Can you make a SHORT of your dad saying it’s okay to embrace moving something you love for a change that makes living together more meaningful and enjoyable!
Wow! I was amazed with the huge difference the trim and paint color made when it came to the “floating” animals! So smart. It looks so much more purposeful and cozy now.
This is beautiful! I hope we get to see more of their home as you continue making changes. LOVE! I want to see your dad's pool table space as well and when your mom gets her island!
Agree. I would have loved an overall view of the whole space. It was hard to get the vision she was talking about, for me anyway. The little shots of the different areas looked fabulous! How bout it Lisa? ❤❤
oh my goodness!!! what a difference you have made! I hope your dad is also now enjoying his bar area more. Sometimes we buy an item of furniture because we actually dream of a FEELING, but once we get it home, it doesn't always translate. I hope your Dad can FEEL now, that what he wanted his bar to create and why he wanted a pool table is finally able to happen thanks to skills that he didn't have. Now, they are a destination together creating years of future memories and new traditions that hadn't been happening if it just all stayed the same. It might not have been broken before, but "better is better". I hope he is encouraged to share with you other visions he had for his home that he would like guidance to tweak. What a beautiful gift you and Andrea have given your parents, all the sisters and brother-in-laws and all of the grandchildren
Love the "shouse" concept. Did you know that in Northern Germany/probably also the Netherlands, farmers lived in a "Hallenhaus" which is basically the same concept? They were build 13th to 15th century and many can still be visited today. Some are kept the same and work as a museum, others are renovated into modern living spaces. They all have living quarters combined with a large shed for tools and cattle, with a big open living area where the open fire was. I wonder if the "shouse" derived from it when settlers came to America. So cool to hear about this concept in an American setting, it makes perfect sense that people thought of it elsewhere, too.
I think your Mama is blessed to have children who love her and your dad so much that you gave up of your time, treasure and talents to bring their home to life. Good job, you all. God bless each of you.
You really need TWO of those sectionals to fit the space😊 they would fill the room out more, provide plenty of seating and look very custom! The whole room is looking great. May I also suggest carrying over some of the green paint to the kitchen area, maybe add the same molding and paint to the left of the wood stove/rock.
I love the home of your parents!! The land looks wonderful! We have an open concept home and have done just what you recommended. We carved out little spaces to create a cozy space. Thank you for sharing your parents home. I've often suggested a Q & A with your parents as they did such a wonderful job raising their family. I would love to hear their ideas on everything about raising a family!! God bless your family!!
Thank goodness we mothers have daughters that can help us with design! My daughter has a great eye for design and she helps me a lot! Beautiful home! Great ideas!🙌🏻👏
You all did a great job!!! It looks really good & I’m sure feels so much better for your mom and dad. Isn’t funny how we can get stuck in our ways and not realize there’s a better way? 😊
I enjoyed this, thank you. I like the use of spaces. With a game room area and the dining/living space, and the space is still large enough for children to play nearby 🥰 . The simple solution to the floating trophies was great!! Really nice. I also like how it’s evolving over time, For budget, but also, when you have lived in a home for 20 years, even wanted changes, can be an adjustment. Easing into the changes is a great way to go. Thanks for sharing.
We had a shouse 40 years ago when our kids were little and my husband had a mechanic business. After moving a country church and making it into our home, 30 years later we are in the process of doing a shouse again for our retirement years. We are looking forward to one level and everything in one space again. Thanks Jo
Wow everything look great ! As a lover of having some area rugs I personally think a nice rug would look fantastic under the table. It would further define the space and would provide more warmth. I’d get a darker rug and one that has a light weight so you can clean it and it would dry easily ! Excellent job! Would love to meet your mom and other sister !
Very nice! I think your Mon needs another sectional, the room is large enough and it will offer more seating for the whole family when you’re all together.
I like you all have done. It's nice to see done over time and not all at once. Will you share more of how your parents house is turning out when they get the other pieces in?
This was so helpful and enjoyable to watch. We are looking for our next home and who knows we may try something like this. Our current home is open concept but not nearly the volume 😅
Beautiful! We are practically neighbors. We are in south central IL and here, we call them "Barndominiums". We completely redid our old farmhouse 22 years ago (wish we would have done a barndominium then) and completely gutted our entire home. Opened up the kitchen dining area and also turned the old garage (and added 8 ft. onto it) because our family was beginning to grow. Have 3 kids that married and now we have 16 grands and adding another to the clan this fall so we knew we would need more room. We basically did the same thing. Couldn't tear out all the walls b/c some were load bearing, but opened up the entire area and now we have so much space to move around. The kids/grands live close and we get together all the time so this new space is amazing. Anyone thinking of doing this needs a great vision of what they want and go for it. It seems daunting at first, but when it's done, it's so satisfying to have so much space. The grands are all over this house and we have room for everyone with some to spare. Great video.
Oh I love it! My husband and I have a goal of Lord willing one day building a barn house much like this one. I love how y’all are making it have its own spaces with how open it is!
This is such a special video. I am so inspired by your parents and the life-giving home they have created. It’s easy to want our homes to be “finished”, when in reality, it’s the story that makes the home. The thought of starting to build a house that my daughters help me finish is so good, true, and beautiful. I would love to hear your mom speak about her marriage and motherhood journey because whatever she did, it worked. My life’s dream is a home full of grandbabies running in and out from the creek!
Great job!! Is there room at the end of the dining table on that wall for a large hutch to kind of balance out the fireplace rock on other side of room? This is a much better use of the space! Love it!
I love the decision to do the picture rail and paint below it. To extend the kitchen more, I can see a hutch/kitchenette ( even the old entertainment unit) on the wall in the old dining space. It could be used as a coffee bar or extra storage and has the bonus of obscuring the view into the toilet.
What a difference these changes have made! It looks so cozy yet sleek and so much more usable for all. Your mom is lucky to have the helpful input from you and your sister. So often you just don't see the potential in your own space and need another set of eyes or two to help you see the vision. And I totally get your father's it's perfectly fine why change it. I live with one of those too 😞❤🐝
Well done ladies!! Everything you've done is perfect so far-cannot wait to see what else yall do. Keep us posted Lisa. This is all SO great. The sectional brings out the warm color of the wall beautifully.
Everything looks amazing. My daughter has a open concept and it does not feel cozy and warm at all. I'll have to introduce her to your channel. Thank you for sharing!
I enjoyed this different type of video. I like how the end result looked!! Nice! I think the color used on the wall looks much better than what was there, by the way. I like open concepts a lot. That table looks perfect. I like it.
Definitely needed the visuals to see what you're talking about! Big improvement, especially the two-toned wall color to break down the big area of wall.
You, your Mom and sister did an amazing job at this open concept home! Can you please also show us the bar area? I would also like to know how high the TV is mounted off the floor and how tall the credenza is? I would love to mimic this look, but on a smaller scale in our cabin. You have such great decorating ideas!
This is just beautiful! But I would have to add some portable 'walls' to separate a few areas. Art galleries use them. They are as tall as you want and you can 'roll' them into place and lock them down. Does the noise in that completely open space echo? But I love how it looks. Well done!
Awesome job! We have wanted a barndominum metal building when wood was off the charts expensive. Now wood is back down lower than metal so we are thinking post frame building.
I love the paint to anchor the deer mounts, but shouldn't it go on the other side of the door too, to finish that wall??? Maybe it's just me.... I like the idea for sure. I have a hard time loving my open concept but this inspired me for sure!
Wow, I absolutely love this concept! We call those down here in the south, barndominums. I'm hoping to have one for myself one day, so your ideas were very inspiring to me! Just beautiful!
Good job working with your parents belonging and adding new style and color! It is a hard thing to work with other peoples loved belongings, but you have done it well!!!
Great ideas! We are building something similar right now and I've been struggling to figure out how to make it feel cozy and not just one giant open space. This was helpful!
I absoutley love this!!! We want to build our retirement home on our 40 acres that we have owned 18yrs!!! Time for a home, we built a small get away cabin on it when we first bought it❤❤❤
Love what you guys did. OK and what if you put two chairs by the fire place for conversation or reading area. Boy sure if there is enough space there for it. But great job
Love it so much!! My husband and 4 sons are also hunters and until this past winter I’ve had deer and turkey mounts in my house. I would love to have the space your parents have so we could display them again!
Can you make a SHORT of your dad saying it’s okay to embrace moving something you love for a change that makes living together more meaningful and enjoyable!

Me too!!
Agree. I would have loved an overall view of the whole space.
It was hard to get the vision she was talking about, for me anyway. The little shots of the different areas looked fabulous! How bout it Lisa? ❤❤
Would love a series on the entire barn house makeover! This was great.
oh my goodness!!! what a difference you have made! I hope your dad is also now enjoying his bar area more. Sometimes we buy an item of furniture because we actually dream of a FEELING, but once we get it home, it doesn't always translate.

What a beautiful gift you and Andrea have given your parents, all the sisters and brother-in-laws and all of the grandchildren
Both of my parents are really enjoying the changes!
What about moving the bear in with the pool table and bar?
Looks beautiful! The paint on the wall makes a big difference. Can't wait to see the kitchen finished.
Love the "shouse" concept. Did you know that in Northern Germany/probably also the Netherlands, farmers lived in a "Hallenhaus" which is basically the same concept? They were build 13th to 15th century and many can still be visited today. Some are kept the same and work as a museum, others are renovated into modern living spaces.

Very interesting...thanks for sharing!!
This is a practical concept - shopkeepers have been living above or behind their stores for centuries. It makes sense that farms would do likewise.
My Opa grew up in one in the Netherlands!
More of these type of videos, please! Your parent’s house look great!
I think your Mama is blessed to have children who love her and your dad so much that you gave up of your time, treasure and talents to bring their home to life. Good job, you all. God bless each of you.

May I also suggest carrying over some of the green paint to the kitchen area, maybe add the same molding and paint to the left of the wood stove/rock.
Yes I agree with you. They have so many people to seat, that would be a great idea.
I agree that an identical sectional sofa on the opposite side leaving a small pass through in the middle would be fabulous and so custom looking 🤗💕
Y’all did a great job. Would like to see the kitchen when finished
Their home is really looking beautiful. My two favorites are making "rooms" within the open concept and the lovely wall color under the animal mounts.
Great positioning of the sectional to define the living space!
I always rearrange ppl's furniture in my mind. To me it's part of homemaking
What y'all have done is like night and day. I love, love, love the spaces! Keep us updated as she adds to her design.
I love the home of your parents!! The land looks wonderful! We have an open concept home and have done just what you recommended. We carved out little spaces to create a cozy space. Thank you for sharing your parents home. I've often suggested a Q & A with your parents as they did such a wonderful job raising their family.

WOW!!!!! This is an amazing transformation!!!!!!! Your parent's home is so unique and beautiful!!!!!!!!!
I’ve been away for a while due to personal reasons, but this was a reminder of how I love your clever mind as applied to home life. Thank you!
Thank goodness we mothers have daughters that can help us with design! My daughter has a great eye for design and she helps me a lot! Beautiful home! Great ideas!🙌🏻👏
Oh my word! YES!! My husband would be happy to leave everything "as is" FOREVER! LOL
Beautiful changes!!
You all did a great job!!! It looks really good & I’m sure feels so much better for your mom and dad. Isn’t funny how we can get stuck in our ways and not realize there’s a better way? 😊

Thank you! They re really enjoying it and we sure had a good time working together on this project.
Really enjoyed the tour. Extra special as you didn’t use all voiceover. Your mom’s place looks awesome! You have a knack for cozy decorating.
We had a shouse 40 years ago when our kids were little and my husband had a mechanic business. After moving a country church and making it into our home, 30 years later we are in the process of doing a shouse again for our retirement years. We are looking forward to one level and everything in one space again. Thanks Jo
We are so looking forward to building our retirement home in the country on 40 acres, we have owned and dreamed of a one story home
Adding the extra color on the walls... wooooooooow ¡¡ it made a world of difference Mashalla so so soooo lovely
Wow everything look great ! As a lover of having some area rugs I personally think a nice rug would look fantastic under the table. It would further define the space and would provide more warmth. I’d get a darker rug and one that has a light weight so you can clean it and it would dry easily ! Excellent job! Would love to meet your mom and other sister !
Your parents have some great kids!
Such a beautiful transformation into something so warm and cozy! All of that just brings warmth to the space! It’s absolutely beautiful!
In the Northeast they call them... Barndominiums. ,...LOVE how you created and made the wall below the deer in the living room space.
Wow! It looks great with the separate areas, very cozy, can’t wait to see the island in her kitchen! 😊
Wow! It looks fabulous!!! I love the changes to the animal mount wall, and the dining table is gorgeous!
Thanks so much! 😊
Totally warm and welcoming! I know your mom must be SO happy! 💕
Very!
It looks great. In Texas and Tennesse we call this type of build a barndominium.
Very nice! I think your Mon needs another sectional, the room is large enough and it will offer more seating for the whole family when you’re all together.
I agree, beautiful room but the sofa is too small for the space and their very large family.
You have made your parents, family, home so beautiful, well done. What a lovely thing to do. 👏👏❤❤
we really enjoyed working together on it!
I like you all have done. It's nice to see done over time and not all at once. Will you share more of how your parents house is turning out when they get the other pieces in?
This was so helpful and enjoyable to watch. We are looking for our next home and who knows we may try something like this. Our current home is open concept but not nearly the volume 😅
VERY NICE!.... Great Job Girls .. it looks homey and comfortable
Wow !!! The home looks beautiful!! The changes were perfect !! Glad you girls are great at helping your parents !!! Keep up the great work !!!
Thank you so much!!
Looking good! I know you parents are thankful
I love the changes and I can see those described in my mind. Beautiful!

Wonderful to have space for everyone!!
I always wondered how you could all fit in your parents house each week!! Nice re-purposing the space, beautiful!
Thank you! 😊
Oh I love it! My husband and I have a goal of Lord willing one day building a barn house much like this one. I love how y’all are making it have its own spaces with how open it is!
thank you for doing this on youtube I don't go to those other channels you were speaking about...
Would love to see the other game area you’re talking about in another video!

I love this video! Your Mom's house is so neat and organized. You sure have the touch for decorating. Please keep us posted with more changes.
We did the same thing! Started with plans for a separate home but now we love our bardo ( shouse)!
Your parents home looks great, quite a challenge! You girls did a great job!
excellent changes and great explanation of the steps. BTW, we call them barndominium.
You said you were going to share the renovation from your parents home, and you did!!! Love the follow through. Excited to watch.
I love the decision to do the picture rail and paint below it.
To extend the kitchen more, I can see a hutch/kitchenette ( even the old entertainment unit) on the wall in the old dining space. It could be used as a coffee bar or extra storage and has the bonus of obscuring the view into the toilet.

We enjoyed working on this and sharing ideas together.
Fascinating video! Thank you! What a sweet, wonderful thing you've done for your parents. Truly a thoughtful, and we'll done job!
The home looks so stylish and welcoming.
Beautiful ❤. I didn’t realize you had a second channel! So grateful it popped up in my feed ❤❤❤
What a difference! You all did a fantastic job creating beautiful designated living spaces without having any walls !
Thanks so much! 😊
Well done ladies!! Everything you've done is perfect so far-cannot wait to see what else yall do. Keep us posted Lisa. This is all SO great. The sectional brings out the warm color of the wall beautifully.
Thank you so much!!
Everything looks amazing. My daughter has a open concept and it does not feel cozy and warm at all. I'll have to introduce her to your channel. Thank you for sharing!
Happy Wife happy life! Looking forward to seeing all the updates! So glad she let you do this.
Dramatic change!
It looks welcoming, cozy & has defined spaces.
Love it!
Thank you! 😊

Love what you did ! You have a wonderful ideas…simple beautiful ❤😊
This is great! Thank you for sharing. This change made a huge difference in such a great way.
Nice of you gals to help your parents ❤
We had fun!
Wow. Never have heard of this in the U.S. It reminds me of some other centuries, in other countries.
This is just beautiful! But I would have to add some portable 'walls' to separate a few areas. Art galleries use them. They are as tall as you want and you can 'roll' them into place and lock them down. Does the noise in that completely open space echo? But I love how it looks. Well done!
Quite a transformation. It turned out really nice with good flow and symetry. Great job!
Thank you! 😊
Great results so far! I've seen several repurposed entertainment centers similar to theirs used as kitchen cabinets... just a thought.
Awesome job! We have wanted a barndominum metal building when wood was off the charts expensive. Now wood is back down lower than metal so we are thinking post frame building.
I love the paint to anchor the deer mounts, but shouldn't it go on the other side of the door too, to finish that wall??? Maybe it's just me.... I like the idea for sure. I have a hard time loving my open concept but this inspired me for sure!

Good job working with your parents belonging and adding new style and color! It is a hard thing to work with other peoples loved belongings, but you have done it well!!!
wow, super amazing!!
HAPPY TUESDAY Lisa, family, fur babies, and feathered friends. YOUR PARENT'S Property is absolutely ALLURING. STTB
Love the house concept… especially for land and big family! You guys really defined spaces for the living and dining areas… so fun.
Thanks so much!!
Great ideas! We are building something similar right now and I've been struggling to figure out how to make it feel cozy and not just one giant open space. This was helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
beautiful! Looks so much better.
I think so too!
The house looks beautiful and comfortable.
It's called a Barndominium in Ga. My last house was one and it was great! I regret selling it at times. They are really very practical.
The changes you and your sisters did looks great. Really defined the different areas.
Really love the transformation. Great episode! Please continue to share upcoming changes!
Thank you! Will do!
WOW! How beautiful! ❤❤
Thank you! 😊
Well done!
Please thank your parent for inviting us I er to see Thier lovely home
I absoutley love this!!! We want to build our retirement home on our 40 acres that we have owned 18yrs!!! Time for a home, we built a small get away cabin on it when we first bought it❤❤❤
Wow! It's so beautiful. Such a great improvement. Your parents home is beautiful. Ty for sharing Lisa.
Love what you guys did. OK and what if you put two chairs by the fire place for conversation or reading area. Boy sure if there is enough space there for it. But great job
Love the house. The wall separation made a huge difference! I like the green color a lot!
Thank you!! 😊
So beautiful Lisa!! Love your parents house and the openness of it!
Oh wow!!!! Wow! Wow! Wow!! This is TOTALLY GORGEOUS!!! Uh! I absolutely love it. Yayyyy for your mom
This makeover is great!! I love the color y’all chose. This is such a fun family house ❤
Thank you!! 😊
Amazing!! The transformation is BEAUTIFUL. Awesome job!!!
Love it so much!! My husband and 4 sons are also hunters and until this past winter I’ve had deer and turkey mounts in my house. I would love to have the space your parents have so we could display them again!
I hope as more things are done at your parents you'll do some update videos so we can see more of cool transformation. 😊
Amazing job!❤
Thank you! 😄
