that window is to die for

[@elizabeththequeen943]

Your kitchen looks fantastic! One change that would really put the design up a notch is putting a colorful backsplash behind the stove. If you can't do tiles, maybe a nice peel and stick in a tile design?

[@meh5069]

Love this suggestion! I feel like the room needs pattern or a splash of more color

[@medwayhospitalprotest]

Oh this amuses me no end. My apartment, in the UK, already has walls like that and I would love to have them all smooth and perfect 🤣

[@DIYsisters_]

Haha oh dear! I have a video called thrifting in England; that one might make you laugh too!

[@jenniferrice5877]

I love the makeover, especially the baker's rack. Gives the kitchen the understated pop of color it needs. Great job.

[@Nerdpainter]

your kitchen is stunning. im jealous of that window.

[@elpizarro7029]

I agree with ALL your initial thoughts its gorgeous for starters ! I got REAL WOOD CABINET ENVY!!! 😉However, the breadboards are enough with the ones by the stove; the rest are too much wood. If you must use them I would use them in a row in the wall where you hanged the shelf or on the window bay stacked from biggest to smallest vertically ! The brooms I would throw in the cleaning closet for the proper holiday or place them in a large cylinder vase or decorative earthenware or clay bucket container. A bay leaf, eucalyptus or other leaf dried wreath will look better than that plastic one by the door. Loved you coffee station ! 🥰

[@DIYsisters_]

Thank you so much!! Great ideas ☺️

[@pamelafox7677]

It’s a nice kitchen. Some small suggestions: the bakers rack is a little pale, it would be great to pull it out with a darker color, like park bench green by Fusion. Then since you have so much wood, paint just the window trim over the sink the same green which would pull that color across the room and add some relief from all wood beams and cabinets.

[@DIYsisters_]

Oh totally agree about the bakers rack! Great idea. I couldn’t decide what to do when I bought it so I’ve just left it. 😬

[@shelaghf]

I was going to add, the bakers rack colour is not right, doesn't tie into anything else, the room looks great

[@echo-thrift-store937]

U can spray hair spray on dried lavender to keep them from falling apart

[@DIYsisters_]

Oh good idea, I haven’t heard that before

[@jahmasin]

The layered boards on the wall look GREAT! Love the cutting boards. THE KITCHEN LOOKS GREAT! I would suggest hanging way more baskets on the beam. Fill it up. I love your style. Girl after my own heart.

[@DIYsisters_]

Yes! A maximalist just like me!! Haha ☺️

[@nancyx6390]

I agree with hanging more flowers to make the space more fuller above the window

[@flowerpower3618]

I added twinkle lights around my kitchen window- you might add that for a magical look.

[@-angie.]

Absolutely stunning! I love everything about it, especially that gorgeous window behind the sink. Bravo...you did a marvelous job!

[@lizloukiss]

This is an absolutely spectacular witchy cottage kitchen! I’m swooning over here! 😍✨🌿🖤

[@DIYsisters_]

Omg so kind!!!! ☺️ thank you so much!

[@jere5555]

The floral display by your cooking stove would look good,with twisty willow branches and minimal eucalyptus for a spot of green would be less apt to cause any flare-ups in that corner. The wall sparkle ..brilliant move. P.S. hope you are feeling better each day.

[@erinlee7216]

Fabulous! I have a bakers rack as well, I spray painted mine a rich matte black. Great job!❤

[@barbaracarbone4658]

Wow. You did an excellent makeover! It's definitely got the cottagecore vibe. I'm working on my cottagecore kitchen, too. Got some ideas from you too! Great job you did. Looks beautiful and warm. 🎉

[@carleenjones4148]

Love your coffee bar! Especially the wooden spice rack you repurposed to hold Kpods. I am on the hunt!

[@DIYsisters_]

Thank you!! Fun fact: I thought it would made for k cups at first, and my friends was like… that’s a spice rack. Haha.

[@missannetteslittlefarminth9069]

I really enjoyed watching you process through your decisions, very honest. Looking forward to watching your other videos.

[@DIYsisters_]

Thank you so much! So kind of you to say. ☺️

[@jvalderas4011]

That's a lovely transformation! I'm excited to see what other creative things you do to your walls! 🧙‍♀

[@DIYsisters_]

Ah love that emoji!

[@kate2create738]

Have a tip for arranging how you want items to be placed on your walls, trace the items (bread boards for your case) onto parchment paper big enough to capture the silhouette of the object, cut out the shape and arrange the parchment paper on the wall to help you establish a design that works with the space on the wall.

[@kate2create738]

And command strips should help with the broom situation.

[@auriswinters311]

Hi Sisters! Love the idea of a "portable" Coffee Bar/Bakers Rack. As we all know a Coffee/Drink Bar is all the rage right now. AND that Hand spackle technique...ummmmm, ingenious. I've wanting a handy man (woman) for stuff like this but I can do that! Excited to see more! 😊 Blessings from Iowa, Lauri

[@DIYsisters_]

Absolutely! It’s more fun than using a trowel too! 👩‍🔧

[@monicaw5036]

Have you ever seen those little tiny terracotta pots you can get on road side stands in Texas? I took some of them and tied them together with twine and had them hanging with my sage and different flowers, it kind of broke it up a little and looked more like a drying room where they'd have multiple items. Just a thought😉

[@cindyrasley627]

Love all the wood and dirtied flowers above the window look terrific ! ❤great job ! Really CUTE !

[@tiffanywalker7474]

This kitchen is beautiful!! I have been wanting to do my walls the same way!! Love the way it turned out!!

[@Laura-rx9mp]

Very nice. so glad you stripped that wallpaper. Loved it all!! The cutting boards look great

[@АннаШеремет-ъ1у]

Как мило, что можно, оказывается, самостоятельно выэрезать лобзиком красивые досочки! Спасибо за идеи! Мне очень понравилось, как Вы украсили свой дом! Очень уютно и радует глаз!❤❤❤❤❤

[@beckyberrett2415]

Everything looks so great!

[@DIYsisters_]

Thank you so much! ☺️

[@edithhardy5759]

So happy I found you , so talented. I love the bread boards on the wall. New subscriber

[@texasstardust6010]

...I really like the baker's rack , and I was thinking you might use a tray to corral the sugar, etc. I have a similar set up on an antique dresser, in my kitchen and all the " stuff " is in a tray ,easily accessible and looks much neater. :) I was curious about the finish on the walls, do you need to paint it, (?) How will it hold up with possible kitchen grease, etc (?). Looks cool, I just was wondering.

[@DIYsisters_]

I was curious about it too. I’ve lived with it for over a year now and it hasn’t discolored or should any signs of wear. I thought I would have to fix stains and stuff but so far, I haven’t had anything like that. If there’s an issue I’ll make sure to update! But so far, so good! Looks the same as when I did it.

[@lauraheinemann264]

I luv luv luv it... Definitely guna watch more of ur videos... God 🙏🏻 bless u

[@DIYsisters_]

Thank you!!

[@cherylferrell6687]

Love your cottage kitchen! The K-cups in the spice rack is genius! You have a beautiful niche right over your wine rack. Maybe hang some beautiful plates up there? You can create loops on your brooms using jute rope or wire and then attach command hooks to your fridge so you could hang them.

[@DIYsisters_]

Great idea!! Thank you ☺️

[@gothamellasmith]

Wow. 😍 You could hang one or both brooms in the window and then hang all the flowers and herbs on them. For even more witch vibes. 😁

[@janetdavis5619]

The kitchen is adorable❤

[@DIYsisters_]

Thank you so much!!

[@mariew6154]

Love that windowsill especially

[@MeganElaineWinters]

Obsessed!!! you did so good.

[@DIYsisters_]

Thank you! So nice of you to say!

[@noname-nr4iy]

I love it!!

[@laurasamaniego5274]

Love the amber soap bottles

[@gaylesimper9311]

You know, some witches have perfectly boring kitchens 😉

[@shiraberelowitz3859]

😂

[@catlady6938]

I am a witch my kitchen is a work in progress 😂

[@killielila]

I just moved My witchy kitchen is a mess

[@aliciajohnson9624]

Woodwork is so beautiful

[@CeciliaNorthWriter]

You are pretty blessed with the skeleton of the kitchen, that Window ❤ but Well done !

[@DIYsisters_]

That is definitely true! Those cabinets are worth a small fortune.

[@lisamarutz9772]

You did a great job ❤ Love all your details❤

[@melanierice24]

Beautiful! 😍 I was thinking when you were trying to decide what to over by the stove wall, you could come down further and and add a long rod with the hooks on it to hang copper pots and breadboards. Add a long shelf above it to put the mason jars on. Might be able to find one already made like that or just diy one. Just an idea. 🤷🏼‍♀️ It would fill that space then you could maybe add a big picture of a cottage scene or something where you have that smaller shelf. I see them at thrift stores all the time. Hope that helps. 😊 Love the idea of hanging the herbs above the window! ❤️ Look forward to seeing more videos!

[@chrisjackson2345]

I love the walls, I think I would have removed the wallpaper. Your window box would look awesome with some crocks with live herbs and maybe a lavender topiary Or olive topiary in the corner. The bread boards- I think I would have continued them (smaller ones) above the small cabinet- Love them. everything else is dreamy. Oh one more thing. I would replace the swag lavender with the brooms maybe? You are giving me ideas, thanks!

[@angelanapier4248]

My friend uses a baker’s rack for a coffee bar and I love it. Yours is very similar to hers. Make a plate rack and use it for your cutting boards

[@waffelsmellgood]

Super cute!!!!❤❤

[@deliciousbakingcooking7088]

Looking really great 👍

[@DIYsisters_]

Thanks so much! ☺️

[@csmith4484]

What a big change! Really nice job!!

[@DIYsisters_]

Thanks so much!!

[@yolandaperezvelez5988]

Stunning great diy ideas you did it ❤

[@DIYsisters_]

Thank you so much!!! ☺️

[@SuzesCarnivoreLifeAfterBypass]

New sub here. I love it!!! Love the hanging flowers. So many cool ideas. I'm definitely trying the joint compound on the wall! 💖💜💖

[@jackiel9536]

Is the idea of painting your fridge to a dark modernized version of a vintage color off the table? Like dark teal, olive green, dark grey, or even black?? Just ideas I like the bread board being layered on the wall but if they feel too clutter-y would putting the smaller ones on the section of wall where your 3 pictures are work?

[@rosagarner8806]

Soo Pretty

[@DIYsisters_]

Thank you so much!! This kitchen fills me with joy every day.

[@Caroline-tt9vo]

I loved the wallpaper 😅

[@Jodi-hx9qw]

Your big window over your sink is great, might want to keep it sparkly clean, with no curtains!

[@Sylvia-bs8zi]

Deine Küche schaut sehr gemütlich aus😊

[@sandywayne5219]

Love it!!

[@DIYsisters_]

Thank you!! ☺️

[@kaycfox3013]

I use the very same rack - it is my plant stand infront of my huge window in my sunroom

[@robertkorn7684]

Really turned out nice, did you ever paint walls or just leave the plaster? I think the coffee bar looks great, but also think it would look great over where your self in, that looks Abita bear on the counter..you could put plants on the place where your coffee bar is instead..would bring the outside in more..FYI, your kitchen window could use a clean..😊.... Gwen

[@jordandar1744]

I’m loving your videos and energy! Was wondering where in LA you are, I’m in Shreveport, would love to connect!

[@DIYsisters_]

So kind of you to say! 337 baby! Haha so basically very far, but Louisiana girls! 🥳

[@katen1228]

New subscriber and LOVE everything you’ve done. I may have to try that joint compound on my foyer. Is there a weird smell that comes off the joint compound? Hubs has a thing about smells. Did you paint the joint compound?

[@DIYsisters_]

Hey there, I guess it slightly has a smell to it from the bucket. But when it dries you can’t smell anything! (It doesn’t bother me though.) and I didn’t paint it! I thought I would, but I liked the color of it and didn’t think it was worth the hassle just to paint it a similar color! Been great so far, about a year and a half! And thank you!!! ☺️

[@sherryharding5792]

Love all the makeover you created. Looking forward to your next. However i am a bit confused with the title DIY sisters. Are there 2 of you? Forgive me if i missed something.😅

[@DIYsisters_]

Yes! We alternate videos and sometimes post them together! You can watch a room makeover we did for our niece! It’s on our page!

[@monserratramirezvergara3490]

Aprovechar la luz natural tan hermosa para poner plantas naturales 😉

[@DIYsisters_]

Oh I wish I could keep them alive! I’m unfortunately a plant killer.

[@gerhard6105]

Keurig is an American bread since 1992 but in Dutch it means decent/neat. Eu is pronounced as the u in BUS or THUS or the u in DUTCH 😊

[@nancyx6390]

Hi I am new to your channel and I want to say I did like you're after kitchen but I have two suggestions. okay ...they are my personal opinion but you asked .. and I have to say the witch brooms have to go and the eucalyptus above your door has to go everything else is pretty and fine. Remember this is my personal opinion which doesn't mean what you like and did is wrong.i do love the cutting boards and I made a few of my own too but they are sitting in the garage unpainted because I didn't know what color to use. I love the colors you use. Can you tell me what color stains you used 😉

[@DIYsisters_]

English chestnut, ebony, early american!

[@tammieecho3098]

I love how organic and natural this feels.

[@Lime_Angry]

I think a nice terracotta red colour would look better than the white paint

[@Livinginthe_end]

If I wanted to get my windows done like this, what is it called?

[@dianepereira1860]

The KZbin channel Pine and Prospect....her husband built a cutting board rack from scrap wood to display the boards on the wall. Perhaps that may be something you'd be interested in.

[@brittani1504]

What is the name of the song that you play about halfway through the video? I really like it but I can’t seem to find it based off the lyrics.

[@catherinecorn2371]

Is there a link for the towel rod ?

[@DIYsisters_]

Here's the gold bar I used: amzn.to/42IVkDr Let me know if that's what you were referring to!

[@catherinecorn2371]

@@DIYsisters_ oh my goodness! I can't believe you replied so quickly! 😍 Yes! That's the one. Thank you! Love what you did with your kitchen, it's absolutely precious. Love the idea of the hanging herbs, I think I will try to incorporate that somehow and the brooms on the fridge! Love it! I'm going to try some very strong magnets on the top of the fridge and hang the brooms on fishing line.

[@paulamcquade488]

Too bad you didn’t remove that wall paper. It will come loose eventually and be an even bigger pain to remove.

[@lindamashburn6109]

Did you paint the joint compound?

[@DIYsisters_]

No! Left it just as it went on

[@MauveMoonDesigner]

What I want to know is, where is the you in this project ? Cinnamon brooms are not something you just toy with. Did you do research on the witchy vibe? What no dried garlic?

[@DIYsisters_]

I am in all the sweat and effort it took to plaster those walls with my own two hands! 🤣 And I’m in the joy it brings me every morning when I make my cup of coffee and look out that glorious window; I get to feel like I’m in a little old timey cottage in the countryside surrounded by beautiful flowers and greeted with the comforting smell of cinnamon. ☀️

[@chromberries7329]

Thats fate that a house with such unique cabinets would end up belonging to the daughter of a dendrologist. Literally never knew that type of wood or dendrologists were a thing until today.

[@molliemae6855]

Why not take off the wallpaper? Did I miss something?

[@DIYsisters_]

Yeah my bad! I didn’t really explain that. One it’s just easier to cover it and not take it off. But the real reason is because it’s a 100 year old home, behind the wall paper is just center-match. It’s the old way they built a house, just wood framing everywhere and wallpaper on top of it. So I would have to put up dry wall or some other type of wall covering!

[@molliemae6855]

Oh, ok! Thanks for replying!

[@peggymohr7899]

Love everything except thr bakers rack looks like a tripping hazard for sure. maybe a short cabinet would be better.

[@kettleisalwayson]

Why get plastic herbs and flowers when you could get real herbs? They make your kitchen smell gorgeous.

[@DIYsisters_]

I actually tried that at first and it was so messy! Leaves and petals kept falling into my sink and on my countertop. Perhaps I bought a wrong kind, but they were also smelly.

[@kettleisalwayson]

@@DIYsisters_ I would try oregano, rosemary and thyme. Dry them in paper bags hung up in a dark ventilated area then spray with hairspray if you don't intend to cook with them.

[@maybee...]

Ya, that paper is pretty bad... So many other cute idea's tho...

[@DIYsisters_]

Thank you!!

[@psc1939]

Ok....you painted.

[@shaetanner1703]

The Lobby in hobby lobby stands for how they lobby to take away human rights from women. :)

[@DIYsisters_]

🙌🏻

[@gardenjoy5223]

I always take off any wallpaper! And why wouldn't you? With the right materials, is not that hard of a job, usually. 'Witchy vibes'... how unpleasant is the sound of that?! Makes me dislike the whole project. Spoils it for me. Like you would use 'terrorist vibes'. That has such a negative connotation, that the whole atmosphere would be spoiled. Minus the broom the end result looks nice. But yeah, the bad connotation does linger. No idea, why dried flowers would fall in this stupid vibe thing. Tons of people have them, without misnaming them into something harmful.

[@Cindy-ng6sx]

I used to be a Witch till I found out the religion is a lie , the God and Goddess are just an illusion your worshiping satan. Please repent find Jesus before your soul winds up in hell. Do your homework really look into whats behind it all took me 20 years to actually start my transition back to the only God that brings Life not Death. Beautiful job here ❤

[@tinamcivor2996]

Everyone dies Cindy, the great equalizer is death. Believe in whatever you want while you live. Peace!

[@RE-bg9ds]

You should get some appliance spray paint in a really nice green and do your refrigerator in your stove since you can't paint your cabinets

[@laurasamaniego5274]

Hi there first time watching your video! And I loved it! Your place is so cute!

Aw thanks so much! It’s very unique!
