For those that might like the mirrors, I think placing the bottom edge "above" the baseboard would make them hang more flush against the wall and take away from that bent look. Otherwise, great video with good ideas.
I thought the same thing when I saw how the mirrors were placed! Great idea but it needs to be placed above the baseboards! Love the faux brick though! So pretty!!!❤️
My father in law did this to the remodel of his garage and turned it into the den. The realtor told us it was the best garage remodel he had ever seen. That style of paneling looks so real especially with low lighting. It also brought the value of the house higher. Great job
Great tutorial for the faux brick. This would be good for people who are looking to add more industrial/loft vibes. I really think that mirror needs to go. It looks like it’s about to collapse in on itself
I have to agree. Before it even went to the full shot I said to myself, how is that going to last overtime? The mirrors are going to bend. And sure enough, the full shot looked exactly the way I thought it would. I don’t think you’re going to get away with not using plywood for that project. Great idea though😉!!
Yes, I agree re the mirror. She would have been better off putting them together to heavy duty duck tape first, then adding a thin sheet of plywood glued to the back using a heavy duty glue. That would have turned it into a really lovely sturdy piece.
I noticed that too but it’s not hung up. She can hang it up shooting nails into the frame around the very very edges. And it would look great if she was able to make more “partitions” on the mirror maybe by cutting up another mirror frame for the job.
This is by far one of the best hometalk tutorials I've seen in a while. Something new and different instead of the same thing over and over slightly changed. The tedious paint process was like the cherry on top 🍒 beautiful!
Thank you so much I saw those panels at Lowes a while ago and though just what I need but not sure how to do it. Thank you a million times for this video and your measurements are just for me !! It really doesn't take a ton of money to decorate just imagination and your end result proves it yet again !!!
I’ve been eyeing these brick panels at Home Depot to put on one of my living room walls too. Was thinking about painting them all white. Yours looks great!
@Lisa Garrison yes except for the seams, you would have to patch that area then paint over it and add the white paint then dry/wipe but I think it would be easier to do most of it first
Your faux brick is AMAZING ! Instead of the mirrors I would have added a wooden floating wall shelf with a mirror above it that was in an old wooden window frame = 4 squares 🙂
Steel plated corner flat brackets for holding mirrors together OR remove the mirror frames(remove caulking around mirror with blow dryer heat & pull it off carefully), use clear mounting mirror clips to hold on wall... Making you own mirror design..
Looks fantastic!!! Your creativity and imagination for that space is incredible! I very much like your respect for the drywall behind, as you used finish nails instead of liquid nail. Thank you for sharing your process and incredible results!
When I was rehabbing a 1970 mobile home, I wanted to put this stuff over the fake wood paneling. In the end, I used brick wallpaper, more cost effective for me. Love this! Thanks for sharing! Love your shirt too!
I did a tutorial for these panels awhile back and you did it really similar to how I finished mine! Love these panels they can completely change the look of a space.
This looks great and your color mix with the Apple Barrel paint was right on target. I am getting ready to move into my own home in Monday and I have an electric fireplace to take and right now it looks great inside the fireplace of my present home, but there is not a fireplace where I am going. I told my dad just yesterday I want to watch some videos in how to make an authentic hearth. I never thought of also making a brick wall. Funny timing because I did not go to UA-cam tonight with the fireplace in mind. I just ordered a couple home accessories from Amazon and thought I wonder what the UA-cam world is doing today. Your area is awesome and you cannot tell that your brick wall is fake. Awesome job! Sincerely, Rebekah in VA
You can also use peel & stick brick face wallpaper. It comes in assorted brick face designs---red brick, variegated, white brick, distressed look, etc. The panels in this vid look like they are thicker and have a more realistic raised 3D texture. Gives the room a cozier, earthier feeling. I would stiffen the mirror piece with a board, it looks like it has a bend. Overall, great ideas, very creative, and nice results from a DIY project.
I did something similar in my bedroom but used a good quality, removable wallpaper in a brick print. Even from just a couple of feet back, it looks like the real thing (and much easier to install!)
A few years ago, I tackled a wall with 35 yr old red brick board. I lightly brushed over a coat of thin white paint, leaving red accents lighting up through. One & done. Refreshed, quick, easy & cheap.
To be honest, when I saw you spackling over the seams, I thought it would look like complete sh*t; however, I never thought about painting them! In addition, when you wiped the paint away, I was floored. It looks awesome! I am going to do that in one room of my house Thanks!
I grew up in the 60's & 70's. I'm happy to see paneling making a comeback. Put that stuff up and you don't have to paint the walls. My aunt had paneling in the den from 1966 until she sold the house about 40 years later. I loved that house. Just remember to dust the walls. Painted walls need to be dusted too. I use a Swiffer. 🌎☮️🖖
Thank you for sharing your beautiful project 🥰. I've been wanting to do the brick on a couple of areas for sometime, as we have 1950s wood paneling in our living room and MUST do something! Thank you again 😊
While watching the trouble you were going through to connect the panels I was wondering how this was going to come out you are an absolute genius this came out beautiful
Good for you. It doesn’t inspire me (couch potato that I am) but it does my heart good to see people like you using your imagination and creativity to feather your own nest in a delightful way. Bravo!
Very esthetic, pleasing to the eye. Increasing the value of the space, nice ... I think the candle flickering in the mirror adds to the abeince...thank you for sharing your work, great inspiration.
For all that is holy attached those mirrors to the wall LOL - they look like they are one slammed door or gust of wind from being a "shattered mosiac mirror project"
Great work! you were blessed that your end walls were evenly straight. did the similar project and had to do a wood moulding to hide un-eveness love HD panels but used Lowes type has a dark red brick type with black mortar (it was for a theater room so it's a man cave thing) great again!
I had a couple of these panels in the cellar of a house we bought and wanted to use them creatively so I hung them on the wall that my kitchen stove and range hood were on. I painted them a gorgeous semi matte charcoal and the look was amazing!
Changing you!! I gleaned the best ideas from this video! In fact I got 2 gears ideas for bedroom fireplace and a t.v. room also, to hide an unused door....I'm so excited!😂
Well... isn't that what those brick-panel sheets were designed to do? I mean... she used that as they were meant to be used. Am I missing something? HOW IS SHE BRILLIANt???

The brick painting was a nice touch. Matching it to the wall painting gives the feel of having brick walls through out.

The mirror is scary....that is going to fall apart
I thought exactly the same about the mirror.
love everything about this except the bent mirrors. I would have just hung a decorative one on the wall.

Wow she has a lot of patience, I’d never be able to do all that. Looks great!
Love how it all turned out..however, I’m not a fan of the mirrors..
There is another way that takes even more patience... Painting bricks.. time consuming but still cheaper than those panels
I know right. I would have a faux let's do my brinks party
@@GBrimstone but the panels have a feel to it like real bricks so it looks richer than just painting bricks on

Give some credit where credit is do☝️☝️☝️ Amy Lynn deserves some recognition ✊✊
If the mirror was mounted to the walls it would be perfect! it really does Add dimension and depth to the wall!
Amazing ! There’s nothing like woman’s touch to warm up a home❤️

Or you could use real brick.
@@willymaykit1482 or brick slips
The brick paper looks bad.
@@willymaykit1482 using real bricks would rise the cost and time. So this wouldn’t be $30.00 makeover.
@@valann3718 I would much rather spend the extra time and money. Otherwise it would bother me every time I look at it.
I love how she took the extra time to line the bricks up. It takes a little extra effort, but looks so much better!
What a thing of beauty this video is. All the unnecessary bits have been whittled away and I am in awe.
I love this. I am going to do this at my house. Thanks for sharing.
We used to do this in the 70's too.

Nice! That turned out well. That looked like a cute dress too.

Looks great. A lot of work went into getting the special look on the brick. Good for you!
What a fabulous finish for the wall. I've not seen brick panels like that in our hardware stores here in Australia.
Absolutely lovely! I believe I’m going to do this in my kitchen dining area to sit at a park… Thank you so much for sharing you did a great job!
Not a fan of the mirrors but the brick panels are Great !! Great job thanks for the video
Amira really has distinctive demention and depth to the room!
That was AMAZING! I learned a lot and am going to give your ideas a try. Thanks so much!
Loved the IN & OUT SAUCE touches! 😆
Chandelier is needed. But much better than when you started. : )
That's hilarious, you could still see the plane joints😂🤣😂
The mirror would be a good idea attached to a more sturdy backer like thin plywood. It looks like its going to collapse.
That wall is GENIUS!💪😍
Love the mirrors. A friend who is a interior designer used them in the dinner room to give the room a dimension and better lighting. ❤️❤️
You have a lovely voice, and you’re very creative. Well done!
Wow! What a difference. The dining room looks bigge. Great job!r
Awesome, I love the closeup of the technique to hide the seam. Many thanks
Great ideas! I'm moving soon, & this will make my new home more "homey, warm and welcoming...THANKS !! 😃👍👣
That was a lot of work but the end result was like WOW! Congrats on a fantastic job.
I really questioned the brick wall outcome but glad I stayed for the reveal. Perfect for rentals! ☺️
Good for you. It doesn’t inspire me (couch potato that I am) but it does my heart good to see people like you using your imagination and creativity to feather your own nest in a delightful way. Bravo!
Love what you did with the faux brick but question the safety of the mirror.
OK...absolutely fantastic. Really, really great. Congratulations to you for the idea and for carrying it out so beautifully. 👏👏👏
Wow! You did a fantastic job it looks beautiful in your home. Thinking out of the box definitely worked in your favor
Love the brick wall affect. 👍🥰
Beautiful great room Thank you for sharing have a blessed day stay safe and healthy. 🙏❤🙏❤
Oh my, this is so inspiring…..now I need a wall because I’m so inspired.
It looks great really opened up the space added dimension. 💚
Yeah u did that ! really nice, i understand why you went through the extra work painting the brick and wiped it down nice touch 👌
Very cool treatment on the faux brickwork. I like the look of that very much - well done.
Good job looks wonderful
Very esthetic, pleasing to the eye. Increasing the value of the space, nice ... I think the candle flickering in the mirror adds to the abeince...thank you for sharing your work, great inspiration.
