    It kind of snuck up on me, but right at the end of this video I began to cry. It was seeing you and your lovely teenaged daughter working together to create such a beautiful home. She was helping you hang curtains and I was suddenly so forcefully reminded of such similar times with my mom. Unlike the common misconception that kids can't stand their parents at that age, I always loved my mom and had a very synchronized relationship with her. We loved working together. I suppose I cried for the times that are past and the preciousness of those memories. I still have my mom, hopefully for a long long time yet, but she can't do what she used to, and I have my own home now. That short time under the same roof is so special.

    What a lovely comment from Larissa! There’s always grace. I’m SO glad you reminded us that projects take time. I tend to be harder on myself in making up my mind and that just stifles any joy. I just avoid the process and not enjoy it. It steals the finished project’s completion and the satisfaction of a job well done. So, thank you. Truly. It’s such a nice reminder. Also, I just love all the Lady clips. She is such an adorable helper. 😉 Looking forward to see how this all comes together for you!

    I'm so glad i watched this today. I am shopping for curtains today, and I didn't think about getting tiebacks. Those are so pretty. They're like jewelry for your windows.
    Your dog always makes makes smile.
    So sweet and playful.😊😊😊

    Hi Nikki wonderful just watching you do the painting, nothing like fresh paint to brighten things up. The cabinet for your daughter looked fabulous, I'm sure she would be happy. Having your daughter to help with the sewing is wonderful. Loved seeing Lady.❤❤

    Hi Nikki, I live in an English Cottage built in 1810 so my windows are quite small; however having curtains at the window is not really successful, so I opted for vertical blinds in a lovely cream colour which helps to expand the daily light. l have the same style of curtains as you in a duck egg blue to match two of my easy chairs; the difference is that the curtains don’t draw completely across the window; there are just 8 Gromits per curtain and the curtain rails stop halfway across the wooden lintels so the cream blinds lighten up the sitting room in the evening plus the candles. 🕯️

    Your daughter is so talented Nikki! Her work is beautiful and the two of you make a wonderful design team. Your home is always a delightful space, and very warm and inviting. Thank you for always bringing us along on your journey. Please make your aprons again soon, as I would love to add them to my dress each day as part of my lady attire. Have a blessed weekend!

    Your efforts or I should say your beautiful work painting has paid off in my opinion. The cabinet you did for your daughter is beautiful I think she will love it for all the sewing she does she is very talented. The curtains and tiebacks are beautiful also.

    It has been beautiful watching your children blossom. Nikki, I appreciate you speaking about the time it takes for projects. When you did your home renovation videos in 2018, I had just purchased home, it was lovely seeing your process. Lastly the sewing and painting projects turned out beautiful.

    Hi Nikki,
    Worry not. I went ahead and made the corrections to my beautiful Bird planner. It's an easy fix. The Apothecary Cabinet is gorgeous and perfect for sewing notions for Ayla. Your home decor is coming together nicely. Honestly, I can't over how beautiful that Mural is with that beautiful green. A little Bird told me that you will be visiting a notion store soon to fill up the drawers😉. So much fun!. God bless ya'll.

    • @TheLadyoftheHouse
      @TheLadyoftheHouse  Місяць тому +1

      Wonderful! Thank you, I took time to fill her drawers with all that she had. It’s amazing how many different things she needs for sewing and she was stuffing it all in 3 sewing boxes before, rummaging through it each time she needed something. It’s been a better solution for sure🌹

    Touching up the baseboards, painting the windowsills, the top of the nightstands and dressing table, the apothecary, organizing the stuff in it, changing the curtains, picking tiebacks, getting new rods, new buttons on your green dress...that is a lot. All of the little tasks really add up time and energy wise as well as results wise. I think that can be easy for us to forget. Fitting what projects we can into our daily lives is good enough. Love how you're creating a lush cottage in a desert too. It is inspiring.

    Look into waxing the surface of your dressing table after the paint dries. It may prevent the dinginess.

    • @TheLadyoftheHouse
      @TheLadyoftheHouse  Місяць тому

      The satin finish of the paint I used will prevent that in the future. The previous paint was chalk paint which I did use wax but I still had issues so this was the perfect fix 🌹
