Hi April 👋 I’m new to your channel and I’m watching all your old content and I just wanted to let you know I love it! ❤ Pats for Izzy 🥰

Amazing make over. I say that alot with your work I know 😉 However, you really managed to work so well with this space - which is so tiny - but so important. It makes such a difference to a house to have an actual entry way - not sure why I feel that but I keep getting the visualisation of a bedroom where you open the door and bang! There is the whole room without deferiations of any sort - which is fine for a bedroom, obviously. But, somehow this wonderful little cottage feels like it deserves better than that. I think what you've done in this little space fits the bill perfectly - and I yet again fall in love with another of Mamma Jackson's pieces. I would run you over for that exquisite little cupboard - and to see it standing out and making itself known rather than added to a pile and anonymous warms my soul. And obviously the most important feature is the basket for pupper's lead!

Lovely makeover! You know the dried plants/flowers and the twigs/branches? How often do you have to change those? I'm planning on a makeover for my room so it's more practical and uses space better.

I love it. She has a beautiful collection of furniture.

Looks great! Love how it fits in with the rest of the house, and uses the furniture that she already has and loves rather than going out any buying new. Question About wall texture…. I noticed in loads of American houses on KZread they often have the textured plaster on the walls….. is that normal in the US, is it fashionable there? Or was it fashionable before, but now is just the standard? You hardly ever see it here in the Uk, and it wouldn’t be something you would usually ask for….. generally people go for flat plastered walls. Just wondered 🤷🏻‍♀️.

@valonnia

IME textured walls can be found in older houses that used lathe and plaster. Maybe it was a design choice, maybe it was just easier to throw up texture than going for a smooth finish. It's obvious in my own house (1940s) which rooms were gutted and redone with sheetrock, and which have the original walls.

@@valonnia that’s interesting! My flat in London is about 115 years old so is a mix of brick, lath and plaster, and in areas that were obviously damaged at some point more modern plasterboard.

We’ll that’s kind of rude 💛 - we never claimed to be pros at installing this. It’s our first time and we’re doing our best. To omit the need to sand, we used a higher end primer specifally for that. …Pretty sure I showed filling in as well.

Why do so many KZreadrs seem to believe that viewers want to hear some random dude singing while watching people restore houses? The last thing I want to do while observing someone working on a renovation is simultaneously try to process song lyrics. I can't multitask like that. As soon as someone starts singing, I have to hit the mute button. I don't care what the song is "about", it's distracting. Music, especially music with vocals, is _highly_ polarizing under the best of circumstances, and frankly should be as unobtrusive as possible in a video where a wide audience is desired. I can't stand the strummy faux-folksy discount singer-songwriter drivel that is purveyed on KZread videos these days, but other people hate the music I like, that's just how music works. So, limit your audience if you want, but know you are doing that with your music choices.
