It definitely helps that your mother in-law has such good taste in furniture and decor. She knows what she likes and collects lots of beautiful things in the specific style she likes so shopping her belonging for things to decorate with is both, much more meaningful and cohesive. Her home is turning out so beautifully. You guys are doing a wonderful job.
Today we went through the left over decor and started adding it to books and cranny’s (will show later in another video) and it was so fun. It’s kind of like a treasure hunt in the house!
Painting the ceiling was definitely the right call. It’s great to see what can be done for so little money but a lot of thought. Inspiring as always, thank you ♥️
When I was 18, I painted my tiny, dark bathroom ceiling with semigloss paint. I was stunned at how much brighter it was afterwards. Now I always use semigloss on bathroom and kitchen ceilings
@@SpaceMakerMethod I work at a fabric and craft store. Last Christmas I was ringing up a woman who said this year's colors don't work with what she already had, her reds weren't quite right. It is so silly to me to buy completely new everything because the shade is off. My family has been using most of the same ornaments and things since I was born in 2000
I agree! I think this is what sets TSD--and April--apart. Most other makeover channels can look similar, but your attention to their details is what makes it so unique. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks guys! I mean, let's be real, I'm V stubborn and always want to do it my way (my mother can confirm 🤪) but after working with more and more people I've realized that everyone has their own style and budget and it's much more rewarding to work within those guidelines.
Such lovely decor items you just had to shop for at home! Lucky you .. and your in laws! They must be loving it, and saving so much, living uncluttered and free! A very meaningful makeover indeed.
I know right!?? Most toothbrushes are so expensive. I love this one. That was Jackson’s I was showing (I replaced mine like his) and I’m going to get one for him too. Now that I have a sleek black one on the counter I hate looking at his 🤪 (but also it’s super old and gross). I really do swear by electric toothbrushes!!
TRUE! I used to have one electric toothbrush that cost me more than a hundred bucks and did not even last for 2 years, the battery is just worn out and required very frequent charging🥲
Typically,when you have two shower curtains,the plastic one stays inside and the pretty cloth one hangs outside of the tub. (hides the tub and doesn’t get wet and grungy on the bottom,don’t have to wash it as often.)🥰
I love the new look. Greenery is always a good choice! But I loved the dressing table and the fish mirror, hopefully they find a new spot in the house.
Love the wall pocket and baskets. As great as the cabinet was it was wrong for that bathroom. And isn’t it amazing all the small stuff that’s in most bathrooms? I get overwhelmed and want to throw it all out.
It's shocking how much gravitates to bathrooms! And I agree, the vanity was beautiful but too big for this space. Everyone is much happier with the openness of it now.
Bravo! It’s perfect & I really love the little incidental touches that peak out at you ( the little bird in the plant). I’m not sure what it is, but the music reminded me of something from the late 70’s…sent me to a happy place! Looking forward to your next video!
Oh thank you so much! And she has lots of those little details throughout the house, things she's collected over the years, so it's nice to let them have a place. Thanks for watching!
It turned out really nice. The only thing I didn't like as much are the now black and with light switches and plugs. I think they would look nicer completely black.
Good grief, I'm so glad you got the cabinet out of there, dont we all have enough of our own stuff without having to store other people's lol. This past week I took your advice and managed to get almost everything off my bathroom floor, wow what a difference. We have been renovating our entire house since moving in, but hubby is a builder but not a plumber or electrician. He can do the basics but as we know bathrooms need more than that. To make a long story short, we need to add a bathroom then renovate our only 1. So, not for a couple of years. We did change the medicine cabinet fortunately. So, I've been psyching myself up to paint the cabinets. I cannot take anything outside, way too much snow, and the body will only allow me very short bursts of work. (Crps) I have beautiful knobs but I'm not happy with the cabinets. Oh, please tell me you have a 17" toilet? I know you're tall and for us average height fold, it was a life changer so I can just imagine how it would be for you. Sorry for the babble, I could keep going but it's a book already lol. Lots of love 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
Oh man, they've talked about replacing that toilet... it's sooo short! But that's not within budget now. But at least they have the taller one in the water closet. And I feel ya on the cabinets, it's so rainy here that's one reason we decided against it because we just didn't have time to wait for them to dry and the weather. I hope your bathroom gets settled quickly and I'm glad it's starting to feel better!
Love your videos! Here some critique: In this series something is annoying. I believe it is the music. It is rather loud and unbelievably repetitive. It's probably just me. But watching the progress and the end results is worth hitting the mute button all the time, so not to miss when you are saying something.
I really like what you've been able to do for your in-laws and for your parents (I watched that series prior to this one)! But I just want to say, and I know you had said painting isn't your favorite, but the order you paint kind of drives me nuts. 😫 Cutting in should always be done first bc if you don't then you see your brush marks over what has been rolled. And a ceiling actually should always be done before painting walls bc it speckles when you do it. So for future projects keep these steps in mind... 1. Cut in the ceiling, don't worry about getting it on the walls bc you'll paint over that. 2. Roll the ceiling. 3. Paint the trim everywhere; again, don't worry about getting it on the walls bc it will be painted over. 4. Cut in the walls!! 5. Roll the walls. 👌🏻 I'm really not trying to be snotty, but I have painted many many rooms over the years and have learned from experience the best order. 💕
Hello, Just found this video from your mother-in-law's series. Love how your incorporated the Longaberger baskets with the floral lining motifs; just the right "pop" of color! Enjoy your new home in Europe!!🌺
I was so excited to look up that label maker after you said it was the best $25 you ever spent. Here in Canada, it is $89.77. Wow. Not the first time I realized that either we Canadians are being gouged or somebody is making a lot of money the easy way but it is irritating to say the least. Great job on the bathroom, April.
I'm a mom, love what you are doing at your inlaws home as well as what you are doing at your moms. They will love and cherish everything forever. However, the fact thst you and your husband are going so far away afterwards will make them miss you more because every inch of their homes have your and your husband's fingerprints. Meaning, your decorating styles, your DIY's in every room. I don't know how will they manage to live on a day to day basis looking at every space in their house thst will remind you and him. Sort of bitter sweet memories. Other than that, they will be comfortable and very happy with the new look of their home.
What’s even better than the clear plastic boxes are the clear plastic drawers. They look like little dressers,usually three drawers.(various sizes) That way,you don’t have to bend down to peer in and pull a box out of the middle of a stack.(especially as you get older)😖 I have them under my bathroom sinks and bottom section of the linen closet (I use the wheels that come with them in the linen closet and just roll them partway out) And like your boxes,you can pull the whole drawer up onto the counter to care for a task like hair cutting or first aid,etc.😁
I definitely agree on adding greenery in each room! 👍🏻 It for sure lifts moods. I like to find just the right faux piece for each room bc I don't want to have to worry about keeping a plant alive and don't want to constantly be buying flowers.
The door handles on the bathroom door look so great, worth thst investment. :) I took down shelving in my own space, and found a suitable bakers rack thing that's " not deep " but has shelving and I discovered it is more useful than wall shelving. It can hold pretty trays, baskets deep enough to hold bath items I use ,body lotions, etc . Much more useful for me. Of course, it's personal choice. I liked the shelves I had, but with a narrow rack, it's more useful. Yes, paint ceilings white- white . Good job ! I'm glad to see " shopping the home decor " , because it's good to save certain items, and those look nice in the room .
I did like the colour scheme brought into the bathroom - a change is as good as a holiday. It was a perfectly good little bathroom - I kept thinking if I had a house with a bathroom like that, I wouldn't mind it one bit. But, yes, a lick of paint to keep up with the rest of the house - and some of those lovely ornaments used - I particularly liked the little wall vase for some reason - I think because it gave off 1930's glamour looks and I'm a bit in love with that look right now. I thought it look spruced up and freshened and that's just what you want.
It definitely helps that your mother in-law has such good taste in furniture and decor.

Well done! Looks great! I think it’s great that you do the makeovers in their style rather than just how you would have it in your own house.

With every room we get through their hosue feels so much lighter!
Thanks April for loving and sharing our TRUTH series toothbrush!🤍Try out the brush and give your teeth a "makeover" too! 🦷🦷🦷
Bahaha that’s so true! The makeover that keeps in giving! I love the sleek black one💛💛💛
MIL: don’t worry about the ceiling, it’s white.
April: my white paint says otherwise.
Another great redo!
🤣I knew it cold be whiter!
Great job! So clean & fresh!
Take a MAGIC MARKER TO THE SCREWS in the electrical plates.
🤪
April this was so thoughtful. Nice and calming space.
Thank you 💛💛💛
The new toothbrush is worth a try, looks simple and clean, exactly my aesthetic. I'm surprised the price is so affordable

I love the new look. Greenery is always a good choice! But I loved the dressing table and the fish mirror, hopefully they find a new spot in the house.
The vanity is going back to the person it belongs too because they don't have space to store it anymore, but the fish will definitely find a home.
Love the wall pocket and baskets. As great as the cabinet was it was wrong for that bathroom. And isn’t it amazing all the small stuff that’s in most bathrooms? I get overwhelmed and want to throw it all out.

Great job! That bathroom looks like it is twice as big and very stylish.
It feels soooo much bigger!

Lovely! Such great kids to your parents. :)
We help each other 💛
It turned out really nice. The only thing I didn't like as much are the now black and with light switches and plugs. I think they would look nicer completely black.
We may go back and paint those little screws later when all the rooms are done💛💛
Another great video, I agree with trying out where to put things, it takes awhile. What a gift you have given the parents!
💛💛💛
I love that idea of working with what you have. Great job!
💛
This one wasn’t my style but I was surprised how much difference painting and removing the extra vanity made.

I so agree on bright white ceilings. It’s a must for me and it’s makes all the difference in the world! It’s very uplifting as well.
Feels soooo good!
I can’t imagine any of my kids helping me with this huge project. It really speaks to the kind of humans you and your husband are. ❤
Love your videos!

Looks super but hope you stop back to put up “grab bars” near tub….They aren’t beautiful but soooo necessary!
Luckily they don't need those now, but I think in the future they want to renovate the bathroom and add a walk in shower.
Wow! Beautiful, looks like a spa and you didn't break the bank. Thank you for your inspiration. Thank you to your mom for inviting us into her home.
You are so welcome!
Love the bird hook!
Isn't that just so cute!?
Looks great! She has so much nice decor and art. It must be fun to help her! 😊
I love it. So fresh and pretty ❤️
💛
Thank you for not stinting on the after shots.
I really like the way the bathroom turned out. You are so good at what you do. Love your videos. I'm always looking forward to you latest one.
Thank you so much! Thanks for watching! 💛
Te as olvidado cambiar alfombras del baño
I love that dresser what a beautiful piece!!!!
Aren't the legs so pretty!?
Would love to see the vanity painted the same color as the door too. Great job!
me too! wish we could have!
Just outstanding. I love, love the colors.
Thank you 💛
Bathroom turned out great!
thanks for watching!
Very pretty. Right choice painting ceiling. Always do all the areas makes it fresh.

She had alot of beautiful things, but wow look so much better on the lighter walls! Great job and here's to many more!
Wow the black contrast against the "greige" is such an upgrade! Great work!
Looks so much better. Neat, organized and relaxing
Beautiful
Looks so good. Love it. 👍💕
Thanks for watching and commenting 💛
Lovely! I bought those same bird hooks also. :)
Really lovely for your in-laws
Thank you 😊
What is the wall paint color?
Perfect Greige by Sherwin Williams
I did like the colour scheme brought into the bathroom - a change is as good as a holiday. It was a perfectly good little bathroom - I kept thinking if I had a house with a bathroom like that, I wouldn't mind it one bit. But, yes, a lick of paint to keep up with the rest of the house - and some of those lovely ornaments used - I particularly liked the little wall vase for some reason - I think because it gave off 1930's glamour looks and I'm a bit in love with that look right now. I thought it look spruced up and freshened and that's just what you want.
She has a few of those little wall vases we still need to incorporate! But isn’t it great what some paint can do!!?!
Small bathroom caught my attention. But this bathroom is twice the size of my one and only bathroom. Space is very limited.
haha I guess that's American suburban size for ya
"I really enjoy your fusion of fashion and design..." I am DYING that was so funny
🤪🤣
Two words, amazing and inspirational!
Beautiful ❤️👍🏼😉🇨🇦
It was so nice of you to make the bathroom livable over the weekend. Living in a construction zone is stressful.
So stressful!
Your in-laws are so fortunate to have such a talented son & daughter-in-law! Great job! 🙌🏻
💛 it’s been a fun project!
Every room looks so beautiful when you finish them...
Thank you!
Big Inhale…Buy yourself some flowers. ❤️

Where is the kitchen makeover video?
Oh man, it's still coming. Family stuff just came up and delayed a few final steps before we can film it, but it will be posted eventually. 🤪
I am so excited to watch. This is so inspirational to see the transformation.
I love this series! And as always, I love your method and style!
Thank you!! More episodes coming soon… we still have a kitchen to show! 🤪💛
Pretty stunning!
Lovely Love! Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for watching 💛
I love it !
Somehow I knew greige would reappear! Great looking bathroom!
Bahaha and if you need some we still have an extra 5 gallon tub of it 🤣
@@SpaceMakerMethod Let me tell you, I can’t throw stones in glass houses because most of my apartment is white and beige 😂 Wheige? 🙃
very beautiful 😍
Thanks for watching! Hope you’re having a good week!
Absolutely stunning
Thank you! Cheers!
Looks great.
Thanks!
Nice job.
Thanks Judy!
Lovely!!!
Thank you 💛
IZZY!
