You’re so right. She has such a warm, inviting personality. I’m old enough to be her mother and when I see anyone be negative or unkind to her in the comments, I get protective of her and want to tell them off. 😂❤️ She’s a gem!!
I decided to go back and watch some older videos as I was patiently waiting for your newest renovation video to drop, and I have paused 4 minutes in to comment. I love how giddy and excited and proud you are here to make your very first cut for the vanity you are building. Then to think about how in the last few weeks, we have literally watched you build dozens of kitchen cabinets like a pro! You have built freaking WALLS in your home! This was only 2 years ago! It’s wild!!! You are such an inspiration, friend. I absolutely adore following you.💛💛💛
Just so you understand why the wood is different dimensions than what the label says (and this is a very general explanation), I thought I'd give you a little background and a little trick. When it says a board is a 2x4, that's the nominal dimension of the board. The nominal dimension is what they cut the tree to. So, they cut the tree into 2 inch by 4 inch boards. But AFTER they size the boards they plane and sand them down to make them smooth. Rule of thumb is; the actual dimensions of the board are approximately a 1/2 inch smaller than what is listed. So a board with the sign that says 2x4 is actually closer to 1.5x3.5 Hopefully that helps when you go to plan things out. Love this vanity, this is exactly the style I was looking for a could never find anywhere haha
Gorgeous! Loving the vanity you built. I would be extremely proud of myself building such a wonderful piece. You set a great example of overcoming fear and nerves to build a piece you really wanted. Tools can be extremely daunting but like you said slow and steady is the practice to set until you have confidence. I think this applies to all new skills. Loving the clips at the end!
Macenna, watching this video and hearing you say “I’m going build a lot of things” and you’ve done kitchen cabinets, floors, window trim, etc… I just love this vanity ❤😊🇨🇦
Your house inspires me SO much. Watching your channel has made me realize how much I love doing DIYS, painting, and decorating. I look forward to your videos EVERY Sunday. You are an amazing soul and I’m so grateful I get to watch you on TH-cam! ☺️💘
I cannot tell you how much I look forward to your videos! I'm loving the vlogging style too! Just want to say thank you for putting content that's genuine, creative and and brings joy to some random person in the world! :)
Just started watching and I already love it! Every girl needs a beautiful space to get ready in! 🙌🏼 Also, I LOVE how you edit your videos... *taking notes!* And the slow-mo with the glasses 😂 Keep these coming, love!
You rocked that !!!! you did your thing with the vanity , it looks so well made .Now go ahead and make more so we all can buy it lol. It looks great give me life love the natural wood color and the whole style . yeahhhh !!!1
I have now watched about 6 of your videos - this one was definitely a highlight though - the resulting vanity station looks fantastic!- but the excitement and pride you oozed having made the vanity was priceless - you are amazing!
Great job!! The vanity turned out amazing!! And I totally understand what you mean about feeling invincible now that you built something! I repurposed a patio table a couple weeks ago and built the new tabletop for it out of wood and now I feel like I can make anything! I have more projects in mind that I hope to start this week!🤗
Yesss girls can do anything!!! I loveddd this so much You are such an empowered woman!! You go girl. No but for real, you faced this project head on, and it went so well. Super proud of you! enjoy doing your make-up at your beautifull vanity!!
That's the vanity I want. Thats it. My search is over. Simple and earthy, as I don't use much makeup this setup will be perfect for me and I can take it to the next rental!
This was the second video of yours I have watched. I have to say Thank you for NOT having the music playing loudly while you are talking. It honestly is so helpful. The two videos I watched are amazing and I have subscribed to your channel. Your videos are funny and engaging so I look forward to more of them!
I loveee your content so much! Since I started watching you, I’ve felt like I can conquer any of the DIY projects that I’ve been pinning for years but have never had the courage to actually do. 🤍
MaCenna!!!!!!!!!! YOU ARE A BOSSSS!!! I have been waaaaiting for some woodworking videos! You went 0 to 💯 real quick!!! Eeee!! So excited for you!!! Pleeease take us all the way along for the ride next time, even if you’re building from someone else’s plan. The vanity is STUNNING.
Randomly watching this video and to see you so nervous to start using tools, to now seeing the progress you're making in building cabinetry and frames, and sills and ALL THE THINGS for a whole dang house 🤣 is CRAZY! You've come so far MaCenna you should be so so proud!!!
Girl, you did such a great job of making that desk and the dividers inside the drawers! Everything looks so good on the shelves you made! You blow my mind with your incredible imagination and style! Just love all of this!🌈🏘️🌼🐩🐈🦋💞💫
That's so pretty.!!! Good job girl. Can you give us any ideas for a balcony decoration??? I want to do mine and I love your style. Love from Greece 😘😘😘😘
The table is beautiful!!! I would love to see you make another and do a step by step process of the build! I love the new art work! You should make another one :) I have noticed a lot of new art that’s like yours but people are incorporating embroidery if that makes sense. Favorite channel!💛
This looks fab!!! Love it!!! I also saw your video of making patio chairs. I think you are incredible and turning into a semi-pro joiner! Soooo cool!!! My paternal grandfather was an amazing joiner/cabinet maker and he would have been well impressed by your skills! You are a great role model for women taking on area’s traditionally covered by men! So proud of you!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
💖💖💖💖💖 Dear MaCenna, YOU DID IT ! You Built Yourself A Vanity With Matching Shelves 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Your Artistry Is LIMITLESS 👍🏻👍🏻 We Are SO Proud of You 💖💖💖💖💖
Yasss you should!!!! I was so intimidated but it wasn’t scary at all .. it was just the unknown scaring me (and my mom telling me I might lose a finger 🤦🏼♀️ hahah lol) YOU GOT THIS!!
Love the vanity!! I’m so happy you’re getting into making your own furniture! You’re very talented already! Also, I just realized that you totally look like you could be an Olsen sister!
I'm in love!!! My hubby isn't big on DIY's so I'm super inspired by your strong female power energy! I want to get into making my own furniture and start doing more of my own DIY projects soon! Thanks so much for the inspo! :)
You always talk to us like we’re your friends sitting at a table together and I LOVE it. You’re one cool chick! Vanity came out stunning.
That is so true. Mace na you have a good vibe. Love your projects.
Thank you so much!!! That means so much to me! I really connect with you guys like we really are friends (cause we are 🥰)
Casey Dattola yes! She’s awesome
You’re so right. She has such a warm, inviting personality. I’m old enough to be her mother and when I see anyone be negative or unkind to her in the comments, I get protective of her and want to tell them off. 😂❤️ She’s a gem!!
Kathy Courtney I love this! We have protect our tribe :)
I really like that you don’t by everything new and recycle your furniture and second hand stuff. Just great! And your ideas don’t look cheap ;)
Thank you so much!! You have no idea how much that means to me!!! 🥰

It's so earthy and grounded and relaxing, way more 'you' this time around!
Thank you 🥰
Beautiful job! I too love that feeling you get when you create something. So much more satisfying than buying it from a store.
I am so obsessed with the setup! Nothing feels better than a fresh vanity setup. This is inspiring!

That makes so much more sense! Thank you
I love your new vanity, shelves and art! You are so talented. Looking forward to the next video.

WOW....just WOW! I can't believe you made that desk...and it was your first time with major power tools. Amazing!
