So update on the Venetian Plaster i saw at the hardware store ... i think it can only be tinted a few colors (none of which i like) so that option is out lol! I hope you guys enjoy todays vlog!
Why couldn’t you find a paint you like, then mix up a batch of your plaster using the thinned paint as your liquid?
Personally I don't think that or a lime wash is the right look for you farmhouse. With all the bead board and unique features you already have it just seems too much. Just my opinion.
Girl go get some cabinet glazing it’s like a gel glaze and you can wipe it on and do as much or little coloring as you like but it will sink into all the knooks and crannies of the plaster.
I was going to say! The tints are very limited. I used that venetian plaster on my fire place and love it. It's very shiny :D
Oh...Very nice vlog. You maybe have to rethink the Venetian plaster then. Love Kinsley! Hi to your sweet Mom!
How does you mom always have her hair so perfectly done and voluminous everyday? My goodness! I would love that volume and staying power
I just adore your mom! She's precious! Love your time together! I'm 63 and lost my mom 2 years ago. I'll miss her till we meet in heaven!
I'm 63 and lost my mom almost 6 years ago. I miss her so very much!
The fact the MaCenna is just a full-on carpenter and designer now gives me so much joy and inspiration. Got my tool kit out yestersay and I'm making plans to try making my own closet built-in because you, girl! You're so cool.
You've got this!
She’s seriously making me believe I can build stuff too lol 😅
I also like someone’s idea of doing the shelves and the lower cabinets on the bookcases to be the same as the stain on the widow boxes.
I second this motion!!
Your mum trying to get in on the haul action when waiting for you, so sweet!! Love her, love you, and Kinsley pup too!
I busted out laughing lmao
Hahhaaa me too😂❤
MaCenna to Kinsley: I'll be back, very very fast!
As soon as she's out the door: "We're going to eat, we're going to thrift-shop, we're going to pickup paint, we're going to the hardware store ~ we got lots to do!"
🤣🤣🤣
hahahahahahahah
I laughed at that too!! 😂😂😂😂
I felt so worried :( can't imagine my dog being that sick all night and then leaving them home alone for hours
@@amara560 I'm 1000% sure she was completely fine or McKenna would never have left her! Plus for all we know Romeo could of been on his way home so she wasn't going to be alone long. That women loves her lil fur baby to the ends of the earth and is such a great mommy but I totally understand your point.
I tell my dogs the same thing. 😅
I went through the same dilemma when I was looking for pine shelf material in 12" wide...I'm not sure what lengths you need, but I ended up buying pine stair treads. They go up to 48" wide (I believe) and it was WAY cheaper and worked out great for me! Sometimes you have to think outside the box! Good luck!
This is so smart! I hope she sees this!
Those cuts between you picking up paint and your mom giving us a mini haul was adorable!!
Enjoy your moments together with your mother
I'd try a much lighter grey for the mantle and then antique it to make that beautiful detail stand out. You could use a dark wax. By using a lighter grey on fireplace it will really become the focal point. If you paint same dark grey as bookcases it will blend in and be too much of the same.
If you want to go bold, paint the mantle in pashmina and antique it with dark wax. You could dilute pashmina and use it as a wash on plaster, then highlight (dry brush) the plaster with wall color paint. I'd do the same to the plaster above oven vent. It will balance the two rooms since you can clearly see each room end to end. 😊👍
Also, you don't need to paint mantle exterior with high heat paint. Those sealed fireplaces will not catch your mantle on fire.😊
I too was going to suggest pashmina and antique-ing it with wax. Great minds think alike.
Just seeing the sneak peeks of the living room in the first 30 seconds has me soooooo excited !!!!
eeeeek!!! me too!
@@xomacennavlogs I'm LOVING that millstone gray color!
You could use joint compound. I use it for my stencil design on walls .
Not at all messy. Already mixed. Try it.
Glad to see Kinsley back to her nosy cuteness at the end of the video. ❤️
Your mom is the sweetest thing ever 😂❤️💋 i see where your beauty and sense of humour coming from
Your momma is funny, showing us what she bought.😁
That might have been my favorite part 😂❤️
I laughed so hard. I just love her too
That was very cute! She is warming up to us!
The corners in the cushions can be made quite easily. Simply "dent" the corners from the inside with a wooden stick or a brush handle. This is very quick and effective.
I love you but I simply adore your momma!!! I always hope to see her in your vids! ❤
I’m due in a few days with my first baby girl and I really hope I get to have a relationship with her like you and your mom when she’s all grown up ❤
Much love and happiness to you and your new baby girl, Sarah! God bless you both.
So glad you live close to your mom. Its so nice to see the special bond you have. She is so supportive and cute to see your personality in her. And yes....keep making her pillows or anything she needs. You both deserve it. Blessings Blessings.
Kinsley needs a little puppy friend to play with in the house while you're out. She is such a doll.
Kingsley is a part of a one dog family. I can't see her sharing.
Kingsley’s a girl? Lol
I love watching you and your mom together, The way you banter back and forth, It reminds me of my mom and me. We use to enjoy going thrifting, shopping, crafting, cooking, and just spending time together. She past away 10 yrs ago, but watching you two together makes me remember all the fun and special times we spent together. It makes my heart happy.
I always love when your mama and Romeo are in the vlogs too 😊 and of course, Kinsley 🐕
25:10 your corners will also be sharper if you clip the seam allowance on the diagonal so it doesn't bunch up against itself when you flip it right side out.
Hello MaCenna, just wanted to let you know how soothing your vlogs are. I like writing. And i play you at the background in low volume. I later rewatch them when going to sleep ❤
10/10 recommend a biscuit jointer. Makita has a great one that I wanted for years and finally got this year. It will allow you to join narrower boards together and line it up for a smoother look and adds extra strength. Would also help with other woodworking projects for kind of a hidden joinery. Plus, it’s easier to use then a doweling jig in my personal experience.
Love everything you’re doing!! Excited to see the fireplace and bookshelves in the future!! 💕💕
You two get so excited when you get together 💕 I'm smiling seeing you guys enjoying each other.
It was good seeing your mom again, been missing her! She's such A sweetheart! I get more excited every time you look at or buy anything Christmas..I know your home is going to be so beautifully decorated!!!
Love the idea of using the old bricks for the new fireplace. Personally I would have painted the beedboard and cabinets (the sides) of the fireplace the colour Deep river from Benjamin moore or a even darker green. The livingroom gets much more light and can handle a dark colour with depth. And the colour is just amazing!
This deep blue colour of your sweater looks so good on you!!
FYI Dog Food Recall! I am not sure what dog food you and your mom feed your fur babies but Fresh Pet has a RECALL of their food. Any time your dog becomes ill without an explanation always check to see if their food has been recalled.
So thankful Kinsley and your mom's dogs are okay. This past Tuesday I lost my beloved Yorkie Dolly of 15 years. We only feed her chicken, brown rice, Peas and apples. I am so thankful for the 15 years that she was in our lives. So so missed !
I simply can't wait to see your Christmas decor, after everything is finished. I look forward to every video you make at the cottage, and your moody vibe has inspired me to paint my own beadboard in SW peppercorn, and am going to slowly back away from the farmhouse white that is throughout my home, so thank you for the inspo
Love seeing your mother!
I tip for getting your corners out of a pillow case is to use a chop stick 😊
Yeah, easier to push from inside.
Oh poor Kingsley and pup cousins. Hope they feel better. You know you and your mom are so cute, it's nice to see you have a great relationship.
There is nothing you can't do!! You have inspired me so much this year to tackle my home projects without fear. So grateful for you and your spirit
awww thank you sooo much! that makes me so happy!
You're so blessed to have your mom, MaCenna!
A DIY cat house should be on the content agenda for the outdoor neighborhood cats. I would melt. Love getting a new MaCenna video!
There are loads of sheds in MaCennas garden so plenty of places for stray cats to shelter.
@@jmk1962 I’m talking about for aesthetic purposes where she can chill and watch the sweet kitties from her house somewhere. I’m a cat lover…I love seeing the occasional kitty in the vlogs. Little pieces of gold. 😉 But I love dogs too. So Kinsley is a wonderful side-kick / main character too!
Velvet ribbon is most usually found in the best selection in a Fabric store.
I love a Christmas tin. I think some items just need a plinth to shine amongst the rest and a decorative box is perfect. Plus when storing glass ornaments they are the best. Always thrift the boxes ❤️
Y’all are hilarious. I love y’all’s relationship.
Treasure the times with your mom. I miss having those days since my my mom passed. Love the cottage vibe. Christmas is going to be phenomenal!
I love the ornaments your mother chose picked up,the pearl looking ones
I love that you hang out with your mom. I’ve always hung out with my mom and sometimes I feel judged for it but at the end of the day she is my best friend. Love my momma ❤
Water down a paint color you like and brush or sponge it on to your liking...you get the color you want and its cheaper. You and your mom are so cute together 💞
Loved the dry flowers . I hope Kinsley has recovered, she’s such a little star 🌟. Lovely to see you and your mum spending time together.
Luv u xx 😘
My Mum was a dressmaker n she would push her closed scissors up into the inside corners of a cushion to push out the corners to a point. Try it!
I use my swing tweezers or string Turner to poke the corner of the sewing project and push it out from the inside . It always makes the pillow look more finished if you turn it right side out and sew around the edge again about 1/8 in from the edge.
The channel Woodbrew recently built a floating built in tv stand/bookcase and he used some incredible looking wood, forgot what type but I do remember it being expensive! However, he shows how he built it but also the plans he created. I know in your case it’s not for the tv but floating if that’s the direction you go with
His attention to detail and things being so streamline, practical and stylish is what makes both of your channels so inspiring to watch!
Please take your mom to Disneyland! I think she would have a blast and you gals would be hilarious! 😍
My mom is my bestie too😊
Don't know what I'll do without her☹💕
I believe high heat paint has to get very hot in order to cure properly. So if your surround doesn't get to the correct temperature maybe don't paint it with high heat. Learned that when I was painting my fireplace insert!
Miss your mom so much and your guys funniness!! ❤😂 loved this episode!!
That green 😍 exact colour I've been painting with this weekend
A video with MaCenna, Kinsley, and MaCenna’s Mom. PERFECT. So glad Kinsley is feeling better! 🥰❤️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Wonderful mother-daughter relationship.❤️
I looooooove your mom
Try getting some 100% pumpkin puree and giving Kinsley a spoon full mixed in with her food. I learned that trick from a lady that works in animal rescue & have used it on my dogs anytime they're having tummy issues. Pumpkin has probiotics and fiber so it's great for them anyway. Make sure it's 100% pumpkin 🎃 and not pumpkin pie filling though, very important! I just put the extra in a Tupperware in the fridge and mix it into their food until it's all gone. This time of year is great to stock up on it too, I literally have like 10 huge cans in my pantry at all times bc it's a life saver! You can also mix it with plain Greek yogurt and freeze in ice cube trays for a frozen treat if she likes that better. I hope this helps either now or in the future!
So glad Kinsley is ok! Love your videos so much and your mom is such a cutie...every time I see her I can't not stare at her gorgeous hair, I have serious envy of your mother's hair🤭🤣 Absolutely beautiful.
Omg I love ur mom and her cute ornament haul
I love your mom! I can’t wait for the living room to be completed. I’m excited to see all the beautiful Christmas decorations placed around. I wait until after Thanksgiving to decorate my home. With you decorating early I can get excited seeing your home come to life for Christmas. I’ll enjoy your home and get ideas to use with my decorations. 🎄🎄🎄🦌❄️☃️
My weekend is complete now that I’ve seen the new paint on the on the walls in the living room. Love to watch you and your mom go thrift in together. U2 are so stinking cute.❤
Oh McKenna! I get so excited when I see a new video and then you can't find the lumber that you want...and dissappointment!! I know you must feel it too! But still love your videos with mom and Kinsley!! Thank you!!
You could always use a sealer on the knots so they don't show through the paint! They work really well.
Love seeing your mama back. You can see the love in her eyes for you. Be well.
I love how you and your mom love each other. Xo
Use a dowel or knitting needle from the inside to push out the corners. Digging at the fabric with a pin of any kind could result in snags.
I always used the rubber tip side of a pencil into the unclosed side of the pillowcase to get the 4 points to stick out. It’s so much easier to do.
MaCenna your home is gorgeous . I can’t wait to see it decorated for Christmas . 🏡🎄☃️🤶🏻🎅🏻🦌 Your Mum is so precious . I lost my precious Mum in Nov 2018 and I miss her so so bad . We were just like you and your Mum . Estate sales ,auctions,yearly fall festival events , yard sales . Oh we always doing some DIY . I’ve built my home. I’ve bought and gutted and charged the whole house . And I’ve bought new . It’s all so much fun because your learning . Anyway I shhh I could go on and on but I know your busy . God bless you and your family and friends . Your hunny needs to put a ring on that finger soon . Your both keepers ❤️🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻🐾❤️🙏🏻
Such respectful deference to your Mum. What an artist.
That little floral tin at the store could have been such a cute tissue holder!!
I don’t know how wide your shelves are, but would pre-made stair treads work. They’re generally beveled on the front.
If you still can't find the wood you need for the shelves, you can always just use the same cabinet grade (or a nicer grade) of 3/4" plywood and use that iron-on edging. And I also like that idea of the rich wood color for the cabinets and Shelves, though it definitely could give a busy look with the gray beadboard AND the plaster wall AND the decorative mantel AND the brick hearth.
I love love love how much fun you and your mom have together. Everything is coming together so well. You have a home that is so uniquely you! 🤩🤩🤩🤩
You make me miss my mom. But now I’m a grown up girl mom and she is like you too, so in a way you remind me of my daughter. Can’t wait to see what you did with the shelves. I think I saw in Lowe’s pre cut shelves that were 12 inches wide and different lengths. I thought of them as an option if I needed to and couldn’t find what I wanted.
I enjoy so much when you and your mom are in your videos.
So fun to see you and your beautiful Mom interacting. Your home is coming along and it will be fun to see the finished fireplace wall, although no rush ; I know it’s a lot of work. 🥰
Kingsley is very involved with what you purchase for the house, it's so cute. I'm normally not a fan of faux flowers but with the beige vase it looks really prettyl Thank you for sharing all your talent and wisdome.
So random but your skin and makeup always looks so beautiful and natural! Maybe do a get ready video sometimes? I think that would be so fun to have a completely different type of video! You always make everything looks so effortless and ofc your vibe and taste in everything has been so nice! Love watching everything come together.
"I was right the whole time I just didn't know it." You're mom kills me 🤣
The cats are there because they know who is going to love them and feed them. This happens to me a lot! Please check with your local humane society to see if they have a feral neutering program. That way they don't continue to have babies that will also love your house! 🐱
YOUR MOM 😍 she is just so cute
My grandmother used something like an orange stick or chopsticks to push the corners out from the inside out ❤
Yassssssssss Sunday is McCenna for me, my day is complete. The sneak peak of the living room is gorgeous ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻. I love it when you are with your Mom makes me smile.😂
thank youuuuuuuu
Always such a Joy to see what you're up to!! Didn't get around to watching until Today, worth the wait 🌟
I love the grey green around the chimney breast - it shows off the texture of the beadboard so nicely.
I love Kinsley. You are so very talented. Your relationship with your mom reminds me of the one I had with mine. Miss her so. Oh … your mother looked so pretty. ♥️
Hey mom! I love you two together. Reminds me of me and my daughter. I laugh so hard at your driving, thrift store, shopping antics. 😂 I can’t wait to see your tree with all the decoupaged ornaments. That is my style also. ❤
Love your mom on your channel ❤️
I love to see you and your mom together. You two are like the dynamic dual 😂… LOVE IT!!!
I love your mom!!
You’re from southern Louisana!! Me too! I knew I was drawn to you for a reason!
Oh my goodness, I just live for Sundays, Tuesdays and Thursdays. Love seeing and hearing all that's new. Love seeing you in Texas. Love the color on the beadboard! Oh, and that sweet little hydrangea arrangement in the bathroom! Perfection!
I agree!
I am so,surprised to see the bead boards painted! All this time I couldn't wait for that to happen and I had no idea I would miss that random patterning there. It makes me want to suggest a muted patchwork pattern of some sort there but I need to wait for the shelves first. They're gonna change everything again. It's coming along Girly!
I agree! The colours were so fun
You and your mom together is Fabulous. Very talented family.
Helpful tip to find the velvet ribbon... because it's very trendy right now.... Hobby Lobby carries it both in the holiday section -- bigger rolls obviously-- and the fabric section (which is more "everyday craft" colors) but a bit smaller roll size. Can still save some change either way, 50% off Christmas or 40% fabrics.
We call them poin-set-as in the uk . Here we use a granite slab or some other stone around the fire before the surround is fitted, then the surround can be painted in any paint.
I love how you took the box of ornaments over to your mom and asked, “Do we like these?” Too funny!❤️
What a fun vlog!! You and your mom in the car was such a relatable moment😂😂🥰
Wow, you are STUNNING in navy!
