Chatty Little Update | Removing the Master Closet + Paint Colors & Other Current Projects

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Happy New Year everyone! I've been a little more quiet between here and instagram (and I explain why in this video,) but I wanted to come on and update you all on all of the little projects and ideas I have going for our 120 year old home we just moved into. Last week we removed the walls to the master bedroom closet. I've also been choosing paint colors for the house and am going to show a couple real life swatches. Additionally, I've been stripping a ming style coffee table for our living room. So come hang out with me for a bit.

    My babies are 15 and 17- you are so right! It flys-cherish it- I’d much rather see wonderful quality content like yours every now and then and know you are being true to yourself than some of the daily contrived stuff out there. ❤️

    Your house is so beautiful and you have years to build it into your perfect home. The coffee table is such a unique shape and it will be worth every hour of work! I’m glad you’ve decided to enjoy these years with your kids and not worrying about doing all the things!! The time really does fly and you’ll never regret a moment you spent with them🥰

    The white that you picked for the walls is great, but too close to the current trim color. Since some of the doors are wood color, consider either stripping the trims to bring them back to the natural wood color, or paint them a shade of brown that matches the doors. Same thing for the baseboards, they are much more elegant when they match the floor, and in your case the floor is made of beautiful, natural hardwood.

    Love the colour you have chosen for your home, the coffee table looks beautiful, love the legs and can't wait to see the finished product. Your idea re your bed placement will look great. Agree with you re social media and I think Mum and your little ones first, making memories!! Lovely to see Myles and Isla. Best wishes Megan and I look forward to seeing you when you can.

    Oh my gosh I relate so much to what you were saying about not trying to keep up with the jones's with social media. It can feel like such a rat race trying to keep up with all of the new platforms and everything, it's just exhausting and I'd rather hang out with my kids than to all that 😅

    I'm putting my foot down. I can only do so much and I don't want to miss these kids being little! I know I'll regret it! We are in the same boat so I know you get it.

    I Love the new paint color you picked out for the house! It’s going to make a big difference I don’t know about you but I’m sick of all the gray! Everyone on UTube has the same colors the same furniture etc! That’s why I love your channel so much! Your home reflects your personality and your taste! I also agree with you about social media! In fact I tend to agree with you on almost everything!! Lol!👍💜💜💜💜

    That wall color is a nice white to brighten your rooms. Wondering if you have only the radiators for heat? I think I saw ductwork in the basement so I'm hoping you have central air. I'm not a lover of ceiling fans but I do turn mine on in winter. It helps bring the warm air back down towards the floor area. I love a fireplace for ambiance but they aren't really practical as most of the heat goes up the chimney.

    Most of our fireplaces are closed off, but we have two that I need to have looked at. I considered closing them off and having a gas insert installed. Seems like those work better than an actual fire. And yes, the radiators do work! And they put out decent heat! But we also have a separate hvac system in the house. It's funny how it's all set up to work together, but parts of the house have been updated and parts of it have been kept original. Same with the electrical.

    Everything is coming along nicely. I like the coffee table (glass in the center would be nice as well). I've seen them a few times while thrifting, but I used to thrift constantly:) I totally understand not being on every social platform. I'm pretty much just KZread and a little Pinterest now and then:) The crib looks awesome......you're doing a great job👍

    I recently seen a pretty color used by Christina of the Reclaimed Heirloom You Tube video Feb 14th 2022. I think it was Benjamin Moore...Owl Grey I think, worth a peek... Good luck.

    Please please be careful with those magnetic tiles some have been known to come apart and wee ones can get at the tiny magnets if they ingest them it can be quite harmful.
