    Laura and Ollie, you have performed a miracle with that bedroom. It's amazing what a tin of white paint and fantastic taste can do for a room. Honestly, your house updates are now my favourite things to watch on TH-cam. They're addictive, just like a good book, you can't wait to read the next chapter and I never want it to end. Just as well it's a big house and I could be 'reading' for a while. Brilliant job.

    I was a little bit confused in the earlier videos when you said that you were making it a bedroom, but now hearing that you are renting it out, it makes total sense! Good luck on the rest of the renovations and please keep us updated!! Love all the videos you do

    @madamg612 5 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    What a stunning transformation! You must be so proud of what you’ve both achieved with this tranquil, light and airy space (and what a very lucky lodger!). Just as an aside it is tar which causes the yellow staining in smokers’ homes, not nicotine (which itself is odourless and colourless). You have done so well to remove all traces. Looking forward to seeing the rest of your beautiful home develop my darling. 💖💖💖

    • @debbiem9104
      @debbiem9104 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I just looked this up on google, cigarettes smoke is yellow from nicotine and tar. Meaning both contribute to the stain

You two should be VERY proud. You’ve worked very hard. Can’t believe you were undaunted by the state of this house & had the extraordinary & RARE ability to see its lovely bones & well disguised potential. WELL DONE YOU‼️ 👌😃 Oh...and love the armoire! Thank you for mentioning the paint colour. Can you tell me if it’s clear wax over the paint? I literally JUST bought the same paint for a large vintage chest of drawers & would love to know if I bought the right wax!! 👍😉😊 Thank you!!!!

It is so impressive what you've done with the space! Maybe one day in the future it will be an office (or even playroom)!!

I like watching your videos because it is like watching those home makeovers on the HGTV channel. I can wait to see what you both decided to make the 3rd level into. Keep up the great videos!!

    Beautiful. Just a suggestion about nicotine stained walls. My mother and uncle used to do a lot of re modeling they would add a tea spoon of good quality clear peppermint oil to the paint and mix really well. Not only makes it bearable to be in the room while painting smells great and no nicotine smell.
