- Surviving The Renovation: My New House Makeover Update!
Alan and I have been in our new house for about five weeks now. The whole first floor is being gutted and remodeled and we are living in the basement. In this video I show you the progress and all the craziness of our major home remodel.
If you have décor ideas or tips on surviving a major remodel, I hope you will share your information in the comments section below the video. That way we can help each other!

My husband and I renovated our 1916-year-old home 20 years after we moved in and paid it off. We did all the work ourselves, inside and out. We were in our late 40's. There is no way at 67 that I have the desire or ambition to do that again. My husband would size down to a one floor plan and renovate an entire house all over again in a heartbeat and do the work himself. We have lived here for 40+ years. In between he single handedly has again remodeled some of the rooms since. It is great to have a handy man who can do anything. He's been a blessing and has saved us so much money by doing the work himself. You are so right Beth, late 40's into mid 60's made a huge difference for me! Your stress is normal. I have heard from so many who have built a home how stressful it is. The after will be your reward. God bless.
Hi Kathy. It’s so neat. Your husband can do all the work. My husband and I actually did the work ourselves and until our last house. It was hard work for sure!
A renovation is very stressful! Our coping reserves diminish as we get older. It takes tremendous energy to live among chaos for weeks/months. Be kind and gentle with yourself, and maybe vent to a girlfriend. Plus, get away from the house and take a break occasionally to restore! Hugs, Beth.
This is really great advice. ❤
Great advice..take a break from the chaos from time to time. ❤
Black window boxes was a great decision and I agree with the black on the door.
I love the home improvement content! Thank you bringing us along Beth!
I never realized what a fundamentally sweet and kind lady Beth is! So happy for her!!
You’re right. Negativity doesn’t help anything. We need to remember how fortunate we are to even be able to attempt a project. Many people don’t have that opportunity. I thoroughly enjoy your home remodel videos. Blessings.
Living vicariously through your home reno! Happy it's not me and JEALOUS it's not me, lol! Hey, you are NOT supposed to look beautiful through a home renovation!! Hope it is wonderful and that you and your hubby will be greatly blessed in your new 'digs!'
Hoo boy. Even remodels that go well can cause relationship issues! The chaos, noise and sometimes dust take their toll. We’ve been there too! It will all be worth it in the end.😉
The renovation is looking very good! Thank you for your positivity and the reminder about our attitude. I needed that today. ❤
Thanks Beth, for taking me along with your reno. Looks amazing. Have a good one.
My goodness Beth - y'all have a whole lot going on with your returning to work, moving, selling your house, both sets of parents moving/health issues!! of course you're stressed. I hope everything works out soon- prayers!!
I actually love those 2 tier countertops because they conceal any clutter or kitchen items that might be left out that day. I love mine for that reason!!
Excellent point!
How exciting! House is looking great! 🌷
It is going to be so gorgeous. I love it. Best wishes on the final stretch of this amazing renovation. Thanks for sharing the good, the bad and the ugly! 😂 I can so relate! Can’t wait to see it Beth! ❤
So enjoyed this video Beth. As one of your long time subscribers from your earliest of days, I am so honored to have watched you blossom into one of the finest you tube creators! I don’t always have time to watch your videos so I binge watch sometimes or pick and choose. You are an incredible woman . God bless and I love watching this house renovation . 🌸
“Do you apologize?” What an icebreaker. I love it Beth, and you for keeping it real. It is comforting to know that challenges come everyone’s way. Alan reacted pretty much exactly the way my husband would in similar situation, and you handled it pretty much as I would too. Your renovation will pass. Know that there are people worldwide rooting for you. Thank you for taking the time to share with us. It has put a spring in my step. XO
Very exciting! Sometimes renovations such as this are hard because you're not in control but it's looking wonderful! 20 yrs ago they were putting those 2 step bars tops in....hubby did the exact same thing to ours! Makes such a difference! Looking forward to the update videos!
Love the window boxes black and the idea of the front door being black! Cute builder. Kitchen looks much better without that extra shelving.
Love Brian’s cap! Go Hawkeyes🖤💛🖤💛🖤💛
Your new home is looking great after your first stage of remodelling! Plantain shutters are so nice, I've always wanted them too!
Wishing you lots of good luck for the next few stages as you deserve to take a rest and enjoy your new place.
You are amazing, inspirational and so beautiful inside and out!💖🍀💒
You are so right about attitude! Congratulations on your remodel progress. I can’t wait to see the completion!!
It’s looking great Beth!! Thank you for taking us along for the ride! Love watching the progress! 😊
WOW things are really moving fast now. So excited to see the results. It will be smashing . Good advice on cooling off and making peace. 💜
So exciting, Beth! It is going to be beautiful!!!
AWE!! You are stressed out Beth. The end result will be your beautiful home! You two will survive! God bless you both!
Glad to see your excitement with the progress and more positivity lol 😊. Hopefully that will keep up!
Thank you Beth. This was fun. Thanks for your honesty and great advice at the end. ❤
Love how you both solved the tension!!! Good on you!! Good role model !
I had no idea you could spray paint the motor/metal of a ceiling fan. Good to know.
Beth, you have had a LOT of stress in the past months. I agree about the importance of attitude. Thank you for the reminder, because I am about to go through a similar renovation (on a much smaller scale). I appreciate your sharing the “real”. Robin
Love the progress & beautiful renovations! You are so fortunate to be able to do it! Stress causes those fights & it’s good to air the issues to get through life’s challenges 🥰🙏🙏🙏 Alan is a keeper!😂❤️
Painting the window boxes black is a great idea. I love how everything is coming along. I’m not sure if I could do what you and Alan are doing. It takes courage and you’ve got it. ❤
love the 'fight' description. 🙂
I love how it’s going!
Beautiful home, can't wait to see all the improvements! Thanks for sharing!
Hi Beth, I’m so excited, thanks for the tour, and keep them coming. Like you, I can hardly wait!
Beth, I loved seeing how he lowered the counter. Thanks so much for sharing. 🌸
You are so welcome!
Love how the house is coming along Beth. Aww....🤗sorry you had that disagreement with your husband, but you know maybe it was for the best because it's made you more aware of the negativity (very understandable given the stress!) and helped you put things in perspective. Focus on the long goal - it is very stressful when workmen don't show up though - I get it....thanks for sharing and looking forward to more videos like this. Deep breaths through the nose - count for 5, hold for 3, breathe out for 5 - good stress reducer (do 10 of them) ❤💙❤
Your house is going to be absolutely beautiful. and more up-to-date.
yes guess I would be so stressed too to see alll that has to be done = good luck
Beth, I can't handle all the noise, so I have my dad managing much of the work. I usually leave if too much noise starts to bother me. As I mentioned in your last post I'm also going through a remodel.
What a great idea to remove that upper shelf on the kitchen counter.
I don’t know about the flower boxes and front door being black with the brown brick…not on the same color scheme. I like the bronze better. I would do real flowers too. I know some people are doing faux flowers but I think it takes away from the flower boxes. I would do away with the ceiling fans especially in a newly renovated home. I didn’t want them in our house but my husband did so we did a compromise and put in a fandelier. So much prettier and was a great compromise for us. Maybe you should look into going with a different decorator. Some of this is outdated but it is your house and you have to live there happily.
I miss arguments, we just got to where we can communicate and be appreciative of each other and the kid gone, just us, getting ready for retirement. Then he died ugh. So good on you to apprciate each other before going to bed, we never went to bed angry. You never know if you not going to wake up the next day. I am excited for you on the progrress and to see the finished result and all the expereince with flipping houses comes into play.
Greetings Beth! You are doing a much better job than I would have been able to!! I'm sure it's even further along now than in the video. Hang in there and take a few deep breaths. Love and blessings ♥️🙏
Thank you so much Jean! Yes, it is getting much further along. The bathroom is pretty much drywall and Thursday. The wood floor person starts bringing in the wood floors. That will take a week to two weeks and then we have 2 to 3 weeks of painting, the walls and the trim then the tile, then the carpet then we’re done! At least with the first floor. Yay!
Thank you for sharing your renovations! Sometimes it's hard to be positive during stressful moments, as always good words of wisdom...keeps things in perspective, thanks Beth!
It’s looking good!!!
Glad you were apologised to, you've been anxious!
Take care.
Hang in there Beth! Thanks for sharing your ups and downs. Love ya, Cindy 💗🌻
Love you too, Cindy!
I'm so excited for you! Everything seems to be coming along beautifully. Changes can be hard even for the good ones. Maybe toward the end when they're almost finished working on your house, you can take a mini vacation and come back to your new home refreshed. Just a thought. 🙂
I love that idea! Actually about a week ago we went to visit my son and his girlfriend in Grand Rapids. It was great to get away and wonderful to see them.
Hi Beth. Its going to be so beautiful! You have such great taste!!!
Thank you so much!
Looking great Beth!
Looking great!!
Beautiful thank you for sharing
Looks awesome! We're also doing a few bathrooms here in Colo... you have to pack on your patience, but so worth it!
Love your new home! I can’t wait to see the cabinet makeover. I have knotty alder cabinets as well and can’t wait to see how filling in the knots turns out.
Ok, ok. looking good.. Love seeing the progress. I couldn't see the vision before, but I do now!!
Thank you so much!
I love sleeping in my curled up position❤
thank you for sharing info about pillows.i have tried to be back sleeper but just can't do it so this info may help me.i am so excited about your house and how open it will be.....cant wait to see light color cabinets, woohoo 😀😀
You are so welcome! Thanks for your very nice comments!
Did you forget to link the pillow? I am very interested in getting one. I am a side sleeper and have a big crease in my forehead to show for it....yikes. I would love trying to become a back sleeper. I had some surgery a couple of years ago where I had to sleep on my back for several months while waiting for expanders to be removed and the crease on my forehead disappeared. Thanks for sharing your remodel it is looking fantastic.
My apologies. The link is there now. It is 1030 here and I’m actually lying on the back sleeper pillow.
So fjun seeing this remodel in progress. If it were my kitchen, I'd do away with the funky angle of the kitchen sink island, and make it come out straight from the wall into the kitchen. That way it won't feel so crowded coming into the kitchen from the great room, and will look more modern.
Good ideas!
Love this. So exciting. Keep us involved ❤
Thank you! Will do!
Hi Beth! I didn’t see the link to the back sleeper pillow you spoke about at the beginning of your video. Sorry if I somehow overlooked it, but I wanted to find out more about it. Thanks! ❤
In the description. Sorry about that!
@@FiftyPlusBeauty Awesome, thanks so much!
Go Hawks!
I’m not finding a link for your pillow at the beginning of the video…
This to shall pass ❤
❤❤❤
I had a fight with my husband today. I ended up texting him and telling him I love him so much and explained why I was angry. Fight was immediately over with his I love you more reply. Quicker the apology or explanation the better. Congrats on progress with remodel.
Thanks for sharing!! That was wonderful of you to do and produced a great response in your husband.
Omg NOOO, that raised counter keeps the sink and faucet concealed from the relaxing room.
Why destroy that????😢
I agree. Seems like there is pressure to take it out and go to one level. I am looking at new countertops and this decision has me frozen. I once knocked a china cup off a counter in a vacation rental without the back behind the counter. Maybe that if where my fear comes from.
I believe she just wanted it to look more open and it does.
I couldn't decide what I wanted. In the end I chose the shelved effect (to conceal) but, it definitely does close off the room. I was okay with that - but if I wanted it more open like Beth I understand taking it out
I agree with you, @suzihazlove4979. For me, I cannot relax and/or entertain when the kitchen is a distraction and disaster. The raised counter hides pots and pans in the sink and plates cleared from the dining room table waiting to be placed in the dishwasher, etc. I specifically had the raised countertop added to keep this sort of thing out of view. Even though it does cut the room off a bit, it gives me the freedom to hang with my guests and then clean up after they leave.
@@susanbaker2796 mabe cuz this little lady is petite age needed to remove any obstructions.
But now the pressure to keep the sunk area clean, ALL THE TIME? no way possible. I'd hate to look at all that . Just make me think of cleaning.
🥰🙏
NO FAKE flowers on the outside!!!
I know....what a way to cheapen this beautiful house !
Sounds like they live in a drought stricken area so perhaps there are water restrictions. Maybe drought tolerant plants would be a good alternative
Would you like to come to ireland …..???????? The electrician
💭💭 I use to be a side sleeper
B U T
💭💭 I started worrying about lines in face then started training MY BODY to deal with sleeping on MY back❕
💭💭 also MY heart 💜 condition ONLY likes ME sleeping 💤 on MY back SO I guess it works OUT❕
💭💭 also USE a silk pillow case 🩷
💋
Thanks for sharing that! I didn’t realize being a back sleeper was good for one’s heart. Thanks for sharing that.
Fake flowers....WHY ??
It’s super hot here in Kansas in the summer and there’s no way I could keep 4 window boxes watered.
@@FiftyPlusBeauty Have you considered drought resistant plants. Not all of them are cacti.
You admit that your husband was right YET you still made him to apologise 😮? Oh no that’s not very nice Beth 🫣
❤❤❤
