I love how raw and authentic your videos are. So many Fake youtubers who want the world to think their homes and lives are perfection. Thank you for being real. It's a nice place to kick back and relax while we watch and get inspired. Thank you.
Yes! Her house looks like a real home where real people live. Not a store display!
wow you are so right/HI my name is FLORENCE/I just found them two days ago/they are great/tried and true//bless them
I’m almost 70. I’m in the process of moving to Costa Rica to live w my son and his family. I have 3 sons. Watching you brought back the young times of my life where there was always so much to do. Never apologize for letting life get in way of your to do list. I think you and your family are wonderful.Im a designer by trade . Every part of your home is beautiful.
You are so precious! I love perfectly imperfect people! Your home is beautiful! Happy smiling,joyful children. Kristen,youve got it more "together" than you will ever know! Im a retired OB nurse. Please take rest periods throughout the day and drink water like crazy. Have extra healthy snacks. Youve been so sick as of late also. No preterm labor for you dear! Prayers up!
I love the warm cozy vibe of this room. Isnt it funny how our style changes as we get older?
But so great that we can always be country bumpkins and behind-the-times!!
This is the day the Lord has made let us be glad an rejoice in it. Now you will sort and make good choices to use, pass on, or donate. Start in one corner and work your way out. I love the new look. Well done good and faithful servant. Have a blessed Sunday and please take care of yourself.
Yes! Thank you!
Way to GO, Kristen! (At tne same time, I confess that I’m a 61 yr. female that doesn’t want you to over-do it!) What a charming, cozy back-porch haven you’ve created for your precious family! I love the beautiful nod to the home that you & Josh first shared! And, Josh in that chair… ! His ‘Honey Do’ list… ! Always, I’m blessed to see your ‘Signature Kristen,’ beautiful, thoughtful way with Josh & your children! (Brings the Proverbs woman to mind!) Praying for ‘baby girl!’ She’s blessed beyond measure to be joining your family! I’m so excited for y’all & continue to pray blessings in abundance! 🩷🙏🏼
This room turned out beautifully Kristen! Have you thought about attaching doors instead of a curtain to visually hide the contents? I would definitely set a mouse trap or it's going to chew through your wall and wiring!!!
Yes, you do not want him chewing your wiring. Try peppermint essential oil & if you have to shove steel wool in cracks & holes.
Mouse traps with peanut butter,works every time!🙌🏻
Try putting peanut butter in a mouse trap.
We had a mouse problem at our last home that got pretty bad, and had to hire a service. Didn't work.
Then we tried putting peanut butter in the mouse traps and that did the trick!
Yes, peanut butter is the best bait for snap traps. We had much better luck with glue traps tho. Keeping the dog food in a metal bin will help keep the mice out of it and not leaving it out all day for the dog to graze will help too. The more you can get food and nesting sources locked away, the better. Patching holes or using tin foil to block gaps around doors and windows helped us too. I’m wondering if the mice are contributing to the health problems? Lots of hard work to clean up but the room looks great!
I would put the alligator head on the shelf with the antlers or hang it under the turtle shell. Love all of the things from nature. I have an Emu egg,Ostrich egg and various other bird eggs,also a real nest,etc.
Well done! Who cares how long it took. You got it done! ❤
You still seem sick. Nasally. I sure hope you feel better soon, it has been a long time. Praying for you!🙏🙏🙏
I noticed that too. Concerning…….
You just take as much time as you need... You are a wife and mama to 3 almost 4 littles! Life isn't as perfect as some youtubers show in their videos!!!! I always enjoy seeing your videos
I love how your videos reflect real life!
I love the bird pictures hung between the windows. ❤️ we all have messes. I love your honesty.
Thank you! 😊
You are such a trooper 🙏🏻
Good job Kristen, and you don't have to apologize for it taking 5 days. Whether it's because you're pregnant or obviously you have three other children and a husband and life. But you did an awesome job. It looks beautiful
Thank you so much!!
The transformation of the space looks fabulous, Kristen.
I hope that you all remain well.🥰
Thanks so much! 😊
Looks so fresh and clean! I bet it feels so good to walk in now. You really carry pregnancy well. When u have a sweatshirt on u can’t even tell! Take care of you and baby.😊
I actually looked to see if I missed a video that the baby was born, your so right, Kristen carries so beautifully
You could build a wooden box, add board insulation, and a lid. Then your paint stuff could be stored safely.
Thought the same thing!👍
First of all prayers that hydrating will help with the contractions, as long as you take your time as you well know after 3 children I trust you will be fine. Older homes have so much character as well issues with windows. I love your home so much, thank you for sharing. Have a blessed week❤❤❤
Yes! Thank you!
Happy Sunday! I grew up on farm, we had the best Cat mouser in the country. We still had mice that were wanting to camp out, lol in our 2 story farmhouse. It’s sounds terrible butI would always bait my wooden mouse traps with peanut butter and that solves the problem! It truly does.
Your home is lovely. Very cozy indeed.
I think we all have a catch all room or closet. Love the style! This room you have decluttered is an inspiration for my living room. Thank you for sharing! ❤
Yay! Thank you!
Just use good old fashion mouse traps, they work fine. And girl, my basement is an absolute mess. Some day ill get the bug to go down and clean it 😃
Your husband enjoying throwing the boxes in the fire and trying the new chair was so funny 😂
😁
I live in Canada, and we recycle paper and cardboard boxes
A week and a half is amazing! My projects usually take much longer. This winter, I started painting my small powder room and it took my 3 weeks to finish. I was just so busy that I only had 30-60 minutes at a time. I give myself grace for things taking longer and am just thankful that I can eventually get things done. So definitely don't feel bad that it takes longer then you think.
You did a great job Kristen! It’s such a cozy inviting room. It worried me that you were doing so much lifting. Take it easy girl. 👍
If you can’t recycle, one option is to shred the cardboard wet it in a bin, add worm bin worms. add food scraps and create awesome soil to start a garden. Search up 3 bin worm bins. Keep moist. You’ll be amazed how fast the worms convert it all to soil. ❤
It doesn't matter how long it takes as long as you take care of yourself. I love how "real" you are. The room looks great! I'd love having a room like that.
Love the room.... but my favorite is the sweet "thankful" card with Jesus on the cross. Great job on the room, but more importantly great job on being a wonderful mama to those sweet kiddos. Those babies arise every day and call you blessed! 🥰
Such a good & satisfying job!! Double whammy of spring clean & baby nesting hits hard. Your space is comfortable & welcoming!
Thanks so much! 😊
It looks WONDERFUL! I was born in 1955 and my grandparent's house out in CA had a room very similar to that that my granddad built on. It was his Native American room and had types of Indian artifacts, collectibles, pots, you name it and your room brings back those sweet memories of spending time in Granddad's Indian room. And, it truly was mid century. I love it. I would never leave. But, I freeze ALL the time and would have to have a roaring fire back there, lol. In the summer I would be fine. Great video sweetie. You did an excellent job and I want to come sit with y'all. xoxTXDeb
Just be sure if you are drinking a lot of water that you get enough sodium. A lot of water can really throw that off and cause a lot of problems with your electrolytes. You can google it. Also, it sounds tacky, but you should get some of that plastic sheeting that you put over your windows with your hairdryer. If you make the edges even it's usually hard to tell it's even on there. Curtains, even sheers help hide edges. It works unbelievably well. (I've lived in old farm houses with no storm windows and always used it successfully.) Sometimes I've even had to go over and touch it to see that it was there. Do a little, sit with your feet up, do a little more. Pace yourself to take care of you and that baby.
Kristen, I love your house and style. Just so comfortable, welcoming and homey ❤
Thank you so much!
This reminds me of our sunroom! I fought not putting a tv out there because I loved to go out there and read. We bought a new sofa with a chase and the TV we know are out there instead of our living room.
I love how the room turned out Kristen!! I love the bird prints on the window !! ❤❤❤❤
Thanks so much! 😊
This video is so beautifully chaotic and I love it.
This room seems soo cozy in the afters. I hope you figure out a way to weatherproof it better so you can enjoy it more!
I love that you share projects take time and real life.
Hey Kristen. I’m a southern girl and it tickles me so much to hear you say “y’all “. I didn’t know the folks in Indiana used that term! Love your sweet little family. Josh is definitely going to need a hide out with his big tv for gaming with a house full of ladies, poor guy!!!😂
I'm from Indiana, 15 minutes from Kentucky😊 alot of people around here say ya'll 😀
But I know what you mean, it seems more southern. My husband and I moved from NC 2.5 years ago, and most everyone says it there!!
I am originally from PA, then Ohio, and MO, so I don't use the term myself. 😊
You did so well Kristen, considering how much you both have going on and you being pregnant. Looks so cozy and inviting😊
I love that Josh helps you
Kristen I just love how you have the energy to clean and decorate. No matter how bad it looks, you manage to make it beautiful. You are such a good mom. Have a great day ! Love your videos.
Girl I feel for you so much with you always being sick. I am ALWAYS so sick when pregnant and it’s exhausting. Stay strong!!
Bubble wrap on windows is a good insulater, light can still come in.
❤Hi Kristen, You are so sweet! I hope you feel better so soon! Life gets pretty busy, and you are doing great! Day at a time is my philosophy! The sun porch looks so cozy and comfortable! Love the new chair! Take time to rest Kristen, you are working so hard, but I know what you mean about full nesting mode! It’s so nice of you to share the video and all of your hard work. The room turned out so great! Take care and we will see you in the next one!
I love the vibe you have going on in this room. It’s very masculine and cozy.
Take good care of yourself dear Kristen. ❤
That room turned out great! Don’t worry about it taking days to finish, it literally took me 2 days to watch this video. lol, life …
Thank you for being so refreshingly honest and open about your home (and your mouse!) Love the new chair and your organization solutions. I understand your storage struggles! My house was built in the 30's and has one closet. Above all else you are creating a home that is a warm and loving space to raise your family.
Thank you so much!
Hey girl, give yourself some grace. You and your family have been sick a lot and you are pregnant. Plus a momma of three little girls. The green wainscoting that you did earlier makes the room feel so cozy. I love it with your decor.
Love the realism. My house looks like a hoarders house right now. We are doing a massive Reno on the kitchen. Down to the studs. New insulation and Vapor barrier. Plumbing and electrical.
Good luck with the baby.
I just had that done!! Going on 8 months here!!! On the last week. Good luck with yours!
PS your side table WAS a steal for $30 ! The room looks great!
Love this so much!
Kristen, we just love you! Everything looks beautiful! You did a fabulous job, no matter how long it took you. We are always here and loving your content that you bring to us. Thanks for sharing and giving us true inspiration on tackling an area that could use some love and attention. We certainly can all relate! XO
Love this vid!
So cozy!!!
Love your videos
Love it ❤
Looks fantastic!!
Good to have a mop, in case your water breaks!!
Happy Sunday Kristen, before we moved to the city . I had a veranda like yours , with windows all around. My husband hung up bamboo curtains for me . I used the veranda as my den . When it was really hot or very cold I keep the curtains down . On days when the weather was perfect , the curtains stayed up . Worked out perfectly, for me . I sat out there to read my bible & take notes . And scrapbook. Blessings to you and your family 🌺💞🌸
You are doing a great job. Your house is beautiful. You are doing a great job, don’t stress.
Thank you so much!
Great job! It’s beautiful!
Great job ❤
Looks awesome Kristen!😊
Your room turned out amazing 💕
Love when you talk about your pregnancy pee. You could sell bottles of it online to fund the renovation.
The transformation was amazing and had to have been a relief to get done. The gallery wall looks great and complements the overall style of the room! Definitely treat yourself after all that hard work. 👏
What a great refresh Kristen! Of course it will quickly look lived in again but that is life! feels so good and motivating to clean up a space and breathe some new life into it
I love this room!
I really love this room. I have a bedroom upstairs in the home we are renovating that is all wood from floor to ceiling and this is the look I have in mind for that space. Masculine with a vintage outdoors theme.
The back porch turned out beautiful!
Your videos are so comforting ❤
I'm so glad!
You motivate us! 😍 Thank You!
I love your videos they are so real. Take good care of yourself. 🥰
I love how you show such real life!
Looks so nice now!
Kirsten. We had a mouse in the back of the oven and it chewed through the wires of the oven. I’d get rid of Mr Mouse asap.
Looks very nice.
Wow! You really know how to pull a room together! Great job!
It looks beautiful Kristen. Cozy too.
It looks so beautiful!
You did it! It looks so inviting and like a great place to relax!❤
Hope you are feeling well . Take care of yourself and the baby … Utube can wait !❤
That is a great room and it cleaned up really nice.
I love the music at the end of the video ❤
What a great job! You are awesome and you rock! I will be praying for both you and the baby do well!!!
Great job, Kristen! That room is such a great space for your family. ❤
It is beautiful Kristen 💜💜💜💜💜💜
Looks very nice! Thankyou for always keeping your videos real!❤
Always!
I love your back porch! I feel your stress! Lol!! we all have this issue with our homes and love that you’re realistic with life as we all know it! 😂❤️ You are truly an inspiration to me personally and I’m sure many more! Thank you for being real!❤️ God bless you and your sweet family!
Wow ! Your room looks sooooo good ❣️🥰
Thank you!!
Thank you for sharing love the room it's the reason I subscribe because you're so authentic you and not the other cookie cuter youtube channel because we all know what it's like to run a home and family. Have a wonderful blessed Sunday and week.
Thank you so much!!
Looks great
Prayers for u
It looks amazing. I love how it all came together!
Wow every thing turned out great! So inspiring! I’m working on clearing out my craft closet…it’s made my craft room a mess, but seeing how you can transfer a space like that is really motivating! Love the gallery wall. Have a great day!
Very nice!
Thanks!
You are so encouraging me to tackle some cleaning out and sorting in my closet and china hutch! It is amazing how much better things look when they are organized and displayed well! Great job!
Everything looks so nice!
Also, your editing and music was spot on! Beautiful video. 🩷
Thank you so much!!
YOU ARE AMAZING!!! The beginning of the video I felt badly for you because there was so much to do... BUT you got it done! Take care of yourself. It's no wonder you're having contractions with so much work and lifting. The music at the end is perfect! I just love you and your sweet Family. Stay healthy... Continued Blessings!!!
You did a wonderful job! 5 days isn't bad, and now it's done! I love your tv console.
Kristen tackling a project like that is a process so don’t be too hard on yourself ! I love your channel because you share life’s real moments! God bless you and your future endeavors!!😊
Kristen, good idea for that windows curtains for winter
I LOVE that you share the "messy" !! And the mouse 🤣🤣🤣
