Budget Bedroom Makeover DIY/Basement Bedroom Makeover

[@sforbis2001]

You have probably added at least $20,000 value to the home. They need to take you out to eat at a very nice restaurant to say thank you. Outstanding work. It looks so good. I’d say to keep everything similar I’d paint the kitchen cabinets black. Can’t wait to see what you do to the kitchen

[@peggymorton8998]

I also can't wait

[@Nancy-ii5yo]

I was thinking the exact same thing, but I really think Sherry should get a bit more than just dinner out.

[@queenb9070]

I used to clean houses. I had one house that had black kitchen cabinets. It looked amazing...when clean. I found that spilled liquids and spatter showed up more pronounced on the black. It was then I made a note to myself....never have black cabinets. 🤣

[@GrampiesCorner]

Esthetic do not add value to a home!! Thinking it added that much in value shows you don't have two clues what you are talking about in home valuations!!!

[@user-bo1rj2xu2s]

@@queenb9070 Agreed!

[@joannevangulick8813]

You are absolutely exempt from "no bragging"; you never do and you definitely deserve to. :)

[@jefferymorris4644]

Your son is so very very lucky to have such a creative and thrifty mom like you....

[@Southeastgeorgiapeach]

Wow, Sherry! Talk about taking this room from an ugly duckling and transforming it to a beautiful swan, this is truly stunning! I must admit, I was skeptical about the built in cabinet area. But true to your ingenious mind, you made it updated and functional. Once again, another wonderful magazine quality decorated room! Can’t wait to see the kitchen next week! Terrific job!

[@joycefloyd500]

Your son is so Blessed to have a mom like you and how talented you are. Hope he appreciate you and all your hard work!!!

[@CanterburyCottage]

Thank you, Joyce! He doesn’t say much, but I know he appreciates it.

[@juneroberts5305]

There is a big difference between bragging and stating facts. You just stated facts. 😁

[@CanterburyCottage]

Oh, thank you, June,😊 that is so sweet!

[@nancylopez4720]

What you did to that carpeted cubby is genius! The transformation is incredible with such little money. Great job! I can't wait to see the kitchen makeover.

[@joannsnyder6667]

Sherry…You are nothing short of amazing!! That ugly room turned out fabulous! You’re ideas are genius! Always look forward to Tuesdays! Can’t wait for more🙂

[@kimberlyd9049]

This is my favorite thing about Tuesdays--seeing what magic YOU have created in the previous 7 days. The bedroom makeover--especially the built-in dresser was inspired and transforming that awkward space underneath into storage was brilliant and exceptionally handy too. I think sticking with the black and natural wood for cabinets in the kitchen would follow the color scheme you have incorporated throughout the entire house. I'd probably go heavier on the "wood" details just to make it feel warm and "homey" (e.g., butcher block island with underneath storage and "hooks on some of the sides to hold dishtowels, miscellaneous kitchen tools?) Can't wait to see next week's installment!

[@beaatpeace2490]

Well, it's official...you're a miracle worker! The difference is, once again, amazing! You continually impress me. I can't wait to see what you do with the kitchen 💖

[@marianmalone9523]

You amaze me. The under the stairs makeover is genius. The entire room is gorgeous.

[@phyllisshand6183]

Another amazing transformation. I don’t have words to express the stunning changes you have made. The change to the cubby is outstanding. I wouldn’t have known what to do with that area. A great job!

[@MerryBee707]

Just when I thought you couldn't amaze me any more than you already have....there you go. I am beyond AMAZED at what you have created this time. Wow!

[@Violet316]

All I can say is WOW. I hope your son appreciates what you did for him.

[@SherryNerreau]

Is there anything you can't do Sherry? This makeover was brilliant! You are so, so talented and skilled. You never cease to amaze.

[@marvap8105]

Sherry you truly are a lady with many talents, I truly hope that your son and the homeowner appreciates you!

[@chastam2642]

Wow Sherry what a fantastic job you did!! Your son is very blessed to have a decorator/ designer and builder for a mom 😊 I admire your talent and energy.

[@kathrynschamanski3766]

Holy mackerel! You did a beautiful transformation on the room! It was hard to imagine what you would do with the challenges you had to deal with, but you did a tremendous job! Your son is lucky to have such a creative mother! Can't wait to see the kitchen makeover!

[@maritzaroman7511]

I admire you. You have the ability to fix the most incredible piece but you go for it until is done, And very well done and enjoyable. I bet you soon is going to enjoy and feel proud of his smart mother.🥰

[@margarettallett762]

He's graduated from college apt to adult space! Looks stunning!! You'd never know those shelves weren't part of the original space. Black cupboard, pale mint walls in the kitchen, to keep continuity throughout the small space. I know whatever it will be, is going to be fabulous!!

[@jenpeickert7624]

I think continuing the theme of black would be great. I painted my kitchen cabinets jet black & have never regretted it. They pop against a white wall. We added copper accents & it looks classy! Love the new bedroom!

[@jenpeickert7624]

I neglected to add that our cabinet faces were left a wood tone to keep it from feeling heavy & datk. But the doors are black w/copper pulls.

[@gingermccurley1679]

Wow! You are truly a creative problem solver, that area under the stair, the headboard the lights! All of it was amazing! You are truly a gem to your family!

[@houseonahill4893]

I sound like a broken record, but the transformation was unbelievable! You amaze me with your creativity, skill, and fearlessness!

[@ParamountDisney_AP]

You're amazing! Everything you've touched in that room made it come to life. Mia and your son are extremely lucky to have such a talented woman doing the renovation. I am so looking forward to seeing how you transform the kitchen. I would love to see you sharing more room make overs in the future. Your eye for detail is impeccable!

[@eagleriver7863]

What a talented senior lady! This shows that there is no racism and discrimination in USA. USA is the best country for harmony.

[@cherylparish1375]

This makeover is magazine worthy! Your video is what every day people with small budgets and big dreams wish for. You are kind enough to show us how to achieve it. Honestly you put the big name TV designers to shame. For them, it comes at a premium cost and every one looks the same. I can't wait to see the kitchen! So much fun!!!!!

[@heatherbrown4336]

Sherry you have outdone yourself again ! I love it your son is a lucky young man

[@barbarasmit7352]

What a talented lady you are. It looks super good and the budget projects are amazing. You have been able to make it a masculine space without missing all the lovely little decorative features you are known for. Your basement stash must be incredible.

[@CanterburyCottage]

It is a pretty big stash. I have an unfinished storage room in the basement that is the full length of my house (and half the width). Perhaps, I will show it in an upcoming video. It is a bit of a mess right now.

[@madonnahughey3056]

Good morning Sherry 🌄. All I could think was how in the world is she going to "fix" the recessed carpeted area! I shouldn't have questioned -- what you did is a miracle (in my opinion) - it's such a tastefully done, useful space now - I'm blown away. Can't wait for the kitchen, I know it will be just as amazing!! Love Amiah's reaction😊. Thank you for sharing Sherry 😊❤️

[@marciakessler1911]

THANK YOU so much for showing us we don't need $75k or more of most HGTV programs to transform our spaces! Your creativity is endless as well as your energy!! I am getting some of that grass cloth to have in my stash. Blessings to you and your family 💕 from Kansas.

[@thechickincharge1073]

I am a little sad at the ho hum reaction of your fabulous job!!!😭I think you are the most amazing on KZbin right now and I would be so ecstatic for you to do that at my house that I would probably tinkle my pants! Maybe they don’t see you and appreciate you like you deserve to be appreciated simply because you are theirs and that makes them too used to your abilities.

What you did in this room was unbelievable. That wall with the carpeted cubby was so hideous and you made it gorgeous. Wow wow double wow. I especially loved the idea of the dresser being built in . What a fabulous idea. Second knock it outta the park room in this basement, for you! Thank you , this was so enjoyable to watch.

[@jaynebrown693]

Sherry ~. What a fabulous transformation to this room! I love the storage space and how that looks! Brilliant to place that dresser in the “carpeted cubby”… that is grand! Then the shoe storage under. I can not wait to see the kitchen! I know there isn’t much in that “kitchen” when you showed us the space, so I’m really looking forward to your creative mind at work in there ! What I love about it all is it can be “famine BUT TOTALLY masculine” with your paint colors ! Just incredible! Well done .

[@bakreder1]

Your channel is absolutely unique. Makeovers, upcycles, organization, thrifted/Dollar Tree decor. . . you do it all so well!. I particularly love your "cheap" room make overs. They remind me of an old favorite TV show, Design on a Dime. The cubby-to-sleek-closet was inspired! Lucky kids!

[@melisamcdonnell4387]

Good morning Sherry! And happy Tuesday for all of us! The makeover of that carpeted cubby is incredible, I saw it and really thought, it's too ugly, there's no hope for it! But then I thought, Sherry can fix this! And you did. The whole room is just beautiful 😍 like everyone else, I'm super excited to see the kitchen!

[@barbie3166]

Incredible!! 🤩 It looks significantly better! 👍🏻 About the kitchen cabinets, I feel you should paint them black for a cohesive look throughout the basement. I can't wait to discover what you do next! 🫶🏻

[@annenickmom]

Well done! These kids are so fortunate to have your skills and devotion working on their behalf. Although an attractive and efficient living environment is often considered by some to be a plushy option, everyone's soul can be a bit more settled when there is a clean and comfortable place where it can retreat for restoration. More than just a basement makeover, you are investing so much quality into this intrinsic need for your kids. Looking forward to the kitchen makeover!

[@flowerchild777]

[@bonniejoberg388]

What a great makeover! The addition of the dresser and shoe storage under the stairs is perfect! Can't wait to see what you do with the kitchen too. What color to paint the cabinets? Hmmm, if you continue the same wall color into the kitchen maybe the cabinets would look nice two shades darker than the walls? I suppose you could use the same black on the cabinets but it might be too dark for such a small space? I'm sure whatever you do will be fabulous!

[@charlotted6247]

[@CanterburyCottage]

Thank you, Patricia! Can you believe that I found that ceiling fixture for $1? I really think people passed over it because the beads were in a separate pile, so it looked broken, but the beads hooked on easily.

Sherry,this is So Awesome,and a very nice gentlemans bedroom!! My husband and I own 20 homes and rent them out,we do all our own construction and even own a business doing that as well,but I've gotten so good at buying items and utilizing them for our rentals,renters do not even know all the bathroom vanities etc are second hand,and Yes caulking,and crack spackling will hide so much "ugly" and give you an awesome finished piece no matter what you use them on. I love that you just get right there and do it yourself, aren't afraid of a little dirt or power tools and you make these Transformations absolutely GORGEOUS,too!! Can't wait for your next video.

This transformation is nothing short of a miracle. When I saw the room before, I thought, "Oh boy, what in the world is she going to be able to do to that?" I am in awe at your talents. I think it would be fun to paint the cabinets that pale blue with a vintage looking kitchen and bringing in the black to tie it all in. Can't wait to see what you do with it.
