    Ok, since I’m watching your videos 100% backwards, I never in a million years would have thought you renovated your kitchen yourself and so inexpensively...wow!😳. I’m super impressed and really proud of you, Megan!
    Taking the chest freezer out of the kitchen made all the difference in the world.
    I’ve been curious: what kind of laundry detergent comes in a pink bottle?

      I wouldn’t recommend it 🤷🏼‍♀️ it’s not really good safe. If the surface chips, it becomes a breeding ground for bacteria. And it really doesn’t hold up super great.

  • @bonniestephens208
    @bonniestephens208 10 месяцев назад

    You did a great job. Everything looks so pretty. I remember when we were on a very tight budget, it was Christmas, we went to the woods and cut a tree and I had been saving the tops of canned food. I painted and my husband made a hope in them so we put a string in them to hang on tree. We had been married for 1 year and lived in North Carolina, my husband was in the Marines. Next month we will have sixty second anniversary and live in Littlefield, TX. It is amazing what you can do with just a little money and an imagination. Thanks for sharing with us.❤️

    @gracelove190 4 года назад

    Tip that you can use on your laundry basket the little brown baskets you have on the shelf... you can buy some black ribbon (satin) 1 to 2 inches and just put bows on the handles of the basket or wrap entire handle with ribbon to match and then put a bow at the end and it will enhance the color coordination that you were going for. You did a great job!

    Everything came out beautiful, I love your house, it is just the right size, easier to clean! The countertops came out great, I think i may try that idea, I have the Formica wooden look from the 80s, it's in good shape but just not modern. The kitchen cabinets are also Formica, so I may try a different color for those. Who knows, still thinking about it. Thanks for the ideas!

    I think I would swap the coffee bar and the microwave to give you more counter space. Everything is so bright and airy, moving the microwave would takeout that black hole!

    • @lovinglifeasmegan
      @lovinglifeasmegan  4 года назад

      I wish I could move the microwave but there isn't a space for it anywhere :( the coffee station isn't deep enough to hold it

    • @albinaolivarez873
      @albinaolivarez873 4 года назад

      I agree with Cheri Paul, I would have preferred to have a microwave that mounted over the stove, to free up the counter space, and maybe if your budget allows in the future, you can find one that does on FB marketplace. I liked your DIY makeover on the kitchen table, but I would have preferred that round one you replaced, and have done a natural table top to that, only bc of the tight space.. again, I don’t know what your family size is.. this is my first time to see your blog.. overall, I loved your color scheme .. and let me know how the countertops hold up, I’m inspired to do the same to mine... thank you!! I will keep watching !!!

    Beautiful job. Big difference. A lot of people don’t realize that for a couple hundred bucks you can get totally new countertop at a home improvement store, and it won’t potentially peel. For sink position, just use old countertop as template. Super easy and to be honest, overall, faster and more durable.

      I painted our countertops when we first moved into our house using the Gianni countertop painting set (which, as the name suggests, is specifically meant for countertops and comes with primers/sealers) and they started scratching after about 2 years. By year 3, they were completely peeling up. We took good care of them and followed all instructions. Painting countertops will get you by for a while, but it IS temporary unless you use something like a countertop epoxy on top.

      BELLA I wish! If they had been granite, I’d have never painted over them. 😊 They were some type of laminate that we sanded slightly before applying the primer so that it would have the best chance at sticking. We’ve since ripped out that countertop and replaced it since the paint had peeled up so much and there was really no saving it.

    Is polycrylic food safe? Honestly, they look good but I don’t think it’ll last. Hope they do, but I doubt it. Home Depot sells specific countertop paint. Which would’ve been a lot easier and less steps and probably around the same price or cheaper
