Repainting the fireplace a lighter color I think is a good idea. Everything looks beautiful! That dirt might be from a burning candle? Even if you burn candles in other rooms it can come thru the vents
Hi i would just put the fireplace in storage so you can use it in another room another time...and get a console table and chair...love the bed and new bedding ❤
Beautiful room!! Love the canvases above the bed!! I would paint the fireplace a taupe color!! Also add a little Christmas decor on the nightstands & maybe a Christmas pillow to the bed!!🥰
Ashley I love the makeover. I love the fireplace it’s such a unique piece. I get the to much black maybe you can frame the TV and paint the outer part of the fireplace to balance it out, making the room flow better.
The guest bedroom looks great. My suggestion is to paint the fireplace lighter, but take it out of the guest bedroom and put it somewhere else in the house.
I agree with people in here paint it beige or taupe, and your garland on your fire place I would put some battery operated twinkle lights on it, to make it more cosy in there but other than that I love it in there ❤
Love the guest bedroom everything looks beautiful I would live with it for awhile and then maybe change the lamp shades to black and then it would blend more to your liking but I would love to stay there just the way it is
The “dirt” on the wall could be soot from candles. I had an issue several years ago where some of the items in my home had a “dirty” type of dust. I had an HVAC tech come out and and after he checked our heating/air system and couldn’t find anything wrong he asked me if I burned a lot of candles. He said depending on the type of candle, they can produce more soot than others and it will adhere to different surfaces. I quit burning candles for a while and sure enough, I stopped seeing the “dirt”. I have found that soy candles seem to burn the cleanest but I still have cut back on burning candles and I haven’t had any more issues.
Room is beautiful, just like all of your rooms. Do not get rid of the fireplace, it’s so cozy. It was beautiful when it was white it’s beautiful being black. I think you just gonna have to get used to it or maybe add a little black tray or something to the nightstand to bring in more black on that side of the room but it really does all look so nice.
I love your videos, how real life they are. Loved watching George just nap at the end of the guestroom bed and you and Chase having to walk around him. that is true trust. Our dog lets us do the same.
I love the changes you made and if I may suggest a couple of Holiday accent pillows....maybe a dark green, as it will probably blend in with the green on the fireplace mantel.
I think re home the fireplace and get a lighter piece of furniture also the bed needs a decorative pillow or two that matches the blanket to break up the white.love the makeover !!
The bed made such a big difference to the room not looking cramped like the other bed did. I love the art work and I agree with painting the fireplace taupe. It is a beautiful piece but just needs lighting up. Maybe some light colored Christmas decor on the nightstands. 😊❤😊🎄
I love the black fireplace and think you should add something black on your nightstands and maybe a black tray on your bed. Also, white lights intertwined in the greenery would make the room glow!
Ashley, you have a good eye and your instincts are always correct. I’ve always felt the two things that really don’t belong in your house is that fireplace and your wedding dress everything else looks so totally designed and perfect. I think your instinct is to get rid of the fireplace but it’s just hard for you. I would vote for It and your wedding dress not to be displayed. However it’s your home and you should do what you want. Love in Christ
I honestly thought the room was beautiful before, now it’s even better and fits with the style of the rest of the house too! You have such a great eye for style! Love all your videos.🫶🏻
I really love the new bed!!!!!! Definitely looks better without the black rimmed mirrors. The fireplace is too dark now for the room, have you ever considered painting the fireplace white?
The guest room looks so cozy!! Love those deer!! Yes!!! That is what I was thinking!! Painting the FP taupe (maybe with white accents?)!! Happy Thanksgiving!! 🦃
Your guest room turned out absolutely beautiful. You could put a Christmas pillow on the bed which might be out of your comfort zone. LOL yes the fireplace makes it look like two different rooms cuz it's all black over there but I don't think you could go wrong if you painted it. Taupe I think it would look beautiful. And then the TV's just a TV and it is what it is. But everything turned out lovely and the artwork even though it's simple is definitely your style. You did a great job and so did your husband. He always does a great job❤
Everything looks beautiful! You put a lot of thought into decorating . I’d paint the fireplace a taupe color to see if you like it. Then you can decide if you want to keep it. It is a different style than your decor, though.
I would love to see it painted taupe!!! I think you are right it is like two different rooms, especially with the black TV screen. It really makes it a dark corner. I say pretty please paint it! 😂 You could change it back if you don’t like it!!
I honestly love everything about the guest bedroom except the fireplace. I know you have a lot of sentimental thoughts about it since you've had it so long, but it might be time to pass it forward to someone else. But if you love it, keep it. Lol. Listen to your conscience. ❤🌲
I love the makeover! I think the fireplace is not vibing anymore😊.. you should do something simular whats in your bedroom on the wall with the tv.. I think that would look way more your style❤❤
Everything looks beautiful. I love the fireplace. I think if you paint the taupe color. You will love it. Even though I love the way everything looks with the black fireplace .
Lol, you know I love your boys! But I got so tickled about George. He was laying there just to calm as could be not a care in the world and I’m pretty sure you just didn’t video Chase saying don’t let me get in your way buddy lol I love George❤🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾
You always do an amazing job! My question is do you (when you redo a room & get new things) do you give to family or sell on marketplace etc? Doing the Dave Ramsey way. Not buying anything new as I don’t need in my 60’s and trying to save, not buy. I’d not be able to afford to change, love your channel!!
Love what you did in your guest bedroom, totally my vibe. 🎄😊 I think painting the fireplace taupe would look so nice. I would totally stay in that room, very calming.
Yes,, The fireplace would definitely fit the style of the room more if it were a lighter color . The Tv being black goes with the outline of the windows,, but the fireplace being black also, just too much. Plus, I also think you should add a little something more to the bed and night stands. Maybe a natural Christmas pillow to bed and a small bowl with filler to stands .. Just a little something.
Paint the fireplace to match the color in the bed of the bed or paintings. You'll miss it if get rid of it. Personally I liked it in your bedroom, maybe swap that shelf and the fireplace. Sorry I hate that bedroom shelf. Love your videos.
Of all of the money that you spend to re decorate with new things- I don’t get keeping that fake fireplace, sorry to be blunt , but it looks cheap . Replacing new , and almost new , furniture and decor like you do , it seems odd that the fireplace stays…..

Love the nightstands I will be looking for those today
The room looks awesome !!!Maybe re home the fireplace. It’s too large for the space.
Paint the fireplace 😊taupe or white. At minimal add white, taupe stockings.
YES I would repaint the fireplace beige (not white) to match the knitted blanket!! It will blend more and not stick out so much! looking good!
I would add black pieces to nightstands to bring in on that side of the room. A small black clock would work. The room is so cozy. ❤😊
Put cream Stockings on the fireplace. And black decor on the nightstands
Repainting the fireplace a lighter color I think is a good idea. Everything looks beautiful! That dirt might be from a burning candle? Even if you burn candles in other rooms it can come thru the vents
Swap fireplace for skinny table. Put small amount greens on side tables with a few berries for Christmas decor
Hi i would just put the fireplace in storage so you can use it in another room another time...and get a console table and chair...love the bed and new bedding ❤
Yes! That was my first thought to paint it taupe
Maybe a Christmas pillow in the center of the bed. But Ashley you done incredible.
Thank you!
If you keep the fireplace just leave it black. Add a few black accessories to the nightstands.
Beautiful room!! Love the canvases above the bed!! I would paint the fireplace a taupe color!! Also add a little Christmas decor on the nightstands & maybe a Christmas pillow to the bed!!🥰

Paint the fire place...everything else looks great
The bed goes better with the bed tables now . I like the fireplace , it’s a cozy feel .
I agree with people in here paint it beige or taupe, and your garland on your fire place I would put some battery operated twinkle lights on it, to make it more cosy in there but other than that I love it in there ❤
Ashley, that fireplace would look AMAZING in taupe....
Don't get rid of the fireplace, paint it taupe!
Paint the fireplace, you can always painted back to black.
Love the guest bedroom everything looks beautiful I would live with it for awhile and then maybe change the lamp shades to black and then it would blend more to your liking but I would love to stay there just the way it is
Beautiful music.

Thank you so much for the ideas! Have a good week!
Can you link the bed pillows?
No fireplace, too much contrast not only the color but the style.
The room looks so much better! ❤🎄🎄
I’m so glad you like it!
Paint the fireplace a light brown, don't get rid of it!
Paint the fireplaces. Don’t get rid of it. Turned out great.
I honestly thought the room was beautiful before, now it’s even better and fits with the style of the rest of the house too! You have such a great eye for style! Love all your videos.🫶🏻
Thank you so much! I’m glad you like it!
Your guest bedroom looks like a nice hotel room. I love the prints above the bed. I say paint the fireplace a toupe color, then go from there.
Thank you, I loved how they turned out! Such a good price from Wayfair!
@@TilVacuumDoUsPart you're welcome. Me too.
I really love the new bed!!!!!! Definitely looks better without the black rimmed mirrors. The fireplace is too dark now for the room, have you ever considered painting the fireplace white?
Ashley the room is gorgeous. 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍
The guest room looks so cozy!! Love those deer!! Yes!!! That is what I was thinking!! Painting the FP taupe (maybe with white accents?)!!
Happy Thanksgiving!! 🦃
I love the design of the guest room!💕
It really looks great! I do still like the fireplace.
The new bed fits the space well! I Aldo love how the headboard and blanket at the end are similar in color! Fantastic job!
Gorgeous 😍
The fireplace looks great,,,it goods well with the window. I just would change the throw to a grey....
I have the same issue with dirty walls and we discovered that it’s coming from the air vents in the ceiling.
Oh yes …paint it. Love the room.
Thanks!
Love the change so much! ❤
The room is beautiful! Have you considered painting the fireplace to be a faux white oak, or even taupe?
You’re an awesome relative!
Your guest room turned out absolutely beautiful. You could put a Christmas pillow on the bed which might be out of your comfort zone. LOL yes the fireplace makes it look like two different rooms cuz it's all black over there but I don't think you could go wrong if you painted it. Taupe I think it would look beautiful.

Looks beautiful! Love the new bed !!! George was so cute, right in the middle of it!! Did he give his opinion??
I would love to see it painted taupe!!! I think you are right it is like two different rooms, especially with the black TV screen. It really makes it a dark corner. I say pretty please paint it! 😂 You could change it back if you don’t like it!!
Keep the fireplace just repaint it.
Paint it white x
I honestly love everything about the guest bedroom except the fireplace. I know you have a lot of sentimental thoughts about it since you've had it so long, but it might be time to pass it forward to someone else. But if you love it, keep it. Lol. Listen to your conscience. ❤🌲
Beautiful room. Maybe pain the bottom of the fireplace beige/taupe but leave the top (mantle) black.🤷🏻♀️.
I love the makeover!
I think the fireplace is not vibing anymore😊.. you should do something simular whats in your bedroom on the wall with the tv.. I think that would look way more your style❤❤
I was thinking it would be nice to have a Christmas pillow on the bed.
Everything looks beautiful. I love the fireplace. I think if you paint the taupe color. You will love it. Even though I love the way everything looks with the black fireplace .
Thank you so much!
Why not move the nightstands and vacuum underneath this way it’s all clean 🙌🙌
I do on occasion, just not this time around. Thanks for watching!
I would love to have seen how the bed goes up, what color is the bed now? You need color for the holidays!
You just pull up from the foot of bed. It’s a beige/tan color now instead of ivory
Lol, you know I love your boys! But I got so tickled about George. He was laying there just to calm as could be not a care in the world and I’m pretty sure you just didn’t video Chase saying don’t let me get in your way buddy lol I love George❤🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾
Haha George always loves to be right there in the mix!
Happy Sunday Ashley!!!
The New Bed & Painting Look So Pretty.😊
Thank you Yolanda, Happy Sunday!
You always do an amazing job! My question is do you (when you redo a room & get new things) do you give to family or sell on marketplace etc? Doing the Dave Ramsey way. Not buying anything new as I don’t need in my 60’s and trying to save, not buy. I’d not be able to afford to change, love your channel!!
Good question! We always give to family and friends first. Then depending on the piece, we either donate or sell on marketplace
You & Chase need a prime time show too!! You’re the best!!
Ashley and Chase it looks amazing.
Hope your family have a wonderful 🦃Day.
Love y’all. 💗❤️💗
Thank you! You too!
Everything turned out to be simply STUNNING! Have a great week Ashley!❤❤
Thank you so much! I hope you have a great week too Kendra!
Your heater could be causing the dirty wall in guest bedroom
I’ll have Chase look into that, thanks for the idea!
Love what you did in your guest bedroom, totally my vibe. 🎄😊 I think painting the fireplace taupe would look so nice. I would totally stay in that room, very calming.
I’m so glad you think so, it’s been a fun makeover for sure! I love the idea of painting the fireplace a taupe color!
@ I think it would look so beautiful in taupe, I’m a big taupe fan.
Yes,, The fireplace would definitely fit the style of the room more if it were a lighter color . The Tv being black goes with the outline of the windows,, but the fireplace being black also, just too much. Plus, I also think you should add a little something more to the bed and night stands. Maybe a natural Christmas pillow to bed and a small bowl with filler to stands .. Just a little something.
Thanks for the ideas!
You’re missing a mirror. Paint the fireplace taupe or get rid of it.
My husband would go crazy if I had him help me every time I had the itch to switch. 😅
Haha Chase doesn’t mind, he knows it’s part of the job 🤣
Don't paint the fireplace. The room will be too bland! Maybe try changing out your lamp shades to black so it pulls everything together.
Thanks for the idea!
I agree! Great idea 😊
What type of work does Chase do? Just curious…
Originally he was a financial analyst with a bank. For the last 5 years he has been home helping me with my work.
Paint the fireplace to match the color in the bed of the bed or paintings. You'll miss it if get rid of it. Personally I liked it in your bedroom, maybe swap that shelf and the fireplace. Sorry I hate that bedroom shelf. Love your videos.
Love you ❤
Aww thank you ❤️. You’re the best!
❤❤😊😊😊
No fireplace. Takes up way too much room in such a small space. Maybe just a chair.
Those dirty dark spots on the wall could be dust disposal from the ceiling fan.🦋💎🦋
Thanks for the idea, I’ll check that out!
Beautiful room. Fireplace should go. The update is quite different from what the fireplace is giving...time to say goodbye 👋
The bedroom is great! No to the fireplace. Too big for the room. It’s also the wrong stile for your home now.
Preferred the guest bedroom as it was, fireplace looks way out of place in your home wherever you have it, it's dark and bulky sorry. 💐❤
Of all of the money that you spend to re decorate with new things- I don’t get keeping that fake fireplace, sorry to be blunt , but it looks cheap . Replacing new , and almost new , furniture and decor like you do , it seems odd that the fireplace stays…..
It’s sentimental so she has a hard time getting rid of it.
