Does anyone else find themselves singing, “🎶…INDIGO SUNSET…it’s the only way to go…🎵” throughout the week?! MaCenna, it’s so exciting to watch your extraordinary visions unfold & come together! The front (entry) room begs, “Come in!” (An aside~ before watching your videos, I’d never been to a Flea Market, a Thrift Store, or an estate sale. You are opening up a whole new ‘world’ to me! ~So Grateful!) 🌅

So happy that you have Romeo at your side with this challenging diy!! You seem really happy on this trip. You have manifested a life that is filling your cup,!! Congrats!!!
Just wanted to say how much you have inspired me. I’m 66 and have now done moulding/trim for first time to elevate cupboards and hope you don’t mind but I’m stealing your window trim that you have in the cottage for windows that have blinds in my spare bedroom. Truly you have given me a new excitement to work on creative projects thank you ❤
I'm at a bad place at the moment. And your light and videos gives me hope in life. Thank you Macenna❤ I love you for being you and bringing joy and light to this world . Prayers for all the good ones put there.
I feel like that marble vase if from a cemetery and the stone cylinder is for ashes. I even asked my husband what it looked like and he said “That’s an Urn”. I think the metal one might be a headstone vase as well. Awesome finds! 💜
My parents always had a formal living room and dining room for the grown ups while we were growing up. It was always kept neat and tidy for guests. But in our family room/ tv room you could tell children were living there. It might not seem like something you need right now but as you add children to your family you might find that extra “adult” chill space a breath of fresh air. 😊 It’s coming along beautifully!
Hi MaCenna! The Brimfield Flea Market is actually in Brimfield, Massachusetts. I go every single year for years now, and I have not seen the entire market yet! It's HUGE!! July is extremely hot here. September is the better choice if you decide to visit! I hope you get to see it some day! Teri ❤
I just love going to flea markets with you! You always show items in a steady way so we get to look around. I have watched other 'come flea with me' videos (I thought about you the whole time! 😂) but they pan too fast, skim over the good stuff or spend too much time on non- thrilling finds. You're the best!!!
MACENNA, I found the bottom of the m&m jar (technically the peanut part) at my thrift store this week!!! I was so excited and the friend I was with had no idea why because it was just a glass jar to her, but I was like, it’s THE JAR
@@xomacennavlogsyou could eventually cut out a small door in the wall and turn it into a little playhouse for your kids (once you have them and they grow into toddlers/kids). My dad built something like that for us under the stairs in our basement and my siblings and I loved it when we were kids!
Love you MaCenna! You encourage me. I bought my first house alone after my divorce and watching you gives me courage! Stripping my old cupboards. Used your cello trick. OMG so much easier! Keep up the amazing work. If you run out of projects I have a few for you!
You may find that you really like having a second living room for now. When our kids were little we had an eat-in kitchen a formal dining room and a living room in our 100 year old craftsman bungalow. We turned our formal dining room into a family room. The living room became the place for music, no TV and no Legos. If you've ever stepped on one with bare feet you know how important that is. Once our kids were grown our family room became a formal dining room again.
Hi MaCenna from the UK 😊 I’m absolutely in love with your new home, it suits you and your little family so well! Can’t wait to see what’s to come! Also still listening to your podcasts and they are great! ❤
Honestly, stripping wood work is awful. I know how it feels. I had to strip 140 years worth of paint off my door frames because the layers of paint had taken away the details of the original frames. It took me 4 weeks to do 3 door frames and went through so much chemical stripper. You’re doing way better than me!
:) :) :) you see, that sounds like my dream-vacation, because i used to strip old wood doors in my teenage years and always enjoyed that (sometimes 15plus layers LOL) with the beams i somewhat think OVER HEAD just sucks though (like even door frames over head always just was more hard)
I have to admit, as much as I love your videos, if Kinsley is ever in the shot, I completely focus on her and her expressions and what she's doing - to the point that I don't even hear what you're saying anymore! I have to "rewind" and watch it again to see and hear what the "supporting cast" said!
The room is looking fabulous. I think the stone container is for matches, you may have to put tape around them then use your big saw to cut them to the right length. The front door will look amazing once painted black ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I was waiting for a video MaCenna. Really I love your decorations. First video I ever saw was of the room makeover of your nieces. I have a daughter and I always look at your interior decorations. That was it. I became a big fan. Love love love MaCenna!
Your summer videos are always so good and relaxing, can’t get enough of your stories after those years 😊❤ hopefully we will have canning videos qt the end of the summer this year :):)
Formal sitting will be a godsend when you have a family. No tv and no toys for a relax space. I loved ours in our previous home when our family was young. Have down sized since.
What about a beautiful mirror that either sits on that entryway table or mounted to the wall that way the stairwell/gallery wall bounces off the reflection but the mirror also just helps bounce off any light coming in through the window! ☺️ just a thought
The garden is a wonderful obsession to have. Ever changing with the seasons and throughout the years. The smells, the birds and butterflies and ladybugs. The restful greens and vibrant flowers. The edibles. What’s not to be obsessed with? 🌸🌿🐝🐞
I have been waiting for you to mention the Brimfield Flea Market! It’s in Massachusetts. I’m from MA and have been so many times. You and your mom would LOVE it. The best time to go is in September for the weather.
This front room is going to be such a beautiful formal dining room! Another thought is that it could continue to serve as a formal (or casual) sitting/living area and the other living space could be more of a playroom once you have kids. The house I grew up in was a new build (bought at a time when land and houses were MUCH cheaper than they are now!) and we technically had three living spaces. One was the "formal" sitting room with a piano (right at the front of the house), one was the more casual living/tv room that was connected to the open-concept dining room and kitchen, and the third was a large playroom in the basement. The house was built with an unfinished basement, but my dad finished it almost entirely by himself, so he was able to create a large space for us kids to make a mess and be kids. Setting aside a space like that is definitely worth thinking about!
Brimfield, Massachusetts is an awesome flea market which is huge. It is about 8 miles long. Definitely a multiple day destination. Plan on staying for days. My husband, son and myself went for only one day and loved it. Be prepared for lots of walking. Found lots of beautiful treasures.
Hi MaCenna from 🇨🇦. I love your videos, vlogs and especially your design sense! Those patterned rollers are for making your own wallpaper, in a way. You paint it directly on your walls, or any other surface you like.
My new wall sconces are on the way! When I lived in my son's basement apartment I upgraded the light and it made a big difference and all his friends tramped through to look. Inspired a rash of new fixtures. I spent the first 6 years paying off the mortgage instead of goodies.
I have used Kona for my coffered ceiling and the trim in our living room and hallway. I love that color so much. It makes the trim and beams look so chic.
The beams look fantastic. It really makes the room special. You were right about them. I think that jar could be for ashes? Maybe not. You could put anything in there. Stone is great for keeping oils fresh etc. I can hardly wait to see the other beams once they are done. The colour choice on the fireplace makes it pop out. You have quite the eye for design. Considering your mother designed several houses its inevitable that this is what you want to do for a living. Maybe one day you can branch out and help others to design their homes.
She’s said in another video (maybe a few times actually I think) that they plan to restore the rest of the beams in the house (living room and maybe one in bathroom?). (:
I feel your pain! I’ve been painting my basement ceiling rafters with leftover ceiling paint. They look like the underside of a beach cottage and great but my body is screaming at me. Thank you for all your inspiration. Your videos motivate me! I have done all sorts of things and have so many power tools now! The next step is installing the LVP flooring. Love ya.
Love all the this you found at the flea. Plus you have taught me so much. Taught me about colors in painting. Plus about gallery walls to. I look at things so differently now. Plus how to make you house flow. Thank you so much.❤❤❤😊😊😊😊
My mother had a formal living room and lived in living room, never really used it but when we had gatherings it came in handy to have for extra seating and conversation area. It comes in handy and now we do not have a formal living room in our new home we miss the formal sitting area. But I do understand the vibe you are thinking of with the dining room.. both good ideas I love this home so much ❤
You have truly transformed this room with great work on those beams and arches! Carefully studied to the smallest detail 👌 now that the arches are complete, why do I feel the wall on top of the fireplace needs some trim to match? Then a painting to center the rectangle trim? I guess it’s my imagination 😅 The green stone container might be for tea leaves? But I would use it to store fireplace matches by cutting them to size, or for my colored pencils on my desk maybe.
I do the same thing when I go shopping! I'll hold it for a while, and if I get tired of holding it, I put it back. If I don't, I'll buy it. 😁 If I'm somewhere where I can easily put stuff back, I'll do a "detox" before I check out. I double or triple check my cart. See what looks/feels right to keep, and put back what doesn't (Sometimes, I'll even leave with nothing after I sort through everything. 😅).
I love your ideas! Have you considered leaving it as a seating area, just in case you need the other room as a playroom/ tv area for when you have children.
Hi MaCenna, love your videos! I think that green marble container could be a small Urn maybe for a pet. I know kinda yuck but I wanted to give my 2cents. 😊
I've never seen a cremation urn with a screw-on lid. They are sealed with a special adhesive. They sell these with the screw-on lids for loose tea or spices. Or you can purchase ones where the lid simply sits on top for use in the bathroom or on a dresser.
Hi Macenna, so the stone container is so pretty, you could put personalized tea bags that you can make yourself now that you have that beautiful garden; you put it on your coffee table or coffee/tea bar. I think the stone will keep the flavors and scents strong
Brimfield Flea Market is in MA and I've been going the past few years and I absolutely love it! I usually end up just walking around and looking at everything but it's definitely an all day thing if you want to look at almost everything. There's also a couple of other antique stores in the area that I love to visit (Sturbridge Antique Shops and Crompton Collective). Highly recommend going to either the May or September event though cause it gets ungodly hot in the summer. But with climate change who knows.
Love that green marble container and how unique it is! Don't know what it's for, but thought about you putting your Nespresso coffee pods in it 😆or maybe epsom salts in the bathroom 🤷♀ I also saw that Castlery is having their 4th of July sale and I was trying to find out in your past vlogs if you had a discount code for them 🙏
The wall behind you when you came in from flea market and sit down is showing green on Camera . Loved ur haul ! The green container looks like for ashes.
Regarding the green marble container with the screw top lid, I was thinking matches as well, or you could use it in the kitchen and put things like Chia seeds in there, or flaxseeds, or in the bathroom for q-tips, or extra double edge razors, or combs, or for little treats for Kinsley, or on your desk to hold pens/pencils, or perhaps insert a tall semi-narrow candle into it. Just suggestions.
I like the green container with the screw lid. It would be lovely with fireplace matches with with the part that you light going up out of it and then the lid beside it on top of a fireplace mantle. I think it would be look very nice. I always enjoy each of your blogs.
MaCenna I think you should do whatever trim you plan on doing on the wall by the stairs on the opposite wall (shared with the kitchen) as well! To add interest but without art since you want to do a gallery wall up the stairs!
Brimfield is amaaaazing! It will take you several days to see it all. Hope you go this year. Rooms book up early, so you may want to make some reservations you can cancel if necessary. Let us know and we’ll keep an eye out for you!
We have 2 reception rooms, one is our everyday sitting tv room and the other, we use when one wants to watch tv but the other wants to read. It’s nice to have a more calming space
Hi MaCenna, I know Brimfield very well. It’s actually in Massachusetts where I live. Best advice I have is be warned July will most likely be hot and humid with no shade, just open fields and a mile long at least. It is an antiquers dream, endless (lol). September is perfect.

There is a hand scraper a lot of funiture Refinishers are enjoying it. It can let you go soft or hard in removing hard stuff.
The green vessel is for loose leaf tea! Very pretty find!!
That’s what I was going to say. It seems like a tea canister. Im glad I’m not the only one who thought that.
@@emeraldsea28 I looked at it and my first thought was, OMG, I hope somebody's ashes weren't in there, LOLOL
Dude! I thought funeral urn, too. I like the idea of tea better!

Too small, unless for a small dog. Watch out, Kinsley! 😏
It’s an infinity jar for apothecary herbs
Your mom should do a painting of your garden flowers in the cream marble vase. Epic!

Huge multi day is correct. Have vended and shopped.

I found one too when I was thrifting and purely got it because of Macenna and her Mom's excitement over that planters jar😂
Have you thought of using the area under the stairs to create storage or make a cute little dog "cottage" for your furbaby?
I would love a reading nook under the stairs for children for a rainy day
what a great idea! Kinsley would love that!
It’s actually the storage area in my closet for like luggage and things

I wrote nearly this exact comment on one of her previous videos! Kids really change a house.
Enjoyed watching your hike, it's a nice reminder of how beautiful LA is.
in Europe we use(d) the decorative rollers instead of paper tapestry on walls❤
Here, too. But I think not the younger crowd. They'll rediscover it soon!
so cool... they were literally the only thing at the flea market that caught my interest ... i would just have them to well have them...

Always a good day when MaCenna uploads 😊
Awesome and inspiring! Love the work you’re putting in to this house too. I’m sanding down my lounge and painting it this week. It’s slow but fun.
Honestly, stripping wood work is awful. I know how it feels. I had to strip 140 years worth of paint off my door frames because the layers of paint had taken away the details of the original frames. It took me 4 weeks to do 3 door frames and went through so much chemical stripper. You’re doing way better than me!
O wow! I’m so glad there weren’t too many layers of paint to strip!
:) :) :) you see, that sounds like my dream-vacation, because i used to strip old wood doors in my teenage years and always enjoyed that (sometimes 15plus layers LOL)
with the beams i somewhat think OVER HEAD just sucks though (like even door frames over head always just was more hard)
Indigo sunset, it’s the only way to goOo 😄🤚
The stone jar with a twist lid reminds me of a skinny urn for ashes
I have to admit, as much as I love your videos, if Kinsley is ever in the shot, I completely focus on her and her expressions and what she's doing - to the point that I don't even hear what you're saying anymore! I have to "rewind" and watch it again to see and hear what the "supporting cast" said!
The room is looking fabulous. I think the stone container is for matches, you may have to put tape around them then use your big saw to cut them to the right length. The front door will look amazing once painted black ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Or maybe incense?
I think it should be Dark brown like a wood color, the color of the beams actually!
I think you'd need something with a striker, if you're really using the matches.
I was waiting for a video MaCenna. Really I love your decorations. First video I ever saw was of the room makeover of your nieces. I have a daughter and I always look at your interior decorations. That was it. I became a big fan. Love love love MaCenna!

Your haul is to die for! I want both of those vases!! And the picture and frames. Amazing 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I love love that picture and the frame around it. Will be awesome in your house. 😂Drew will be jealous you having that fluted vase. 😂
It's 3:30 a.m. and I'm here watching Macenna while eating Oreos. Help. 🤣

Haha, I’m in Australia and watching, it’s almost 4am here 🥱😴
That frame on the floral painting is gorgeous!! And I love the stone canister!
Formal sitting will be a godsend when you have a family. No tv and no toys for a relax space. I loved ours in our previous home when our family was young. Have down sized since.
I agree. Love that I have both formals. I can escape or simply just sit elsewhere. Luxury for sure but so great!

The twist lidded marble container is PERFECT to fill with flowers. Hehe...the 420 kind 😊
This front room is going to be such a beautiful formal dining room! Another thought is that it could continue to serve as a formal (or casual) sitting/living area and the other living space could be more of a playroom once you have kids. The house I grew up in was a new build (bought at a time when land and houses were MUCH cheaper than they are now!) and we technically had three living spaces.

Great job on those beams. They turned out gorgeous. I love Romeos comment….Look at my Ford hat😂😂😂😂😂
I’m forever envious of your proximity to such amazing flea/thrift markets. There is nothing like them near me 😭 so many wonderful finds!
I think the green stone pot with the lid. (the last thing you showed) is for tea leaves. I have tin ones from Japan.
I agree, a dining room makes more sense than having two living rooms ❤️
I absolutely love the floral painting!! The green canister is interesting. I hope you share what it is if you discover the purpose.
I too love DIY and you sooo inspire me! I love your energy, creativity & positivity! I always look forward to seeing your newest project!! 😍🔨🪚🪛
I totally agree on keeping the stairs white. It allows the dark wood of the treads to show up and match the beams.

Brimfield is in Massachusetts…if you fly into Boston’s Logan airport, it’s only about 1 1/2 hour drive, just past Worcester. A really lovely area!!
Brimfield is in Massachusetts, The Elephant’s Trunk is in Connecticut - both are awesome!!
I have used Kona for my coffered ceiling and the trim in our living room and hallway. I love that color so much. It makes the trim and beams look so chic.

Are you planning on restoring the beams in the main living room too? I cannot wait to see the whole house with those gorgeous beams!
She’s said in another video (maybe a few times actually I think) that they plan to restore the rest of the beams in the house (living room and maybe one in bathroom?). (:
Amazing the green hue in your living room at 22mins in.. such a great colour for surrounding garden to influence
Such a beautiful space and I love the paint color!

Hi Macenna, so the stone container is so pretty, you could put personalized tea bags that you can make yourself now that you have that beautiful garden; you put it on your coffee table or coffee/tea bar. I think the stone will keep the flavors and scents strong
Brimfield Flea Market is in MA and I've been going the past few years and I absolutely love it! I usually end up just walking around and looking at everything but it's definitely an all day thing if you want to look at almost everything. There's also a couple of other antique stores in the area that I love to visit (Sturbridge Antique Shops and Crompton Collective). Highly recommend going to either the May or September event though cause it gets ungodly hot in the summer. But with climate change who knows.
Love that green marble container and how unique it is! Don't know what it's for, but thought about you putting your Nespresso coffee pods in it 😆or maybe epsom salts in the bathroom 🤷♀ I also saw that Castlery is having their 4th of July sale and I was trying to find out in your past vlogs if you had a discount code for them 🙏
I am pretty sure it is an urn. Would not put food related products in it…even after a good clean or three. 👻
The wall behind you when you came in from flea market and sit down is showing green on Camera . Loved ur haul ! The green container looks like for ashes.
Regarding the green marble container with the screw top lid, I was thinking matches as well, or you could use it in the kitchen and put things like Chia seeds in there, or flaxseeds, or in the bathroom for q-tips, or extra double edge razors, or combs, or for little treats for Kinsley, or on your desk to hold pens/pencils, or perhaps insert a tall semi-narrow candle into it. Just suggestions.
Lol at Romeo’s face during the hike 😂😂
I like the green container with the screw lid. It would be lovely with fireplace matches with with the part that you light going up out of it and then the lid beside it on top of a fireplace mantle. I think it would be look very nice. I always enjoy each of your blogs.
MaCenna I think you should do whatever trim you plan on doing on the wall by the stairs on the opposite wall (shared with the kitchen) as well! To add interest but without art since you want to do a gallery wall up the stairs!
Oh the patterned paint rollers are to give a wallpaper pattern effect on walls usually here in uk 👍🏻
So fun! I ❤ all your finds.
😁😁"HUH! Look at His Ford Hat!!" You 2 are so fun!
I love Cha for Tea! and I love you guys!
Brimfield is amaaaazing! It will take you several days to see it all. Hope you go this year. Rooms book up early, so you may want to make some reservations you can cancel if necessary. Let us know and we’ll keep an eye out for you!
Thank you for sharing your life with us. I appreciate your talents and your love. From San Diego ❤️❤️❤️
I’m pretty sure the stone vessel is for salt , it will keep it from caking , so pretty and I LOVE the dark beams ❤❤❤
The Brimfield Flea Market is amazing! I've been a few times. It's huge and has great stuff. You'd love it!
The green jar would look great as a reed diffuser with some nice tall reeds👌🏼👌🏼
We have 2 reception rooms, one is our everyday sitting tv room and the other, we use when one wants to watch tv but the other wants to read. It’s nice to have a more calming space
Hi MaCenna, I know Brimfield very well. It’s actually in Massachusetts where I live. Best advice I have is be warned July will most likely be hot and humid with no shade, just open fields and a mile long at least. It is an antiquers dream, endless (lol). September is perfect.
Worth It!!!!! Can't wait for decoration video!!!
I freaking love that you post almost every day. I click instantly!
Brimfield is in MA. It’s fabulous you should go!! May, July, or September. Let us know so we can meet you lol
Ok Drew AND MaCenna posting on the same day. MaCenna first!
