I will always want a formal dining room for entertaining purposes. We had one growing up and used it for holidays and gatherings beyond just us and even though I am single and have no kids I would still want one to entertain (or to gather dust when I am not inviting anyone over:)).
I have a formal dining room, I live with my husband and 5 kids. We don't use it very often(barely ever) but it's the one space that I can fully decorate however I want and it stays clean!
Loved everything...but honey...can we just take a moment to appreciate that voice!! Beautiful! Imma need a whole album now darling, don't be teasing us🤷🏾♀️😁🎶
I laughed so hard when you mentioned Death Becomes Her.. that movie is so hilarious. Thanks for all of this. I closed on my house in August and I have been wanting to do some upgrades.
When I was looking for my home, it was important for the layout to have a formal living room/dining room combo (great room) and a den. I live alone also, but I use the living/dining space for ladies night with my girls. It’s the perfect entertainment space! The den is where the tv is and used as my chill space.
Omg exterior lights are gorgeous! I bought a 4 pack of exterior lights from Amazon. Bottom is open so spiders. I love your lights with the all around enclosure. Nice job! Love seeing our people with home channels 🙌🏾💕💕
I have a formal dining room and I absolutely love it. It’s just my husband and I. We are empty nesters. The room make me smile and give me a lot of pride when I look at it.
You've come along way.. i remember when you did most of these changes in your home! I live alone also but In a small condo rental so I don't have a formal dining room. I want one, because for holidays & get togethers it would be nice. Maybe make yours into a room for hobbies or something else you like to do. I hope you're having a very Merry Christmas Shonda!! 🥰🎄💕
I have had a formal dining and used it as such in the past. But I live in a state without any family (we are spread across the country). I used it maybe 10 times. In the house I purchased a few years ago (now single). I am not using it as a formal dining room. It's my chill and relax room for now. I want to make it into a library/bar (I don't drink but family/friends do). But trying to figure out how to do with my preferred style is challenging. I'll get there at some point.
Lol changing door hinges and handles is stress. Easy but stress. Lovely home! Kickplates tarnish but it takes a while if you’re not in a sun blazing facing location. We had kick plates at our townhome I renovated but sun blazing south facing 🤦🏽♀️. Can always flip to the other side ☺️. Happy I found your channel.
I don't need a formal dining area. But I do need a large party table in the basement where we can formally gather and eat if we have to. I have small dining areas for quick eating, aesthetics and decor purposes.
About the mirror on the bathroom you can always get decorative whether it be metal or frame picture frame make it from wood or you can make it look metal and put it up yourself you seem like a very creative young lady
I have a formal dining room, I mostly use it when family and friends come over. Keep in mind this is mostly every weekend so yes we use our formal dining room. It’s my husband, son, dog, and I living here. We use every coming area daily.
I like formal dining idea with maybe a small wine bar would be perfect for girls night dinners !!!!! I have a very small friend group and it’s nice to have small intimate dinners!!!!!! Walmart rotisserie chicken and box sides on fine China gives very much Ruth’s Chris steak house vibes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Girl I also live alone. And I have a formal dining room. I use it alot. I set the table for dinner, for afternoon tea, with my tea and scones for myself. Make breakfast. I really enjoy eating at the table.
Congratulations 👏 you have a very nice house 🏠. I had a dining room but we just used it as a family gathering room. Be creative and use it as you choose.. It's good you know how to install lights yourself👍
beautiful job. thanks for sharing, I have a dining room and grew up with one. I use mine for birthdays, Christmas. Its not necessary but looks great. I love entertaining and just setting things up nice.
I don't have a dining room at all. We never had one. But I wish I would have bought a bigger house because all the gatherings go down at my house. We just had Christmas here. It turned out nice but I still think I need more space.
We’re building a house and we are replacing the formal dining room area into a conversation/ sitting area, we eat at the kitchen counter for almost every meal and we have a breakfast nook so we definitely don’t need another dining area
Thank you so much! I started watching you when I began my home buying process and now I have my home. I needed these links! I have an older home I'm trying to figure out how to update on my own.
Thank you thank you for this video. I’m a first time home owner and I’ve been nervous to to do DIY. You’ve encouraged me so much 😊 keep up the great work. Blessings to you.
I'm in the process of purchasing my first home and plan on using the formal dining area for my home office. My parents have a formal dining room and use it a few times out of the year (2-3x)!. To me it's just wasted space...I want functionality in my space as much as possible.
Hey. I love your personality and glad I came across your channel. I just purchased my home and I am so excited to begin decorating. I love what you have done to your place. I have so many ideas and visions, but I know it want happen overnight. I have a formal dining room, but I don’t plan on using it as one. I look forward to seeing what you are doing next.😊
Look into Frame My Mirror; I ordered one for my builder's-grade huge bathroom mirror. It makes a huge difference and you don't have to worry about taking it down!
I live in an apartment right now but when I build my home I will not be including a formal dining room. I feel like it would just sit empty unless we had some sort of dinner party which is honestly almost never going to happen😂
Hey girl hey🙋🏾♀️ I was there for all of it my favorite thing that you done to your house I like everything but I was so impressed when you laid the garage flooring down it was so amazing to me it's so pretty and sparkly girl you are the🐐💯💯💯 happy Christmas Eve
Things I would like to see on your page. 1. An Activewear fashion haul. You will start to get a LOT of free shyt. 💯 facts. Then start your own activewear line. 2. A video of you doing your workout routine. 3. More cook with me video. Including your grocery shopping process
I made my dining room into a wine/conversation room, complete with a wine rack, wine cooler, end tables and chairs because I don't have a large enough family to be having be having dinners and holidays in there. I wanted to just create an atmosphere to chill in and have a glass or two of wine and a little conversation with my friends.
I want to change my lights 😫 but i wouldn't try that myself i admire that u did all them upgrades yourself... also a fireplace would look awesome under that tv. Been meaning to say that since you put up your shelf under the tv
Hey Girl Hey, I ordered those lights for my garage they are much better than the regular lights. I will try the solar lanterns for outside over my garage as well, TFS!
Hey girl!! For all the door handles that you switched out, did you change the door hinges to match?🥴… I would love to but I don’t wanna feel lazy for leaving them as is😅
I will be placing a table and dining chairs in my front room similar to yours only because I have a light colored couch in my family room and I really don’t want my children and grandchildren eating in my family room I see no reason in having two living rooms so the next option was to make it a complete dining room it won’t be formal but it will be a dining room I do have a small nook in the kitchen to eat everyday meals but it’s not big enough room for the eight of us when we are all together .
First, so much respect that you took matters into your hands after having contractors who did a piece meal/shoddy job when you pay for good quality work. are you are willing to share your location? I ask because I am located in Albany, NY and cannot find contractors if my life depends on it. Also same thing when dealing with the big box stores as well. I am thinking this is universal for us. what are your thoughts? if you would like to share or can.
I don't currently have a formal dinning room because I live in an apartment. But I do plan to have one when I buy a house. I grew up with formal dining rooms. Although we never really used it, it was always decorated and pretty!!!
Girl your videos and your accomplishments and watching you grow is helping me with my depression, congratulations to you and everything you do. I'm just starting the NACA process too.
Love everything you've done with your home. I have a question about your business with the company you received your sectional from. I'm interested in purchasing some items but I see mixed reviews about the company and there delivery fees are outrageous and people are saying they received used or damaged goods? But the other half says the couch and service was good.
Loving everything. For the dining room, if you're not feeling it, you don't have to do that, at least not now. I would personally do a seating area with some cool chairs, dope artwork on the walls, etc and a long coffee table that would compliment the chandelier. So when you have guests over it could be an informal space to eat, converse, sip a lil tea, lounge, etc.
I love all of the choices. I have the brass globe light in my dressing area. I have a casual dining room with a round table. I dont really use it but l do like it to look nice. I do live alone now that my son is away in college. I do need to purchase those solar exterior lights. I switched out all of my blinds to faux wood blinds and faucets to match all of the hardware that the previous owners installed during the renovations. Yes l live Florida too so l feel you on the hard water. I also have that paper towel holder.
Ok now I feel so special you said my name n answered my question.. you are the best.. I am under contract on a townhome now. I love your aesthetic so I will definitely be getting some of these items... I just want to add some earthy tones or jewel tones to my home but the black, brass, glass n whites r a vibe.. u just made my night. MERRY CHRISTMAS 🤗🤗.. p.s. I know what u mean about that toilet seat shifting n its aggy This was super helpful thank you 🤗🤗🤗😍😍😍
I live alone and have a formal dining room, formal living and a lady cave...and four bedrooms...but I wanted the space just in case I have guests we are not on top of one another.
I just want ya'll to know my fingers cramped from making this list of LINKS 😂SO THUMBS THIS UP FOR YA GIRL!! HAPPY HOLIDAYSSSS!!
🤣👋🏾👍🏾❤
THANK YOU..... for this video!!! So many great ideas to upgrade your home.

Sis,what about your dress link? Thanks for the video.

I have an office/dining room. My desk is a table that we've used for Thanksgiving dinner. It's not a large house so we work with what we have.

Love my dining room. Married with two young adult children. We do use it for game room in addition to holidays
I have a formal dining room and I absolutely love it. It’s just my husband and I. We are empty nesters. The room make me smile and give me a lot of pride when I look at it.

Love the outside “porch lights”. Oh i do like the long bulb but I also like the convenience of the solar bulb.
Great video! Girl we need a weight loss video bc you have gone through an amazing transformation!!! 💃🏽💪🏾
I have had a formal dining and used it as such in the past. But I live in a state without any family (we are spread across the country). I used it maybe 10 times.

We only used our dinning room for holidays or if more then 4 people came over for dinner. Nice home
Lol changing door hinges and handles is stress. Easy but stress. Lovely home! Kickplates tarnish but it takes a while if you’re not in a sun blazing facing location.

Door knobs, sensor lights etc was a plus. Lovely, thx a million for the transparency.
Continue to thrive.
Blessings,
I have a formal dining room, I mostly use it when family and friends come over. Keep in mind this is mostly every weekend so yes we use our formal dining room. It’s my husband, son, dog, and I living here. We use every coming area daily.
Formal dining comes in clutch for family dinners are just too have
I like formal dining idea with maybe a small wine bar would be perfect for girls night dinners !!!!! I have a very small friend group and it’s nice to have small intimate dinners!!!!!! Walmart rotisserie chicken and box sides on fine China gives very much Ruth’s Chris steak house vibes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have a formal living and dining room. I don't use either one until holidays. I consider them both waisted spaces.
I remember watching you put these all in! 🙌🏾🙌🏾💪🏾💪🏾 Love it all and very informative.
Girl I also live alone. And I have a formal dining room. I use it alot. I set the table for dinner, for afternoon tea, with my tea and scones for myself. Make breakfast. I really enjoy eating at the table.
Congratulations 👏 you have a very nice house 🏠. I had a dining room but we just used it as a family gathering room. Be creative and use it as you choose.. It's good you know how to install lights yourself👍

"A Death Becomes Her moment." 🤣🤣 I hollered! Happy Holidays 🎄
lol Happy Holidays
I turned my dining room into an exercise room. I don't live alone but we actually eat at the bar/breakfast area.
I'm looking for a space in my house for an exercise room. I have a treadmill and a water rower. In the end, I think I'm going to have to add on.
Soooo awesome that you did loads of DYI’s in your home. Thanks for sharing!!!
I'm a DIYer to. So, I love it when people can take on some of the projects themselves. We can all learn from each other.
I love house tours and makeovers. I tend to do small makeovers in my house. Just taking it bit by bit!!
I appreciate this video, even the toilet seat because I was looking for one😄
I don't have a dining room at all. We never had one. But I wish I would have bought a bigger house because all the gatherings go down at my house. We just had Christmas here. It turned out nice but I still think I need more space.
We’re building a house and we are replacing the formal dining room area into a conversation/ sitting area, we eat at the kitchen counter for almost every meal and we have a breakfast nook so we definitely don’t need another dining area
I love your home! Thanks for sharing these upgrades, I can’t wait to buy my first home so I can hit up your Amazon store and get some of these items!
Merry Christmas
Wow! I just stumbled upon this vlog and I love her content. I just shared her!! And subscribed. 💕

Thank you so much! I started watching you when I began my home buying process and now I have my home. I needed these links! I have an older home I'm trying to figure out how to update on my own.
Glad it helps. 🖤
I have an older home also. We've refinished floors, installed built-ins, ripped out cabinets, and painted more times than I can count.
Thank you thank you for this video. I’m a first time home owner and I’ve been nervous to to do DIY. You’ve encouraged me so much 😊 keep up the great work. Blessings to you.
You're so cute..."let's get to it"..then you talk for another 5 minutes! nice job!
The wooden looking light would be a nice closet light.
Merry Holidays #WallFlower🥂

Omg can I just say thank you I never knew you could get this stuff from Amazon amazing!!!!
You're an awesome DIYer.
Love the soft close toilet seat. Have you considered adding a bidet?….. life changing
I would love for you to make your formal dining room into a space that you can regularly use. I don't know what that may be yet. I'll be brainstorming
I have an office/dining area. The room does double duty pretty well, especially since we don't have people over very often for dining room dinners.
Oh thank you for the links 😍. But where's the link for the outfit in the thumbnail?
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 🎁🎄
💕💕💕💕💕
Merry Christmas 🎄🎄🎄
