DIY EXTREME home office makeover (start to finish)

[@FangToh]

ROCHELLE IS SUCH A GOOD FRIEND! Remember when Kelsey had a flower watch party and her Wisteria didn't bloom so she DIY some with her mum even though nobody told her to? The Internet needs to protect her at all costs!

[@SamiLoft]

omgggg yes

[@reeverb07]

YES I love Rochelle!!! 😭

[@BenjamintheTortoise]

Absolutely.... She's a superhero!!

[@mikaelagoldkuhl]

Rochelle is the best ❤❤❤

[@Jj85741]

Rochelle has skill set way beyond what this channel has been able to showcase! You go girl!!

[@FangToh]

RIGHT!? Where have they been hiding her? She needs to be on wayyyyyy more often and she has really good tips too

[@TamarLitvot]

Yep. That really became clear with the Secret Santa exchange.

[@lovingmayberry307]

I think she and Becky are well matched. That coffee bar Becky installed in her house?? 👍👍👍

[@aksez2u]

Oh yes, I really learned a lot from her video making this desk, and I've been around a lot of DIY and construction.

[@thefrenchmode]

Aw, the kiss on your forehead to heal the booboo ... ❤ The space is beautiful Kelsey !

[@BenjamintheTortoise]

Totally agree... The space is beautiful and it's obvious how much you enjoyed doing this for him. You're a thoughtful partner. Much love to you both 💕😊

[@reeniepeenie]

Rochelle is literally so TALENTED!!!! Her ideas and fabrication are next level! We see you girl!!!!

[@myrnashoults9735]

Loved the desk, but still can’t get over the till she made for the craft fair, BLEW MY MIND!

[@fewaldow]

This is beautiful! Sorry for your fall, hope you are doing better now, Kelsey! One strong suggestion: Curtains on the window for better view of the monitors. It will ease Elliott's eyes (I don't know in English, but he can get "tired eyesight" if he is forcing his view too much to see the monitor). Even when the brightness is full, with sunlight sometimes it's not enough and he can get headaches.

[@Leslie-wb8cb]

Eye strain is real! Paper shades would be just fine.

[@vickinoeske1154]

I was thinking Roman shade.

[@GothicMaximalist]

That’s a smart and thoughtful idea!

[@hadiy101]

Agreed, I’ve had my desk against a window before and as nice as it is to look outside it can really start to hurt your eyes!

[@evicaf4e]

I was thinking that the whole time..and yes as someone mentioned roman shades are very nice for this kind of purpose.

[@Sookielein]

Rochelle is so talented and such a sweetheart!

[@OrganizeCreateDecorate]

Kelsey, I'm so sorry about your fall. I'm glad you had yourself checked out. Take care. The office looks great. You girls make a great team!

[@lyssar10]

I’m so glad to see that Kelsey is doing okay after hitting her head. Concussions are no joke. It’s always ALWAYS better to be safe rather than sorry when it comes to head trauma. Kudos on the amazing makeover! Kelsey and Rochelle really did amazing work on this one!

[@tinysealooter]

The care package made me tear up! So sweet gotta love a work family taking care of their own! Love the new office! Great colour story!

[@concharodriguez5909]

Oh my god, the moment I saw her falling my heart stopped. I'm glad Kelsey is ok. Love the make over, love the desk, as always you did a great job!

[@destinypurnell2102]

Lol random, but you can tell Kelsey’s love language is gift giving/ acts of service because between this video and the movie room she just is always so excited to show her boyfriend. Love that for her.

[@sazennonumber]

I actually teared up when I saw the care pack that Rochelle prepped for you... and she drove you!!!! I want a friend like Rochelle. 🥺 Sorry you had that accident, Kelsey. The new office really looks cute. I don't know why, but it made me remember NY. Lovely!

[@gangewifre]

Kelsey you knocked it out of the park! Rochelle is such a rockstar for that desk, it's such a great piece! I've been loving how you've been pushing more moody colors, and as soon as the paint came out I gasped in DELIGHT! I'm so glad you got your head checked out as well, concussions are no joke. Congrats on another amazing space.

[@TrustLynn27]

I’m so emotional, I’m so glad to see Kelsey in such a good relationship and Rochelle being such a good friend. Love u guys! Growing up with u feels like we’ve been lifelong friends 😭

[@SherriSenel]

That desk was killer! The legs and the corner shape turned out amazing together!

[@megancampbell3914]

very realistic use of odd spaces for a lovely office.

[@JL11775]

Well done, Kelsey, and kudos to Rochelle for the beautiful desk!

[@candybrooke22]

I love the brown wall, gotta keep a color scheme throughout the whole house. it's the brown fireplace I'm still trying to get onboard. Your style is so awesome and unique, so we keep an open mind for you!

[@katelester5625]

While I still don’t fully understand why his office is in the kitchen rather than one of the other rooms upstairs, you really did a lot with this space! It looks great. Opening up that one cabinet to create some open shelving made a surprising amount of difference

[@mandymyname1]

My guess is it is because of the window

[@jethor4561]

I love this, especially the brown paint! One thought i had - you could build a little removable wooden box over the stove top (like people do with gas stoves in small places) and I think it would add another nice touch. Anyhow, this was a great example of doing more with the spaces you have.

[@imtoolazyyyy]

I wanna see a Rochelle + her momma vid, show us your collective creative PROWESS!! She consistently SLAYS IT and the care package omg 😍😍

[@GothicMaximalist]

I love the brown paint color, it’s gorgeous and rich! And I really dig the way you painted across the window trim, something about it scratches my brain right lol. Don’t worry about us the fans liking or disliking the paint, you are doing it for him, not us, he has to like it and you picked a color you knew he’d like :)

[@theglamourghoul5308]

This makeover was a homerun! Even the dark chocolate paint looked great. It pulled everything together. And that desk, wow!

[@danielleboon1543]

A tip for painting headboard: if you get a roller sleeve with a longer nap, it’ll have a much easier time getting into those grooves

[@beccaa2919]

Genius idea to use the white strips from the wallpaper to cover the holes

[@angelahudspeth4951]

At this point I think we can all agree that when it comes to Rochelle and her unending talents, not all heroes wear capes

[@quadbox]

Everyone needs a Rochelle in their life: talented, creative, intelligent, caring. 😍✨

[@bripatrick]

Omg I’m SO happy you went & got medical attention! Head injuries are no joke … you can feel totally fine for hours after the impact and then disaster can strike. Take care!!!

[@heatherflynn8725]

Turned out very nice. The bittersweet chocolate color on the added a warmth to the space. And the desk that Rochelle made is beautiful.

[@HeavensSmile_]

Hello dear👋 , how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe

[@nutz13_]

i watched the desk build and i was so HYPE for this video!!! Great job, I love how this turned out :) Also i hope you're ok Kelsey! Concussions are serious business, i deal with post-concussive syndrome from a rugby incident 6 years ago and it affects my every day life..

[@shellsisacoolpear]

I suffered a concussion in oct '22 and that winter started noticing some things tasted different or badly, your comment made me look into post concussion syndrome and change of taste and smell can be one and I feel like I finally figured it out.

[@diannevala9926]

Can we appreciate how both of them have matching colour tops AND it’s also matching the new office colour! Love it🤎

[@melissaleejohnson3542]

Kelsey!! I never realized those curtain clips were to create pleats! I’ve been using them incorrectly for YEARS, thank you thank you for showing me the light.

[@michaelarowan4174]

You should make a nice wooden burner cover for the stove top with a matching stain to the desk. That could tie the office corner colors to the kitchen space and make the surface area of the stove more usable while it's not utilized for cooking. Also would make the whole space a little less kitchen-y.

[@Dittygirl89]

IKEA sells white plugs for shelf-holes. We used them on our glass-doored cabinetry

[@meganking2205]

Personally, I’ve always subscribed for concussion care content (and D.I.Y. on the side) but glad to have a reminder 😅

[@suzy1676]

Awesome job to Kelsey's and Rochelle's mad skills!❤

[@debramackinnon8094]

I screamed when you fell. The office looks great. Rochelle is so talented!!

[@HeavensSmile_]

Hello dear👋 , how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe

[@beverlydust5381]

Kelsey, hope that you are feeling better now .Hope Elliot likes his new work space.

[@mirrorcleworld]

Rochelle is such a treasure.

[@jeanettekakareka]

Also having seen Elliott in many a video now, I think it definitely comes across how much he loved the makeover!! 🥰 Yay for giving partners surprises!

[@TamarLitvot]

The brown in this room looks great! Rug is just right. It's a beautiful redo of the space and Rochelle's desk is just amazing! I have many types of plants but my pothos is special -- goes back to a beloved older cousin, one of the few in her generation who escaped before WWII. She was minimally educated but smart and incredibly kind. She gave me the pothos that all the rest have come from (my grown kids all have plants from it). The pothos is a survivor, just like her. So appreciate Elliott's plants!

[@neurospicypisces]

The brown on the walls is gorgeous. Why does everyone hate rich dark brown?! Greige gotta goooooo guys. No more taupe! Let brown have its moment.

[@loissaedder2214]

I love that brown. And like you said, the only thing that matters is that Elliott loves it. Hello from Queensland

[@margodoyle8076]

The brown looks fantastic! And the desk turned out beautiful 🤩

[@jejrstans]

Love the brown! Love the desk! Love the styling! NICE!

[@itsGabrielaCristina]

I am Rochelle's #1 fan

[@louismeyer5132]

Its lovely that you did a surprise makeover for your partner. I liked it, the colours are masculine, go with the existing kitchen but still looks dramatic.

[@LarrietDarling]

idk about everyone else, but I love the color brown! It's a good color.

[@ktk2094]

I'm glad you're okay after your fall. I've almost done that myself (gone down the wrong side). The office looks great. Did Elliot notice how clean his Dutch oven is?

[@donnaregenauer2757]

Hello from KY love you and your channel ❤️.Kelsey it is amazing what love can do.Just a wonderful make over❤

[@dominikap-a9323]

That chocolate paint looks stunning!

[@serendipityawaits4768]

SO glad you went the clinic! I LOVE that Elliott is such a great plant parent!

[@Shooshoobella7]

Everything turned out amazing! Kudos to you Kelsey and Rochelle for your vision and hard work in bringing this space together. It looks, fresh, modern, cozy and professional all at the same time. Glad you're OK, Kelsey and that Elliot loved and appreciated it. So sweet of Rochelle to send you that care package. The love and friendship you all share really warms my heart. ☺

[@nataliemellick8579]

Omg please don't apologize for using brown or green ever!!!! Those are my colors girl 🙏😍

[@CandidlyToni]

Can Rochelle get an At Home Series like you and Becky? I think that’ll be dope. Girl that fall is my worst fear! The office turned out nice. I don’t hate the brown like the bathroom brown. It’s not too bad! And I’m all for Elliot propagating his pothos. Us plant parents will propagate our pothos.

[@CaliMel184]

Honestly I don't blame you for not ripping out the kitchen. That would be A LOT of demo, and the kitchens already there. It works. It exists. It seems wasteful to completely undo the work you did to change it. I love when people work with what they have done instead of just... ripping out everything every single time they need the space to do other things too. The brown wall color is great! It's nice to break up all the white everywhere. and Brown IS a color! Put a shelf above the window? You could fit more plants on there and they would drape nicely over the window. Especially the vine ones.

[@racheliannucci4720]

I've always loved brown! You go girl!!

[@bluebeanbaby]

ROCHELLE IS THE PRINCESS OF PINE, I SAID IT. I LOVE HER AND SHE MUST BE PROTECTED AT ALL COSTS. Her talent is untouchable and her heart is like so warm and kind. She is the best. I am an OG Sorry Girl fan and she is a highlight for me over these years. Anytime. I see her pop up I'm psyched. ❤Rochelle I wrote this a couple videos back but I await the design launch with excitement...get on it😅😊

[@apappl07]

That whiteboard idea is brilliant! The monochrome makes it look sophisticated and expensive.

[@itscarolinemary]

Rochelle you need to start a custom furniture business, that desk is so good! ❤‍🔥

[@Naamisonbekend2]

O my I hope your head is better now Kelsey! And you did an excellent job designing and make-overing this space❤! Also amazing desk Rochelle 👌, I also love the brown and green with all the plants 😄

[@juleslovesbooks6904]

Glad you went to the walk in, a head injury is nothing to ignore!

[@memphis2375]

Kelsey I love the chocolate brown! Rochelle you do such beautiful work! And you’re an awesome friend!

[@natachar9635]

Watching you sweep the floor on your knees instantely brought me back to your first office and that crazy old vaccum your guys had there !!

[@nohandle508]

Rochelle knocked it out of the park!

[@toriam15]

Very nice space. The brown wall goes well with the office vibe, and Rochelle's work on the desk is 🔥. Great job everyone!!!

[@caesar98]

The makeover was really lovely and such a sweet thing to do for Elliott! Also I'm happy that Kelsey is okey, concussions aren't a laughing matter even if they're light. I've have had two concussions in my life and the last one was pretty bad to the point that I should've taken a sick leave. What I noticed is: dark rooms, no screens, quiet and some light but heart raising exercise is good for the noggin. Don't know how long ago this was but I hope she's feeling better.

[@dmmomma]

Two things! I love what you've done. Great job! Here is an SBI (sathingly brilliant idea) Have you ever heard of a dough board? They're everywhere now!make one for the stove top (which is what they were originally created for), giving you more counrer-type space and a place to knead your dough! It would be another way to camouflage the kitchen into an office. Again, great job!

[@nixi-bixi]

I use an ikea LÄMPLIG chopping board on top of my gas stove in my small kitchen for more surface space. The chopping board is large, fully covers the stove and has a lip that covers the raised grate section.

[@karaitskara]

@@nixi-bixi I bought two huge floor tiles and use them to cover my gas stove. I figure it's more fire safe.

[@martamanfrin5675]

Love the makeover and love how sweet it all is. You could tell how much you really wanted to make it right for him and I love how sweet you were to each other. And how sweet Rochelle is 🥰

[@teresacamp3365]

Rochelle hit home with that desk ! Love the whole make over you always amaze and inspire me! Elliott was surprised and you could tell he truly loved it and will enjoy it.

[@gulyasnefarkasrita2917]

I LOVE that paint color!... (I mean the brown on the wall.) This is my hubby's favorite too. 😉

[@Chantal_4107]

Ouch, that fall was not fun, glad you were okay. I find the dark brown works well as an office space, but it really does contrast how light and bright the kitchen looked when it was white. But like you said, if it's to be used as a kitchen again, it can be repainted easily!

[@iabelanger]

I like how you are being real on your channel and showing all the fails as well as all the successes. You rock!❤🎉

[@thesimofalltrades3703]

So glad you're okay Kelsey

[@lougreene-winters2172]

Aww Kelsey! This is such a beautiful surprise makeover and display of love and friendship. I love the browns!!

[@mssaylav1]

I’m so glad you’re ok. Shout out to Rochelle, gurl you be doing it 💯

[@michaelajones8015]

LOVE THAT BROWN!

[@Scarlet-qg1xi]

Rochelle ROCKS!

[@BoudicasQuest]

that sneak of yours was perfection [ chef's kiss ]

[@er8071]

On a positive note it aesthetically looks great, functionally i hope it works out

[@lovingmayberry307]

Looks awesome! Great job! Glad you're ok, K!

[@evepaludan7713]

I watched the corner desk video and it was fabulous and now, I see it all coming together and it is amazing! I don't know if anyone has talked about this, but the music transitions and action-overs are great. Someone really knows what they are doing when they pick the music to keep the viewer engaged during the non-talking parts. Kudos to the videos lately, really leveled up to perfection!

[@hiitsjess4703]

I actually liked this brown, in this room, for this space. The window brings in lots of light and since it’s a cooler shade of brown it doesn’t give off 💩vibes. 👏🏼 to Rochelle for that amazing desk.

[@lacepaws499]

Kelsey you always go above and and beyond for content! Geeze Girl!! Honestly hope you are well. Awesome room!

[@deborahlundy6892]

Rochelle is such a good friend I am glad we are starting to get to know her. She is so talented.

[@bry7487]

That brown is GORGEOUS. I even love the toilet colour.

[@YasminMR]

I mean, I could watch Kelsey paint an entire house brown and wouldn’t bother at all! Love you girl! Hope your doing better. Also loved Rochelle’s desk! ❤❤

[@alizenero7522]

Kelsey painting everything brown in defiance to show the internet that she’s gonna win this. 😅

[@Dynsdead]

Rochelle is the sweetest person on earth 🤍 and she is so talented !!!!

[@shereeralph3802]

SOOO GOOD! Kelsey, I love the “Bittersweet Chocolate” paint colour - you pulled this off brilliantly - concussion and all.

[@amberharris4504]

Making Home is one of my all time favorite series on this channel!

[@amyybaby]

It looks soooo good!!! Much warmer and welcoming! Elliot is a lucky dude!!

[@ruthiebee6139]

I love it, brown and all❤.

[@noorarahimi1498]

Love the plants babies 😊

[@manonguinchard5829]

I love the brown wall !

[@lir9875]

I love the brown, I think the fact that it's such a dark brown helps. Elliot is a lucky guy.

[@Jalice15]

I’m kind of loving the brown paint on the walls I think it’s the perfect vibes for the room😍

[@Birdieinthecity]

Love this and I LOVE the wall colour x

[@mellie4174]

Love it. Just gorgeous.

[@sailorallie9046]

Gorgeous!!! Elliot’s a lucky guy to have you making over his office space ❤
