[@kimberlyclark5757]

I was looking at your spices and the electrical box by the stove. What if you created a spice rack, like the plate rack you made a while back. You could use 1”x2” boards and square dowels on a thin board backing (so you can easily remove it when needed). Just a thought. I love your ideas and content!!❤. You guys have a beautiful family and it was wonderful having the cameo of the baby!!! ❤❤❤❤❤

[@Lyndaragirl78]

Here’s an idea for covering that electrical panel. Have Nelson build you a spice rack a little larger than the panel and then take a piano hinge and put it on the same side as the opening for the panel. Make sure that the spice rack can go flush against the wall if you need to access the panel. I would probably have a wood piece at the back of the spice rack to cover the electrical panel up completely but it would be completely accessible. You could have it in a natural wood to compliment the white walls. And it would be readily accessible to your stove. It would also be cool to make it a little longer to also have some extra storage for incidentals. Love what you have done so far!!!! I would truly LOVE to have an auxiliary kitchen like this one, especially when your house gets built!!! This will be sooo great for parties because you wouldn’t have guests constantly going in and out of the other kitchen!!!! 💕💕💕💕

[@CatsAreCutiess]

nice and functional!

[@kathyyarbrough8656]

To cover my electrical box, I hung some shutters over them. I hinged them on the outside so we can still have easy access. Looks so good! Love the kitchen!

[@TheLatinaNextDoor]

That’s a cute idea!

[@cindysmalley1287]

How about a beautiful picture over the electrical box? Or paint it w/Chalk Board paint and write on it? Just a few suggestions. I'm sure whatever u decide it will be beautiful like the rest of ur lovely kitchen! ❤

[@katherynanderson8527]

Your kitchen is beautiful.

[@ginahernandez3219]

Looks beautiful and functional. Y’all did an awesome job! Thanks for sharing, Yami and the Latino Engineer

[@sariettetroskie4383]

I hanged art over mine. I made a frame that just rests / hangs on the edge of the electrical box. So it is easy to take it off when we need to access it. I wish I could send you a picture, I don't know if I'm explaining it well.

[@MJVega]

Everything looks beautiful! Including your baby girl. So cute!!! And, you both are so adorable working together! You truly are The Latino Dream Team 👊🏻👏🤜🏻🤛🏼👌🏻

[@rhondajohnson7905]

You could add a piece of artwork slightly larger than the electrical box panel. Use a piano hinge to hang it and it makes accessing the electrical box easy. Love the curtains and bright white paint. Simple and beautiful. Great job!

[@deaneclark6469]

Absolutely gorgeous, Yami! Y'all did a beautiful job, as always!❤ I love the shelves!❤ And your baby girl is just precious!🥰 As always, thank you for sharing your kitchen with us! Stay safe, healthy, and positive! God bless you and your family!🙏❤️🇺🇸😊

[@pamelataylor3537]

Yami, your whole kitchen is AWESOME. Actually your whole property is. You couldn’t have picked a better property and location. It seems nice and quiet and I love small town living and raising a family in a small place. I always lived out of town when my 5 children were growing up and then we lived on a farm for 15 years out of town when my kids were all older and then left home. I love your whole kitchen, my favourite part is probably the open shelving and your curtains, they are very cute. Oh sorry, I got the wrong favourite thing. My favourite thing about your kitchen was your precious, adorable, angel that your husband was showing off. She is so beautiful Yami. I know it’s hard when you have more than 1 baby or toddler but in the long run it is so much better, they always have a playmate and are generally closer to each other, they do things for ear other and your older children will also be able to help you too. I had 15 months between my last daughter and my 1st son and 11 months between my 2 boys my last 3 were extremely close to each other and they all looked out for each other. Have a great weekend.

[@brendamac4014]

You have the sweetest voice. The cottage is looking fabulous and cozy. Thalia is beautiful. Wishing you and your family a fabulous 2024. ☺️🩷🙏🏼

[@hsepulveda1]

The kitchen is absolutely beautiful! You and Nelson make a great team! Even more beautiful, is your baby girl, oh my gosh she is a little beauty ❤❤❤

[@chriseschelbach9710]

Love your new kitchen. Both you and your husband work so well together. A lot of grace, with your beautiful baby daughter to add to all of your hard work. Tfs. God Bless.

[@marlasturgill8306]

You guys done an Outstanding job on the cottage kitchen it’s Stunning!!!

[@MsCoopersCoop]

Teamwork makes the dream work. GOD has truly blessed Nelson with the skill set. Good for you all

[@lorrainearmstrong327]

I was telling my son how much Nelson was working on your home. I like to call them homes instead of houses, because I feel like that’s what we all want to achieve. Back to Nelson. If I’m not mistaken, I told my son he learned a lot from you tube. Your home is coming together for beautiful. What fun memories you will have with your children for the rest of your lives. ❤

[@phyllisanngodfrey6137]

Yams, you are looking fabulous and so is your current abode. God bless you, Nelson and ALL the kids🥰 PS. Kudos to the Latino engineer 👍🏻😉

[@njb1814]

Everything looks so beautiful Yami! I love that kitchen faucet. The curtains are so pretty too, shelves, it all turned out great! I loved seeing the baby! She's adorable and growing fast! Good job to Nelson and you, and the kids for helping!❤

[@lem4100]

I would try a canvas picture over the electric box. They're light weight & easy to take down & put back. Don't keep your spices that close to the stove for very long. The heat will ruin them so I've heard. The kitchen is looking so good. Nice and bright. Love the open shelving & the nice jars. The baby is just too adorable.

[@brendahamilton7630]

Love, Love your beautiful tiny guest! As for your little cottage -just wonderful! I would totally live in it permanently. But there is only myself and my husband. (and all the junk I have collected over our 50 plus years together). Have a wonderful happy life!

[@donnahawkinsharper8344]

I hung an old window that has a painting on the back. However, you could paint the box white, then hang an old window and frost the panes of glass. Hang a small green wreath and tah dah! A lovely accent piece & no more breaker box. As for you spices, just build some small shelves just the size of your bottles. Your kitchen looks so beautiful! Great job! 😊❤😊🙏

[@lindasmith5190]

Oh my goodness...how adorable...the baby and the kitchen!!! I think a canvas painting over the electrical box would work.

[@shawna0301]

First off the baby is adorable! Everything is beautiful and once again I Love how well you and Nelson work together and include the kids. GREAT JOB!

[@alee9961]

Your kitchen is terrific and it has a beautiful feel to it. I see you making wonderful meals there and making great memories. The Sweet Guest appearance was a great surprise. She is adorable. Many Blessings always 🙏🏼.

[@rosyberg6144]

I loved your guest appearance, she is absolutely beautiful.❤

[@beverlylones9552]

Oh my goodness, the kitchen is absolutely gorgeous! I love the open shelves!❤️❤️

[@mytinycastles5855]

Bravo 👏 👏 Every detail is beautiful!!! and the baby…such a cutie !!

[@barbaralamoreaux328]

Favorite part: the brackets! You are going to build a charming spice rack soon, we can tell. Also, I’d just hang a picture or mirror over the electrical panel. Easy, peasy.

[@marycoffee7366]

Gorgeous kitchen light, airy, functional . Well done 👏👏👏👏

[@emsmomma4606]

Oh my goodness, your cottage home looks so cute! You and your hubby make such a great team! Personally I like the white mixed with natural wood tones….well done 😊. Regarding the spices, I purchased some spice racks that are magnetized from Amazon. I put them up on the side of my frig…doesn’t look tacky. Since you want them by your stove for cooking, how about a cute spice rack fixed to the wall? And one more thing…the little cameo your baby girl was just precious! It’s those unexpected cute and funny moments we all appreciate and love! Take care and thanks for sharing! 😊

[@bevhueffmeier949]

Lovely. Open cupboard shelving is not my thing. Everything gets covered in dust, cooking oil, and Pet hair, but, you do you!😊 To camouflage your breaker box the obvious and easy answer is cover it with a framed picture.

[@martyhadley2137]

Your baby girl is so beautiful. She has your eyes!

[@janiebirdthorn]

It’s looking so lovely and homey! Maybe you could build a command center to put over the box, or a spice rack, or just art. ❤️

[@patriciahagedorn5694]

I suggest you put a spice rack to cover the panel door to the right of your stove. Paint the door the same color as the walls and add the spice race over it. It would be convenient and close to the stove. I have wondered where you guys went. I watched you a long time ago but lost touch. I came across you today and have spent the whole afternoon catching up. I sure missed a lot including the addition of another baby and your current pregnancy. The cottage is absolutely gorgeous. I can't wait to watch your new home being built on your beautiful property. I'm back for the journey.

[@Thatsinteresting363]

BEAUTIFUL ❤ My hubby and I are thinking of building a cottage for retirement. I love the simplicity and soothing atmosphere you have created. Nothing says home and love like a cottage.

[@denisetarabori553]

There was never a moment’s doubt that your kitchen would be fantastic!! I wasn’t sure about the corbel openings being left natural until I saw your storage container lids in natural wood and then the natural pegs and sink accessories! Perfection! The lace curtains put a great big smile on my face. What a sweet cottage addition. The biggest smile I had was when your precious bambina photo-bombed the video!! 💗 I have those cabinets (in sage green) in my new kitchen and honestly, I can’t even believe I chose the same shape and style pulls as you. Mine are black with lightly burnished copper along the edges. My appliances are all black. I am so into your cottage! My over 100 year old family home flooded from a water pipe break in the upstairs bathroom across and down through the upstairs all the way down through to the basement. Sooo I have gone through a full gut job and renovation (still have a few projects undone) over 4 years. But I went white white white!!! Lol! And I now call my home My Brand New 100 Year Old White Cottage Haven! Oh and the pear print between your kitchen windows is so pleasing to my eyes! I was thinking something coordinating with that double framed out and hinged on your utility box is ‘food’ for thought. See what I did there?? 😊 And the lastly, I want to caution you to keep your spices up and away from the heat and humidity of your stove. Can you tell how much I enjoyed and love watching what your labors of love have put into your Pequeña Cabaña Next Door! Ciao, Adios and Much Love ❤

[@thedantzler6554]

Soooooo Pretty! I love the little bitnof natural wood. Ya'll did a great job!❤❤❤

[@CarolynS.Cooper-io4jw]

My neice painted a beautiful picture of our 2 horses and our donkey. I framed it and hung it to cover our breaker box in our dining area. Art was our answer !

[@TheLatinaNextDoor]

I think that may be our answer too! And how awesome to have an artist like that in the family!

[@deborahpalm7657]

You and Nelson have created a beautiful, classy kitchen. Well done!

[@Tcosby]

The baby is so precious !!! Thanks for letting us see her, I think a chalkboard would look cute over the electric box ! You could keep store list or dinner menus or events the kids have coming up !! I know you can make one that is super cute !!!

[@brendapadua3946]

Oh my goodness! She is just precious! ❤

[@mariav8628]

Yami the kitchen looks amazing. Love the open shelves. To cover the electrical box I have seen a cow face canvas at home good, maybe you can find a farmhouse canvas to put over it and is easy to remove. I have to say the best part of today’s video has to be baby girl cameo. TFS 😊

[@sandramarroquin3691]

Everything!!! love it!!!❤from start to end!!! And your baby so adorable beautiful ❤️❤️❤️❤️😍

[@heather87135]

Beautiful! Love the colors, counters, glass and shelves, all of it!😍💕

[@ReginaEwing]

Enjoyed everything, especially your encouraging visions! I'm about to downsize to a "small" home! And enjoy your visions of Home Decor... inviting, relaxing, and you feel welcomed once you walk in! I want my home to feel that way as I enter this stage. I look forward to what you share next. Especially as y'all are living what you are showing. Thank you. And may God Bless your family as you continue your family visions and dreams come true.

[@margaretdillinger5090]

So elegant and classic. I’d hate to cook lol. I covered a electrical box in my granddaughter’s bedroom with a kite( non-plastic) as Pooh was fly a kite and it got tangled in the tree I painted along with Pooh Bear. I absolutely love that lil kitchen. So happy the lil darling girl made her appearance in the video.

[@michelegrigg4952]

I love the open shelves with the clear glass containers for food storage.

[@yvonnenunez9109]

Your kitchen looks beautiful, love those curtains. And maybe a farm house framed art to put over your electrical box. 💜

[@PatriciaPhillips-i3x]

I am Patty, Christine Betlem mother and she is the one who showed me your site and I am very happy to watch everything you and your husband Nelson do. You are a beautiful lady with very special talents both personally and professionally. I live with my great daughter and we are happy to spend many hours watching the progress you make and how you do it all. Everything is beautiful so keep up the good work and know we are very interested to see your future work. God bless you and your beautiful family and good health and happiness as you continue to build your dream come true home. Best wishes. Patty❤️💕

[@TheLatinaNextDoor]

Oh thank you so much Patty! What an honor to know that you watch me with your daughter. Christine is such a great person, you must be so proud! Thank you for your kind words and I am so happy you are part of the familia!

[@maryhutto5112]

Your kitchen is looking beautiful 😊. Thanks for sharing your beautiful baby😊🥰🥰🥰🙏🙏🙏

[@jillcochran9794]

I do love that you can see the wood thru the corbels! It looks lovely, but I knew it would!!

[@maryking3033]

Oh what a beautiful room, it looks amazing. But all your projects look amazing. If you want the spices to be along the left wall. Can hubby make a hanging spice rack, with a back. This is why. Hing it along one side so if you ever need to access the panel box just fold it open, like opening a door. If you need it a little more to the left of the panel door. Cover it with a nice peg board , for recipes to be close at hand while cooking. And create the spice reach to flow along the same size as the frame on the board. Adding some of the wood to the wall will be a suttle transfer.

[@dianadunham6691]

Such a pretty kitchen! I love Nelson's precision!

[@maggiepadilla6915]

Love the cafe curtains! Love the shelves! Love the baby!lol. Good job guys. Sp professional looking!

[@gingram110]

How wonderful for you to have a functional kitchen again! It looks so good and you’ve thought through every detail. As I looked at that electrical box I thought of an artist canvas. So many ways you could decorate one.

[@lorithomas3129]

Maybe a hinged door over electrical box. Could make it into a chalk board to make grocery list.

[@laurajeffcoat4731]

Yami you should check out cosmopolitan cornbread. Constance has a spice rack totoral on how she has built her's. You could get a lot of tips from her channel . Your kitchen looks incredible. You and Nelson and the children have done a wonderful job. Love those lace curtains their the perfect touch for your windows. Love everything about it. As for your electric box you could add a shallow cabinet over it. I had to do the same thing in my kitchen. If you do it right no one will ever know. Hope these ideas help. Thank you so much for sharing your gorgeous kitchen with us. 🤗💓💕💞

[@idavera55]

Absolutely beautiful! Love the shelves and the hardware. That baby is precious! Can I hire you to decorate and Nelson to do everything else, I am sure he is not cheap, lol. Have a wonderful week/weekend.

[@terridantzic4361]

The kitchen is adorable Yami! I loved getting to see the baby. She is beautiful and growing like a weed. Thank you for sharing.

[@heatherbrown4336]

[@kathyfowler1274]

It all is So Beautiful!! I Love the whole Corbel idea!! 😮 So smart!! ❤😊

[@debrinafleure1916]

WOW absolutely beautiful 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 you guys are amazing! I wished my husband had those carpentry skills!!😁

[@marywest2896]

shelves are my favorite....about the electrical box, paint it the color of the walls, then make shelves the width of your spice jars, have the shelves about 2 inches wider on each side of the box but have the top of the shelf where the spice jar top will be just a tad taller than the top edge of the electrical box...space as necessary and have the bottom shelf be one half inch lower than the box this way all the edges of the box will be covered...have the shelves all in one, and in the same wood color as the natural wood in the spice tops, the pegs.etc....and when you need to get into the box, there are 2 ways to do it., I would get a piano hinge and hinge one side, the right side while standing in front, that way the hinge will be facing the stove, it could swing open to get to the box, or hang it on two hangers and lift it off...I would use the hinge...could maybe paint it white also...you can put a dowel across the back or a thin piece of wood about half an inch wide to make sure the spices don't fall out the back...and if you have more spices than say 4 or 5 shelves just go further down the wall, not too wide, go down, so the hinge won't be stressed....your handsome Latino engineer can make you a spice shelf easy peasey ....did I even make sense.....now if you don't want to do the shelf get a painting and cover the box....but you need to have your spices handy, so good solution to two dilemmas....

[@deefaye7336]

So charming and pretty. Over my electrical box I hung an unframed canvas print that fits my decor and no one is the wiser and quick to remove if needed.

[@kristineallison4787]

Absolutely stunning 😍 you both did an amazing job. Leaving the wood color brings in your butcher top. Your spices are too beautiful to hide in a drawer so I know you'll come up with something amazing. The way u pleated those beautiful lace curtains was genius. I could keep going. Lol I just think its ALL perfection and so is that little photo bomber lol. Can't wait for more

[@GerberPlumbing]

This looks amazing, Yami! We are always so excited to see what masterpiece you will create with our products, and this absolutely knocked it out of the park!

[@TheLatinaNextDoor]

Thank you so much! It helps when we use products that are high quality designed beautifully 💕

[@janetgray8737]

Yami, find a picture that would fit over the electric box. That would be an easy solution. Kitchen looks beautiful.

[@kimscrafttime9184]

So cute, I love it. I have a suggestion for all your spaces. Put a shelf over your stove or on the wall next to the stove and put your spices in either of those places. Both convenient and will look great which ever way you decide to go.

[@beverlynelson599]

Great job from both of you it looks amazing….does Nelson realise he’s got a mammoth task ahead building a farmhouse. and you of course Yami….the baby looks gorgeous how quick they grow love to all look forward to the progress

[@donnacrosleythibault812]

Yami, how about using a chalk board/bulleting board on a hidden hinge to hide the electrial panel door. As far as the spices, you didn't mention if you wanted it to be permanent since one day you will have your new home and I'm sure you will take the spices with you. LOL Make a rack of some sort that can be moved when the time comes. Nelson is to talented, I know he can make you the perfect spice rack.

[@RachelCalderon]

Maybe creating a spice rack frame that opens and closes to access the electrical box? I’m sure you’ll find something that will work well in that space. 😊

[@RobertaBostrom]

Paint a canvas print to cover the electrical box I’ve seen you do it before. Add a shelf to the left for your spices. Also put them in alphabetical order it really helps when trying to find them. Love the kitchen.

[@beverlylones9552]

Your little girl is so beautiful, absolutely adorable!

[@TheLatinaNextDoor]

Thank you so much!

[@ildi1969]

The kitchen looks amazing!! Love the open shelving! For the spices you should make a spice ladder and mount it on the left of the stove.

[@RandomlyRiz]

Install a hinged spice rack over the electrical panel. That will allow you to still be able to access the panel 😊

[@MamaCrazyCakes]

Dile a Nelson que lo quiero mucho, no más que a ti, pero me encanta muchísimo todo lo que hace. Sé que está dirigido por ti, pero me encanta la idea del equipo que hacen juntos. No puedo esperar a ver tu casa hecha y decorada por ti. Los gabinetes de la cocina se ven muy bonitos y delicados con los handles, que escogiste para la cocina. Tú bebé está hermosisima y cachetoncita. Está para apretarla con mucho cariño. Muchas Bendiciones para todos ustedes 🙏. Dios te Bendiga tú hogar, porque dónde pongas tus manos, ya se convierte en tu hogar. Tienes una imaginación privilegiada para ver las decoraciones y cómo quedarían.

I would hang a cottage canvas photo over the electric box or some type of shutters 😊

[@beverlymontes8159]

Oh, my God, I love what you did in that cottage. I am so jealous. You are so talented, the both of you as a team. You are very lucky and God bless you and your whole family. And your little girl, oh my gosh, She's so adorable God bless her.

[@mistylebrun6383]

You can hang a picture over your electrical box .. love the kitchen ❤

[@mializzim]

It looks beautiful, you've inspired me to add pegs above my coffee bar now 😮 Have hubby create a spice shelf/rack on a hinge to cover the electric panel so that it would basically swing open like a door when you need to access the panel or just paint over it with your wall color. I have one next to my couch, I just painted it with my wall color and don't even notice it.

Hi Yami! Your kitchen is beautiful! To cover the electrical panel and maximize space, I would make a custom spice rack for your spices. It looks close to the stove so I believe it’s going to be functional and look nice.
