    As I always say, makeover do not have to be so expensive, invasive or drastic. While I do want to reno and demo to make all Holly's kitchen dreams come true; she wants to do some big changes that are going to require a lot more time and a larger budget. Since I am unable to do that, I wanted to see what I could do for less than $200. Remember that it isn't my way or the highway and to tailor your space to your needs and lifestyle as I did here for Holly and her home.

    It's crazy how much easier makeovers are when you tackle them in phases - this is the third and final part of Holly's kitchen makeover series. I love how each episode varies in difficulty which I feel like makes this obtainable for anyone. I can't believe we are done with all the rooms in the house? What in the world? How did that happen?

Painting cabinets and refacing the old cheap cabinet door fronts by adding beadboard. I wanted to try and turn them to shaker but that was no go. Either I've put off painting my cabinets FOREVER!!

The fact that you are so open about just trying things, making mistakes, going back, and fixing them makes doing my own projects seem WAY less intimidating. It's helping me learn that even if I do make a mistake, that's how you learn! So thank you from the bottom of my heart. YOU ARE AMAZING. Please keep doing what you're doing because it's so refreshing and wonderful. You're an inspiring badass.

      There are never "reactions" since she lives here. I also like to keep some of my life private! I have one video of how we do that in part one of the fireplace makeover. We really don't talk much about the process since I use her Pinterest board for reference. When I slow down the amount of videos I put out each month next year, I will for sure incorporate things like this.

  • @StreetWiseMomSurviving
    @StreetWiseMomSurviving 3 года назад

    Don’t sweat over the small stuff girl. 😊. It looks awesome. And I have found on light fixtures, which are a HUGE expense, that often times just taking old ones down, can light covers included, taking a can of metallic spray paint to them gives them the freshest and most updated and cheapest make over ever. I even did a price compare on new stuff I tended to gravitate towards, which was interestingly very similar to what I had, to just $7 can of spray paint and it was no question what direction I needed to go. New isn’t always better.. Even my ‘boob’ lights look like a classic 40’s throw back with some rubbed bronze over the tacky old brass. Those shelves look so clean and great! Love it!

    I didn't realize anyone complained in the last video I was reading through all the tips and learned quite a bit. I sand and repaint dressers and somehow missed the memo on your not supposed to let the varnish stripper dry on the drawer face, oops 🤦‍♀️ but glad I learned it!

    Your work is very inspiring! Thank you for continuing to create content that shows the good, the bad, and the awkward. We all do awkward things when we are learning but we don't have an audience. And we all approach things differently. So for real.
    Thank you for being humble in your honesty and your approach to all your projects. I hope I can speak for others when I say I'm very sorry that your willingness to be so transparent is not as well reciprocated. People on the internet are cruel it really sucks you have to defend every choice you make each step of the way. It takes a strong person to be able to cary everyone's opinions on their back. Please don't let it get you down. Keep being your honest self. And keep rocking out your amazing ideas! ❣️

    I cant believe what a difference that small shelf sitting right above the backsplash makes in finishing it off-what a good idea. Everything looks great!

    I watch a lot of DIY videos I mean, a LOT (I think I have a problem, lol) but I have to say I really enjoy yours. You have a very down to earth approach to what you do, the videos don't LOOK cheap and you're very honest about mistakes you make (even filming them) so we can see it all takes a lot of work but isn't always "so easy". I even like the music you use, lol! I can't remember how many of yours I've watched BUT this one made me a subscriber - thanks for sharing!

    I really don't mind when you "cut corners", it's the reality of a DIY but i do love that you encourage people not to cut corners as well as yourself. It's awesome making yourself proud of the final result.
    Thanks for the BAIB info plug.
    Lovely video as always 💚💗😊

    Wow, that does look fantastic. You really took it from outdated to stylish and modern without breaking the bank.
    Although I'm not a fan of open shelving for practical reasons, myself. I did that, when I built my first kitchen and while it looked fantastic, the stuff up there gets dusty/greasy so quickly, it's just not worth it for me. It's a completely personal decision, obviously, but I would hate for other people to copy this style, without being aware of the drawbacks. It really sucked, to have to take it all down again, to install closed cabinets after all.
    It sucked even more, to go through all that trouble, just to move out shortly afterwards, but that's a whole different story. I'm sure, you can symphasize ;-))

    I love texture spray! We moved into a house with wood paneling throughout half of it, and then a quarter of what was left was textured walls. We had quite a few holes to patch and spray over with texture spray.

    WOW, Babe, it’s STUNNING! It’s incredible what a lick of paint and some hard work can do. You prove over and over that you don’t need to spend thousands of pounds to have a beautiful and stylish home. Can I just say, I’m genuinely surprised and disappointed with some disgust that *some* people take it upon themselves to criticise you and your work. FFS, you’re always honest and up front and say that you’re learning too. It boils my piss that these folk think it’s okay to be so rude. Ignore those people, they don’t deserve you wasting your breath on them. I’m so PROUD of you! I Love You, Honey. You do you and what you love and to those that don’t like it.... 🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻
