I actually prefer a "small" cottage-type house; never cared for large houses, which require more maintenance and can be costly. Matter of fact, my now elderly, widowed mom regrets building a large home with acreage. The upkeep is too much for her and she's always having to get hired help to assist with lawn duties. Your home is the same size as mine and it's absolutely charming. You're also a good steward over your finances, a wise shopper, and obviously an overall Proverbs 31 woman. Great job, Karrie Lynn! God bless you, your family, and your lovely home.
Home is where your heart is and through your beautifying your home, you have shown where your heart is. For your family and your home. You are making a restful, cozy, safe place for your family to come home to. Great job, Karrie!
Love the chairs from the trash so much! Don’t ever apologize for saving something good and turning it into a gem! I did that for years and even found things on the way to work destined for the dump because they were at the road waiting for the garbage to run ! Everyone always complimented me on my home and asked where I got things! I told them the truth! Mine were one of a kind and I worked hard to refinish them way before chalk paint and all the cool stuff we have now! I enjoyed redoing things a lot! Be proud to find a deal or something free! It is like money in the bank and good for the environment!! Your home looks gorgeous and you should be proud! I heard you tell your story a long time back and I am proud of what you have done for your family! Be safe and be blessed!
There are over 600 comments ahead of mine so I almost didn't leave a comment but I think it's worth saying that you are one a very small handful(actually 3) of TH-camrs that I still find motivating. I'm tired of all the huge homes that are really never dirty (messy MAYBE, but not dirty) and who buy all their decor at Pottery Barn and Kirklands....obviously they have beautiful homes but there's no motivation there for us "regular folks". I very rarely leave one of your videos uninspired or motivated. Your home is what I call a "normal" home and it's absolutely beautiful and I think it's just perfect! I remember when you lived in Georgia and that home was also beautiful. Anyway...I could go on but I won't. Thank you for always keeping it real and normal
I love your precious little house! And I love the fact that you are so real about everything! Some TH-cam channels I watch are so over the top with the decor .. it’s like a competition among some of them. Not everyone can order from Kirkland’s and expensive stores. Thanks for being a down to earth normal Mom who utilizes what she has and keeps it all budget friendly ❤️
This is exactly the kind of house my husband and I are looking for. It is cozy and beautiful. I have no desire for a huge house. And I LOVE your necklace 😍
Finally! A realistic home. I hate watching videos with 4000 square feet homes. My family of 5 like in 1000 Square feet and I could never find any videos I can relate to. Thank you!!
Love your home . Makes me miss Florida so much . I also love how relatable you are . A real home where people live and kids play . Keep these videos coming please .
Your home is stunning, big houses are not my thing at all.. and your dinning table is so beautiful! I like the massieve wood! You did a great job making this house a home, enjoy it! And thank you for the video.
I love the size of your home. We used to live in a home that size, and I would go back and downsize in a heartbeat. You have done a beautiful job. Its so pretty and inviting.
I love your house. It's a reflection of you. All the diy's show off your talent. In just over a year you've transformed it from an empty house into a warm and inviting home. May God bless you as you continue to make it just right for your family.
You have a very nicely decorated home! I can hear in your voice how proud you are of the work you’ve done in your home with your husband’s help. Beautiful!
It's not the size of the house that counts but more the love and family that lives inside it. It's easy to see there's a lot of love in your house. I wish I was as good at DIYing as you are. I suck at stuff like that. Lol. No shame here
Love your home! We bought a small cottage style house. It’s about 1,100 square feet. Almost 100 year old and we love the charm. I’ve always loved smaller homes. You’ve done a wonderful job decorating
I love the way the whole house has the same theme, everything looks light and cozy. Thats what im trying do to my house. OUT WITH THE DARK BROWN IN WITH THE LIGHT GRAY.
The only thing in my house that is grey is my couch. Walls and floor everything else is white and brown. I actually really love the coziness of darker colors so maybe try to just add a few pops of white to brighten it up.
You home is beautiful. You have great taste. I lived in a 1,100sq house for 25 years with a hubby, 2 children and 2 (sometimes 3) dogs. It was mine and I loved it even though my friends had bigger ones.
My husband and I downsized from a 2600 sq. Ft. House to just a little over 1500, that big house worked us to death..lol. You have decorated your home cozy, warm and inviting. Tfs.
I absolutely love your house! I find that I like the smaller, cozy houses way more than the big fancy houses. I love how you made every inch of your house beautiful and special to your family. I am excited to go back and watch all of the videos of you doing the make overs.
This is awesome! You have made a home! Love your treasures that you have remade! This can be incentive for alot of people...they say they can't afford to decorate! But just look around your area & watch these videos !
Your home is beautiful! Your wood finishing is amazing btw! I thought of a few ideas while watching. All having to do with storage. 1. When your daughter was in the other room you had the home school bookcase beside her desk. You have room beside the desk now for it. Then you could put shelves in her closet for those toys by her bathroom or for whatever is needed. 2. Use her bathroom as your makeup and hairstyling room. Then you won't have to sit on the floor. And you'll have workspace. 3. Your son's baby mattress will probably slide under a bed. Maybe in your daughter's room for a sleepover etc. Then you would have more storage room in his closet for toys. etc. Again your home is beautiful! The first video I watched was when you switched the dining and living rooms with the dogs and kids running around. I loved it! Been watching ever since!
Your home look beautiful Karrie. You and your husband did a great job on the custom island. You did an excellent job on the furniture paints. Have a blessful weekend.🙏❤
You all have poured so much love into turning a house into your home sweet home! You've transformed so much into such welcoming and cozy spaces. It's beautiful!
Oh my word, Beautiful home! I can feel how cozy and welcoming it is! I love love love everything about it! You & your husband have done an amazing job!
Your home is absolutely beautiful. You and your husband are blessed with talent for building. You are truly blessed with a gift for decorating and redoing furniture ( I loved the table you just did for your mom ❤️). Sweetie have a blessed weekend and continue to enjoy your home.
The fake brick wall is genius and beautiful! You have such an amazing eye for decorating. Everything is perfectly placed and decorating so nicely! I love your style. Our house is small too! 1,000 square feet and it’s been fine for us! One day we’d like a few hundred more but we have a 4 year old boy and my husband has a 9 year old daughter who isn’t with us full time and it’s enough space! 3 bedrooms but I wish our living room was a little bigger
Nice house, good job of decorating. 1200 sq ft is plenty of room, I grew up in a bit smaller and there was 10 of us. We were happy. Nobody needs bigger with 2 kids.
Beautiful!!! You should be proud...looks high end..you you know you have skill when you can diy.upcycle and buy new and end results are stunning...now my 2 favs are of course brick wall transformation..but my jaw dropped when you pointed to pictures above your daughter's bed and said. Very casually.. " I made these"..fantastic job!!
I love this video share!!! ❤️❤️❤️ I took the time to watch the original walk through, which in my opinion, helped me to appreciate your current walk through! Thank you for taking the time! You have a very beautiful home! So much inspiration here! ❤️ Continue to be blessed🙏😇
You have a beautiful home I love everything. You inspire me every day. My house is 34 years old and needs updates I did my counter tops after watching you do your moms and kitchen cabinets I was so scared to do it until I watched you a couple of times I love my kitchen now. Thank you for sharing all your DIY I look forward to them. You have a beautiful family. Have a wonderful Blessed day ❤️🥰
For real. I love her house and backyard! I wouldn't want to clean a lot every damn day lol. I've got my own design taste, but I think this really is a cute house!!!
Just found you tonight, I am a new subscriber. We live in a 1600 sq ft home, it is a craftsman, it is small and we LOVE IT! Small and cozy. Your home is beautiful. God bless you.🙏❤️
👏👏👏👏 beautiful! Our house is only 1,238 sq ft 3 bd 2ba and we added an island too. But ours isn’t open concept so we added a pass through from the living room to dining room (kitchen and dining room is one room). It’s amazing how you can add an island and and make a smaller house feel bigger. lol I am a bit jealous you got to do chairs at the island though! 😂 I wanted that so bad but we couldn’t afford to take out the load bearing wall in the main living area.
I love your home and I too prefer a smaller home because it is cozier and homier. You are a tidy person so it looks well kept and not cluttered and I love that. These "mini mansions" I see on here are just too big and cold to me. Of course I am a grandma who also started out in a trailer and I can tell from your excitement about your home that you are so proud of it as was I when we got our first home which was only 1300 square feet. We have since moved several times and each house got a little bigger but never huge which is how I like it. You guys are so talented in building furniture etc. Love that chandelier in the dining room!!
Karrie you made a statement that your house is cute... you are wrong... your house is beautiful!!! Big or small you and Dillon have worked hard and it shows! Your space is warm and cozy and filled with a loving FAMILY❣️ You guys have made a house a home! Good job👍
I love those plates from Dollar Tree too!!! I bought a couple bowls and mugs of them and am going to get more!!! They are my favorite!!! You have a beautiful home!!!❤️
1200 square feet , 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms?? ,that is large for me and dream size! Lol Your home is beautiful, you have done an excellent job in your decor.
I remember seeing your tour when you first moved and the excitement in your voice! Your home is just lovely. You have been busy! So many projects that have given your home so much character! Great job!

God bless you, your family, and your lovely home.
Lesson learned here! Built a huge house only to hate it. Sold it and went back to a cottage, which is perfect!
Me too
What did we learn today?
You absolutely don’t have to have the biggest house to make the biggest impact. Your house is perfectly perfect!
Home is where your heart is and through your beautifying your home, you have shown where your heart is. For your family and your home. You are making a restful, cozy, safe place for your family to come home to. Great job, Karrie!

Well that's a huge compliment thank you so very much ! I truly appreciate viewers like you and I hope to continue to post content you enjoy 😊
Agreed. Rich people do not need inspiration from youtube they can afford designers. This is doable and appreciated by us regular folks.

Beautiful everything is beautiful, what a difference you've made in all the decor and upgrades you and your husband have made ❤
When she keeps saying she needs to “fix this “ I’m like what is she talking about 😱 it’s gorgeous how it is !!! 😍
Thanks 😊
It's not the size of the house that counts but more the love and family that lives inside it. It's easy to see there's a lot of love in your house. I wish I was as good at DIYing as you are. I suck at stuff like that. Lol. No shame here
Love your home! We bought a small cottage style house. It’s about 1,100 square feet. Almost 100 year old and we love the charm. I’ve always loved smaller homes. You’ve done a wonderful job decorating
Your home is super cute. Just the right size. Who wants to spend all their time cleaning? After cleaning the second tub and toilet I’m so over it.
I’ve been asking my husband to move. He just put a 9th bathroom in. I’m so over cleaning...
Your home is warm, inviting and cozy!! All the warm tones and decorated so well! Be proud of your hard work on building a nice home and family!! 👍💕
You have changed your house to a "home." A very beautiful home! Be proud of your work. Thanks for sharing
I love your house. Remember a big house is just more to clean :)
I love the way the whole house has the same theme, everything looks light and cozy. Thats what im trying do to my house. OUT WITH THE DARK BROWN IN WITH THE LIGHT GRAY.

You home is beautiful. You have great taste. I lived in a 1,100sq house for 25 years with a hubby, 2 children and 2 (sometimes 3) dogs. It was mine and I loved it even though my friends had bigger ones.
It's so funny how completely different the house looks less than a year later.. lol... even the backyard is different! 😁
you have made your house a home, and like they say good things come in small packages.
You have a beautiful cozy home. I really love everything thing you and your husband have done to it.
My husband and I downsized from a 2600 sq. Ft. House to just a little over 1500, that big house worked us to death..lol. You have decorated your home cozy, warm and inviting. Tfs.
You are the absolute sweetest. I wish we were neighbors! Beautiful home in all aspects. Blessings to you and your family.
I absolutely love your house! I find that I like the smaller, cozy houses way more than the big fancy houses. I love how you made every inch of your house beautiful and special to your family. I am excited to go back and watch all of the videos of you doing the make overs.
Looks gorgeous!! Also, does anyone else think Karrie’s giggle sounds like a Disney princess?? So cute! I just love it!
I love her laugh
Yes on her laugh.
This is awesome! You have made a home! Love your treasures that you have remade! This can be incentive for alot of people...they say they can't afford to decorate! But just look around your area & watch these videos !
Very cute and cozy. I just got a 1400 sq. ft. house. I I absolutely love it!! From over 1700 square feet!! Simple and functional is where I am

Beautiful. You and your husband did a great job. Adorable place. You have a good taste.
Paint the lamp next to your couch mat black. Your house looks beautiful.
I thought about it but decided I liked the gold pop it makes it interesting 😁
Your little home is absolutely lovely!

Remember it may not be extravagant, but some people don’t even have a house...😀
Yes so so very true. Im so grateful for everything I have and pray for those who have to go without 💔🙏
@@karrielynn 💯%
For real. I love her house and backyard! I wouldn't want to clean a lot every damn day lol. I've got my own design taste, but I think this really is a cute house!!!
Very true. I’m 25 and have never lived in a house always an apartment but I’m still grateful.
I love your house and the way you have decorated it.
This is the prettiest farmhouse style home I have seen. It doesn't look like a department store. :-)
Thank you so so much!!!
This looks like my dream house it is gorgeous
I remember when you moved in, looks awesome everything you’ve done!!
Love your home! Just the right size!🙂
Thank you ❤
Not a big house, but you've made it a beautiful home. Kudos! 👏👏👏👏👏
I love your beautiful home. My house is small at 1170.I have big rooms ,built in 1974. Thank you for sharing your decorating ideas. 🥰😇
Such a comfortable, attractive home!
Seriously perfection!! I love everything about your Home.
Omg I love your home. It’s the perfect size and I love how affordable everything is. I’m amazed by all the things you built.
I love you Karrie Lynn....I feel 🙌🏾 blessed watching your videos. I just love to hear your voice and see your ever changing beautiful home. Thank you
We had that exact tile in our last house in the bathrooms. I thought it was beautiful. You've done an amazing job, Karrie!
Isn’t there a bathroom in Amayah’s bedroom? If so are you gonna do a makeover on it? You are so talented and would love to see it.
I was wondering the same thing.
Feels like hone, love it! I especially love the paint color.
Just found you tonight, I am a new subscriber. We live in a 1600 sq ft home, it is a craftsman, it is small and we LOVE IT! Small and cozy. Your home is beautiful. God bless you.🙏❤️
Your home is beautiful
Thank you ❤
Your whole house is beautiful
They look like linen curtains. I love your coffee table!
10:11 I LOOOOOVE your home and your way of explaining everything. I will definitely be watching your posts!!!!! You go girl you are awesome!!!!
What is the paint color you used I love it! And you house is beautiful I definitely prefer it to the enormous homes!
I was also wanting to ask what paint colors as well.
Fabulous home, u have great taste.
Love your house! Especially the hidden door in your living room!
👏👏👏👏 beautiful! Our house is only 1,238 sq ft 3 bd 2ba and we added an island too. But ours isn’t open concept so we added a pass through from the living room to dining room (kitchen and dining room is one room). It’s amazing how you can add an island and and make a smaller house feel bigger. lol I am a bit jealous you got to do chairs at the island though! 😂 I wanted that so bad but we couldn’t afford to take out the load bearing wall in the main living area.
Turn Cayden's bookshelf on its side to be more of a side table.
Good idea!
I think you missed your daughters bathroom. 😆
You have done a great job with decorating your home. It looks beautiful. You wanna come do mine. 😂 jk
This house is massive when seeing what Europeans live in! Excellent job all around!!!!
I love your home and I too prefer a smaller home because it is cozier and homier. You are a tidy person so it looks well kept and not cluttered and I love that. These "mini mansions" I see on here are just too big and cold to me. Of course I am a grandma who also started out in a trailer and I can tell from your excitement about your home that you are so proud of it as was I when we got our first home which was only 1300 square feet.

You guys are so talented in building furniture etc. Love that chandelier in the dining room!!
Your house is lovely ❤❤❤❤❤
Your house is so pretty. Could you tell me what the interior paint color is on your walls? It's such a good color.
Beautiful you and your husband have done a great job
You should be very proud with your accomplishments. The house looks great, yard and laundry do as well.........nice work Karrie!
I love it so much! I live in one of the smallest houses in my neighborhood and I’m so happy with it.
i really love the guest🐕🦺 sleeping on the bed!!!..hahaha
Karrie you made a statement that your house is cute... you are wrong... your house is beautiful!!! Big or small you and Dillon have worked hard and it shows! Your space is warm and cozy and filled with a loving FAMILY❣️ You guys have made a house a home! Good job👍
My house is small too!!! Your house is warm , cozy and I Love it!!! 💖💖💖
I love those plates from Dollar Tree too!!! I bought a couple bowls and mugs of them and am going to get more!!! They are my favorite!!! You have a beautiful home!!!❤️
Very pretty and I love her down to earth attitude😍
My house is 1500 sq ft and this just makes me feel good to decorate and known it will look amazing ❤
It gets better everytime I see your home again!! Beautiful
Your house is beautiful. It’s not small it’s a nice humble size which you’ve made into an amazing home. God bless 🙏🏽😍
Love it! And the brown tones make it so warm!!
Love your house! It has changed a lot since you moved in. You guys are very talented, when it comes to DIYs.
1200 square feet , 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms?? ,that is large for me and dream size! Lol Your home is beautiful, you have done an excellent job in your decor.
Oh my word its look Phenomenal You n your Husband did a great job Karrie!!!🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩👌😍
Beautiful, cozy and real life! Love it all!
I'm so impressed with how the brick wall turned out. You can't tell that it opens at all. Everything is gorgeous.
I remember seeing your tour when you first moved and the excitement in your voice! Your home is just lovely. You have been busy! So many projects that have given your home so much character! Great job!
