So sorry about the late upload! Has been uploading for hours 😫 for those wondering about budgeting, I’m hoping to post something separate with those details as to not take away from the excitement of this vid! Thank you all so much for the support, stay tuned for more house/DIYs 💛
I still wish TH-cam had a “love” button! Wow wow wow! Their reactions were so worth the wait and you didn’t such an incredible job!! You should be proud!!
This was an amazing job. I have been checking so often for this video. It would be pretty difficult to be mean to your parents. You did an amazing job and should be so proud. This was such a feel good series to watch, thank you for the reveal video.
I've been following this on tiktok. You did such an amazing job for your parents and you can tell they really just loved all your hard work! Looking forward to seeing more of your projects!!
Your parents did a GREAT job raising you!!!!! You will be a GREAT mom one day! Congratulations on all your success!!! You should open a GoFundMe for your next project just as a test run 😉
Believe it or not I didn't even see the comment or even made to the last part but I already was thinking like her dad gonna be like oh I'm glad you chose this as a career I was so wrong lol
Your dads “i thought you were just painting walls” and his “i didn’t know you could do all this” the pure proudness in his voice. Ugh. Goosebumps! Please come to Indiana and design my room for me 😂
This is all looks so amazing i cant wait to see what u do next I've been to see their reaction and they loved so much just as much as i did keep doing what u luv
They were both so impressed, I don't think they really could take in all of it at once. Would love if you guys continue and your parents help too. I think they would love it.
you gave them the best gift ever; not a new house, but seeing their daughter nail a transformation and know that she has found her vocation, you are inspiring
This!!! As a mom, I know how something like this would just knock my socks off if my kid did this. Seeing your child excel at something that makes them happy AND they’re good at?? The ultimate gift ❤️
“I had no idea you could do all this!” That got me. Parents often still see their kids as kids in so many ways even once they’re grown up. You guys did SO MUCH work! Your parents’ house is HUGE! Jeez, there are so many rooms!
Absolutely true. My kid is only 10, but every day he surprises me with the things he knows and does. I still think of him as a small two year old who needs help with the potty.
I love that the before is all very like a family house that raised kids and was well lived in and now it’s been renovated to fit their needs and to freshen up their already loved house with so many memories.
I thought the same. I feel like it was more noticeable in some rooms, like the trophy room shows just how much they loved and cared for their daughters and children and now that their past that they have this cozy and intimate space that they will most definitely use a lot more than what it used to be 🥰🥰 Love how the spaces around us frow with us
“on a tight budget” ?!?! THIS IS ON A TIGHT BUDGET FOR YOU? I could only imagine how gorgeous you’d design something if you had no budget and were given all the money you needed to fund the project. I was truly baffled when I saw the before and afters, woah. You did an amazing job and It makes all our hearts warm seeing how happy you made your parents! You’re such an awesome daughter to them! 💖
@@JAB1979 In another video, she explains that she sold the old furniture for the new stuff, and spent ~$1,000 over what they profited off the old stuff.
So touching! Your dad is in constant disbelief and at the same time so so proud of you & your mom is full of thanks and gratitude. I bet they can't wait to have guests over and tell them "my daughter DID this, could you believe it??!" "How awesome is this, look😊" Not to mention your awesome boyfriend! Bless you guys✨✨
Your parents seem like those top tier parents that put all of their love and energy into their family. It was really beautiful to watch them receive something this special in return.
I thought the same thing, not a lot of people are lucky enough to have two loving parents hell I don't even have one 😅 I'm sure she knows how lucky she is ❤️
I found you on accident throughout TikTok and literally stalked everything. Cause I was amazed and just as involved with your projects like everyone else. I was living for it From the beginning to the end. I think you really need a show. Cause I would have never thought of all the cool things you did to create these beautiful spaces. Hats off to you and your boyfriend or hubby. You guys rocked. And seeing you parents appreciate and share there happy tears was the icing on the cake!!! I can’t wait to the next renovation episode!!!👀👀👀💕💕💯🙌🙌🙌
Ivan Poldrugač and by replacing all of the flooring in the house, making custom built ins, adding a patio, refinishing the cabinets, changing the layout, etc. It is actually very impressive especially given the budget and timeline they had to work on
I love how your dad is more proud of you than he is of the house itself. “I didn’t know you could do all this!” Made me cry!! Great job the house looks beautiful!
I’m so sorry you had to ask people to be respectful of your parents in the comments...they’re clearly amazing people to have raised a daughter like you. Wonderful job you did on the house! Congratulations you’re going to be so successful in your field!!
I just.. I can just imagine the.. lightness your mom and dad feels. The house was so cluttered and dark and I felt anxious seeing it like that. Now it is so clean and bright and open and I can just imagine how good that has to feel, coming home to that. That's something I would have loved to do for my mom. She was so depressed at the end, this may have helped her so much! I am so happy you could do this for your parents. You are such a kind hearted person!
You've definitely found your calling with designing and making beautiful, functional pieces from used furniture. You need your own show. All the shows on hgtv are people with big budgets. This is great because you're showing people they can be happy with what they have, with the right interior design, some ingenuity and without spending thousands and thousands of dollars.
The last line “I thought you were just painting the walls” Love these emotional videos. My parents have their mortgage paid but spend their money on us kids. I’ve been lucky enough to earn enough secretly to give them $500,000 to retire with. I can’t wait to see their reaction
Hey girl! Professional interior designer here - you should be so so proud of all this work you have done. The biggest challenge in design is when clients have a tight budget, and not only were you able to transform their space into something more beautiful and more practical, you did it on a tight budget IN A MONTH?!? It’s truly amazing. When I was in college I used to help guide my parents through some renovations and I think just our laundry room remodel took a whole summer 🙈. Such a wonderful gift for your parents, great job
@@lilliangross3373 yeah, but I think when people say "professional interior design" like in this case, they mean they have experience working on the field not that they studied it, I don't think they were throwing shade or anything
@@lilliangross3373 Hi Lilian, based on her website and videos I thought she was still an interior design student! I am not throwing any shade, she did an amazing job! :)
I remember scrolling on my FYP and coming across a video about a girl wanting to transform their parents house. I remember always coming back to see if there were any updates. This is sooo awesome, thank you for sharing the experience with us!
Everything is so beautiful but what makes it so much more special is that you did it with love . You can see the genuine excitement and gratitude they had for your work . Hoping I can do something like this for my parents after all the stuff that they have done for me
When a daughter is that grateful and honring her parents with her talents this channel is worth to subscribe! Keep it up being humble and you will go so far! Congrats!
I agree! This video just randomly appeared in my YT feed today (along with a bunch of junky makeup channels?!? that I immediately nuked.) The title and thumbnail looked intriguing - I love transformations, reveals, etc. - so I clicked. So glad I did! What a delightful family. And the boyfriend sounds like a keeper, too. Anyway, I’m subbing now 😁
Ahhh! When your mom said “this must have been so much work!” That hit me! So happy for your parents and for all the success you’ve had! Keep making people’s days! ❤️
This also adds SO much to the property value. If they ever decide to sell their home, all of these updates mean SO much. A frugal house flip can add THOUSANDS to the value of this home (I can't imagine them selling this though. It obviously means so much to them!)
The before pictures show a home that was completely for their children. All the trophies, ribbons, all the different gear for activities, sport, and music to give their kids a well-rounded life. You can tell they have been all about the family. It's so lovely that you're giving them a fresh start, now that the kids have flown the nest, for them to enter the next phase of their life with a beautiful home. Great job!
“I had NO idea you could do all this; it’s amazing!” Your Dad’s words are priceless. Your Mom’s tears were so real and you could tell how appreciative they both were! It makes me so proud for them and for YOU! You are very talented!!!
Ha your parents said “sure go ahead remodel” because they thought you were just painting walls lol You and your boyfriend are extremely skilled and talented 😍 beautiful and stunning results 💖
The redesigns are amazing , but honestly, what overwhelmed me was to see the love between you and your parents. So much work is a clear labor of love, and to see them enjoy the finished product was so satisfying. What a beautiful family. You are a great daughter ❤️!
I will personally fight anyone that has something mean to say to your parents. 👀🤷🏼♀️ You can see their love for you throughout this whole video, it is truly heartwarming! Their genuine reactions are priceless. ❤️
Ok, when dad said "I thought you were just painting walls!" (or something along the line) I literally spat my coffee 😂😂😂 But it was so precious, you can see that he's in a constant state of amazement. So pure 💖 You did an AMAZING job, and like other people said - you added so much value to the property. But the best thing is you provided such a clean, free space for your parents. And you can see how happy they are 💖
Felix Felicis altough I’m happy you realise something is wrong, make the effort to get your relationship back. If possible live close to eachother. Familly is the most important in our life.
Ivy Kalinin No its not ok. Parents are the most important figure in the life of a person, and it is proven that bad relationship with parents affects the child very negatively
Timor Eran Averbuch obviously it affects the child negatively, but some people have toxic parents and having them in our lives would do more harm than good. Everyone can’t have a great relationship with their parents and it shouldn’t be on the child to fix the relationship. The best thing is to surround yourself with people who love you and have your best interest whether you’re blood related or not.
The best line at the end..."I thought you were just painting walls!" 😂. You're a great person for doing that for your parents. They were clearly thrilled! The house looks amazing!
I literally in tears. The pride and appreciation that your parents had for your work is just wonderful. You did an awesome job. I’m proud of you and today is the first time I’ve seen any of your vids on TH-cam! Wow!!!
She has so much talent holy cow. Her parents are tooooo cute, this is really something special!!! Can’t wait for a video of the rest of the house !! Love love love
I have absolutely loved watching this process on TikTok-I can’t wait to see more! You and your boyfriend did an incredible job. You can see the pride in your parents eyes, it was so beautiful to watch! They seem so sweet and deserving of this. ❤️
I'm 28, a parent to two young children, & it's so inspiring to see so much love between child & parents. I hope I can inspire that same love & devotion into my own children. Beautiful, beautiful job. Such a sweet gesture. 💗
One thing that helps children learn to love and respect their parents is if you show them how you love and respect your own parents. Trust me, seeing how their parents treat the grandparents leaves a lasting impression on children.
When your mom started crying at the living room reveal, that was it for me. Tears for the whole video. But seriously, you did a phenomenal job- the house is GORGEOUS! I dream to have a house so pretty one day! For your budget and timeline, it is incredibly impressive. The fact that your boyfriend worked beside you, he is a keeper! Your parents seem like the sweetest people. This was such a beautiful gift that you gave to them♡ I can't wait to watch you on HGTV soon! This just made my day!
I’d like to say I started watching you and following you on TikTok. You guys did an amazing job We are so impressed, yes we, by the way I work for HGTV.
I would watch her show 100% I already got so many good ideas just from the channel! It’s such a good way to promote recycling and reducing waste through diy upcycling projects like this one! So helpful and entertaining 🏡❤️
I came back to watch this again months later because I just love your parents reactions. You can see how much this meant to them and how in love they were with all of your choices. You can really see how proud your dad is of you, like the proud of you feeling that only a dad can give a daughter. My dad passed two years ago and we had a bad falling out and I never got to reconcile with him before he died so this was really special for me to see. Your parents seem like such genuine, good people. What a great, beautiful gift this must have been to give them 😊
As a parent, I had tears. You are their daughter and you blew them away. They were so grateful and so proud and it is every parent's dream to see their child soar. But even more special because you poured your talents back into your two biggest champions and the two who have poured so much into you. What a blessing all around. Thanks for sharing this with us all!
Okay few things: 1. You’re parents are freaking adorable. 2. You should be so proud of all you got done in such a short period of time. 3. I cannot wait to see what you do with the other rooms in the house!!
I truly enjoyed watching every part on TikTok and this final reveal. I don’t know you but I’m sooo PROUD of you! You are parents are amazing, they raised you well.
I don't really understand when someone say their parents raise them well? Human are very capable of learning things by themselves? And a lot already comes with a personality. I wouldn't say her parents raised her well I definitely think she was very loved and supported that's why she love her parents so much in return. What u think?
“I thought you were just painting walls” 🥺🥺 he was so impressed by both of your talent and creativity. It all came out incredible! You have such a great career ahead of you
Emily, what you did for your parents cannot be properly articulated with mere words. It’s the hope that every parent has, that one day all of the love, teaching, training, and sacrifices we made would one day be on display. What a dream come true!
Your dad when he said "I wanna make a fire" when he was sat in his new porch was the most wholesome thing! I've loved following this project so much! Such a lush reveal!
I stumbled upon your video by accident, and I'm so glad I did. You are the best daughter ever! You did such an amazing job transforming your parent's home. Your design choices are so spot on. I love your parent's reaction to it all. What a special gift you gave them. I can't wait to see more from you. Great job! I think my favorite part was your dad's reaction to the built-ins in the living room. Your parents are so blessed to have you and your boyfriend.
Just removing the stuff from the house was a lot of work. What y’all were able to do on a tight budget and timeframe is astounding. Simply beautiful. I look forward to seeing your dads office reveal! I’m hooked 🙂
Your parents raised an amazingly giving, creative, determined and accomplished human being. I'm blown away by your skills and vision. Also, Boyfren needs to come in and take a bow. He must be such a generous, supportive and talented young man. I love how much your mama hugs you. The world needs more moms like her! Also, when's the tutorial on her skin care regime... because her complexion is #goals?! Pops is precious too. He'll be bragging on you for years!
I was anticipating this video with more excitement than I've ever had for any online content and it turned out so awesome! And it was so worth the wait because it's clear you've worked nonstop for weeks on the whole process. Absolutely amazing projects and such a wonderful finale - your parents are clearly awesome and they were as impressed and proud of you as they should be! Can't wait for your future projects, and honestly I'd be interested in a Patreon subscription if ever you'd consider that option.
I’m so impressed with the love and care that you put into recreating a beautiful home for your parents. I’m sure that they are amazed and happy with their beautiful home. Thank you for sharing it with us. Everyone should be so lucky to have raised their children to be as creative and generous as you are.
This is what every child should strive to do for their parents! You are a fabulous young lady and your parents are absolutely awesome. We all know what good people they are by what you did for them. They raised a loving and giving daughter! Congratulations to them for their beautiful home and congratulations to you on all of the hard work you’ve done. I can’t wait to see what you do next!
Easily one of the best remodels I’ve seen in a very long time. This is so impressive considering your budget and time frame. You (and Dillon) did an amazing job. So talented. I’m highly impressed. This is just beautiful!
All those times mum was preparing your meals in your younger days,dad driving you to all your practices and competitions etc they didn’t realise that right in front of them was someone who would do something that ended with your dad saying,” I didn’t realise you could do all this” that is an achievement in itself and something to be proud for.You guys did a great thing and an amazing work to a place that am sure holds a lot of great childhood memories for you & May you have many more with your parents there.Stay blessed 💯🔥🙏🏾
I came here from TikTok! Your parents are so lucky to have a daughter like you!! Your dad is so great, “It’s not like an iKea thing, you built this!” 😂 and your moms crying hugs. Ahh I’m so happy for them. You did an INCREDIBLE job❤️❤️❤️
This video brought tears to my eyes! The love you and your parents have for each other is so moving. You are such a good daughter to give your parents such a generous gift. And you’re so talented with your great design choices, especially on a tight budget👏
I am in tears watching this. Have watched all your tiktoks on the renovation and even showed my mum to which she also got so into it and is constantly asking has Emily posted another update. On the flipside she also would ask why I haven't done something like this for her 🙈 oh the pressure 🙈😂😂 But in all seriousness well done Emily, your parents should be so proud of you, not even for undertaking the project but to have such a talented daughter. It is currently 5am here in Dublin, Ireland but I will show my mum the reveal video when she wakes up. Can't wait to continue watching for updates. Much Love from my family to yours 💗💗
I’ve been following along on TikTok, so seeing this reveal made me so happy!! Tearing up at your parents’ reactions 🥺😭 so precious. You did an amazing job! I especially love that kitchen countertop 😍
I am actually crying. Your parents are so precious and so fortunate to have a thoughtful, loving, creative and talented daughter like you. You did such an amazing job and I can’t wait to see the rest of the house!
Your parents are so sweet, I loved that they held hands when they went out onto the new porch. ❤️. As a parent you get so wrapped up In raising your family, working, taking kids to all their events and competitions that you let other things wait. They have a lovely home that looked like a family actually lived and loved there. They sacrificed for their kids, Now you have given them a retreat to enjoy. I teared up seeing the Dance Room. You could see all the pride they have because they chose to display every achievement . I'm so happy for them to have a beautiful update for the next part of their lives, and for you for having parents who know that enjoying your kids while you have them is more important than paint and updates. Your kids are gone before you know it.
This video has brought tears to my eyes. Sometimes our kids don’t fully understand how much we have done as parents to support our families. Many times we have put our own dreams on the side to make theirs come true. I am sure that your parents appreciate all of you have done and let me tell them that they have done a great job with you. Congrats for the great work to you and to all the people who helped you. Amazing!
This is INCREDIBLE!!! I followed you on tiktok from the start and I always looked forward to new posts! You did an AMAZING job!! From the color choices to the consistent energy throughout every room. Love that the dance room and the living room have the same TV set up with the plant and the wreath. The porch is a huge upgrade. Just overall so amazing how you COMPLETELY turned the space around!! You should feel really proud - I am so invested in this, I feel like it was me who got the upgrade 😂😂 Congrats to your parents! They seem so sweet. Hope they live many more happy healthy fun years in that house and enjoy the heck out of the space 🙏🏼🤗
I love how genuinely happy this made your parents! I'm sure they were like dang all those years of studio did pay off! You can see how proud they are of you
I've been following you on TikTok awaiting the final reveal. You all did a beautiful job! Your parents reactions were absolutely precious! I must say I loved the editing of this video. I'm always disappointed when the before and after shots are so quick and I have to back the video up to really catch all the changes but this video was perfect. You nailed every aspect of the remodel & reveal. I can't wait to see more.
So sorry about the late upload! Has been uploading for hours 😫 for those wondering about budgeting, I’m hoping to post something separate with those details as to not take away from the excitement of this vid! Thank you all so much for the support, stay tuned for more house/DIYs 💛

"You built this. It's not like an ikea thing. You built this." He is so proud of you! Great job!
Best Dad for the compliments and sense of humor!!
I was just going to say the same thing! You can just hear how proud he is! ❤️
“I had no idea you could do all this.. I thought you were just painting walls” 😂
@@tiffanywilson6691 that was my favorite quote also!
Truly appreciative parents who are blown away with what they created. I mean they are blown away by their child's talents.
your dad is a gem!!! " i thought you were just painting walls" they looked so happy!
This comment is literally every parent to there 20 something year old kid with a career 😂😂
My exact thought as I finished watching!
Something my dad would say and it was sooo cute 😭😭
Believe it or not I didn't even see the comment or even made to the last part but I already was thinking like her dad gonna be like oh I'm glad you chose this as a career I was so wrong lol
At the end he was shocked. He said "I can't believe you can do all this!!"
Your dads “i thought you were just painting walls” and his “i didn’t know you could do all this” the pure proudness in his voice. Ugh. Goosebumps! Please come to Indiana and design my room for me 😂
Yes this! This was so wholesome
This is all looks so amazing i cant wait to see what u do next I've been to see their reaction and they loved so much just as much as i did keep doing what u luv
They were both so impressed, I don't think they really could take in all of it at once. Would love if you guys continue and your parents help too. I think they would love it.
I’m from Indiana too and I was about to comment that as well. Except I was gonna ask them to do my entire house 😭
I reside in Indiana as well and 100% agree hahahahaha I’ll need you for when I eventually move out
you gave them the best gift ever; not a new house, but seeing their daughter nail a transformation and know that she has found her vocation, you are inspiring
This!!! As a mom, I know how something like this would just knock my socks off if my kid did this. Seeing your child excel at something that makes them happy AND they’re good at?? The ultimate gift ❤️
And the fact she was so kind as to redo it for them. That’s so amazing
“I had no idea you could do all this!” That got me. Parents often still see their kids as kids in so many ways even once they’re grown up. You guys did SO MUCH work! Your parents’ house is HUGE! Jeez, there are so many rooms!
Elle D absolutely, my son is 29 and runs a major retail store. I still think of him as a sales associate
Isn't that the truth!
Absolutely true. My kid is only 10, but every day he surprises me with the things he knows and does. I still think of him as a small two year old who needs help with the potty.
My kids constantly surprise me. I’m so proud of them and humbled because life has not been easy, yet they persevere and succeed. ❤️
I chuckled when he said, “so thought you were just painting walls.”
I love that the before is all very like a family house that raised kids and was well lived in and now it’s been renovated to fit their needs and to freshen up their already loved house with so many memories.
This! 🙌🏻🧡
Agree completely!

Absolutely!
That part
I love how the dog matches the black and white decor
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I was thinking the same!!! Just adorable 😍
Hello I'm a new friends nice to meet you.sharing me back Friend 😂🥰🙏
Where is the laughter reaction when you need it! LMAO
“on a tight budget” ?!?! THIS IS ON A TIGHT BUDGET FOR YOU? I could only imagine how gorgeous you’d design something if you had no budget and were given all the money you needed to fund the project. I was truly baffled when I saw the before and afters, woah. You did an amazing job and It makes all our hearts warm seeing how happy you made your parents! You’re such an awesome daughter to them! 💖
Right??!! The light fixtures alone look like they cost a fortune.
Yep, if u go on her Tiktok you can see that she mostly traded and stuff.
I’d really like to know how she was able to afford all of this 😳 it looks insanely expensive
@@matcha.clouds she got most of it for free or super cheap on Facebook marketplace
@@JAB1979 In another video, she explains that she sold the old furniture for the new stuff, and spent ~$1,000 over what they profited off the old stuff.
"That not Ikea. You built that!"
The pride in his voice
It was the best
I was gonna come to the comments to say just that, you can totally see it, her dad is SO proud of her.
I cried!!!!
So touching! Your dad is in constant disbelief and at the same time so so proud of you & your mom is full of thanks and gratitude. I bet they can't wait to have guests over and tell them "my daughter DID this, could you believe it??!" "How awesome is this, look😊"
Not to mention your awesome boyfriend!
Bless you guys✨✨
This is my thought too.
Exactly I’m proud of her and I don’t even know her
Your parents seem like those top tier parents that put all of their love and energy into their family. It was really beautiful to watch them receive something this special in return.
Yes, this exactly.
My exact thoughts. They just radiate kindness. This is the best thing I’ve seen in weeks!
My thoughts as well. You’re a wonderful family. So much love!
I thought the same thing, not a lot of people are lucky enough to have two loving parents hell I don't even have one 😅 I'm sure she knows how lucky she is ❤️

I stumbled upon her on tik tok as well and I'm so glad I did because she is amazing!!!
Omg sameee
Same here!!
Same here!!
Omg same😹
She has literally added thousands to the value of her parents property.
I would say tens of thousands!!
Well, she literally has put thousands of human labor hours, even if you count just the minimum wage.
....and by basicly clearing out the space and painting it 🙃 very very impresive
Ivan Poldrugač someones mad 🙃
Ivan Poldrugač and by replacing all of the flooring in the house, making custom built ins, adding a patio, refinishing the cabinets, changing the layout, etc. It is actually very impressive especially given the budget and timeline they had to work on
The best part was your dads comment at the end .. “I thought you were just painting walls”.. classic Dad comment love it
I was about to comment the exact same thing! Such a sad thing to say 😊♥️
He’s massive
Kyla Mangiafico I was gonna say the same thing! He’s so proud of his little girl!
Unwanted Milk excuse me
I love how your dad is more proud of you than he is of the house itself. “I didn’t know you could do all this!” Made me cry!! Great job the house looks beautiful!
That did it for me. Made it through the whole video then he said that and my eyes started sweating.
“I thought you were just gonna paint walls” your parents are just so wholesome and grateful, it’s adorable
I’m so sorry you had to ask people to be respectful of your parents in the comments...they’re clearly amazing people to have raised a daughter like you. Wonderful job you did on the house! Congratulations you’re going to be so successful in your field!!
Agreed!!!!
I just.. I can just imagine the.. lightness your mom and dad feels. The house was so cluttered and dark and I felt anxious seeing it like that. Now it is so clean and bright and open and I can just imagine how good that has to feel, coming home to that. That's something I would have loved to do for my mom. She was so depressed at the end, this may have helped her so much! I am so happy you could do this for your parents. You are such a kind hearted person!
You've definitely found your calling with designing and making beautiful, functional pieces from used furniture. You need your own show. All the shows on hgtv are people with big budgets. This is great because you're showing people they can be happy with what they have, with the right interior design, some ingenuity and without spending thousands and thousands of dollars.
The last line “I thought you were just painting the walls”
Love these emotional videos. My parents have their mortgage paid but spend their money on us kids. I’ve been lucky enough to earn enough secretly to give them $500,000 to retire with. I can’t wait to see their reaction
Your parents are sure lucky to have a child like you! Hope you surprised them well, and wish them a happy and a healthy retirement!
That line got me too 😭😭😭
Aww post a reveal video!
Give it to them with a financial advisor attached!
this is so cool 😭
“i thought you were just painting the walls” 😩😩🥺 i cried with your mom this is too cute. everything turned out so amazing!!!!
Hey girl! Professional interior designer here - you should be so so proud of all this work you have done. The biggest challenge in design is when clients have a tight budget, and not only were you able to transform their space into something more beautiful and more practical, you did it on a tight budget IN A MONTH?!? It’s truly amazing. When I was in college I used to help guide my parents through some renovations and I think just our laundry room remodel took a whole summer 🙈.
Such a wonderful gift for your parents, great job
pretty sure she has a degree in interior design
@@lilliangross3373 yeah, but I think when people say "professional interior design" like in this case, they mean they have experience working on the field not that they studied it, I don't think they were throwing shade or anything
@@lilliangross3373 Hi Lilian, based on her website and videos I thought she was still an interior design student! I am not throwing any shade, she did an amazing job! :)
I remember scrolling on my FYP and coming across a video about a girl wanting to transform their parents house. I remember always coming back to see if there were any updates. This is sooo awesome, thank you for sharing the experience with us!
Literally SAME
I second that ✌🏻
SAME
Same here!
Same is so inspiring what she is doing for her parents
I dont know who is luckier.
Them for having you as a daughter, or you for having them as parents.
I laughed & I cried. ❤
This was just so beautiful!
I really hope this blows up. *You did a good thing Emily*!
😳
I’m mean she’s on #12 On Trending
Everything is so beautiful but what makes it so much more special is that you did it with love . You can see the genuine excitement and gratitude they had for your work . Hoping I can do something like this for my parents after all the stuff that they have done for me
When a daughter is that grateful and honring her parents with her talents this channel is worth to subscribe! Keep it up being humble and you will go so far! Congrats!
I agree! This video just randomly appeared in my YT feed today (along with a bunch of junky makeup channels?!? that I immediately nuked.) The title and thumbnail looked intriguing - I love transformations, reveals, etc. - so I clicked. So glad I did! What a delightful family. And the boyfriend sounds like a keeper, too.
Anyway, I’m subbing now 😁
YES!!! Chillssssssss❤️
And that's also because her mom and dad are still very much in love with each other. That's just my observation.
Coffeemate network I so agree .
“I thought you were just painting walls”. What a gift you’ve given them. Such proud parents!
Ahhh! When your mom said “this must have been so much work!” That hit me! So happy for your parents and for all the success you’ve had! Keep making people’s days! ❤️
There’s a lot of love in this family. That room was a shrine to her accomplishments, and she gave it back to them with such a graceful conversion
Perfectly stated! Thank you for saying what I couldn’t put into words 💗
The way the dad proudly said "all your girls' trophies!", in such a PROUD voice, made my heart ache, it was so sweet 😭🥺🥺🥺🥺
This also adds SO much to the property value. If they ever decide to sell their home, all of these updates mean SO much. A frugal house flip can add THOUSANDS to the value of this home (I can't imagine them selling this though. It obviously means so much to them!)
Kept up with everything on tiktok and then this vid came up in my recommended. I very much enjoyed this and their reactions made me cry😭❤️
Glad to know I wasn't the only one crying
The before pictures show a home that was completely for their children. All the trophies, ribbons, all the different gear for activities, sport, and music to give their kids a well-rounded life.
You can tell they have been all about the family.
It's so lovely that you're giving them a fresh start, now that the kids have flown the nest, for them to enter the next phase of their life with a beautiful home. Great job!
“I had NO idea you could do all this; it’s amazing!” Your Dad’s words are priceless. Your Mom’s tears were so real and you could tell how appreciative they both were! It makes me so proud for them and for YOU! You are very talented!!!
I swear I’m not crying. You can tell how proud your parents are of your hard work. You’ve done a beautiful job.
No one cares if youre crying
I was brought to tears too. It was so moving ❤️
R K no reason for that
Nobody:
Emily: *Making everyones quarantines better*
Ha your parents said “sure go ahead remodel” because they thought you were just painting walls lol You and your boyfriend are extremely skilled and talented 😍 beautiful and stunning results 💖
Imagine when their guests come over and they’re like where did you get this and her parents just say our daughter made it for us 🥰🥰
Honestly? GOALS
When your mom started crying I wanted to cry its so sweet
> It’s not like an ikea thing, you built this!
I died
Me too
same
The redesigns are amazing , but honestly, what overwhelmed me was to see the love between you and your parents. So much work is a clear labor of love, and to see them enjoy the finished product was so satisfying. What a beautiful family. You are a great daughter ❤️!
Your parents are going to be so proud of showing off the house and saying our daughter did all of this. You did an amazing job!
This is such a sweet thing to do. And the BF is definitely a keeper, frigging MVP
I will personally fight anyone that has something mean to say to your parents. 👀🤷🏼♀️ You can see their love for you throughout this whole video, it is truly heartwarming! Their genuine reactions are priceless. ❤️
Her mother's reaction to the bar and sink was the best 🥰
I'll second that. Her parents are so sweet and clearly love her so much. 🥺❤️
Ok, when dad said "I thought you were just painting walls!" (or something along the line) I literally spat my coffee 😂😂😂
But it was so precious, you can see that he's in a constant state of amazement. So pure 💖
You did an AMAZING job, and like other people said - you added so much value to the property.
But the best thing is you provided such a clean, free space for your parents. And you can see how happy they are 💖
As someone who doesn’t have the best relationship with their parents, this was so incredibly sweet and touching ❤️🥺
Felix Felicis altough I’m happy you realise something is wrong, make the effort to get your relationship back. If possible live close to eachother. Familly is the most important in our life.
A P not everyone has a good relationship with their parents and that’s okay. It’s also not on the child to fix.
Ivy Kalinin No its not ok. Parents are the most important figure in the life of a person, and it is proven that bad relationship with parents affects the child very negatively
Timor Eran Averbuch obviously it affects the child negatively, but some people have toxic parents and having them in our lives would do more harm than good. Everyone can’t have a great relationship with their parents and it shouldn’t be on the child to fix the relationship. The best thing is to surround yourself with people who love you and have your best interest whether you’re blood related or not.
The way the Dad was waiting for his hug at the end😂😂
So precious🥺
“I thought you were just painting walls”
I thought you were just painting walls :0
Keanen Schroeder oop i wrought my reply before I saw yours 😹
Mom needed it more. 🥺
The best line at the end..."I thought you were just painting walls!" 😂. You're a great person for doing that for your parents. They were clearly thrilled! The house looks amazing!
I literally in tears. The pride and appreciation that your parents had for your work is just wonderful. You did an awesome job. I’m proud of you and today is the first time I’ve seen any of your vids on TH-cam! Wow!!!
She has so much talent holy cow. Her parents are tooooo cute, this is really something special!!! Can’t wait for a video of the rest of the house !! Love love love
This looks amazing! Your parents should be very proud of you and the beautiful make over you did for them. You’re very talented.
I really can’t believe you did this all on such a short timeline and tight budget! I love your parents reactions, especially to the bar 😂
I have absolutely loved watching this process on TikTok-I can’t wait to see more! You and your boyfriend did an incredible job. You can see the pride in your parents eyes, it was so beautiful to watch! They seem so sweet and deserving of this. ❤️
I'm sure you can't even fathom how much this must mean to them. Your kindess I'm sure is a testament to what wonderful parents they seem like.
“I thought you were just painting walls” 😂
Dominic 96 what a simp
“I wanna make a fire” still a young boy at heart
I'm 28, a parent to two young children, & it's so inspiring to see so much love between child & parents. I hope I can inspire that same love & devotion into my own children. Beautiful, beautiful job. Such a sweet gesture. 💗
One thing that helps children learn to love and respect their parents is if you show them how you love and respect your own parents. Trust me, seeing how their parents treat the grandparents leaves a lasting impression on children.
When your mom started crying at the living room reveal, that was it for me. Tears for the whole video. But seriously, you did a phenomenal job- the house is GORGEOUS! I dream to have a house so pretty one day! For your budget and timeline, it is incredibly impressive. The fact that your boyfriend worked beside you, he is a keeper! Your parents seem like the sweetest people. This was such a beautiful gift that you gave to them♡ I can't wait to watch you on HGTV soon! This just made my day!
I’d like to say I started watching you and following you on TikTok. You guys did an amazing job We are so impressed, yes we, by the way I work for HGTV.
Give her a show! Design on a Dime!!!
Chloe Jefferson that’s a great name!
YES! I volunteer to be her first makeover house! :D
I would watch her show 100% I already got so many good ideas just from the channel! It’s such a good way to promote recycling and reducing waste through diy upcycling projects like this one! So helpful and entertaining 🏡❤️
I volunteer my parents home 😂😂😂😂 there’s lots of projects to do & they deserve alll the help they can get!
“You don’t lack space, you just have a bunch of stuff”. It looks great, congratulations!!
I came back to watch this again months later because I just love your parents reactions. You can see how much this meant to them and how in love they were with all of your choices. You can really see how proud your dad is of you, like the proud of you feeling that only a dad can give a daughter. My dad passed two years ago and we had a bad falling out and I never got to reconcile with him before he died so this was really special for me to see. Your parents seem like such genuine, good people. What a great, beautiful gift this must have been to give them 😊
WOW the TikToks of the process don’t show this house justice WOW
Yes I was thinking the same thing!! I'm floored, she and her boyfriend are very talented!
As a parent, I had tears. You are their daughter and you blew them away. They were so grateful and so proud and it is every parent's dream to see their child soar. But even more special because you poured your talents back into your two biggest champions and the two who have poured so much into you. What a blessing all around. Thanks for sharing this with us all!
“Look at the floor!!” “Look at the floor? Look at the wall!!” “Oh my Godddd!!!” That is so cute
Okay few things: 1. You’re parents are freaking adorable. 2. You should be so proud of all you got done in such a short period of time. 3. I cannot wait to see what you do with the other rooms in the house!!
I truly enjoyed watching every part on TikTok and this final reveal. I don’t know you but I’m sooo PROUD of you! You are parents are amazing, they raised you well.
I don't really understand when someone say their parents raise them well? Human are very capable of learning things by themselves? And a lot already comes with a personality.
I wouldn't say her parents raised her well I definitely think she was very loved and supported that's why she love her parents so much in return.
What u think?
“I thought you were just painting walls” 🥺🥺 he was so impressed by both of your talent and creativity. It all came out incredible! You have such a great career ahead of you
typical dad 😂 when he said "I thought you were just painting walls"😂 but deep inside he's so proud and happy😁😂
Emily, what you did for your parents cannot be properly articulated with mere words. It’s the hope that every parent has, that one day all of the love, teaching, training, and sacrifices we made would one day be on display. What a dream come true!
Your dad when he said "I wanna make a fire" when he was sat in his new porch was the most wholesome thing! I've loved following this project so much! Such a lush reveal!
It’s incredible what you were able to do in such a short amount of time! Daughter of the year award!
I stumbled upon your video by accident, and I'm so glad I did. You are the best daughter ever! You did such an amazing job transforming your parent's home. Your design choices are so spot on. I love your parent's reaction to it all. What a special gift you gave them. I can't wait to see more from you. Great job! I think my favorite part was your dad's reaction to the built-ins in the living room. Your parents are so blessed to have you and your boyfriend.
Just removing the stuff from the house was a lot of work. What y’all were able to do on a tight budget and timeframe is astounding. Simply beautiful. I look forward to seeing your dads office reveal! I’m hooked 🙂
haven’t even watched the whole but i have been following on tiktok and i just know it’s gonna be amazing!!! can’t wait to see what else you create 💕😊
These may just be the most adorable parents I’ve ever seen. They’re so proud 🥺
Lovely… The house looked very “loved in” and was very comfortable. Now it looks fresh and “loved on.”
“I had no idea you could do all of this” what a proud moment for you both!
Your parents raised an amazingly giving, creative, determined and accomplished human being. I'm blown away by your skills and vision. Also, Boyfren needs to come in and take a bow. He must be such a generous, supportive and talented young man.
I love how much your mama hugs you. The world needs more moms like her! Also, when's the tutorial on her skin care regime... because her complexion is #goals?!
Pops is precious too. He'll be bragging on you for years!
I was anticipating this video with more excitement than I've ever had for any online content and it turned out so awesome! And it was so worth the wait because it's clear you've worked nonstop for weeks on the whole process. Absolutely amazing projects and such a wonderful finale - your parents are clearly awesome and they were as impressed and proud of you as they should be!
Can't wait for your future projects, and honestly I'd be interested in a Patreon subscription if ever you'd consider that option.
I’m so impressed with the love and care that you put into recreating a beautiful home for your parents. I’m sure that they are amazed and happy with their beautiful home. Thank you for sharing it with us. Everyone should be so lucky to have raised their children to be as creative and generous as you are.
"I thought you were just painting the walls"
😆😅 They had no idea....
This is what every child should strive to do for their parents! You are a fabulous young lady and your parents are absolutely awesome. We all know what good people they are by what you did for them. They raised a loving and giving daughter! Congratulations to them for their beautiful home and congratulations to you on all of the hard work you’ve done. I can’t wait to see what you do next!
Easily one of the best remodels I’ve seen in a very long time. This is so impressive considering your budget and time frame. You (and Dillon) did an amazing job. So talented. I’m highly impressed. This is just beautiful!
All those times mum was preparing your meals in your younger days,dad driving you to all your practices and competitions etc they didn’t realise that right in front of them was someone who would do something that ended with your dad saying,” I didn’t realise you could do all this” that is an achievement in itself and something to be proud for.You guys did a great thing and an amazing work to a place that am sure holds a lot of great childhood memories for you & May you have many more with your parents there.Stay blessed 💯🔥🙏🏾
Your parents are what I would imagine Suki and Jackson from Gilmore girls to be like when they’re older
This is such an accurate description, he even has Jackson’s voice wow
YOU hit the nail on the head with this. That’s exactly who they are.
I want to like this comment but the numbers are the same
omG so accurate
THIS this is the comment that got me 😩
I came here from TikTok! Your parents are so lucky to have a daughter like you!! Your dad is so great, “It’s not like an iKea thing, you built this!” 😂 and your moms crying hugs. Ahh I’m so happy for them. You did an INCREDIBLE job❤️❤️❤️
Your parents are absolutely delightful! Also, how adorable is it that they had a room filled with your trophies and ribbons??
This video brought tears to my eyes! The love you and your parents have for each other is so moving. You are such a good daughter to give your parents such a generous gift. And you’re so talented with your great design choices, especially on a tight budget👏
I am in tears watching this. Have watched all your tiktoks on the renovation and even showed my mum to which she also got so into it and is constantly asking has Emily posted another update. On the flipside she also would ask why I haven't done something like this for her 🙈 oh the pressure 🙈😂😂 But in all seriousness well done Emily, your parents should be so proud of you, not even for undertaking the project but to have such a talented daughter. It is currently 5am here in Dublin, Ireland but I will show my mum the reveal video when she wakes up. Can't wait to continue watching for updates. Much Love from my family to yours 💗💗
I’ve been following along on TikTok, so seeing this reveal made me so happy!! Tearing up at your parents’ reactions 🥺😭 so precious. You did an amazing job! I especially love that kitchen countertop 😍
Thats my favorite too!
That’s incredible. Don’t know why anyone would dislike
I agree! My jaw dropped when I saw the dislikes.
They might have clicked it by accident without realizing it. No harm done :)
They jealous
1 - haters
2 - trolls
Meh ! don't mind them ! There's a lot of love in this video. This is what's important
Dad is right "it is amazing". Love it all. Love the color palette. Love the light fixtures. So light and bright. What a way to bless them.
Your mom's face through the whole thing is precious
I am actually crying. Your parents are so precious and so fortunate to have a thoughtful, loving, creative and talented daughter like you. You did such an amazing job and I can’t wait to see the rest of the house!
When you’re all done you should bring in an appraiser to see how much the value of their house increased with all your renovations!
That would only increase their taxes. They might as well wait .
Marina Andrade I was just thinking if they decided to sell
Your parents are so sweet, I loved that they held hands when they went out onto the new porch. ❤️. As a parent you get so wrapped up In raising your family, working, taking kids to all their events and competitions that you let other things wait. They have a lovely home that looked like a family actually lived and loved there. They sacrificed for their kids, Now you have given them a retreat to enjoy. I teared up seeing the Dance Room. You could see all the pride they have because they chose to display every achievement . I'm so happy for them to have a beautiful update for the next part of their lives, and for you for having parents who know that enjoying your kids while you have them is more important than paint and updates. Your kids are gone before you know it.
“You actually built this” you’re parents are adorable and you are such a beautiful blessing! I could only wish to be able to do this for my parents 💗
This video has brought tears to my eyes. Sometimes our kids don’t fully understand how much we have done as parents to support our families. Many times we have put our own dreams on the side to make theirs come true. I am sure that your parents appreciate all of you have done and let me tell them that they have done a great job with you. Congrats for the great work to you and to all the people who helped you. Amazing!
This is INCREDIBLE!!! I followed you on tiktok from the start and I always looked forward to new posts! You did an AMAZING job!! From the color choices to the consistent energy throughout every room. Love that the dance room and the living room have the same TV set up with the plant and the wreath. The porch is a huge upgrade. Just overall so amazing how you COMPLETELY turned the space around!! You should feel really proud - I am so invested in this, I feel like it was me who got the upgrade 😂😂 Congrats to your parents! They seem so sweet. Hope they live many more happy healthy fun years in that house and enjoy the heck out of the space 🙏🏼🤗
I love how genuinely happy this made your parents! I'm sure they were like dang all those years of studio did pay off! You can see how proud they are of you
I've been following you on TikTok awaiting the final reveal. You all did a beautiful job! Your parents reactions were absolutely precious! I must say I loved the editing of this video. I'm always disappointed when the before and after shots are so quick and I have to back the video up to really catch all the changes but this video was perfect. You nailed every aspect of the remodel & reveal. I can't wait to see more.
I agree! Very well captured!
