    Gearing up for some large makeovers next week and I couldn’t be more excited. I wanted to slow down and take a beat to give some basic tips and tricks from electrical to door hardware. I know this is a simple makeover but thought it'd be great for those of you thinking you need all these tools to make the biggest difference - you do not!

    This is for all my humans that keep hitting me up about what can you do without all the tools - where here's a take on it first go around! Same thing with Tanya's studio makeover. We are headed into some really insane makeovers that I am so damn proud of so we're taking it easy this past week. September is hands down one of my favorite months of makeovers ...eek!

      Absolutely love the variety of things you're doing on your channel, I'm so invested in Holly's home makeover now. Love how her sense of style goes so well with your mad DIY skills!

    • @Emily-ov1qo
      @Emily-ov1qo Před 3 lety

      I can't wait to see what you do next. I love the green cabinets. Do you plan on painting the others green or will you keep them in the wood tone? Or maybe black? Excited to see what you do next.

  • @Juju-bm1sh
    @Juju-bm1sh Před 3 lety +64

    I love how you explain how things are done. As a 50+woman, I feel we were never taught how to do simple hardware fixes... always were encouraged to learn to sew and crap like that... great to be taught these simple fixes by another woman. Thank you soooo much!!!

  • @laurenau8397

    What the heck, never have I imagined a black ceiling but I AM OBSESSED. Thank you and to Holly for being so creative and unique!!

      @charisma-hornum-fries Před 3 lety +3

      It’s also great in smaller rooms as it makes the space look magically bigger. I’ve done black dyed plaster from above my head hight in my tiny bathroom and I will never do white walls and ceilings again in smaller places.

    • @kennethyeung9407
      @kennethyeung9407 Před 3 lety +2

      I AGREE!! the way Rachel used the black ceiling with the door at the end of the hall gave the illusion it is like an infinity hall or something

    • @lindarahmeyer2668
      @lindarahmeyer2668 Před 3 lety +1

      I have toyed with painting my hallway ceiling black for quite awhile. I so wish we could have seen the way the black ended as you approached the front door area. The problem I'm having is deciding how to transition the black and the white ceiling.

    • @marias5795
      @marias5795 Před 3 lety +1

      Charisma Hornum-Fries I have a small bedroom and not a lot natural light comes in it’s kinda dark,painting the ceiling black will help?Because I thought that it would really darken the room as it is already small and dark

  • @kerra7386
    @kerra7386 Před 3 lety +58

    Hey don’t get discouraged about having to redo the electrical a few times. My husband was an electrician, and he’s told me over and over again that when your putting lights and new fixtures into old houses (and houses in general) not everyone who previously wired them, wires them correctly and it can be confusing to figure out how it was previously wired to make it right for the new fixtures. So even professionals have their days when they have to go back and forth and trace the problem. He said a lot of his work was just following wires until you found the one wire that was giving all the problems 😂 your doing a great job girl! Keep up the good work!

  • @hannahl610
    @hannahl610 Před 3 lety +63

    I love that you spotlighted ‘built-in’ features that people often overlook or forget they can change. Can’t remember the last makeover I saw where they changed a door handle or light switch

  • @sfjvbc12

  • @myrahahmad
    @myrahahmad Před 3 lety +116

    I wish you had used painters tape when painting the edges of the ceiling and doorway, it would have looked nice having a sharp line

    • @LivingtoDIYwithRachelMetz
      @LivingtoDIYwithRachelMetz  Před 3 lety +42

      Hahaha my impatience gets the best of me. I have about 50 projects at once. Paint touch ups are easy to go back to xx.

    • @cinderwhite
      @cinderwhite Před 3 lety +20

      The texture on the walls and ceiling make it difficult, it will never be a true clean line.

    • @ahumanaperson
      @ahumanaperson Před 3 lety +13

      V M I’d have to add some kind of straight trim to achieve a clean break, I couldn’t look at those wobbly lines every day.

  • @pinky79933
    @pinky79933 Před 3 lety +4

    I love the way the black door in the hallway ‘disappears’ when the lights are off, such an illusion it’s so cool 😎

  • @Cherishedprints-stationery

    Yes, why are the simplest tasks the hardest? I have brought to tears over them and sometimes it feels like every step to getting something done is an endless battle. I totally feel you, but I'm also relieved it isn't only me. Thank you so showing your struggles. It actually makes me feel more confident.

    I really appreciated that last little segment about tying in the design elements throughout the house- like with you walking down the hallway and explaining everything, it just made sense!! I absolutely love what you are doing, Holly’s and your design is GOALS

  • @melissajackson5452

    In a million years I don't think I would have thought to paint that one door and ceiling black- it's fantastic! Such a simple, small thing that has a big impact. Can't wait for phase #2

  • @thelifeofrhi
    @thelifeofrhi Před 3 lety

  • @kaitlyncraft4592
    @kaitlyncraft4592 Před 3 lety

    I think the gold door knob on the black door will look so stunning! It’ll definitely add a little pop of color and still be chic. Loved your thought process in everything!

  • @amandacampbell1959
    @amandacampbell1959 Před 3 lety

    The cabinet door changes and the black behind the natural wood- crazy how much of a difference that makes!!

  • @nikkiep23
    @nikkiep23 Před 3 lety +11

    Lol Rachel the first thought I had was, "I know she's going to change out that boob light". That's the first thing I did when i purchased my home last year was change out the light fixtures ( well my handyman) I actually bought that same light fixture from lowes.com. it makes such a difference in my hallway. Awesome job once again!

  • @DorianParpari
    @DorianParpari Před 3 lety +45

    I need this. My dad replaced all the switches in my house that I bought 2 years ago but I am having an issue with shorting out for my bedroom and dining room (plant gallery). I think the wire overheated and he says I need to trace the wire and repair it...dont know how man. I'm not too worried. What ever a carpenter or electrician can do, there is Google university, the Rachel channel, and DIY land. I always leave inspired after watching your videos.

  • @lara_xy
    @lara_xy Před 3 lety +3

    Oh wow the last shot of this just looks amazing, I am absolutely in love with the made over kitchen area and how it ties in perfectly with the snippet of bathroom we saw... What a pretty house!

  • @harmonyjoy

  • @Housewarmin
    @Housewarmin Před 3 lety +63

    I’m really not a fan of the wood slats covering the door. It looks like a jail cell. Maybe some hanging plants or photos can help.

    • @LivingtoDIYwithRachelMetz
      @LivingtoDIYwithRachelMetz  Před 3 lety +51

      Def do that! That's great feedback. This is Holly's house so her design rules go here. I don't think there is a right or wrong way to design since it's only your space that will need correction since you love and live there, you know?

    • @kcanded
      @kcanded Před 3 lety +6

      I think painting it black OR white would work.

      I love the plant idea but it sort of is a puppy prison lol they've gotta have line of site but have you ever tried to stop a big pooch from leaving a room without a gate/door? It's ruff... I'm sorry...

  • @lisaschreiber2893
    @lisaschreiber2893 Před 3 lety +23

    I think the optical illusion looks great! with the incredibly short ceiling and how gorgeous the light fixture is, I would have probably left off the glass cover that hides a lot of the gorgeous gold frame and the Edison bulbs. oh and completely off subject, I love your earrings.

    • @LivingtoDIYwithRachelMetz
      @LivingtoDIYwithRachelMetz  Před 3 lety

      Thanks for the feedback!

    • @septemily
      @septemily Před 3 lety +3

      Idk, I quite like the glass cover. It makes it look finished and like a seamless part of the ceiling

  • @p.kimberlythomas1255
    @p.kimberlythomas1255 Před 3 lety

    I loooved the black ceiling to the floor door. That was inspired. I agree that the black do may need a gold handle. I also loved that you painted the area around the cabinets black white the natural wood doors. Gorgeous. I’m loving this series.

  • @craftyzara3552

    @CanCraneDoIt Před 3 lety

    It’s a real treat working on these old so-cal homes. When I was replacing some of our outlets and fixtures some of the outlets weren’t grounded properly by whomever did it last, so much old wiring and most the wires were old horsehair wires and all black. I’ve been wrapping the hot wires with some red electrical tape when taking them apart to remind myself which wire was hot.

  • @heidibay6799
    @heidibay6799 Před 3 lety

    Your video could not have come at a better time. I started to tackle removing my hallway light but stopped because nothing made sense. It absolutely makes sense now!! Thank you so much for putting out videos that are so empowering and inspiring 🖤

  • @SeasonalFrostbite
    @SeasonalFrostbite Před 3 lety

    I LOVE it. Simple and the the black is hot. I think the gold handles would add nice contrast without messing with the black and white theme. The black ceiling tricks the eye to thinking the ceiling is higher and thus making the hallway appear longer and bigger. Just painting the wall and trim the same color does the same for small rooms as well.

  • @Aiden0422
    @Aiden0422 Před 3 lety +1
