Thank you for stepping out of your comfort zone and posting the house tour. Sometimes it takes a person several tries to find their style and I think you've found yours.
I agree. Once I've found it, I go years without changing it. The best to you all in 2023!
I totally agree. ❤
In our old house, after I came upon the color for our living room of Sherwin William's "Gray Goose", I stuck with it for years.I loved how the color changed in different lighting.
Mary your home is absolutely BEAUTIFUL. It was so awesome seeing all the changes throughout the years and honestly, it looked so comfortable and stylish for each and every era. I love the kitchen beams, the faux shiplap line in bedroom everything just beautiful. And who wouldn't want all of that gorgeous property. The beautiful country living, the peaceful pond and the nature around you. WOW!! I call you blessed Mary. Thanks for taking us along. A beautiful home. 🤗
Mary you have created a beautiful home. I love how it has evolved.
Mary, Mary thank you !for the wonderful home tour. The home was beautiful when your parents had it. The home was beautiful when you and John took over. The home is absolutely beautiful today. You and your family are changing with the times. Thanks for sharing with us. An inspiration!
Surely a dream property! Heaven on earth.
You have definitely landed at a beautiful and timeless style.
You have made me do a walk down memory lane with how my paint choices & styles have changed. Thank you for this video.
I think your final plan in white is the best ever, I never get tired of it because it’s bright and cheerful.
Your home is beautiful. I love all the clean look of white.
Absolutely love the house the way it is NOW!!!
It’s always fun to watch the progression over the years of your home. All the changes additions and subtractions of your furniture etc. to see how our tastes change over years
Love how it looks now. The outdoors area is so beautiful. Happy New Year to you and your family.
I love house tours and before-and-afters! ♥ Thank you, Mary, for sharing your home and the changes over the years. Sending love. ♥♥♥
It's all beautiful...I recently thought about changing my decor from the dark primitive colors to more of a white color, similar to yours, but most of my hutches, cabinets are in dark colors, and the thought of repainting them all white...I'm exhausted at the thought.
Love to see your history, Mary. You are so blessed to be able to have your childhood home. Your home place is very beautiful. Thank you!
Really enjoyed the video of before and after
My mother had that same couch that your mom had.😊 Funny how much we change over the years and like you I have moved away from most colors and I love white, light and bright.
Change is always good if it’s something you want. Loved all the before and afters.
I LOVE all the white!!🤍
Don't change anything beautiful.
I like the way your home looks now, inside and outside. It is so bright and peaceful, and outside it is so lush,and green! You have a beautiful place there.
Love the video of the history of your home.
This was so much fun to watch, thank you for sharing with us. 🏡
I love before and after!! It is beautiful in the past and the present. A home has a history and that is what makes it a home!! ❤
You are absolutely pure light! Thank you for genuinely letting that show & for inspiring us in your walk. 🙏🏻♥️🙏🏻
Loved the tour! Thanks! I want to share, our home is over 100 years old and when we bought it 40 years ago, the small footed tub in our bathroom confused me a little. I am so glad we had it sandblasted and refinished. Our bath is white smoke on the walls, cherry woodwork and vanity, wood plank look floor with white footed tub. I am almost 70 now and my footed tub is my comfort and joy each evening! I highly recommend a footed tub! The only drawback is cleaning the floor under the tub. I have found easier ways to clean through the years and won't give up my tub until I can no longer get in and out of it! We have our perfect retirement home....5 rooms with 17 windows. We had purchased this house to flip...but when the coal mines closed we were just finishing our project. This house found a place in our hearts and we love it and our neighbors too much to ever move. I found your site during the long days of covid....and I still look forward to each new video!
Your home is beautiful....
Love the before and after. Nothing like going from the past till now. You have such wonderful ideas.
Beautiful property😊
Your property is a piece of heaven on earth. A house is always a work in progress and thank you for sharing the different stages & styles it went through.
Your home and property look so special and it must feel even more that way for you, since it is where you grew up. I love the improvements you have made
Yes. I enjoyed this video. I even caught myself smiling when I remember some of the changes over the years. I can't believe how long it's been that I have looked forward to Wednesday mornings at 9am!
Beautiful job and family history!💖
Happy New Year, Mary!
Look forward to everything you share in 2023.
My style has changed through the years also! I love your home and the cottages. Your style is open and comfortable. I enjoy your videos.
That's the fun of home ownership, changing things however you want them. A refresh gives you a mental boost. I have had our living room painted a pale blue-grey that changes color through out the day for about 15 yrs and just can't leave that color, it is so calming.
Your home is absolutely lovely, Mary. The changes you've made over the years reflect beautifully your creativity and resourcefulness. Thank you for sharing!
I’m so glad you made this! It shows growth and progress and potential. You are fearless! I need to be more like this. Thank you
Agree & I wish I had Mary's skill with power tools and even wish I owned some of those same power tools. With the skill to use them drastic changes can be made to a home.
It's amazing how a bit of paint and thoughtful changes can make a home so different. I really like the way your home looks now and how the decor and colors have brightened the look of the house. Great changes, Mary. I look forward to seeing further changes as you make as time goes on. Thank you for sharing your home with us.
Your home is lovely inside and out. It is cozy and welcoming. Great job!
I always wait for your new videos...from Malaysia 🦋
That is awesome...loved seeing the transformation of your home.
Love all the changes you have made over the years Mary! We have been married for almost 40 years and the two homes we have lived in have been changed so many times too. Our current home has gone through some major changes and will continue as long as we are able to do the changes ourselves. I hear younger people say "I don't know what I was thinking with those color or style choices." when they refer to design aesthetics they loved in the past. It's always funny to hear that because I think it is perfectly normal to like a look and then change your mind about it in the future. We loved the look so much that we made changes to our homes. Then when we grow tired of the look, we can change it! The great thing about redoing our homes is that we can change things as we see fit for what we currently like. We don't have to be stuck in one way of decorating. Just because we loved flowered wallpaper in the 80s in mauve colors doesn't mean it has to stay that way. We can change it! Our homes will feel fresh again rather than growing stagnant looking. That's the beauty of making all things new again! Thanks for sharing the changes in your home! Happy and blessed New Year to you and your family!🥰
Excellent description of the passage of time with decor!
I have been married almost 52 years! So much longer than you. God BlessAll.
You have a beautiful home.
Absolutely beautiful. Love your videos.
Happy New Year 🎉 ✨️
Loved this video. It was so interesting to see the progression of your home.
Beautiful home
Shoutout to your parents for having you.
Mary, Your home is beautiful. Hearing how happy you are with your painted bathroom floor has inspired me to paint mine!
Happy new year Mary and family loves. Here to bless year
Sure makes you see how color opens up or makes a room look smaller. Beautiful home. Thanks for sharing.
How lucky you are to live in such an incredibly beautiful, light, roomy, airy home. A true labor of love. Your current design scheme is stunning. If I owned a home, I would emulate your style.
The house looks so much nicer with white ,much brighter and elegant
Love this video . When I watch your videos I always think how expensive and pretty your home is so I was happy to see how much of your home is diy and thrifted projects . You have done an amazing job and it gives me hope and great ideas for my home . Thank you
My favs are the second to last, and the last. I love your home, and everything you've done inside and out. I think the way it was when you were growing up was awesome too. It was very warm and cozy looking. Our homes are our safe havens. Your mom created one for you, and you in turn have created one for your your children. And John of course. We'll done Mary! 🤗
I love both the primitive country look and the farmhouse look. Both are cozy and welcoming. I have found as I get older that light and bright in my rooms is what I prefer.
It's PERFECT, THE B4 & AFTER, I have actually learned from YOU, the difference between colored, versus your white, the white stands out SO MUCH BETTER,. thank you for teaching me new methods for changing to a much simple & warmer home
It was so neat to see the progression through the years. I love the way it looks now. 🥰
Mary you have done a fantastic job with the home.
Indeed inspiring! I always like to put my mind to change, or better improvement of our home. Being 60 years of age I've had my share of changes. Yet , looking back, I can follow a certain thread throughout all my developements.
Love your house, so country. I could live there and not change a thing. I love the all white!
You made a beautiful home. Dark colors make a small home smaller. It takes time to grow your own style, and you found yours. Lovely.
Looks like a typical home I grew up with, love the change.
Loved watching the metamorphosis of your home into it's present state. Here are a couple of ideas for your stairway: Perhaps paint a pattern onto them to make them look like an old vintage Persian style rug is going up them or install an actual real Persian or other style rug. This could also help with the amount of noise while you try to sleep. Or paint some sort of pattern on the back of each step, the pattern could be anything, flowers, vines, birds, words.
I think your ideas is fantastic if you like the Persian styles, but I think they would look beautiful staying white and adding a natural new step all the way up I just think with white having the step natural wood is gorgeous.. but the Persian is beautiful in some home with that style and the white and natural just seems to bring it all together in her home , the whites is so bright and beautiful makes the home so clean , natural and fresh and elegant let’s the sunlight pour in helping keep cost down on your utility bill which is very important with the cost inflation constantly increasing .. Also seeing a photo wall is so gorgeous leading up the stairway walls it a place that at times you just want to sit and stare at all of your family or family and friends you can easily just take a seat on your stairway and stare for hours . I just love a gorgeous stairway with the photo wall it shows the beauty and another heart of your home ...
@@southernwaysdesign7744 I think of Persian style rugs to be timeless classics which go with many different & various sorts of decor styles. Such as modern, eclectic, rustic, & farmhouse. I've seen Persian which can also be called Asian style rugs in decorating magazines used often in ultra modern living rooms they somehow ground a modern room and create a warmer vibe. The rugs I'm describing are the same sort of rugs musicians often use on stage during their rock, folk, or country concerts. I think a neutral colored Persian/Asian rug {or other style rug} would look great on Mary's stairs, it would add texture & pattern without a lot of color.
interesting. I will say, our stairway was a lot quieter with carpet on them, and kept less dust from getting into the bedrooms.
I loved seeing the changes over the years. It shows your visions and creativity. What a beautiful property!
I love all the plants in the bassinet, what a cute idea and a good saving for memories. You have definitely been a proverbs 31 woman God bless you.
I wouldn't change a thing. all your styles through the years are just so pretty and peaceful. I really love your landscaping too. 🍃
A women after my own heart. I think just paint can do amazing things and so low cost. Your home is lovely.
I think you've morphed your look to your home until it's perfect! I love the clean, crisp look of the white with subtle touches of wood tone and green. Love watching your channel!
Maravillosos los cambios, muy personales. Felicidades
Everything looks great! What a fun video and so reassuring that even your lovely style progressed and evolved into what it is now. God’s blessings to you and yours in the new year!
The white defiantly looks best in my opinion. Your home looks so cozy.
Thank you so much Mary for showing your home in progression. You have made a beautiful home for your family 💕
This was a fun video. What a transformation over the years. You home is cozy and beautiful.
They say the white kitchen is outdated, but your beautiful kitchen is stunning!!! So stunning that my plans to continue with a white kitchen are going forward!!! You are an inspiration! Thank you!!!
Love seeing the pictures of before. I am 73 so I remember some of the look your Mon and Dad had 🙂 You have done a beautiful job updating. The outside is just gorgeous. Can you fish in the pond, it is so pretty. Thank you..
This is the kind of video I enjoy watching.....no selling stuff. Just your hard work over the ages.
everything...each step you took lead u to the perfection of your style now 😀
I love the old photos. They definitely show how far you have come. Your house is beautiful and thank you for this video.
Love all your changes. Its exactly what I do when I get tired of the same old look.
Loved the progress you’ve made! I do need to ask how you keep your house so clean and neat with 2 boys? 😂 TFS❤
Your home has always been beautiful from the Amish to the present
Your home is lovely. I appreciate the fact that you show so many inexpensive ideas on your channel.
The house does seem so cozy. I anticipate more great videos in 2023. You have taught me some great decorating tips.
I prefer the colors you used...white gets OLD, too!
Your property is gorgeous! 💘
We built our house 35 years ago…….. I never stopped to really think of all the changes, upgrades, and additions we did through the years both inside and out.
I love seeing the changes!
Andreas is our favorite local place for furniture. 🥰
It was a good lesson for us to see what you changed and why, what worked and what was a disappointment. There are people who work up the courage to try things, and when it isn't quite what they want, they are devastated. They are afraid to try again. They need to know that they aren't alone and that you, who have a beautiful home, have been where they are! Thank you for raising spirits and building hope!
Your house is beautiful!!! I Love seeing all the changes over the years. Thank you for sharing your home with all of us.
Hi Mary FYI I started watching YT during the COVID shut down in March of 2020 and I found your channel not long after that. I watched you do your floor in your bathroom sometime during 2020 as you were painted it! I am a professional Artists working as a Graphic Designer for almost 40 years! My first thought when you painted that floor well it will never last, well you proved me wrong. As an Artist I do love color but your white is nice but not for me! I also struggle with anyone painting wood but so many do and it is nice but not for me either. I have those beautiful wooden oak cabinets in my kitchen and would NEVER paint them. I refinished a table that was my Grand parents that had so many layers of paint on it, it took forever when I was younger which let me with a bad taste to ever paint wood. Just me! I truly love your channel we live in Ohio about a hour from Berlin and I have bought many of your things! Thanks for keeping me entertained with your video! Happy New Year!
Thanks for sharing your before and after pics of your home! You have worked very hard at the transformation to what it looks like today. The old barn beams in the kitchen tell a story and add lots of character to your kitchen.
It has always Been beautiful, but my favorite way is how you have it now ,all the white. To me, the outside could not be any better. it is beautiful, Especially in the spring when all the trees bloom out & look beautiful. Love your home.
Thanks for sharing, Mary. I believe a home is never finished. I have lived in my home for 35 years and have been changing things since I moved in. Just recently we made some major changes to the upstairs. New flooring, ceiling and torn down walls. Started saving for the bedrooms then will save for a basement redo. At the same time I am planning outside changes as well. We have a large backyard so I want to change my current vegetable garden to an herb garden and move the vegetable garden down further in the yard so I can grow more vegetables. Like I said, always a work in progress but I enjoy the process and will continue to work on it until I can’t anymore.
Mary I think change is good in a home and yours is very pretty. I enjoyed the video. Keep doing what you do. Home is a reflection of what one feels comfort,love and happiness.
Fun to see all the changes! I love how your home looks now, very bright and cheerful 😁Happy new year to you all Mary!🎉
Hello from România ! You have a beautiful home! If you put the Curtains closer to the ceiling the room will look better and the windows larger. God bless you!
Love it. I do like your original green island.
My favorite color is a soft/winter white. Earth tones go so nicely with it and it never gets old.
You've done a terrific, terrific job.
Loved this video Mary !! You have such a beautiful home ! Love seeing the changes over the years !!
I loved seeing the changes over the years! Love the changes that were made. The whites really are so serene. 😍
Your family is blessed to have you Mary! You've always made a beautiful home for them. It was fun to see the style changes over the years-brought back some great memories for me and some of my decor.
