“Finally feel accomplished?” Girl! You are most definitely accomplished.
Awww hahah thank you! 🥰
As she stands in front of the beautiful custom fridge doors she built 😂 her workaholism is precious
I was just coming to say the same!
You are amazing with your attention to detail !
MacCenna. You have really outdone yourself! Definitely accomplished!
Anyone else constantly check the video time bc they don’t want it to end 😂😭 the kitchen is looking SO GOOD Macenna, I’m absolutely going to seal my kitchen as much as this whenever I do a renovation!
Me ☝️
Yes...absolutely me! Some how her vids are longer than they feel. So much content...and yet I could watch her vids for way longer without feeling like it's a long viewing. Damn I love her Sunday posts.
Yep
I won't let myself check and instead live in this short dream-land as if the video will go on forever 🤪
Yesss
When you painted the area by the hood with the custom paint, it finished the area beautifully. As you sealed the amazing window sills and tile, the materials came alive. Your attention to detail elevates your kitchen to a higher level, especially with your custom cabinet feet. Your music choices for this video were lovely. Your video felt like a movie. Well done! 🟤⚫🖌❇
Omg wow thank you so much!!!!!!!
Absolutely all of the above!
I’m so with you! 💯 % !
so exciting macenna! the kitchen has been such an enormous labor of love, i’m sure it will be such an exciting relief when you’re finished. it’s all coming together so beautifully!
thank you so much!!!! such a labor of love! its kinda crazy its almost finished
I would have bought furniture legs and cut them in half. I’m talking about the shorter ones like those used under a couch
I need a “Macenna’s Texas home paints and stains” collection!! The stain you essentially custom made is BEAUTIFUL ❤️❤️
I agree wholeheartedly. I’m in love with her color palette!
With each episode of this home's renovation, (since the demo days) I have been so proud of your progress. The joy you exude from each completed project is infectious. You truly are an inspiration. Thank you for sharing and showing us what empowerment can look like.
Wow thank you so much! That means the world to me
I noticed that little spot, too. Glad you painted it. You really could do that whole wall in that color for flow. Would make your beautiful hood pop more, too. Everything is so beautiful!!!
Love your progress! Since you already have the paint for the tile, you could paint the outlets on the back splash the same color to "hide" it 😊 so exciting everytime you upload a new video
Romina, that's a great idea! ♥
I just Said Same thing 😂🤣😂 Truly we just adore this Girl so Very Much 💞💝💯
I like the metal tone.
GREAT IDEAAAAA🤔
Omgggggg yes!
Macenna, the hot wire (black wire) loops around the GOLD SCREW and the neutral wire (white wire) loops around the SILVER SCREW.
I would be so tempted to use that paint sample to paint any outlet plates on the backsplash! I think it would look so seamless.
The attention to the small details really does elevate the look. The feet on the cabinets are perfection!
I’m so glad you painted that little area between the range hood and the window!! It was a small detail but made a huge difference.Another detail I think you should consider is bringing the bead-board around the wall from the dinning room to meet with the refrigerator. Especially since they are both pashmina the white wall sticks out and seems unfinished.
ABSOLUTELY,at 29:42, that’s all that I could think about.
I think painting that little section between the hood moulding and the window moulding made SUCH a difference! It looks so very good. And the little cabinet feet look SO cute on there! You could even paint the plate for the outlet that's in the tiles now, too, if you wanted to make it disappear even more! I love your videos so much. 🥺💜
I absolutely love your style. Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays are my favorite days of the week!
When I started watching MaCenna she was just starting to use simple tools to make things like coffee tables and benches. I remember her being hesitant, since it was all so new to her. Now she's confidently refinishing windows, and framing stud lumber, and building kitchen cabinets from scratch... The list goes a on and on. Now she's fixing her own electrical wiring!
You just do it all now little Miss Electrician. Do you ever sit back in Awe and wonder at all you've accomplished in the cottage? It amazes me!♥️♥️♥️
I am happy that you have found a home you love in LA, but the cottage has my heart! It was so awesome to watch you accomplish so much!
I hope finishing all of these many "little" projects is giving you the peace you deserve in this amazing home. You have talked about doing them for a while and I know that can weigh down your mind. ❤️
Totally! I can finally look at the space and not think of the million little things I still need to do
You MaCenna are proof anyone can do whatever they put their mind to! You are truly inspiring and such a breath of fresh air! Love everything you do.
if you have any extra wainscoting, I think there needs to be a piece between the refrigerator and the wainscoting in the dining room. That way it wraps around that wall and gives a clean/finished look!
I thought the same. I also think the wainscotting in the dining room needs to be taller, up to the seam in the window panels. This will make that area cosier and make the artwork above the wainscotting feel proportional to the room and walls. This will also eliminate the contrasting style idea of having box frames above wainscotting aka traditional above ummm vintage isn't the correct word, victorian?
Hi MaCenna, progress is looking so good!
I'm not an electrician, but I was taught that black (hot) goes to the copper screws and white (neutral) goes to the silver screws. Do you have an outlet tester plug to make sure it's not reversed? And since the outlet is near your sink, I'd suggest a GFCI outlet, some building codes require it when near any water source, for added protection. Unless it's already on a line with GFCI if it's coming off of the garbage disposal or something.
agree, i made a similar comment
Yes the neutral (white) and ground (green or bare) are always on the same side. This corresponds to the long and short prongs. Short one is always live (black or red if doing split plugs) so less chance for kids to stick metal objects in there 😉
I commented along similar lines as well…I really hope she sees one!!
As an electrician I was hoping someone made this comment! Thank you!
@@Lazarrus89 question for an electrician, is wiring in that manner (reverse polarity, right?) dangerous?
Gorgeous touch with the paint. Somehow it makes me like the tile even more. I think I might take that paint clear to the ceiling on that wall only. The whole room is coming together so beautifully.
You are so inspiring. I think the paint you used to finish the space by your hood would also be great under the tiles behind the stove. It will make it easier to clean and if you can see in the cracks beside your range once it's in, you will not see white walls. Hope that makes sense. I love how you tackle anything, so brave and accomplished. Love all that you do, always look forward to watching your next video. The Kitchen is so beautiful. You are such a breath of fresh air, bless you .
Watching Kinsley Prance into frame was freaking adorable and caught me off guard lol. More floor shots please 😄🥰
I seriously can't get other how BEAUTIFUL this kitchen is!!!!! You have made just perfect choices for colour, style and decor. Love it 😍
Thank you so much! Im so happy it’s coming together now I envisioned it 🥰🥰
I think adding the legs on the bottom of the kitchen cabinets adds such a beautiful design to the cabinets. You are so talented to just free hand draw out the leg design on to the wood. I can't wait to see your next video seeing the kitchen cabinets completed. Your kitchen is going to be beautiful.
Love how you break things down that can be daunting. I have some understanding of installing light fixtures but the way that you went over each step of installing that plug really made it feel like the easiest task in the world. I can see how others (including myself) are inspired by your work. Not just by WHAT you do but also HOW you do it :)
Cheers and a hello from Houston TX 💚
Don't forget to add "Finish adding shelves to interior of cabinets & sealing those interiors" to the list. You might consider sealing the unfinished cabinet exteriors around refrigerator & range, if you're not going to paint, for cleaning ease. Looking good!
Love the amazing progress! Great idea with painting that small space between the tile, window, and range hood. It really highlights the beautiful trim work! Have you considered taking that paint all the way up? 🤔 it would really ground the wall againt the fireplace wall and further highlight the range hood and cabinetry. Just a thought!
I’ve been watching for alittle under a year, Holy cow your yard is so big!! Excited to see how all the trees do!
Thank You for letting us go on this journey with you!!!!!!
Love the toekick! ❤You should paint the silver outletcover in the kitchen with the gray tile paint sample, just like you did in de diningroom
You are the ultimate perfectionist!!! And that’s what sets your work apart from most! I am cheering you on to get this project complete
Love the foot detail on the toe kick. Also, the painted finish next to the vent hood. Well done. I'm so excited to see it completed.
I don't know how many of your comments you get to but thank you so much for all your videos. I truly feel like one of your friends and your videos have brought me lots of comfort on the more lonely days. Keep doing what you are doing and know that you are making others happy.
Love the little feet! You might need to add finishing cabinet sides and back wall behind the stove, at least primer if not paint. You may not see them when stove is installed, but the inevitable cooking spills down the sides and smells will be easier to clean and not become permanent in untreated areas. ( Cleaning lady advice)
Totally love the kitchen! Your patience and hard work is admirable!
Wow...that's really great,Well 🤩 Congratulations 🎊 you just won a full boxed makeup kit and skincare products with an iPhone 12 Pro Max and a Mac book pro💻
I know you picked special outlet covers for over the tile, but now that you have a paint color matching the tile it might look nice to paint those!
Great job on the kitchen. I think the part where you mention which color of wire go on which screws was backwards. The white wire should go on the white/silver screws (larger opening). And the black goes on the brass/gold screws.
Yes. I was taught the phrase "Black and gold never gets old."
Yes I thought so too! I remember the song “Black and yellow”. It doesn’t make a huge difference, as long as both black are on one side and both white are on the other (if connecting to another outlet or switch)
Once again I am sitting with my mouth hanging open. Your obsession with the small stuff is an eye opener. Well done. You are an inspiration to us all.
I’m always so happy to see your video alerts!! Thank you so much for opening up your doors to us.
I’d be tempted to use that custom color in the back coffee area and make it dark and moody like your back entry hall. It’s so pretty! ( kind of a reverse of your kitchen)
Ooo that's a lovely idea!
Have you considered carrying the beadboard trim around the corner next to the fridge for those few inches?? I think it would finish that wall off beautifully.
I know I’m thinking ahead, but I think it’s so beautiful how your children & your children’s children get to watch how you BUILT a whole home that will be in their lives forever ❤
Need or want something.. you just do it. Coming along so beautifully. Can't believe this won't be your primary residence..a dream kitchen
I love the paint between the range hood and window. You could also us the remaining paint on the wall behind the range. Love your work. ❤
I think that would look perfect and protect her walls and cabinets.
You could paint under the kitchen tiles “the space for the oven” with the sample tile colour paint you got :)
Just knowing behind the oven isn’t “finished off” would get to me lol
Note the correct polarity has the white wire on the silver. Having them backwards can potentially damage some electronics.
Watching your video and thinking to myself "wow one day your kids going to be looking back to your videos and they'll be so proud of their mom, knowing that their childhood home has been created by her and their dad's hands". You must to be so so proud of yourself guys ❤️
I don’t ever want these episodes to be over ❤
The little feet on the cabinetry is such a small detail, but it makes a big impact! Glad you decided to go forward with that design idea. So excited for part 2 where we will hopefully see that beautiful oven installed!
Kinsley 100% thought the electrical box was one of her beloved caps.
You and I have different home styles, but I'm still obsessed with both of your homes and how you design them. They are gorgeous!
Need to have a kinsley in your computer generated intro. Love you. Love watching you make your house into a home.
The jumping between outlets is also called daisy chaining :) I'm inspired by how you jump in and tackle your projects, learning what you need to along the way.
It makes me so happy to see you finish all these little things! 😁
You have definitely built a beautiful house that will last for centuries. I’m glad you restored her.
It looks SO GOOD! One possible idea… the plug cover on your oven wall already matches well, but you could even prime and paint it that color match you got for beside the hood range! Congrats on your amazing space!
Whoops others have already said the same! Great minds think alike. Bravo Macenna! ❤
One thing I love about you is you don't stop until you design everything you create and into a high end design. you certainly could of stopped with the toe board but being you, you went all the way with the decorative side feet. Love your energy and design. you do it all. And you do it with perfection. Susan
the hot wire/black is on the right, on the brass screw. the white neutral goes on the silver screws. green is ground, not neutral. I don't think you wired that correctly, and tbh someone might follow your advice.......
Look at this amazing kitchen coming together! I just love seeing other women using power tools! You are POWERful!
Oh my gosh! Your house is stunning! I love your style and I am doing my DIY based on your style! Love to have you helping me!❤
Kinsley is very proud of her Mama as are your subscribers. Thank you MaCenna !❤
Yes!!! Love seeing you finish the details-- it's so hard to get there! Painting that little section around the hood was EVERYTHING! Thanks for the motivation to get to work on our own projects :)
When you were explaining the electrical my first thought was that you are going to be a wonderful mother. You have such a calm way about you when you teach things!
For the kitchen island extra space you could do a kitchen linen draw for fancy napkins, food storage for cans or spices or just a place to put your smaller vases.
Wow...that's really great,Well 🤩 Congratulations 🎊 you just won a full boxed makeup kit and skincare products with an iPhone 12 Pro Max and a Mac book pro💻
I discovered your channel right as we were starting a complete house renovation, including gutting our kitchen and starting over. I was planning to go with the whole "white and bright" asthetic and when I started watching your videos, I fell in love with your design choices and changed our plans. Now our kitchen has white walls but countertops with dark veins, moody cabinets (submarine gray by Behr) and a dark wood backsplash and I love how it turned out. Thank you for the inspo!
Ugh can’t stand to wait for next video! It’s looking SO perfect. Romeo will be excited for all the ✅ on your list when he returns. 😊
I can't believe how cute those little feet are! They just added sooo much to the design. Love it!
You look sooo good in blue !!
Hey MaCenna! Absolutely love your videos. I'm a residential architect based out of NYC, but I'm trying to pivot into furniture design and fabrication, and your story is really inspiring! Something we do for our cabinetry designs: For the kitchen feet, instead of building up multiple wood layers, you can install a block piece behind the foot that's the same width as the base of the foot. That way it'll be squared off at the base, and you can just paint it the same color as the rest of the kick. Looks good and easier for cleaning. I guess your design might make it a little difficult, but might be good info for the future. Again, love the channel :)
😃 PERFECTION 🤩 ✏️ GOIN THROUGH THAT LIST SO QUICKLY!!! I LOVE IT EVERYTHING LOOKS GORGEOUS 👍 👍 👍
I am absolutely in awe of your skills and talent. I just watched open-mouthed as you fitted that plug with such ease. You're an inspiration!
the birds singing in the background of your outdoor work gave me life 🐦✨
I have only now noticed how beautiful the dining room light is. Oh my word!
I don’t think the paint samples are made to last like regular paint. Might want to seal it since it is in the kitchen.
Yes! Good point! It should definitely be sealed to make it scrubbable, just as you did the range hood. Otherwise, you'll just wash it off.
So beautiful I love those feet and the way they look so amazing. Love how you finished the end of the island and with that plug that is great, you don't really notice it being that black color it really blends well. I also really love the look of your wood floors with that beautiful sela on it, you can see the wood grains and that is gorgeous. Thanks again for another wonderful video and I am really looking forward to you next video, this cottage is turning out just beautiful and you have been doing a lot of amazing work. I hope that you have a great day, sending love and hugs, bye! 🤗👍🖌❇✴💜💜
you could even paint the outlet cover with that dark green/gran/brown color! :)
I love all of the details so much. Not me thinking of buying a nice bottle of wine to celebrate the finishing of the dining room and kitchen
I love the little feet it adds to the feel of your Folk Victorian Cottage! I can’t wait to see how they look by the stove. I’m my own opinion I would paint all of the exposed surfaces even if they won’t really be seen to make sure they are protected from spills and messes.
Love the feet. There was one spot toward the end of the video when this huge wave of pride and beauty swelled up in my heart and my brain blurted out, “Oh MaCenna!” The house is becoming so beautiful and YOU DID THIS. Don’t know why but I am almost tearing up with pride. You go girl! 😊🎉
Have you sealed the cabinet sides that will be next to the stove? It will make it much easier to clean when you start cooking.
Ever since you were in Texas at your new house, I was dreaming of these videos of you doing all the finishing touches of this gorgeous kitchen.A true labor of love
Ok I like Matchy Matchy and I would paint the sliver of the cream wall that shows beside the window the same green/brown paint colour as the backsplash, at the same height as the backsplash so that the green/brown colour ends where the fridge corner begins. I love this kitchen. Well done.
I would paint the wall behind the oven with the same brown/green paint. It will help with clean up from stove drips.
I’m just in complete awe of your work and how talented you are!
I remember when you came up with the sketches for the kitchen and I was just wanting to see it and now we do! And it looks so good!
I recommend painting and sealing the entirety of the feet, they will come in contact with water with mopping or spills you want that wood completely sealed with primer and sealer!!!! Attention to detail includes practicality as well. Great progress interested to see you build those cabinet doors. You could build them as you go and wait to paint them when the weather is clear.
I got the impression that they are done and waiting for the right day next week,warm and dry,like she mentioned at the beginning.
This is genuinely the best project I have ever seen. And I am actually so glad I found it after you finished it, I have been absolutely BINGING these renovations!! My S/O and I are looking at an early 1900s home and the kitchen in it is pretty much stripped down to the bones. I really want to consider building it or at least working on the carcasses that are already there for starters! You have given me the upmost confidence even though I’ve never done something like this. Thank you for everything and you are absolutely amazing at everything you do ❤️
Wow! My dream kitchen. You have worked so hard and deserve all the goodness the world can offer!!
You should use the rest of tile matched paint sample to finish out/even out/ that area beneath the backsplash…behind the stove. So at least it’s even 🤷♂️
Your attention to detail is amazing 🤩
Loved your attention to detail in painting the small area near the hood. Do you think it would look nice to paint the narrow patch of the wall between the refrigerator and the window upto the backsplash height in the same dark colour?
I’m in awe watching you. You have soo much enthusiasm and style, you’re truly incredibly talented. We’ve just tiled a kitchen floor and moved units and it was so tiring as we’re in our 70s. It looks good but I’m glad it’s done. Well done, I just love everything you do. Xx 😘
I would have such a difficult time deciding where to live when you have two beautiful homes!
I am so excited to see the finished product, I have been here since the first day, I feel like it's our house at this point.
I so love that you showed how you do the outlet! And explained how it works. Thank you! Love your obsessing❤️
Great job. I’m loving the progress. Now that you have matching tile paint, I’d use it to camouflage the wall outlet in your backsplash. It would be less noticeable.
You did such a good job explaining the electrical outlet/how to go about it. The cabinet feet look awesome.👍
It’s looking stunning! Well done on all your hard work and thanks for inspiring all of us to go for it. I love the fact you went with your heart on the dark tile in the kitchen, it’s awesome along with those window casings. I love the colour of the cabinets. Can’t wait for the next video! Hello from Australia.
The feet look great. Your kitchen is a showstopper. Everything is beautiful. And you did so much of it yourself. Totally amazing and impressive. ❤
