I promise I won't make you wait so long between episodes next time 😁There was a BONUS "Extreme Declutter" video on Friday if you missed it: ua-cam.com/video/BbNcr6U2ZgY/v-deo.html and watch the full "Making Over a 100 Year Old Home" Series here: ua-cam.com/video/qvDivD842Y8/v-deo.html
Love your series about the process of your in law’s home transformation. I really appreciate how you are so respectful towards their style and you seem to take in to consideration the fact that there are also a lot of FEELINGS moving around when we do renovations, and not just furniture/stuff. I’m currently supporting my parents in their process of decluttering and organizing, and helping them create a less stressful space. It’s a very emotional process. Well just wanted to say thanks, because your videos are a great inspiration. Best wishes from Scandinavia👋
Oh, there have been lots of emotional breakdowns along the way. 💛 it’s such a tough process especially when you go through items from our parents parents. There’s no roadmap for it, ya just have to give it time and patience. I hope you’re able to work through all that to help your parents too 💛 I’m sure they are grateful .

Your mother-in-law's makeover looks fresh and clean. Charming and quaint. The quilts rack is a great idea. Repurpose what you already own for a fun new idea. I can almost smell the tree and candle in that beautiful house. Merry Christmas. 🎄
Loving this makeover and how your incorporating items they already have which encourages us to think on what we already have and sometimes we can upcycle it. Happy Holidays to you and your families
I love when designers incorporate items that homeowners already own. That's what I want -- I have plenty of family heirlooms, but don't always know how to bring it all together.
Revive, refresh & renew living space. Storage & display adding continued paint color along with MIL treasures adds warmth to the room. Love tree & where stockings are hung. Keep updating rooms.
Really lovely!! You've done such a great job incorporating their existing items. I coveted those quilts!! So glad you created a place to showcase them. This has been such an encouraging series for me, as I am (I imagine) close in age to your mother-in-law and have been in the throes of buying a house and moving. I'm sitting amidst the chaos as I watch, thinking, " I can do this! How would April approach this?" Looking forward to more.
What a calming transformation that honors your MIL’s style and treasured items! Some of the sections of the entertainment unit could also be used to store and display folded quilts.
You do beautiful well thought out work!! Your attention to detail is spot on, your MIL must absolutely love her cherished pieces displayed for her to enjoy using items she already had.. lovely cozy room!!!
Beautiful redo! I moved home to my childhood home this year. Living alone with memories galore. I'm finding stuff like my parents had that I loved on fb marketplace. I hosted family Thanksgiving with 16 of us. There's about 20+ more for next year!!!
Wow!!! The flood of emotions you get from Seeing those pieces show up with so many memories is crazy!!! (That happened to me too!) hope your thanksgiving was incredible with everyone 💛
Excellent work! I'm totally copying the quilts-on-pegs idea--I get so tired of folding throw blankets for my kids, but they can totally handle hanging them on pegs themselves!
Having the separate art studio is a great idea. This room now looks clean, fresh, comfortable and welcoming. Displaying the quilts, when she has such a treasure, is wonderful too..
I‘m always amazed at how respectful, gentle and considerateyou are when you change a place and how you incorporate the character of your mother-in-law. Those transformations feel real and it makes me believe that it will stay that way longterm. Congratulations on this beautiful new-old living room!
Nothing makes me happier than seeing those quilts on display. I’m a quilter. Quilters want to see their work used and/or on display. Thanks and great job on the revamp.
This is a huge inspiration for me as I don’t have much money but do have a lot of family antiques and pieces I’ve picked up over the years. I particularly liked the quilts as I too inherited a pile made by my mom & her mother.
So grateful you always promote shopping from your own “closet” or garage in this case. Giving life back to those objects. And means you can not only save the earth but keep the memories that are attached to them!
It’s also cool she had so many wood pieces meaning a lot of them just needed sanding, staining/varnishing or painting. Very easy way to upcycle unlike plastic.
Just subscribed! I really appreciate your sensitivity to the homeowner’s tastes and that her treasures are celebrated. The end result is unique and personal rather than something looking like a catalogue for a big box store. Your example helps us to think of new ways to use our own treasures. Best wishes from New Brunswick (East Coast), Canada! 🇨🇦
I love the cohesiveness of the 2 colors you picked out. It really is lovely. I didn’t like it in the first episode when everything was tan, but with decor it looks great!! When can you come do my house??
You and Jackson are doing a lovely job with his mom’s house…what a transformation. I had to rewind a couple times because I saw that stocking for Jackson and my brothers and I eerily similar stocks. I will have to go and get them out this weekend and post a picture. Thank you for sharing your adventures.
I’m assuming the picture is off center above the couch because the couch had to be moved over to make space for the tree? Otherwise, a nice looking room; cozy, airy and realistic!
NEVER NEVER EVER HANG ANTIQUE QUILTS THAT WAY. please go buy or make a quilt ladder and display them that way. Those quilts will be destroyed in a matter of months by hanging them.
I hate to be a downer, but I’m not sure if that is the best way to exhibit antique quilts. I would think it puts too much stress on the part that it’s hanging from.
Is there a barrier to protect the quilts? Wood and quilts don't actually mix well. Untreated wood can stain and damage them. Say this from the perspective of protecting that hard work! Ps enjoying your videos.
Its august now. And while I am watching the before and after, I wish it would be winter and i could sit on cosy couch, light up some candles and read a christmas book. :) You did very well.
Love your design and how you are using items that they already have. Just one thought. Storing quilts in the would box is not good for your quilts. Wood has an acid ph which will harm your quilts. The acid will change the colors and speed up decay of the cotton threads. I know that you will see quilts in wood cabinets. But hopefully the shelf has a layer of protection and the quilts are not touching any wood sides. Maybe you could put a basket or container in your shelf that would prevent any direct contact for you quilt.
I have watched all of your extreme makeovers and the home turned out so beautiful. Your husband and you are very talented and I also must say that you and your husband are also such a wonderful son and daughter-in-law to his mom and dad. It's rare these days and so I felt I needed to mention this. Super great job!
Hiii! I ended the original KOrea channel about 1.5 years ago and started this one instead💛 we moved back (temporarily) to America in July to see our family after being abroad 7 years💛💛💛
a beautiful improvement, so cozy and open. Having quilts, I might take the shelf out and put in a real quilt bar so that it will hang evenly, the way it's hanging now will pull the fabric out of shape, or you could drape them across the chair in the corner. I enjoyed this process and all the thought behind it.
It's all so beautifully done! I agree on the bar suggestion for the quilts, especially because they are antique. The older fabric is the more fragile it gets, and the same goes for the thread in the seams. By distributing the weight of the quilts evenly as they hang there will be less stress on the fabric and thread and the quilts will stay beautiful for many more years!
I wonder why, you did not use the pair of white book cases for the living room instead of the tv stand, and hang the tv on the wall. But anyways it was better the before. Thanks
Good question! those are her art studio ones that she wants to keep for her art supplies (she had it all organized I just didn’t show it)! We looked at mounting the TV but were really trying to not spend any money. I’ll share with you guys the budget soon and I think it will make more sense why we’re saving here 😛
I hadn't thought about that before until someone else mentioned it to and you guys are so right! I wasn't expecting that but it just looks so much better!
We just purchased a ruggable for our dining room. I had high hopes. I have to say, I’m disappointed. I don’t like how it feels under my feet. It’s very thin, which I get is necessary for a washable rug, but to me if feels cheap and looks cheap. We paid about $600 for ours, it’s large and I do not see the value. At all. I won’t be buying another.
@@SpaceMakerMethod I would love to hear what your experience has been! I feel like the odd one out because everyone seems to love them…I just don’t get it lol
I teared-up a little at the end! I loved this--all of it. Re-purposing chairs from one room into the other--I loved your storage for the passed-down quilts. What a lovely and inviting home!
Such an amazing project you both did to Jason’s parents. So pleasant to see that those antique collections throws have been shown effortlessly under the shelf. Well done.
I kept pushing to do this quilt corner project because I knew it would be perfect for her and it’s just so sweet to see all of special quilts up there!
Just love your channel and I am so glad that you really listen to the people you are helping, and keeping their items that they like. The room looks so cosy and warm and what a good job.
Wow, I am really liking what you did with her space.... I'm sure the Feng Shui is better as well.... it seems more spacious, yet still " cosy" and I adore those black chairs ! ( in as " I need two of those, that style!) ... Every room needs " a touch of black " to ground the space - whether it's frames, a lamp, an art object.... these chairs do that. And the Rug ! Beautiful choice . Re- arranging the furniture did so much, as well... nicely done, Miss April and Jackson. I'm sure she will have many lovely memories in this newly functional, lovely lounge . 👏🏻👏🏻🙂👌🏻💙
Thank you so much!!! And those chairs she actually found on Marketplace from Pottery Barn and they are just perfect! Can’t wait to show them in the dining room episode coming soon!
Quilts will be ruined if stored in wood drawers or containers. If the wood is not sealed, the acid in the wood will turn fabric brown, that cannot be removed and the fabric will begin to fall apart
I'm a little late to the game - just discovered your channel after seeing you featured on Erica Lucas' channel. This transformation has been nothing short of AMAZING! You have such a gift!!! Beautiful work - and kudos to Jackson and your in-laws for all the help. Oh, and I love seeing your sweet girl, Izzy. Fellow cat lover, here.
I have been binge watching you today. I started with your parents decluttering and am now here. You show love and respect when you declutter, clean and design. It makes those of us who are new to you, want to stay. I am sending you a hug from Mississippi. Thanks for spending the day with me....LOL
An old wooden ladder leaning against the wall to use to drape her antique quilts over the rungs would be a safer choice for the quilts. Those pegs will create stress points that can cause rips in old fabrics, especially when the full weight of the quilt is focused one stress point.
Great point! She was mentioning wrapping string around a bunching on the corner and then hanging them that way (it’s hard to type out what the idea is), but that way they’d be okay. We just left it like this for filming💛 they are her mothers and grandmothers so she’ll def be taking great care of them💛💛
Love the difference the wall color and white ceilings make and how the antiques stand out. Another beautiful change. This series has been so fun to watch. In the living room, the one thing I might have liked to see is that big cabinet painted black. It is a different era or something. It needs to at least match the black chair or be less prominent to me. Since I have a dog, I understand chairs and couches covered in blankets! lol.
Great Job!! I love it. And I almost fell over when I saw that black tree, I also did a black tree, everyone thought I was crazy. But OMG it looks amazing. Everyone loves it. I'll try and send a picture if I can get a good one. Merry Christmas, thanks for coming into my life!!!❤
The space is so beautiful & calming. There is a richness to the colors while the room maintains an open & airy feeling. Everything looks intentional & finished. Great job!! ♥ Happy Holidays!!
Such a beautiful space and I just love the quilt corner. I bet your MIL just loves her new space. I love watching your videos. I find inspiration and lots of ideas. I look forward to your next one. Oh yeah, the lighting is much better without the yellow covers. You and Jackson rock.
Whoo-hoo! Back to Mama Jackson's delightful home to carry on the makeover - I'm stupidly excited. Yes - Mama Jackson deserves her own art studio - she is obviously a very creative woman and I love the idea of her having her own space to art in. I also love that her treasures are going to be the focal point in her home. I keep thinking of the green-ware plate you used for your Christmas get together at you own apartment - it was beautiful and swanky and put me in mind of a stylish 20's type feel - and like so many of the items you've used throughout the makeover it was gorgeous and deserved to be seen - so yes to all those beautiful things being visible and valued rather than hidden in a box. Also - homes are for us and our loved ones, firstly and foremost, and precious little pups are included in that category and come a hundred miles before silly rugs from pottery barn no matter how expensive! Absolutely adored the after - such a welcoming soft gentle cosy space - filled with beautiful items and somehow the furniture suddenly looked elegant and expensive as well as supremely comfy. I hope your mum-in-law really loved it 😊
Everything you said 💛💛💛 and I hadn’t put it into those words until you said it but the furniture did look more elegant after! And you’re so right about our pets💛, they make it home no matter how much destruction they may cause at times. Our home would feel so empty without a tiny kitty always clawing (literally) for more playtime 💛
What a calm relaxing space. Everyone who uses the space must feel the peace and comfort it created after removing the art clutter. I hope the artist will be happy having an art studio in the garage. This makeover is so relatable..... Using what you have and trying not to spend a fortune while reaching one's goal of a refreshed space. Good job!
I’m so glad you find it inspiring! I wasn’t sure if anyone would like it since most makeovers feature buying everything new with extreme change… it’s so encouraging to hear that you guys are inspired by reusing what you already have 💛 thanks for watching, commenting and supporting the channel and series!
I absolutely LOVE this series! I especially like how you reuse old treasures that have been stored away for so long so that they can be enjoyed and reuse decor from other parts of the house! Binge watching all of them! Love them all but this one is my favorite. :)
The décor is cohesive, the vintage touch makes the room cozy. The only mistake I point out is the TV cabinet, which has nothing to do with the style of the room. White cabinets would be a better option.
We were thinking of spraying the cabinets but in the end we went with the easier, quicker option of keeping them as is, but spraying is definitely an option for the future!

It’s amazing how easy it is to overlook what we have and go straight to shopping 🤣 I have to remind myself of that too!
So cool that you get to use your talents to help create a better environment for your family ♥️

I love when designers incorporate items that homeowners already own. That's what I want -- I have plenty of family heirlooms, but don't always know how to bring it all together.

So cozy! And I think the garage will be a perfect art studio, especially with insulation and drywall. Nicely done!

What a beautiful make over! And so much work. But afterwards, you and Jackson get to spend quality time with family in that wonderful space
Favorite type series! Decluttering process AND eventual makeover…SO fun
OMG her cute lil doggo matches the new carpet 😍😍
🐶
I have been binge watching you today. I started with your parents decluttering and am now here. You show love and respect when you declutter, clean and design. It makes those of us who are new to you, want to stay. I am sending you a hug from Mississippi. Thanks for spending the day with me....LOL
U did soooo well🎄 I'm sure she will b soooo comfortable and cozy!!!!!🦋🍵🙏
I can already see the change in her in that space 💛💛
@@SpaceMakerMethod excellent !!!!!💕 u did well🦋
The ceiling made a huge difference!
And the rugs! We always put down a pad before placing a room
size rug down.
The room feels so much more spacious and calm :)
💛💛💛
The wall color is nice, but I preferred for the trim to all be white. It seems more classic to me.
I get that 💛
Just wow! I love her home. so cozy!
An old wooden ladder leaning against the wall to use to drape her antique quilts over the rungs would be a safer choice for the quilts. Those pegs will create stress points that can cause rips in old fabrics, especially when the full weight of the quilt is focused one stress point.
Great point! She was mentioning wrapping string around a bunching on the corner and then hanging them that way (it’s hard to type out what the idea is), but that way they’d be okay. We just left it like this for filming💛 they are her mothers and grandmothers so she’ll def be taking great care of them💛💛
Love the difference the wall color and white ceilings make and how the antiques stand out. Another beautiful change. This series has been so fun to watch. In the living room, the one thing I might have liked to see is that big cabinet painted black. It is a different era or something. It needs to at least match the black chair or be less prominent to me. Since I have a dog, I understand chairs and couches covered in blankets! lol.
the paint colours make such a huge difference
Omg the ceiling transformation is just… wow 😮
So lovely ! Such vision!!!
That look is fabulous!
Great Job!! I love it. And I almost fell over when I saw that black tree, I also did a black tree, everyone thought I was crazy. But OMG it looks amazing. Everyone loves it. I'll try and send a picture if I can get a good one. Merry Christmas, thanks for coming into my life!!!❤
I’d love to see if!
very good make over... !!
Love Love Love it all 👍🏻
Beautiful❤
The space is so beautiful & calming. There is a richness to the colors while the room maintains an open & airy feeling. Everything looks intentional & finished. Great job!! ♥ Happy Holidays!!
Thank you so much! I’m glad you liked it and thank you for commenting! Happy holidays!
Such a beautiful space and I just love the quilt corner. I bet your MIL just loves her new space. I love watching your videos. I find inspiration and lots of ideas. I look forward to your next one. Oh yeah, the lighting is much better without the yellow covers. You and Jackson rock.
Thank you so much for watching and commenting! Can’t wait to share the next part with you!
I’m shocked how much better the fans look with just the shades switched out
Whoo-hoo! Back to Mama Jackson's delightful home to carry on the makeover - I'm stupidly excited.
Yes - Mama Jackson deserves her own art studio - she is obviously a very creative woman and I love the idea of her having her own space to art in. I also love that her treasures are going to be the focal point in her home. I keep thinking of the green-ware plate you used for your Christmas get together at you own apartment - it was beautiful and swanky and put me in mind of a stylish 20's type feel - and like so many of the items you've used throughout the makeover it was gorgeous and deserved to be seen - so yes to all those beautiful things being visible and valued rather than hidden in a box.
Also - homes are for us and our loved ones, firstly and foremost, and precious little pups are included in that category and come a hundred miles before silly rugs from pottery barn no matter how expensive!
Absolutely adored the after - such a welcoming soft gentle cosy space - filled with beautiful items and somehow the furniture suddenly looked elegant and expensive as well as supremely comfy. I hope your mum-in-law really loved it 😊
Everything you said 💛💛💛 and I hadn’t put it into those words until you said it but the furniture did look more elegant after! And you’re so right about our pets💛, they make it home no matter how much destruction they may cause at times. Our home would feel so empty without a tiny kitty always clawing (literally) for more playtime 💛
OMG, your MIL’s living room looks beautiful! You did her proud!
😙
What a calm relaxing space. Everyone who uses the space must feel the peace and comfort it created after removing the art clutter. I hope the artist will be happy having an art studio in the garage. This makeover is so relatable..... Using what you have and trying not to spend a fortune while reaching one's goal of a refreshed space. Good job!
I’m so glad you find it inspiring! I wasn’t sure if anyone would like it since most makeovers feature buying everything new with extreme change… it’s so encouraging to hear that you guys are inspired by reusing what you already have 💛 thanks for watching, commenting and supporting the channel and series!
I absolutely LOVE this series! I especially like how you reuse old treasures that have been stored away for so long so that they can be enjoyed and reuse decor from other parts of the house! Binge watching all of them! Love them all but this one is my favorite. :)
Oh thank you so much! I hope you like the series!
The décor is cohesive, the vintage touch makes the room cozy. The only mistake I point out is the TV cabinet, which has nothing to do with the style of the room. White cabinets would be a better option.
We were thinking of spraying the cabinets but in the end we went with the easier, quicker option of keeping them as is, but spraying is definitely an option for the future!
