You have an incredible talent in being able to reimagine furniture, walls, decor, and being able to upscale them! Being able to renew and reuse old furniture to save them from the landfill is amazing. Just curious, do you ever patch real or faux leather pieces? Like over time from wear and tear they tend to peel or scratch off. I would love to see how you'd repair them to look like new!

Thank you so much!! I don’t have extensive experience with leather furniture because I prefer faux for the vegan aspects but I’m sure I’ll be patching some of my faux leather pieces in the future with Piper living in the house, I’ll make sure to post when I do :)

​@emilyrayna Not wishing you furniture damage from Piper but looking forward to future repair videos! 😊 I've got 2 cats so I definitely have some furniture that could use a refresh haha

I love how your taste in the first reno was proven by how much they took with them. you’re so talented!

Love how lou just chilled in the room as you walked around Just like a casual "Hey, sup"

Haven't gotten past 1 minute yet but I immediately needed to comment how much I love your sweater!

Alright I'm back now that I finished the video! I love everything you've done so far and I'm always so impressed with how creative you are!! Your DIYs always seem so doable and it's nice to know that really fun awesome looking projects are possible without an enormous woodworking shop or thousands of dollars. I really enjoy watching you explain your thought process behind everything. Keep up the great work!

Thank you so so much! This made my day ❤

Love the darker yellow. Also, love your hair!

Inventive designs. Luving it. Especially the guitar picks table! And those can net pulls. I hope they're linked ... Looking forward to seeing it all come together.

This is a real trust the process situation for me, so far everything is so out of my personal style that I can't picture what it'll look like when it's done. But I'm sure your parents will love it in the end 🧡

Thank you so much ❤

I remember the other reno you did for your parents, it turned out great and I know this one will too. You're making great progress 😊

Awesome idea with the tables!!❤❤❤

I just finished watching part 2 (even though I saw shorts of the table projects you were working on). I was confused when your Dad said, "they had other rooms" because I knew you already renovated other parts of the home. Now it makes sense! It's incredible how much value you were able to put into the old home with such a tight budget (and no renovation)! That is incredible!!!! Testament to your work and it is so beautiful watching you grow and be more creative with your designs!

So fun! I love the wall/ceiling paint choices!

Thanks Emily for the update. Wow! It is excellent and painted the chairs and the ottoman. Awesome! The wallpaper looks awesome. Can't wait to see the end results❤

can't wait to see the finished reno! keep up the great work!!

I can't believe how nice the furniture paint works! Very inspirational, I'm going to try with my leather sofa!

first! how exciting to get a review!

I cannot wait to see the finish

Loving it 💜

I loved this video but I heard a lot of my dad like… and he’d love … for Both tables in this space I hope we get some things for your moms taste and what she likes too. But everything is stunning 🤩

Amazing DIYS n lovely what u r doing for ur parents. ❤

Love the sweater!! ❤

I love your thread up pieces! The green turtleneck look stunning on you!!

Would love to see the next development .

I love your style. !!!

It is looking really nice

Love it

I saw your quote in the NYT article about the “sad beige” apartment and I KNEW when I saw that tiktok you wouldn’t like it. This is much more *you*, even if the space isn’t for you!

The chairs and that glass table was a crime 😭 girl nooooooo

Looking good

Good to see your video.. nice speaking style.. Are you from America?

This looks amazing! I want to thrift a leather chair and paint it a fun colour. Is there a way to calculate how much paint you need?

@emilyrayna

It really depends on the starting color of your piece! I’ve had furniture pieces where I got away with barely 2 coats but these chairs were a different story because they’re dark! I would start with one of the 4oz paints for a standard furniture piece and leave time to order more as needed :)

​@@emilyrayna :0 You replied to me! Thank you, I love your videos 💕 I bet the colour you're painting with also makes a difference, in my experience yellow paints are usually the least opaque, so it makes sense that you needed lots of coats! I was actually hoping for more of an estimate of how much paint will cover a certain area, and that way I could measure the chair to figure out what I'd need for one coat, then multiply that by however many coats I'd estimate would be needed. You see, I assume shipping to Norway won't be fast or cheap, so I'd rather not have to order twice 😅 But I don't blame you if you haven't kept track of exactly how much you've used. Maybe I should just order more than enough to be sure, and if I end up with some left over I can always use it for smaller projects 😊

Which state are you living ?

Part 2?

Where is the 2nd part to this video.

You’ll be known as Ms. Frizz from today on 🚌

Very disappointed I couldn't find the link to see the final project review 😢

I don’t like a single one of these projects 😀 but doesn’t matter as long as you do

The wall color wasn't bad but that texture is awful. Been stuck with that nasty stuff my whole life.
