Great to have you back, Monica!
Missed you, Monica!!! I loved your The Weekender series. Please bring it back! 😢
Thanks!
Me too
Yasss!
What I just found this channel. Monica is so creative. I love your work.
@@TouchofShunshine Qee
Yay!!! You're back! Just last week I was watching all your old videos!!! Yippee!
I was missing you Monica! Love the video!
Yayyyy!!!!!!!!! I watched all the previous episodes and seasons with my kids!! We love Monica!
So happy to see Monica back! Monica, you were sorely missed! Welcome back!
I love the yarn backdrop. It's colourful but not distracting, and it can be moved around, it's perfect.
I would never have thought of doing a standing desk that way, it's a great alternative to electric desks. I'm moving into a new apartment as soon as possible and I've been re-watching all the past seasons of The Weekender for inspiration. Thank you so much!
Welcome baaack Monica! We missed you.
Thank goodness! I’ve missed Monica!
So glad to see you back!!!! 😊
Great job!
Only one major problem...
My wife saw this wonderful transformation and now has my Lowe’s shopping list made out for me!
Doesn't sound like a 'problem' to me :)
Wish I knew where to find the exact products needed for the backdrop
That backdrop is genius
Monica is awesome. Give this lady longer video time.
I missed you! Love the corner transformation 😍.
YAY! Monica!!!!
Omg!!! Yay!!!!!!!! :D Monica! You are my favorite!! ♡

Well thanks!

This was so amazing. I'm always happy when I can watch your do anything. Thanks
Wow at first I didn't think it would happen but when you showed the finished home office space it looked great 👍
I missed you Monica! Beautiful transformation
So great to see Monica again!!!!!
You know why I love Monica so much? Her ideas are original! She’s super creative! Love love love ❤️
Aww thanks Joyce!
Genius! Love the backdrop idea 🤎💛💚💜💙
I love this woman 😍 thanks Monica!
I love how this showed Monica's style and doable ideas and created really useful new functionality problem-solving for the sudden working at home many are facing. Having a great backdrop for video calls is such a nice touch and did look relaxing to make. Macrame-like, textural, organic, custom colors so I really dig it.
Glad you love it!
Mónica, I love you, loved the Weekender, and now I love this series! Many Blessings to you.
Thanks!
Love your ideas! Really like the video back drop idea!
Monica , I’m really glad you read these comments and are back. I have to be motivated to work on diy projects and you are definitely one of my resources for that. My house (and neighbors) says “THANK YOU!”
Hi nice job, I wouldn't do a rainbow on my wall but that is what you like and respect that. Standing desk and a PVC frame for VC background are great. TNX
Yay Monica's back! Maybe turning one of the rooms into a home theater would be cool.
Yes! We may have something up our sleeve as a part of an upcoming project!
@@monicamangin5678 hello my name is Donato
I missed you Monica!!!
Thank goodness your back Monica😊😊😊THIS IS A GREAT HOME OFFICE
Thanks!
So happy to see Monica!! 💖
Appreciate that!
I work from home 80% of the time so really need to find a 'spot'. I'm at the dining room table now and when I have company (not now, but in the past, and hopefully in the future) I have to move everything. It's a pain. The joys of living in a small house. LOL
This is so good! I love it! Someone could have a whole business of diy office backdrops. Not a bad idea! So who else here is dying for a home tour! You have so much going on in your home and I want to learn about all of it! The geometric shapes above the fireplace and bookcases, what?!!?! So cool.
I love her videos! I just bought my first home- I wish Monica could decorate it.
Congrats on your first home! Super exciting!
Yaaaaaaaaaaaaay! So glad to have Monica back! Our new house has what looks like two formal dining rooms. I'd like to turn one into a quiet retreat for reading and meeting for Bible study with friends.
OMG OMG OMG MONICA IS BAAAAAACK!!!!!!!!! I will watch this episode 5 times..... today ..... my life has a reason 😍❤️❤️❤️❤️
Ha thanks!
I'm so happy Monica is back! 🥳🥳🥳🥳
Thanks Nora!
Monica I missed you in this channel.
I wish I could see. Better the backdrop. Stunning job as always. Genius the idea of the double desk.
I am DIYing as well from home, and you always can find supplies around
So happy you put something back up! You're one of my favorite DIY bloggers and I check your blog ALL THE TIME for updates. Love your new home office!
This is what I needed. The adjustable stand up/sit down desk idea was great! I would love to see a bedroom with a crafting/sewing area.
So happy to have you back Monica, Yay!!!! Love the episode, as I too am working from home. Trying to figure my office dining room out. Thanks for the inspiration 🎨
GODDDD! my face lit up when i saw this video!! we miss monica!!!!!!
YAY, Monica is back! Great makeover. I would like to see a small screened in patio makeover with painting a concrete floor and making a small outdoor kitchen area.
Thanks for watching Kevin and for sharing your ideas with me!
Anything Monica does is perfection! Welcome back!
Well thank you very much!
Monica's back!! ❤️ Most comforting news on RUclips during this stressful time, thanks Lowe's!
Glad I can help!
@@monicamangin5678 hello monica my name is Donato
@@monicamangin5678 You really did! 🙏 And 3 years later I'm still watching you and enjoying the new Weekender series, we love you Monica! 💕
Yes yes yes! Just what we need in quarantine! More Monica 😍😍😍
This is a breath of fresh air. Thank you Monica! 😊
Also glad you're back Monica. The rainbow wall is so grown up and fun love the colors and details you added. It turned out so cool
I TOTALLY binged watched all the series when I found you, should have paced myself. You give great tips and you've also given inspiration where there was no vision previously!!!! Thanks so much!!!
OMG! So glad you are back with your fabulous DYI's! But I do miss The Weekender series so much!! Pleas bring it back, have missed you so!
Thanks for watching!
YEAHHHHHHHHH ITS BACK!!!!!!!!!! SO EXCITED LOVE THIS SHOW
YASSS MONICA WE MISSED YOU!!
Yasss!
@@monicamangin5678 I live in SOUTH WALES UK and love watching and learning from you, missed you.
We have small properties in the UK, I'm going make that small office in my box bedroom and I can't wait to start thank you.
@@monicamangin5678 goodmorning my name is Donato
Turning a dining room or living room into an organized play space for kids! Especially needed for us parents during lockdown, lol!
Good idea!
YES!!! Monica is back! I love the backdrop and how you came up with such a functional space. Who would have thought? oh yeah - you! :)
I can´t explain how much I enjoy this vids!!! thanks Monica
Yayyyy I’m so Happy Monica is back!!!!!
I miss you Monica and your renovation episodes.
Welcome back!!! Yes! Working from home.....we’re renters in a small house, have a small bedroom w/a king size bed in it, lol, have had to add a table/workspace, I’m an art student, so there are no empty surfaces :( I just need to declutter!!! Beautiful home office space!!!
Wow! love it! Great job, and so very timely for whats happening right now. Blessed to work from home but, as you said the struggle is real and the stress of it all can be a bit overwhelming. Thanks for the inspiration.
Fortunately, I have a dedicated office in my home, but I do like the idea of that backdrop. Very cool.
Love Monica’s creativity with her projects. I’ve missed her here on the Lowe’s Channel.
Much appreciated!
Monica, I love how you make everything you do so easy!Can't wait for ore episodes, love it!
Love this idea for a home office. I'm going to do this in my bedroom for a home office for me and my husband. Thank you for the great idea.
You're welcome!
That’s what im looking for. Monica thank you so much 😊
Great idea on a simple wall back drop!
Ya Monica I love your style... your friendliness comes out in your style and made me feel like I can be a do it myself with out the mister to control it HAha ps I want to see your back drop it the concept seems wonderful. The texture of macrame sounds like it would be beautiful
I love the living room home office, like the way it came together
Woohoo! Monica is back!!!!!
I would love to see a video transforming an unused dining room. Such a waste of a room that can be so much more of something else. Please post something!!
Marilyn Olavarria Like a home office? Lol
Leslie Ammons No something more interesting and inviting. It’s close to the kitchen where everyone gravitates too so an extension of that feel/vibe. And no not a bigger kitchen lol
While our kid is small we converted ours to a playroom/lounge with lots of cozy seating. At night when the toys are put away it's a more grownup hangout space where we can have drinks and play board games.
Such a great idea! Love all the fun details; the rainbow wall, the yarn backdrop. Love the functionality of it too with the ease of making it a stand up desk!
I am so glad we have more to watch. I love this show. Thank you Lowes
Always love your creativity. Glad you’re back!
You've given me so many ideas.... my husband and I have been working from home for 20 years, last month, I moved my home office from the basement area to the main floor. I found it challenging to do my pen designs and admin work in the same space. I have a beautiful steel corner desk that has a shelf for my 2 monitors and undershelf LED lighting that also stores my closed laptop. An old steamer trunk that holds my photography props and then 4 cube bookshelf. It's a mish mash, I can't really go out and buy anything new due to the pandemic and when it's over, the first thing I'm going to make is the PVC pipe backdrop. I'm already doing this for my photography, when I saw you make one, I had a "duh I could have had a v8 moment". Thank you for your ideas!
I’m so happy that you’re back Monica!
Thanks! More new episodes coming!
This is SO timely--I was literally just this morning searching for the right sized cork board for my home office and never thought to just DIY it! Thank you!!! Can't wait for more episodes!!
Perfect! More coming soon!
Love that back drop. That is so different.
Your great!And I love seeing your redos of rooms👍 I read all of the comments and there are just some that have to post some comments that are I call” distasteful “ but that’s what my Mom calls just Plain nasty and ugly!!!! Your great and have amazing ideas!!!! So let the distasteful, nasty and ugly be ignored!!!!!! Glad your back!! And keep on keeping us that want too be creative inspired! Thank you
Yay Monica is back!!! Finally
Yes, finally you are back! This makes my day
What a great idea as a movable backdrop for zoom conferences.
So excited to watch! I love making space for the spaces needed to be productive and thrive!
I love the yarn wall divider! It's so cute and you get a private nook!
The closet track is great too.
I think i would try to make both the sitting and standing more accessible. Maybe a fold down bracket on the sitting?
yeah!!!!!! Monica is back!!!
Yey you’re back!
You are so awesome Monica! I love watching your videos and being inspired to work on my own spaces! I miss the Weekender series.
Monica’s back!! Missed your ideas and inspiration!
Aw thanks!
Yay!!! Monica is back!!
