DIY *Budget* Kitchen Makeover REVEAL (Our Island Fixer-Upper)

[@MrKate]

We finished our kitchen just before the storm hit and we are OK and sending our thoughts to anyone affected by it. We’ll give you an update with our experience in an upcoming video! Love you all and thanks for watching! Hope you love the kitchen!!!!

[@kellistorie7917]

Looking fabulous y'all! Love the color of the fridge. The wall paper and rug are simply divine! Congratulations on all your endeavors! Which island do y'all live on? My daughter, Tricia Belle, lives on the big island. I bet y'all would get along famously.

[@PratirupaSarkar]

I have always loved being surrounded by colors but somehow fear that it will be overwhelming. I love watching your videos because you rarely give in to being safe and pretty. You use the brightest colors, loudest patterns, but show us how to have the right balance! Love your videos and so happy for your new home. Congratulations

[@kimhoney9052]

So glad to hear you're ok. Prayers for those in need🙏❤

[@susanzanardi6274]

I just love the fact that moon gets o have parents who will let him be as creative as he wants to be 😍

[@MrKate]

A little creative weirdo already! 😉

[@-Bloomingtales]

If I ever have a kid I definitely want to raise them like this. That’s what my mom did with me 😌

[@andreabrandle6575]

Moon’s idea of popsicles on the Christmas tree is like a beach paradise version of winter wonderland icicles! So genius and very fitting 🤩

[@ethanmcgrath5345]

yeah Moon is an absolute King for that one ❤️‍🔥😍

[@happymarshmallow9628]

Moons idea with the popsicle as decoration for the Christmas tree shows he’s got that creative gene in him too 😭❤️!!!

[@katy8605]

He's going to be like a interior design prodigy or something. People will be like we want your toddler to design our room lol

[@feitocomfruta]

Not to mention that popsicles as ornaments are pretty easy to make too. Like, it’s pretty simple as a shape, plus you could get popsicle molds and use them as well.

[@thecreativecasita]

I must confess, I was a little apprehensive about a colorful house, but this totally works! Kitchen looks great

[@mariacasella979]

I can't be the only one that doesn't want this series to end!!

[@MrKate]

Hi Maria, well you’re in luck we still have a ways to go! 😉

[@Vickpiure]

@@MrKate we need moooooooore episodes! I have been following you since I was in 10th grade (meaning 7 years now) and watched EVERY SINGLE episode from every series!!). Love you!

I was thinking I need Mr. Kate video every day!! Lol

[@MeganG.Andersen]

You’re not alone 😂

[@chrystalg5024]

You are not alone

[@ruchipatel860]

I just love how Kate and Joey makes sure to compliment every little thing Moon does and tell him that he's doing very good, I know he's going to be an amazing creative weirdo just like his parents

[@letitiakiu]

Kate, it's been a while since I've caught up and I'm so happy to see you and Joey are expanding in Hawaii! Everyone is glowing and the pink kitchen is *chefs kiss*

[@AutumnHarvest1]

I love the peach colored fridge. Also, Moon's idea for the Christmas tree was such a great idea. I think he and Kate are going to be starting a new tree trend.

[@PratirupaSarkar]

Mr. Kate Christmas decor! Guys, do it please

[@LaurenVR.]

While this isn’t my style at all, I would love this while staying in an Island house! And it fits y’all’s personality so much! So fun and so creative!

[@MakeTimeNow]

I totally get the island vibes you're going for. I'm someone who was born and raised and currently living in Hawaii. I miss your old renovation style though. This is like just painting stuff. I hope whenever our dumb state decides to give you the building permit, you get some real fun stuff done to modernize this house.

[@jaune-soleil]

But, this is a great way to show how you can make a big difference with a little budget. Also, we’ll get twice the content when they redo each room with the permit.

[@aksez2u]

@@jaune-soleil Exactly! Every room will have two levels of renovation.

[@yupitslola]

I am officially a believer in the saying "trust the process". A M A Z I N G!

[@MrKate]

Thank you! Glad you like it ❤️

[@thickkysmalls]

man these “episodes” just are not long enough. im always left wanting more.

[@brittanyjeanspiers3141]

I agree I know the process is long in a makeover like this I’d love it if they made 20-25 minute long videos

[@Finnectriescosplay]

You guys never fail to impress! Also I love when moon says “I am moon” in the intro

[@CreatingIntentionally]

Me too🥺🥺❤

[@rebeccarendle3706]

Love how the counter tops now "blend in"... It all looks so harmonious!

[@gisellefrias2686]

Agree, was just about to comment that

[@misskaydiy8747]

The table DIY is so relatable for anyone who has tried to DIY something new and crazy. I know how it feels but don’t give up!

[@universeoflala]

I love watching how you both are with moon. Letting him help and be a part of the process, and allowing him to create and express himself. Not a lot of parents do that. I also loved the way the kitchen turned out!

[@HaveaBiscuitt]

The stress I felt when Joey let Moon shave his face for him 😳 Moon is so gentle though I was so impressed lol

[@bekastanfield]

I never thought I’d get emotional over a rug, but watching you get to rug cuddle on your OWN rug that you created was such a beautiful, full circle moment. 🥰

[@mshockey73]

I love love love your new kitchen. It has a great island vibe to it. It just melted my heart when Moon said, Happy Birthday!

[@MrKate]

Thank you Cheryl!!

[@sharonmurphy6057]

Wow, I am soooo happy for your continued blessings. You have a lot of product lines coming up and can't wait to see them all. Kitchen looks beautiful, bright and airy. Perfect for your families personalities. Moon is simply adorable!!!

[@CallMeM1107]

This came together beautifully 😍 💕 I never can picture how a color that I really dislike could be an amazing shade for an important section like the kitchen. But you always amaze me with the outcome. Can't wait to see what else you come up with.

[@shivampandey2334]

This whole renovation series is making me feel like they are alone on an island doing all these cool diys

[@p1aslifee793]

Omg! Why am i so obsessed with this Series?! Can anyone relate ?

[@erinmckenzie923]

I didn't think I would like the painted fridge, but I actually love it so much now!

[@erikaleighart]

1) You and your husband make a great creative team. Your ideas and how well you execute them is consistently impressive. 2) Moon is so blessed to have you both as parents. I enjoy your videos and your positive energy. Thank you as always for sharing!

[@CatherineAKennedy]

I love that you still have the stone benchtop... I smile at mine against glossy white kitchen cabinets that were a fabulous combo in the 80s - the stone is the most efficient and durable bench top that I've ever had in my home - while I love stainless steel, production is so horrifically damaging to the environment - but so is paint, etc...

[@ashleydean261]

I absolutely love everything y’all have done so far. Everything is coming together beautifully. 🥰

[@kaceywasson3307]

I don’t know why I ever question Kate’s choices because they always exceed my expiations by a million!!!!

[@josieloveyou2624]

Moon seems so content and happy in every video. Does he ever have a bad day? I think he stays busy “helping” with all the projects

[@Sunflowers9191]

Every child has bad days haha. But keeping him real busy by doing physical stuff and not just sitting in front of a tv or iPad definitely helps :)

[@womanofacertainage5892]

THAT KITCHEN THO! Loving your new wallpaper so much, and the colorful house overall! Brava! Also love that you show a kitchen makeover for under $700 or so! Thank you!

[@youwishbunnyfish]

Kate and Joey and Moon, you guys are family goals for me! My son in 16 months old and I love watching the way you raise Moon and try to do the same thing. Letting him have the freedom to be himself, help out with renovations and painting. I'm so excited to see how your island home grows and evolves! My family and I are about to move into our first home and I'm so excited to renovate :) :)

[@glue4125]

Love how this is a whole new aesthetic!!

[@MrKate]

Yay!!

[@AmericanWoman11]

I have no clue how a pink kitchen can work, but you just did it. its not over the top. its just beautiful. I never would think you could paint your fridge! BRILLIANT!

[@donnabenson1436]

Loving the kitchen... Its perfectly beautiful for your new home.... I just love how much Moon loves joining in with the DIY.... His idea for the Christmas tree 🎄 awww bless.... Just can't wait now for the next blog....love you guys xxx❤️❤️❤️ from across the pond here in UK 🇬🇧

[@shelly_rae]

Kate and joey know what they are doing when it comes to colors!! They do an amazing job! I am not gonna lie I thought I wouldn't like the pink in the kitchen but it totally works even with the wallpaper added and updated fridge amazing!! Mr kate can do anything make it look phenomenal

[@paulaw3357]

Love the wallpaper. Add some seashells and other “beachy” items along with the popsicles for a very cool tree. Can’t wait to see it

[@angelmooncloud]

The kitchen just looks more ALIVE and I love it so much!!!! So many soft pinks and peaches and ugh!!! Just so beautiful 🥹🥹🥹

[@aminagupta667]

I love your creativity and your thoughts and your way of sustainable yet amazing ways of life❤️

[@luciarojas9195]

I love how much Moon is learning. This is better than any kindergarden or school. and I say it as an educator. Awesome.

[@bonesonstones1]

While so many DIYers are going full-fledged MCM and hideous 70s colors, you guys are CRUSHING it with these beautiful, happy colors. I am so happy you're back ❤️

[@aksez2u]

MCM? Urban dictionary says "Man-Crush Monday" LOL 😂🤣

[@bonesonstones1]

@@aksez2u mid-century modern, it's so trendy right now ... I hate it!

[@aksez2u]

@@bonesonstones1 Oh! Thanks for clarifying! It's certainly not everyone's taste.

[@alittlebitofjessica]

DIYers are so quick to jump on trends. Last year, everything was “boho”, now everyone is trying to do mid-century (I personally like an authentic MCM design, not this washed out version we see most DIYers try to replicate), and in the end no one is courageous enough to have their own style. Mr. Kate has such a unique personality and it shows through her designs.

[@bonesonstones1]

@@alittlebitofjessica That's a great way to put it, and truly, all DIYers I had in mind followed this exact path oh boho --> mcm/weird 70s combo. I mean, to each their own, I'm glad when people enjoy their spaces, it's just no fun to watch the same weird trend on all the channels.

[@beab1359]

Omg this turned out so great!!! Also pro tip! Doing papier mache with flour and water works best with newspaper and the consistency has to be like pancake batter only sliiightly more runny. Takes longer to dry but you get great results! I’m a pre-school teacher and I’ve found this is also the safest for little ones if you want to diy with Moon 😁

[@karencheever5007]

I wish you posted more often! I am so excited to see all you do to your new home!! keep on keeping on!! love you videos!

[@susishearer9531]

Love, love, love the kitchen and your new wallpaper!! So bright and happy and gorgeous. I love that you include Moon in your projects and conversations. You all look so healthy, happy, and adorable. Don't stop doing what you do!

[@JohannaHertzman]

It looks so good! And honestly, Moon's stealing the show and I'm here for it.

[@nayaef736]

Kate reminds me of my mom trying to paint pieces of furniture and buy a few things to give it a different vibe etc. Last time she took apart the entire kitchen (dark wood) and painted it all white! It took forever to dry, and a few coats, but it was a different room by the end. I love your videos guys, so glad you are back! I also pass on the ideas to my mom, she finds them really helpful (she doesn't have a KZbin acc, or watch a lot of KZbin in general).

[@erlandatugaw8883]

I've got allllll the tropical feels, right now! Nice job!!

[@pasi-fourmylewifey1491]

I love how you both naturally include your son into your work flow. It is so beautiful to see. And how you guys build on his 💡 ideas. So precious😍I love your diverse style! You are so unique and your style is one-of-a-kind! Your creativity has no limits and you thrive on challenges! You are a type of person that is easy to remember, you're personality is such a breath of fresh air. I hope I don't come off as creepy. I just admire you, look up to you, and enjoy watching your videos. You inspire my creativity and light a spark in me to be a better mommy and house wife. Your videos are easy to binge watch. And I always want to see more. Keep up the hard awesome work! God continue to bless you and yours

I love the 🏝 island vibes inside n outside the home! The colors are very warm n welcoming and I’ve never seen a refrigerator make over..interested to see how that holds up n the table makeover! I live in the city but I love going to the beach and basking in it ALL!!! Retirement vibes for me…sun, sand, ocean and mountain surrounded by so much bright n beautiful foliage!! Enjoy! 🙏🏽☮️💟😊☀️🙏🏽

[@akeeliamanning2666]

I am in love with this kitchen.😍

[@jey.1024]

I've been thinking for a while that your house looks super retro, but I didn't know from what decade. It just dawned on me when I saw your yellow fridge that its SUPER 50s/60s (but with a modern twist) and I love it!! The 50s had super colorful appliances, like the Frigidaire refrigerators, which is why your pastel fridge reminded me of the 50s and how colorful houses used to be back then. I'm so excited for this house!

[@christinaz.271]

the kitchen looks PHENOMENAL!

[@michellepereira2328]

I like the kitchen refresh. The color of the cabinets and fridge look great with the wallpaper. The rug looks like a practical idea for floor decor.

[@denisepaul7274]

Love the popsicle tree idea, Moon!!!

[@arinemiko]

That kitchen is so fun! Bright but still a comforting vibe - not over stimulating. Obsessed with moon’s little voice. Omg so precious!

[@CahRonsanii]

the kitchen looks like it came out of a Barbie beach house i love it

[@angelabowman1614]

Love the colors! The Refrigerator color is very pretty, like pale cantaloupe or peaches......the pinkish cupboards with those cool white and silver handles, very feminine and tropical. The wallpaper.....very retro and great color combinations! That white and gold cabinet.... beautiful! The open shelving is nice, with the cups and glasses. Looking very nice! 😊👍

just out of curiosity, how much are you planning on keeping permanently vs getting rid of once you get the permits? like i assume you'll reno the kitchen and floors? what about the furniture?

[@jewleeb5138]

I was very skeptical about the color in the kitchen and painting the fridge. Now I am so excited about the outcome. Wow beautiful kitchen…I’m slowly learning how not to be afraid of color.

[@Mtsiatini]

LOVE Love LOVE!! And the new Mr Kate rug is AMAZING!! 🙌🏼🎂😂🥰 Can't wait for more!! The only thing I would do different is switch around the coffee and toaster/snack stations. Usually a bf/snack station needs more prep space and a coffee station stands better on its own 😉 Stay Safe ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

Woah ! That fridge came out soo cool! Feel like the benches would look cool with white marble, using that stick on vinyl stuff. But what’s on at the minute is super cool too !

[@kikiraltefanai3952]

[@theadventuresofzoomandbettie]

That turned out great! We've REALLY struggled to get a fridge we want in any colour other than black or silver, which doesn't match our 50's aesthetic - so this painting of the fridge idea has opened up possibilities!! We've got a small retro one for now, which matches the vibe, but not the size we want, and I really want a water/ice dispenser in the door which you just cannot get anywhere in any other colour than black or silver! Thanks for the inspo!

[@properandlovely]

The kitchen looks incredible!! That fridge color is so pretty. I envy people with the talent to just put something like this together and make all the colors work.

[@rudychon1146]

The pink/peachy kitchen isn't bad. The gals from the June Motel did a peachy blush kitchen too and it worked, so I don't think this is terrible. It's cute and probably temporary until you guys can reno.

[@kourtneemarisa9716]

I’m a very creative person and i love mixing colors. When Kate explains her ideas i have a hard time trying to picture it and a lot of the time I’m like ehhh Kate you sound crazy lol. Then you see the finished product and omg it’s absolutely beautiful it’s so funky and colorful and welcoming. I love it! When Joey says you just gotta trust Kate he’s 100% correct lol. Joey is just as creative too but you can see that he loves to see the creative gears moving in Kate’s mind 🥰🥰 you have such a beautiful family!! I didn’t get to see you renovating your previous house when you bought it but i do get to see you do your new home and i am beyond excited!!!
