That topper was literally the definition of something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue! 😂😂😂😂
hahahha literally!! you're totally right! the topper and I are married now hahahah or the topper and the house are married hahah
Yeah! I literally thought the same! 😂😂
Was going to put this 👍🤣
Exactly what I though!
The secret to a perfect marriage y'all
It truly fascinates me how this is basically a one woman show, I can’t believe you’re doing so amazing with all the Reno AND on top of that you’re uploading twice every week on both of your channels!! You inspire me to work as well and I couldn’t be more grateful for you and your videos and your positivity❤️I love everything you do, keep up the amazing work and take care of yourself!
thank you so much for your comment! I love what I do and love sharing this process with you guys! But im also so happy that all the hard work to make it happen doesnt go unnoticed! :)
When a woman has a goal, a vision, and a game plan there is no stopping her
Well said! Ditto!!
@@tkloveshair *I couldn't of said this better* 💕
@@XOMaCenna I was just wondering after completion, if you have an occasion 2-3 years later of family get together and I know this house is kind of your baby, how careful and discipline you will be maybe possessive we sometimes might become when someone spills something, scratches the paint of the wall.
0:16 in and I just wanna say how buying this house has not only been a testament to your top-notch professional design skills, but your storying telling has improved so much, and watched your channel feels like I'm following an interior designer podcast. so much entertainment and so proud of the journey you are on! thank you for sharing the way you do every week
thank you so much for your comment! That means to world to me!
I think i would have gone just a little bit wider for the trim in the middle, so that there the same amount of black showing all the way around the Windows! I absolutely looove your Color choices 🥰😍 it going to be the most amazing beforeafter ever
Thats what i was thinking, too!
Same thought… I love the look but think having the same reveal of black on the outside and middle will make it just that much better.
love this idea!
+
Wider and higher
Third Option: I think if the black visible around the window was equal… meaning the center trim board must be wider… it would look great!
I was thinking exactly the same thing. Just a little bit wider and it would look perfect.
I agree. It would look better if the grey mist board was wide enough to make the black trim the same width everywhere. Then it will be beyond perfect! 👍🏻👍🏻 🌺🌸
I agree, the windows look off center, or the right and left sides look wider then they should. Macenna, you are doing a fantastic job and you are very inspiring! I’m 51 and want to be more like you!! 😁
Agree 💯!
I agree as well!
Something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue! You just married your forever home!!!🥰🥰🥰
I love the trim between the black windows cream more than it being all black! BUTTTTT part of me thinks it should be even a little thicker so there is the same amount of black space on both sides of the window if that makes sense. It looks like there is about an inch of black on the outside of the windows, but then 3-4inches of black between the two. Idk if that makes sense. But I think it still looks fab too!! And I can’t see it from the street so idk what’s best lol you’re doing amazing 💕💕
that makes total sense! im going to try and put a thicker board up there and see! thank you!!!
Totally agree, was going to comment the same :)
@@XOMaCenna think that will defeat the purpose of making the 2 windows look like one window. It WILL make it look more like 2 windows if you prefer that.
MaCenna, you my brave & awesome girl. I LOVE it all. This NY girl is here for all of it! I wish I could fly to Texas to help you paint the house! Hey Romeo!
Romeo is sooo shy!!!! But we can tell how much he loves you and does for you!
This girl is not afraid of hard work. And McKenna, you have a natural knack for understanding construction….
The black middle pieces on the window throws off the symmetry of the black window trim, in my humble opinion. Love following this journey!
Continue doing what you're doing. You're my happy pill.
You should put the white wood in the middle of the windows but leaving the black the same width as the outer sides! That would make it perfectly aligned and simetric 💕
I'm loving your dream with the window 😍😍
Grey mist was amazing choice.
A pear tree...oh, you lucky girl. I love pear preserves. I can’t believe all the work you get done all by yourself. I love your paint color choices, and I love the Gray Mist painted board in the center of the black windows.
The topper piece you made is perfect the ‘marriage’ of materials; something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue ! It’s all there. Such a transformation from where you started. Good job. BTW I like the white trim board in the middle of the two windows.
i literally am so obsessed with your house videos, and literally love how wholesome and excited you get over everything!! ❤️❤️
Aww hahah thank you so much!
@@XOMaCenna Me too!!! I find myself waiting for them
*Im with you Erin, Im excited everytime! I click on all her videos faster then any other TH-camr videos*
Me too! I love her excitement and enthusiasm!
Don’t know if you’ll ever see this comment, but I’m from New Zealand so I get to see your videos first thing on a Monday morning (because of time differences). This is honestly the one thing I look forward to about Mondays. l wake up and have it playing while I’m getting ready for work. The best way to start my Monday morning! My husband and I just brought our first home. This reno project (and your many other videos) have inspired me so much! After 10yrs being together, my husband is finally understanding my obsession with op shopping (thrift shopping) and is more accepting of my obsession 😂
Thank you for making my Monday’s amazing!
Girl you work so so hard! It’s wonderful to watch your house transform - like watching a TV show every week. I love it!
Omg I loved seeing the camera coloring turned down! You weren’t washed out at all and the colors were more realistic! I know you want light and bright videos, but it’s often so washed out you can’t see anything sometimes (like when you were power washing the house, the top right corner was so washed out you couldn’t even see it)
the double window turns to a stunning look, so proud of you girl
girl you are literally one of the most inspiring people i have ever seen. i cant believe im here watching this unfold as it happens before you get your netflix series
Oh my god. is there anything you can't do?
Even when you can't do something right away, you're always so motivated and keep going until it's perfect. You are a real motivation MaCenna. 😍
Crazy!
I’m within you, Grey Mist!!! ❤️
I'm seriously amazed at how much you can do all by yourself. You are a natural. Like I'm jealous you are so good at this. Imagine if everyone had your patience, we would all be saving money fixing our homes lol. 🤍
Adding the grey mist center trim was so inventive and MADE that whole window unit. It looks perfect 😍
literally the perfect solution I cant imagine the window unit without it!
I have a window like this and I'm totally taking that center trim idea. It'll help a lot.
I love the grey mist trim centre too!
Definitely like the gray center trim for the dining window more; all black really makes that gap stand out!
The fact that you are taking the time to perfect the original window topper is amazing.
That interior window trim is AMAZING ! Thank you for saving it. The exterior dining window looks SO good as a double. You go girl !!
I'm here for the power washing content! And Momma Kathy with the ladder has me dying!!
Hi MaCenna, I love & wouldn’t miss your You Tube channels. You are an inspiration. Loving the journey of your cottage restoration! Your fabulous heading for the windows was genius. I was happy you chose to separate the windows with the lighter coloured board but found it difficult to understand why you made it narrow. It made the Black frames not RIGHT? My eyes found it difficult to not look at it without thinking it was a patch job…both windows from a distance looked wrong because of the narrower black on the far sides? A wider middle board would make the black frames all symmetrical … yep I drive myself crazy with this nonsense …just ignore me…you’re brilliant!
You are amazing! Your eye for design and your ability to make your vision a reality just blow me away! Love your Mama too…what a gem! 💕
Love what you and your hubby fixed the windows and Either way the black or the white are both good.
keep up the good work love the videos.
I definitely like the light trim in the middle… it’s SO PRETTY
You and your mom are unbelievable what you two can do !!!! 👍👍
What a star!! The attention to detail!!
Did anyone else notice the new extension is actually "something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue" how beautiful!!
All Black!! For sure 😊😊
Girl, that was an exhausting and ridiculously satisfying process for ME! I can only imagine what it was like for YOU!
🌺 ITS GOING TO BE THE BEST STORY TO SHARE WITH YOUR CHILDREN & GRANDCHILDREN AND EVEN BETTER, YOU HAVE IT ON VIDEO TO SHOW THEM ALL YOUR TRIALS, SHOPPING TRIPS, PAINT SAMPLES, EVERYTIME THEY LOOK AT A DOOR JAM OR A WINDOW. THEY WILL KNOW ALL THE LOVE , HEART, & DEDICATION, THAT WENT INTO BUILDING THIS AMAZING COTTAGE THAT THEY CALL HOME. SO SWEET 💕💕💕
So much to be done on your home but it will all pay off at the end where you and Romero will sit back and enjoy! GREAT JOB !! TFS
I can't wait every week to see your latest video. I fluctuate between being exhausted by all the energy you use and thinking ok, take a break rest! But then I get to the end and I want it to go on and on to see how everything turns out!
If you could bottle your enthusiasm, pacing and focus, y'all would be millionaires!
I love hearing your mama talk - my mother was from Texas, and when I hear that drawl it takes me back. She's been gone many years, but I still miss her. I know you will treasure your parents for as long as you have them:)
I'm deliberately not going back and reviewing vlogs I've already seen. My plan is to do a huge marathon view (around New Years, hopefully! ;) and see all from start to finish. This is a master class on how to tackle a huge job!
I'm so excited to see the before and after pictures 😊 its going to be a night and day difference and I just can't wait for the completed product to give me life! You're doing great, keep up the good work you strong, beautiful, independent woman you! ❤🥰
I like how you made lemonade out of lemons. I hope your contractor comped you for their errors. Don’t forget to add flashing to the top of your windows. I love your weekly updates! Keep them coming.
I think the white trim in the middle of the two windows looks amazing! Great choice
The window look amazing with the black and the white dove in the middle
The all ablack window looks much better to me than with the white middle board. It just looks more like a single unit. It's so inspirational the way you work so hard to get your vision.
White trim in the Center for sure!
It is a joy to watch your channel. You are amazing.
I was hoping you would choose Gray Mist.Both times we pick the same colors.Love it!
Grey mist looks so good with the house color and window color!! so beautiful!! I am absolutely loving this series btw!!🤍🤍🤍
Hopefully the cottage is ready before Christmas I just wait to see how u decorate it ❤️🤩.
🙏🏽 praying
Im crossing my fingers!!!!! still on track as of now! I cant wait to decorate for Christmas
@@XOMaCenna can't wait to see ur Christmas magic on the cottage 🤞🥰❤️
Your attention to detail is so admirable!!! Makes everything you do absolutely wonderful!!
I love the grey mist board between the two windows. Makes it more balanced in my eyes 😍
Looking great! Your momma is so sweet.
I am in awe of your carpentry skills!
The window looks amazing with the white middle piece. It's really makes it a statement piece
I guessed right! Grey mist. I love catching all the remodels on Sunday and in the vlog. You are making great progress. Good thing we have the guest cottages to do when this is done as you are going so fast.
You are killing it - very impressive! And, definitely the trim board in the middle with the trim color and not the black!
Your parents must be soooo proud of you MaCenna🤩 Amazing work on the topper. You are a hardworking perfectionist!
Sail cloth and grey mist! Both look perfect!
🌓Such a wonderful update, everything is coming together so good. Thanks for the update, looking forward to seeing more wonderful videos. Have a wonderful rest of the week. So proud of y’all. Much love to you 🙋🏾♀️💕😘👏🏾
I am more in awe of you with every video you make. The trim work is a piece of art!
The windows are perfection!
I love your relationship with your mom. Mine is in heaven so it always brings a smile to my face watching you two and your antics. 🤣😍😚🤗
I think others have said this but making that middle trim piece the same width as the trim on the outside of the windows would maybe help! But even if you don’t do that, it looks amazing - what a great dream! Lol. I am in constant awe of every little detail you put into every project you take on for this house. Amazing.
All of your videos on the cottage and ur weekly videos are my comfort🥰
I truly enjoy watching your progress. It's looking great! Kudos to your mom & dad for always being ready to step in to help. I know they're extremely proud of you.
Macenna, you are so beautiful by all means. I'm so obsessed with your videos, style and your relationship with your mother.
thank you so so much!
Definitely like the white in the center, it gives it dimension and separation, so beautiful!!! Makes me wanna renovate an old cottage now!! ❤️
You just radiate happiness enthusiasm MaCenna. As for being a perfectionist, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that. This has been your baby and you have overseen every stage of course it has to be perfect. The finished product has to look as great in person as it does in your head. I could never live with uneven windows or something out of place that would drive me absolutely crazy after all of the effort that would be just too frustrating. Anyway you have a great attitude progress over perfection is the perfect motto, and one that I have taken on so thank you. Everything you do is inspiration and motivation for me. I agree with the lady who commented below you’re basically a one woman show and you are absolutely brilliant. Oh and btw the trim down the middle of the windows with the Grey mist is 👩🍳 😘
The gray mist in the middle looks so good!
I like it light in the middle. Makes it more clearly two windows and also would be super cute with wreaths during Christmas.
Love the windows with the gray mist trim on the center. It’s starting to look like your vision. :)
That double front window is perfect! Always how it should have been. Tell me we get to see fox run too!!
I think the gray mist board in the center of the windows looks really nice !!!
Who else loves watching Macenna?
Out of all the channels I follow, yours is the one I look forward to most. You are doing an amazing job!
Girl how and world do we dream about projects although creative? Just funny!! Note book by the bed for those inspirational dreams.
I love the light trim detail in the middle 👨🍳💋
I really like both versions of the window. Either one will be beautiful.
Franken-topper!! It looks fabulous!
I love the black in the middle, it’s so perfect 😊
I love living this process with you I hope you make the house of your dreams
LOVE the windows and the topper!! It’s all looking so beautiful!!
EXCELLENT !!!!!!! Great Job, You are a SHERO FOR ME !
I love seeing one of your videos pop up in the notifications. I wait till the evening, when I have got all the chores done and truly sit back with a hot drink and some snacks and absorb the wonderfulness
Every week you impress me with your skills. Continued success on your renovations
You can do anything girl. So clever 😊
Grey mist center trim looks great and I love the trim topper. Awesome.
I love the brown colour on the table in the little boul
I love the topper! It adds the antique charm back to the cottage. I kinda wish you had mini versions for all your other windows because it's such a lovely feature. Also, yes to the light center piece between the windows. The black was too much, and I LOVE black. It's really coming together, I can almost picture window boxes full of flowers.
It’s coming together!!!!! 😆 I’m so excited!!!
You guys are all moving along soooo quickly. Just awesome awesome MaCenna :))
The gray mist center trim looks great!
I definitely like the window with the lighter piece in between! I’m so excited to see everything all finished, I can tell it’s gonna be so so good!
I love all black Window ❤️
I love being able to watch this project from beginning to end, and I know that all things will be finished!
Thank you so much!
I think the best part is the memories you making with your family
It's really coming to life! Great job on the trim and loving the black on the windows!
