Dining Room Remodel!

That kitchen is nearly finished but so many other things have been happening behind the scenes! I've been longing to redo the dining room so we can have a special place to share all the dishes I whip up and entertain family and new friends. Our friend Susanna Salk helped us to realize our dreams and create a space I love! She also just so happens to have this AMAZING KZbin interior design channel that Brian and I are obsessed! I hope you check her videos out and let me know what you think of the finished space!!!

Thank you dear John for inviting me into your home and design process. I admire your fearlessness and keen eye as much as your cooking!!

[@PreppyKitchen]

Oh my gosh, thank you Susanna!!!! You and your beautiful books were such a help!

[@hopper6094]

@@PreppyKitchen did you do the house tour yet??

[@brodydariel5388]

You prolly dont care at all but does anyone know a way to get back into an instagram account..? I stupidly forgot my password. I would appreciate any tips you can give me!

[@brodydariel5388]

@Sam London thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff now. Seems to take a while so I will get back to you later with my results.

[@missbubbles8367]

Normally, I just like to see the reveal. However, seeing your enthusiasm for decorating your dream home was infectious! I enjoyed the design process so much, I didn't even skip to the end. I'm so happy for your family. I can't wait for y'all to enjoy all the memories that lies ahead.

Yes I’d really love a house tour !!!

[@vjohnson2400]

Just a tip for your curtains. Make the pleats where you want them and then loosely tie a flat ribbon around them and the curtains will ‘learn’ how they should hang. Looking forward to seeing the rest of the house.

[@PreppyKitchen]

Yes! The curtain lady told me that but I forgot! Thank you!

[@wholeNwon]

What curtains?

[@guadalupeblakey9926]

Exactly. They kinda look like an overweight person in a small dress. Love your house.

[@quintessenceblg]

Congrats John - looks fabulous! Love your channel. And thank you so much for the shout out! Susanna and I are thrilled that you are fans of our channel as well!

[@PreppyKitchen]

Thank you!!! Your videos are one of my FAVORITE things on KZbin!

This is turning into a bit of a vlog and I’m not even mad

[@teeandkids937]

Juanita VanMeter right I’m in heaven lol

[@scotth.9295]

I saw a video of you making lemon cake, watched it and then watched your other videos and then to New York I went with you guys. Then the tour of the farm and now the dining room. I guess that’s what they call a deep dive. Keep up the great work.

[@jilljoemolly]

I can tell your house is gorgeous just by the dining room and seeing the wreaths on the windows. Keep us posted.

[@theschnauz2138]

I love Susanna and quintessence! What a great crossover.

[@quintessenceblg]

🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@PreppyKitchen]

She and Stacey are amazing and I'm so tickled that you watch both of our videos!

[@yolandasilverio1205]

Great job done and Susanna was great too!

[@SuperShania81]

Omg, this is my other obsession other than cooking - interior design! I love these types of videos, I hope you are able to produce more for us as your renovations progress. Shopping for fabrics, antiques and redoing pieces is one of my side hobbies, along with distressing hubby with rearranging rooms and endlessly trying to change the house. I hope this isn’t too stressful for you both and you get to enjoy the process x.

[@Passionforfoodrecipes]

It's all coming together! Merry Christmas everyone!

I love that wall paper and the chairs!!But really the way everything ties together! Dying to see that kitchen!!!!

[@laurag.7780]

You r so wonderful for sharing! It's absolutely incredible. What a wonderful step by step color pull from the wallpaper! Incredible!

[@jrbon4619]

Susanna and Stacy are awesome!

[@mochibear8933]

The dining room looks amazing! Really enjoying seeing your new home coming together, it's beautiful! Can't wait for the kitchen reveal! You must be very excited! Love how you have so many creative friends! Off to check out Susanna's channel! Hope you've had a nice Christmas! Happy New Year! - I made your Christmas cupcakes & the Christmas tree cake for the second year running & added some Royal Icing to your sugar cookies for a change from roses! The plate was cleared in seconds & everyone wanted the recipe!

[@PreppyKitchen]

The best compliment! Thanks so much!

[@annjohnson543]

Oh my GOD! I love your dining room, especially the light fixture!!! Even the drapery rods are awesome! The wallpaper is shimmery and beautiful, and transports you to the outdoors. Your table, chairs and rug should just be packed up and sent to me. Amazing, John!

[@tchriste52]

Being “spatially challenged,” I have great admiration for anyone who can decorate a room. I love the wallpaper & the paneling. I’ll bet your Christmas dinner set up was beautiful! Hope you have the happiest New Year.

[@22werwerwer]

Always save the paper and the extra paint. Cheap paint touches up better than thick expensive paint. Expensive paint showed up when you spot paint in my experience. In regards to children messes.

[@marthaosunamontellano6544]

Thanks for keeping us updated. Can't wait until its all finished and especially the kitchen!

[@angelagraham7590]

Sooo good to watch you - I’m a big fun! I love your kitchen with all those beautiful copper pans and et al showing off your good taste; your wonderful vegetal garden, nearly Victorian like, was an unexpected surprise. It was good of you to let us all peek in your home & lifestyle. … carry on, the world needs more people like you. AngMar from Durham, City, Uk

[@DCANOTXZ]

Beautiful wallpaper and the color for the curtain it’s beautiful 👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️

[@robertyanes4751]

I thought I'm not a patern person, but John its incredibly stunning. Continued success!

[@johnsheets6902]

WOW! What a transformation and love the wall covering. Hint: train your draperies by using some kitchen plastic wrap to make ties after you get your pleating smoothed out. Use 2-3 plastic ties per panel will take 3-5 days. Can’t wait to see the rest of your home! Happy New Year to your family!!

[@PreppyKitchen]

Excellent tip!!

[@CMTHFAF]

Beautiful! The molding color as wonderful!

[@bojanalukic8515]

My favorite You tube channels in one video 😍

[@staceysmith3991]

Lovely! The wallpaper is my favorite. It definitely has an East Coast more formal look without being stodgy.

[@judymckerrow6720]

It’s wonderful when you can put together something you love. Everyone has different tastes, thank goodness because if we didn’t everyone would like the same thing and how boring that would be. Your creating something you love and as I said that’s wonderful. I’m not a fan of your choices but as long as you enjoy it and love it that’s what counts🙃

[@xjpenn]

Top of the wainscot as it meets the "ground" of the wallpaper has a three-dimensional effect -- at least on screen. Bonus.

[@andreamarin4296]

Beautiful! Thanks for the link to her channel. I have to redo a whole house I bought two years ago and am at wit’s end for ideas!

[@azaleaflower9738]

I love Susanna too!

[@gracecakes8241]

At Christmas I hang red velvet curtains in the dining room and to train perfect pleats in no time I actually threaded craft wire through the bottom hem and bent to perfect rounded pleats. I used needle nose pliers to round the ends so the fabric didn’t get damaged, worked like a charm. If your curtains don’t have open hems the pleats can be trained with super thin fishing line tied around, like 4lb weighted fishing line. Be blessed as the home comes together! ❤️

[@sarahpadgett14]

The dinning room looks BEAUTIFUL!! I can't wait to see the kitchen reveal!

[@sarahhancock848]

I love the wallpaper! Wallpaper has kind of been on my bad side since growing up in the 80s with the leftover 60s and 70s paper on the walls that made everyone just want to rip it off. But now I think I might really need to give it a chance. The whole room is beautiful and tasteful. Nice job!

[@maryochoa3838]

[@princess1818ib]

Gosh I wanna be part of that household. I’ll be a nanny! John, Here’s my brief resume. I can teach the kids Spanish, I cook really good Spanish foods, I’m OCD when cleaning, I know how to ride a lawn mower to cut that beautiful pasture-like yard you have (I have 8 acres in the country side of TN), I’m super organized and I love baking and I’m short and slim so I can fit anywhere in the house. I can live under the kitchen cabinets so you drop off crumbs I can live off of that 🤣🤣🤣 Every child deserves to grow up in a home with such beautiful parents and amazing positive energy like yours.

[@lisabrown270]

Like the wallpaper and the trim color. Thanks for sharing. ❤️
