Oh my goodness what a triumph the cabinets are! Defo they look so much better painted it really shows off the beautiful styling pieces you have placed in them. The upcycled vases etc look amazing and it just goes to show you dont need to spend a fortune on expensive things to achieve a very nice high end look! You and your sister are very clever I just love watching you both with your creative ideas and doing your makeovers x

[@sue1016]

Well im speechless, cabinets look great, i think with the map and gold photo , put map other side of coral and photo where map was, love the idea of connection with book and items you are clever apryl , have fun playing around with bits youre not sure of and see you in the next video ❤

[@patriciastrange4377]

How lovely your bookcases are your styling is amazing you and sydd really are talented you should be interior designers xx another great video you girls have very interesting content xxxxxx

[@dags6887]

Love the cabinets, yes so much better painted inside. Lovecyour upcycling pieces xx

[@annijewiss3142]

Hi Apryl, what a difference you have made to the cabinets by painting inside, lights and knobs. When you panned round from your dining table it honestly looked like a magazine page, so stylish. I loved it all apart from the vase that when wrong, to late now but I didn’t mind the pattern on it I would have just pained it but hay ho it’s all a learning curve 😂. I’ve got the moss balls they did look a bit big but now they are on the bottom shelf I think they look good. The ship decanter type vase is a beautiful shape. You amaze me with your talents just wish you wouldn’t paint on your sofa or dining table my heart is in my mouth incase you get paint on them 😅. Wish you and Sydney a great week, see you next Sunday xx

[@user-ew6es8bh9l]

[@sarahpugh749]

Hi, just started following you. Love the bookcases, you are very creative and have great style. Like the pop of greenery, on the left, perhaps introduce green on the right. Thank you for sharing.

[@jeanwalker3752]

Hi Apryl and Syd, what a great video. Apryl you did such a good job making your lounge look so lovely. All your upcycles worked perfectly. You are both so talented and I can’t wait to see next week’s vlog. See you soon.xxxx

[@julienacey5047]

So happy to see someone upcyling ..so much good stuff goes to landfill .just think how much you are helping the planet ...forget about the brown sisters. What about the eco warrier sisters 😂 keep up the good work

[@karennadin8907]

Love the cabinets. Swop the black candle sticks with the small round brass picture frame, see if that looks better.

[@deborahharrison9401]

Hi your lounge is lovely but very block colour maybe some nice classy cushions 😂

[@TheBrownSisters.]

Lots of new cushions are on the way 👌🏻😍! Got a real mixture of patterns and styles so that will definitely help. It definitely needs more colour- going to try and incorporate some more blue tones 😍❤️

[@jakefrank8167]

Love them! Put some trim around your window seal will elevate the space more

[@louiseeedy9909]

Aw your units look amazing April. I love that print its been in my basket for a while as i want to replace a canvas from dunelm i have. I might order it now ive seen how it looks xx

[@user-oz5wz9ux8h]

[@elliefurnival5141]

They look so good! 😍 please can I ask what the name of the farrow & ball paint sample is? Thanks 😊xx

[@zepurekrikorian5252]

I liked the original vase better ❤ I didn't particularly like the new look🤷‍♀️

[@TheBrownSisters.]

That’s absolutely fine, the world would be boring if we all liked the same thing ❤️😘

[@zepurekrikorian5252]

​@@TheBrownSisters.I truly appreciate your kindness ❤🥰

[@davidfuller7327]

Whereabouts is this car boot in Reading please?

[@TheBrownSisters.]

It’s the Giant Car Boot in Taplow (Maidenhead way), so a little drive but it’s a good one ☺️

[@user-op6ej4rf2r]

Love the look but the picture looks upside down to me, possibly the angle I was looking at it. Lovely though

[@TheBrownSisters.]

I’ll try it the other way up and see what it looks like! 🩷🩷 xx

[@jillmiles8394]
