I agree. This blew me away. I almost never subscribe to any channel or even like videos but I had to for this one. She knocked it out of the park. That room is so sophisticated and beautiful. The lamps were gorgeous in the original green and a perfect match. At some point it would be nice to see the curtains upgraded. Drop cloths could work well in that space. Even back when me and my husband were on a tight budget I would always spring for custom curtains. I would go to a local fabric store and ask for recommendations.

You are a fairy godmother. You walk into a drab room, and Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo, it's amazing!

The land lord should hire you, beautiful job!

Your re-use recycle ideas are always so inspirational and refreshing. Kudos also to Spencer and Madeline for sidestepping the “want it all new and now” mentality. Hopefully over time they will realize that most older furniture is far better made than today’s trendy fare. At 75, most of my wood furniture was my parents! As public school teachers, thriftiness was a necessity and hand-me-downs were welcomed!

I can't even describe the emotions that I feel when I want your video because there are so many. I have struggled for 40 years just to keep my home I am a single mother of four children always working at least two jobs and going to school in the evening while taking care of a child strickened with a disease and being a caregiver for my elderly parents. After an injury at work and COVID hitting they would not take me back I have struggled to find work because of my age needless to say I cannot put any money into my home so to speak but watching your videos gives me hope that I can make my home something that would be enjoyable to be in for myself and my son who never really leaves. I have never really shopped retail and have always depended on salvation army goodwills local community thrift stores so I am so thankful that I found your channel like I said you are just a ray of hope to me thank you so much for this awesome video I am so grateful for you

I say, "Welcome home." This is quite the transformation and you are amazing!

You`re an amazing woman. This is an incredible makeover, but most people couldn`t do it on their own, let alone in 48 hours. And you already had some elements that you could use. The green lamps are adorable. It`s a pity we couldn`t see your son`s and his girlfriend`s reactions. Thanks for the inspiration. I hope the young couple was very happy. What a present.

I REALLY love the wall behind the bed. It just gives the whole space an upgrade. The gorgeous lamps, too! Wow! It really all looks so warm and inviting now.☺️

Our Dear Ms.Sherry, everyone needs extra storage space. Especially apartments, which i am assuming this is. Bed risers are super cheap. Just purchase one for each leg, (some beds have 5 legs) and place the legs into the risers. Instant 8 to 10 inches more storage space under the bed, and a higher bed looks good, too!! I have done this for every bed in every house i have lived in, and it is EXCELLENT! Often you can fit complete lidded tubs underneath (recommend clear for easy viewing) and/or gobs of stuff including Christmas decorations. If you want to cover the space underneath, get a couple of thrifted sheets cut to a depth to stop just above the floor and glue gun them along the bed's bottom frame in either a flat style or gather and glue gun them for a more 'cottagy' finish!

You are so clever at reusing thrift store items. I love your idea of the peel & stick wallpaper. The whole room looks fabulous. They must be very happy with their new room.👍🏼👍🏼

No one’s going to mention the adorable cat supervising your project? And the same kitty was peering through the window at the end. I wanted to reach out and pet the cute kitty! You have a lot of talent. 😻

This transformation is wonderful! I paused this video several times to look at my house and see what quick upgrades I could do this week. I especially love the light kit idea to add a basket. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Impressive! Excellent job, Mom. I hope they appreciate how much work that was.

You have such a fine touch! The young couple is so fortunate to have you in their lives.

Beautiful! I have taken over my daughter’s bedroom, leaving his own room now. I need a new bedroom set. With this video I will search great old finds and try to create own set. Thank you for the inspiration at a lesser cost!!!🙏🌹

What a difference a day makes. This looks fantastic considering it was the ugly sister room. You did an amazing job ❤

What a wonderful gesture to your son and Madison! I'm not a "modern" enthusiast, but the green wallpaper was purely inspired and what a great wainscoting idea! I live in an Over 55 apartment and I plan to ask the landlord if I can do that. The real kicker was the way you made 2 large, pretty pictures! I'm stealing that idea too. Thanks to you I'm a woman "...with a vision, on a mission "! Youre a genius!😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Absolutely stunning and without hiring a professional decorator. I myself have a know-how in makeovers and decorating. Your son is lucky to have you🙂 Bravo. Peace and Love ☮️❤️ from sunny 🌅 Greece 🏖️🇬🇷🇺🇲

Sherry, I absolutely love this makeover, but I love all your room makeovers. Was just rewatching when you worked your magic on the total basement makeover for your son. You are one talented lady!

Wow that came out great! When I am placing something sticky like you did the pictures I lay several yard sticks or boards across and just slide each one out when I get to it. I helped my Father in law glue laminate to a counter once and that's how he did it.

As a resident of Florida, preparing for hurricanes/power outages is a fact of life. I tend to accumulate things that don't need refrigeration, especially in summer. My habit is to store water in my deep freezer (in ziplock bags). This way I have ice, and when it melts I have water. I am trying to grow my own vegetables, mainly so I know what I am eating. I feel your pain. I am also concerned about the hatred that is so prevalent. I have a policy of not discussing politics, but it hurts to hear friends (?) call conservatives things that they KNOW I am not about. You are spot on in your views! Thanks for being brave!

Amazing and beautiful transformation! It shows what a little creativity, thrifting, and willingness to DIY can accomplish on a budget. I’m so glad I watched this before painting some thrift store end tables. Now I know what prep products to use. Thanks for sharing and teaching! 🥰

Wow, wow, wow. I do not have the words to express how stunning your work is!!!

Love, love, love that peel & stick wallpaper but don't think I could do this in 48 hours, maybe a week. You are awesome...

It’s just beautiful!! Loved everything about this makeover. They are both very lucky to have you. 🥰🥰🥰

So funny...this video just showed up at the same time I completed a bedroom makeover in 48 hours! I didn't want to spend much, so I painted three walls and spray painted two metal lamp bases, wallpapered (peel and stick) one wall and then shopped my house and closets for paintings, metal candlestick holders, rug, pottery and a couple plants in pretty baskets. It turned out so good. I feel rejuvinated and I'm eyeing another room. Spouse is impressed. Also, thanks for not karate chopping pillows!

This video came up in my feed. Love her. Subscribed. Seeing her using an old drafting T-square for cutting the wallpaper brought back 40+ year old memories of my drafting classes in design school. No CAD in those days 😁.

You created a beautiful bedroom for them the wallpaper looks wonderful. I hope they realize what a blessing you are. ❤

So glad to have found your channel! This is the type of program my mom and I miss from HGTV. 😊. You’re fantastic!

I appreciate that because it gives those of us that aren't decorators some encouragement that we too can do it! Love using all your alternative methods as well such as thrift store and reusable finds because that is great on the ole budget! Will be watching more for sure! Thank you!

So much better. The style of the furniture is not mine nor, is the landscape art. But, it is a well put together room that is certainly a HUGE improvement! I’m sure they love it. 😁

This is gorgeous...so many things I wouldn't think of or wouldn't pick seeing them on their own but wow! When put together, they're stunning. Your work should be in a magazine! Beautiful 💖.
