2024 HOUSE PROJECTS :: Bathroom Refresh, New Light Fixtures, DIY Storage Solution + Furniture Flip

Hey guys!! Today we're working on some New House Projects ... mainly in our bathroom! So we are changing out our old light fixtures with some new ones to help make the bathroom feel more modern. I'm also painting my existing vanity stool to help tie it in with the bathroom vanity that we painted several months ago. I'm also adding in a DIY storage shelf in the toilet room, since our bathroom doesn't have a linen closet, and finally I'm refinishing a thrifted furniture piece to be more my style... but I'll need your thoughts on it, because I'm just not sure on this one! I'm so excited to be focusing on continuing to make our house the cozy home we want to live in, and doing it ourselves feels so good because we can customize it and save lots of money by not hiring the work out! I hope you feel inspired as you spend the day with us & be sure to subscribe if you're not already!

2024 HOUSE PROJECTS :: Bathroom Refresh, New Light Fixtures, DIY Storage Solution + Furniture Flip | This Crazy Life

[@ThisCrazyLife]

*Okayyyyy… let me know what you think about the little table furniture flip!? It’s kind of grown on me, but still unsure 🫤 So any ideas would be appreciated!! Also… we are beginning to work on our bedroom makeover today! So any final thoughts… leave them below! Love yall!* *♡amanda*

[@sadiepalmer1888]

It’s going to look great!

[@lindacallis9941]

I think you painted the top more like the color of the dark lines it would have brought out the design more. My eyes continue to focus on the lighter color

[@susanm8957]

Hi from Florida😊 Just frame out your mirror by making a frame out of mounding, just remember to paint the underside of the frame because it will be reflected in the mirror. I wonder if you could have the Beyound Paint tinted if you just buy the white? Most places will tint for free, just a thought😊

[@3sisrers900]

I Love the table you got a remember you gonna put stuff on top of it anyway so you won’t even hardly notice it

[@kellieroth1710]

OK, so I got the paint, but it's so thick! Wanting to do my front door black. Any tips?😢😮❤

[@kestraavalon]

Amanda, remember you have that dresser in your garage that you have to “repurpose” - you said by March 30-31st to do it. You’re welcome. 🖖🏽

[@kittykooky]

That gorgeous Art Deco one ❤

[@ThisCrazyLife]

Haha yesss! Thanks for the reminder!!

[@ellencutspaper571]

😆 I was just thinking about that dresser!

[@aliciajordan6586]

The table top looks good. Just apply a wood sealer or topcoat.

[@vivianzuniga8814]

Pretty!

[@joannwillis8035]

If you paint a circle around your paint line that somewhat matches the detail in the middle, it might look really nice.

[@ThisCrazyLife]

Thanks!!

[@kerstipalm7582]

Thought the same thing.

[@msmichele04]

Exactly what I was thinking, too!

[@debbieduggan6796]

I was thinking the same thing. I was also thinking that painting the lower shelf the same color as the design would make it all look intentional. Someone else also suggested varnishing the design,and I agree. Everything looks really nice. You and Kyle work so well together, and I love your sense of style. ❤

[@shirleythomason9894]

I do not usually make comments but for some reason feel compelled today. During Covid , my grandson taught me how to use You Tube. What a blessing it has been! I stumbled upon the cleaning genre and began watching your channel. I am 76 years old and watching you clean and organize a house was so refreshing. I didn't expect younger girls to really be into this To my friends I call all of you my you tube girls. I have purchased so many of the products(ecloths and polishers, shark cordless vacuums, all kinds of organizers, etc) you use and they have made my cleaning chores so much easier! Thank you so much for giving such well founded advice and helpful hints.

[@ThisCrazyLife]

Hey Shirley!! Well I’m so happy you left a comment today! Reading it totally brightened my evening!! I’m so happy you found my channel during that time! And that you have enjoyed my recommendations lol! You’re so incredibly sweet!!

[@carollundergan837]

Amanda, I would just frame the big mirror over your sink/vanity. Put some really nice moulding around it and paint it, and it will look custom and really nice. Maybe even put a middle moulding down the mirror (equidistant between the 2 light fixtures) to make it feel like 2 different mirrors. You can even do some kind of decorative arched moulding to make it look really custom. :)

[@charlene4439]

Wow have you been reading my mind cause I was thinking it and about to comment till I saw Use your comment 😂😂

[@fauxfinishmama]

I agree. Moulding would really work. They are nice mirrors. I like your idea of making the mirror look like it is 2.

[@mariagrishina4879]

Just suggested the same without seeing this comment!

[@ThisCrazyLife]

Oh that’s such a neat idea to add something a bit extra even… framing the mirror is an option for sure!

[@kristinmarshall1500]

I like this idea!!

[@janahefner5383]

I like the table top. One idea is find a paint color that matches the diamond shape in the middle and paint an outline around the circle where the bowl was.

[@dinarubin4828]

That’s exactly what I was going to suggest. I like it too.

[@ritajackson4183]

I would keep the table as is. The design is beautiful.

[@maggiehermanson6298]

Just frame in your existing mirrors. You can get some cool trim and glue it. Our builder did that for one of our houses and it looks like you bought a huge mirror.

[@ThisCrazyLife]

We thought about that… but the mirrors feel so overpowering in the space - and also, they’re pulling away from the wall in so many spots… so we were leaning away from that - but definitely a wonderful idea!

[@aprils.360]

What about a smaller version of a framed rectangle mirror? We rent and have a huge mirror that takes up the whole wall where the sink is 🙄 Never could understand why builders do that.

[@rdbtrim]

When using molding on a mirror, it’s best to paint the back of it black before you glue it down. Otherwise, you would likely see a small amount of raw wood in the reflection.

[@ThisCrazyLife]

@@rdbtrimyesss! Such a good reminder!

[@vickiemullen660]

For the table, you might consider putting the bowl back on it, use a brown color like the inset design, and trace/paint a trim around the bowl the width of the inset design, using the bowl as a guide. That way you have a nice trim around the circle that will match the inset.

[@kristinmarshall1500]

I like the table. I think it gives it character having that wood centerpiece. I think you should live with it for a few weeks and see if it grows on you or if you just truly don’t like it.

[@ConservativeVeteran]

Love the black stool - looks so elegant! On the little table that you spray painted. I think if you draw a circle the same color as the 'star' around the circle then it will blend. Also maybe a circle in that same color around the outer rim of the table.

[@gailfenander223]

I can't imagine just from those small peeks of red paint, what that room must've looked like. I know it's a large room, but WOW!!!! You've both done a great job choosing calm color. 😊

[@ThisCrazyLife]

Haha right?! It’s not a bad color… but so bold and to have so much of it would feel very intense!!

[@pennyfinkenstadt1288]

I would do one of two things with your table. 1. Paint a thin line in brown around the circle to emphasize it or 2. Lay tape over the “inlay” design cutting carefully and paint everything else and pull the tape to leave the faux inlay in.

[@susanrikimaru6630]

Okay, that editing of adding the links to other videos while talking about the paint - chef’s kiss 😘

[@ThisCrazyLife]

Haha happy you enjoyed it 🤗😎😘

[@triciaperiard2145]

What about just having one round mirror above your sink and add floating shelves on the other side? That way, it'll be less noticeable, and you can put some cute boho decor on them? Just a thought. Love all your ideas and style!

[@spookycute81]

I love the stool now that it's painted black! It matches the rest of your colours better now. I agree with the other suggestions about the little table. Making another circle in the same colour as the design in the centre, will tie it together, because it looks like something is missing the way it is now :)

[@elianamarino8616]

Hey Amanda! Great video. For your bathroom, I would do matching mirrors above the sinks and then I would do a cute tabletop mirror on the vanity area.

[@diva63]

Love that shelf over the door idea! We have a tiny 1957 “master bath” with no storage - can’t wait to get hubby up there to measure and see if we can do something like this too. Looks awesome!

[@marisa_425]

I think the table turned out great. The design on the top actually matches the little stool next to it.

[@LoveforDogs455]

I would build a frame around your existing mirrors. Everything looks great!!

[@mirianr.3567]

I love the way the vanity bench turned out!! And the shelf in the bathroom is a smart storage solution. I know you're starting on your bedroom already and the idea of an accent wall with wood behind your bed will look great. Wallpaper is back and it might be a cool touch on the wall that Emma's bed is on or in another spot to soften up your room.

[@mirianr.3567]

I can't wait to see the mirrors in the bathroom - that's one I've been curious to see how you approached. And your little table . . . While I like the inset design because it's interesting, I think the raw wood against the paint makes it look like it's not finished. I'd paint the top or even do a mosaic tile design on the top to give it more personality.

[@annakout]

I love beyond paint, I’ve used it in several spaces of my home and it’s held up so well! Im always recommending it to all of my family and friends.

[@kimghoss6021]

Hello Amanda,love the table it’s unique,if you paint the top it’ll be just another table.You two work so well together ❤❤

[@sabrinahemingway2970]

Loved your refreshes….The table, it was really cool the way it was before sanding and painting. The spray paint is what killed it. The top of the table with the design element was what made it look original, interesting and cool.

[@jodybelcher6058]

The stool is very pretty with the black paint on it and the lights look amazing I love watching you do your diy because I love learning new things

[@KendraTheHappyWifeLife]

I think your house projects videos are some of my FAVORITES!!! 👏🏽👏🏽

[@ThisCrazyLife]

Ahh!! I love them too! These and the makeovers are so fun!!

[@deborah3055]

I think the table ,the shelf, lights and the bench came out awesome great job 👍

[@sharleneharper]

I think the stool turned out great. I like the suggestion that someone made about using some nice trim around your mirrors to make your own custom frame.😊 No! the table looks good Amanda .

[@beckyrolfson826]

I like the detail on the table. You might want to do some detail about 1 inch away from the center design in the painted area, the same color and width to tie it together a bit. Or in black or gold. You never cease to amaze me with your talents and abilities!!! You are great!

[@ThisCrazyLife]

Omgsh thanks Becky!! That means a lot!!

[@anneaton921]

Personally I think the table looks really cool!! You are correct about using 3 coats of the Beyond Paint. I did 3 coats of the sage color on my kitchen island & it looks fantastic!! When we had one large mirror in our master bath we painted some decorative trim & put in on the mirror with liquid nails. It looked great!! Just an idea!! Love all your videos!!🥰

[@vickilewis9029]

Amanda I love the table. The design on the top makes the table. If you do decide to paint it make sure you can put the design on it. Take a picture first. Loved watching you two working together as always. At least no hiccups today. I know you want to change the mirrors out but honestly I like the ones that are there. You get a full view when you do your makeup and dress up. You can admire yourself with those full mirrors. I know I would since I am still in a camper. I only see my face when I get ready to go anywhere. Enjoyed video and looking forward to the next project. Take care.😊

[@oct1863]

I also have several areas in my home that are asymmetrical and sometimes it makes me crazy..lol I can't believe the bathroom was that dark red color! I'm so excited to see how you update your bedroom furniture to go with your current style ❤

[@marypospiech4918]

I would live with the sweet table for a little bit. Can’t wait to see what the mirrors look like. Wait, you’re finally doing your bedroom? Like for yourselves? Yay!🥰🌵

[@ThisCrazyLife]

Haha finally!! 🎉

[@CurlyChick82]

Love watching all the DIY ! The stool with the black paint looks amazing!

[@Stephanie_Sullivan]

Great video, Amanda! When we moved into our home 19 years ago most of the rooms were painted baby blue and Pepto Bismol pink. I swear it looked like someone threw up a baby shower in our whole house. 😂 It took us forever to get the rooms painted, but they look SO much better now.

[@joycedollard6262]

Amanda I think the table is cool as well, I think you just need to put a top finish on it, maybe semi gloss finish. It's different, it is cool. You can always paint later if it don't grow on you. Love your house projects!! ❤ from Kansas City

[@ThisCrazyLife]

Thank you, Joyce!

[@RebeccaWife1Mom4]

Agree. That's what I was going to comment.

[@TaniaCowling]

I'm not really good at decor so this is why I love your DIY videos. What a cool idea with the shelf above the door. Turned out really nice. Looking forward to the upcoming bedroom renovations.

[@lovestosingalot55bodin7]

BTW, I liked the idea of a shelf over the bathroom door to put toilet paper rolls or whatever. I even showed my husband, what you did.

[@ellenstrode5477]

Amanda, I’d paint the entire top on the table and if you like the design, use your circuit and make a stencil. Bathroom looks great so far! Maybe frame the mirror that are on the wall now. We had the same problem in our bath too. Two mirrors didn’t look right, so we had frames made and a small cabinet that went up the wall in the corner on my vanity to balance the offset light fixture problem. Idea that might be an option for you. It was a win win for me. I got a little storage and helped balanced the light fixture as maybe they were meant to be.

[@3sisrers900]

I think the table looks great. You got a remember you going to put stuff on top of it so you won’t even hardly notice it anyway.

[@kristinmarshall1500]

I love the licorice color on that wood stool! I usually don’t like painting over wood either! Due to natural beauty but it fits the aesthetic so much better with that licorice color! ❤ I love seeing you and Kyle work together!

[@MissGammons]

My husband is so hands on and attended a trade school during his high school, which helped so much and of course trial and errors. I’ve learned so much from him but also from you and Kyle. We are still in the process of building a barndominium and we want to do majority of the work ourselves. My husband’s schedule has been chaotic and we just had our 3rd baby which has slowed things down. He went ahead and hired framers to finish framing and Sheetrock/tape/mud. The cost $$$ we had to justify paying the cost since they can finish that process in a week and it would take us months with our schedule and little kiddos. I have so many ideas for our home that I’ve taken from your videos ❤ I will say, out of topic… your hair looks so great! Love the length, color and the way you had it styled.

[@kendraelliott6761]

The table looks cute. I would leave it. You could also paint a thin round outline with a matching paint to the center lines. The bathroom mirrors: I would frame them and paint the frame black or the cabinet color.

[@mariawilliams1314]

Yay, for house projects! The new light fixtures look great as does the vanity stool. Love the way the table turned out. Looking forward to your bedroom remodel.😊❤😊

[@ThisCrazyLife]

Ahh me too!! It will be a process, but I can’t wait to see how it turns out in the bedroom!

[@aureliaknight8806]

I’m really loving the new light fixtures in the bathroom…can’t wait to see your room makeover!!! Yayyy 😊

[@angierice6474]

I absolutely love your DIY’s and the fact that you will DIY to save money and to get it to look the way you would like!!!!

[@ThisCrazyLife]

Ahh thanks! It’s amazing how much you can save, while customizing your home 💗

[@Clevast]

These DIY projects really show your creativity and dedication. 😍 Love how you're making your home more modern and cozy, especially with the personal touch in each project. Thanks for taking us along on this journey, and definitely looking forward to more of your ideas and transformations!

[@tinawilliams3059]

I like the shelf in the bathroom but I think it would look nice with a couple of baskets holding the toilet paper. I think the table looks cool also. You could also shine your the wood in the center if that would make you like it more. The lights look really great. What about moving the light over the vanity over and centering it on the vanity. Then you could hand separate mirrors and they wouldn’t look off center

[@cindylaffoon607]

I love the table Amanda. Leave it as is, it's an original.

[@ClaudiaPh21]

Hi Amanda, like others have suggested I would just frame the existing mirror and that would avoid the can of worm of having to deal with centering everything! Stool looks great in black!

[@nancyevoy4968]

definitely 2 mirrors on your sink and vanity any shape you want will look good. It is a big wall so you can use big mirrors to fill the wall.

[@kittykooky]

Your vanity seat is gorgeous !! 🌹

[@HannahMattox]

When you hate builder grade mirrors but you really don't have many other options, build a "picture frame" around it ;) just give it a pretty border, a frame around it can really change the whole feel!

[@staceybloomfield9631]

You are the first KZbin channel I have ever watched. I been a subscriber for probably about two years now. Love watching all the projects and cleaning motivation!

[@ThisCrazyLife]

Omgsh I love that it’s been so long!! And thank youuuu!💗

[@jenniferferreira9061]

Little changes make such a difference ❤

[@ThisCrazyLife]

They absolutely do!!

[@kelleypaylor8353]

I do like the table.. especially with your closet lighting… can’t wait to see about your master bedroom make over☺️

[@susanweimer8829]

You can put a single mirror on your side and a counter mirror on the vanity side. Something vintage would look great

[@cindylewis2624]

First, I love the table (chefs kiss). Very creative! Lastly, have u ever thought about doing square mirrors over sink & and oval over the vanity. This will help separate each area. So far, great job!!! 👍🏾

[@Bob-wr1mn]

We are DIYers too. Very happy for that!

[@jenocean824]

Oh my gosh, I LOVE Beyond Paint! I painted my kitchen laminate cabinets in soft gray and they are beautiful! I've also painted my wood cabinets in our bathroom as well as other wood pieces. It is the best paint I've ever used and so easy and a flawless finish!

[@huanandpuiyu224]

I think with a darker rim around your table middle would make it look more intentional and ground your table more. I like the inside color and think it would look great!

[@debbiemccann3711]

Amanda we had the same problem with a mirror so we framed it looks really nice.Love your bench.

[@carlasteelmon9274]

When you took the table in the closet I liked it a lot!! Looks great

[@shawnastewart1994]

Hi Amanda 👋🏾 I think the table turned out cute. I always second guess myself when something doesn't turn out as I envisioned!! I am SO excited to see a room make over so look forward to the upcoming episode of the Master bedroom 😅. Hope you all have a great week!!!

[@monettelee]

I would keep the mirrors .I would put a nice frame around them..They are in good shape..love you guys.A nice chunky painted trim and moulding.

[@crystalkirkland781]

I love the small random projects!

[@sheilabarry1521]

I think you should stain the middle part of that table. And maybe paint a different color ring around the inside edge of the paint. Try a large compass to paint it. I think the table is cool.

[@reginamcdonald6325]

I love stool you paint and the ligths look great.❤🎉

[@poshbyjodygreeneisen5147]

I would actually use baskets on those shelves to disguise the Toliet paper...but other then that...great job guys on everything 😊

[@AmyLuLuWrites]

Hey Amanda! I recently did what you want to do and took the builders grade mirror out and put up two mirrors. Remember tho that the lights are closer to the center of the wall/each other than to the side walls - weird to explain haha but it makes centering mirrors under the lights AND having the mirrors be big enough to look right is hard. I had to go with much smaller mirrors than I wanted but it’s still better than the ginormous BG mirror. Good luck - can’t wait to see what you do! ❤

[@cathleenweaver6483]

Yay!!!! Back to house projects. I really appreciate that you spend your hard earned money and time on continuing to furniture flip and DIY what you can. You give a lot of motivation and inspiration to us all 💜💙💚💛🧡 p.s. I think the table looks good. You're right and would have maybe been better with larger middle bowl but it still looks good. Haven't seen anything else like it so maybe you'll be starting a new trend hehe

[@ThisCrazyLife]

Haha maybe!! We can call it “bowl painting” 🤗😂 and yesss! I love the holidays, but they don’t leave a lot of time for projects lol - but in the beginning of the year, it just feels right!

[@joyceheaton2406]

I definitely love the stool.

[@mariejeanne9461]

Hi Amanda, I love the table!! Looks great!! I also liked the round dish, great find!! Great music as always. Best wishes.

[@ahooten1955]

I like the table as it is now.

[@jennyhullinger34]

Amanda I really like all of the projects you and Your husband did today ❤️

[@trickywoo8205]

I would colour match and do one very thin line a thrid of the way through the border, but defo make a featue of the inlay that you can

[@vvmarie9922]

I love how every thing turned out , I enjoy all your makeovers every thing turns out so good and you give great tips it helps me out that I feel more confident I can do all of things in my house on my own keep it coming

[@Erin-thornycrown7]

One mirror over your sink with a table top light up makeup mirror on top your vanity. You could put shelves or art where the mirror would go

[@abr369]

Put a clear wax or varnish on the table top. This will 'enrich', deepen the color of the timber and the inlay, and protect everything.

[@auntievk9852]

Amanda-I think the round table looks cool - I know what you’re saying about the wide band - maybe add another band within that wide band … try matching the darkest color!!! Great job by the dynamic duo once again!!!

[@judywelker2345]

Love, love, love all that you have done!!

[@robinmcmillin-of5ff]

At first I didn’t think I liked the table because I thought it looked off center but when you showed it from a different angle I thought it looked pretty cool. I agree with you however, you’re the the one who will be using it so you have to like it so, like you said, live with it for a while and make your decision later!

[@carmensiaca7297]

Put some clear mate polly on top so it completes the look. I like it

[@mariajennings5129]

The table looks fine! I like the lights u all put up, it looks nice. Great seeing u two again ❤see ya next time

[@lorijames3974]

I saw a bathroom with asymmetrical issues, just like you have and the designer embraced the asymmetry. They used two mirrors, different shapes, but both had black frames. The black frame part was the same size and shape, but the actual mirror shapes were different. It actually looked surprisingly good.

[@ThisCrazyLife]

Oh how neat!

[@patricial3803]

I personally leave the table as it is but put a gloss on top I think it’s cool.

[@rachellebeler2272]

I like the table top like that!

[@NYC_Chick]

The table looks really cool. ❤❤

[@elizabethbutler8583]

I think it came out good just need to put a protective on it

[@nancyciampa3485]

love the stool in black. I like the table. It's unique. The brown leather straps on the stool in the bathroom should be changed

[@elainecolner9663]

Hi Amanda, I love your ideas on all you projects. As for the table maybe try to take the color in the diamond and paint a border around the inside circle and around the outside edge of the table. Just a thought.

[@xbabii13girlx]

whenever i watch these house projects videos, i get so motivated to finally tackle our house projects. where do you get your motivation from? it always appears that yall are always doing something - i wish we were that motivated. i think the little table looks really nice white, and i love the little pattern, but i agree that the wooden center does look a little out of place now that the rest is painted (sorry, but you asked for honesty). I would consider painting the whole thing, but maybe paint that same pattern in black on top, so the design is still there, but the whole table looks cohesive since it'll all be painted. would require practice on the free hand painting though.

[@daniellemedina3501]

Love what you did to your vanity seat

[@Elizabethan72]

Hi Amanda, I agree with some others that a defining line between the lighter wood and paint is needed on the round table. Or maybe a darker color paint altogether to make the wood detail pop. Great job to both of you on the projects! 🙂

[@deborahmallabone1387]

Love the table top so unique 😊

[@mariluzvidal835]

Hi Amanda, I love all the projects today,blessend

[@shereemorgan1430]

Have a great week Amanda! 😊

[@kristycapotosta3995]

I love how the table turned out….that was brilliant!!! You should keep it like that!!

[@ThisCrazyLife]

Thank you, Kristy!!

[@reginamcdonald6325]

I love the table.❤❤❤

[@ambercummings8897]

It needs a border to break up the light on light between. Maybe a darker brown or black to pull in the other accents would make it looks more finished.
