    your comment of "it doesn't matter what color the walls are, doesn't matter what furniture you have....what matters is what people you have inside your home" hit me hard as i sit here and try to envision how i wish to transform my space (got wallpaper). it's been 27 years of "living" and it's now time to change. you inspire me with all of your projects and i hope that i have as much energy to try to complete my dreams. luv ya....keep it up!

      Thank you! I feel like I still need some help on the DESIGN part, but I love executing! :) I'm so ready to do tile in the kitchen now!!!

    Beautiful family memories are priceless. That is the difference between a house and a home..

    • @ThriftDiving
      @ThriftDiving  5 лет назад

      Yesssss! I think when you live in a home and develop such memories here, the bond is strong! I look forward to coming home now, whereas I used to dislike my house a lot.

    I have been viewing RUclips for years, never came across your channel until today. I just recently purchased my 1st. home. Now that I've moved in I'm overwhelmed with things I would like to change. I really appreciate you posting this video. You are right a home is not the color on the wall or the right flooring. It's the memories you make with the love ones you have in it to share it with. Thank you you have filled my heart ❤ with hope. I'll take my time stop waking up with anxiety to finish this or that or panicking over I should have done that first and not this. Thank you.

    I absolutely adore the ending of this video, from when you say this blog is a sort of family diary (18.45) and even if you paint and change furniture, what really matters are the people who lives in there. Also thank you so much for sharing the cutest little helper while he was 3 y.o. 🤩

    @nikkiep23 5 лет назад +12

    Beautiful Serena! I love front door update and the rest of the room makeovers. I recently painted my upstairs bathroom vanities as a temp solution until I upgrade them. The bathrooms have made the biggest impact. The master bedroom looks so calming. The outdoor space is beautiful as well.

    • @ThriftDiving
      @ThriftDiving  5 лет назад +1

      That's a great idea, Nikkie. Paint makes a world of difference. If your vanity is in good condition you can get by with just a painted upgrade for a long time. Oooh--and I just did some other decorating and upgrades to the entry! I have a Ring doorbell video coming out this week where I did a review of it, along with painting the trim around the outside doors. Makes the black pop now! And I added some wreaths and lights. :) You'll see that soon! Thanks so much for watching.

      Thrift Diving: If you haven’t already seen the national news about the HACKING problem with the RING cameras, please view all of it! The co. Is trying to put the hacking incidents (very creepy, scaring children) on the shoulders of their parents, but I call B.S. on that! If I were you, I’d actually contact those mothers-not take RING’s word for it.
      Best Wishes to you and your beautiful family, over the Holidays and into the New Year!
      P.S.: Great Home Tour, though could’ve used a few more seconds to savor each “After” shot. Like I said before, you ARE an Artist/Creative Problem-Solver, generously sharing your Journey with us. Thankyou, Serena.

    Watching all of your work was fascinating. I started thinking g of my Mom....she was 5'1" and did many of the things you do. She was good with electricity but not plumbing.She painted,built furniture,knocked out walls and put in doorways.She would have loved your program..I enjoyed seeing your boys grow.

    I've been beating myself up about not finishing projects. I needed that last little pep talk at the end of this video.

    • @ThriftDiving
      @ThriftDiving  5 лет назад +2

      Yeeeeessss! We ALL need to hear that! Because at the end of the day, it really doesn't matter. As long as you're happy to come home to your home and the people that you love are there. :) The fun is in transforming it, but it doesn't have to be HGTV perfect. :)

    Wow. His teeth look great. What a difference paint and a little vision makes. I love that the kids learned new skill from Mom and Dad. My personal skills were taught by my great grand parents and grand parents. My grandfather was not a patient man but my grand mother was spot on. My dad thought it was a good punishment to tell me to organize the garage. Heck I enjoyed it.

My husband and I just purchased a 1960s house that hasn't been updated since it was built, and we are a bit overwhelmed as to how to make it our own. Now I have the confidence to make those small incremental changes and enjoy my family while I'm doing it.

      And there is still more to do! The kitchen flooring needs to be replaced. I am going to do ceramic tile most likely, unless it's too thick. Then I'll do another luxury vinyl like in the basement. I'm itching to do tile, though!

    Thanks! I needed this! I just purchased a home with the 80's wall paper and I decided I would do a few projects a year on my channel until I get it the way I want it. It's just too difficult and too costly to do it all at once. This video let me see that it does come together after a while. I just need your patience.
