You are such a hard worker! You have added an incredible amount of value to the house, and it must be so rewarding and wonderful to look at. Everything is so fresh and looks brand new. How don’t you have more subscribers?! I hope the KZread algorithm pushes you out more. I’ll comment on every video in hopes that helps. I learn so much from you. Assembling the trim before adding it to the post is genius. You’re a natural teacher as well as being so incredibly handy.

It looks great! I really like the idea of the rope to camouflage the chain. It definitely warms it up.

Thank you! My grandfather (who has since passed away) built that swing for me so it was extra special to give it some TLC.

You're just so crafty and hard working! Amazing work, you're adding so much value and kudos for even tackling all of this, it's not easy, it would be a handful even for a pro crew! 😊

Very pretty and inviting area. Since you sprayed your swing you can god back and put a good coat of paint for better coverage and do not have to worry about the hard to reach spaces. Also love what you did with rope

I just luv that you painted your house. I am getting ready to paint mine and it’s a little overwhelming. You go girl. I hear you always say we but I only see you working. My husband doesn’t want any part of my DIYing.

Thank you! I totally understand the overwhelming part. I totally felt that way too but every single time I drive up to my house, I am so happy I did it. You’re right- I think I always say “we” as in me + the viewers/subscribers. We’re in it together. 🤣🤣 My husband is the same. He wants nothing to do with my projects but doesn’t care if I’m tearing up the house. I guess he’s confident I can put it back together! 😂😂

Thank you so much for this video 👏. I’m actually in the process of updating my back porch also and your video really helped with decisions I just couldn’t make such as painting the posts and colors, love what you did👍.

Very much an inspiration Kelsey. Just perfect. I need to replace a lot of wood under the eaves, the roof on my patio. I don’t have the budget to have a contractor replace it. So Im going to try it myself. Where did you buy your wood that has the little holes under your eaves? I like them.

Awesome transformations! Did you use your pressure washer or a cleaning solution and hose sprayer to clean your back siding, patio ceiling and trim prior to painting? I am concerned I might damage something with a pressure washer so I'm considering an attachment for my hose. (My house is unpainted brick but the soffit, gables, etc need cleaning and at least touch-up paint.)

I pressure washed everything really well especially since I knew I would be painting everything. No cleaning solution- just water.
