WOW! That lamp is what you would call a "Statement Piece!" It anchors the space without overwhelming it, because of the clear nature of the seeded glass. The black metal chairs would seem out of place, but I agree that they work with the black metal of the windows. Your choice of going with the white trim toned down "the cabin in the woods" feel that the room had without it. BRAVO!!!
Haven't commented in awhile but I wanted to say how much I love this room! Not sure what style you're going for but this is a perfect modern country room. So sophisticated with the graphic black and white against those gorgeous walls. Congrats! And a rug and other accessories will help with the echo
You should have Ashley search around the Internet for a beautiful table runner that hangs down each end of the table. That will also help to absorb the echo.
Sometimes it's hard to see another person's vision for something. This room was a good example but man did you nail it. It turned out absolutely beautiful and th light fixture is the cherry on top of the Sunday. ❤ Hugs
Oh my gosh! I am so happy for you all!!! That dining table set, pendant light, and wall hangings are absolutely beautiful! 💯 The whole room is beautiful! 💯❣️
That pendant is gorgeous 😍🥰, I love the table and benches too, such a warm inviting room you guys! It's always so cute seeing Maverick dig in to be the helper, he's so cute😊
That is the perfect size and design for that room... Had you gone smaller, it would not look right... the lighting is the star of the show... :) Good Job...
The light looks great. It doesn't take away from the room, or seem in the way, because you can see through it. Maybe a rug under the table to help with the echo sound. Also maybe some large live plants in the corners of the room.
A room that size needs a large light. A smaller one would feel lost and, dare I say, cheap. I think you are lucky you ended up with that one. I love it!
😮Doug and Ashley! This room is so beautiful and different. You all are truly unique, and your home is a reflection of you all. I love how excited Doug gets over the room and his humor showing. You all are a awesome family!💙🩷🩷💙
Doug and Ashley, I love how the dining room came together. I heard youa few times that your house was taking on a feeling of a farmhouse rather than your original vision of a home with lots of wood with the elegance of brass and early American beauty. I watched a show on PBS called "Home for Christy: Roast Turkey." This particular episode was all about her redesign and upgrading of her home with lots of wood walls, floors and some ceilings. She used lots of brass and crystal accents. The name of the home is Swan's Nest. In the middle of all the construction work she cooked and baked her Thanksgiving meal for her family. So not only do we get the restoration but also recipes! PBS aired a rerun of this episode today, Nov. 11th. If you read this in time perhaps it will air again on one of their channels, right now it's on the PBS Create channel. Sorry this was a rather long winded comment but I felt it apropos to share with you both. Continue sharing your hardworking with us and letting us in on your many projects. 😊 God bless you all. 🙏🏻😊❤️🌻
The lamp is perfect!!! Love the table and chairs too! How about adding a area rug under the table for the echo problem? Also a few hanging plants in the windows would be amazing to warm it up! GREAT Job, Love the entire room!!!! oh yes, and some table dressing. :)
Nice job. The white trim is the boss in this home. Something to think about later on if the other rooms get overwhelming with the dark wood. Overall, you guys have done a fantastic job. Nice to see a kid being a kid. Mighty Maverick in his super builder blanket cape, gets the job done. 😂 Best fun ever.
The playful excitement and pure joy in Doug’s expressions, actions and tone made me so happy. What a wonderful outcome. Perfect in every way-the window trim, the macramé wall art, topped by the furniture, which is a good fit. Love the chair bench combo, with the crown glory the light you chose. How perfect! Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners here will undoubtedly be warm, homey memory-making moments, forever remembered. I envision many happy family moments at the table, under that stunning lamp.
I'm impressed! This room is wonderful. It has the look of an old colonial inn. Very nice. I'd want to stay in that room long after dinner enjoying company and conversation.
There are hundreds of words to compliment your work ethics and all I can say is......I agree with all you and darlin wife have done here and all renovations done in the past that I had the pleasure of viewing. God has so blessed your family. Stay well. Hug those kids as much as you love your work.❤️❤️❤️👍❤️❤️❤️🙏
Room looks really good now, Love the Table, Benches, Chairs!! That light remember the old bulbs from years ago with the Filament in the middle! ,maybe 1 of those would make it more authenic. How do you do it Ashley?, all these videos coming out And running a family Thanks for youre time Love from UK x x @ 3.30 in the afternoon x x
Once again, the craftsmanship is impeccable. This dining room looks absolutely spectacular. You’ve made incredible choices and it looks fantastic. Congratulations.
Your dinning room looks really cool. I love the look of the room. Light fitting is really cool too. Nice seeing those photos at the end of your family sitting around the table and enjoyng your first meal there together. You were so smart in putting in a lot of windows into the room so you can enjoy the views while sitting there. What a lovely place to sit and relax and eat and enjoy the views from the windows. I understand why you went with metal chairs. We have a dinning room table with 6 wooden chairs, and two of them have already broken and have been thrown away. I can also picture your family members sitting there in the dinning room at different times of the day, working there and having a cup of coffee or tea there. Very nice space in your lovely home.
The room is beautiful!! And that light is just another example of ur inspiring design style. It’s a perfect size. Being glass allows it to fit perfectly. I like the simple touches. Minimal is always best. Wondering though about the need for some fabric in the room. It will muffle the echo. Perhaps a organic fiber rug would be functional and beautiful. Looking forward to the kitchen. No I’m excited for the kitchen.
I love the white trim and the table. The lamp is something different and I like it too. Maybe one day in the future you should try a big wide old cristal chandelier. It would look amazing as well. I highly recommend that you put a thick scratch resistant glass on the table so it won't be damaged over time. Maybe a little 2cm wider on eachbside so in case something spelled it won't sitck between the table and the glass. Ashley and Doug, please know that whenever I suggest something is out of love and care. It's your house, you have every right to do whatever with it. We just like to engage with you guys. Giving you suggestions and ideas while we learn new things from you as well. We're learning together. Take care Have a wonderful day. It was beautiful seeing you all together around the table ❤️
Area rugs are a great way to add a bit of color and/or to change things seasonally, too! Also helps protect your pretty floors! Look out for good ones on your adventures to estate and thrift sales!
The black metal chairs goes great because of the black windows and the whole scheme. The sunlight coming in is beautiful. Love the macrame pieces. What fun chandelier. 🎉 👏
Oh, my. I have tried to explain to my family and friends that I like my decor to be rustic, but not primative. No one understands. Now I say, I like my decor to be organic. You, in my opinion, nailed it!
Doug and Ashley, you always make the right decisions for you and this light is perfect. The room is really sweet and gets more homey with each thing you do. Can’t wait to see more !
I love it. Everything is beautiful. You had a great vision for this room and it’s great to see it all come together. The glass globe is big for sure, but I would keep it too. It adds to the room. Your favorite room so far?
The dining room is gorgeous. The ceiling light is such a statement piece for the room; it’s the perfect size. I know all of you will enjoy many meals over many years. Maverick, you are such a good helper. Belle you too are a great helper ❤ As always be well, be blessed ❤
Love how the dining room is coming out. If the chairs are too low you can put cushions in the Seats & Backs. The Metal Chairs look great in black & match the window frames. Can't Wait...Thanksgiving Dinner Served in The New Dining Room!
I think that lamp looks very good. As for echo … try an area rug just big enough for the table legs and will help absorb sound. The chairs match the window trim perfect … love the benches
Curtains will help with the echo. You might want to put felt circles on the bottom of all the legs to keep the floor scuff free. It's looking very good!
It turned out lovely, now you just need to make it homey. Placemats will protect the table finish and a nice bowl or a vase of flowers for in the middle is pretty minimalist like you both like. Just my opinion, it is your dining room.
It is your home, you asked, your pendant light is a little large for the space. I would have gone smaller. But it is your home and if you are happy with it so be it. Loving the table and benches. Beautiful work.
Good job, as usual. I just love how Maverick works with you. He’s learning how to do things from his dad, something I was not able to do (he passed away when I was about Maverick’s age). Doug, you are giving him a wonderful legacy.
With the furniture and the light the room looks bigger. Because of the sloping ceiling it seemed so small, but you can see it's not that bad. It's a much better dining room than kitchen. I approve the choice 100%.
Doug and Ashley, your dining room and furnishing, in keeping with the era of the home, are the perfect blend of simplicity and elegance. As a near duplicate of my family's table and seating situation as a youngster, it did my heart good to see your family sitting together for the first of many meals at your table. : ) Curtains, rugs and cushions are options to remedy the echoing. God Bless and Protect You and Yours.
Oh my goodness. This reveal was a lot. That trim around the windows is beautiful. And you did an awesome picking out the table chairs benches and oh my goodness goodness that light fixture. This room is my favorite so far. You and your family exceed with every room you share with us. I just love your family and your videos.
Beautifully done! I grew up in a Dutch Mennonite home where my foster father made his table and both ends had a chair and the sides were benches we had macrome hanging on the walls as well this brought back wonderful memories. Love the color scheme!
As usual you have created a great and beautiful place for your family to dine, play games, and do school work. And it is done to your taste the way you want it. Good job.
Maybe a nice wool runner rug just inside the door would dampen the echo? The barrister bookcase is beautiful! It’ll look awesome there, and you could put a few plants in there too, maybe. I love your HOME. It’s not just a project, or a remodeled house, it’s a beautiful home. I truly enjoy your process. Thank you for sharing!😊
Wowie wow wow wow!!!! You guys knocked it out of the park once again!!! I love everything you did. So thoughtful, even down to the amount of legs you want touching the floor!! I would have never thought of that!!! I pray God blesses you with many more dinners gathered around that beautiful table ❤ Thanks for sharing!
An area rug under the table will help with the echo

I'll second your BRAVO!!!
We are released! But this is one of the best rooms so far. Awesome transformation. Can't wait for the kitchen makeover.
Thanks. I was wondering what was left to do.
They did the kitchen. It's not a big room. Dark walls with lighter cabinets. It's a jewel box of a room!
@@damogranheart5521 Yeah then did a few things. But it is not complete yet.
@@kevinnye5132 The comments were disabled when the video was posted.
Love, benches perfect amazing light, beautiful table, wow!
The light is a beautiful focal point. I love the contrast of wood and glass.
A rug under the table might help with the echo.
maybe an 8x10 indoor/outdoor rug under the table to cut down on the echo
Haven't commented in awhile but I wanted to say how much I love this room! Not sure what style you're going for but this is a perfect modern country room. So sophisticated with the graphic black and white against those gorgeous walls. Congrats! And a rug and other accessories will help with the echo
Suggest you put pads under the feet of the chairs, bench and table. That will reduce damage to the floor over the years.
You should have Ashley search around the Internet for a beautiful table runner that hangs down each end of the table. That will also help to absorb the echo.
A rug under the table will help with that echo. The new tabletop could benefit from oil coating.
and cushions on the benches would help
The Dining Room is beautiful and the furniture and light is perfect. Well done guys
Sometimes it's hard to see another person's vision for something. This room was a good example but man did you nail it. It turned out absolutely beautiful and th light fixture is the cherry on top of the Sunday. ❤ Hugs
Great transformation. An area rug under your table will help with the echo.
Get a nice carpet for under the table. Will kill the noise and the benches and chairs won't scratch the floor.
I like the cape on maverick
"Oooooo"! is absolutely correct. The room, trim, light fixture and the table look absolutely perfect. Very well done!!
I really like that white trim it just sets off the whole room it’s beautiful
Everything about your dinning room is absolutely beautiful !!❤️❤️❤️❤️
The dining room looks fantastic! With all the windows the room has, makes the room open and airy. I love the macrame hanging on the walls. Great job!
WOW ! Your dining room looks like an AMISH dining room with your polished wood table & bench seat and SWAG lamp.
The light fixture makes the room!
I smiled so hard at Maverick's cape!!! Reminds me of when my 42 yr old son was Maverick's age and did the same.
Oh my gosh! I am so happy for you all!!! That dining table set, pendant light, and wall hangings are absolutely beautiful! 💯 The whole room is beautiful! 💯❣️
The transformation is awesome. Great job.
I see your son is helping with his super powers (cape) ❤. The calm demeanor of your wife is so relaxing.
That pendant is gorgeous 😍🥰, I love the table and benches too, such a warm inviting room you guys! It's always so cute seeing Maverick dig in to be the helper, he's so cute😊

I think the light is gorgeous, the table beautiful. The light size takes the emptiness out of the room, and a sensational centrepiece.. a great choice
How nice to see you all sitting down to enjoy your dinner in your newly completed dining room! It really came together and looks so beautiful.
I audibly gasped when I saw that lamp shade! Absolutely gorgeous!
I love the dinning room light! Well done! 😊
Really like the chunky window frame and the white frame with black windows. You were right about the look being crisp.
Wow the room reminds me of gingerbread house chocolate with white creamy windows , love it! ❤️
There’s only one word for the dining room…..
BEAUTIFUL!!!
How gratifying to finish the dining room! I love love the light! It all works so well, Enjoy your meal and thanks for sharing.

It was beautiful seeing you all together around the table ❤️
If you put a rug under the table it would help with the sound!
I think I like this dinning room better than anything, perfect wall color, perfect window, perfect floor and now table too. Loved it ❤
Phenomenal light
This room is so inviting and the lamp is perfect for the space! I am very amazed at your workmanship and ideas and am proud of you kids! Enjoy!!
looks great! you might consider an area rug under the table to help with softening the sound in the room.

You did a great job. I especially like the white trim with the dark walls, it provides a clean bright appearance that will always look new and fresh.
You two always out do yourselves. Great job in the dining room, and the pendant light is one of kind. It's bold and beautiful. Very nice.
Hi Ash & Doug! Your dinning room is absolutely gorgeous!
Ohhhhhhhhhhh I can just envision the many times you will give thanks to our heavenly Father for all His blessings! the Berrys in Nova Scotia!
Doug and Ashley, you always make the right decisions for you and this light is perfect. The room is really sweet and gets more homey with each thing you do. Can’t wait to see more !
What a transformation from the "before" picture...y'all are great examples of folks who have a vision and see it through. Like the cool light!
Looks great and nice to hear the Diyfferent theme music from old 🤜🏻👍🏻
I love how the dining room came out. Every time you finish a room, that room becomes my favorite. The colors are so slick, really cool choices...
I love it. Everything is beautiful. You had a great vision for this room and it’s great to see it all come together. The glass globe is big for sure, but I would keep it too. It adds to the room. Your favorite room so far?
I don’t usually comment but I do enjoy your videos and this one is fantastic.👏👏👏🥰
Curtains and rug will cut down on echo
Love love love love love that lamp.
How about a nice rug....might help with the echo !
The light is fabulous !!
I love a big light over the dining table.
That light is so big but it sure works in that room!!!! Congrats on that dining room!!! It sure is a nice space!!
The dining room is gorgeous. The ceiling light is such a statement piece for the room; it’s the perfect size.
I know all of you will enjoy many meals over many years.
Maverick, you are such a good helper. Belle you too are a great helper ❤
As always be well, be blessed ❤
Love watching Maverick and dad working side by side
Oh and the metal chairs go perfect with the windows and it gives a little spice to the wooden table and benches!!
Love how the dining room is coming out. If the chairs are too low you can put cushions
in the Seats & Backs. The Metal Chairs look great in black & match the window frames.
Can't Wait...Thanksgiving Dinner Served in The New Dining Room!

As for echo … try an area rug just big enough for the table legs and will help absorb sound.
The chairs match the window trim perfect … love the benches
Curtains will help with the echo. You might want to put felt circles on the bottom of all the legs to keep the floor scuff free. It's looking very good!

I can see some fun board games going on in that room!
Way to go everyone!❤

Get some felt pads for the bottom of the leg so your floor doesn't get scratched.

This room is my favorite so far. You and your family exceed with every room you share with us. I just love your family and your videos.
Beautifully done! I grew up in a Dutch Mennonite home where my foster father made his table and both ends had a chair and the sides were benches we had macrome hanging on the walls as well this brought back wonderful memories. Love the color scheme!
As usual you have created a great and beautiful place for your family to dine, play games, and do school work. And it is done to your taste the way you want it. Good job.
Maybe a nice wool runner rug just inside the door would dampen the echo? The barrister bookcase is beautiful! It’ll look awesome there, and you could put a few plants in there too, maybe.
