DIY Mermaid Bedroom on a Budget - Before and After Room Tour

[@meredithsimpson3199]

You do such a wonderful job of making your children's rooms unique and special. They will always remember that. You're a good Mom.

[@juliekeenum2824]

What little girl wouldn't love a mermaid bedroom. It was so adorable. Mom to the rescue again. Your kids are so blessed to have such an awesome and crafty mom. 💖💖

[@bethardin2016]

Firstly, adorable bedroom reveal. Secondly, we are never ready to put down our beloved fur babies. All we can do is be ready for the right time to have it done. God bless your sweet kitty.

[@MrsCMH]

I have been a quiet subcriber for years. I just wanted to let you know that you have been such an inspiration for me. I love how imperfectly perfect you are. I put on a playlist of yours when I'm cleaning in the morning and you keep me motivated to bless my home and I'm done in much less time and am in a much better mood when I'm finished so thank you for all you do.

[@Clutterbug]

Thank you :)

[@hmhhvf]

Christian Harris exactly my feelings

[@hmhhvf]

ClutterBug you're awesome really

[@CouponStar]

Christian Harris I JUST said today to a Mom at my kids school.. I watch this KZbin channel to get motivated.. blah blah lol. It's sooo true! ❤

[@twilightlacedream4717]

Thanks for being such a good pet parent. I know how hard it is when you have a sick or old pet. It's not easy. She is lucky to have your family. Love the room !!!!

[@queenofkings6030]

You did a great job on this room and the other one. You are so fun to watch, real and down to Earth. People who aren't pet people will never understand pet owners love for their pets. We are never ready to say goodbye. Enjoy the time you have.

[@CJ-qj3pk]

Love your little girl's room. Love your story about your cat. I understand your pain and the grief to come. Just a few months ago we had to do what was right for our cat. So hard, so hard. Bless you for keeping her and bless her little kitty heart too!

[@relayniedarcy]

Your baby sounds adorable. I say enjoy her as long as she wants to stay around. It sucks to lose them, but they sure bring a lot of love to your life.

[@purplepixie274]

Good on you for caring for her all this time, despite her difficulties, lots of us would have given up ages ago. The room is beautiful x

[@farmhousechronicles9586]

We rescued our first cat when she was about four years old. She was grumpy to almost everyone until she died at 19. We loved her anyway and I know she appreciated having a good home. Good for you for loving her despite the derp. So glad she's feeling better.

[@rujankatjac]

This is absolutely adorable and budget friendly. Makes me wish I had a little girl again. She's all grown up and has three little boys. Thanks for all your inspiration.

[@Cmartin621]

anybody else sometimes skip to the end when your having a bad day and need a good laugh. I always go back and watch the beginning but sometimes I just can't wait !! you are my favorite btw!!!!!

[@christinawhite9256]

You guys made Abby so happy!!! Fantastic work with a lot of ingenuity!!! I understand the thoughts you are having about your kitty. It is just a part of pets as they get older. God bless!!!💕

[@taniaeitel7623]

Both the girls rooms turned out beautiful. As a cat lover, I just love their quirky personalities, I'm glad you get to have yours around a little longer.

[@masue6726]

Oh wow what a beautiful enchanting room for a young lady! Very creative! Loved the cat story!!! The cat came back...you thought she's was a goner...but the cat came back😀👍glad she came back to life...❤️

[@Clutterbug]

Lol...Thank you :)

[@zulmaguinto4175]

Thank you for making us a part of your life, by telling us a little more about your stories. I always stay till the end

[@leezasims1644]

Love how grateful your kids are for their rooms. You have Abby and izzy and my daughter is Abi izzy x love that coincidence x love your room designs. Pure talent. Take a bow x extra credit creating such a nice space on a tiny budget.

[@sabrinakinnick1246]

Beautiful job! I understand the old pet thing. One of my fur babies is 18 and he's half blind, deaf, randomly barks at nothing and marks everything. However he's the best dog we have ever had so we tend to baby him. He still happy and that's all that matters to me. I'm sooo excited to see Milo's room. My daughter is into super heroes and it should be interesting how you do it. You do beautiful work!!

[@volschick2004]

Her room is so pretty! Perfect grown up mermaid room!

[@melodykidd6707]

Omg the room was beautiful I have watched a few of your videos but this one tugged my heart mister is beautiful. Enjoy these last times with her! We had a dog for 13 years and had to put her down last year and it was the hardest thing to do!! Bless you and mister!!

[@debbieross8407]

What a beautiful room! I love understated Disney decorating that doesn't scream DISNEY!!! at you. It's real life with a nod to the Disney brand, which I love. Tinkerbell is my personal favorite! But I especially love what you said about your cat. She's old, she's derpy as you say, but she's part of your family and cleaning up after her is what you do with your geriatric pets. I too have a 17 yr old cat, still going strong, but I know the time will come ( and I dread) the day she needs to be put down OH, but I live in CT, and we leave shoes on when visiting. But when I lived in NC, it was shoes off! Some kind of regional behavior, I guess. Personally, I like shoes off, but when in Rome... Thanks for your videos, love listening to you and watching all your great ideas!

[@cool-freezer]

Love Abby's bedroom reveal!!!!!!YOU ARE THE ONE TO DECIDE WHEN TO PUT DOWN YOUR PET.......NOONE ELSE!!!!!

[@JaimeLee0555]

Love the room! Love the wall color and I have the same color in my guest room! 😀 It makes me happy to hear how you take care of your elderly cat. I wish there were more animal lovers in the world. Your love and care is keeping her happy! 😸

[@annmargaret2106]

You're so talented!! What a lucky young lady and so precious to hear her cries of joy!! Beautiful

[@Debbie462]

Beautiful room!!! I hope your cat continues to feel well and you get to spend much more time with her. It is so hard when we have to let them go.

[@annwilloughby7607]

Don't pay any attention to ANY negative comments you know ur baby and you'll know when the time is when it comes because only u n ur family have that type of connection to determine if it is time or not! I love that u talked about ur baby! I have five babies and I just lost my dog about 7 weeks ago and it's very hard to lose them because they are as much a part of the family! Love ya keep it coming u are such a bubbly happy person and such a joy to watch!🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

[@loriharding9248]

Ann Willoughby so sorry about your dog. you are in my prayers

[@daughteroftheking4266]

Keep loving the kitty, they are the best! I love the big personalities they have and would do anything to keep mine with me as long as possible. I know how sad it be when that day comes even for your husband because they become family. Love the room super adorable.

[@thehomeschoolhive2109]

Beautiful room redo's, but the best part of this video is you sharing about your geriatric cat that you love. I admire you even more now.

[@kimmerrou]

Abby's reaction was great! Mister is beautiful- I am glad you get more time with her. ☺

[@maxinestorr2844]

Thank you for inspiring me to declutter.....oh my goodness I've decluttered to within an inch of my life! I can't believe I've kept such a load of rubbish over the years, even my husband has jumped on the bandwagon, we've a long way to go but my house is starting to feel so much lighter and I feel great about it. Thankyou again and keep keeping us inspired!

[@elegant0896]

The room turned out great! No negatives! Exactly! Love her and enjoy your time!

[@lindacurtis589]

Love how creative you were with Abby's room! Her reaction was awesome! Poor 16 yo Mister! Sounds like a real love! OMG, she likes Joe's hair! So funny! She lives another day...YEAH Mister! 🐾

[@SodaPopJX]

Those jellyfish lamps and the fishnet "bulletin board" are absolutely too cute!!!

[@evafeng8442]

LOVE the wall colour! it's fantastic to see your girls so delighted when they see their new rooms! Your craft projects are always so innovative and fun!

[@meganwhitney3911]

We are almost done with my daughter's mermaid room, and I may use some of your adorable finishing touches! Perfect timing! The blue walls and purple curtains for the win!

[@helenwarner6601]

I love your little stories at the end of the videos. It makes you relatable.

[@jessicakent4265]

the mermaid room is beautiful!!! You all did a great job! My boy is 20 yrs old now. I know the day is coming also and I'm not ready either. He sleeps on my head and drives me crazy but I love him too. 😊 Cheers to our old grumpy cats.

[@redbaby814]

I'm so glad I found another family that uses the word "derpy" to describe their pet. Our dog hasn't any extraordinary story of how he became a derp, but he just is. He's over 7 years old now, but he's a great family dog. I love the bedrooms you've done for your daughters. I have a 5 year old and we're just about to move back to the states, so I'm looking forward to giving her a great decorated room, with hopefully some of your tips :)

[@LissaMDecor]

Always stay to the end for the good stuff!

[@bodytechnician8507]

so inspiring!! Such a a dreamy bedroom for a little girl. Well done! Completely understand about your cat. My cat Coco was similar and lived to 22yrs and 9 months. Don't give up on her, they have 9 lives you know! Wish I could hug the kittie.

[@elaineramsay1948]

Your cat Mr is gorgeous. Well done for keeping her and loving her, you will know if/when the time comes to consider the alternative. Room makeover was fab, as usual. Thank you for sharing. 💕🐾💋❤️

[@donnav]

I loved your cat story! We used to have two cats and they had such unique and crazy ( but wonderful) personalities. Sometimes annoyed the hell out of us but we loved they anyways. Now we have a dog, a rabbit and seven hens. Crazy pants. Pets are wonderful!

[@loriharding9248]

Pretty kitty. Bless her heart and bless yours for attending to her needs😍

[@trishpacheco7586]

I love your stories, thank you for sharing. 😊

[@marissasharp9892]

I LOVE the way Abby's room turned out! I would want to be a little girl again just to have an awesome room like that! 😉 Aww, I'm glad your kitty still has some time with you. I had to put my beautiful tabby of 12 years down almost two years ago. It was hard, but I have so many good memories of her. I can't relate to those that don't love animals. Blessings! 💖

[@safepethaven]

I LOVE your beautiful 'Mister' cat! I have had MANY special-needs rescue cats; they are the BEST! And I lost my 18 y.o. cat to recent pathology but still have two cats that will be 20 yrs old on July 26th, and 19 yrs old in Nov, respectively. The rest of the herd are officially seniors as well.

[@cwong2310]

Wow! Her room is so pretty. great job, Cas.

[@MommaFromScratch]

You did fabulous job, looks wonderful! It look way more than 160 bucks yeah for having craft supplies on hand! Glad the cat is better than ever! Btw loving the bangs!

[@Clutterbug]

Thanks! We did already have all the bedding and furniture, so that saved a lot!

[@allisonhitt3845]

Oh how cuuuute! We just did a “big girl” mermaid room for my daughter and she’s loving it. Going to make these lantern jellyfish, she will go bananas for them!

[@kindperson1411]

The bedroom is adorable!!! I love how you come up with such neat and cute ideas that are budget friendly!! As for Mr. ....well I know how you feel and it's so heart breaking to let them go. I'm so glad she got better. She just used one of her 9 lives!!!

[@lynnvs6372]

Genius! I love doing girl room makeovers!! I love the order of this room and the white IKEA like cubby . And the desk could double as a makeup station when shes a bit older as well as a desk for homework

[@nelidaflores1286]

The mermaid room turned out so beautiful! Great job! About your cat, I feel it, I have my cat Fluffy and I love her so much. Blessings

[@yaffaa813]

Beautiful job on the room! My daughter is obsessed with Ariel, I'll probably be using some of these ideas for her room very soon!

[@BabyHomeandBeyond]

Loved your cat story. She is so lucky to have you. Most people wouldn't keep a cat that was 'unruly,' especially since you said she has been a little off pretty much her whole life. Yey for you! :)

[@debrajudd9850]

Abby’s room is adorable

[@aprilheise397]

We finally came to "that day" with my 16 year old cat last November. The vets came to the conclusion that he had cancer and we just let him live it out until he collapsed and wasn't okay/happy anymore. He had a good run and stole lots of food in his years with me.

[@margenek]

Genius! Seriously sweetest room ever...

[@nattalee8768]

you did amazing once again loved it....im doing my 5year old daughters room also cant wait to get it done just moved into my new house so just started but excited to complete it i did it before an i posted a picture an alot of people reached out beacuse they loved how i decorated her room so i cant wait maybe ill do a video an post it on youtube....your cat is gorgoues she will go when its her time when she is ready on her own. allow her go on her own its so touching shes happy being with her family an will go in peace seein her family around. god bless her. my mothers pitbull is 11 and i can only hope he gets to be a old doggy aound the house....same for my shichon she just turned one i hope she gets to live a long doggy life aswell. love animals.

[@annmcwilliams1230]

A dog or cat is for life you are doing great bed room fantastic wonderful vlog as always really enjoyed it.

[@maggiev5706]

"No negative comments about my baby!" Perfect ending! I just wanna share, I too had a cat for many years, she was with me from when I was about 7 to when I turned about 22 yrs old. But, she too got sick and was throwing up everyday and we had to make a decision. I have pictures of her and tell my daughters stories of all her hilarious antics. 😊😉

[@mkhappyfamily5835]

Aww... You are such a loving mom to Mister. She's so lucky to have you as her mom. She's too adorable !!! She looks like a kitten and most definitely doesn't look like she's 16 yrs old. You know everyone that we have crossed paths in our life ( family members including our pets ) we are destined to have, love and care for them. She's meant for you to love and care for this life ! Karma always have a way of paying us back, and most of the time it's not from someone that we did good/bad graces from. It will be from someone else or something else. You'll be rewarded by your good karma and your kind hearted. Also it's such a good example that you are setting for your children to experience. Even though Mister is disabled and can't do most things for herself you still never gave up on her. Instead you help, care and love her without hesitation on your end. You are making a great impact on your kids to become the most loving and kind hearted person. Who knows later in life we could be like Mister and we would never want our children or husband to gave up on us or don't love/want to care for us and think we are a burden to them. Please don't listen to anyone telling you to put her to sleep, she's still young at 16 yrs old my mom cat live up to be 31 yrs old. Just keep on loving, caring, being there for her like you do now then I am sure you and her will have lots more years together. Thank you for sharing this beautiful story of you and Mister. Thank you for being so loving and caring to Mister. Your loving personality never fail me. This is the reason why I love you even more!!! 😘 For Mister water situation you can get her a ceramic water fountain ( Has to be ceramic/glass bowl or else it will breeds bacterias NO plastic ) they sell at Petco or with your talent I am sure you can google how to diy it plus you can make a video about it on here too. I would love to watch that!!! Also You can add a tablespoon of organic apple vinegar the Braggs brand ( get at whole foods for $6 ) into the water bowl for her. Organic apple vinegar has so so many health benefits and wards off many diseases for our pets and us human you can research all about it. Another great thing you can do is add a teaspoon of organic coconut oil (get at Costco for real cheap $19 ) straight into her food and mix for many great benefits and wards off diseases as well. You can also springle some of the organic turmeric powder ( get at wholefood sell by the oz) straight to her food and mix them up will helps her with speedy healing any mishaps in her organs and internally and externally as well. All these 3 God sent ingredients; organic apple cider, organic coconut oil, organic turmeric powder are amazing to treat problems and can have them daily as vitamins as well because they are loads with tons of antioxidants and nutrients in them and will help our pets and us human. Please contact me if you have further questions I would love to help you and Mister. Love always, Kayla

[@randomstuffwithvicky]

Mister is beautiful. Love cats with personality. Also love the story of milo's persistence. 😁

[@Betrsafthensory]

Beautiful room and I'm glad your kitty is better. I have a black cat named Luey and we love him so much. He's about 6 months old.

[@PinkSallyProductions]

I LOVE the sound of your very individual cat 😊My 1st was up and down for the last 3year of his life, he still made it to 20yrs old! the vet always said that he would tell me when tell me when it was kinder to put him down than to keep him going, which he did. Kidney disease can cause all the symptoms that you talked about, which is what my cat had. medication kept him content & comfortable right up until the day before he died. Enjoy her while you have her! I'm sure Joe will miss her preening his head when she does pass on 😊🌹

[@mrs.lessofamess9418]

Mermaid- and cat-talk in one video? This must be my favourite one ever! 😄😍 I wonder if my husband would notice, if I turned our bedroom into a sophisticated mermaid theme... 🤔 I'm glad that Mister is feeling better. I have two 13-year-old cats that I adore. I hope they continue to be healthy for a loooong time! 😻😻🤞🏼

[@PiaJohannesen]

The room is to adorable 😊 Your cat is beautiful ! You are never ready to lose one's cat 😢

[@susanmunford821]

I love the jellyfish, you are really talented, can't wait for more.Cats are so crazy,I have two,one a total diva and the other a real scardycat .I love my babies too,keep her as long as possible.

[@susanlandin4485]

What a cute room! You are very talented, and I appreciate that your ideas are not costly!

[@abbiesmith7706]

Gorgeous room!!! I bet Abby is so happy! Bahaha. When I was a girl we had a cat that was vicious. She would climb trees in our yard and jump out on people's heads. Or attack legs from behind pots. And not just play and run off. She would legit draw blood. LOL. Her name was Rosa the Evil. She was our favorite cat. Ha. I am glad Mister is sticking around to spice up life and annoy your husband. 😂

[@aliciaunaryan4751]

Abby's bedroom looks so pretty & so inspirational. Great job guys Greetings from Port Elizabeth, South Africa

[@dilarayuceturk2739]

I just love ho you can do make overs in a tiny budget . I love your videos .

[@lilacbunny1501]

Wow I believe you can make decorating as a part time side job, because you have an eye for it, very nice😍

[@iamtasi2583]

my daughters room are those same colors. Wall color is slightly darker, more of a Tiffany color and her dresser she wanted lavender. Working on her desk now... Great ideas!

[@TheLadyoftheHouse]

You did such a great job! I love everything about this room! I really like those "Jelly Fish!" How cute! The perfect nightlight!

[@jjweiss2817]

Soooo love the mermaid room!!! You did an amazing job!!!! Good luck with your cat. What would our lives be like without the craziness of kids and pets!!! Probably boring. Tfs

[@lindatorres-lopez8306]

so awesome. you are very crafty and creative I just love both your girls rooms can't wait to see the rest of the rooms

[@ObxVaGirl]

Awwwww, I loved your Kitty story!! The things we do for our Furbabies!! 😍😍😍

[@MarRojasss]

I love my grumpy old cat man as much as you love yours. (He's 12) Our cats sound so similar, from the scratching & bitting to the only drinking from the sink part lol I'm so happy there's someone else out there that loves her kitty as much as I do lol even when my kids got scratched and people would tell me to get rid of him I never did. I rescued him for a reason, I will never give up on him no matter what. I'm so happy you didn't either ❤️ stay strong and hopefully our kitties stay with us a few more years🙏🏻😘

[@donnerdonner315]

I loved your kitty story about Mister.....I so can relate!!! My cat Princess is such a Diva (which is one of many nicknames she has) and does the whole drinking from the bathroom sink thing too!!! Mine is relentless and "yells" at me (aka: meow's SUPER LOUDLY) to get her way..... funniest thing ever!!! 🐈 Cat's are very strange and interesting pets....never a dull moment for sure!!! Enjoy her!!!! I sure do enjoy mine!!!

[@mayojar420]

I hope you get a few more months or years with your furbaby!! My dog is ancient (16) and he is this quiet, deaf (or pretends to be) and blind old pup but i cant bring myself to take him in. Good luck and loved the room! I had mine as little mermaid when i was 21! Lol

[@fishytopez4492]

You are amazing! I'm in the middle of painting my boys' room and it's taken me 3 days just to primer it. Ugh. It feels daunting to tackle a room redo. Great job on the room! Any little girl would adore it.

[@Clutterbug]

I hear you! I just painted the office, Izzy's room and Abby's room all in 3 days. I never want to pick up a paintbrush again!

[@jennelle9437]

I love it!!! So very pretty!!! (I'm redoing my guest bath in a mermaid theme.) I am such a animal lover, you can talk about your kitty for hours and I will love every minute of it!. 🐾🐾 I totally understand that bond with your fur babies. I have five pups. They are my heart. Four Pomeranians and a German Shepard. Thank you so much for sharing. Much love xoxo

[@imogenethomas1138]

Lots of cats live well into their 20s. There is a dry food formulation (I get it at Walmart) that keeps them from having hair balls. There is also a water bowl that works like a little fountain to give them running water. There are lots of little things you can do to keep her with you until you are both ready for her to move on. Good luck!

[@MEMcreative]

Ahhh! I love the fork on the sign!! Super cute room.... I mean sophisticated! 😉

[@MEMcreative]

Also, I hope everyone listened about the negative comments... you just love your "durpy" (spelling????) cat girl!

[@SpUnKyJustin]

I always love your content/ You make it attainable and budget friendly. But I always love your outro little tangents lol. I always feel like the pet will let you know and you will know when it is time. So people can save those comments.

[@CraftySherCupcake]

Love it, that blue paint is the bomb!!! So pretty!!! You did amazing with the small budget that you had! It turned out amazing!! 💕

[@Clutterbug]

I know, right? I am in love with this colour!

[@lifeonhuckleberryhill6052]

That room is AMAZING!!! Abby's delighted giggle was the best part, though. That was SO cute! And how completely endearing that you love your quirky kitty. I mean, let's be real, who isn't a little quirky, right? Some of us just let our quirks show more than others. ;)

[@wigglewomyn1]

Cas, you did an exceptional job on Abby's room. Any girl would love to have that room be theirs. i love your "rants" for those of us who stay until the end (who would leave with your heartfelt stories). I'm sorry that it's getting near the end for Mister. I hate when it comes to that time. I had to put my dalmatian to sleep 4 years ago today :( She was a sweetheart and yes, I believe they'll tell you when it's time. I'm happy that Mister got another 'life', so to shipshape. My thoughts are with you in the upcoming weeks and months. Looking forward to your next room reveal.

[@chrisrules1014]

So glad Mister has "recovered" lol. Poor Joe. I absolutely adore your videos, but your monologs at the end seriously CRACK ME UP! You make my day. :)

[@ashleybellamy3629]

We have an older cat too. She is 16 and deaf so when she meows, you can hear her 3 blocks away. lol She is always covered in litter and loves to sleep in my youngest sons bed. He calls the litter that she leaves behind kitty crispies.

[@anazechner5833]

I love your channel so much and listening to you talking about your kitty is like having a conversation with my best friend. I love your work and the fact that you are as normal as every one else who has biting cats LOL me included :-) I wish you lots of success with your channel. I will continue watching. xoxo

[@aveureaquest]

I love this one! You could have got also one of those sequin "mermaid pillows" which can change colour. I bought 2 for my daughter and it was a total success!!!

[@mikhail114]

I love your cleaning tips and I look forward to your stories at the end! Thanks for sharing.

[@mikejess007]

your channel is so relatable. love everything that you post!

[@megan5867]

I love it! I'm definitely stealing some of these ideas for my 5 year old's room! Thank you!

[@Cjo91391]

They'll let you know when they're ready....my baby boy (he's my profile pic) had to be put down this past September and he was 15 and I loved him. I went to my visit family and left him with my parents knowing he wasn't doing so well and when I came back after a week he hopped into my arms and just started at me. He was blind and started to drool but he was looking into my eyes and I could just tell he was ready. Animals bring so much fun and joy and stress and pain but they're amazing no matter what. I'm sure Mister is going to live longer than you'll expect! Beautiful room by the way!!!!!!

[@wildfreeabbymarie5992]

I'm 32 & my name is Abby! My favorite Disney Princess growing up was Ariel from the little mermaid! (Secretly... Ariel still is my favorite Disney Princess!) I had the 80's character bedding & curtains of the little mermaid! I absolutely LOVE the more grown-up version that you did to your daughter's room! Think I will have to do something similar to my little girl's bedroom! Just thought it was really cool that your daughter's name is Abby and her favorite Disney Princess is Ariel! ☺

[@greengiant3421]

The mermaid is beautiful!!!

[@raccoon_pawz]

I have a 17 year old dog who is mostly blind, hears very little, has few teeth and snores like a chainsaw but she still plays, runs around, and cuddles like a pup! If they are not suffering, let them live! Abby's room is beautiful!

[@Spot4art]

Bless you about that Cat! You are so right...we do for them as they need things done. They are family.
