Thank you so much for watching!! I hope you like this one. It was a lot of work and definitely one of my top favorites. What do you think of the dark color!?
I love the darker color!
I love both the navy and white. Did you truly only need one coat?
Carissa you are KILLING IT! I loved the whole outcome! Congratulations on working with the home depot & PPG! I always look forward to your videos! You're so easy to watch & you're incredibly inspirational💕 Keep up the stellar work 🤗✌🏽
Beautiful... I love it
My Ria.lity I mentioned this in the video but we did a primer and 2 coats. It what we’ve done for all our rooms
Everybody knows, measure twice, cut 4 times, measure one more time, cut twice. Perfect fit, works every time.
I guess I am not everybody cause I didn’t know. Thanks for the tip.
@@atiyyahcarol4937 Do not, I repeat DO NOT follow my advise. LOL
😂
Always look forward to your comments Nick!🤣
🤣🤣😂😂
Carissa! These built ins turned out fantastic! big congrats on your partnership with home depot too! xo
Ah thank you so much!! Huge goal!
Absolutely love the color choice, you did such an amazing job. I would stain the table and chairs the same as the desk top you can always add cushions to them to give pops of color.
👀Clicked on video bcos the dark wall caught my eye. 😉Find black cabinetry to be quite handsome, but fear it could be too imposing.
⚓The Navy is beautiful, esp. w/those brass sconces, hardware & naturally stained desktop bridge. Brilliant merchandising w/combo of those lighter & more natural elements. Like the "good day" signage that brings in black element too.
💚 Your idea of staining the table to match sideboard/ desk seems highly appealing. Like the notion of 2 long benches stained to match. Not a fan of lopsided table w/chairs on one side only.
Maybe introduce a striking, but simple centerpiece? My preference would something in black that spans more width of table surface. Something that will make the table a destination in & of itself. Maybe a long iron/metal candle holder; a long slim oval or rectangular shaped tray featuring a trio of potted succulents (1 bigger pot, flanked by 2 smaller ones in a row); Or, an ebony stained chunk of wood w/holes cut in for tealights.
👍Do like idea of two black end chairs in the above configuration. Maybe the other two chairs of set flanking some sideboard that they can "borrow" back for dining area when needed.
If they wanted more formal dining, they could always temporarily slide one bench under desk bridge/sideboard & the other against the entry wall. The latter could be left plain or dressed like a console table.
🤔Personally, I need more navy (or blue) in that room. Maybe the back of the front door. As well as navy painted frame of wall art or mirror on entry wall (opposite the built-in). Something to help balance that major visual color weight. And, make it seem more cohesive & deliberate.
Maybe a small trio* of navy (or indigo blue & white) decor items on that white cabinet. Something to help eye draw my eye around with that intense blue color. That's just my take.

The shelving somehow makes the room look bigger! The dining room looked great before and I'm way too scared to do a color that dark, but wow it looks amazing!
I agree! I for sure it would make the space feel small but it did the opposite!
Hey Jenny! Go for the dark color! Dark cool toned colors receded from the eye so they make walls feel "pushed back" some what! :)
OBSESSED with this! Especially because the blues and greys in your rug compliment the wall and make it super cohesive! For me, I would have probably changed out the rug to something really bright or a muted light blue bohemian printed style rug, painted the chairs white, and added some padded seat cushions in either the deep blue accent wall color or a black to ground the space but keep the floor look bright. Just a thought! But i absolutely love the way this room turned out, whew so much work for so much payoff!
We’re actually swapping the rug soon! I had trouble picking one for awhile but I think I’ve got the perfect one 🤞🏻
@@CarissaCleansItAll Ahh CAN'T wait to see an update video!!!!
Watching the unit being spray painted was sooo satisfying ☺
True
I love fiddles! They need bright indirect light and a well draining soil. I have 18 currently and all thriving! 😄
Fiddle leaf figs need bright light and low water. Once they are in a place they like. DO NOT move them. They will drop all their leaves.
What does it mean if the leaves turn brown on the ends?
@@whisperlistens Some kind of watering issue - either too much or too little.
@@whisperlistens usually underwatering
You got yourself a very healthy looking fiddle leaf fig! Beware they can be divas as they don't like change but once you get them in a good spot and you know how to water correctly, they're pretty easy! Best tips:
1. They like really bright, indirect light. I keep mine a few feet in front of a south west facing window and it has been doing really well there.
2. Make sure it is potted in a pot WITH DRAINAGE holes and well draining soil. Without good drainage and if you water too often, FLFs can get root rot.
3. Let the top couple of inches of soil dry out before watering and then water until the water comes out of the bottom. Try to find a somewhat regular watering schedule that works for your conditions and then stick to it as FLFs can get edema in their leaves with inconsistent watering.
4. Gently wipe down the leaves every once in a while as they can get dusty, which can block the light from directly hitting the leaves.
5. Make sure you keep it away from any vents as they don't like drafts.
6. Only repot and/or move locations when necessary as, like I said, they don't do well with change and can throw a fit by dropping a bunch of leaves :(
A lot of people will talk about humidity but personally I don't live in a humid climate and I do anything to increase humidity and my FLF has been going pretty well!
Carissa is really out here living all of our dream.. getting sponsored by HOME FREAKING DEPOT!
The value of your home will skyrocket with all these amazing updates!! You’ll make a pretty penny when you decide to sell your home! 👏👏👏 AMAZING JOB! Looks SO good!! And the Navy, wow!
We did the same look but a bit bigger in my husbands office .. you both did an amazing job..
I'm equal parts impressed and unnerved by the lack of drop cloths and painter's tape (but I am not a skilled painter lol)
Oh my gosh, such an inspiration!!!! I just did a craft wall with two inexpensive cabinets from Lowe's with wood from a previous bench I had made.. spent about $170.00 for an almost look-alike project, but now I want one in my dining room too. I love built-ins!!!!
All I can say is “Wow”. Amazing job. Love the color.
Wow, the color of the bookshelf matches the room..
Omg this looks so good! The best diy you’ve done so far. This is something I want to do in the new house so your experience was very helpful! Congratulations on your partnership too!
Thank you so much, Emily!! Congrats on the new build :)

the navy blue looks amazing, what a great transformation
The darker color is definitely the good choice. White would not do it justice. Great video & tips.
Building all of these shelving units yourself with 1/2” plywood and some trim boards is definitely the way to go on a project like this. I’m just now getting into the home diy woodworking thing but attempting to put together individual pieces of furniture to create what looks like built in shelving just seems like more trouble than it’s worth.
With a few sheets of plywood and some trim, you can easily cut everything to specific dimensions, eliminating the need to make pre-made units fit into non-standard spaces.
You guys did a great job either way and it looks fantastic but I would definitely agree that all of that time and money spent at ikea would have been better spent building something that would fit perfectly the first time. My wife and I just bought our first house and this type of project is probably going to be the first big thing I decide to tackle. I think we’d have fun doing it. Plus, it’s a great excuse to buy new tools, which is always a plus.
Seriously wish me and my partner where half as craft and DIY'ee as you two... I have all the ideas but no clue how to do it 😂😂😂
LOVE IT WELL DONE!!
It’s just ikea furniture, anyone can assemble it and paint it.
I love this!! I would’ve gone black! Not because I don’t love the navy, I just love black cabinetry!
i'm new to plants but this is what i have learned from my own fiddle leaf fig:
water it whenever the soil becomes dry, they love humid environments, and keep it within natural light but not too close to a window!! hope this helps!
For the fiddle leaf fig, bright light, away from air vents, and drying out between watering though it does like for the soil to be a bit moist. (Water when the top 2” or so of soil are dry, I HIGHLY recommend a moisture meter.) Rotate it periodically so the plant grows even.
You and your husband are so talented! What a great team you guys make! I absolutely love the color choice. I would probably stain the dining table and/or chairs the same as your table, and add a small piece of wall art in between the lights to balance the dark blue with the rest of the room. I always have a ideas but I have no clue how to execute. Excellent job!!
The dark navy is beautiful and the soft white works really well with it. I think the brass lamps and hardware look really modern against the dark paint!
Absolutely love this office/dining room make over. Also a fan of Drew on Lone Fox, but love the dark blue with the lights on yours I think just that bit more than his black.🤩
I'm OBSESSED with this!!! I love the dark wall/interiors trend, I think it looks so nice. I wanna do a dark teal wall in our dining room because there's a lot of natural light in there so I'm hoping it won't look too dark and dungeon-y
The dark color was a great choice! Especially with the rest of the room being white. It turned out amazing!
My dream room would be that blue and yellow😍
It turned out amazing, i love your honesty on the process and the shelf decorations, I dont know how to decorate shelves, but yours turned out beautiful, and the builtins made the room look so much bigger. For your dining chair, i think just repaint them with the same.color, they look nice, you can make little cushions for them, other than that, no need to buy new chairs, their designs looks beautiful in the space already
Anyone re-watching the video cos it's beautiful
Awesome job!! I love the teamwork you guys got going!! Creating a home that fits your lifestyle!! I love watching your channel, it’s like you are my cousin that lets me watch how to make a home better and more functional. I like the fact you even tell me the things like what you should have done different or another way to save time!! I think that’s why I love your channel bc it’s not scripted, you show the hiccups or bumps you come across, then best way to adjust to the situation!! Bravo 👏🏻 I think y’all are a powerful duo with great things ahead!! Thanks for teaching me how to create my home to fit my lifestyle!!!
Beautiful!! I love the dark navy accent wall/work center/sideboard (yay for multi purpose spaces!) with the white accents and white walls, it is crisp and elegant! Great job!
First place the pieces and the trim the last, as will help you to hide the differences. Love the dark but had it before and its a nightmare for the dust you can see every bit. Light gray is my new friend
Love it!! I think it makes the rug flow so much better than ever before. I was never a fan of it until now but it’s now a good pop on the floor! Definitely get more modern chairs! You should think about paint the window frames black too!
It was amazing to watch Spirit again after all those years... well, even though we went through the whole movie in under 30 seconds. I guess, that‘s nostalgia and time saving combined.
But jokes aside, thanks for the fun video and nice build! 😊
💗💗💗 the built ins... i have not always been a fan of them but it looks amazing in your space and now you have a dedicated space for work and it will be light and airy.
I love ❤️ the Navy!!!! I’m painting my accent wall in my living room to break up all the white in my house!
Final thought... Stunning 🤩. Spot on the design and decor
It’s looks so good, girl! Love the color and contrast and the gold/brass accents. Love it!
Hi carissa! If the plant you got was a fiddle fig only water about a cup a week. If it starts to get red spots on the leaves you have probably over watered it! Hope this helps 😀
Love the dark navy color. And the white on the walls looks so nice and crisp! I like the “distressed look“ on the chairs. Maybe just clean them up a bit and sand off down to the wood. And they will kind of tie in to your desktop. Brilliant job!
PPG is perfect not only for walls, furniture etc. but we also use them at my work for painting aircrafts and it's parts! 😊
We love Lone Fox inspo! Love this makeover, so good!
Just a tip , we do a lot of DIY‘s also especially hacks! When you were trying to put that bridge piece on are you really needed to do was put one more piece of one by on either side of the tall Billies center in the middle and then put a trim piece in the front which would even give it a little bit more trim out! Good job!
My favorite go to dark color is called Carbon Copy from Bher. I’ve been painting my exterior doors and even painted my kitchen cabinets in it. It’s very bold and sexy.
I actually want to put or built a geometrical shelves instead of side board, a true statement wall. This video is amazing! It looks incredible.
I was unsure about the blue and then you blew my mind. I definitely would make the chairs a wood to match the stain you chose and the bench is a excellent idea. I have been watching forever and I still never know what you have up your sleeve. You Rock
its so cool seeing a UA-cam who is a mum and drives herself places, doesn't rely on her husband and doesn't talk about her kids every 3 sentences! love it!
Very nice!💗💗🖌💗💗 Just bought a 1920 house and remodeling it. So much fun yet so much work. 1 room, (wall ,or taking out the wall) at a time.
Fiddle leaf tree likes a lot of light - but does not like to be burned. As from my experience water it in a way that the water runs through and then remove the excess. In between watering make sure that the soil gets dry - i just put little wooden straw in it and see if its still moist.
Really love the color! If you have enough leftover paint in that color you should consider painting the coat hanger bottom half the wall that color with the bronze handles. This would make it stand out against the now white walls. Love what you did here!! Always look forward to your videos!!
I have loved everything you have done with your house. You are so talented.
Nice project. Love that you are working together. As a painter I prefer to cut in one wall at a time and paint wall, repeat. Blends better when wet.
I always watch your videos from beginning to end, with no skips!! Just because I don’t want to miss out on anything!!
This came out so nice!
I love the deep color pop. It really plays off the delicate white beautifully. And the room is definitely big enough to handle being more than just a dining room. If I were you, I’d paint the chairs that same navy. I think it would be really pretty against the natural wood table. Teamwork makes the dream work. Good job Nunez’s!
This looks fantastic! I’m so impressed by all the upgrades you’ve made, very inspiring! 😊
Oh my gosh!!! It looks sooo beautiful!! I am loving the dark accent wall, love how modern it looks.
I think those books were perfect accent pieces! Those colors complemented the blue wonderfully! I think you should place them on the desk where you had them initially or on the bookshelves somewhere where the colors can still be seen and taken in!
always a delight to see your ingenuity and vision....you are sooooo talented
Love the dark blue/black color
The Navy blue is such a fantastic elegant choice ! and what made it pop even more is the dark brown desk !! such great contrast , well done 😍😍👏👏👏
you just need more terracotta decorations / vases , and some more Gold decorative props / statues that will pop up the shelves even more .

Love the dark accent wall! Wouldn't change it period! House is looking great!
The fiddle leaf loves light and a regular watering schedule!
Idea for the table and chairs, stain the table the color of the desk part of the built in, and paint the chairs the navy blue, you could do the same with a bench if you decide to do one for the table :)
amazing make-over....very couragous and creative choice with the cabinet paint colour.....if you think the decor in the cabinet looks too much like something from a home office that is ok if this is the look you wanted....if you wanted it to look more like a dining room eating kitchen feel just swap out the decor for different items, like wine bottles or a portable wine rack, put some dinner plates on the shelf, a teapot set, or a tray with shot glasses and or a decanter....if you want to be able to swap the look quickly without needing to shop for items on the day of cooking for a dinner party, just set aside space in the lower cupboards to store the kitchen type decor.
Love the built in bookshelfs !
I think you should change the layout of the livingroom and the diningroom
Since it make more sence to have the diningroom next to the kitchen
It would also be bigger and how beautiful would it be to have the bookshelf with all the decor to look at
You can place the tv in the middle over the desk 🙂
Absolutely love the space. You and Nick are really talented people.
i like the idea of using the desk area to put food on during meals. I have a big family, so aside form the table always being covered with paper and various crap we never have enough room for all the food plus room for people to eat at the table, without the table being huge with the leaf in.
I was thinking of using like a kitchen cart or something
Love the darker color! Great outcome!! 1 suggestion... I would match color with the wainscoting on the opposite wall. Can't wait to try building something similar!
I actually love the dark color against the white walls! It really stands out! I wasn't sure how it would turn out but it looks great!
Looks so good! I want to do something like this across from our kitchen to add more storage. Now just to actually tackle that!
Using painter's tape to map out the size is a GREAT idea. Thank you!
It turned out beautiful!! I love the dark color against the white.
Fiddle Leaf Figs are VERY finicky!!! Get a water meter because a lot of the issues people have with them boil down to overwatering and subsequent root rot. They like to dry out in between waterings and a water meter will help you figure out if it's time to water (normally every 2 weeks is probably fine, but it depends on the amount of light and how large the pot is - with mine, I check the water meter level at the end of week 2 and decide how much longer I need to go from there). Put it in bright indirect light (basically 6ft from of a window at the most) and if it seems to be doing fine in that spot then DON'T move it!! They don't react well to being moved lol good luck!
I agree everyone at Home depot are so nice. Plus the live and you learn part is the best part! It furthers your knowledge when coming to DIY home improvement. In the 3 years we have lived in our fixer upper I have learned countless things and a lot of them I would do different now! But to me that is the fun in it!
Love the color choices and the idea of making the dining room multipurpose. I'd paint the chairs to match the bookcases or do them white and have seat cushions that match the navy. But I'd keep the table the lighter wood color so it avoids the matchy-matcy look. And yes, using the desk area as a buffet is a great idea that never occured to me. Love Lone Fox, too and this wonderful makeover !! Thanks for sharing
indirect light for that fig leaf, and don't water until the soil's dry 3 inches down!
A nice light picture between the sconses or 4 of the frames you had there before will balance it even more. Congrats!
I’m still rooting for a “DIY Makeover For One Of My Subscribers” and please pick me 🤣
I’m a registered nurse & coming home after 13 hours to watch UA-cam videos like this when I need a few moments to relax is always my favorite thing to do ... I binge watched all your videos today & honestly love your style. You’re such a wonderful UA-camr & all the people that know you in real life are so lucky ! Keep doing what you love to do & keep making awesome content.
You are too sweet!!! Glad you could relax for a bit. Thanks for all your hard work!
@@CarissaCleansItAll thank you ! Your videos def inspire me to get back into interior design. Can’t wait for your next project ❤️
Have you considered cutting the back of the plywood for the desk a little more so that it matches with the cabinet edges? It might blend a little better! Love the end result
This looked like alot of hard work! I love that you can use the impact just as expertly as your husband. It turned out gorgeous, and the navy is one of my favorites in this project!
Great job! Personally though, I would add some color on those shelves. Maybe a few orange items and a few more plants and baskets to add a softer more natural look. I love it though!
I love the dark color at first I thought it was black but then I saw the color. I wouldn’t have gone with that color but you definitely made me want to add some dark colors to our home❤️ it all looks so nice
I absolutely adore this makeover!!! Would love to see you tackle the brick/garage part on the outside of your home. A whitewash and black garage door would be really striking!
Dark gray black wall with sherwin Williams zany pink cabinets!! Can't wait to try this
Home Depot workers are always so sweet and helpful
Omg they are!
Give your hubby lots of big hugs for all his help and patience with these projects!!
Will do!!
Absolutely love the colour of the built in would love that in my house
You did an amazing job. Love the contrast of the dark navy and white. Oh to be young and ambitious again🤩
It all looks amazing. I so love your dining room rug & the dark wall cabinets look so classy. 👍🏼
Phenomenal Transformation! The sconces are so sleek. Definitely added so much to the overall look.
This was so entertaining! You've earned yourself another subscriber!! Also when I paint, I normally use a hard sponge glued onto a stick and run that on the edges first, and it makes it so much easier. I got the idea from a The Crazy Life basement makeover video.
Like the dark color! That wall unit looks great & love the lights and hardware
That looks wonderful. You should stain the table the same as the desk top and maybe the chairs the same blue as the wall...
You need a mirror in the middle of that! It will bring in depth into the room to make the room seem bigger cause it’s drawing a lot of attention to it!!
I personally like lighter colours for the dinning room. If it was my house I would have painted the cabinets in grey or light green. But I have to say what you did here is amazing! I really love it. The contrast between the dark colour and the white walls is perfect. I really like your channel and your makeovers. They give me a whole bunch of ideas that I didn't think could work. Thanks for sharing them!
Beautiful job. Very useful as well. One thing I would have changed is to make the desk thinner so when you added the trim it would have been the same depth as the base cabinet. I love the idea of added trim to give the appearance of thicker wood on the desk.
