I think this is beautiful but I think you should also consider making one of the rooms up stairs your master ESPECIALLY if you plan for one of those rooms to be a nursery. This downstairs room really looks like an office space to me and would be perfect for Romeo’s business especially being so close to the washer and dryer. It seems like the layout is funky and you could have a much more designed, cozy, and comfortable space upstairs! Also, when you have guests you could have your own sides of the house to keep privacy. I think a beautiful bench seating built in around the windows with shelves on either side of the windows would look beautiful for an office. Similar to what you built at the cottage! You always make things look beautiful, but as a mom, my suggestion would be to get closer to your future baby!❤
Omg I've been thinking this exact thing since the tour, I kept saying the nursery is so far away . Either way no matter what she decides it will be amazing
Definitely agree. So many reasons that room should not be the primary bedroom.
Yup. The master will be moved upstairs as soon as baby comes. No mother can be running up and down 3-5 times in the night to feed and comfort baby.
Lol masters are fine on the first floor even with babies. Most people co sleep till the baby or toddler sleep through the night and no one going up and down stairs just cause the master is on the first floor. 🙃
Primary bedroom is great right where it is..
Kinsley is the best accessory in the bedroom. 🐶🥰
I was thinking the same!
Just sitting in the bed, a true model 🥰
Flicking the lamp light switch was like the Friends episode when Phoebe blinks each time Monica is in the other apartment with the switch, trying to figure what it connects to… ☺️
Victoria, YES! The words “That Episode When” immediately ran through my head!😂
I was thinking the same thing :D lol
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yes! Thought the same thing.
🤣🤣🤣
It is really true what they say: "you give a woman a house and she makes it a home". I love your Videos so so much. You are such an Inspiration
Still can’t believe you have TWO amazing houses we get to see you turn into beautiful homes 💕
Everyday I have to pinch myself to see if all this is real 😊 so grateful
@@XOMaCenna and they both around 100 years old!
You work so hard hun you deserve it all and more . Praying for you all ❤🙏🏻
Kinsley just knowing she is the main character of the broll showing off the space. So precious 🤍🤍🤍🤍
We are being fed with all this home improvement content. First the cottage, now this 🥲 😍
Fed?
@@nclare7 fed is the past participle of feed which means to supply with nourishment.
It's a choice to watch or not...you are in control🙂
Excuse me ma'am but this is what the channel is about. Just find another channel.
I took it to mean what IH did, that we were being served a steady diet of what we loved. Maybe she (or he) will explain?
I think the bedroom will work much better upstairs, specially once you have children…I think this should be for now Romeo’s office maybe, and in the future, a play room. Hopefully, since you’re not starting renovations yet, this will give you time to live the house and think about the best layout. 😊 The decoration is wonderful though ❤
i'm so surprised that you guys chose this to be your bedroom and not one of the rooms upstairs, especially for long term with having kids! i feel like this room would make more sense as romeo's office (as a lot of others have said too) obviously we wouldn't truly know since we've never physically been in the space lol but the room does look beautiful regardless!! i love your style so much and i can't wait to see how you decorate the rest of the house!! and i really can't wait to see more progress at the cottage!!!
Totally agree
agreed im curious what her opinion is :)
Agree. I think they like the skylight? The laundry is also down there but i think she said it may get relocated. There are just too many doors going on. They may just be in there temporarily?
Romeo’s office is more like a shipping area with shelves, clothes racks and boxes. They probably don’t want it visible from the living room. Maybe they will move it once they need a nearby nursery though.
I find it odd too, especially as the bedroom is so easily visible from the living room, and there's no privacy. It's almost like a cramped apartment. It would be much better to use it as a study, or even a dining room.
For your cabinets that were painted with chalk paint you can use wax that is made specifically for finishing chalk paint. It gives it a gentle shine and gives it a durable finish.
Yes! And the current color is so pretty in there. I know she mentioned the hardware being black in a way that indicated she might not like it, but I think it's a good choice - a brighter metal would stand out too much, I think. I like that the pulls are dark and detailed but just blend in with the piece.
Great idea. Didn't realize there was such a thing.
I’ve painted both vanities in my home with chalk paint but put polyurethane to seal them and they are very durable
I was thinking the same thing! I have had a good experience with chalk paint and then using wax over my pieces. The finish is a soft shine but plenty durable.
Yes
Yes… watching MaCenna decorate is one of my favorite “Things” 😂
I know it could be a while away but do you think that when you do start a family that you’d swap your bedroom for one upstairs so that it would be closer to the nursery, so when baby does eventually go into their own room you’re not running up and down stairs all night 😅 xx
I agree i dont know why they want to sleep next to the living room.
Number 1. That rm down stairs was not meant to be a bed room, it was definitely a office space, you could actually put a sleeper sofa in there for when guests stay over, hence the bathroom is there for when you have company over. I would not want people going in and out of my bedroom to use the bathroom.
Agree, I think it would make more sense to have all bedrooms upstairs and Romeo can have that room as his office, close to laundry.
I could not sleep in a room with all those doors...
@@fidelmakelly6432 they could add curtains in front of the door too.
I can't wait until you clean out that storage unit!!! You have so many treasures in there!
Yep I'm team master is upstairs! Laying odds they will change their minds... and then we get another episode! Yippee!😄
Darker olive green on a focal wall would be beautiful, you could even run it up on the ceiling to make it feel rich but cozy.. I love the rug.
I’m so happy for you both. I love following along this journey with you. Congratulations! I still feel that huge bedroom upstairs should be the master, with the potential to breakdown the walls and make that bathroom and ensuite and this bedroom downstairs either Romeo’s room or ??? Someone in your past video explains it very well. Either way, I’m here for the ride. ♥️
Thank you for saying this! It stresses me out and I don't know why? That beautiful big bedroom should be the master, it's more private when you have guests over. When you start a family the kids room would be beside. Romeo can have that room downstairs and can organize his clothes in that big closet, the washer is right there for him and guests can stay in there when the over and guests would use that washroom and not the upstairs ones. The built in in that big bedroom is so nice and so are the big windows. The windows in the current bedroom remind me of a basement. I really hope you switch it!
I agree. Upstairs should be the master. Downstairs should be a office / guest room. I would also some day this year or next year add on another bedroom and small bathroom to the house for future children, downstairs, if there is room.
@@kodicannon3977 Romeo could use that garage! It is huge with tons on cabinets built in. California doesn't get that cold.
Still highly think your master bedroom should be upstairs!!!!!!!!!!
Kingsley in the final shot is everything! Lol!! Love her! 😊
Lol yes so funny haha
That storage above the w/d would be perfect for luggage. With just the handles sticking forward, it would be easy to pull them in and out.
I agree with where you made the bedroom. I would’ve chosen downstairs because all the living quarters is downstairs and it’s easier to take Kinsley out. She looks great on your bed and is the sweetest . You can always move upstairs at a later date when needed. I love the simplicity of your decor. We also have light switches in our house that we cannot use. 🤷♀️ Congratulations on the purchase of your new home! 🫶 It’s such a blessing. 🥰 Feb 1, 2023
Great Podcast!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
The louvered closet in laundry area would be great place to store collapsible step ladder to reach storage over washer/dryer. You should find a place upstairs as well for another step ladder. I have 2 story home & always need to reach things on top shelves somewhere!
Are you going to get your things out of the storage unit now since you have a house with more storage?
I love all the windows and doors that add so much character to your spaces. Dark walls in the bedroom would be beautiful, you have plenty of light. The room with the WD could double as a changing room. Hard to gage if there would be room. Great job!
I'm loving this decorating series of using what you already have for decor! It's already starting to look like your space! ❤
It's great!
Never clicked so fast on MaCenna’s video. Loving these new house series. Thanks for brightening our Sunday MaCenna 💙
Yes, this!! ❤
Ikr lol. Was watching another video and saw this pop up and bolted to watch this one lol
Puhlleeaase do a video on hanging art/mirrors. When I've measured to hang pieces side by side, one over the other or a certain height- they are uneven. Is there a typical height of where or how high it should hang. Also any and all, tips and tricks, or devices The struggle is real-lol 😩 Thank you💛
I think this room makes total sense as a bedroom at this point in your lives. When the babies come, then you can re evaluate your spaces. With Romeos office upstairs , its more private and conducive to getting work done. ALso , am so happy to hear you are taking the TV out of the bedroom! Best thing for a marriage ever!!!!!! A bedroom , at the end of the day , should be a place of refuge, relaxation and connecting. Things couples don't do when the TV is on. I love the idea of dark walls with the dark in that area rug and the picture over the dresser.
I agree. They don’t have children now, and may not be planning on having any. I think this space is perfect. It has ensuite bathroom and laundry. Beats hauling laundry up and down the stairs!! I would have choose this room for my master too.
I wouldn’t put master there but would use it as office room due to it being right next to lounge and open window doors. Also I wouldn’t want a laundry in my bedroom. Now I understand why everyone commented that it should be Romeos office. Anyway it’s just my personal opinion, very happy for you on your house!
Kinsley modeling on the bed at the end is just so cute!
I love your bedroom where it is, despite what everybody else says. It has a character, and it has the attached bathroom/laundry room!
I do, too! I absolutely LOVE this house!
I agree.
Okay now I get the comments on the last video. That downstairs bedroom is 100% a guest room or office. I could never envision that as a master. The master is for sure the larger room upstairs. Also I know upstairs room is for your mom but downstairs is more practical for her. As my mom got older her guest room was downstairs. This is because of mobility issues. This may also be the reason the previous homeowners made the downstairs bedroom a main/master bedroom. You have worked so hard and you are so humble but you deserve that upstairs room as your master bedroom.
Kinsley in the final shots 😭😭❤❤
Your new home has so much character. I absolutely love every part of it 😊💕
As a temporary fix, you could spray paint all the chrome details in the bathroom so they match the brass/golden
Yes but definitely look into some type of sealant if you do this. We sprayed our kitchen hardware and it worked great, except for the pulls we touch constantly with wet hands.
I have switched electric outlets but only the top plug is linked to the switch and the bottom plug is constant. Just a thought and worth checking. I did the same with my outdoor outlets…. Half and half.
Starting to look lived in and cozy. Nice job removing the vanity definitely makes the space look more spaces. Very pretty
I knew you would waste no time getting settled into your home! Glad things are a little slower! Everything looks great! As usual and using what you already have is great! PS I noticed Kinsley is staying very close by at all times! ☺️
Thank you for allowing us into your new house as you make it into your home🌟
With the switch and outlets- sometimes only one outlet- top or bottom- is hooked to light switch. So try it all!
Bedroom looks great. Kinsley makes the bed look fab ☺️
The sound of a hammer and nail is such a vibe in your home. For someone who uses their own two hands for everything this is absolutely beautiful. ❤
Love the rug in the bedroom and Kinsley did a great job of helping hang the pictures by the bed....all is looking lovely!
McKenna - looks so calming and lovely!
Kinsley is so sweet. Great model for your staging. Love what you did to the rooms.
My favorite accessory was the Kinsley on the bed!!! Well done! The rooms look beautiful!
The moody one your mom painted, it's in a vintage over my lime wash fireplace right now at the moment while I watch this video I'm staring at the same thing!!!!❤
Kinsley is the best decor you can ever have!!!
My home built 1962...omg it's like treasure hunt for what switch makes the outlet work tooooooo
This room would be nice as a library. I would put built ins. It’s kinda an awkward place for a master.
I love all the well meaning advice being given. I personally am team upstairs for the primary. But they are not use to this amount of space yet especially coming from a smaller home. She is making it how she knows. In time she will learn and when life changes she will adjust and we will get more content as a result. You do you MaCenna.
Wow! "In time she will learn"? Really? Just what is she supposed to learn?
No trolling here, but it sure sounded to me like that's what's you were doing. Just a wee bit condescending to say she doesn't know any better and she'll learn that your way is better. You say she's not used to living in a large space - have you seen her parents' home? Pretty sure she understands big spaces.
@@Lucinda_Jackson You are welcome to think as you wish…elsewhere. Bye bye now.
@@sldubs1701
I wasn't aware you were in charge. 🤣🤣🤣 I'll have my opinion and I'll have it here or anywhere I choose. Bye bye yourself.
I have no idea what you're talking about! I am not harassing anyone, you included. First, you haven't been nice. Second, I have only responded to YOUR comments addressed to ME! So good luck with that. Just walk away / there's no reason to fight. 🙄
I love that you are using what you already have. Everything is coming together so nicely. The process of turning your house into a home ❤❤
So the guests would have to go through their bedroom to get to the bathroom on the main floor?
Might seem like a crazy idea, but what if you hang the rug you currently have at the foot of your bed, on the wall directly behind your bed, a sort of headboard until you get the new bed. It would cushion the wall a bit and I think it would look very cool.
The rug looks great in your bedroom & the splash of color is perfect.
It looks all great and the cutest decoration is Kinsley🥰🤗
You are such an inspiration to me as I am currently trying to decorate our almost 500 year old home. You have given me so many ideas throughout your videos and barley anything is new as I am now officially obsessed with thrifting thanks to you ❤
I like how the painting your mom did for you, goes beautifully with the little section window in your bathroom. What a charming little house!
Using what you have already and working with what is there is really inspiring! Feels cozy. Thank you for sharing!
Honestly so refreshing to see a RUclipsr with a realistic makeup drawer
I suggest to switch your bed to the chest/tv wall. It affords a little more privacy and the dresser would look great under the windows from the living room. It would also give a better pathway to the laundry room
I don’t think there would be room for the side tables there, because there’s the closet door
The door to the laundry room would be in the way and probably couldn’t fit side tables with that closet door
I actually LOVE the art pieces beside the bed.. more so than a headboard, due to the windows. That’s turned out so pretty 🤎 (and wee Kinsley ☺️🥰)
I am so looking forward to the Texan house, it has something so special, I can't describe it. This house is great too, but the cottage is one of a kind. Thank you for spoiling us with so much content :)
Would LOVE to see you DIY one of those big mirrors!
I always feel so sad when your videos end! I love them and look forward to seeing you on Tuesday, Thurs and Sunday! Love everything you’re doing Macenna. 😊
I don't really get this room as a bedroom, especially with all the windows that allows you to see through from the other rooms in the house. Question about the candles: do you light them because it looks pretty when filming or you leave them on when you are in another part of the house?
I love all of the added touches 😍
Congratulations on the new house - I’m very proud of you two (weird, but true)… I wanted to ask you about the crown molding- you know how it took a minute to wrap your brain around it? I’m in the same boat. I would LOVE it if you could talk us through it the next time you do molding?
I'm so happy you posted now. I'm in Scotland and thought I'd have to go to bed before I could watch ☺️ I love your windows (even if they are painted shut). So quaint and cottagey
This is gorgeous Macenna !!! It's been about 3 years since Ive been following you. You've been an inspiration for me !
I recently shifted into a new apartment and everything has been haywire but your videos give me inspiration.. I love your style and in so happy to see the progress in your channel lots of love.. Siyona! 💓
I really enjoy watching you decorate with things you already own. It's helpful for those of us who can't run out and shop the antique store every time we need an update. The area rug you put in the bedroom is a great choice, and it beautifully picks up the palette of the art.
Will you be un-loading your big storage locker, near your old apartment now? You are putting things together very nicely. Looks good.
I love you, Macenna!!!
Make sure you try both outlets in that area! When I moved into my home I had switches that didn't work, but I found that I had to plug things into the bottom spot of the outlet haha! Electrical is so strange sometimes!
Yes! And try all wall switches in the room. Sometimes its the switch on the other side of the room by an entrance, that turns on a particular outlet or two outlets and sometimes you need to turn off both lamps, so they are in sync and will turn on. Try multiple things before calling an electrician. I had this same issue in a bedroom on either side of the bed and finally solved it.
Ann you should change the windowsills above your bed into one long shelf and have hanging plants there 😍
I do like white everywhere, especially in a bathroom cause you can tell it’s clean.
I just love your taste in decorating😍
It is amazing how home furnishings make a house instantly look like home!! Beautiful job MaCenna!!!
I'm loving that Kinsley is your shadow! She clearly loves you and the camera!
MaCenna I don't know how you do it. I had some major doubts about that bathroom and you made it look cohesive!! I know its probably a lot of hard work but you have so much talent too!
It's such a beautiful house. I'm sure whatever changes you make will also be incredible.
Love how the bedroom turned out! The rug makes it.
I think so, too! It grounds or anchors everything else!
We've never had a TV in our bedroom. I usually read and then wind down so I sleep better. I really like your furnishings. Good job
It seems like you love your work
I have waited all week for MaCenna video!!!!!!! I am loving the new home series👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻. You MaCenna are my inspiration for helping me decorate my home. Thank you so much for sharing the journey and I loved your podcast and excited to see the one with Mom❤
Sometimes less is more. And Kinsley makes the setup come together even more. Lol. It Looks real nice.
That Kinsley…🐾🥰
That rug matches the picture in your bedroom! Looks great there.
Things are coming together so beautifully.
I love watching how you put things together. It gives me so much inspiration ♥️
The great thing about a home and how you are taking your time decorating is that you can change. Change your mind about a room function, colors, renovations. I agree that I think you’ve chosen a weird room for the primary especially since it’s right off the living room. In addition, I’m a door closed kind of person, doors, drawers, cabinets, hampers,etc need to be closed or I just feel a little anxious. It’s a an oddity of mine.
Looks so cozy now, but would really consider moving the primary bedroom and bathroom upstairs. That way you make full use of the house rather than the upper floor risking being kind of separate/ unused as the main living areas of the house are all downstairs.
I love what you’re doing with her new home. ❤
Just by using what you have You've made a lovely place. You may find in the future when you have children you want to be on the same floor though. You will have lots that you're goto change the longer your there.
You make everything beautiful!
The bedroom will looks so much cozier once the brick is showing! ❤
I hope you don't mind a comment?! The doors leading to the laundry room are an ideal frame for a claw-foot bath! In the long-term demo, my vote would be to swap the laundry and bathroom around, as you have the plumbing already there to make the swap around easy. Love this video, though; it's great to see the repurposing.
Your bedroom and bathroom is looking beautiful. 👍🥰
I love bright white spaces but I think you are SO right about painting the bedroom a darker colour - I think you could make that look amazing and cozy!!
As for the switches, make sure the lamp is on when you plug it into the socket that you think is dead. Then try the switches that don’t work for anything else. Hopefully that’s the solution.
Loving your new house and the decorating! Kinsley is sooo adorable! ❤ also excited for the next podcast with your mom as well! I really enjoyed listening to the first episode!
