“Do your best and caulk the rest.”, is what I’ve always been told. It’s worked for me so far!
I love that!!!
I like Adam Savage's line "Hide your crimes."
Hey Y'all, that trim is not only AMAZING, but a very ingenious way of triming out your ceilng, & walls!!!....
Sincerely, the old Montana cowboy,
Frank Scherping❤😊
Hi our Montana Cowboy Friend! Thank you for all the love to us!!
Love the idea of stringing the balls together for the tree. My cat was 6 weeks old last Xmas and climbed it but didn't do any damage. This year he stole half the decorations 😄 l might try stringing all the balls together.
Thank you so much!! Oh my gosh!🤣
I must say Jim that I much prefer your "ease that down the calendar" to my usual push that back...
Well done on all your hard work Cajun's your living room (or lounge whichever you use there) looks fantastic and is a true testimony to your dreams come true
Thank you Scott!!
Your living room looks fantastic!
I have never seen anyone trim a tree like that. I really like how it turned out.
Thank you Delbert!
Your living room looks amazing 😊, but I absolutely love how you decorated the tree 🥰. Absolutely beautiful 😍. You would make a fantastic decorator 😊.
Thank you so much!!😍😍
The living room is beautiful. The trim really finishes it. The tree is so pretty. I've never seen the ornaments strung together and it looks great. Love the green grass up above. Great job.
Thank you Jill! ❤️
"It's beautiful Clark"! and yes all the little lights are twinkling.
Thank you so much!
Caulk is your best friend, Ive seen so many professionals who dont make perfect cuts in Crown Molding, even on UA-cam Ive only seen one guy who showed you how to do perfect cuts, but you needed a proper Miter Saw and a Protractor.
Thank you!!
@@CajunCountryLivin You're welcome, the house is beautiful.
Instead of using caulk on baseboards and other molding to seal gaps, use "light weight spackling". That way you can easily remove the moldings without damaging the drywall. Merry Christmas!
That's a great idea! Sure will try it! Merry Christmas!
Amazing !! Beautiful Living Room especially the Wallpaper it is just the perfect touch outlines the cutout and Texture!!!🐊🐊🐊🐲
Thanks so much! 😊
WOW 😻. The living room looks absolutely fabulous!! I really love the trim. Y'all are giving me some great ideas for my living room remodel!! And the tree is beautiful - you guys did a great job on it! Nothing new, though - everything you do comes out fabulous!
Thank you so much!! We love that we are able to give y’all lots of ideas!😁
Wow. Looks fantastic. Caulk is your friend from my experience. Love the tree and decorations!
Yes!! We love it!🫶
Beautiful guys...those finishing touches make all the difference. House just keeps getting better and better.
Thank you so much!!
Seeing how your home has evolved, and the space you have, got me to wondering how were you 9 months pregnant and able to care for an infant for over a year in that small camper?! You are such a capable, can-do, even "No task too big," no whine package of energy!
All that, PLUS work on the house on nap time for the first 2 years. 🙃 Life was CRAZY! 🤪 I wouldn’t trade it for the world, but when I say I was tired… I WAS TIRED!!
You’re exceptional, even if you did get kicked out of cooking school.
Jim is right, floors get done last in a new build or full house remodel situation
Jim: 1 Lydia: 0
🎉❤ Absolutely gorgeous your living room is. I love the wallpaper and your fireplace wall is stunning. ❤❤
Thank you so much!!
Extraordinary and beautiful!!! I luv how you have fun while you are creating your home!
Thank you so much!
Great job! Looks almost professional! Seriously, love all the sweat equity and DIY learning experiences.
Thank you so much!!😄🎄
You 2 are some hard working couple.i look forward to your videos. I know Christmas is going to be an event to remember..so glad for you 2 and the little one. She is going to have so much room to enjoy Christmas this year...
Thank you so much. We don’t take that lightly. We appreciate all the support!❤️
Your living room is beautiful ! You both have done amazing work on the house.
Thank you!!
Job well done you two, I couldn't believe my eyes the minute I started watching this video, your home is evolving on the interior into something you'd expect to see in a high-end Hollywood California home just absolutely stunning! I love the difference between the colors and textures, you two make a wonderful team! What a perfect time of year to see all your hard work finally start to come together for the 3 of you Lord knows you've earned it.
Thank you so much! For being some country folk, we haven’t done too bad! Thank you for the love and support Ralph!
Y’all make a great team !!! Lydia you are unstoppable !!! Jim , I hope you guys enjoy your beautiful home. Great work. God Bless 😊
That turned out wonderfully. You didnt like the plastic wrap on the lampshade. Growing up mu mom bought a lampshade and the plastic stayed on it for over 35 years. I inherited said lampshade mostly because my siblings are to lazy to come take stuff. One day a horse fly got stuck between the plastic and shade. I knew it was a horse fly by its little tiny saddle. Anyhoo my cat went nuts trying to get at it and after more than 3 decades the plastic was no longer on the shade and it yelled FREEDOM. Lol. Now once again wonderful job
Haha I love it!!😂🐴🪰
That’s WILD!!! 30 years.. for a horse fly. Love to hear y’all’s stories!
Hi y'all. Beautiful living room. Great job. Can't wait to see what you do with those doors .love your tree. It is gorgeous!!!! 👍👍👍❤...
Thank you so much!
As you say caulking fixes everything, on trim I do the same thing,I will caulk everything,and then touch it up with paint!
Yes!!
I had to come back and see that greenery (grass) on that ledge.....I LOVE THAT ,,JUST LOVE THAT ..hey...I like the ball garland also...yea, I like it alot..but; that greenery needs to stay there ..I love the wallpaper also. I can't hit that thumbs up but once...
Thank you!! We love it too!!😍 the greenery will stay for sure!
😳😳 Wow!! The living room came out beautiful 😍!! Jim, you need to slap y'all hands together and make the Ole Betsy outside running 😂😂😂!! I'm just kidding 😂!! The tree came out beautiful also!! But as always, y'all are killing it!! I hope y'all have an awesome weekend. See y'all next time, friends 🙏🙏🙏
RIGHT!!!!😂😂 Lydia said she WISHES! lol. Thank you so much Ced!!

Very nice work Jim and Lydia ❤❤
Thank you John!😁😃
Jim you better be careful Lydia will be able to cary you. Love watching you 3 ,your corkiness is fun. However you need to get your workshop done so the toolbox gets its permanent home. LOL did you get the battery packs to operate your couch?
Haha, thank you Daniel!
We agree! Hoping the weather stays dry so we can get out and work on the workshop!
We didn’t get the battery pack yet. We didn’t realize we got a power couch. 🤭
The living room looks awesome.
Thank you!!
What a reveal!! Beautiful!!!
Thank you Dave!❤️❤️❤️
A few words from Jim
"I'm not a coper, I don't cope" ( So instead of trying to cope, he jigsaws and somehow it worked)🤔
" We want our trim, trim"
" Whoops, if I make a mistake on the trim, I'll let Lydia fix it with caulking ( paraphrased)"
😊😊😊
Never seen flat boards used for crown molding before. But I like it.
Once you did the living room reveal you could see why you chose to do it. It fits right in with the window and door trim. And does it ever make that gator wall pop.😊
Everything in the living room looks great.
And you still have room for more stuff.
Now that's a Christmas tree 🎄
None of that fake stuff.😊
You two have once again made me smile and laugh.
Wishing you the best
Hi Jim!
Haha, always break out the jigsaw!😁
THATS THE TRUTH!! Good thing he has me to complete the finish work!💪
Thank you for your positivity Jim!
really friends look very nice ........ good job 💯👍👍💪💪💪
Thank you so much 👍
looks nice you two - God Bless
Thank you! You too!
fantastic, great style , very nice job, I can look at that all day
Thank you very much!
What a beautiful tree. I have never seen the large tree bulbs strung like that before. I love the whole effect it gives.Thank you for sharing. Merry Christmas to you both.✨🎄✨ Art in Calif.🤓
Beautiful job finishing the living room. Now you can sit back and enjoy the fruits of your labor during the holidays.
Always remember perfect is the enemy of good (or good enough). Hope ya'll have a Merry Christmas and the Happiest of New years.
Living room is gorgeous.
Thank you!!
Lookin really spiffy!! Can’t wait until I get to where you are in your build! Maybe I’ll have a living room for next Christmas! For now I’ll just be grateful to get the roof on. Three trusses up and done and 9 more to go.
Les finitions sont toujours d’actualité. Mais cela finira bien un jour. Votre sapin 🌲 de noël 🎅🏽 est magnifique. Bonnes fêtes 🍾 🎉de fin d’année les cousins cajuns. 👍👏😘😘🇫🇷
Thank you so much!😍
Having not been feeling well for the last couple of weeks, I was so excited to see that my favorite Cajun family had posted a new video! Made my week complete! Jim, what makes a Master carpenter stand out from a regular carpenter is one has Mastered covering up his mistakes! Home looks great and hope you have a joyous Holiday Season and a Happy New Year!
We are hoping you have a quick recovery! Sorry to hear that you have been down. We are here to entertain!!😜 Let me know when you want Jim to break out the circus tricks.
Merry Christmas!!
Looks beautiful!

Your place is beautiful, you guys have done a fantastic job 😊❤😊
Thank you so much!😄
Living room looks amazing and loving all the Christmas Sprit. Best wishes, lots of love and hugs to the Master Caulker, Coping Commander, and the 3' timer!!
Thank you Matt!
So when are y'all going to finish up the loft it looks incomplete? Nice job of trimming the leaving room and painting it
Hi! It’s not a main priority right now. We will get it done soon though
Your living room looks like it should be in a decorator magazine
That’s the biggest compliment. 🫶
I love it! Y'all never disappoint me. Lydia, you are a wizard with a caulking gun, and a roller/paintbrush! This living room is beautiful. I can't wait to move in!!!
Thank you so much Charles!!😁😃
I love how your home is coming together it looks great! Happy holidays!
Thank you! You too!
How I LOVE the living room!! The grass on the upper part of the wall is the most unexpected, perfect accent. The tree - what a great idea to make a garland of different balls in the red, white and black. From what I remember, you had a beautiful tree last year, but this year’s tree takes the prize! Y’all make every video so exciting and new and I can’t wait for the next one. Merry Christmas 🎄🎁 🎅
Thank you! Lydia wanted to add that in and we both ended up loving it. We appreciate all the support and time you take to comment. Merry Christmas!🎁
Looking good guys🤓,
I absolutely love it!
👍😍❤
Thank you!! 😁
What a beautiful Christmas tree y’all

Hello my dears, I had never seen the tree done like this but I loved it, it was beautiful, hugs from Portugal ❤🥰🇵🇹
Thank you so much!!
Ah guys it looks amazing... ye have come so far, but I love that ye never rushed it (right now Jim is probably saying well not really but I was on a crocodile crunch) I reckon right behind that amazing couch flanking the doors a console table each side with lamps would seriously set it off.....anyway .happy Christmas ye southerns from another southerner ( well I am here in the amazing southerly west coast of West Cork, Ireland)
Thank you so much!❤️ Merry Christmas!🎄
