    Kelsey, you did an AMAZING job creating a plain builder grade LV with loads of character. All your makeovers are awesome. You are so talented!

    Husband leaves for work, husband comes home, dang it I walke dinto the wrong house again, ohhh wait this is my house, Kelsey's at it again!!!😂🙏 Never giving up, never surrendering, Kelsey!! Keep on, keepin' on Sis, Dirty Jersey out!!

    I think this makeover really warmed the space up. I like it a lot.

  • @cyndij8312
    @cyndij8312 Před měsícem +5

    Changing the insert was definitely the right call. It's more traditional looking while the rectangular one was modern. The surround turned out very pretty. Impressed as always!

    • @KelseyRomitoDIY
      @KelseyRomitoDIY  Před měsícem +1

      Yes! I couldn’t put my finger on why it never looked right to me before. And that’s when I realized the insert needed to change.

  • @madzabinga8382
    @madzabinga8382 Před měsícem +3

    I have liked all the different looks you have created. This one is certainly the warmest and most cozy looking. You are so talented.

  • @lynnharrell9598

    Less farmhouse and more traditional. I like it a lot. Beautifully done.

    • @KelseyRomitoDIY
      @KelseyRomitoDIY  Před měsícem +1

      Yes! I really love the modern traditional design style.

  • @diannerempel8262
    @diannerempel8262 Před 29 dny

    Painting the fireplace surround the same color as the built-ins was definitely the right choice! Also changing the fireplace from rectangle to square made such a positive difference. I love the mantel you built, great job! Not fond of the brick color, but the brick look is great.

  • @kandigrammer8438

    • @KelseyRomitoDIY
      @KelseyRomitoDIY  Před měsícem

      Thank you! Your comment made me laugh because how many times am I going to make over a space? Until I get it exactly right.

  • @kristinecornell8649
    @kristinecornell8649 Před měsícem +1

    I love the new fireplace. I liked your first makeover because I liked the warmth of the wood mantle. I'm glad you went back to that look. The brick looks great! I recently did a chunky wood mantle that I slipped over my existing mantle. Then I did shiplap up top & stone down the sides. It turned out great. I owe your videos for giving me the desire to want to DIY (my hubby does not thank you though 🤣🤣)

  • @CandasNichole
    @CandasNichole Před 28 dny

    I’d like to know in the Q&A what your hubby thinks about the make overs and your amazing skills/talent! 🥰

  • @lindaroyal8161
    @lindaroyal8161 Před měsícem

    This is my favorite Fire Place out of all you've done. This one looks more real, the square shape and the brick make it more authentic looking. It looks really good. Does the fireplace give out any heat?
    Questions:
    Did you have a job outside the home before You Tube?
    Did you go to school for any design or woodworking knowledge or are you self taught?
    What kind of work does you husband do, if we may ask?
    Does he help with any of your projects or just let you do your thing?

    • @KelseyRomitoDIY
      @KelseyRomitoDIY  Před měsícem +1

      I think so too! Yes it gives out heat but I love that I can have the fireplace on without heat because… Texas 🤣
      Great questions. Thanks!

    Kelsey, This fireplace remodel turned out to be absolutely gorgeous. You were definitely right about changing out the firebox from rectangle to square, it looks so much better. Then painting the walls green was a great move but the mantle and brick took this fireplace from pretty to gorgeous. I love the color of the stain and also the color of the brick. 😊❤😊

  • @green5sing
    @green5sing Před měsícem +6

    Amazing job! I would love to know how your kids and husband react to your DIYs. Do you talk it over with your husband or is it more of a surprise? Is your husband handy as well? Do you do work on projects for family and friends? Do you always stick to a budget? What skill do you feel is your strength? Which skill has been your hardest to grasp? What skill have you learned since starting CZcams? I have been a fan since the very beginning! I’ve learned so much. I would really like more in depth tutorials on things. Like how do you put in an undermount sink? How did you figure out the recessing of the fireplace? Handy things like that. You have really empowered women to DIY with your videos!!! Thank you for always sharing your projects and skills!!! ❤

    • @KelseyRomitoDIY
      @KelseyRomitoDIY  Před měsícem +1

      Absolutely! The thin brick can be used on fireplaces, accent walls, backsplash, floors. And it’s so much easier than a ceramic or porcelain tile because the cuts have to be way less precise. If I were using it for a backsplash, I would make sure to seal the grout very well so I could clean it easily.
