The tone in your voice Elise when talking about the brick 😄 You’re so done with people telling you what you shouldn’t do. As someone that studied and worked in historic restoration specifically in paint, I can confirm that whitewashed brick has been a thing since ancient times and painting mass produced furniture isn’t the destruction of a sacred relic 🙂 Good luck with all your projects you do a great job
I said something similar but should have read some comments first because you definitely said it better. Elise telling people in the kindest way possible to shove it was the final step into adulthood. No turning back now!
I loved it when you said this is happening have your cry now lol 😂 totally think it’s the right decision it does make the room very dark the brick lovers should be happy you’re keeping it lol I’d have plasterboarded over it 😂 though I do like a lime wash it’s a lot of effort and I’d just want it done. I think it’s looking great 👍🏻
Wow, what a difference. I think people might have panicked because "white-washing" was interpreted as a solid white painted brick wall and they didn't understand you were just wanting to whiten the mortar between the bricks. You did a great job!!
You totally made the right call with the brick wall. What a difference! Your room will look so much brighter. Having moved into a home where someone smoked for years, I understand how discolored walls, etc can be. You cannot wash that away. You seem so happy with where you are in life and I love that. Being 71, I know that life can get really difficult at times. You have come a long way since about a year ago. You have a lovely home, your business is going well and you seem very settled in. You are an amazing young lady and I think you have many great things yet to achieve Love from Chicagoland.
I watch these types of videos to see changes people make in their homes and love watching how they accomplish the goals they have. I will never understand why some are so critical of the process of change in someone else's life. It is not your home or your process. Enjoy the video, you do you.
Good Afternoon! Great idea re you brick wall. Excellent, and the happy factor as well as smoking issue will be gone. Happy weekend from Upstate NY. Cool and breezy, Autumn in the air...❤❤❤
I was happy when you mentioned that you were going to lighten that brick. I have done this many times over the years and never had regrets. You do you--it's your house, your haven. I laughed when you told people to "cry if you have to". Funny woman! 🤗
What a difference whitening the wall has made Elise. It has made the room so much lighter and brighter. It has WOW factor! I'm so happy you made lots of sales recently. You are going from strength to strength. Thank you for a great video.
You don't have to sew the curtains; you can use doubled sided adhesive hem tape with an iron to get the length you want. Much faster😉 Projects look WONDERFUL. Answer to who are you? Only you can decide, but on the outside looking in....you are a wonderfully creative Bohemian who is a hardworking independent business owner❣️
What a bold choice to lighten your bricks, I don't know if I would have had the guts to do that but WOW it looks so good and fresh. That looked like quite an effort too. You are really breathing new life into your house. Fortune favors the bold!
Wow! I wasn't sure about the brick but when you got halfway through it really lightened up your living room and it's going to look fantastic it already does! Great decision!
I didn’t realize there was controversy about the brick wall, but you are so kind to acknowledge it with no offense taken. You have a big community and there are bound to be conflicting opinions! I love the white-washing and I love that you are enjoying the process without stressing yourself!! The lightened wall will coordinate better with the “Elise Bush Look” plus I imagine it smells fresher and reflects light better. Many Americans don’t probably understand the tricks and traditions used in your part of the world to maximize the light. You are so cute preparing for some extra Autumn/Winter hygge with a brighter wall and cozy curtains. Elise! You have come so far with your home since you bought it! What an inspiration. One answer to who you are is: an artist who looks at the whole world as an experiment in her expression. Fabrics, fashion, and clothes; home decor and gardens; work and social media; time with friends and family and food….everything is a chance to be creative for EB! XOjennyinseattle
I love how the wall is looking. Perfect time to do it as the days shorten. Looking forward to seeing your curtains up to cosy up the space. See you next week 🥰
White-washing the brick not only brightens up the room. I think it will end up being the perfect backdrop to your decor style. Can’t wait to see it completed!
Elise, I love your brick wall! It's exactly as I imagined it to be, (improved) since you moved in. I'm with you, thinking it was a dated eye sore, that could be updated and a featured cool part of your wonderful ambiance of your living room! I'm so happy (and proud) for you, and your gusto to be happy and carry on as an independent, healthy and happy woman (i've watched you since 2020)! You remind me of me, 40 years ago. It's a joy to watch you thrive! I'm a 60 year old married woman- about to start a new adventure with my hubby of 33 years! Cheers to you Elise! Life is always changing!!
Wow the light compared to the dark parts is wild! You can definitely see how the darker part just absorbs all the light! Beautiful job Elise! It’s your house make it the way you want it!! 💕💕
I can see why you want the wall brighter! It looks great!! It really brightens the space! Your home, your style, your rules! Follow your heart!! Beautiful! Love your style!!
Loved your video today. The interest was held from first to last. The variety, the colors, the continuing change of the wall color. I loved it all. The purple blouse was a knock out in the end. Laurie from Idaho
Elise, the wall is surprisingly beautiful. It really did lighten up the room. No surprise though when realizing you have great style and design and it shows in your home and cloths. You shine , especially by your kindness. 🥰
Love the wall and the outfits you modeled. You know how to mix and match colors, hats, jewellry and makeup so well! And your look is unique...Now that is true style, not trends and fads. Thanks for another fantastic Vlog Elise! 🌻🌻🌻
I love love love it. The difference it has made already! Took a dark looking space and made it so much brighter while keeping the different tones! Needed to add this: It’s her space! She lives there not you. I’m sure not everyone would agree with the design choices in your homes but it’s that, your home. Just because we are privy to her life does not give you the right to guilt or convince anyone. I recently painted my house a pastel blue from white because it made me happy didn’t hear a peep from my friends or family. Idc what people do to THEIR homes and neither should you. The internet is strange.
The brick looks really beautiful! The white wash makes each brick’s different color really pop! You can really notice the variety of colors, where you really couldn’t before.
Its a different look than I got. I just used paint w primer included. I painted my grout, then I used water and paint mixture and just used a dry brush to put on. Old towels to wipe access off. I could see the color coming thru but I used my hand sander lightly in places. I also traded my neat trim for raw edge wood trim, I also white washed darker than wall ( bright like grout ). I was going for old world look but got country farmhouse look 😂. Its OK......Your home is looking more and more like you every video. Beautiful 🏵🌹🌷🌻🌺🌼💮🌸🐛🐌🐜 Enjoy these last of few warm☀ garden days we have. 🐍 It will be time to start all over in a few months. I can't wait, now its 🔥 campfire time, hot ☕🍵☕ cocoa time, rather cool this evening in Tennessee. Time to pull out the camper! Great time of year to buy a boat for next summer. Hehehe. One project at a time,Lori. I can't wait until next video. You will amaze as always. Thank you, I so enjoy your video's 🌷.
Mortar (putty) washing instead of painting. An inspired choice. Lightens the wall and the room, yet retains the warm colours of the wall. Someone suggested a mirror. An over the top circular gilt framed one would be stunning.
You rock💥🫶. Your brick wall is amazing and I am so impressed with you young lady. I have made a few comments prior to this one but being a 75 year old widow lady I just have to say you brighten my days. 😉😍
Cameras do a good job of lightening the space, so I think in real life the wall would look even darker than it does to us. Always a fan of lightening it and it's already making a huge difference! Looking forward to the finished look and of course to gallery wall time! ❤
I think doing this to the wall will totally change your room and make it so much lighter and happy feeling, You are doing a great job and I think you are going to really enjoy the change. Way to go Elise !!
Haven't seen it yet and I already know I love it. I like the bricks -- I also like lightened bricks. I also like painted bricks. To me, all bricks are pretty. But they are YOUR bricks, darling. It's YOUR home. That is what you paid all the money for. So you don't owe anyone an explanation. You can also feel free to ignore them. If people don't like it they will either get over it, or they won't. To me, that says far more about them than it does you.💜
Elise I’ve been watching you for a long time now and the wall is looking amazing. I love your style and ideas which take me back when I was your age. You give me inspiration to do these kind of things again. A young 70.
I too enjoy seeing her artistic vision come alive-as a mom oat 78 with 4 grandkids it’s fun to watch a young lady with so many talents create her cozy nook as her home. Reminds me of me at that age!! 👏👏👏
Oh my goodness! That's just what the brick needed! I wished it to be lighter from the beginning but wasn't sure how it could be done without full on paint. Oh goody goody, I love it!! ❤
I was struck especially by your lovely sensibility which is simply expressed in this video at 19:39: you mentioned your desire to enjoy the process of working on your project, and mindfully interjecting that you noticed the delightful birds in your feeder. Thank you for sharing the heartfelt joy you find in life's simple gifts.
Much better painted Elise! The room looked dark as it was,now it’s much lighter I think you could go even lighter as it really brightens the room up & makes it feel airy. Great job Elise 👍😌
Yes! I think for many people, it’s automatically a ‘crime’ to paint any wood or brick, etc. but that myth is a reaction to a time when too many people didn’t consider preserving the integrity of old furniture and buildings. Not all wood is worth restoring and not all brick or stone is of rare value. One rule doesn’t apply to every circumstance. In this case, the white-washing is a major improvement!
Who is Elise Buch??? A woman w/ a Vision! On a Mission! Her Soul is on Fire w/ Creativity!🫶🏻 ❤ theWall makeover! Definitely lightens the room!Bravo!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
"Cry a little if You need to" thanks for the smile !! I also love Your Tree clothes drying method ...You will get a lovely energy added to Your things ..that is my belief and love to do that, and i love seeing how much Your Garden changes each week ...so gorgeous! I would love to grow some "Honesty" or "Silver Doller" Plant...the flowers are beautiful and the seed pods are so magical once the outer layers are off and make wonderful decorations inside ...plus Abundance!
Wow your wall looks fantastic. Great choice. Really lightens the space. Ikea to the rescue. Love you in the Royal Blue some said purple blouse? Beautiful. Enjoy seeing laundry hanging in your trees. Who are you from the reporters perspective. You are a small woman owned business owner who specializes in vintage fashion from around the globe. That's all he gets. Stand up, shake his hand and thank him for this opportunity. While you are walking him to the door. Enjoyed the video.
I wasn't sure about the wall, Elise, but wow! Why do I doubt you? You've never done anything I didn't love even though I have often not been convinced beforehand, but you've done it again. Brava, Elise! Brava! 🙂
Same! I didn’t know it would work but it’s perf! Btw if you’re into nyc vlogs but if so, you might like mine. Swing by, take a peek and stick around if you like. I’d be sooo grateful. 🙏
The wall looks great & lightening brings out the various tones in the bricks. It’s also good for vision impaired people. Everything you attempt is magic!
I love it! It does look like what you would see in a New York City appartment picture! I love natural brick but lime washing made all the difference! Wow!❤❤❤❤❤
it looks fantastic! really ties in your warm 70s colours with your white light cottage vibes. also you look stunning in the last clip - the combo of that blue purple shirt with the maroon beret and your lipstick !
I love ❤the white wash on the brick. Please continue to make your home beautifully you. Everyone’s taste isn’t the same… I would have done the same thing that you did with the brick. 😊
The difference to the brick wall is like night and day. You have an excellent eye for what will work whether it's vinrage fashion or home decor. Tryst yourself and dont worry about what viewers think. It's not our home. Hello from Australia
I'm thrilled you're lightening it. I bought a house with a dark brick fireplace in the corner. I painted it white and the entire room became bright and warm. It was an amazing change!
The brick looks great. It is much brighter and lighter and suits your sunny, optimistic personality much better. People should just trust you when it comes to.knowing what's best for you.
You are so amazing! You are such a hard worker and so talented. The white wall is lovely. You have done an awesome job. It is going to make a beautiful room. You should be so proud and I imagine your family are very proud of you. ❤
It’s your house. You can do whatever you want with your house. I don’t understand why some people feel the need to tell you what to do or not do or even say mean things to you. 😢 I enjoy watching your videos very much! These are all your design choices, and if it makes you happy then it makes me happy too! ❤ Your videos are such an inspiration to me especially since I’ve been so stressed lately. I look forward to your videos because I know you always put a smile on my face! ❤ Elise, you do you! Do whatever you want because it makes you happy! ❤
Darlin, this is ur house and u do what ur heart wants…. So make the change and love it… ur heart will thank u…. Everything u do is just to amazing… greetings from McAllen Texas
The wall looks Amazing.Great job can't wait to see it Finnished 🤗 Love the jackets in the autumn shoot 🤗also Love the way you stick up for yourself 🤗💐🍰☕ Love Sue ❤❤❤🇬🇧❤❤❤
Girl it’s your house your sanctuary ! You do what you want people will always criticize! I have the same brick in front of my house and I will be white washing them after I pressure clean them! Good luck and make sure to open the windows
I can’t wait. When I see a video by you I get so excited!! I love the white wash in the brick. I think it looks quite natural. And you’re right - it will brighten up that room. Can’t wait Elise. Loves ♥️🌹🤗
Your living room wall looks so great. Makes so much difference in the room look of the size and light. My suggestion is to put a love seat couch against that wall. That would look great.
The wall looks amazing and makes such a difference to the light in the room. It's a massive space and I think it's best to do a chunk at a time instead of making yourself sick of working on it. Your lovely home has and still is coming together really nicely. I love it ❤
The tone in your voice Elise when talking about the brick 😄 You’re so done with people telling you what you shouldn’t do. As someone that studied and worked in historic restoration specifically in paint, I can confirm that whitewashed brick has been a thing since ancient times and painting mass produced furniture isn’t the destruction of a sacred relic 🙂 Good luck with all your projects you do a great job
I said something similar but should have read some comments first because you definitely said it better. Elise telling people in the kindest way possible to shove it was the final step into adulthood. No turning back now!
Thanks and nah “A choir is made up of many voices, including yours and mine." ~Nazarian@@CleoHarperReturns
hahaha 😄 I've learned that I have to include that bit before I get started with a controvercial project anywhere in my house 🥰 @@CleoHarperReturns
Exactly it’s her house she can do whatever she wants I mean no one helps her pay her mortgage ! People are ridiculous
I loved it when you said this is happening have your cry now lol 😂 totally think it’s the right decision it does make the room very dark the brick lovers should be happy you’re keeping it lol I’d have plasterboarded over it 😂 though I do like a lime wash it’s a lot of effort and I’d just want it done. I think it’s looking great 👍🏻
Wow, what a difference. I think people might have panicked because "white-washing" was interpreted as a solid white painted brick wall and they didn't understand you were just wanting to whiten the mortar between the bricks. You did a great job!!
Whitewashing is not solid white😮
Lol, "cry a little if you need to" 😂😂😂. That's the right attitude, Elise 👍🏽💯
It made me chuckle. A subtle, classy way to tell people to get over it if they don’t like it 😂
You totally made the right call with the brick wall. What a difference! Your room will look so much brighter. Having moved into a home where someone smoked for years, I understand how discolored walls, etc can be. You cannot wash that away. You seem so happy with where you are in life and I love that. Being 71, I know that life can get really difficult at times. You have come a long way since about a year ago. You have a lovely home, your business is going well and you seem very settled in. You are an amazing young lady and I think you have many great things yet to achieve Love from Chicagoland.
More positive nice people like you are needed in the world x
Looks great! Your home, your choice so enjoy doing exactly what you want!
The improvement you are making on the brick wall is amazing!! Great job!
Thaaanks!
The wall is just Beautiful ! It brings so much light. Can't wait to see the curtains ! Have a Wonderful weekend Beautiful Dear !🌹
So much lighter now it matches your personality !
The wall is looking so much better already. Look forward to seeing next week. A large mirror would also help bring light in 😊
I watch these types of videos to see changes people make in their homes and love watching how they accomplish the goals they have. I will never understand why some are so critical of the process of change in someone else's life. It is not your home or your process. Enjoy the video, you do you.
The brick wall looks already the way you wanted. And it lightens so much the whole side of the room. Good job ,Elise.
Such a dramatic change ❤❤❤ I enjoy watching your lovely house transformation ❤ Great job 😊
The brick wall is turning out beautifylly....I love your choice !!
The wall is looking fantastic. Much more bright and modern. Always decorate how you want, it’s your home ❤
Good Afternoon! Great idea re you brick wall. Excellent, and the happy factor as well as smoking issue will be gone. Happy weekend from Upstate NY. Cool and breezy, Autumn in the air...❤❤❤

You don't have to sew the curtains; you can use doubled sided adhesive hem tape with an iron to get the length you want. Much faster😉
Projects look WONDERFUL.
Answer to who are you? Only you can decide, but on the outside looking in....you are a wonderfully creative Bohemian who is a hardworking independent business owner❣️
What a bold choice to lighten your bricks, I don't know if I would have had the guts to do that but WOW it looks so good and fresh. That looked like quite an effort too. You are really breathing new life into your house. Fortune favors the bold!
Wow! I wasn't sure about the brick but when you got halfway through it really lightened up your living room and it's going to look fantastic it already does! Great decision!
I swear these videos have changed my life!! I legit am so passionate about making my home so cozy and romantic 🥰
It looks beautiful. I love it ❤. I also love brick but it can be dark, you brightened it so much but also preserved the integrity of the brick. 👏👏👏
I didn’t realize there was controversy about the brick wall, but you are so kind to acknowledge it with no offense taken. You have a big community and there are bound to be conflicting opinions!
I love the white-washing and I love that you are enjoying the process without stressing yourself!! The lightened wall will coordinate better with the “Elise Bush Look” plus I imagine it smells fresher and reflects light better. Many Americans don’t probably understand the tricks and traditions used in your part of the world to maximize the light.
You are so cute preparing for some extra Autumn/Winter hygge with a brighter wall and cozy curtains. Elise! You have come so far with your home since you bought it! What an inspiration.
One answer to who you are is: an artist who looks at the whole world as an experiment in her expression. Fabrics, fashion, and clothes; home decor and gardens; work and social media; time with friends and family and food….everything is a chance to be creative for EB!

Great way to summarize who Elise is!😊
I love how the wall is looking. Perfect time to do it as the days shorten. Looking forward to seeing your curtains up to cosy up the space. See you next week 🥰
Everyone's take on beauty is different. The wall looks great and the garden is a little bit of paradise looking at it❤
White-washing the brick not only brightens up the room. I think it will end up being the perfect backdrop to your decor style. Can’t wait to see it completed!

The brick looks amazing and there's a VERY LUCKY MAN out there in the the Universe who's waiting patiently to meet you.
It’s so much brighter in your living room already! 🙌😁👏🏻

I really like it Elise! You successfully made it lighter and still preserved the character of the brick. I always love your videos
Yes!

Not all wood is worth restoring and not all brick or stone is of rare value. One rule doesn’t apply to every circumstance. In this case, the white-washing is a major improvement!
Wow even the little test spot made an improvement!!

I'm thrilled you're lightening it. I bought a house with a dark brick fireplace in the corner. I painted it white and the entire room became bright and warm. It was an amazing change!
I have learned over the years watching your videos to trust your decisions on colors!!
I love it. You still know it's brick but so much more life to it.
Great work Elise! Your wall is looking fantastic! I can’t wait to see it fully completed!
“…cry a little if you need to.” 😂 You do you Elise! It’s your home, and you are making amazing decisions for your home…and you! ❤❤❤
I'm crazy about the technique you used on the wall!💗I would have never thought to do that;great to learn something new!Looks antique-y!
The brick looks great. It is much brighter and lighter and suits your sunny, optimistic personality much better. People should just trust you when it comes to.knowing what's best for you.
The wall looks FANTASTIC!!! Good call on that one!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love the wall lightened! Still see the bricks, but so much lighter!
That brick wall needed to be lighten up.
Good job.
The wall is turning out very well! I can see a huge difference in the light in your room already.
You are so amazing! You are such a hard worker and so talented. The white wall is lovely. You have done an awesome job. It is going to make a beautiful room. You should be so proud and I imagine your family are very proud of you. ❤
I think the wall looks so nice brightened up, can’t wait to see the curtain put up.
I am retaking over my home in tandem of your new home experience. Love to watch both of our spaces blossom.
It’s your house. You can do whatever you want with your house. I don’t understand why some people feel the need to tell you what to do or not do or even say mean things to you. 😢
I enjoy watching your videos very much! These are all your design choices, and if it makes you happy then it makes me happy too! ❤ Your videos are such an inspiration to me especially since I’ve been so stressed lately. I look forward to your videos because I know you always put a smile on my face! ❤
Elise, you do you! Do whatever you want because it makes you happy! ❤
Much better! It bounces the light and make the room look much fresher. Always trust your instincts.
I love how you decide something and just go for it! The brick wall looks great : )

The new brick wall really works w the rest of the room!
I love the wall❤
Girl it’s your house your sanctuary ! You do what you want people will always criticize!
I have the same brick in front of my house and I will be white washing them after I pressure clean them! Good luck and make sure to open the windows
I love when you say “ autominal “ and “Summerly “ so cute
You have made a very good choice! The brick wall is very dark and to brighten it is very wise
You have done so much with your home. I love it so much. The brick treatment really lightens up the room. Beautiful like you Elise.
I can’t wait. When I see a video by you I get so excited!!
I love the white wash in the brick. I think it looks quite natural. And you’re right - it will brighten up that room.
Can’t wait Elise.
Loves ♥️🌹🤗
The fact that folk feel the incessant need to tell you their opinion on your own hoose kills my soul. The brick looked amazing 💚🌻
Your living room wall looks so great. Makes so much difference in the room look of the size and light. My suggestion is to put a love seat couch against that wall. That would look great.
The wall looks amazing and makes such a difference to the light in the room. It's a massive space and I think it's best to do a chunk at a time instead of making yourself sick of working on it.
Your lovely home has and still is coming together really nicely.
I love it ❤
