This is what pure dedication looks like! From self-taught carpenter to creating these stunning transformations - your journey is incredibly inspiring. The attention to detail in every room is just amazing!
This video gave me literal CHILLS!! To see a woman doing this solo really has inspired me. I have been doing things little by little in our place, but haven't felt quite confident enough to do 99% of the things you are doing here. I know there are TH-cam videos but I get scared that I might royally mess it up. Thanks for giving me a boost of confidence that I can do this solo as a woman!!!
Wow, I can't believe what I just watched! This shows us the highs and lows of renovating their entire home without any professional help. It's a rollercoaster journey filled with learning experiences and impressive transformations.
I feel your pain, I bought a 3000 sq ft house on 3/4 acre for $15k, it had holes in the roof, water poured in, the smell and mold! My buddies helped me rebuild it, had to replace all the floors with 3/4 " plywood, I live here now and love it, all paid off!
I’m so interested in doing this. How did you find the home for so cheap? Is there a website? I would really love to own 2 homes and put my personal stamp on one.
@@J-W.- Found it on craigslist. It's in a town where the main industry left for Mexico so avg income is low. We got a new mayor who balanced the books for the first time in 30 yrs, brought in natural gas, fixed the water and sewer, got new tractors and trucks. Hispanics have been moving in here in droves and fixing up the properties, it's great!
Hi . @sharonpaul912 , I found it on craigslist, located in an African American community 1 hr south of Chicago. There are many small towns in the USA where the industry that formed them have left, leaving the town impoverished. Land prices have since skyrocketed from when I purchased the place.
You have a great gift in redoing old houses and your ideas are amazing! I like how you reuse cabinets and other things to create something new. You are definitely not afraid to tackle anything. And it always comes out looking awesome!
As a retired electrician I am amazed at what you took on and accomplished , and you sure should be proud of yourself. "Courage over confidence" is a great motto and I am going to pinch it. Greatest respect from Australia.
You are one amazing and talented young lady and very strong and determined. Your ability to go though so many challenges and over come them really paid off very well. Your own artwork is really a very nice extra touch. I am sure the previous owners would be shocked (in a good way) if they saw what you did.
Looks beautiful! And I loved the encouragement from your comments. I’m an older lady & I’m on a journey to learn how to build things so I found that encouraging. 😊
So proud of you. I’ve learned so much from you. Your inspiration is immeasurable. “Courage over confidence”, you should copyright protect that motto! Seriously. I can see how courage over confidence can help get a person unstuck. A lack of confidence, (stemming from a lack of knowledge/experience) can be paralyzing. Seizing courage and Doing in spite of apprehension, opens one up to learn, succeed, and gain confidence. Then repeat. Your kids and husband are so blessed to have you. This concept is more than DIY, it’s life skills.
This is so inspiring, and you should be SO proud! "When I don't know how to do something I research and teach myself". YES GIRL! You have given me the confidence to pursue more home projects. My husband and I will be buying a house soon, and I was worried about my abilities to tackle home DIIY renovations, but you have showed me how possible it is with the right work ethic and courage. You're amazing, and the house turned out BEAUTIFULLY!
You are more capable than you can even comprehend right now, I’ve surprised myself again and again. You just need courage to start, tenacity to keep going after mistakes, and humility to learn.
Sra. Melissa: Tiene toda la razón de estar orgullosa de lo que hizo con esa casa!! He seguido todos sus videos desde que inició la remodelación y puedo decir en cada paso hizo gala de sus conocimientos constructivos y su exquisito sentido de la estética. Bravo!!! Bendiciones para usted y su familia.
Amazing home reno! It was incredible to see how much work went into every aspect of the renovation, from tearing down walls to installing new fixtures. Kudos!
“i have a real passion for home design and would spend hours at night laying in bed thinking of color combinations, build plans, and design ideas.” You just described the last 2 years of my life. i just subscribed.
I found you at the beginning of this remodel and I am even more impressed now than when I started watching this journey. You are so talented with a really great design eye. I agree 100% that DIY takes courage and you clearly have that in spades. I can't wait to see what you tackle next and thanks for inspiring us with your "DIY guts"!
The workmanship and creativity are amazing. You have inspired so many of us to tackle those home projects we have not had the Courage to do. DIY Princess
I started watching your channel about the time when you first started the reno.Everything you have done has been amazing. But my first at the top of my list,is the dark and scary closet. That you worked a miracle.no how to directions..you just figured it out on your own.The very cool one of a kind built in dresser was the coolest design ever. When I say this and I'm being serious. You are on the same pedestal as the DIY WIFE. I'm not kidding. You are amazing. Looking forward to seeing more of your amazing creations. Thank you so much for sharing. 👍😁🎄🎅🦌🤶
The interior is soo beautiful and classically stylish, it has a natural Scandinavian feel that brings life to the space. Then the exterior is painted grey.
I admire you tenacious desire to learn how to do the work! You did an excellent job. I really liked the gray ceiling, very clever. Can’t wait to see what you do next.
I stumbled upon reno video and was amazed by what I saw. Your dedication to renovating their entire home by themselves over two years is truly inspiring. From transforming the kitchen to revamping the bathrooms, it's incredible to witness the before-and-after transformations and pick up some DIY tips along the way.
Amazing and inspiring result. Really enjoyed the series. I could not pick a favorite room, but the kitchen transformation was outstanding. And the living room, too.
Wow!!!I am amazed of all the renovations you have done, you inspired me so much!!! Thank you for sharing, my favorite room is the kitchen and the bathroom
You really touched every part of the home to make it yours. What a reminder that a little bit of hardwork can really result in something you've dreamed of.
Great vision and tenacity! Loved the recycling of trim and kitchen cabinets!! My favorites are the wood wrap accent in the bedroom, your awesome range hood, quality bathroom renovation, and your stunning office ceiling design and fabrication!!! I would love to walk your project, just to see your attention to detail on your painting alone. I can imagine that it's nearly perfect. I always strive for perfection in construction, but we are the only ones that can actually show others that Oops 😊
Absolutely loved this series…I’ve watched every video and A++ work for every single project! PS, the living room/fireplace room was my favorite part of the renovation.
OMG it looks SO awesome! You did SUCH a great job. Seeing your design style has given me some inspiration , as i am updating and repairing my home . My home sits on the shore of a very large lake as well.. keep it up
Amazing!!!!!!!!!!! Resizing the window, that came out awesome. It is funny how something like resizing a window seems so simple then it becomes something so huge. good job.!!! Looking forward to more videos.

Well done, everything looks incredible, I think the beams in the living room and the kitchen are my fave but that bathroom turned out so beautiful too and were my favorite video to watch.
Wow so inspiring to see you take on such a big project and do such an amazing job! I've watched the whole series but to see it all together was awesome. I hope you celebrate what a huge success this project was :)
I love the kitchen, I would have kept the two white "garden" chairs and the table for the dining room or to eat outside in the summer, they are great. You did an amazing job. I like also the grey color of the house outside and the red door.
Woman, damn! I'm almost speechless with what you have done...and self taught by youtube videos? Wow, amazing! I really love what you did and youtube for being such a great source of knowledge and inspiration...you want to learn how to do something? There's always someone who teaches it on youtube! I just started to do things around the house instead of asking people to come do it, not do it that well and asking huge amounts for it...but never thought I could reach your level...maybe one day I can :) thank you for sharing!
You’re soooo talented!! You did an amazing job it all looks absolutely beautiful 😍 it’s hard to pick one room but I guess I will go with the living room as being my favorite ❤️ I love how you used the old doors and trim as well!! You are blessed with many gifts, God bless and keep up the awesome work!! 🥰❤️
Thanks for sharing. I spent weekends last few months and went thru similar path you took. I hope someday i can teach my daughter such she can enjoy making her own place
Muy buena reforma de la casa . Un trabajo muy arduo y pesado, pero bien valió la pena el resultado final. Felicitaciones y que la disfrutes por muchos años! ❤👍😍👏👏👏👏

The previous owners have both passed, but two of their children saw the transformation and cried with joy. 🥲 it was shocking to them for sure!

I so miss doing this, I did it for years and always loved the difference from start to finish. You are a mans dream wife.
That was a meticulous remodel! I love the faux beams you added to the living room. So many DIY projects come up way short of this.
Thank you! The beams were absolutely my favorite part as well, transformed the whole room!
Amazing home reno! It was incredible to see how much work went into every aspect of the renovation, from tearing down walls to installing new fixtures. Kudos!

Kitchen. Plus I enjoyed how much you repurposed from the kitchen for the kitchen
It looks amazing, congrats! Also love how the house is divided into rooms and how practical it is
I love your comments about courage to try things you've never done. What a great learning experience this project was. Great job!
What an amazing remodeling! I'm so impressed by your hard work and dedication to making their house a beautiful, personalized space.
I really like the look overall, but my favorite is the kitchen. I know you reuse those cabinets. I’m hoping I can do something similar with mine.
