English Country Charm How To Get The Look For Less

[@heleneyoung9631]

You made me laugh when you said..."but not me" because i use the same method. I am not a moulding purist and love the poly or foam faux mouldings. I just finished using that exact same chair rail trim where the wall meets the ceiling. It gave it such a nice clean line. Trick for me was to be patient while placing it along the level line. Money saving tip...peruse Temu! They have such affordable faux and wood trim pieces. You did a lovely job once again!

[@lynseysrecycledbliss1111]

Thanks so much, I tried Temu but got a terrible backlash from viewers…..never again ☹️

[@nancyguinn6550]

Love the color green as well. Keep up the lovely decor.

[@erin.v.m657]

"Everything in my house is wonky". My whole entire life. Lol. And it really should be that way. 😺 I do hope that you know how loved you are, and how many people are praying for you and your son. ❤

[@lynseysrecycledbliss1111]

Thank you so much , the outpouring of love and positivity is humbling, I am very grateful ❤️

[@candydonnelly7543]

Lynsey, 👏🎉👏🎉, Bravo, you are amazing! Your creativity is incredible, I am sure Ralph Lauren would smile. Finally, green has come into its own, experiencing nature inside our homes is so calming. What took so long? I sincerely hope you can pass on your creativity to one, or all of your grandchildren so they can experience the pleasure of creating thrifting finds in their lives. So they can say, “I did this myself”. Have a wonderful week my Friend! ❤️🇫🇷❤️

[@lynseysrecycledbliss1111]

Thank you so much!!😊

[@dianayavetz6286]

You are just fearless in trying new techniques for decorating and they always turn out great. Love the look of the completed room. Hope your son is doing well.

[@lynseysrecycledbliss1111]

Thank you! 😊 I love the way it looks. My son is on the road to recovery ❤️‍🩹

[@melaniemorris7757]

English Country is my favorite! Keep reworking rooms in my home to that style. Love some Ralph Lauren as well!

[@lynseysrecycledbliss1111]

So homely

[@LornaD_CottageNecessities]

I,too, am a fan of green, in all shades. Especially love the drapes. Architectural elements always elevate a room to new heights. A job well done. The color really enriched your tapestry art.

[@lynseysrecycledbliss1111]

Green really does make a room feel more welcoming, doesn’t it? 😊

[@elizabethskolnick7753]

It looks lovely. I checked your site 3 times on Friday for an update on your son & was so happy when you were able to catch your breath & let us know the surgery was over. I'll just keep my note on the computer for a while for extra support!

[@lynseysrecycledbliss1111]

Thanks so much. It’s been busy, but everyone has been so supportive ❤️

[@joannlessner1551]

Love the bird doorstop, so cute. I wouldn't have thought of putting the panels below the chair rail, what a good idea.

[@lynseysrecycledbliss1111]

lol I didn’t have enough to do more 😉

[@TarnishedTreasures1]

It’s a nice addition. I love moulding details in a dining room.

[@lynseysrecycledbliss1111]

I’m so happy with it 👍

[@rneustel388]

The ‘paneling’ and ‘wainscoting’ looks wonderful, I think. The paint color is wonderful with all your artwork and furniture. Very well done!!

[@lynseysrecycledbliss1111]

I'm so glad you like it, it was my favorite part of the design!😊

[@joyofthings]

A big warm midlander hug mi duck.Glad your son is on the mend.i love watching your magic.xx🐝🐝

[@Chris71151]

Absolutely beautiful, Lynsey! From here the tiles and molding do look real. And I love the green! One of my favorites as well. I’m so happy your son is doing well. Take care and have a great week ahead!💗

[@lynseysrecycledbliss1111]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@LCLW63]

Hi Liynsey, Glad to know your son is doing well. I absolutely love green, in fact am in the process of sourcing a green couch/sofa. It's a very calming & healing color. The dining room looks great. Had you not mentioned the "wonkyness" I probably wouldn't of noticed, but since you did, I could tell a bit, but you know it looks more like it is settlement in the house & not that it went on uneven. So it goes well with such an old home & just adds to the character. Great job as always!

[@lynseysrecycledbliss1111]

Thanks so much …….if this house settled anymore it would be on its side 😂lol

[@debbiem4836]

I love your moldings and the green paint is lovely. Your room looks gorgeous. Praying for your sons recovery.

[@lynseysrecycledbliss1111]

Thanks you. 🙏

[@tammyreneewalker5244]

That project turned out so good. I am falling in love with green.! My favorite combination is pink & green. 🩷

[@lynseysrecycledbliss1111]

Mine too! I’m a little obsessed with green 😉apparently

[@kathleens6837]

It looks lovely. Green is my favorite color and that shade is wonderful. I love the way you "make do".

[@lynseysrecycledbliss1111]

Thank you so much! It’s a habit of a lifetime

[@stacistaci6657]

I love the look of molding. It always makes a home look more upscale and interesting. Lovely job. I can understand the love of green. Its one of my favorites. I've noticed we like many of the same colors pink, green, lavender and purple. 😊 I noticed someone in the comment section mentioned you gave an update on your son. Im so happy about that. We all want your son to heal up well. Prayer works! I will look out on the community page for updates.

[@lynseysrecycledbliss1111]

Thank you very much! I’m very pleased with the outcome. My son is doing well. And every single prayer has helped 🙏❤️

[@lindascott5298]

Hi Lynsey, What a great find as the walls add another layer of cozy to the room!! They look great and make your home so cozy. I'm not English nor do I live in England but I adore English country decor and love green too as well as the collections and books you have!! The dining room looks holiday ready! Prayers again to your son on a full recovery as well as the family breathing a sign of relief when this is all behind him and family! Greetings from the Fox hunting area of Maryland!

[@lynseysrecycledbliss1111]

Thanks so much. I grew up loving everything America and always wanted to live in New England. 😉

[@catherinemathias3456]

❤ Looks like an English country estate to me!!! I love how you let us see that you are an everyday DIYer by just trying to see how your vision will work. Leaving everything in the video view!!! I do this so many times becausecI just want to make sure it is going to work. Love it!!❤❤❤

[@lynseysrecycledbliss1111]

lol I’m impatient and untidy and love to try new things sometimes they don’t work but mostly like this room they look great 😀

[@sandystafford5845]

Looks wonderful, I love the green paint. I live in an old house and nothing is square or level. Just part of the charm.

[@lynseysrecycledbliss1111]

I totally agree! Doesn’t make decorating easy 😀

[@lorrainebartlett4290]

Wow--that chair rail turned out amazing! Love the paint color. Well done!

Hi Lynsey and family. Love your sage green room. How beautiful it is definitely classic and elegant. Thoroughly enjoyed this decorating and how the room looks. I have a green sitting room and a red dining room so love bold colours. Its a typical autumn day in Sunderland today but does not stop me going out for a look in our charity shops and a coffee with friends. Hope your son is on the mend. Love from the UK 🇬🇧.

[@lynseysrecycledbliss1111]

Hi Tracey, I love the British charity shops I miss them I have spent many hours with my sister checking them out on my visits home, it’s one of my favourite things to do ever (wow I’m a cheap date) lol

I have loved the cottage look before people started saying cottagecore years and years and years ago. Back then it was considered somewhat cluttery, but comfortable. Today it's all the rage aww the fashion trends. Anyway, I have slowly built up my house like yours piece by piece. And I also feel the only way you can get that aged past down through the family is by thrifting. I do get so many ideas by watching your channel. Thank you

[@lynseysrecycledbliss1111]

Oh it’s so funny how they keep coming up with new ways to describe the same things. Glad you like my stuff 😉

[@CaponeCabin]

A hairdryer on those wrinkled tiles for the wainscoting will remove them. Straighten with your fingers, the heat makes it more flexible

[@lynseysrecycledbliss1111]

Thank you so much for the tip! 😊 I’m definitely going to try that ❤️

[@lynseysrecycledbliss1111]

You are correct 👍

[@Sword_and_Crown]

Birds of a feather 😮 I have the exact same peel and stick things ( you know from where…😂) for my bedroom and also wanted to paint it in a very similar green, because on the upper wall I have that peel & stick wallpaper of a William Morris print in orange and green. Unfortunately I might have to move out , so I don’t put it up and take it to the next flat. 😒I just put up a very British wallpaper in my entry way, the upper part hunting scene and below red linen ( self adhesive) , cost my about 300€ and I’m devastated that I now may have to move. The call came as I was literally glueing that last piece of wallpaper on… things happen! 🤷🏽‍♀️ Ps: I love the ghost candles on your windowsill ❤

[@lynseysrecycledbliss1111]

Oh that would piss me off,it sounds gorgeous, hey life is too short not to surround yourself with what you love. ❤️ your taste is exquisite 😘

[@anneette3455]

Hello Lynsey. Just wondering what green color are you using?? Every thing is lovely!

[@lynseysrecycledbliss1111]

I used Benjamin Moore Saybrook Sage.

[@AngelaCollins-j3b]

Did you use any eaxtra glue on the panels and trim? I would be willing to use this material for the cost, definitely.

[@lynseysrecycledbliss1111]

I didn’t need too, they are very sticky.
