Your home looks like such a joyful place. You’ve really created a beautiful space that balances serene and playful. I’m 40 and wanna be like you when I grow up haha Thanks for sharing your lovely space with us!
I’m just wondering what kind of friendship level you’re on with the hardware store staff? Like first name basis, know a little about their lives, pets names…?

When Ariel talked about having "another skill unlocked" because she used the nail gun, it reminded me of a sim. And as someone who has been following Ariel's progress on her house weekly via her podcast, it truly feels in a way like she is a sim leveling up from skill to skill lmao
so amazing - absolutely love the wainscotting!! i would say no more artworks in the bottoms squares, but maybe some sort of thin long wooden bench that you can put cute knick knacks and plants on! can't wait for more home reno videos :)
Yes, a long side-table would fit in perfectly! Would add to the regency vibe of the original Emma 2020 inspiration too, they have those a lot in stately homes
Oohh I was just going to comment something long and not additionally frames would be cool, but I couldn't conceptualize it. Even if not a bench like a tiny floating shelf for knick knacks. For some reason in my head I wanted to just pop a bunch of really cute, colorful or sculptural drawer pulls on the wall? Just like, decorative sticking out sculpture bits? But that also seems silly.
I loved the scene of you sitting in the garden with your kombucha about to plan out the frames. It was like something from a coming of age film. Really peaceful but also funny
Absolutely stunning (not that I expected anything else)! I'd hold off from putting up art in the lower boxes - it might not be convenient when you or your pets are waking past it and also, it might take away from how spectacular the two upper boxes look now. So just spend some time with how it is now and see if you still want to try adding more in the future! Can't wait for the next vid! 🤍
It looks great! No more art at the bottom - but if you have three or four little pieces they could be arranged vertically at the left of the doorway opening.
Keep the art on the top....it may be too busy if you cover everything...your home is coming along quite well...I've just subscribed after a year of checking your feed...a great adventure
At first...I said "No way" to expanding the gallery to the floor...but then I laughed and thought of your kitty cat pausing to admire the art at his (her?) eye level. Go For It!
I used to watch This Old House with my dad when I was a kid and for some reason this series brings a feeling of nostalgia that reminds me of that. Except, obviously, you use way brighter and happier colors than they did on that show! I love watching you do all these projects and see the joy it brings you when it's complete. It makes me want to take down the terrible, old, crumbling wallpaper in my room, patch the plaster up (because I know that's most likely cracking underneath the paper), and paint it! I cant wait to see each part of your journey with your house, especially the spooky room!
Right?!? I think it’s her vocal tone. She has such a calm voice just like he did. Made staining a deck a lot nicer to do if you had instructions from This Old House and their lovely music too!!
Wonderful job on the wall, it looks beautiful, lovely prints. Opinion - art on the bottom sections - I say No at this time. If you're making galleries on the other upper wall sections, it may be a bit much. Finish the rest rest of the room first, then decide.
It's super empowering watching you learn as you go and begin to tackle more and more elaborate projects within your home. It's looking absolutely stunning. I'm blown away by you!
You're simply amazing, Ariel. This is beyond fabulous! PS. I vote NO to adding frames to the bottom. I feel that the blank wall above & below brings focus to the interest in the middle.
100% SO important to consider the pieces as one large work! The spaces between the works is key to consider, but remember that this is also it's own work and we need to think about the relationship between the artworks in terms of their meaning, and their spacial connections!
I'd love to be a fly on that wall when someone comes in who doesn't realize the tiny room in that frame is real, and they're like, wait what?! The whimsy is tantalizing! 🤗😊💕
I love every video ariel does but I'm very excited for when the kitchen renovation video drops, this is the moment I'm waiting for (ps: some footnote art would be awesome)
I love these ‘smaller’ updates - makes taking on such a big project seem much more doable! It’s the odd jobs, the small steps over a weekend that add up to such a beautiful room. Now I want to add wainscotting all over my house! It’s been said by others but a thin side-table underneath the gallery wall would be a great place to display other nicknacks like those bowls you picked up. (Might even be able to store the other mini furniture in it if you found one with a drawer?)
Well, count me tantalized. I’d love to see another video set in this room. It’s so great to see not only the tiny projects and the big transformations, but how the rooms are being used and being shuffled around in the interim. That has been the best part of this house journey you’ve been showing us for me. I have a sinking suspicion that were I to take on this task, I would just have boxes of my unpacked belongings everywhere as I ate out of grocery bags every day until I could get things done. But even if a room is going to eventually have a different purpose you seem fine putting in effort and time to make things nice ´just for now’. This has spurred me to do a few things in my own abode that have been little bits of joy in my days where I had always balked at the idea of doing something nice when there was something else bigger that needed doing. Thank you.
you're making such a beautiful and comfy place to live in! every project adds its own personality to the space while still having the cohesion of being utterly and joyfully you
I LOVE IT I AM OBSESSED WITH THAT GALLERY WALL. I love how all your finished room/corners look so intentional! It is so lovely to see a home that has such love and care put into it.
I love that you pointed out the beautiful view from the pink/yellow room to the purple/green - that took my breath away!! Thank you so much for continuing to share your journey with this house, it’s so inspiring!
I love your creative soul!! I love Thrift finds!!! I have what I now call my "Wall of Fancy"... (I got the name Thanks to Farmhouse Vernacular) ...I have Family pictures, Works of Art from my Children and Grandchildren and things I adore!
huge fan of your cat waddling in, and out, of the room. edit: amazing video as always, well done on the beautiful wall! I personally like leaving the lower portion of the wainscotting clear, the way it is now, as it leaves a nice place for the eyes to rest.
I'd say instead of adding more art on the bottom wainscoting you should just put a little bench or console table? More art might make it busy, but also kinda harder to view bc it's so low? No matter what you choose though it'll be beautiful and we'll love it 😍
I completely relate to successful "errand days" vs. unsuccessful "errand days". I'm not sure there's anything less consequential that can affect my mood in such a big way 😆. SO enjoying coming along on this amazing renovation ride with you!
That was a fantastic outcome. Congratulations. For the two lower panels, my inclination would be for them to contain either two panoramas of a lake, or two panoramas of the leaves on a forest floor.
I am just in love with what you’ve been doing with your home!! It is SO different from my taste, but I am still obsessed. It’s like seeing your soul/personality/spirit in home-form. I vote “no” on adding frames to the bottom. It wouldn’t get viewed being down there, especially if you’re adding a table and chairs. Thanks for showing us all this home reno!
Eep, that is just STUNNING! 😍 Our plan for our hallway is 100% ‘fancy gallery wall’ and this was reallyyy inspirational. I just adore the fact that you’ve collected so many cute pieces over the years, makes it so much more special! 🥹
It looks AMAZING, and this is seriously encouraging me to get my gallery wall up finally. I do agree with A.D.'s comment that if you shifted the bigger oval frame higher and added another small frame under it, it would feel a bit more complete
Is just gorgeous! And no, no art under this two amazing panels. The eyes would be drown all over the place, shadowing what is happening up on the wall.Plus all the hair from pets will stick to the glass and frames. I hope we will see soon the rest of this room, will be amazing, like always. ♥♥♥
When that final shot of the finished wall went up my jaw literally dropped and I can't remember the last time I've physically had that reaction. You are such an artist hard worker
One of my favorite renovation series on RUclips, I love seeing your colorful house slowly come together. Also this is the yellow I plan to paint my kitchen floor.
I agree with the others on leaving the other panels clear 😁 Always love your ideas and creativity. I always get super happy when I see that you've posted. Can't wait for your next video to see how your living room turns out! Ps. All though I'm sure you're in desperate need of a break and I can't wait to see all the finished product as a whole I'm gonna be so sad when it's all done and there's no more fun house videos.
I love the shot looking through the dining room window at you taking trim our of the car and then it pans around to you in the dining room! So cool! It reminded me of some scenes from Pride & Prejudice (2005). And the soothing music! Your videos are starting to become more and more like the films you love so much!!!
I love that you are loving every space you work on. It’s a bit young and modern for me a times (middle aged n boring), but, this is YOUR home. And I love to see you love what you’ve done. And I do like most of it …. xxx
i did shed a tear at this video!! your dedication to beauty and making your home so singularly yours is so moving to me. thank you for sharing the journey :’))
I think the gallery wall looks amazing! I wouldn’t add more art to the bottom. I don’t think it would look bad if you did but I just love how it looks now. What an amazing job! You are inspiring.
I too have a gallery wall full of all the art I’ve collected over my lifetime! It’s in my bedroom and it’s honestly such a joy waking up to every morning and looking at (my bed is strategically facing it hahaha) I’ll just stare at it forever and get inspiration for my own art. Loved to see yours come together, especially with the wainscoting!
I think wait and see about art in the lower panels - it could look cool, I agree, but it might be a little crowded to walk past, or someone could bump into it getting into/out of their chair, etc. So...maybe!! That lil living room is something else
This series has been such an inspiration for me as my partner and I have just purchased our first home and it’s so overwhelming!! Your gentle slow approach to your home is my biggest inspiration!
The moulding looks like it's always been there, it suits the room so well. I like the art enclosed in the squares. I'm an artist and love collecting art, it's definitely special to have art up that you really love instead of the same old stuff anyone can buy. Looking forward to seeing more of the room 😊
That wainscotting looks SO GOOD. Love the proportions you chose. It is so pretty. 😍 And that gallery wall is effing gorgeous. Serious house inspiration for my own renovations.
I feel like I'm vicariously living through you. Knowing myself, I don't think I'd want to go to the extremes (in the best way) that you're doing to your house. For me, watching you work on your old house is helping me be motivated to figure out what to do with my house. Originally I was going to do whatever was cheapest, but now I'm taking my time to think about what I actually want and researching how to do it and the cost.
The amount of work in this!!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻and the result couldn't be more beautiful Ariel, you have a great eye,and hand, for decoration❤️❤️can't wait to see the full dinning room!!
Absolutely beautiful as always. Some tips for anyone else looking to do mounding like this - you can usually use painters tape to hold pieces up if you don’t have an extra set of hands. If you don’t want to use a saw, miter shears are cheap and your best friend!
Such a beautiful gallery wall you’ve created, I love that mini living room 😂 I discovered your channel yesterday and have been watching non stop since…it makes me happy 👍🏻 oh and I love the choice of music you play in the background too 😊
Love the yellow walls!!! I have always enjoyed yellow in a kitchen... but didn't think of it for another room. I will so be checking out yellows for the house we buy. People who visit your home are going to have many a "WOW!" moment when they realize that the mini livingroom is real. Fabulous job!!!!
I love all your videos and the way you are renovating and redecorating your home. And this gallery wall is just chef's kiss!!!! I'm so glad I found your channel. xx
Can I say that you have most whimsical, beautiful and hopeful music? It just feels so perfect for your videos Ariel. Also, I feel like I never thought about wall detailing until I watched your videos. Now I want board and batten and wainscotting everywhere!
It looks a amazing and the wainscoting really makes the yellow wall more interesting by adding that texture and shapes. Even without the gallery wall it looked really pretty so the rest of the room will look gorgeous. Keep it up Ariel! I love that you are just doing what you want to your house rather than what’s in style and resell-able, your personality shines through and you really breathed life back into this house, im sure it’s glad to feel the love from you!
This truly is my comfort series on RUclips! Your artistic eye for color and aesthetic is such an inspiration and you just seem so sweet. I love your home and hope to live in one even a fraction as beautiful one day!
Damn, that looks good. You did a great job with the wainscoting. The gallery wall is spot on as well. I had forgotten that the room had all that horrible paneling. Your home is looking wonderful, you should be proud of all the hard work that you have put into it.
ohhhh yeah, I got all of my friends a piece of art for Christmas last year, and framed them all (bc I hate giving gifts that come with fun bonus errands), mats included, and yeah I absolutely learned never to buy new frames because *every single thrift store* has them, and they have so much more personality than most accessible ~new~ frames
It is so inspiring and exciting to see someone making their house so colourful and gorgeous and in your own style, and also doing so much of of actual work yourself and learning as you go! I would never have thought I could do all of these things before, but owning a house is a dream of mine too and you've so inspired me to make it as colourful and beautiful as I want! This whole series is a gift, thank you.
You make me dream of the day I'll have my own home to decorate! Somehow the home does feel like you, honestly, in this time of minimalism and "set in stone" styles that everyone copies your home decor and feel are refreshing ❤ Keep going strong 🦾🦾🦾
Just wanna say you’re doing an amazing job! I can tell your space makes you happy and it translates to wonderfully through the video. Love this series 🫶🏼
i love the style of your videos so much, aesthetically they're so soft and warm and they make me feel me feel cosy. Your house is so beautiful and its so delightful seeing the transformations that you make and how meaningful they are to you. I also really love it when you film outside, your backyard and the nature behind it is so lush and calming. If you ever wanted to do another video like the bird house one of you saying nothing but just being outside I would support it 100%. I would love like a three hour one that I could just study to over and over again but I appreciate that that would probably be too long haha. Hope you and your family are enjoying a beautiful summer in your lovely home!
I'm obsessed with this wall. also obsessed with the little Wes Anderson like transition where you were outside then the camera turned and you walked into the room. I rewatched that little bit three times!
Your home looks like such a joyful place. You’ve really created a beautiful space that balances serene and playful. I’m 40 and wanna be like you when I grow up haha Thanks for sharing your lovely space with us!
Hi Elisa!
I`m 57 and your comment could have been written by me :)))
37 here and I ‘third’ this comment 😂
I love that the miniature living room is now hiding amongst the 2D art. It’ll be that much more special when someone discovers it!
I knew a man years ago that collected antiques and he would hang empty frames because he said they were pretty enough on their own.
lol, this made my day knowing that I am not the only weirdo who does this haha!
I’m just wondering what kind of friendship level you’re on with the hardware store staff? Like first name basis, know a little about their lives, pets names…?
Why would she ask them something like that?
It’s called being friendly, you should try it sometime

Every time you post my heart skips a beat! I love this series inexplicably
🥲 thank you so much
Me too! It's a beautiful, colorful dream home that most of us won't ever have, but we can enjoy Ariel's with her! (Can't WAIT for the kitchen ❤❤)
When Ariel talked about having "another skill unlocked" because she used the nail gun, it reminded me of a sim. And as someone who has been following Ariel's progress on her house weekly via her podcast, it truly feels in a way like she is a sim leveling up from skill to skill lmao
I love this because I sort of think of it like that too haha right now my rest is empty 😴😴😴😂
Wait she has a podcast?! How have I completely missed this?! O.O
@@silverkyre yes, it is books unbound on spotify
the mini living room looks SO good with the rest of the frames! that was such a good idea!!
I’m obsessed with how it blends in now 🙈
so amazing - absolutely love the wainscotting!! i would say no more artworks in the bottoms squares, but maybe some sort of thin long wooden bench that you can put cute knick knacks and plants on! can't wait for more home reno videos :)
A bench is such a good idea! Would make it into a proper mini gallery corner
Yes, a long side-table would fit in perfectly! Would add to the regency vibe of the original Emma 2020 inspiration too, they have those a lot in stately homes
Oohh I was just going to comment something long and not additionally frames would be cool, but I couldn't conceptualize it.
Even if not a bench like a tiny floating shelf for knick knacks. For some reason in my head I wanted to just pop a bunch of really cute, colorful or sculptural drawer pulls on the wall? Just like, decorative sticking out sculpture bits? But that also seems silly.
i agree
A deep green velvet covered long bench you can sit on can also be pretty!
I loved the scene of you sitting in the garden with your kombucha about to plan out the frames. It was like something from a coming of age film. Really peaceful but also funny
Absolutely stunning (not that I expected anything else)! I'd hold off from putting up art in the lower boxes - it might not be convenient when you or your pets are waking past it and also, it might take away from how spectacular the two upper boxes look now.
So just spend some time with how it is now and see if you still want to try adding more in the future! Can't wait for the next vid! 🤍
Yes! And I think they won’t look as empty once there’s other furniture in the room
Agreed, and you could put a small buffet table there since it's a dining room
It looks great! No more art at the bottom - but if you have three or four little pieces they could be arranged vertically at the left of the doorway opening.
Keep the art on the top....it may be too busy if you cover everything...your home is coming along quite well...I've just subscribed after a year of checking your feed...a great adventure
At first...I said "No way" to expanding the gallery to the floor...but then I laughed and thought of your kitty cat pausing to admire the art at his (her?) eye level. Go For It!
Great gallery wall, I’m a no for art on the bottom. The eye needs space to rest too! Looking forward to seeing the whole room.
Wow, I forgot what it looked like before. Such a magical transformation!
Isn’t it crazy? 😳
When you cut to saying ‘things have gone well for me’, I got a HUGE SMILE. Your joy is so wonderful! Thank you for sharing your journey.
Ariel, thank you for existing and being you. You’re a blessing.
Hear, hear!
I used to watch This Old House with my dad when I was a kid and for some reason this series brings a feeling of nostalgia that reminds me of that.

Right?!? I think it’s her vocal tone. She has such a calm voice just like he did. Made staining a deck a lot nicer to do if you had instructions from This Old House and their lovely music too!!
What a treat for a gloomy Saturday afternoon! Happy to see you, Ariel!
Wonderful job on the wall, it looks beautiful, lovely prints.

I like it empty on the bottom!! Looks so so fancy and beautiful Ariel! You knocked it out of the park ☺️
You are so blessed to have a dad who wants to help.
The miniature living room in your wall is the coolest thing ever!! 🤩
Your house is turning into a home! So beautiful! I think no to adding more pictures to the bottom of the wall personally.
I think this is the exact amount of frames for that wall. 🥰
SHUT UP this is so magical!!!! I cannot get over the feeling/vibes that this room now has! I would vote to leave the bottom panels clear :)
You're simply amazing, Ariel. This is beyond fabulous! PS. I vote NO to adding frames to the bottom. I feel that the blank wall above & below brings focus to the interest in the middle.

'stop working and start napping.' ah mood. had such a smile on my face as you were putting the art into the frames and gahhh it came out so cool.
I think you nailed it! I mean them.

Absolutely beautiful as always. Some tips for anyone else looking to do mounding like this - you can usually use painters tape to hold pieces up if you don’t have an extra set of hands. If you don’t want to use a saw, miter shears are cheap and your best friend!
These renovation transformation videos of yours fill me with so much joy, it’s unbelievable!
Amazing project! The trim thing looks amazing
Such a beautiful gallery wall you’ve created, I love that mini living room 😂 I discovered your channel yesterday and have been watching non stop since…it makes me happy 👍🏻 oh and I love the choice of music you play in the background too 😊
I'm so excited I got a Christine Mconnell and an Ariel Bissett video on the same day. What a blissful day!
Love the yellow walls!!! I have always enjoyed yellow in a kitchen... but didn't think of it for another room. I will so be checking out yellows for the house we buy. People who visit your home are going to have many a "WOW!" moment when they realize that the mini livingroom is real. Fabulous job!!!!
I love all your videos and the way you are renovating and redecorating your home. And this gallery wall is just chef's kiss!!!! I'm so glad I found your channel. xx
Can I say that you have most whimsical, beautiful and hopeful music? It just feels so perfect for your videos Ariel. Also, I feel like I never thought about wall detailing until I watched your videos. Now I want board and batten and wainscotting everywhere!
Oh my goodness!!!!! You never fall to amaze!!!!! Absolutely gorgeous!!!!
It looks a amazing and the wainscoting really makes the yellow wall more interesting by adding that texture and shapes. Even without the gallery wall it looked really pretty so the rest of the room will look gorgeous. Keep it up Ariel! I love that you are just doing what you want to your house rather than what’s in style and resell-able, your personality shines through and you really breathed life back into this house, im sure it’s glad to feel the love from you!
This truly is my comfort series on RUclips! Your artistic eye for color and aesthetic is such an inspiration and you just seem so sweet. I love your home and hope to live in one even a fraction as beautiful one day!
Damn, that looks good. You did a great job with the wainscoting. The gallery wall is spot on as well. I had forgotten that the room had all that horrible paneling. Your home is looking wonderful, you should be proud of all the hard work that you have put into it.
ohhhh yeah, I got all of my friends a piece of art for Christmas last year, and framed them all (bc I hate giving gifts that come with fun bonus errands), mats included, and yeah I absolutely learned never to buy new frames because *every single thrift store* has them, and they have so much more personality than most accessible ~new~ frames
The reveal genuinely took my breath away and brought tears to my eyes. I love everything about this series. Thank you so much for sharing.
Beautiful!! I’m always impressed w your vision and its application. Leave the art wall wall alone now. It’s perfect.
It is so inspiring and exciting to see someone making their house so colourful and gorgeous and in your own style, and also doing so much of of actual work yourself and learning as you go! I would never have thought I could do all of these things before, but owning a house is a dream of mine too and you've so inspired me to make it as colourful and beautiful as I want! This whole series is a gift, thank you.
Ariel, you are amazing. Your enthusiasm is contagious :)
Slowly but surely you are getting there. WELL DONE!
Cute kitty!! And your dress is beautiful!
You make me dream of the day I'll have my own home to decorate! Somehow the home does feel like you, honestly, in this time of minimalism and "set in stone" styles that everyone copies your home decor and feel are refreshing ❤ Keep going strong 🦾🦾🦾
Just wanna say you’re doing an amazing job! I can tell your space makes you happy and it translates to wonderfully through the video. Love this series 🫶🏼
That came out quite lovely.
This is so lovelyyyy it looks great! (I wouldn’t put art in the bottom portions)
i love the style of your videos so much, aesthetically they're so soft and warm and they make me feel me feel cosy. Your house is so beautiful and its so delightful seeing the transformations that you make and how meaningful they are to you. I also really love it when you film outside, your backyard and the nature behind it is so lush and calming. If you ever wanted to do another video like the bird house one of you saying nothing but just being outside I would support it 100%. I would love like a three hour one that I could just study to over and over again but I appreciate that that would probably be too long haha. Hope you and your family are enjoying a beautiful summer in your lovely home!
I'm obsessed with this wall. also obsessed with the little Wes Anderson like transition where you were outside then the camera turned and you walked into the room. I rewatched that little bit three times!
All your videos make me so happy!! I love seeing the house become so colourful and beautiful every video. The gallery wall looks great👏
eres una mujer increíble, me has inspirado por años.
