but I'm proud of you. You showed what can be done with any amount of space when it's kept clean and organized. Your space shows you've taught your children to appreciate what they have also. Plus you ain't ashamed to acknowledge our Lord and the space you've created to worship him. Blessings surely will continue to be poured out on you.
Your home is a reflection of you, I admire your respect for your daughter. You are teaching her about boundaries, she feels comfortable enough to say mom don’t show my room and you respect that. I think you are a great mother and you have a lovely home, it’s beautifully decorated and very clean and organized. Thank you for sharing it with us ! 💕 🙏🌞🪴🌻🌼
I can't understand how anyone could think this is anything but a nice, basic, perfectly functional apartment. At 26, when I first lived in a place like this, it was a *huge* step *up* from the kind of places I'd been living in since I'd left my abusive home at 17. The longest I've ever lived in one place was in a one bedroom apartment very much like this one. I lived in it for 12 years very happily. Everyone else I knew had places like this too. Most still do. I only left because I fell in love with a single father who was raising two children, so we needed more space. I was 43 at the time.
That spirit of gratitude mindset will get you everything you desire in life. And your home is beautiful, just like your soul ♥️
You have a lovely home. I’m a disabled senior trying to find affordable housing and your beautiful abode is Goals to me! Thank you for sharing your space with us; when I saw what you’ve done with everything and how nicely you’ve personalized the space it gave me hope that perhaps I too will be so blessed. Thank you for refreshing my faith and hope in Father to remember that no matter what, He’s got me. From what you’ve shown here I’d say He’s got you too! Praise be the Most High, His Mercy endures forever! Stay Blessed, dear heart. You’re inspiring to see. Thank you for sharing this.
Bless you Hon. GOD'S GOT IT!
Google wooda cooper corporation they have income based housing and they have units in alot of different states. Hope you can find something soon.
Girl.... Don't be so hard on yourself. You're doing great! You have a place to lay your heads at night, appliances to feed your family, and it's all clean and tidy. Good Job Mama! Proud of you
your apartment is so clean and well kept and i'm glad you're not "ashamed" or scared to show your reality because there's nothing to be ashamed of. you're doing an amazing job keeping it nice, clean and organized :)
Beautiful apartment!! All apartments should include a washer and dryer, makes life so much easier, especially if you have children.
I grew up in a project in the 60's. Wonderful neighbors from all over the world. My neighbors were so good to my sister, brother and myself. They were there for us with our tragedy. Our homes were clean and we shared food. I have gratitude in my life. Bless the poor. Be generous to others. Sending love to this sweet woman.
I know people in wealthy suburbs that pay 3k+ for tiny and poorly kept STUDIO apartments, and here is an apartment in the projects that is nicer than any of them. What a home is worth is different for everybody. Some people sacrifice everything for location. Some people sacrifice everything for square footage. Some people don’t have much choice. The important things are these: Do you have what you need? Is your home safe? Do you find refuge in it? Is there love in it? Are you making happy memories there? Can you feel at peace there?
Having a home is like having a relationship. It needs to provide safety and security, and we need to invest care and time into it. This is a great example of a home that the family takes pride in and cares for well, and it shows. It is very lucky to grow up in a home that is so cozy and calm and warm.
Your home is beautiful, and you are a beautiful person! Being a single mom is hard. People don't realize just how tough it can be. Thank you for sharing, and encouraging! Bless!
It’s way nicer than I thought it would be. It’s very clean and you can tell you have pride and gratitude. I am also a single mom, I am now 59 and my girls are now 35 & 30. I worked really hard and when my girls were little we lived in a one bedroom one bath trailer, it was 400 square feet. By the time my daughters were preteen and a teenager I had earned my masters degree and was able to buy a 3 bedroom 2 bath house. I did everything be myself while living in the very expensive Bay Area. You can do anything you put your mind to. You have a great spirit and attitude. Thanks for sharing wish you well.
Your "project apartment" is a lot nicer than my small house in the suburbs. I inherited it from my father, who passed a few months ago. He was a hoarder so I've got some work to do on it and not a lot of $$ but you've really inspired me. I remember taking a financial class at my church years ago and the elder who was teaching said the goal should be to live at a world class level with whatever resources and income you currently have & it looks like you're doing that. Blessings to you!
Your home is immaculately clean, uncluttered, organized and decorated beautifully. At this point in the world today, we should all be so fortunate to have a cozy, warm and inviting place to call home. A lot of people aren’t so fortunate.
Respect for your daughter...space for your son...respect for your space...you are someone to be looked up to!!!.. you are the BEST of the BEST!!!!!❤❤
Great video! 🎉 This took me back. My son and I lived in the hood in a townhome apartments and people judged the area thinking my apartment would be shabby and unkempt. Baby, when my now husbands parents stepped in, they couldnt believe their eyes. Everything was neat, clean, the color scheme and minimal decor was on point, etc. They have money, land passed down, properties, etc. They thought my maintenance job wouldnt afford me decent things, that Id have roaches, and live rundown. No, baby! You can find gems in Roses, Family Dollar, Dollar Tree, Goodwill, etc.
OkAAAy!!!🫰🏾🫰🏾🫰🏾 All my FAV stores…Dollar General as well!!!
Nice big kitchen
Your home shows that you care about being a good mother and caring for yourself and your children. Thank you for inviting us into your home. ❤
Loved this.
I just want to say I truly see you. A human. A black woman. A mother. A provider. Bless you for everything you are and more.
Thank you for showing us a bit of your life. Much love.
amen! a real person living life and doing well
❤❤❤
Nice clean apartment
Lady, I love your home and it looks better than 90% of homes that are not in the projects! Seriously, you are amazing.
Your home is lovely. You’re providing a lovely, clean home for your children. You’re teaching them by example. Great job! Be Blessed! ❤
😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
That’s “the projects”? Better starting palette than I’d imagined. Beyond that you’ve done an excellent job of decorating and organizing and you keep it so nice and clean. I think this channel has great potential. Keep sharing your home, cleaning, shopping, etc… busting the myths about income based everything. Showing reality because I’m sure not all people have as nice a place, and if they do, I’m sure many struggle with cleaning, working, taking care of kids and raising them right. You have much to share and you’ll be amazed how your audience grows. You could help others adjust the way they do things to live a best life just by example. No judgement. No preaching Everyone could use help and I can see this taking off. I’m a plus 1 today because I want to watch you take off. Personally I really like cleaning vids, before and after, organizing and I’m not the only one. This is the first video of yours that I’ve watched so I don’t know if you have some formal theme going yet but think you could ride this puppy. I really like your perspective. Good luck.
@unfrozencavemanlawyer3950...And I like your comment and encouragement. I hope this channel succeeds.
Shoutout to all the project housing families out there, showing the world that our homes and our lives are beautiful! You're breaking down stereotypes every single day, and that's something to be proud of. Project housing doesn't equal filth, and you're proof of that! Keep sharing your story and inspiring others.
You’re home is beautiful. I can tell that you’re a good Mom and a positive person. God bless you.
I’m from the projects in NY & ours didn’t look like this but it was Our Home. Years later I’m in an income based townhome and it’s the BEST apartment I’ve ever had as an adult! My son has his own room, he’s comfortable, he safe and that’s all that matters to me ❣️
Love it!! ❤
I lived in Dyckman St. projects from 1955-1966 7 buildings, 14 floors! My mother was constantly redecorating and moving furniture around, she kept it lovely! 😊
Hello from a single mother of now-adult sons over in the UK. I love your home! There is NOTHING like having a door of your own to close whenever you want, and to open for friends and family. Enjoy!
Your home is clean, organized, cozy, full of love and kindness. So many "affluent" ppl dont have none of that. Your apartment is your castle, and youve made it so. The plastic bags..my mom has hers under the sink and every time we open the doors we have to hurry and catch em all! Youre doing an EXCELLENT JOB!!! Loved the video!❤️❤️
I grew up in a public housing project. I was born in '72. We lived there from 1979 to 1989. Age 6 to 16. My mother was a single mom with 3 kids. We had the best childhood, and we didn't realize we were poor until some mean kids at school told us so.
Ours was townhouse style, too. They were built in the mid 1940s, brick design, and by the 70s, they definitely needed an upgrade, which they did in 1999, but 10 years after we moved out. There was always a cockroach problem. My mother kept the cleanest home, but they would find their way through from the neighbors' apartments. They were not fun.
There weren't any dishwashers or laundry area. My mom would have the washer hooked up right beside the sink. And our dryer was next to our fridge and held our microwave, which was huge at the time. Lol.
I'm 51 now and a suburban SAHM. I would give anything to go back in time and live one whole day in my childhood home. There is just no one around here to play double dutch with. 😢
Your home is beautiful and cozy! I loved your video!
Your home is so cozy, well organized, clean and just beautiful . Just another proof that creating a cozy environment doesn’t require much money,
That stove was spotless. I need to know how, because my old stove will not come clean like that.
Your home is beautiful! Because of an income based house, I was able to take care of 2 sons as a single and go to school at the age of 42 and become an elementary school teacher! Your home is beautiful and so are you! I am now 73 years old. 7 years ago i was able to buy a completely remodeled home for $50,000 with a house payment of $381.00 per month! Your home video has inspired me to get rid of all excess clutter 😅 because of how beautiful your home is! Sweetie, I'm proud of you though I've never met you! Keep up GOD'S good work!
So glad I came across your channel. I'm 66 years old and it is so refreshing to see a young lady as yourself who loves the Lord and Who is so thankful for what you have. Thank you for inspiring me and many others. Love your channel!
I live in a tiny studio in a low income housing apartment complex and i adore it because it is my space. I think having gratitude for what you have is so important. Your apartment is lovely and very homey and clean!
I started out in projects, and I made it beautiful as well. How you live reflects who you are inside. How you start out doesn’t determine how you end up, it’s all about the mindset, it’s a stepping stone to where you’re going! As I stated, I started where you are, and I went to College, got a great job then a career! All while living in the projects. From there the sky is the limit! I married, had children, brought a 3500 sq ft home, now an EMPTY NESTOR/Widow, I’m in my 1300 sq ft retirement home and I love it! NEVER regretting my past, embracing it because it was my humble beginnings!
You got this young lady!!!
Beautifully said 🕊️💚
We need more content like this. You represent majority of people’s environment and situations. Thank you for sharing!
Yes indeed!
If most people in the projects lived like this it wouldn’t be the projects. I’d say she is most likely one of the few who takes care of her home. You don’t have to be rich to not throw your trash everywhere and destroy your community.
Unfortunately too many live in the projects because they can't get off their butts to work.
@@ginadietz4531This!!
You have a lovely home and your attitude is so beautiful… ❤ I just turned 50 and we just bought a house 2 years ago, it took us a LONG time, but we did it! All in God’s good timing… 🙏🏻
Congratulations on your buying!
Your home is filled with books, greens, and beautiful things!
Your home is so nice. It doesnt look like the projects, it doesnt even look like an apartment. To me it looks like a house. .Love that the bedrooms are upstairs. Love the fact that you have a backyard. The entire place looks so welcoming and cozy.
Lovely
I agree. That’s a very nice apartment and very large. You’re blessed!
I had to comment on this. First of all I have NEVER seen projects that have a dishwasher, desk area, lights in the closets, walkin closets and two pantries. Thanks for being transparent! I love your stance on life. Keep up the good work!
I've never lived in the projects, but had friends that did & I've seen other project communities, but, like you said, none had those amenities! She actually lives in a townhome, if the title pic is accurate, and also has a small front porch. Where do they have projects like this?
I wouldn’t have known it was the projects. You did a beautiful job through out the whole house. It’s clean, organized and the pieces (fireplace, mirrors and plants) just elevated the place entirely. Very peaceful home and your children are calm which is a testament to your dedication to detail in all aspects.
Cozy, beautiful home and safe space for you family. Excellent! Love makes a home and nothing else.
It is so cool that you even thought to do this! So many people have preconceived ideas and judgement, and in one well-produced video you cut through the ignorance and counter with dignity. That’s a major step in changing the word, eliminating ignorance. You are also teaching those who don’t have a lot, or have to depend on a subsidy that however little we have, we can create a home, we can create beauty and that gratitude itself is a light. On top of that you’re smart, a loving mom, and you clearly have a gift with design. I see good things ahead for you. As for myself, you make me want to clean house tomorrow lol.
You are so organized. Your home is beautiful. I love that your sofa is not against the wall. Not having a TV in your son's room is so smart. It promotes interaction with the family.
Thank you for sharing your home with everyone. I was very poor growing up, but we weren’t dirty or lived in filth. Some people have the misconception that all poor people are nasty. But I have been in rich people’s houses that are filthy. I can’t believe they don’t appreciate what they have. I see you don’t take anything for granted. May God bless you and your children. Thank you again
What a cozy home, I can tell your home is full of love. Thank you so much for sharing and I hope you and your kiddos have a blessed day!
Your home is beautiful! "It's not where you live; it's how you Live!!" I love that Sis! Your home screams Love, Comfort, and Safety. I love this. On top of all that, it is very well-kept. You're doing a great job. Thank you for sharing your space.
I grew up with a single mother in the projects from 2nd grade until 9th grade. Your apartment is alot bigger compared to the two bedroom one bath I grew up in. We only had space for a washer, and no dryer we had a clothes line. Definetely had no dishwasher. Saying that though I wouldn't trade my upbringing for anything because we had community, it also taught me compassion and empathy. We knew our neighbors, people looked out for eachother and although we were in the projects for the most part people had pride in where and how they lived. I live in an upper middle class suburban neighborhood now, but it never gives me tht sense of community like when I grew up and I miss that. My mother was much like you had nice things, put together well, and kept the apartment spotless. Looking back on that as an adult I truly appreciate how she made the apartment feel like home, and I know your kids will feel the same. I truly pray that God answers your prayers and all of your wildess dreams for you and your children. The old could use a lot more people with your mindset and positivity.
Honey, it’s your castle. It’s clean nice and cozy 😍your mindset is amazing!!!
Dignity is not a bank balance. ;) Your space is so calm, and peaceful. I always love spaces like this, because I think of it like when I was a child. When you feel cozy, protected, and that all is well. I lived with no laundry and no dishwasher for almost 20 years. It was such an upgrade to have laundry and a dishwasher. It was a trade off to what I did have at that time. I think as Americans we need to realize how much we really have, in that 2 billion people don't have drinking water. And 750 million people don't have electricity. I've always thought that - not where you live, but how.
Your home is lovely. Even lovelier is your gratefulness, joy, and ability of making the most of what you have! Your home is well cared for and cozy! God bless you.
Your home says a lot about you. You are a caring person; industrious; hospitable; kind; humble. Your kids have a great start in life because of your good qualities. Thank you for the nice tour.
Right on!
Yes!
this!! Those kids will come up fine regardless!
The way you keep your home I wouldn't of know it was the project until you said something. You're home is GREAT!
That is right you have a beautiful home. Be big and proud. I love how grateful you are. Love it.❤
