I can't get this link to work! I wanted to check pricing on the mattresses.

[@jwright5886]

Hi, thank you for the code, but sadly it doesn't work, is there a replacement code maybe? Thank you !:)

[@m83148w]

Hey! As others have said, link isn't working

[@Julie-hd4zf]

Hi Lisa, the link doesn’t work.

[@thepioneerhomestead]

Your daughters dress is adorable and yours as well that you wear that’s black…so vintage!💗 I love how you’ve used your spaces to create unique useful areas that are non-traditional. May I ask where you purchased the boys quilts?

[@lisapoulsen5452]

Love this reminder to give attention to our homes. It’s isn’t about buying all the things…it’s about taking care of what you have and curating a home over time🥰

[@meastrau4772]

Wonderfully put, exactly 🙂

[@saraheeee]

Yes! It works like a charm when I have an itch to buy something.

[@thecarolinafarmhouse]

I love that you and your daughter love home decor and talk about it together! So sweet!

[@susannaCdonovan23]

I absolutely love your farmhouse. It's so cozy, early American, and reminds me of how my Mom decorated, and I do the same thing. Love vintage style Lamps, hardwood floors, old fashioned sinks, quilted bedspreads, vintage furniture, and potted greenery throughout the house. You mentioned some kind of disaster in your boys room. I probably would not think it a disaster, but there's a woman here on KZbin with the channel "DIY Wife", who actually does remodeling and woodworking herself, because they didn't have a lot of money, nor could they afford to remodel, so she decided to do it herself. She's strong as an ox but she doesn't look like it. It's amazing what she can do. She actually could give you advice about a troublesome spot, and help you correct it. She's extremely nice. Just thought I'd mention.

Lisa, Once you and Luke purchased the farmhouse, it suddenly became alive with each episodes. It took on a life and became a home with such beauty throughout all its seasons. It has been a joy to watch your channel. I never grow tired ! Your family is truly beautiful! Loved seeing your sister's wedding. Loved how your son got a pony! How you daughters share your interests and how they love the younger siblings ! Each child is truly special with their own birth stories with very special names. Am glad they are being homeschooled. Loved how you carry each child as you work within your home and how important family life is to you! There is true beauty in your home! Your husband works on the farm and loves the home as much as you do and has the same interest in the children and in God as you do! You put such love in all you have touched in the meals prepared and even in the guest house. Love the farm animals and I am grateful you share! The kitchen is often filled with the aroma of home-cooked meals. The counter often holds fresh eggs and the fresh milk. Meal preparation is a joy and so are the recipes. It is amazing how you just knew what to give the farmhouse. You definitely gave it all the love it had needed and then some! May God Bless you for your devotion to Him, Our Savior !

[@FlapjackR]

What a beautiful comment.

[@FarmhouseonBoone]

Thank you so much for the kind words and for following along on our journey.

[@pearlsngrit]

It doesn't get much better than bringing old furniture and an old home back to life. We are working hard on doing the same. We'll try seasonal decorating next, thanks for all of the great ideas!!

[@jendyson6729]

I've had a little lamp on my kitchen counters for years, it does add a cozy feel. They also look warm and pretty on a bathroom counter. I don't use any overhead lighting at all, just lamps. Coziness is important for mental health during these gloomy rainy winter days.

[@crystalschendel3770]

Your home is so relatable. It's easy to get caught up with the trends these days, but you're a reminder of what really matters. Thank you for sharing.

[@samijocasey]

Love that you bedshared with your babes. Makes nursing so much easier and i always felt so secure being able to smell and feel mine.

[@PurpleExplosions]

Lisa does such an amazing job of showing in every video the value of homemaking. It's inspiring to me as a fellow stay at home, homeschooling mom to see the joy and beauty of creating exactly the life you want for yourself and family.

[@nitahiltner3348]

You have a real treasure with your farmhouse, it is real, not one of these all-white everything fake ones. I love it and your garden and just ever everything. I wish I could start over and do it all like you.

[@vintagebeliever5023]

What a lovely home. I saw the small light in the kitchen on another KZbin video years ago so have always had one. It does add coziness. After dinner, it is the only light on in the kitchen. Thank you

[@shanimarais9695]

Your home has come along way Lisa. This is the most beautiful fairy book home now.

[@marywalker2896]

You can tell your house is a home. So beautiful so cozy . So full of love. I love it. Makes this grandmas heart happy.

[@FarmhouseonBoone]

Thank you so much!

[@wandaroach765]

For years I’ve had a small lamp in kitchen and a small lamp in the bathroom so cozy. This is my first time watching I love your home.

[@Barbara-pz8ky]

You have done an amazing job Lisa and I know that Luke is a great team player on all of your decorating adventures too. I’m sure there are times you have clutter but your kitchen is always so neat and tidy . Wow!

[@kimacker8594]

I have often thought sitting rooms are wasted space. How nice you were able to make these extra spaces bedrooms. You own a true and authentic farmhouse.

[@mrsa8966]

I’m almost 60 and my parents always had a small lamp in the kitchen, usually in the corner under the cupboard. It made the kitchen so cozy

[@petro3441]

I would put the stripe pattern horizontal. Dont ask me why but i think its gonna look better.

[@deannaworm3502]

Thank you for inviting me in. I love how very warm and welcoming your home is.

[@FarmhouseonBoone]

Welcome!!

[@janicegrenning2268]

I love the idea of changing up the curtains! I love the look of cafe curtains and the softness they bring in your sunny kitchen, but next time pleeez make the length even with the window sill, it looks like they aren't finished and look messy bumping into the things on your counter! It's fun that you and your daughter enjoy this decorating hobby together!

[@america_and_avigailfarm_ki5351]

I’m at watching this with my mom and dad and my one sister and brother and my dad said u and my mom add a million dollars to the value of any place you live. I just had to smile like crazy. My mom is really snuggling cozy with my dad 2.

[@MsRosaJo]

The striped curtains looked great when seen in just the sink area, but when seen in the totality of the entire kitchen I agree that it looks off. The overall impression of the kitchen is softer than the starker-looking stripes. Maybe a muted blue and white floral fabric would work.

[@patriciaraschdorf5514]

FUN COZY HOUSE FILLED WITH LOVE LAUGHTER AND KIDS LOVE YOUR FURNITURE CHOICES AND THE PAINTED FLOOR YOUR HOME IS NEAT TIDY AND LIVED IN

[@StephanieMT]

Those kids are gonna have wonderful memories when they are adults. That house is the house you wanna go home to.

[@judyderieux8484]

It's always so much fun to spend time with you and your family. Such a positive and healthy way you approach what you do. I come away with a great outlook for my own life. Thank-you❇️

[@runae7368]

I like the stripe best. it adds interest.

[@lynnloehr1566]

My grandmother always had a lamp in the kitchen on the counter, and I loved it!! I have always had a lamp in my kitchen and I love it so much.

[@jml238]

Just love watching everything you do. It's so calming and energizing at the same time! My life has always been thrifted, and "shopping" my home has always been a thing! Same 'ol stuff is completely new in another room! Bless you and your beautiful family!🥰

[@FaithyandOtis..Massachusetts]

I have a vintage hurricane lamp, single globe small one with flowers on it in my kitchen. It works beautiful. It looks gorgeous in my vintage home

[@susansmith493]

Yep. I've stated this before on your channel. Lighting. It's absolutely crucial to get lighting right. Lampshades: avoid blue tones ...they'll give off cold light. Opt for burlap or burlap toned for warm light. Either way ..lampshaded lights are better than glass globed lights ...might as well just hang a bulb from the ceiling. Why do you hang curtains so they're below the kitchen sill?

[@joanndesrochers7639]

This was so nice to watch. Very comforting and relaxing. It is soooo very nice to watch a loving family in their beautiful home. I am so happy to see marriages that stay together and that invest in the good rearing of their children. Very lovely indeed!!!!! God bless you all.

[@sheagang5]

For your new wardrobe, you could hang your tablecloths and runners.on hangers. This way, you are using that space & easily see these items.

[@paulawhite5157]

Loved watching this video. You're house is so lovely and the fact that it IS farmhouse is so refreshing. I'm so tired of the look of trying to make homes farmhouse when they surely are not. It's good you and your daughter share the same taste.

[@rebacarmack8335]

Older homes have so much character and coziness.

[@vintagegirl68]

A floral print would look nice for curtains. A lot of people used flour sacks to make curtains. Cheers!

[@lauriedonaway6523]

That lamp makes all the difference in your kitchen! I have done this for years. It adds soooo much coziness.

[@FarmhouseonBoone]

I totally agree!

[@marywest2896]

you find so many wonderful pieces of furniture!!!

[@cbenji2]

The tea towel curtains perhaps if you take and fold over a bit the hang on tabs it might be the blend to make all three of you live it

[@Youtube_user_nhvrxdhn]

I watched the whole video, because your home is so beautiful and your style of showing us your home while cleaning was meditative. I definitely liked your words to give a litte attention to our homes without having to buy new stuff. ❤️

[@stefanieaeiou]

Seeing the end scenes with the kids around the house after seeing you making this all brought a lil tear to my face 🥲 So comforting. Such a beautiful family 💌

[@larawilsonhayes3658]

Simply adore farmhouses and I loved the opportunity to see yours! Thanks for the tip to use rooms as your family needs vs what it was intended for. That’s really going to help us on our home search!

[@FarmhouseonBoone]

So glad!

[@Autumn1988]

I live in a small urban house - which I love and we’re happy here. We have a small garden and my husband has gotten into growing fruit and vegetables ❤ Trying to live some cabin-life in our cosy home here. I like to bake and you’ve reinvigorated my love of sourdough

[@FarmhouseonBoone]

Love it!!

[@queens6583]

I love seeing what you do with your home and how creative you are. I also love seeing you work with the animals you have and the daily chores of farm life. Your also a very intuitive cook and baker which is a talent I do not have. I'm also a big city woman who loves horses, goats and other animals, but will never live that lifestyle so I live vicariously through you. The home is perfect and obviously filled with love.

[@donnarakitzis2719]

Thank you for sharing this. I always love seeing how your house evolves constantly. It motivates me and gives me inspiration

[@charlenelindsay2019]

Dear Lisa, I thoroughly enjoyed the walk through your lovely home. But, what brought me the greatest joy, was at the end seeing the children,,, mine are all grown up 30's and 40's, 2 girls and 2 boys. Oh how I miss those days with them all over the house, just being children. Thank you for this precious memory. You are so right to keep your rooms and decor at a minimum. It gives you all so much more time to be a family. Hugs💞

[@FarmhouseonBoone]

You are so welcome!

[@rachellebrooke4614]

I love the real life vibe of this video!

[@keciadickson392]

I agree with Luke, I liked the curtains in the kitchen. It added a bit of hominess.

[@terryhutson4864]

OMG my son has a tape thing going on.. I just relented and gave him his very own tape dispenser!! I only asked him not to put it on dry wall. I gave him poster putty for putting stuff on the wall. Spoiler alert he has gone on to velcro and hot glue. He is our little handy man.

[@snz1991]

Love your minimal mindset. Would love to continue to hear more about how you achieve this with so many children.

[@JamieSantos]

Lisa, when I moved into an 1853 brick Victorian it was all carpet upstairs. I asked if there were hardwoods under the carpet to which the owner replied, "yes". When I moved in I commenced to ripping out 1500 sq ft of carpet and a layer of subflooring to only find destroyed floors. We patched them and then I bought gallons of off white porch paint and painted the entire upstairs. Sure, the smell was awful for about a week but I left the windows open to air out and they dried perfectly with no residual smell. Because it was porch paint it never chipped or peeled....BUT.....there was no one living upstairs but myself and my husband. We did have family visit with children many times and moved a lot of furniture around with no issues. I loved the look of those painted floors and would do it again in an old house with subpar flooring. Love your weekly vlogs and tour of your home!

[@FarmhouseonBoone]

Thank you.

[@susiewalker1254]

I added a lamp to my kitchen during Christmas and I love it. I turn off the main light and the little lamp just adds a glow to the kitchen.

[@janettablackwell8287]

Lisa, you are an awesome woman. The amount you accomplish is astounding.

[@FarmhouseonBoone]

Be patient...it really does take time!

[@america_and_avigailfarm_ki5351]

Perspective from a mom and dad, we want our kids to get a chance to love like us and you, so it’s a very positive thing that you are doing these videos.

[@sheilaurie6563]

I had to chuckle when you commented on the boys and tape. My youngest son, now 43 years old, went thru so much tape of every kind when he was the ages of your boys that I was convinced I should take stock in each company. I might be super rich by now. LOL! Thanks for sharing the different rooms in your home...everything looks amazing and so cozy!

[@annaschweitzer4599]

Have you thought about making your kitchen curtains sit on window sill?

[@ramonaearnest4709]

This is exactly what I was looking for! I love the cozy feeling of a home with lamps and quilts and rugs! I do have a lamp on my kitchen counter and in the bathroom. Comfy cozy!I love your videos you are such an inspiration! I also live in Missouri ❣️

[@lisalowe7679]

I’ve added lamps to my kitchen for years. Multiple little lamps. Love them

[@SarahHannah91]

I grew up in England in a 1750s renovated cottage and watching this video makes me miss it! Thanks so much for sharing. I love your approach to living.

[@FarmhouseonBoone]

You are so welcome!

[@DianaF74]

I have a 9 year old that LOVES tape. Gracious. It's always sticking to my feet or legs or back side. I want to stop it, but he loves to build and create and invent things that tape can hold together, so I keep quiet. lol. I love tidying up! It makes everything seem peaceful. Even new, like you said.

[@glenelle24]

Fabulous tour around your home, I'm guessing there's a new addition on the way. I've guessed right several times so trusting my track record 😀

[@virginiabrady3536]

I noticed that as well.

[@allisonc9645]

Wonderful! I’ve asked before and I’ll ask again - please show me your basement! I love old houses and hope to someday have one and want to badly to have a basement. I am sure it is unfinished and rough but if I know you (and I have been watching you a long time) you use it for all kinds of wonderful and interesting things it has been used for for many years by many other homemakers who have lived there.

[@brunobakes9056]

Lisa, I love your videos. I feel that they are inspiring and don't cause me anxiety that I have to do all the things and have everything brand new. Your comment about tape and your kids made me smile. I have two children and there was a time when the only tape in the house was duct tape. Haha. They loved tape and I would find it all over the house. I look forward to your videos. Please keep sharing.

[@gymcoach95]

A LIGHT SAGE GREEN WOULD LOOK PRETTY ON THE KITCHEN WINDOW

[@jessicabulloch5302]

I'm a momma to 8 and a new dog mom and I live in a 1900 Victorian and I also love the pocket doors on all the rooms , I like that I can make a room cozy and quiet and then open it all up and Victoria's are so large and spacious as well. Beautiful home you have made.

[@vickie9633]

My mother passed down to me t-towels from her grandmother! Some hand stitched beautifully! That sent me down the rabbit hole and I started collecting. My husband made and put a shelf with wooden rod over my l kitchen window and I display all my t-towels ! I often look at them and wonder about the women that made these beautiful towels! I also went down the rabbit hole with salt cellars !!

[@marge3157]

I have had 3 lamps in my kitchen for years. 🤗 I don't light candles anymore since I burned our house down 23 years ago.

[@shelbymarie9408]

My parents house that they still live in, the one I grew up in, was built in 1895, I loved it and still love it to this day, older homes have such a special place in my heart. The front entry window and front door window are queen Anne cottage style stained glass in their home.

[@hannahbentson9374]

I love this style of a home tour. So cozy and feels like we’re just walking through your home with a cup of coffee in hand. 💕

[@marniebryce8922]

Oh my goodness, you have to most lovely cozy home. I'm a quilter And just LOVE how your quilts look. I can see they are loved and used! The more you use them the softer they will get. ☺️

[@FarmhouseonBoone]

Thank you so much!

[@iwillsinganewsong]

Take a sip of tea or coffee ☕️ whenever “cozy” is mentioned-might need a whole pot 🫖 😽

[@carolcurtis4238]

Love your house mind's me of my old farm house. Baskets ,herbs hanging antique s old sturbide paint.

[@barbarahansen6284]

Yes, timely for me as well, it can be too easy to weary my flannel pants in chill of January. I am going to take your points and get back to classy dressing.

[@kathleenbolanos]

The faux fireplace was easily one of my favorite video of yalls. I still think about it! It was nice seeing how you've repurchased the room

[@FarmhouseonBoone]

Thanks so much!!

[@karenw8481]

Don't you just love that auto litter box, best invention ever!

[@judymcintire8061]

Love all the special little things you add to your beautiful home!So warm & cozy!🤗

[@FarmhouseonBoone]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@GinaKayLandis]

Nice to catch up on Farmhouse on Boone! I started a new job and my viewing of videos has been less due to time constraints. So happy to see how your family has increased not only the usefulness of the farmhouse, but the beauty as well. Here's to a lovely 2023! 🥰

[@micaelanoel9289]

Try softer stripes instead of bulky thick one! If you can find a thinner stripe I've noticed they give more of a older look

[@jenniferannfox2316]

I like to move some things around and like you said they can take on a different fresh perspective in a different location. On days I'm moving things around I tell my husband I'm "playing house" today. He thinks it's funny. Nesting and making our house a home is just so much fun!

[@romydi1513]

cloudy is so beautiful, definitely not nasty..

[@LegatoTrio]

Aw I love the cozy day shoot! Definitely brings a different vibe to life. Beautiful!

[@shellydehart8217]

Lisa, I love it when you share your home. It’s such a beautiful, warm n inviting home. Love all your antiques too. I’ve always kept I light in my kitchen. I believe I’ve done it since I was married which was 52 years I had with my husband my soulmate. They make such a difference. I love your new antique light you have hanging. It’s so sweet looking. Can’t believe your girls are growing up so fast that their teenagers. It shows I’ve been watching you for along time. ♥️😊👍👍🌟🌟🌟

[@honeyj8256]

Hi, you should look far a stained glass lamp for your kitchen.

[@joymorrison6614]

Good grief I'm all worn out from watching you! I need to come over and sleep on that guest house bed. Anytime is fine and just for a few hours will work. I love your videos and as much as you do it doesn't really wear me out. I find your channel so relaxing. Keep it up!

[@vickinoeske1154]

Warm and beautiful home, charming. I've had a "thing" for small table lamps for over 25 years and have them all over the house. A lot of them stay on all of the time. I've always had one in our kitchen.

[@donnahardin4651]

Lovely - I really like your green wallcoverings in a couple areas - the stairwell and the sitting space…not sure if it’s the same pattern, but ever so beautiful - especially in the midwest winters; green is so refreshing! At the end, your daughter in the kitchen looked like you!! What a beautiful home you are making for your family!

[@elizabethbetsyschneider1647]

I love the vintage look so this was a treat for me to see your house. Everything looks so beautiful. 😊😊😊

[@debbiemacy3840]

Love your cozy home. It’s beautiful. Those big rooms are wonderful. Nothing better than a home that has been previously filled with love being brought back to life.

[@dawnita8]

I love your old fashioned style! Farmhouses have the best character.

[@FarmhouseonBoone]

Yes! Thank you!

[@robinnieto2703]

Cozy, welcoming and warm……love your home Lisa!

[@sullak7]

Teenagers. You said teenagers. Where did the years go!? I cry!

[@chrissybackes1942]

You know! I love your farmhouse videos so much! I love your cooking OMG You make me want to learn everything you know and stay home and do just that! Unfortunately I don’t have the privilege to do that but, looking at your videos brings so much relaxation Don’t listen to negative comments or feel your have to explain your yourself or your children! You are doing an Amazing job and thank you for sharing your life, your family, your home cooking skills ❤❤❤❤

[@FarmhouseonBoone]

Thank you so much!!

[@angelaorzlowski3786]

I just subscribed. I absolutely loved watching this and what a beautiful charming and not overdone home. I to love old pieces and you have made them work beautifully. I also love the wallpaper on your staircase wall. I live in Melbourne, Australia and I get so much inspiration from channels like yours. I shall now watch more of your videos. 💕

[@kash-220]

Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us. I appreciated how you chose to share. It was you giving attention to your home and not showing in the perfect condition. I’m so over the perfectness in social media 😅 Again, you have a lovely home and thanks for sharing. You are living out Titus 2:3. May the Lord continue to bless and keep your family.

[@FarmhouseonBoone]

Thank you!

[@Stinson.Homestead]

First time commenting, but I have been following your channel for several months. Love it! Everything about your home is so comfortable, warm and inviting.

[@FarmhouseonBoone]

Thank you so much!!

[@KnittingMama0]

Your home is beautiful

[@Thebyrnecoop]

I made ticking stripe curtains to bring color and make it cozy in my kitchen and living room! It’s looks “ old” to me!

[@rebeccaorin328]

Having raised boys myself having a top sheet on the bed is a good idea for sure.

[@flowergirl9794]

I suggest you try a pale check curtain at your window in the kitchen maybe a pale green and white check would be really cute cozy and I think it would fit with your style house just my opinion it's a beautiful home

[@monicabloodworth2379]

I love the home life you share. You always bring a peaceful and inspiring way on creating a cozy home.
