    You are such an amazing woman! Your energy level is beyond anything….don’t know how you manage all you do. So…I’m nominating you for an Academy Award for being such an inspiration for ALL WOMEN! Let’s go ladies. We can do this 👏🏻👏🏻

    This feels like when I try these projects. I'm so glad you included the delays for items, the mistakes, things like the sewing machine not working, the curtain rod falling, etc. It happens to me all the time and I always wonder, "Why can't I get things done without all the trouble like everyone else?" But now I see, everyone runs into bumps just like me. It just makes you more that relateable and makes me want to keep going even if I run into trouble.

    Give Dollie a treat every time she sits on her new couch. She will eventually get to where that’s her favorite place. Those mammoth curtains are so beautiful and perfect. And WOW what a difference painting the handles made! 🤍🤍🤍🤍

    Oh my! What a time you had. It's good to see that those minor setbacks even happen to you. You showed us "not" to give up till the job is complete. Absolutely beautiful transformation. I just might try putting the grid on my patio doors.

    Love the grids and people do say you are creating more pictures to see through. Dolly is lucky to have the dog bed and eventually I believe she will like her own space. Especially when the room is full of people. The drapes are also perfect. You did an amazing job.

    My daughter had the same problem with her dog wanting to lay on the back of the couch to look out the window.

    Natalee, I remember when my mom made this type of drapes and how aggravating that tape and those pins were. I can’t believe these are ‘coming back’ into style! I will never mess with those things again. Of course, we laundered them at home. You made it look so easy, though.and, it looks beautiful at your doors. Congrats, Dollee, on your new sofa, you darling girl.

    I just love watching your channel! The sliders look fantastic with the grid pattern. And as for Miss Dolly, perhaps if you put her little blanket on the chair/ pillow where she likes to perch herself it will get her smell on that blanket. And you can transfer it to her bedding. Or take one of the boys used t-shirts with their smell on it and put it on her little sofa so she is drawn to it. Good luck. Keep us posted in the future about Dolly moving to her location.

    Natalee, I so enjoyed this episode, well of course, I always do. But I felt so bad when I suddenly laughed out loud when the rod fell. Then when it fell again I laughed even harder. After all the other issues and that happening just was laughable to see it happen to someone else besides me. And the look on your face. I really enjoy your show and the things that you make and do. I just want to sit down with you and Lisa and talk decorating and crafting. I'm glad you get to live so much closer to each other. I bet you love it. Keep up the wonderful work. May the next project be less eventful. 😁

    What a transformation Natalie! I love the grids because it removes the concept of the regular patio sliders and the drapes and cornice board are just gorgeous. I would have given up on the drapes probably at the beginning but you are one patient and determined person. My children said I became a different person when i started sewing and it wasn’t meant in complimentary way. Dolly’s bed and blanket are just adorable and I hope it helps if not I guess you better invest in a good upholstery cleaning machine. 😊❤😊
