As always, this video feels like a cozy hug. Yes, please make your watercolor series available! 🎨🖌️
That moment of you holding your son in a sleep sack... oh I remember those warm toddler moments...
Your home is so beautiful. It is both bright and cozy! Your lemon painting is lovely.
Thank you so much!
Your painting looks fantastic in your kitchen!
Shannon, oh how I love your "lemons in a bowl" painting.
This whole vlog was super fun to watch.
Your backyard redo was one of my favorite projects you've done also.
Thank you Julie! I hope you are doing well.
The detail of the wood grain in your lemon painting is fabulous!
Thank you!
Love your painting ! You have so much talent😀👍
Your paintings are so beautiful , your home is full of light and so welcoming xx
Hey Shannon, great video! Your lemon painting is beautiful! I love adding unique pieces to my home, and original art is such a great way to do that! I also like moving things around in my home, which has prevented me from buying new pieces. Thanks for sharing!💖
Thank you so much!
@@shannontorrens1 I would love to see you and Joy do a collaboration! You're both wonderful homemakers and have several other strengths in common.
Your watercolor painting of lemons 🍋 is beautiful! You’re so talented!
Thank you so much 😀
Wow, definately see all the improvements you and Grant he ave made to your home and yard. It is absolutely beautiful and inviting.
I am sure the decluttering journey made such a difference.to help see what you wanted to acheive. You both have so many wonderful gifts and talents.
Yes I would love citrus fruit paintings ! I’m from Orange Co. Calif but have lived in Ireland 21 years. Those would remind me of my original home ❤
I love you home. It’s so bright and airy.
That lemon painting is beautiful
Shannon, I think you are a genius to think of putting the arm chairs in front of the fireplace and have the table where you put it,love how it looks
I make the broccoli and cauliflower like you do, it’s so easy
Shannon your home is just so beautiful! Colors are so calming and happy! I love lemon art!❤
Beautiful home!! I love the simplicity of it!!😊
Love the lemons in a bowl & the overall calm & peaceful video of time spent doing chores around the house & resets. Glad you like the KitchenAid mixer, I love mine. You can get other attachments for it too!
What a beautiful backyard! Also your house looks so bright and inviting!
Thank you so much!
Absolutely beautiful painting, you're so talented Shannon.
Your house is so cozy ….i LOVE your painting it’s beautiful 😊❤️
I love how you add subtle colors everywhere to your minimal home. I love color and feel like most minimal home tours are usually white and grays. Thanks for the inspiration and motivation.
Thank you so much!
It's amazing how long a dining room table will last if you take care of it. Ours is 20 years old. I put a furniture protector pad over the top. Then I cover it with a pretty table cloth. Lastly I put a clear plastic table cloth over that. My table still looks brand new. The surface is shiny & no scratches. I remove everything for special meals.
Your home is lovely.
I love the painting of the lemons! You have a beautiful home!
Thank you so much!
Beautiful. I like the color of the walls in the room where you folded the laundry.
Thank you! 😊
Thank you Shannon. I absolutely LOVED this! You are a wonderful homemaker. I love seeing what you're doing and how your home looks - both inside and out. It's so inviting/welcoming. Thanks for sharing. Have a terrific week.
Thank you so much! I hope you have a wonderful week too.
I’m so happy to see a beautiful family in a beautiful home living a beautiful life.❤️🙏
Aw thank you, We try =)
Shannon, love the lemon picture, so real.❤
Lovely job on the fabric folds in lemon watercolor. That is a challenge for me.
Levi is precious ❤
Such a lovely painting Shannon. Love it x
I'm so happy to hear you didn't have any flooding. What a relief. Your lemon painting is beautiful, Shannon! Wow, it won't be long, and Levi will be out of that crib. He's growing so fast.
Thank you so much! I know he will be out of that crib in probably 6 months or so. It's crazy how fast it's all going this time around.
Your painting is beautiful!! Wow! What talent!! I enjoyed this.
Thank you so much 😀
I'm glad to hear you came thru those dreadful storms safely (and I hope your mom too). I love your painting in that nice white frame!
Thank you so much! We were lucky the storm didn't flood in our area =) I hope you are doing well.
Your lemon painting is beautiful. It has so much depth and interest!!
You have a lovely calm home ❤️
Thank you so much!
Years ago my Mom gave me a kitchen aid. I love having it. I have been using the dough hook to knead my bread, if I don't use the bread machine. It really helps. I am not sure exactly what my style is. If someone asks, I always say Early garage Sale. LOL. Your lemon painting looks really nice in your kitchen.
Haha I don't think I could put a name to my style either. Light and bright, with some color and lots of random things haha, Is there a word for that?
Beautiful bright and cozy home! Love the lemon painting!🍋🍋🍋🍋😊
I love watching your videos! You & your family are so sweet & warm!❤❤❤❤❤❤️
Your painting is beautiful
Painting is very beautiful!! Do more!!
Shannon, your artwork is delightful. How fun to be able to decorate your home with your own art.
Thank you!
Wow, you're quite talented Shannon. Love your lemon painting, it's perfect in your kitchen! 🍋💛
Thank you so much!
You are so talented, Shannon. Your painting is beautiful!
Thank you so much!
Maybe Grant can make walls around your washer/dryer so sawdust doesn't get on your clean clothes. Since you live in a warm climate, do you have a clothes umbrella for outside drying?
It's funny you mention that about the walls, we are trying to think up a way to make a separate laundry area. We don't have a clothes hanging area they are very uncommon here, but that is another thing I wanted to add. =)
Kia Ora Shannon, love love your painting and video!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you so much!
Yes, love the citrus paints
Beautiful 🍋artwork … would enjoy seeing your technique anytime you can share!😊
Thank you!
Your home is really beautiful!
Thank you so much!
I would love if you showed more of you painting sometimes. I love your lemon painting and it will look so beautiful in your kitchen. You are talented. That is something that I would like to try sometime. Yes, please do more fruit paintings. I was just thinking how we buy lemons in the store regularly. How I would love to have a lemon tree or lime. You are blessed! Thank you for sharing!😊
2 things. 1. I can't believe I've been subscribed to you for over 4 years. 2. Levi is so big now and absolutely adorable!!!
Wow thank you for being here!
The lemon painting is perfect in your kitchen. Do your kids like to do any artwork? My sons was a prolific "artist". Today he still makes things but his medium is wood, instead of crayola markers. He recently repurposed the wood from a pallet, (made of walnut of all things), to make a cut out of their favorite lake, then applied to a lighter colored wood. Something personal like that really makes a house more homey🤗.
Thanks for sharing.
My kids do love to draw and paint too. It's so fun!
Your littlest boy is your mother!!! ❤😊
Love the painting! I'm currently working on a watercolor painting of oranges for my kitchen.
Wonderful!
You are a wonderful painter! I love your picture with the lemons!:)
Thank you so much!
you are so talented, your painting is beautiful
I really like the still life! Very talented!
Thank you =)
I love the lemon painting! You are so talented! This was another great episode. - Belinda
Thank you so much 😀 I hope you are doing well.
Shannon, your lemon art is beautiful but I think your are hiding it by the fridge, I think it would be nice on your shelf by the canisters, would love to see it in your art store ❤
I was thinking the same thing, but that area where the canisters are gets a lot of traffic. I might have to move it to somewhere I can see it better. =)
How lucky you are! You are a stay-at-home mom and are able to do homemaking during the day. I've always had to work at a job, which is exhausting at times.
I do feel lucky that I get to work from home, but I do my homemaking during the day and I work all night LOL. I do have a full-time job doing this and blogging. =)
I love your painting. You are very talented 🍋
Thank you so much 😀
Hey Shannon. I've been catching up on your videos that I have missed. You and your mom are so creative and talented. I don't have an artistic bone in my body. I cannot believe how big your youngest son is now! Wow they grow up fast right? One suggestion and one question: When my kids were young I had them put their dirty laundry in the hamper (or bag in your case) right side out. Easy for them to do and saved me a step when folding and putting away clothes. Question: where did you get the two chairs in your TV room? I believe they recline if I remember correctly. Thanks!
Thank you! Yes those chairs do recline. I found those at Costco about 4 years ago. =)
Lovely home and beautiful painting❣️
Love your painting!
Thank you! 😊
Good job! Yes to your paintings !
I love that large art work piece (that was in the clip after you showed your table). Did someone in your multi-talented family paint that? It’s awesome!
I love your lemon painting as well! Would love to see you do more of these, for sure. 😃
I painted that too =) A lot of the art in our home was painted by me, my husband or my mom LOL
What an amazing artistic talent you have to be able to add your own custom artwork to your kitchen !
Shannon, I’ve noticed your growing number of houseplants. I think plants make a home so pretty. I have lots of them too. Donna
Haha yes! A lot of my plants are grown from offshoots of my current plants. I love plants too much haha
I would love a bread making video ❤
That painting came out lovely!
Thank you! 😊
Can you please share where you got your beautiful bedspread? It's gorgeous 😍
I found that years ago at Home Goods.
Your videos are like a warm cozy hug. Needed this ❤️
Thank you! I hope you are doing well.
Mmm! I can almost smell that banana bread 😋 I am inspired by your beautiful home & I'll bake today! Makes the house smell so good too! Thank you Shannon ❤
Love your lemon painting!
Lovely❤
lovely painting! you're so talented. and yes I can relate to the outside living space - thats how we are with our second story deck, as soon as its warm enough we set it up and thats where we pretty much live until autumn ♥
Thank you! It must be so nice to have that extra outdoor space, we love it too. I hope you are doing well.
Great video Shannon! Your lemon painting is 🤩 ♥️ thank you!
Oh thank you!
Hi !! I love your house and your kitchen!!
Can you post the link to your bread maker? 🍞
Thank you! I just added the link to the bread maker in the description. I hope you are doing well.
Loved this video! Thank you!
This is motivating me to pull my oil paints out. It’s been a long time😊
Go for it!
I love this video, Shannon! Your videos like this are so relaxing for me to watch. My house was simplified, but I had a rough pregnancy and delivered a baby last year and got way behind on… well, everything. Do you have any advice as to how to catch up again? I’m completely overwhelmed.
Hello Kristina, I can relate to this because when my youngest was born I had an emergency when I had him and it took me so long to recover. My only advice would be to take your time and know that this is just a season of life and it will get easier. Just know that your health is more important than a perfect home. ❤
Lovely painting Shannon. xx
Thanks so much 😊
Beautiful!
Thank you!
Love your painting! It’s Beautiful ❤
Hello Shannon! I really liked the painting, it is a great idea to put it on your etsy store 👏🏼 Greetings
Thank you! I hope you are doing well.
Love your lemon painting! ❤
Thank you! 😊
Love your painting
Thank you!
Great job on the painting!!!
Thank you! 😊
I love your lemon painting! 🍋 Thank you for the vegan banana bread recipe. Do you make it with spelt flour or do you substitute? I can’t find spelt flour in my area. We eat plant based so I’m going to try substituting applesauce for the coconut oil. I know that the texture will be different, but hopefully the bread will still be tasty! 😋
I forgot to mention that, I do make some substitutes. I use regular canola oil ( I have never tried applesauce). I also use regular all purpose flour for all the flour and it always turns out great.
@@shannontorrens1 thank you so much for replying! I have some white whole wheat flour that I’ll try. Hopefully soon!
❤
My boys used to spread out the Brio train tracks all over the living room. So fun and engrossing and creative. I’m curious about the blue tape on the floor. Is that for a project?
It's fun for them to create a whole city LOL. That blue tape on the ground is where the flooring is not level in our home! The previous owners who added onto the house didn't pour the foundation level so they had to make this weird connection and the wood piece that connects it keeps splintering off. We need to completely redo the floors at some point.
Please share some vegetarian meals. Many people are observing Lent and Fridays are no meat. Would love some ideas. When you remodel your kitchen, consider drawers for all the lowers, you will love it! (I wanted to mention when I noticed you opening a drawer below the oven). It really is the small things that make a homey environment. Nice job!
I love the idea of drawers instead of cupboards in the kitchen! It would be so much easier to get everything. I will try to share more of what we eat, I normally don't share too much because it's always hit or miss if our meals turn out good lol.
May I ask where in So Cal you live? I lived near Temecula for years, retired to Texas.
We live in La County.
Did you say 15min for your banana bread? I made some yesterday and it took 50mins x
This recipe I use cooks for about 50 minutes too. =)
@@shannontorrens1 ah I must have misheard you. Banana bread is just the best. Making more at the weekend as it didn’t last long! I make mine gluten free for my daughter :)
you dont have to reply to people asking 'where are your kids?', I mean what question is that? if they are here to watch someone elses kids - there is sth very wrong with them, You dont have to show children to make content interesting and valuable
I agree =)
Look forward to my Sunday morning coffee with you, always such a treat! Your home always looks so tidy.
Your backyard has really filled out nicely. The little guy is getting big and so cute!
Thank you Linda! I hope you have a nice weekend.
You are very talented! I love your painting!
Thank you so much 😀
