You guys ask quite a bit how I go about my process so I wanted to keep it 100% and show you the real deal. I am very excited to be wrapping up the LAST makeover in Holly’s home before my next chapter but wanted to break this #bathroommakeover down as much as I could since it’s going to be a detailed one. The first thing we have to do is get this back to its original form and dissect exactly what we need to do to bring her vision to life. Thank you so much to Care/of for sponsoring today’s episode xx.

SUCH a different video tonight but I'm excited for you guys to slow down, chill, eat ice cream and get to know my process. Nothing professional about it besides my cheetah robe - love you guys always xx.
Are you thinking of doing a live chat on UA-cam soon?
To remove wall anchor. You will need a hammer and a something on the wall to protect the wall from the hammer.
Step 1: place screw into anchor halfway
Step 2: get a hammer and guard and tug the screw out
I loved this so much. Thank you for taking us through your journey with this bathroom and giving such great tips in your “look back”
Loved this video! I just have to say, I am so damn excited for you to get your very own place and make it Rachel Oasis! I love how you’ve done Holly’s house but to see a transformation on your very own happy place...yep! Definitely need/want that. Hope that you’re doing fantabulous Rachel!
The hardest thing in the world: Admitting our mistakes to others. Bless your heart.
🖤
Proud of you Rachel ❤
Appreciate the mistakes you included and how you fixed them to align with your lifestyle! Love that honesty ❤️
Thank you!
Agree 100%
Love how transparent you are about mistakes and obstacles in your process! It’s always so helpful and inspiring
Thank you so much!
100% right, floating shelves are what the people want, but I personally find them so inconvenient and glad to hear you say you aren’t personally a fan lol
I am not a fan - I hate 'em.
There's only a couple of people that are a instant watch for me and you definitely are one! Love you!
Thank you!
I second that!
Yup, totally agree. You inspire me girl!!
Oh my gosh I love how real this girl is
Why thank you!
your honesty is one of the many reasons why I keep coming back. it's so easy to DIY and feel defeated when it's not perfect, and it's good to know that most everything in DIY world is still fixable.
It's amazing what you have learned and accomplished in this house in just a few short months and the burnout is SO real. It's a humbling experience admitting that mistakes were made and changing what is necessary to create a space that's, not only beautiful/functional for Holly, but one that you can walk away from feeling proud of. Keep at it!
Thank you!!!
shocked that you don’t actually like floating shelves 😂
I HATE THEM!
@@LivingtoDIYwithRachelMetz 🤣🤣🤣 same
I’m so curious to know what you like besides floating shelves
I feel like I like them because that’s all I see
So now I need other options 😅
@@LivingtoDIYwithRachelMetz I don’t trust them. I’ve always thought that it wouldn’t be a good Idea to put anything really heavy on them, which was borne out when you pulled the bottom one off and I could see how one of the supports had loosened.
We’re putting in some open shelves in our new downsized home and the architect has them as floating shelves. They’ll be holding teapots and mugs and I am not confident that will be safe. Any thoughts about what would be the sturdiest type of support for open shelves?
@@LivingtoDIYwithRachelMetz me too!!
I love the relaxed videos you've been putting out! You seem so at peace. Thank you for showing your process!
Thank you for noticing!
It's a relief to see that not ALL DiY makeovers come out 100% "perfect" or the way you expect it to be. I get super bummed about my mistakes. Your videos help me feel that, not all my ideas or my decor/reno has to be permanent or be perfect. Thank You for always being real.
"Shurtain Cower"
-the ever inspiring Rachel Metz
It's what I'm here for.
@@LivingtoDIYwithRachelMetz 😂👏🏾yes of course
Thanks so much for talking about both diy mistakes and design/planning mistakes. (And plans that were not mistakes but our own growth and changes meant they no longer work). This video made me feel a lot better about mistakes I’ve made.
That makes me happy. That was my goal testing this new format!
Drinking wine and eating cookies while watching. We appreciate the growth and honesty. Cant wait to see what your true style is in your own place 💕
Fingers crossed! Thanks for watching!
Okay. Loving this entire video. We all need to admit when we mess up. There is no shame in mistakes, but there is no pride in shying away from them.
I enjoyed the format of this video. Sometimes I wonder about the "future" of made-over rooms. Love that we get to see that sometimes from you!
Wanted to test something new out.
a girl who know how to use tools is hell of good youtube content. i am glad we find you and we decorate our homes with your ideas!!
Thank you for watching!
Gotta love a chatty video. Ready to see the new design.
Your next chapter is going to be my favorite. Ready to see how Rachel does life for Rachel.
I love that you show your mistakes. As an amateur diy-er it makes me feel better about the learning process. One thing though is that i was hoping you would have had the "makeover" video as the focal point and the voice over as the video in the corner. It would have been nice to see what you were doing and talking about enlarged since that was the focus.
My bad! I didn't even think of that.
I love your honesty, but most of all I am grateful to you for showing us what did NOT work, so I can avoid mistakes in my own projects. I also appreciate that this was a long-ish video and you took the time to explain everything so thoroughly.
Rachel, one thing I like about you is your willingness to talk about what is not working, and what others have pointed out and been correct about. That it is about learning and teaching, sharing our collective knowledge, not about putting anyone down. :)
Thank you so much!
You’re seriously one of my favorite people to watch on UA-cam, you just seem like such a genuine down to earth human bean and I appreciate that 🤍
That is my goal! Thank you!
Props to you for showing how you change your mind and re-engineer. That is a natural part of the process for me. Sometimes it’s frustrating, but I feel so much better if I let it evolve!
The old adage form follows FUNCTION. This is so me. I have all these ideas and then have to fix what I fix.
Exactly!
Oh fixing stuff I make pretty to functional is the story of my life! I'm over it. I want to be able to utilize the space rather than the space takes good pictures.
eating the ice cream and on pinterest is such a mood
🖤
I love how this woman expresses herself. No edits. Just so true to herself.
and this is why we stan Rachel metz! name another DIY UA-camr that would admit their flaws like this and show the changes. as always great work, even better explaining and im so glad that I found this channel to show how makeovers actually work/age.Also couldn't be happier to hear "on the way out" not because Hollys house makeovers have been bad but because I am so ready to see what you do in your own home!!!
You are the sweetest!
I forgot to add, I redid my guest room months ago and I made the mistake and painted the room all dark colors. I realized how sad and gloomy it looked a few months later. As you know, renovating rooms is not cheap. I decided to tackle it in early november. I painted the room a mauve type color with soft lilac accents. I am in love it feels so refreshing and it just makes me smile. The room itself has a view of my garden so it's just a beautiful sight. Your makeovers really inspired me because your style is so chic and accessible. I read somewhere that plants help make a room vibrant, refreshing, and live. So i added a few plants and boy did it help. I'm actually thinking of becoming an interior designer, because the feeling of having your vision of something coming to life is just amazing. I love you so much and you've given me so much inspiration.
This made me so happy!
Oooooo!!!! Did you give schmood a kiss upon his face????!!!!???
Thats a big change right??
Excellent work as always! Thank you for working so hard to make content.
I personally have been thrilled with the quality.
Not to mention how inspiring it all has been for so long.
Learning can be so difficult. But you have managed to make it look flawless. (Despite this video lol.)
Thank you. Xox
You make me so happy!
This video is me like changing my room 5 times a month
Live and learn!
Relieved to see the plants have been moved! For anyone struggling with plant lighting, the bets tip is to make sure your plants have a view of the sky - then you can adjust their position from there.
I found your channel 3 days ago and I've been binge watching ever since. I moving soon and needed tips on the ideas I have and you've help so much. Thank you! -New Subbie!
Yay! Thank you for the love!
It’s a learning process , it’s good that you go over and fix things if they don’t work for the space . Can’t wait what your new place will look like 😃
🥰
Lol Shurtain Cower 😂😂😂 I am dead!!! I love you girl! 😂
Haha
Can’t wait till you have your own house, I’m sure it will be fabulous 🌸
One day!
I don't come to your channel for trends, girl I come for your honesty, your mistakes, and your rocking point of view! I love the way your channel is going and growing and I love learning along with you as that is REAL LIFE
Thank you so much!!
Thank you for your honesty and transparency. It is comforting and inspiring that even someone as skilled and experienced as you has to sometimes call a do over. Makes me believe I can take a chance and not be so hard on myself if my DIY projects don’t turn out just right. Be well!
That was my goal!
I am so thankful, normally you never know in a makeover what actually worked!!!
Sara Nena DIY
Appreciate that xx.
New holiday drinking game: Everytime Rachel says “fun fact” we take a shot ?😝😝🤍 who’s in ?
Haha I commented that back to someone last night 😩🙃
@@LivingtoDIYwithRachelMetz great minds think alike 😘 great video ! Can’t wait to see part deux! Have a great day Rachel 🤍🤍🌱
Personally I’m also over the floating shelves trend. Can’t wait to see your ideas for alternatives!
Also thank you for the example and authenticity of admitting when you are wrong! Everyone makes mistakes, and it’s very realistic to revisit an old project and question what/why you did what you did.
Excited for you! Can't wait to see you work your magic (skills) for your own place finally! Rachel you are a boss! You have a big heart, and its time for YOU! Love you and God bless all your endeavors.
@18:59 💕 I can't hear or see anything other than that spectacular cheekbone contour! You have it All!
At first I thought the Care/Of package was a Nike Sneakers Box. :)
This video made me laugh so hard! You are adorable Rachel Metz. None of us will deny it and neither should you. ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
Haha thank you!
Can't wait to see how you make over your own place! I want to see what you like... not what is trendy. I feel like my aesthetic is a mix of industrial, eclectic, and cozy. Those things don't even seem to go together but that's what I like. Black metals, colorful quirky things, unusual furniture, cozy textures, and dark wood accents. I want to see what Rachel likes.
I can't wait either.
Proud of you mamas!!!! You're so wholesome and inspiring. I love that you share your fuck ups with us i dont do diy or interior design but i beat myself up less when i fuck up w work cause it feels a lil more human
I bought that stud finder after the first video. Even when you mess up, you still help out. ❤️
The beautiful moment when you see a Rachel Metz video comes out right before you were about to go to bed
Thanks for the love xx.
You have such a pretty smile!! Have a wonderful night.
You are so kind!
Can't wait to see what you do when you get your own place 😊🤗
Dear Rachel, I really appreciate your sincerity. I know it's hard to admit a mistake, but you're a strong personality and you can be a role model for everyone else here on UA-cam.
loved this video! It's easy for me to forget that mistakes can happen to even the best makers. Really showed the reality of this process! 🖤
I love that you reflect, learn and grow. Even better that you bring us along with you, you're the best.
Loving you xx.
So happy to have come across your page. You’re the friend I would consult for their honest opinion about everything 🙂
Thank you!
I love this vibe! It’s so genuine and helpful! Can’t wait to see how the bathroom turns out! ❤️
Thank you xx.
I love the honesty! I recently did a closet makeover and I had your videos playing the whole time!😊
Thanks for watching!
So now i NEED to see what kind of shelves you actually like!! I’ve been waiting for this moment 😂😂
To get anchors out of the wall, screw a screw partially back in and then pull the screw out☺️
Thank you!
I love your honesty. When I tackle home projects inspired by you it gives me more confidence! I'm glad you are vibing and healing after a tough year. Looking forward to seeing your own space when that happens :)
Thank you for your love and support xx.
Love this new format!! thank you! And thank you for rocking that hairstyle! gives me so much confidence to see that on someone else than me!
Even tho you make some mistakes along the way, you are still a GREAT diy and designer! Also the ending revel is everything i love it! ❤️
Love seeing the design process!
Yay!
Do what you like. Do the shelving you like. Who knows maybe people will like it? But most of all you’ll feel better.
🖤
Your best video! I had some other things I had to do so I was quiet a few months behind on your videos. I figured I would just work my way back but two minutes into the kitchen video you sounded not quiet you. I like your new voice! The bathroom makeover-makeover shows so much growth! You Grow Girl!!!! And hopefully I will see you on BAIB!
Thank you love!
I just love how real person you are. I wish you get your own place soon to give us the real projects that you like. All the best Rachel. Keep going. 😍👏👏👏👏💖🎉🎗🎁
One day!
Take a shot every time she says "fun fact" 😂 all love 💙
Yeah Boyee!! I really dig your room makeovers. So the fact that you have a bunch of feedback to take into this room the second time is gonna be Dope. Until da next one, stay Golden Ponyboy 👍. Dirty Jersey out!!
I’ve seen the Rust-Oleum paint that goes onto tile and I’ve seen a lot of people like it.... I kinda want you to use it to see your opinion 😂
Love the re-do, love your channel and love your video-editing style
Looking forward to see the new make over ^^
Me too!
Viewed 3/6/2022: If you do ever try out wood slatting over tile, make sure that you are using as water-resistant wood as possible, such as acacia wood or cedar. I know there are other kinds of extremely outdoor water resistant wood, but I can't recall them at this particular senior moment. Those types of last outdoors as shingles, siding, roofing, decking, and in patio furniture that is left out in all kinds of weather, so they should last in a shower. And I'm sure I don't have to mention that great ventilation would be an absolute necessity and you would need to use it daily when showering or soaking in a luxurious tub.
I love yout work. Since you want to retile, maybe consider vinyl or stick and peel? If that could work that'd be awesome. Goof luck with the reno!
Thank you!
I have to watch this tomorrow, because it's late and I'm tired. 🥱
Sleep well!
“that’s exactly how you learn” 👏
Love your Hudson Bay blanket on your bed!😀
🖤
You are so funny. 😂 I want that leopard robe!! Thanks for another amazing video Rachel! 🥰
Appreciate that xx.
The comments: "You did a thing wrong"
Rachel: "You are like a little baby. Watch this" *releases 20 minute video about the many many things she did wrong*
In all seriousness love it that you do these self-reflections on your projects, they're actually really useful. And it's great to hear you're so close to being in your own place soon!
I appreciate that!
8:12 YES PLEASE ! The UA-cam game is kinda boring. Every one is doing the same trend but you are definitely not boring Rach ! I follow you because you have something special about your style, your editing, you honesty. So go ahead !
Thank you so much!
Just fyi for other bathroom makeovers: you can re-paint tile!!
I haven't done it myself yet, so do your research. It gives off *very* strong fumes during the process. But just wanted to share this as an option for anyone looking to avoid a big demo while still making a big transformation. Cheers!
Can you make a video of your skincare routine?? Your skin is flawless 😍
Thank you!
I love how you look like one of my favorites, AOC, here
Re:AOC She’s a really talented person. I don’t always agree with her but I greatly respect her dedication to her constituents and her desire to make the world a better place. She has a great future!
And she's beautiful 😍 w perfect skin 😍 ✨
Can’t wait you see do some things for you with your preferences 💕
One day 😩.
Thank you for being so honest. Even an expert like yourself makes mistakes too.
Watching your videos have inspired me to hang up bathroom mirrors for the first time. So defeated that I made a couple extra holes on the wall... Shed a few tears but I'm going to fix it!
You got this!
I legit might be investing in the stud finder that you recently got - I have one but it's not really reliable and I don't know if it's the brand or because my house was renovated by the owner in a DIY fashion. Example: the space right above my toilet my stud finder thinks the entire width is a stud which made it very nerve wracking trying to install shelves.
Very surprised you don't like floating shelves but then I remembered a lot of your makeovers have been for other people. Can't wait to see what your DIYs will look like when you get your own house and the only person you have to please is yourself!
Zircon is definitely worth it! I can't believe how many false negatives I was getting.
Dont have icecream but I really enjoyed watching this with my cold pizza lool !
* those small shelves looked fantastic and I might use the exact same for my skincare , but inside my room instead , am just germophobic 😂
*THANK GOD u removed that shelf over the toilet 😫😂 i honestly loved the entire previous makeover minus that situation ... cant wait 4 the new re-makeover 😍
Thank you!
I cleaned my closet today and found one of my old care/of boxes from last year, made me look up the site to see if it was still around. When you said they were your sponsor it made me pause! how weird that I just re-found them today then watch this!!!! It was like a when google knows what your thinking but via youtube!
That's so strange!
@@LivingtoDIYwithRachelMetz it's a sign I need to take my vitamins!!
I absolutely love this style of video!!! Loved your reactions 💕😂
Thank you!
First off, your non existent under eye bags are ignored ;)
2nd, your try, you see if it works, if it doesn´t, congrats, you are a human being and you just learned something that did not work ;) sometimes we need these fails to really see that it might not have been the best idea, and by showing it, you make ppl like me feel a little bit better about all the mistakes I´ve made, that even pro´s like you can get something wrong, and that it´s ok :)
I really appreciate you for both showing what didn´t work and how to fix it 💜 things can look amazing and picture ready, but that doesn´t matter if it´s not livable, and sometimes you won´t know that until you´ve lived with it.
Thank you for taking us along :) can´t wait to see how this one ends up :D 💜💜💜
Loving you xx.
You are so hard on yourself sometimes. :) I'd rather you say that the space wasn't working instead of " I did it wrong". Language is very powerful. With you leaving, it makes sense that you would want to make changes before moving out and changes that will suit Holly's new use of the room. Not sure who's been pushing you to explain yourself in every video. I guess you want to direct people to not criticize but to instead be more supportive. I get that. You are putting yourself out there. Not many people are brave enough to do that.
When I am doing my place, function comes first then beauty. It takes a while to figure out what is working and what is not. I have learned not to compromise for cheaper options. You end up spending more in the end because the piece often doesn't work and just causes frustration. But sometimes just moving things around brings a miracle moment that works. I find less is more when it's the right peice.
FYI -I think I need to get a stud finder ! :)
Thank you for being real ❤️👌🏼🙏🏼
Thanks for the love.
Hope youre having a great day!
You too!
You are human after all ❤️❤️❤️
Love this! Thank you for your realness
Thanks for the support xx.
idea! Maybe make the shower curtain rod higher (very close to the ceiling) so it can make the room look a lot bigger! And i’tll cover like the stuff on-top of the shelf above the window 🤔 just an idea! You’re amazing 🤍
Just like I talk about in the video 🖤.
I have never trusted stud finders. I use the knock-then-test method using a skinny finish nail to test where there is resistance behind the drywall.
Definitely not the way to go! You may hit a pipe that was closer to the drywall for whatever reason. Be careful.
Y'know. I like the black hallway, but yes it is definitely really absorbing a lot of light and can feel scary at first. But i see it as such a unique canvas for wall art like. Idk how to describe it but like since you've mentioned that she loves plants, one i could have ceiling art painted onnit - painting of a large Brazil pothos vine.
Very simple 2 tone colour but it can be done sparsley. Idk I'm just thinking out loud.
I'd love to design it and in the future share a link to a pinterest post to describe it better.
🖤
Same girl! I despise floating shelves , they create too much clutter for my liking 🙈😅 I like everting to be tucked away a in a dresser 😂 nice and tidy haha
I agree!
I love your design process! What program were you using to bring the pictures together?
